Luobi arrived at the Wu family pharmacy, and Wu Yue asked again about the testing matters. Luobi picked and chose what to say, recounting the events.
After listening, Wu Yue pondered for a moment and tentatively asked, "Have you ever considered being an assistant to a potion refining master?"
Luobi's eyes flickered, a smile on her face, but a trace of ridicule passed unnoticed at the corner of her mouth. "I haven't thought about it. Don't even bring it up; it's impossible."
The Wu family is one of the major clans in the empire, naturally not lacking in talented masters. Among them are Wu Yue's niece, Wu Ying, and nephew, Wu Xia, the children of Wu Yue's brother, Wu Tang. Wu Tang is arrogant, impulsive, and easily swayed, and his appearance is unremarkable. However, his children are exceptionally outstanding.
Wu Ying, at seventeen, awakened her mental and soul powers at the age of two. Her talent level is high, and her attributes are quite good, being both fire and wood. Two years ago, she successfully passed the potion refining master examination with her solid skills and is currently a second-level potion refining master.
Wu Xia, at fifteen, is one year away from adulthood. He awakened his mental and soul powers at the age of three, with a high talent level and attributes of fire, wood, and water. He recently passed the master examination, and it is said that his performance was excellent.
As outstanding young members of the Wu family, Wu Ying and Wu Xia naturally do not lack assistants. However, after trying out one after another, none of them seem to be satisfactory. Currently, both of them have assistants who have been with them for some time, but they are always on the verge of being replaced. If a better candidate comes along, the Wu family will not hesitate to dismiss them.
As soon as Wu Yue mentioned it, Luobi guessed it was related to Wu Ying and Wu Xia.
After all, Wu Yue has no children of his own and has poured all his affection into Wu Ying and Wu Xia.
As expected, when Wu Yue saw her reluctance to be an assistant, he frowned and advised, "Don't jump to conclusions so quickly. You know that Wu Ying and Wu Xia have high talent levels, especially Wu Ying, who is already a second-level potion refining master. However, her current assistant is not up to par. Not only is his character questionable, but his awakened abilities do not match Wu Ying's. After all, it's rare to find someone who has awakened both mental and soul powers simultaneously."
Wu Yue smiled, "But you have awakened these two abilities, and we know each other well. How about it? Consider being Wu Ying's assistant. The Wu family has some connections on the Imperial Star, and we can get you a spot at the Master Academy. Spend two years with Wu Ying, and you might become a potion refining master yourself."
Wu Yue knew that Luobi's personality is not one to be controlled, and it's even less likely for her to be ordered around. But for the sake of his niece, he had to ask. Even if Luobi doesn't immediately agree, it's good for her to consider it.
Thinking about the current assistant with Wu Ying, Wu Yue shook his head. That person is truly no good, lazy, and greedy, with no discernment. The key is that he lacks real skills, and such an assistant is not very beneficial to Wu Ying.
Jiang Zhu, who was ostensibly processing medicinal plants but had been listening intently, seized the opportunity to interject, "That's right. Wu Ying has a good personality, and you two will definitely get along. Once you enter the Master Academy, with Wu Ying guiding you, it will definitely be better than following other masters. I've heard that many masters treat their assistants poorly."
Jiang Zhu listed several benefits to persuade Luobi, especially praising Wu Ying without reservation. During their idle chats, Jiang Zhu and Luobi occasionally mentioned topics related to master assistants, both knowing what it entails. However, at this moment, Jiang Zhu's words, driven by personal motives, were somewhat insincere.
