"Ha ha ha ha, right you are, let's have tea, let's have tea."
The Old Dean and his companion picked up their teacups with smiling faces and clinked them together.
They then heard the sound of Grandma Yu's footsteps outside the reception hall.
"Jin Taoist, haven't you been holed up in the Alchemy Room these past few days, immersed in researching the Pill left to you by little Jin Xu? What brings you out to look at us two old geezers today?"
The gaunt elder stood up with curiosity at the entry of the Shui Clan Elder.
"Eh, Elder Geda, there's nothing worth seeing in two old-timers like us with our creaky arms and legs. Jin Taoist is known throughout the Nine Provinces for her talent in the Alchemy Dao. Coming out like this, she must have made some research progress, I'm sure."
The Old Dean first retorted the elder's comment, and then rose to his feet to praise Grandma Yu.
