Chapter 1070: I Choose What I Like (4)
“Is the Golden Cauldron Tree you’re talking about those short and small trees in the cave?” Yun Feng asked, describing the Golden Cauldron Tree very awkwardly. The Third Elder immediately became suspicious in his mind after hearing that. Perhaps she really didn’t know?
“Yes, they’re indeed the ones in the cave.”
“I did see those trees back then, but I didn’t pay much attention to them. Those trees had already been dug up by someone when I arrived at the cave.”
What Yun Feng said made the Third Elder’s eyes light up. Rather than believing that Yun Feng was the person who poached the Golden Cauldron Trees, the Third Elder would rather believe that it was someone else. After all, Yun Feng shouldn’t know the Golden Cauldron Tree at all with her experience and age, let alone the relationship between the Golden Cauldron Tree and the Golden Cauldron Fluid! That was indeed the truth. Without her master’s notebook, Yun Feng really wouldn’t have known what the Golden Cauldron Fluid and the Golden Cauldron Tree were and she might have missed them. The notebook her master left for her could be said to be a precious treasure.
“Look! How can this girl be someone who poached the Golden Cauldron Trees?” The five elders couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief after hearing that. The few elders all looked relieved. Right! How would a little girl know about the Golden Cauldron Tree?
“Did that person leave anything behind?” The Third Elder asked again. Yun Feng pointed at the bottle in the Third Elder’s hand. “They left that potion. That’s a master-level three-star potion. With my current level, it’s impossible for me to make it.” Indeed, Yun Feng couldn’t make it without Meatball’s help, but if Meatball was here, it would be easy.
“You said this was a three-star master potion!” The Third Elder was shocked and he immediately held the bottle in his hand tighter. Yun Feng nodded. “It’s indeed a three-star master potion. I wanted to put it away, but I met Hua Ling and the others. Hua Ling suggested that I could get a favor from you, so I gave it away.” What Yun Feng said removed all the doubts in the Third Elder’s mind. So, when Hua Ling went back on her words, this girl was also enraged. This made sense.
“Humph! That Hua Ling really dares to say anything. A favor from you?” The Fifth Elder grunted. The Third Elder glanced at him and didn’t say anything. All his guesses about Yun Feng in the past were overturned. He now believed that an unknown person had once appeared in that cave. That person dug out ten Golden Cauldron Trees and that person also knew how to produce the Golden Cauldron Fluid!
Seeing that the Third Elder wasn’t staring at her anymore, Yun Feng knew that she had passed safely. She thought that she must be more careful when she used the Golden Cauldron Fluid in the future. If these few old men discovered her, it would be difficult for her to explain.
“If someone else did it, the hopes are even slimmer.” The Second Elder said with a heavy tone. At this moment, Yun Feng asked, “Elders, what exactly is that Golden Cauldron Tree for?”
“It’s nothing. You don’t have to ask about this.” The First Elder waved his hand and refused to talk about this moment. Yun Feng also smiled and nodded, not asking anymore.
“Let’s talk about this later. Feng Yun, your talent and strength are pretty good. We all want to take you in as our disciple. I wonder if you have any intention?” The First Elder said with a smile and changed the topic, turning to the highlight of the day.
“Elders, I’m afraid you overestimated me.” Yun Feng smiled. The elders all chuckled. “This girl is very humble and low-profile.” The Fifth Elder burst into laughter and winked at Yun Feng. “Kid, if you’re a summoner, you must join with me.”
Yun Feng smiled and didn’t say anything. The Fourth Elder couldn’t help but roll his eyes. “Fifth Brother, are you crazy about taking in disciples? I know you don’t have many disciples, but you can’t just ask any random person you meet if they’re summoners. How can there be so many summoners in this world?”
“Don’t talk. She hasn’t said anything yet,” said the Second Elder. The few elders all looked at Yun Feng and waited for her to speak. Usually, the elders picked their disciples. How would there be five elders sitting in rows for a disciple to pick? Right now, the five elders were sitting in rows, waiting for Yun Feng to pick.
“The Third Elder and I are both warriors, the Second Elder and the Fourth Elder are mages, and the Fifth Elder is a summoner.” The First Elder said with a smile as he looked at Yun Feng with anticipation. Even though the Third Elder knew that he had no chance, he couldn’t help but look forward to it a bit.
Yun Feng chuckled. She knew that she couldn’t be too pretentious. She should know when to stop. “I’m a summoner, so I certainly have to join with the Fifth Elder,” said Yun Feng casually. The faces of the other four elders froze at first, then became disappointed. In the end, they began to light up.
“Hahaha! I knew it. This girl is a summoner! Haha!” The Fifth Elder smiled happily. Being able to get a disciple like Yun Feng, the Fifth Elder was immediately delighted. Flowers were almost blooming on his face.
“She’s a summoner… How rare.” The First Elder nodded. Even though he felt regretful in his mind, it wasn’t much. The Second Elder and the Fourth Elder were different. After all, summoners and mages didn’t conflict. Summoners were also mages. It was fine for Yun Feng to come to them, but… Ah!
“Alright, alright! This girl is my disciple. Don’t even think about it!” The Fifth Elder immediately said when he saw that the Second and Fourth Elders didn’t seem to have given up. The First Elder chuckled. “She said she wants to be your disciple, so the others certainly don’t have a chance.”
The Second and Fourth Elders could only sigh helplessly and felt that it was a pity. Even though the Third Elder sat there without batting an eyelid, he was greatly shocked in his mind. Feng Yun’s strength was comparable to Tian Kui’s. Tian Kui was a Grade-8 King! So, she was a King-level summoner! Plus a master-level pharmacist! Such a disciple was truly unique in the world! Whoever got her would have a flower blooming in their hearts!
“Kid, tell me which element you are.” The Fifth Elder asked with a smile. Yun Feng was a bit worried. Of course, she couldn’t tell them that she was a five-element summoner. Perhaps these five old men wouldn’t believe her even if she told them. She had contracted three Magic Beasts right now. Should she tell them all or be conservative?
