The man who arrived wore a blue robe, a jade seal at his waist. His features were handsome and sharply defined, his gaze clear and gentle.
His bearing was distinguished, like exquisite pearls and jade, yet as unfathomable as a Divine Lord.
"You flatter me far too much, venerable lord."
Jun Yao spoke:
"Mr. Mei's cultivation had reached a critical juncture, and he could not spare the time. I merely did this in passing. It hardly merits any praise."
After Jun Yao entered and was granted a seat.
Elder Tai Su did not hurry to inspect what Mei Gongxing had sent, but raised his eyelids instead.
He briefly looked Jun Yao over, then nodded slightly and said:
"It seems that old fellow Mei Gongxing does have a few tricks. Since you began cultivating the Whitewater Great Demon Spirit Cursing Secret Mantra, the draining of your lifespan was always going to be difficult to stop. That he could slow it further still shows that he truly put some effort into it."
Having said this, Elder Tai Su turned toward the woman in another seat. He merely pointed somewhere and smiled faintly, saying nothing more.
The woman had followed Elder Tai Su for many years and had been raised and taught by him since childhood. They had long understood each other's minds, far beyond what ordinary people could compare with.
She saw that Elder Tai Su was pointing precisely toward the Imperial Garden, and he had just mentioned the Whitewater Great Demon Spirit Cursing Secret Mantra and Jun Yao's lifespan.
And now, another fruit on the Ginseng Fruit Tree in the Imperial Garden had fully ripened.
With such an intention.
Presumably, he was hinting that she should go to the Imperial Garden, pick a Ginseng Fruit, and give it to Jun Yao
