After hearing White Immortal say this, Master's eyes shifted. Before I could speak, he said first:
"White Immortal, meeting is fate.
You've treated my disciple, invited us to dinner, and now you want to give us something.
You're being so generous, so naturally, my disciple and I are generous people too.
What unreasonable request? Just tell us, White Immortal."
When Master spoke like that, I knew he had his eye on that tree root.
If we had said we would not accept a reward without merit, then taking someone else's treasure outright would have been hard to justify.
Taking it meant accepting karma and owing them a favor.
But if they made a request and we fulfilled it before taking the Spirit-Linked Old Cypress root core, then there would be no psychological burden.
White Granny smiled.
"Our Bai Family immortals descend the mountain, establish halls, take on spirit mediums, and heal the sick and save lives.
Yet in the end, we cannot save ourselves.
Now, Nine Granny is advanced in years and gravely ill.
She urgently needs a medicinal catalyst. If Fellow Daoist Gathering Fortune and young friend Du'e can obtain it for our Bai Family,
this old woman is not only willing to give the Spirit-Linked Old Cypress root to young friend Du'e,
but will also gift you a five-hundred-year-old wild ginseng.
Everyone in the Bai Family of Hidden Moon Forest will be immensely grateful."
Hearing that, I froze slightly.
They wanted us to find medicine?
What kind of medicine was rarer than five-hundred-year-old wild ginseng?
Besides, if even these wild immortals could not find it, could Master and I?
I already had a feeling that this would not be simple.
Everyone from the Bai Family, including Lu Feng, looked toward White Granny at that moment.
No one mentioned
