I Contracted All Ancient Divine Artifacts

In an instant, the thick white liquid was poured into the mouth and swallowed completely.

The body of the Vessel of Greed suddenly twisted, showing an expression of extreme agony.

The spout hadn’t completely closed, and from it, arcs of deep blue lightning occasionally emerged, crackling loudly.

Moreover, its body began thoroughly transforming into the same deep blue color as the Tribulation Thunder.

It expanded, contracted, and then continued to expand in a repetitive cycle.

However, the good news was that it actually swallowed the Tribulation Thunder!

”Is this even possible?” Elder Bing walked over, gasping for breath, and looked on in astonishment at the scene.

”Uncle Dong mentioned that the Vessel of Greed was a failed product of reforging the Demon Crossing Cloak, so if we judge it by the Tier Eight of the cloak, then the Vessel of Greed should also be positioned at Tier Eight.”

”After being weakened twice, the intensity of the Celestial Thunder might be fluctuating around Tier Eight.”

After listening to Han Zhan’s explanation and analysis, Elder Bing nodded in agreement.

”You managed to think of so much in such a short time. Truly impressive for the young!”

”No, I only thought of these things afterward. At the time, I had just one idea in mind: to fill up the Vessel of Greed.”

Elder Bing: ”???”

I take back what I just said. Elder Bing silently thought to himself.

The Tribulation Thunder was successfully swallowed by the Vessel of Greed, and the dark clouds above began to dissipate, marking the end of the thunder attracted by the elixir refining.

Chen Zui, who was struck to a crisp by the thunder, also gradually recovered under the powerful life energy and recovery power of the Wood Element. Although it was impossible to recover immediately, at least they could barely make out the shape of a human.

Holding the elixir in his hand, Han Zhan said, ”There’s no time to lose, let’s find Bai Su now!”

A few minutes later.

They reached the area where Bai Su was located.

Before them appeared the familiar theater stage, familiar spotlight, and the familiar silhouette of a woman in white.

Upon seeing the silhouette, Elder Bing noticeably paused.

”Elder Bing? Is there a problem?” Han Zhan asked with concern.

Elder Bing shook his head without speaking.

On the stage, the woman in white, Bai Su, who was performing, also gazed down at them.

Her eyes swept over Elder Bing lightly, then locked onto Han Zhan.

”Young man, you’re here again?”

”What, even after yesterday you’re not satisfied? What else do you plan to put your sister through today?”

Bai Su spoke without care, a path of white silk unfurled beneath her feet, and her pale, delicate feet gently tread upon it.

”Want to lick?”

Bai Su asked with a smile.

Han Zhan was speechless, his face full of black lines.

This Aunt Bai seems to have some special obsession with foot licking? Or is it that the character she’s playing now is some foot fetishist?

If it were just him, after yesterday’s scene, Han Zhan might have exchanged some flirty banter with Bai Su today.

But with Elder Bing beside him today, it wasn’t the best circumstance to act out.

Speaking of Elder Bing.

When Han Zhan turned his head, he was shocked to find that the always composed and calm Elder Bing now wore an uncharacteristically angry and severe expression for his age.

”Always asking people to lick feet, Bai Su, do you have any sense of shame?”

As soon as Elder Bing spoke, Han Zhan could hear the strong discontent in his tone, leaving him momentarily at a loss to understand the cause of Elder Bing’s anger.

Was it because Bai Su asked him to lick feet?

Is Elder Bing really that rigid? It wasn’t apparent back in Fulong City.

While Han Zhan was still wildly imagining, exploring, and digging in his mind, Bai Su on the opposite side laughed grimly after hearing Elder Bing’s reprimand.

”Li Tugui, a poor, wretched scholar like you dares to meddle in my affairs? What right do you have?”

”Do you deserve it?”

After hearing Bai Su’s words, Elder Bing uncharacteristically did not retort.

Seeing Li Tugui not arguing back, Bai Su, gaining the upper hand, relentlessly said, ”You came here with that handsome young man, and he’s the man Jin has taken a liking to, meaning you must be the one entrusted by Jin to bring him to Buried Sword City.”

”It’s been days, why haven’t you come to see me.”

”Are you too scared? Or, too ashamed to face me!”

At this point, Bai Su took another step forward.

Taking a large step, her loose white sheer fabric could not cover her round, fair legs. Due to years of performing on stage, her legs were flawless, tight, and immaculately smooth.

Anyone taking a first look at Bai Su would never associate her with an old woman.

”If it weren’t for you, Chen Zhongxia wouldn’t have died!”

”If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have gone mad!”

”Everything, everything, is because of you, Li Tugui!”

With each sentence Bai Su spoke, she stepped forward, and by the time she finished the third sentence, she was already at the front of Han Zhan and Elder Bing.

She stood on the stage, while Han Zhan and Elder Bing stood under it.

Bai Su looked down at Elder Bing, her anger seemed genuine as if she were about to incinerate Elder Bing to ashes with her fiery gaze.

Staring at him like this, Elder Bing’s lips moved a bit, yet he still didn’t open his mouth to defend himself.

At this moment, Han Zhan, who had been silent, suddenly took action.

Bai Su was just a few steps away, a minimal distance for a Tier Six Peak close-combat expert.

Caught off guard, Han Zhan closed the gap in an instant, wrapping his arms tightly around Bai Su.

Then, before Bai Su could react, Han Zhan raised his hand and forced a pale purple-cloud-patterned elixir into her mouth.

Forced to swallow, Bai Su covered her mouth, eyes wide, intending to speak.

As soon as she opened her mouth, the dreamlike pale purple starlight sprayed out, instantly filling the stage.

Han Zhan, Elder Bing, and Bai Su were all enveloped by this pale purple starlight, as if transported to a fantasy world.

”Elder Bing, what do we do next?”

Han Zhan’s swift action of shoving the elixir into Bai Su’s mouth changed the situation dramatically, and when Elder Bing looked up, he too was astonished by the scene.

”I don’t know.”

Don’t know? Isn’t that awkward? Han Zhan saw Bai Su glaring at him, seemingly furious at having the strange object forced into her mouth, and he smiled sheepishly.

”Um, Aunt Bai…”

Before Han Zhan could finish speaking, the purple starlight grew denser, obscuring all his vision.

The figures of Elder Bing and Bai Su also vanished within the purple starlight.

In the next moment, the purple starlight receded.

A voice sounded in Han Zhan’s ear:

”Still standing here in a daze? Tomorrow is the City Lord’s wedding day, move quickly!”
