"If we weren't in the Kunlun Mirror, I could shamelessly ask Laozi for a golden elixir for you, but alas..."

The method to restore the memory has been found, but we also need to be able to get our hands on the item first.

Jiang Shiyuan was, after all, just a mortal. As one of the "Three Pure Ones," Laozi was not someone who could be easily approached, let alone asked him for elixirs.

Fengdu Ancient City, where the dead can enter but the living cannot, is not a place one can go to casually.

Thinking about this, Jiang Ziya realized that these two items were indeed quite difficult for his newly accepted apprentice. After pondering for a moment, he continued:

"The Queen Mother of the West is benevolent; there should still be some elixirs stored in the Jade Pool."

Even if a disciple is a bit of a hassle to accept, what can you do if they're a bit of a troublesome person? You can't just abandon them.

“Master, I’m already very happy to know how to restore my memories.” Jiang Shiyuan was very considerate. “You don’t need to worry, I can handle it myself.”

I can't afford to waste this favor with the new mentor I just met.

“According to you, all the immortals have only been reincarnated for two or three years,” Jiang Ziya asked patiently. “Do you know that it takes Laozi hundreds or thousands of years to refine a single batch of golden pills?”

When Jiang Shiyuan explained the antagonistic relationship between the Outer Gods and the Great Xia Gods, he also briefly mentioned that the Great Xia Gods had entered the cycle of reincarnation.

According to her, after a fierce battle, the gods of the Great Xia Dynasty transformed into nine national guardian steles, completely isolating the fog from the border. At such a time, the golden pills of the Supreme Lord Laozi must have been almost depleted in the war. How could she possibly deal with it?

“I… don’t really know.” Jiang Shiyuan certainly didn’t know that it was so difficult for Laozi to refine pills. “However, I can ask first. If I lose my golden pill, I have a little bit of a relationship with the Emperor of Fengdu. If I’m sincere, he should be able to help me.”

"My little apprentice has such abilities," Jiang Ziya exclaimed in surprise.

"Hehe, of course! If the intelligence is correct, I'll even call him uncle!" Jiang Shiyuan's tail was practically wagging.

Baili Pangpang had previously told her about a day trip to Fengdu in Anta County, so finding Fengdu wouldn't be difficult for her.

During the conversation, Lin Qiye returned carrying Andre, who was no longer able to resist. He handed him over to several female immortals who were waiting nearby, returned to his seat, calmed his breathing, and continued talking with Yang Jian.

Soon, a female immortal walked up to the Queen Mother of the West, who was sitting calmly, and whispered a few words in her ear.

The Queen Mother of the West didn't change her posture at all; she merely glanced at Lin Qiye, a hint of a smile appearing in her eyes.

Jiang Shi was pleased to see Lin Qiye return safely. He then chatted with Jiang Ziya for a while, briefly revealing some information about the situation in the Great Xia Dynasty.

As the Peach Banquet drew to a close, she finally mentioned the ultimate goal.

"Master, let's take a video to remember this moment." As she spoke, she took out her phone.

"With video evidence, I can not only admire my master's face from time to time, but also avoid the possibility that you will turn your back on your dear disciple after I leave."

"What is a video?" Jiang Ziya had never seen such a rare thing as a cell phone before, and was quite puzzled.

"How do you explain it? It's probably a kind of image-recording stone that ordinary people can use?"

Jiang Shiyuan gave a rough analogy, placing his phone on the stone platform, leaning it against the vase, opening the camera app, and pointing the front-facing camera at himself and Jiang Ziya.

"Master, I've started recording. I'll say what you're going to say and you'll read it."

"can."

“I am Jiang Ziya, and I am willing to be Jiang Shiyuan’s teacher.”

"...?"

Jiang Ziya almost ripped a strand of his flowing beard off.

“Master, read it.” Jiang Shiyuan blinked. “You don’t want to leave any evidence, do you? I won’t allow it.”

You are most likely just a wisp of divine thought right now, but even if you are just a divine thought, since you have accepted me as your disciple, you must take responsibility!

Before Jiang Ziya could even speak, he was severely reprimanded, leaving him feeling utterly helpless.

"You stubborn brat, your words and actions are often unpredictable, that's not good."

“Really? Few people say that about me.” Jiang Shiyuan indicated that she had always received positive feedback.

She thought for a moment, then cautiously pointed to her phone, "So... are you still reading it? It's still being recorded."

Jiang Ziya turned to look at the screen, remained silent for a while, and then slowly spoke.

“I am Jiang Ziya, and I am willing to be Jiang Shi’s teacher.”

When Jiang Ziya mentioned Jiang Shiyuan's name, he clearly paused for a moment.

“We are currently at the Peach Banquet. Jiang Shiyuan is exceptionally intelligent, and I took a liking to her at first sight, so I decided to take her as my apprentice and even wanted to give her a big red envelope as a token of my acceptance of her as an apprentice,” Jiang Shiyuan continued reading.

Jiang Ziya hadn't expected there to be more. Faced with this string of rather shameless words, the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily. Fortunately, his composure was quite good, and he finished reading it according to Jiang Shiyuan's wishes.

Jiang Shiyuan knew when to stop and didn't make things difficult for the old man, and they took many more photos together.

It can be seen from all angles.

This was the first time Jiang Ziya had encountered such a person, and he actually went along with her.

"Thank you so much, sir. Now you definitely won't be able to renege on your debt after we get out of here." Jiang Shiyuan happily put her phone away, finally feeling a sense of gratitude towards this cheap but reliable sir.

By this time, the immortals had almost finished eating all the peaches they had, and the celestial music had become gentle and soothing. This signified the end of the Peach Banquet, and many immortals thanked the Queen Mother of the West with satisfaction and took their leave.

Jiang Ziya did not intend to stay long.

"Master, is there anything I need to tell you? I have friends who want to come with me, so I won't go with you. I'll come find you after we get out." Jiang Shiyuan spoke with a reckless honesty.

She didn't know what kind of disciple Jiang Ziya liked, so she might as well just be herself.

Jiang Ziya certainly didn't intend to leave with this exceptionally unruly disciple. Even if he wanted to fulfill his responsibility as a master and teach him wholeheartedly, he was now just a silhouette. Jiang Shiyuan should go find the real him.

After offering a few words of encouragement, Jiang Ziya left with a brisk pace.

As she watched the slender figure disappear, Jiang Shiyuan breathed a sigh of relief. The old man was quite old-fashioned; he must have been quite shocked by her today.

However, she was under a lot of pressure. To put it another way, it was as if she was abusing the elderly.

People are more prone to making mistakes when they are relaxed.

Jiang Shiyuan, smelling the lingering fragrance of the immortal fruit, leaned lazily against the stone platform, waiting for Lin Qiye, Yang Jian, and Nezha to finish their conversation before joining him.

She leaned on it with considerable force, and the vase that was originally placed properly on the table was affected by her leaning, causing it to wobble and almost fall over.

It seems only natural to reach out and catch a precious piece of porcelain that is about to be smashed to pieces.

"Huh? Why is it a real vase?"
