Chapter 1025 - 713: Qinglan Island Master Li Shangyuan (3)

Duan Chaohai had no discernment whatsoever; he couldn’t even taste the difference.

Alright, over the past few days, he’s met with seven or eight guests, and not a single one could taste the uniqueness of Dongling Spring.

Actually, the so-called Spiritual Tea is just a name coined by Yang Zhenshan. The tea trees in the Spirit Source Land are irrigated with Spiritual Spring Water; if we talk about the effectiveness of these tea leaves, there’s not much to say. It’s just that long-term consumption of Spiritual Tea can provide effects similar to drinking Spiritual Spring Water.

Nowadays, the Spirit Source Land produces many varieties of Spiritual Tea, among which the best is Spiritual Dew Tea, made from the youngest leaves of the tea tree, and its production process is much more complex.

Next is the ordinary tea leaves, which are also made from relatively tender leaves processed in a similar way.

The worst is this Dongling Spring.

Dongling Spring is used for external sales, ordinary tea leaves are distributed as cultivation salary, while Spiritual Dew Tea is used for rewards.

Yang Zhenshan tasted Dongling Spring lightly and asked, "Who came just now?"

While he was entertaining Duan Chaohai, it seemed someone else had come to visit, hence his question.

"It’s the Skywind Sea Domain, the Island Master of Qinglan Island sent someone with a greeting gift!" Li Chang replied.

Yang Zhenshan widened his eyes, "It’s never-ending!"

Li Chang shrugged with a helpless expression, "There’s nothing we can do. The other party sent a greeting gift; we certainly can’t turn them away at the door!"

Yang Zhenshan sighed slightly, "These people, if they wish to go to the Dazhao Dynasty, they should be prepared for risks. Why bother with these useless things?"

Li Chang laughed, "You can’t blame them, after all, they’re not confident they can pass through the Stormy Sea Area."

"Enough, I’ll go play chess with the old sage!"

Yang Zhenshan preferred not to trouble his mind over those people; with that time, he’d rather play a game of chess with Xuanzhen.

...

The next morning.

Li Shangyuan brought Tang An to the entrance of Yang Zhenshan’s courtyard.

His visit was considerably more formal than the others, accompanied by a gift.

Indeed, as the saying goes, no one minds extra gifts than necessary. Yang Zhenshan looked at the gift brought by Li Shangyuan and couldn’t help but show more warmth towards him.

It wasn’t because he coveted Li Shangyuan’s gift, but rather that his gesture was good enough, far better than the others.

Both sides exchanged polite greetings, then sat down to have tea.

This time, Yang Zhenshan refrained from hypocritically saying something like "long have I heard of your great name."

Li Shangyuan observed Yang Zhenshan and said, "I’ve long admired the senior, and today I had the luck to meet you, it’s truly a blessing of a lifetime!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Zhenshan almost spat out his tea.

Looking at the gift, he decided not to say something about long admiration; little did he expect Li Shangyuan would express his long-standing admiration for him.

Li Shangyuan noticed Yang Zhenshan’s surprise and smiled, "Senior’s name as Thunder Lord is indeed widespread; even in the Skywind Sea Domain we’ve heard of your fame!"

"Uh!" Yang Zhenshan straightened his expression and smiled lightly, "Just a false reputation, not worth mentioning! Heh, not worth mentioning!"

So, they really have heard of his name!

Don’t forget, he also has the nickname Beihai Thunder Lord!

This title is widely known in the central and western parts of the Ten Thousand Miles Sea Domain, yet unexpectedly it’s reached the Skywind Sea Domain too.

Yang Zhenshan hadn’t expected to become so famous.

Actually, he misunderstood. His name is only circulated in the central and western Ten Thousand Miles Sea Domain. For Li Shangyuan to know his name is entirely due to his wide circle of acquaintances.

Li Shangyuan looked over at Yang Zhenshan, secretly thinking that indeed the reputation was not unfounded, Beihai Thunder Lord’s bearing was exceptional.

Previously, he didn’t know who Yang Zhenshan was, but these days, as Yang Zhenshan had met several people, his background had spread on Wind Island.

Others might not know Yang Zhenshan’s name, but Li Shangyuan had heard of it and had some understanding of Yang Zhenshan.

Not only did he know Yang Zhenshan was known as Beihai Thunder Lord, he also knew Yang Zhenshan had reached enlightenment.

Because he had a friend named Zhang Juhai.
