284: Chapter 233 284: Chapter 233 Jiang Tang was hugged by the alchemists one by one, and then they lifted him up together, tossing him high into the air like a ball, catching and throwing him again and again.
Their hopping and jumping expressions made everyone laugh.
For the first time, Jiang Tang felt like a hero; He did not let their joyous mood extinguish, and he was not annoyed by being tossed around.
He just smiled.
With his current level of cultivation, he could have used his martial strength to stop them from getting close, but he didnât want to create tension.
After they had thrown him a few more times, he floated down from the air and stood steadily on the other side.
âI wonât often be here in the future.
You all need to practice harder.
Youâve seen that I can refine five pills with the alchemy furnace.
You should aim for this goal in your practice.
Donât produce any more mid-grade or low-grade pills; you must improve the quality of the pills,â he instructed as the Hall Master, and the alchemists nodded their heads in respectful acknowledgment.
Su Feifei had already memorized those techniques, having watched Jiang Tang teach alchemy several times, firmly engraving the memories in her mind.
This was the first time Su Changâan had seen Jiang Tang teaching alchemy and refining pills in front of him, and he too had committed the methods to memory.
As Young Master, he did not need to refine pills himself, but skills never burden their bearer.
Should a day come when he had no pills and no resources, he could use what he had learned to create his own.
The men and women from each family, those without the talent for alchemy, also memorized the techniques.
Even if they didnât practice themselves, they could teach their friends and relatives.
Having finished his arrangements, Jiang Tang was about to leave when he glanced at his brother Su Changâan.
Their reunions were not easy; it might be a long while before he saw him again.
He wanted to drink with his brother, to share tea, discuss the past and present, and enjoy their happy moments together.
In fact, he remembered a sword manual from within his space.
He hadnât studied swordsmanship, but he had instantly memorized it.
Skills can come in handy in unexpected ways, and he could use the techniques from the sword manual with other magical treasures.
âQianchen, Iâm not sure if youâve found a suitable sword manual for your level at Ocean Wheel Realm?â
Smiling, Su Changâan shook his head with a sigh, âOur familyâs lineage has lost the higher-realm sword manuals.
Above Ocean Wheel, there are no suitable manuals left for me, so Iâve had to make do with lower-level techniques.â
âJiang Tang, are you asking me because you have a sword manual to offer?â Su Feifei caught on to Jiang Tangâs question to Su Changâan, her eyes twinkling with the thought that just as Jiang Tang had given a saber technique to the Lin Family, he might have a high-level sword manual for Su Changâan.
âOh, Jiang Tang, do you have a sword manual?â Hearing his cousinâs words, the warmth drained from Su Changâanâs usually serene face, replaced with joy and surprise.
âYes, itâs an ancient score I found in a sealed space.
Iâm not sure if it suits you, but I forgot about it when I saw you earlier.
Today, feeling reluctant to part ways, I remembered I have this manual,â Jiang Tang said, taking out a jade slip from his storage bag.
He had copied the secrets of the manuals he found in the space onto blank jade slips, as he never gave away the originally found manuscripts.
It wasnât that he begrudged the manual itself; rather, he feared such items, if known about, could reveal secrets.
Even with brothers, he couldnât reveal his secrets.
In the Cultivation World, everyone must have their secrets.
Even among ordinary people, secrets must be protected.
If you canât protect yourself, how can you grow strong?
Taking the jade slip, Su Changâan pressed it to his forehead to inspect it.
Surprise and excitement crossed his face; the manual was exactly what he needed.
âJiang Tang, thank you, thank you for the generous gift.
With you as my brother, I truly am fortunate.
With this manual, Iâll have my swordsmanship,â Su Changâan expressed his gratitude.
âQianchen, we brothers need not be so formal.
Itâs only right for me to give you the manual.
Together weâll grow stronger.
Maybe one day weâll ascend and strive in the Heavenly Realm as immortals,â Jiang Tang responded.
âExcellent, excellent!
To ascend would be a dream come true.
With you, my brother, I have this hope,â Su Changâan agreed.
âWell, we brothers donât have many chances to gather, so since weâre together now, why not find a place to have a drink, what do you say?â Jiang Tang suggested.
âOf course, to your courtyard, brother, and bring out some good wine for us,â Su Changâan said, signaling with his hand.
They left the Alchemy Hall together with Jiang Tang following him.
Regardless of whether it was a brothersâ gathering, the men and women who came with Jiang Tang also followed.
âBrother, how about trying my good wine after youâve tasted my good tea?â Jiang Tang proposed.
âIâd love nothing more!
Iâve been thinking about your tea, and Iâd like to savor your wine even more,â Su Changâan responded as they all arrived at his spacious courtyard.
Unlike most in the Cultivation World, who didnât care for flowers, his place was filled with precious Spirit Grass and Spiritual Flowers, indicating they were far from ordinary.
With rockeries, pavilions, towers, and chambers, Su Changâan did not wish to drink in his room.
He found enjoying wine in the pavilion and appreciating flowers in the garden far more elegant.
