359: Chapter 300 359: Chapter 300 “Hmm…”
The people of the Jiang Family had someone bring tea, pastries, and fruits, but Jiang Tang did not accept the tea brought by the Jiang Family members and waved the server away.
The server, thinking the guest disapproved of her tea-making skills, glanced nervously at the Jiang Family Head, the Patriarch, the three Elders, and the new Family Head who seemed handsome and amiable; could he be someone difficult to please?
Fearing family punishment, she stood still, not daring to leave…
“Family Head, what is this about?” Patriarch Jiang asked with a flattering smile.
“Don’t take it to heart; I just prefer to brew and drink my own tea…”
Jiang Tang said with a smile, and those who had tasted his tea all yearned to drink it again.
“Patriarch Jiang, perhaps you’ve never tasted Jiang Tang’s tea.
Why don’t we all give it a try?”
The Dugu brothers had blended in with everyone during this time and had already learned some language.
Although not very fluent, they were understandable to everyone.
“Oh, since the young man suggests it, then let us all try Master Jiang Tang’s tea.” The Patriarch had a hunch that anything offered by this Family Head would be extraordinary; he was eager to taste it.
All the other people in the living room looked forward with anticipation, especially those who had tried Jiang Tang’s tea.
The Jiang Family Head was one of them.
He had once had the fortune to drink tea brewed by Jiang Tang; ever since then, any other tea seemed tasteless.
The Jiang Family Head gestured for the servant to leave, and understanding the intent, the servant dutifully closed the door behind her, knowing there was no need for her to serve tea anymore.
“Well then!
I shall humbly make an attempt.”
Jiang Tang took out his teapot to make tea.
With so many people present, one pot of tea surely wouldn’t be enough, but he brewed quickly, using the Spiritual Water from the Spirit Field Space, and the freshly made tea’s aroma wafted far, making everyone’s mouth water with its fragrant scent.
Those in the living room felt that this tea was seldom found in The Mortal Realm; everyone in the Cultivation World who had smelled it considered it as Immortal Tea.
People outside the Council Hall were unaware of why such an enticing aroma was drifting out.
The fragrance seeping through the door crack had many salivating, and they meditated outside, cultivating with the scent of the tea.
With so many people performing this action, the worker who had left didn’t dare go too far, unsure if she might be called back in.
The people gathered outside also hoped to be summoned inside, which might give them a chance to receive Supreme Elixirs, Magical Treasures, or to be taught Cultivation Spells the first time.
They had never before seen such a young man who was a Great Power Holder.
If it hadn’t been for the stories circulating within the Martial World, one would hardly believe this man was only in his twenties, similar in age to them, though many here were older than him.
Yet such a man was a Great Power Holder, a fact that made countless envious men and women swoon.
The women of the Jiang Family, upon their first glance at Jiang Tang, were captivated by his charm, his dashing and handsome appearance, and his noble demeanor.
Many Jiang Family women thought, how could a man’s skin be so perfect, better than that of a woman, despite their great efforts and even purchasing Beauty Preserving Elixirs to maintain their skin.
With envious and enamored gazes fixated on the Council Hall, they were blocked from seeing inside by a closed door.
Similarly women, yet those from the nine great families were of higher Cultivation and carried themselves with an air above that of the Jiang Family women, some of whom felt a sting of inferiority, wondering why they weren’t born into such families?
The dashing Jiang Tang had become their family head, which made the men of the Jiang Family wish they could be him; with high Cultivation, a multitude of skills, and standout good looks, would they not have a harem of their own?
Jiang Tang, the handsome man who captivated countless women, also made many men envious and resentful, yet they had no choice but to begrudgingly admit his superiority.
Inside, Jiang Tang continued to brew and pour tea, bringing out jade cups from the Spirit Field Space that hovered before him as if held up by an invisible force.
This was a low-level spell that every cultivator, even those in the Qi Refinement Realm, could execute.
Jiang Tang’s actions weren’t about showing off; with so many cups and as the side table couldn’t hold them all while he still needed to prepare tea.
His jade cups resembled wine goblets rather than ordinary teacups.
These cups, produced from the Spirit Field Space, were made from the gleaming translucent stones found by the lake.
Jiang Tang brewed a pot of tea and poured it into the cups in front of him.
One pot couldn’t fill all the cups, so he needed to continue brewing tea.
The speed at which he brewed tea was fast, and as for the water he used, nobody knew where it came from; they only saw him brewing and pouring the tea without ever seeing him pour water into the teapot.
If it were someone who practiced water spells, it wouldn’t be hard to achieve, and for someone like Jiang Tang with so many spiritual roots, doing this was not difficult.
However, he wasn’t using water transformed from mist or air; he was using Spiritual Spring Water from the Supreme Treasure Lingtian Space.
There was a Spiritual Spring within Jiang Tang’s internal space, but he didn’t use the Spiritual Spring Water from his internal space, unsure if the supply in there would diminish with use.
The Spiritual Spring Water of the Primeval Treasure Lingtian Space was there for the using; whatever products he obtained there, he would quickly transfer to his own internal space.
Just like the Hell Palace, if he were to suddenly snap one day and die, the Primeval Treasure Lingtian Space would become someone else’s property.
Jiang Tang believed that even if he died, the space within him might still be his own.
But he didn’t know, if one dies, does the internal space still exist?
Jiang Tang had brewed three pots of tea.
The flame he used for brewing was neither the Xuanming Spiritual Fire nor the Qianji Fire; brewing tea was a trivial matter, he could simply use the Fire Spirit Technique within him.
This was something that those who had reached a certain level of cultivation could do without the need for external objects.
Jiang Tang had heard that upon becoming a Mahayana, one could tear through space and enter another dimension.
The rumor was just that, a rumor – he had never tried it in reality and didn’t know how to execute it, thus he refrained from carelessly using such spells.
He didn’t want to create chaos in the Cultivation World by misusing spells – it wasn’t about confusing people, but the potential disturbance to the air currents that might harm some.
Only under dire circumstances would Jiang Tang reveal that he had already become a Mahayana.
He wondered if, like before, someone would come seeking a challenge upon discovering his high level of cultivation.
There must be other Mahayana practitioners in the Cultivation World who were likely in seclusion in places unseen by ordinary people.
Like him, coming out to establish the Saint Sect – such individuals should be rare.
Jiang Tang thought less of it; he didn’t realize that by absorbing the power of the remnants of souls and the Rainbow Light of Immortal Qi, he had attracted the attention of Great Power Holders.
Those Great Power Holders in seclusion were drawn out, now in search of this Rainbow Light of Immortal Qi.
As Jiang Tang brewed tea after tea, everyone savored the fragrance without even tasting it yet, their expressions filled with craving.
Jiang Tang had long noticed everyone’s expressions, and a hint of an evil charm flickered across his mouth as his peach blossom eyes glanced over the group, and with a wave of his hand…
everyone just saw his sleeve move.
The floating jade cups in front of them flew toward each person, one cup of tea each.
The teacups flew at a decent speed and even as they hovered in front of everyone, not a single drop of tea spilled.
The clear tea in the white jade cups looked like translucent white jade itself, with a hint of green, resembling rolling jade beads.
Inhaling the aromatic scent, people extended their hands towards the teacups, first gently smelling the tea, taking a deep breath to absorb the tea fragrance into their bodies and feeling a more intense presence of spiritual energy flowing within.
It seemed as if everyone made the same movement, as if they were telepathically linked.
Their actions were nearly identical, taking a delicate sip to experience the flavor of the tea as it lingered in their mouths.
Everyone treasured their cup of tea as if it were a precious treasure laid out before them.
Elder Jiang of the Jiang Family, who had consumed supreme elixirs, and the others from the Jiang Family, felt that this cup of tea held almost the same power as a supreme elixir.
After drinking a cup, they felt as if the rich spiritual energy would advance their cultivation.
After brewing tea for everyone, Jiang Tang also helped himself to a cup and watched everyone’s treasured expressions with amusement.
As his cultivation increased, his space expanded, and the spiritual energy became denser.
The items produced in his space were of better quality.
It was unfortunate that this particular tea couldn’t be transplanted; he wished he could grow such a tea in his own space or even produce it on a large scale, but that was just wishful thinking.
