Chapter 783 – Cloud Mist Peak (5)
Through her face, Grandmaster Rong Yun’s eyes seemed to have crossed over time and space. He seemed to be seeing a past event from a long time ago.
That female, so beautiful like an immortal goddess, wearing a purple dress. Her icy flesh on jade-like bones, with a beautiful complexion that was unmatched under the heavens.
In the pitch-black palace halls, she was cold but still stood there.
In front of her was a man wearing a strange mask, whose entire body was giving off a ruthless and overbearing aura.
“Thump!” A thick and heavy book flew towards this remarkably stunning woman.
“If you want to save him, within three days, know this book by heart!”
The stunning woman picked up that book, determinedly turned around and walked away.
Three days later, as before, she sat in the palace hall that was painted black.
The stunning woman stood composedly as she clearly recited: “…Chinese traditional medicine pellet’s level was always on its usage. Too much could be measured but could not be used. The poisonous medicinal herb Wu Chen….”
Grandmaster Rong Yun was immersed in his memories.
An unprecedented intoxicating tenderness appeared in his normally indifferent pair of eyes.
His pair of eyes stared fixedly at Su Luo motionless.
A touch of doubt appeared in Su Luo’s heart.
Even though Beautiful Teacher was looking at her, but she was very clear, he was seeing another person through her.
Only, who was that person? Capable of making Beautiful Teacher who was unmoved, had no desire, nor sought nothing, to give off such a tender expression on his face?
“…finished reciting.”
Su Luo, who had a dry mouth from reciting, finally gave voice to interrupt his thoughts.
Just standing there, she had stood for the entire morning.
She hadn’t stopped since she started.
For these several hours, she had continuously looped through the matter of her top lip touching her bottom lip.
Grandmaster Rong Yun was startled by Su Luo’s voice, immediately waking up.
The face that had always lacked emotions, now had a thread of startled expression flashing through it.
Immediately, he frowned, staring at Su Luo said: “Finished reciting?”
“Could it be Master didn’t hear it?” Su Luo turned the tables on him for a checkmate.
A touch of embarrassment streaked across Grandmaster Rong Yun’s eyes, only, the speed was very fast, nobody saw it.
Grandmaster Rong Yun picked up the teacup, drank a mouthful, and only then did he say to Su Luo: “To have memorized this book within three days, and to know it by heart so fluently in this world, is not limited to you alone. What do you have to be so conceited about?”
Su Luo surreptitiously shot him a glance.
Where was she being conceited? Why was it that the Beautiful Teacher would be so prejudiced against her?
However, Su Luo was already accustomed to Beautiful Teacher’s temper and didn’t take his criticism to heart.
Clearly today, Grandmaster Rong Yun was not in a good mood. He tossed out a sentence: “Within half a year, you must be promoted to Intermediate Apothecary.”
After he finished speaking, he immediately turned to go.
He only left behind a flabbergasted Su Luo.
With no homework left behind, how could she breakthrough on her own? Was there that many teachers? Wasn’t his role as a teacher too simple?
Just at this moment, Zi Ran smilingly said to Su Luo: “Little Junior Sister follow me, I’ll take you to the refining room.”
Su Luo’s brain whipped back, then asked Zi Ran: “You are also an Apothecary?”
“Merely Master’s medicinal helper and nothing more.” Zi Ran unconcernedly said.
“What level?” Su Luo asked, trying to get to the bottom of things.
“Merely Advance level, nothing more.” Zi Ran smilingly said.
Merely——
Advance level??
As expected, to serve by Beautiful Teacher’s side, every one of them was not simple.
Even in the capacity of Teacher’s medicinal helper was also an Advanced Apothecary. If he was to walk on this continent, he absolutely would be a target that every powerful family would fall over themselves to fawn upon.
“Let’s go, Little Junior Sister’s natural aptitude is astonishing. Your future accomplishments certainly won’t be ordinary.”
Originally, Zi Ran merely treated Su Luo politely on the surface, but ever since Su Luo showed this skill today, afterwards, he was shaken to a stop.
Able to memorize and recite《Records of Herbal Medicine》from beginning to end. In his lifetime, he had never seen someone do it.
Able to know《Records of Herbal Medicine》by heart and recite it backwards. He reckoned that even in the next lifetime, he might not necessarily see someone do it.
Aww now I’m even more curious…
I am as well. I shall strive to endure until the explanations come to pass.
Thank you for the chapters.
Thanks for the new chapter
I’m still waiting for her to do something that actually makes him show shock on his face. XD Like I don’t know, maybe make an advanced level pill as a beginner apothecary? XD
Thanks for the chapter!
Well, she’s previously made Intermediate Apothecary Pills as a Beginner Apothecary. Which has been considered impossible.
I can’t get whether he is acting like this because he thinks the fairy is nearby, or to toughen her up and make her independent , or he’s normally like this and doesn’t favour her in any way or he’s trying to test her.
I feel like it’s a mix of everything you mentioned. He is trying to push her to succeed and make sure the shadow spying on him doesn’t succeed
in addition to that it seems that hes recreating his own training with her
Thank you very much
Why do i get the feeling that once su luo surprises him with her skills, once su luo shows her true face, he would immediately take her in as his daughter and be all antagonistic towards prince jin.
*smirks* *grins* *giggles*
You got it… also Rong Yun doesn’t look much older than Nangong Liuyun and is also hot!
Omg….!?!? I was right–!? Btw thank you, thank you so much for translating the chapters!
I will just roll here in my bed with excitement then. I cant wait till prince jin finally suffers of having a love(?) rival or an obstacle of having su luo.
Not exactly a love rival more like an overprotective father who disapproves of his daughter’s boyfriend.
uh thanks for the chapters. oh what happened to the length apothecary.
do you mean Apothecary Leng? he returned to the capital. He doesn’t live there with Apothecary Rong Yun, after all.
Beautiful Teacher….
Wierd.
It doesn’t fit with the rest of the text. Are you sure it isn’t a translation error?
Wait wait wait. I remember now. The Grandmaster Rong Yun looks the same age as Nanggong Liuyun. And very handsome.
I get it now. But I don’t think beautiful fits. Men are always handsome (ikemen). Women are beautiful. Unless Rong Yun is as beautiful as a Woman. (Bishounen?)
Yep….the Chinese to English is Beauty or Bella…. he is a guy…I don’t want to use Japanese Bishouen… so Beautiful it is 😉
Thanks for the chapters!!!💘💘💘
PS: love the way SL call master beautiful teacher!!!
Why do I feel like SL’s the daughter of his beloved with another man and RY is in a love-hate relationship with her?
RY is in the role of loving and admiring Su Luo’s mother from afar… I believe she was already married when she meet Rong Yun.
Now that’s just sad… I’m reminded of Beichen Ying again :'(
Too true..
Exactly my thoughts..
thank you—!
yay! it’s finally one of my favourite arcs! -cheers- huehue! i like how smart su luo is, to know that he is looking at someone else through her! lol su luo checkmating him by asking if he didn’t hear, ahaha! well good, zi ran, you see su luo’s ability now, woo!
Awwww it’s actually really cute how he sees himself in her
Thanks for the chapter!
