919: Chapter 219: Who is Your Young Master?
Chapter 219
Guyan nodded, pushed open the door, and stepped out.
He saw the two black-clad old men outside and said, “Come in.”
The two old men were slightly startled upon hearing this, as they had not expected that the other party would directly invite them in.
They had thought they would have to wait for him to come out before stopping him to speak…
The two exchanged a glance and followed Guyan inside.
Upon seeing Mo Jiuli and the four old men, they only paused for a moment because they didn’t know how many people were inside; thus, they weren’t too surprised.
They simply assumed that there were originally six people in this private room…
“You two have been waiting outside for something?” Guyan asked, looking at them.
The two looked at the six people in front of them, not immediately discerning who was in charge.
Finally, the Third Elder gave a slight bow to Elder Bai and said, “We are here under the orders of our Young Master, who would like to meet you all and ask some questions!”
“Ask questions?
Young Master?
Who is your Young Master?” asked Elder Bai with confusion.
“This…
this…” The old man hesitated upon hearing these words, unsure whether to tell the truth.
“Let him come over,” Mo Jiuli spoke without raising her head, still seated.
“Alright, if you don’t want to talk, then don’t.
Bring your Young Master here!
But make it quick; we won’t wait for anyone if you’re late!” Elder Bai said.
“Yes, yes!” After the Third Elder spoke, he immediately went out to send a signal, then turned around and returned, standing beside the Fourth Elder.
Now the two of them finally understood that among the six people, the woman in the Red Dress was the master.
Soon after, a young black-clad man, accompanied by two other black-clad old men, walked in!
Catching the Third Elder’s gaze, the young man looked towards Mo Jiuli, his eyes flashing with astonishment and curiosity before he quickly composed himself and asked directly, “Miss, did you once take out a Nine Lives Pill?”
Could it be that the security of their underground trading market was so weak?
“No!” Mo Jiuli promptly replied.
Although the Nine Lives Pill wasn’t precious, she indeed no longer had any finished product!
Moreover, she hadn’t recently planned to refine the Nine Lives Pill…
After all, the scent of the Nine Life Flower, that was not something one could refine just like that!
“I genuinely desire the Nine Lives Pill, as it is a matter of saving a life!
I hope the Miss can part with it,” the young man said, showing no displeasure upon hearing her reply, and spoke again.
“I really don’t have any!” Mo Jiuli looked up at him and said.
“I know you have!” The man insisted.
“Hehe—really?
How come I’m not aware that I ever had a Nine Lives Pill?” Mo Jiuli replied with an amused retort.
“I smelled the scent of the Nine Lives Pill, and moreover, the Elixir was refined by you!” The young man stated emphatically.
As soon as his words fell, everyone present, except for Guyan, whether the four black-clad old men wearing masks beside the man or Elder Bai and his companions, all looked at Mo Jiuli in astonishment…
They had all thought that the Nine Lives Pill was something that Mo Jiuli had acquired by chance but had never considered that she had refined it herself.
How could this not shock them…
Especially Elder Bai, who was himself an Eighth-grade Alchemist and artifact refiner, was well aware of how difficult it was to become both an Alchemist and a weapon master.
Even if one had heaven-defying talent, it still shouldn’t be possible…
