"Lu Chuan?"
Liu Moling froze, then seemed to think of something. "Did Lu Chuan accomplish something remarkable at Azure Dragon Academy?"
"Sorry, it involves confidential matters. I cannot disclose it," the man in black said.
"I understand."
"I understand."
Liu Moling nodded, then said with deep emotion, "What virtue or ability does Moling possess to deserve all this today?"
"To Lu Chuan, I was merely the one who guided him onto the path of alchemy. All I gave him was a single First-grade Potion, yet I received such repayment..."
"Master Liu, you jest."
The man in black smiled. "Mr. Lu once instructed us that you and Master Meng may not be his masters in name, but you are masters in all but name. Mr. Lu specifically told us not to overthink it."
"Lu Chuan is a good child."
Tears shimmered in Liu Moling's eyes. Then she said, "Please wait a moment. I need to say a few words to my student."
"Please, go ahead."
The man in black turned around and covered his ears.
Not long after, Liu Moling came to the man in black's side and patted his shoulder. "Let's go."
On the road, inside a car bound directly for alchemist headquarters.
Meng Fan said with feeling, "I never expected this old man to bask in your glory as well."
"If you hadn't brought Lu Chuan before me, how could I have what I have today?"
"Hahaha..."
Liu Moling smiled rather smugly, then said, "You can't put it that way either. You also gave him a Spirit Gathering Potion."
"Truth be told, you're more qualified than I am to go to alchemist headquarters."
"At the end of the day, it was all thanks to Lu Chuan."
"Lu Chuan is a good child."
"Yes." Meng Fan nodded in wholehearted agreement.
