Cultivation—Stand above the Heaven Chapter 87

"Enough is enough. Xiaoya, Yaoting saved my life after all. You're supposed to call him brother," Sun Daobai said firmly, shaking his head.

"Jeez! He just happened to have saved you. It doesn't count, " Sun Xiaoya rebutted. She even refused to obey her grandpa. It seemed she looked down upon Yaoting to the core.

It was no wonder that Sun Xiaoya — a terribly upright girl — repelled Xu Yaoting with zero leeway for his despicable conduct. Her strong aversion toward him grew with time.

Despite the fact that Sun Xiaoya had such a bad temper, Wandong was head over heels smitten by her. Being an outspoken girl with admirable integrity, Sun Xiaoya had a strong appeal to everyone. Wandong had his heart set on having Sun Xiaoya as his sister the way he had Ye Mei, but he couldn't compel her to submit. Hence he simply responded with a smile.

"Mr. Sun, are you truly willing to reward Yaoting with anything you own to express your gratitude?" Wu Daozi gathered enough courage to ask Sun Daobai after a long contemplation.

"That goes without saying. I assure you, I'm a man of my words. Yaoting, please name anything you want, " Sun Daobai said straight off.

Hardly had Wandong said anything when Wu Daozi solemnly cut in, "Yaoting, may I ask you a favor?"

The earnestness in Wu Daozi's countenance struck dumb Wandong. And even Sun Daobai and Xu Wenchuan stared at each other at a loss.

Wandong hastened to say, "Master, why did you speak with such distant formality? I'm supposed to be as obedient as a disciple should be. Please just bid me do whatever you say. "

Wu Daozi shook his head and responded in distress, "It's so embarrassing. Being your master, I shouldn't have asked you to do anything for me before I teach you anything."

"Well, master, don't regard me as an outsider. Please tell me what you want, " Wandong asked with sincerity. Wandong was aware it must have been either the most precious or something Wu Daozi was desperately in need of. Otherwise, he wouldn't have demeaned himself like that.

Wu Daozi nodded in firm agreement and said, "I would like to have an Everlasting Rejuvenation Pill with your help from the Medication Sage."

"Everlasting Rejuvenation Pills?" Xi Wenchuan said, gasping in astonishment on hearing Wu Daozi's request.

The Everlasting Rejuvenation Pills were "one of a kind" pills, highlighting its remarkable function— bringing people back from death. However, Sun Daobai was the only one who was able to produce this kind of pills. And took a whole year to conclude the process of refining one pill at one time. Hence it was conceivable how precious the Everlasting Rejuvenation Pill was. Even Sun Daobai himself treated these pills as his priceless as his life and turned away anyone who came for the pills, be them aristocrats or the politicians. Then it was no wonder Wu Daozi had to ask Wandong to put in a good word for the pills. If it had been anything else, Wu Daozi could, by all means, do it himself, and he wouldn't have been turned away by Sun Daobai, given his status.

Though Wandong had no idea about the pills, he could tell they must be of great value based on the facial expressions of Xu Wenchuan and Sun Daobai.

"Grandpa Sun, you see my master has been soliciting the pills in such a humble manner. Please give them to him if you have any on you, " Wandong pleaded. He assumed Sun Daobai, a rather generous senior, would give them to his master, however, the pills were.
