Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

Gao Jue lay on the desk, his young body motionless, as the table was already covered with brush and ink waiting.

A group of people gathered eagerly in the courtyard, just waiting for Gao Jue to make a move.

The various sects of Huaizhou Prefecture really kept their word this time, each sending five Divine Gaze Realm cultivators. Although not many, combined they numbered fifty or sixty.

This number was quite considerable, and their sincerity was sufficient.

After all, their sects also needed defensive strength, Sikong Du understood.

But they didn’t understand!

Why do fifty or sixty Divine Gaze Realm cultivators have to wait here for a child to issue orders?

When asked, Sikong Du was unwilling to explain and just told them to be patient.

They waited for two whole hours, and just when everyone was getting impatient.

Heh~ tch~

Han Yu suddenly laughed, drawing everyone’s attention.

But he couldn’t help it; this pill was too hilarious.

Heart Flower Blooming Pill: Extreme joy damages the heart, extreme anger harms the liver, overthinking hurts the spleen, sorrow harms the lungs, fear damages the kidneys. After taking, the five organs are protected from emotional harm. Side effect: Different emotions will make different flowers bloom on the head.

This pill is quite cute indeed!

Swish!

Gao Jue, who had been still, suddenly spread out the paper and started writing, and soon a line of words appeared.

”He’s coming towards Huaizhou City.”

Sikong Du’s expression changed and he immediately wanted to head out of the city.

The person absolutely couldn’t be allowed in, or chaos would ensue in Huaizhou City.

However, in the next moment, Gao Jue started writing again.

”The person has entered the city!”

Han Yu glanced at Sikong Du, remembering when this guy sent more palace guards to the city gate just an hour ago, what did he say again?

Not even a non-local bird was allowed to enter.

And now, he had been proven wrong so quickly.

Sikong Du himself looked bewildered, how did they allow anyone to come in with dozens of palace guards?

Could they all be blind?

”Mr. Bai...”

Gao Jue opened his mouth as if mimicking dialogue, then wrote another sentence on paper.

”Heading north of the city.”

Mr. Bai?

Han Yu looked oddly, there seemed to be someone indeed able to enter the city without being stopped, known as Mr. Bai.

To the north of the city, wasn’t that where the inn he stayed was?

Sikong Du also realized but still looked incredulous.

Bai Bufen was actually a Corpse Refining Sect villain?

That would mean…

”Is there a friend from the Purple Sun Sect here?”

Sikong Du loudly called out to the courtyard.

There actually was, a thin, emaciated Daoist was pushed out.

It didn’t take long for the Daoist to shake his head, ”The Purple Sun Sect has never had a cultivator named Bai Bufen.”

They had been played.

Han Yu watched his expression shift from surprise to iron-blue, thinking to himself how the Corpse Refining Sect was getting more cunning.

They had already changed their appearance and become brothers with a guardian of a state.

”Han Yu, bastard… pill…capture him back.”

Gao Jue was mimicking speech again, though intermittently, and he could only write on paper with a flushed face.

”The person spoke too fast for me to mimic completely.”

No need to mimic, damn it, it’s directed at Han Yu.

Sikong Du’s iron-blue expression suddenly turned into a look of reproach as he looked at Han Yu, realizing this disaster was targeting him.

Did they intend to take Han Yu back for alchemy?

Was Bai Bufen an insider in the Corpse Refining Sect, wanting to eliminate the Corpse Refining lineage?

To take a pill with such terrible side effects himself and pull a group in with him.

Were they afraid the Corpse Refining lineage had no flaws, thus wanting to force a breakthrough?

Vice Tower Master Ling had already concluded that this person was unsuitable for the Fifth Tower of the Imperial Court due to too many downsides.

Even the potion people of the Light-shaking Tower concluded that although the pill was strong, the side effects on each taker became lingering flaws.

Just like the hundred geniuses of the Star Sect, no matter how strong, were fatal vulnerabilities in daylight.

If Zhao were in a life-or-death struggle, the opponent might throw valuables to him, and Zhao would die…

Han Yu felt he was the actual victim of this unwarranted disaster, someone emerged out of the blue, desiring his pills and his person.

It’s just absurd.

”Surround that inn over there and just kill him.”

Hearing the clear instructions, cultivators from various sects immediately spoke up.

”Right, isn’t this the perfect opportunity since he’s walked into the net himself.”

Many elders immediately agreed vocally.

”Do you think this is your own sect, fighting without consideration?”

Sikong Du retorted angrily, glaring at everyone.

Why leave so many palace guards outside?

It was to prevent intruders from entering the city; Huaizhou City must not become a battlefield, as a brawl among cultivators would result in massive civilian casualties.

”Lure him out of the city!”

The old voice of Gao Feng, who had stayed silent, suggested, not harming civilians was a guideline set by the Imperial Court, and also the conduct principle of the Fifth Tower.

”In a moment, the four of you go together to help.”

After Gao Feng finished speaking, he instructed the four guards beside him again.

The guards looked troubled. Before setting out, the Tower Master had given a strict order to stay close and not leave his side. If Elder Gao made even the slightest mistake, they’d be in big trouble when they returned.

”This is a military order!”

Gao Feng’s expression turned serious, and he said sternly. The guards could only respond with cupped fists.

As for how to lure the person out, Sikong Du already had an idea.

Han Yu watched him approach with a smile and spoke warmly.

”Brother Han, we’re friends, aren’t we?”

——

Bai Bufen was sitting at the bedside meditating, but he still couldn’t calm his mind.

A heavy feeling weighed on his heart, making him inexplicably restless.

It must be that damned guy.

It’s already halfway past midnight, and this guy still hasn’t returned?

Suddenly, a light footsteps approached, and his face lit up as he immediately got out of bed.

Creak!

As the door opened, Han Yu was seen strolling leisurely over.

Bai Bufen was initially so angry his teeth itched, then quickly changed to a smiling face.

The two met face to face, Han Yu twitched his lips slightly and greeted with a smile.

”Is Brother Bai back?”

”Yes!”

Bai Bufen’s smile was somewhat forced, for a moment not knowing what to say.

Han Yu felt the same way, Sikong Du had been persuading him for a long time just to get him to come over and coax the person out.

But how was he supposed to coax someone out in the middle of the night?

One stood inside the room peeking out, while the other stood outside trying to think of a way. Both fell into silence momentarily.

Finally, it was Bai Bufen who broke the silence first.

He opened the door inviting Han Yu inside.

After they sat down, Bai Bufen took out a small sword, a copper coin covered with spell inscriptions, and a shirt with a strange odor which he quickly threw into the corner.

This thing was ultimately rather embarrassing; it barely qualified as a magical artifact and had no power at all, and more importantly, it was too sweaty.

Han Yu looked at the items on the table, his forehead twitching.

Could this be what was left after undressing someone today?

”Um... Could these be exchanged for Brother Han’s pills?”

Bai Bufen pushed the two items towards Han Yu and asked.

Upon hearing this, Han Yu’s expression immediately became peculiar. Damn, was the pervert undressing someone in Huaizhou Prefecture because of me?

No, I’m not taking the blame for this.

Bai Bufen thought maybe something was missing. But he was determined to get the Awakening Ear Pill, otherwise he wouldn’t have gone through so much trouble.

A moment later, he gritted his teeth and pulled out another item from his sleeve.

This was truly his item—a palm-sized guillotine, entirely blood-red, even the blade edge had a dark red hue.

As soon as it was taken out, Han Yu felt the air around him seem to cool a few degrees.

This thing didn’t look ordinary.

Bai Bufen seemed extremely pained, yet he never took it out even when surrounded by enemies. It wasn’t so precious.

”A Magical Treasure!”

In the Sea of Consciousness, Glass peeked its head out and exclaimed happily.

Above magical artifacts, there are magical treasures, this Han Yu knew.

The Mo Family could forge magical artifacts, or items that Sixth Uncle Mo Xingzhi from the Mo Family had could be considered magical artifacts, only they were driven by spirit stones.

Aside from the Mo Family’s magical artifacts, those outside still remained driven by True Essence, which is why the Mo Family could dominate the Artifact Path.

As for magical treasures, there were various opinions in the Cultivator Realm, one being naturally formed by the world.

The difference between magical treasures and magical artifacts is that magical treasures contain spirituality, not only increasing power but adding many features.

Some can automatically lock onto enemies, fighting to death.

Others can autonomously protect their master.

Hmm, the more ferociously reputed ones are said to devour their masters by themselves...

Natural spirituality is one argument.

Another is artificially nurturing, transforming a superior magical artifact through various means to gradually turn it into a magical treasure.

Though the two arguments differ, they share a common consensus: magical treasures must be converted from superior magical artifacts.

Bai Bufen looked at the guillotine in his hand; this item had been bestowed upon him by a senior from the Corpse Refining Sect as half a magical treasure.

Moreover, he had never stopped nurturing it over the years, almost feeding it human blood periodically.

This was already his greatest treasure; he didn’t dare bring it out even when surrounded for fear of losing it.

”Brother Han, this item must not be used recklessly; once released, it won’t return until it sees blood, extremely troublesome.”

Bai Bufen feared Han Yu might lose it, admonishing repeatedly.

No wonder he didn’t dare bring it out when surrounded, if he couldn’t control it and the opponent ran away, it would be a waste of a magical treasure.

At this point, Han Yu was even considering letting the person go, really this guy had given too much.

”Exchange, exchange, exchange!”

Glass was already urging constantly in the Sea of Consciousness.

With a peculiar expression, Han Yu took out a pill, Bai Bufen took it without a second thought, and the three little items were directly placed in Han Yu’s hand.

Anyway, once I take him down, the items can be retrieved.

Bai Bufen comforted himself this way.

Han Yu coughed a few times, very embarrassed, then put the items into his sleeve and quickly moved them into the Sea of Consciousness under cover.

Time to get down to business.

”Brother Bai, how about a night tour outside the city?”
