CHAPTER 733: CHAPTER 743: CAN AGREE TO ANY CONDITION?

"He, he is the Chief Alchemist here? He is clearly a disciple of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, coming here to learn Alchemy, to study Alchemy from the Chief Alchemist of Longevity Hall." Qiuxiang stuttered in emphasizing Chu Feng’s identity.

Xiong Guansui’s expression kept changing, aside from shock and surprise, there was also a hint of panic.

There was still room for maneuvering.

But now, she simply had to debase herself, pointing fingers and showing off her identity and knowledge the moment she entered the inner residence. Even more, without regard for anything, she ridiculed Chu Feng with cold mockery and sarcasm.

How can she have the nerve to ask him to help her sick mother now?

"Miss Xiong, didn’t you have something to ask of Alchemist Chu? You better hurry, Alchemist Chu is a very busy person, he might not stay in the Imperial City for two more days."

The Eight Virtuous Princes were indeed kind, knowing that Xiong Guansui wanted to ask Chu Feng to save her mother.

He reminded her on the side, urging her to earnestly implore Chu Feng.

The Eight Virtuous Princes had already asked Chu Feng for a favor and naturally didn’t feel it was right to ask for more.

One must know when to advance or retreat in affairs, to have a sense of measure, so as not to become disliked by others.

If one assumes they have some friendship with Chu Feng and tries to handle everything, making decisions on behalf of Chu Feng, it may very well destroy the relationship between them.

In the future, Chu Feng will probably distance himself from him.

The Eight Virtuous Princes were indeed sharp, knowing the weight of matters. Simply introducing Xiong Guansui was harmless.

"Uh... this..." Xiong Guansui’s pretty face turned beet red, as if it had been stained with chicken blood.

Instinctively, she looked up at Chu Feng, only to find that Chu Feng was watching her with a teasing look in his eyes.

Suddenly, a towering rage surged in her heart, with a keen sense of humiliation.

"This bastard, he must be enjoying the sight of this young lady’s embarrassment! His heart must be brimming with smugness!" Xiong Guansui recalled the wild and arrogant words she had spoken in front of Chu Feng.

Now she wished she could swallow them all back.

Alas, spilt water cannot be retrieved; words once spoken cannot be taken back.

Sometimes, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

Before coming here, Xiong Guansui was full of confidence, thinking she could finally invite a formidable Pill Master to treat her mother, with no need to beg Chu Feng.

Once her mother was cured, she would certainly slap Chu Feng’s face hard.

She would spread the word everywhere, letting everyone know that the Eternal Life Pill Master was nothing much, after all.

Reality gave her a harsh slap in the face.

As Chu Feng said, the world is indeed very small. She had gone to great lengths and used the connection of the Eight Virtuous Princes, only to finally meet the Chief Alchemist of Longevity Hall.

Before meeting him, there was always some hope.

Now that she has seen him in person, she fell into complete despair.

Xiong Guansui, who is Heaven’s Chosen Daughter, probably has a talent that is even more formidable than that of Si Huang from the Ten Thousand Sword Sect.

After a brief struggle between her pride and her situation, she made a decision. What mattered face?

As long as she could save her mother, what did it matter if she had to lower her head to this bastard?

Her mother’s illness couldn’t be delayed any further, or she might regret it for the rest of her life.

With this in mind, Xiong Guansui put aside her pride, and all of her arrogance vanished.

"Chu Feng..." Her voice was a bit hoarse. "I would like to ask you to treat my mother’s illness, whatever condition, I can agree!"

This time, Xiong Guansui learned her lesson and lowered her stance, humbly imploring Chu Feng to help.

"Why should I agree to you?" It was Chu Feng’s turn to hold his head high arrogantly, flaunting his presence before her.

The Eight Virtuous Princes, wise with age, also acutely sensed that there might have been past interactions between this young man and woman.

And by the looks of it, there might have been grievances born.

At this moment, he intelligently chose to be like a stone sculpture, hearing and asking nothing, letting the two young people negotiate and solve it themselves.

Anyway, he would absolutely not intervene.

"You..." Xiong Guansui’s teeth were chattering with anger, and she truly wished she could bite Chu Feng to death.

She had already lowered her stance so much, condescending to beg this bastard.

But he was deliberately making things difficult.

One must know, she was Heaven’s Chosen Daughter, and the young talents who wanted to pursue her were enough to queue up and circle Vermilion Bird Imperial City multiple times.

Other young masters and rich heirs would flock to her at a mere word from her, eager to court her favor.

But this bastard had the nerve not to give her any face at all.

Doesn’t he know that she is a beautiful girl?

"I said it, no matter what conditions, I can agree to them!" Xiong Guansui took a deep breath, suppressing the towering anger in her heart. No matter how much Silver or Spirit Stones, or other treasures Chu Feng wanted, she would agree.

"Hmm, let me think, what conditions would be more appropriate?" Chu Feng showed a thoughtful expression.

Then he stared at that beautiful face of Xiong Guansui, his eyes brightening, "You have a nice face and a good figure too. How about you become my maid."

Xiong Guansui could never have dreamed that Chu Feng would propose such an excessive condition.

"You scoundrel..." Her Sword Essence surged frightfully around her, and a terrifying Killing Intent emanated from her.

"Miss Xiong, if you’re thinking of taking action, I advise you to think it through. Otherwise, don’t expect me to show any mercy. Anyone who comes to my Longevity Hall is a guest and must follow the rules of a guest. It’s not good to try to overshadow the host," Chu Feng said as he secretly clenched several Sixth Grade Talisman Pills in his hand.

If Xiong Guansui dared to make a move, Chu Feng would definitely turn her into a madwoman in an instant.

"You set the conditions yourself. If you don’t wish to agree, then forget it! You may leave," Chu Feng waved his hand, shooing her away.

"My miss is worth a thousand pieces of gold, how could she be ruined by a beast like you? If you want a maid to order around, I’ll do it for you!"

The maid Qiuxiang stood out angrily, glaring at Chu Feng.

She indeed possessed a spirit of sacrifice.

Chu Feng looked at her with an extremely critical eye.

"The face isn’t bad!"

Hearing Chu Feng’s first comment, Qiuxiang’s expression eased a little. All girls like to be complimented.

"It’s a pity though, regarding the figure, compared to your miss, it falls far short. There’s nothing to speak of, a vast plain, to get two points out of ten would be good enough."

"You... you have no shame..."

Qiuxiang’s round apricot eyes blazed with fire, wishing she could devour Chu Feng.

"Heh heh, I’m merely telling the blunt truth. Besides, not only is your figure extremely poor, but your demeanor also reeks of a servant’s air. Someone like you absolutely lacks the qualifications to be my maid," Chu Feng remarked, his words as sharp and scathing as they could possibly be.

But Qiuxiang had brought this upon herself.

A mere maid, daring to act haughty in front of him – if he didn’t put her in her place, wouldn’t she become too arrogant?

Qiuxiang was so infuriated by his remarks she was about to explode in rage and desperately wanted to fight Chu Feng to the death.

But she was restrained by Xiong Guansui.

Xiong Guansui’s expression had turned icy, with no hint of emotion, as she stared at Chu Feng and said, "If I agree to become your maid, will you make a move to save my mother?"

"Hmm!"

Chu Feng nodded.
