Although this pill was indeed very suitable for himself, Zhou Muyun still did not dare to accept pills casually.
Jadegreen Manor was now rebuilt, but it lacked its former glory, and the attitude of the four sects toward it remained ambiguous. Now that Wang Miao had delivered a pill, he feared there were ulterior motives.
"Sect Master Wang, this medicine is too precious; this junior cannot accept it." Zhou Muyun reached out and gently clicked the box lid shut.
"Courtyard Master Zhou, please do not refuse." Wang Miao raised a hand in a vague gesture, lifted his eyes, and spoke with a sincere tone, "This medicine is given on behalf of Old Tu to thank you. Only when you accept it will Wang feel at ease, and I believe Old Tu's spirit in heaven will also find solace!"
Since Wang Miao had put the matter in such terms, it was naturally not fitting for Zhou Muyun to refuse further.
He stood up, straightened his robes, and bowed solemnly, "Then this junior will not decline the courtesy!"
"That's right!"
A smile appeared on Wang Miao's face, "Precious medicine suits a heaven-gifted prodigy, it couldn't be more fitting!"
"Sect Master Wang flatters me unduly!" Zhou Muyun accepted the jade box, cupped his fists in a courteous manner, and said, "Jadegreen Manor is now waiting to be restored in all respects, yet I've troubled you to make a personal trip."
"What is a mere trip?"
Wang Miao waved a hand, his smile fading, "The foundation of Jadegreen Manor is less than one in ten of what it was; this position of mine as manor master is quite a hot seat!"
Although Jadegreen Manor had been rebuilt, compared to the four sects, the gap was already vast. Yet its territory was exceedingly lucrative!
