Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?

Chapter 19: Chapter 18: It Lives

Han Yu retreated all the way back to the place where he had fallen at the bottom of the cliff and finally sat down cross-legged.

The Glazed Bottle finally quieted down, and a mysterious yellow aura continuously exhaled from the bottle mouth, wrapping around the bottle body.

Visibly, every wisp of aura approached the bottle and then entered it, after exhaling it was absorbed by the bottle body.

After sitting dazed for a two-hour period, the Glazed Bottle finally stopped absorbing and instead retracted all the remaining aura scattered outside.

Poof!

It was like burping, exhaling a mass of yellow aura from the bottle mouth, which rose to his mind and immediately blossomed, turning into wisps of flames.

Soon, the flames gathered into a sea of fire, burning fiercely.

Oh no, my brain is on fire.

Han Yu’s expression changed, his heart filled with panic.

He jumped up to put out the fire, then immediately froze.

How can you extinguish a fire on your brain? Put water in your head to put out the fire?

The sea of fire completely engulfed the Glazed Bottle, continually refining it.

Suddenly, Han Yu felt entranced, a mysterious feeling connected him completely with the Glazed Bottle.

Suddenly, a childish voice rang vividly in his ear.

”You almost suffocated me! You fool, it took you more than a year just to awaken me!”

Han Yu was startled, wondering if his brain was burned that caused a hallucination, the Glazed Bottle became haunted! It spoke!

”You’re the one seeing ghosts.”

Han Yu was stunned, this thing could even hear his inner thoughts, what a terrifying ability.

”I am the Artifact Spirit of the Glazed Bottle, Glass.”

The childish voice said...

After a full two-hour period, Han Yu’s face was extremely dark.

He felt the urge to destroy the Glazed Bottle again.

”So you’re saying, before you awakened, taking one Pill a day was just the Glazed Bottle’s way to quickly awaken you by absorbing the side effects from the Medicine Taker?”

The key point was that it was all in vain. In the Artifact Spirit’s view, the Glazed Bottle itself made Pills randomly according to its instincts, so those outrageous Pills for breast enhancement, beauty, lactation, and virility had no energy feedback at all.

Han Yu almost shed tears. Oh heavens, how he struggled with those ludicrous useless Pills over the past year or so, sometimes even the elderly weren’t spared in distributing them.

Does that mean he could escape such days in the future?

”No, if there’s no energy feedback for a long time, I will fall into slumber again, then you might face an even more voracious Glazed Bottle.”

Han Yu envisioned the Glazed Bottle continuously firing Pills in his mind, his lips trembled, just the thought made him shiver...

”But after I awaken you can refine Pills three times a day, or not at all. It’s best to refine Pills among the cultivators, and those like Xiao Shui, who are favored by destiny, are the most profitable.”

”So, Han Yu, let’s continue to take advantage of Young Master Xiao!” Glass was particularly excited when mentioning Young Master Xiao, the childish voice even had a tone of sharpening knives.

”Isn’t that a bit inappropriate?”

Han Yu felt hesitant, exploiting one person felt excessive.

”Don’t you want his Fire Series Divine Techniques?”

Wang Xuannan was carried out of the Xiao Mansion, Zhang Kui and the tearful Qiu Susu placed him on a hired carriage.

At this moment he no longer had the slightest demeanor of high spirits, his white robe was burned into tatters, his hair mostly scorched, his entire person charred black, barely clinging to life.

”Let’s go!”

Zhang Kui sighed, wanting to raise the whip to depart.

”Wait... wait a moment...”

Inside the carriage, Wang Xuannan spoke with a whisper of breath.

”Send... send a message... back... I am not reconciled.”

Lu Dayou’s face was peculiar, his thick eyebrows furrowed together.

”What did you say, the Xiao family’s child crippled the Celestial Water Sect’s major disciple?”

Did I get up too hastily this morning? Or did I indulge excessively last night causing a hallucination, just like saying to be moderate.

The Palace Guard confirmed repeatedly, ”The disciple was carried out half alive from the burn, probably half the townfolk saw it.”

Not dreaming?

Lu Dayou’s face was still incredulous, wasn’t the Xiao family in commerce? When have they produced a cultivator, especially under my watch?

He had met the Xiao family kid, quite ordinary indeed, or perhaps he was pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger all along.

”It’s said that a Pharmacist entered the large Xiao mansion that day, the Young Master Xiao consumed a Pill and subdued the disciple of the Celestial Water Sect.”

This is even more absurd than Young Master Xiao defeating the Celestial Water Sect disciple.

”Impossible.”

Lu Dayou flatly denied.

The Palace Guard spoke with a bowed head, ”An entire Xiao Family saw Young Master Xiao consume the Pill.”

Lu Dayou was flabbergasted, could it be that his group of defeated Guardians had been out of touch with the Cultivation Realm for so long that its changes were now so rapid?

Since when did cultivators become so valueless, a single Pill equaling years of hard cultivation, was I guarding a mansion for ages for Breaking Realm just a joke?

The Palace Guard glanced at his dazed superior and quietly withdrew.

Han Yu ultimately couldn’t resist the temptation of the Fire Series Divine Techniques, sneaked back into the city, and unexpectedly ran into the dazed Qiu Susu standing foolishly on the street.

Qiu Susu seemed soulless, her heart full of mixed feelings.

Xiao Shui’s figure appeared at the end of the street, seeing Qiu Susu his expression grew complex as he gradually approached.

A Copper Token and a letter simultaneously appeared in his hands.

The Copper Token was struck fifteen years ago, imprinted with a marriage certificate, the letter was a divorce letter personally signed by Patriarch Xiao.

Fifteen years ago, betrothed under the family name, and now the marriage is annulled under the same family name.

When Qiu Susu took the Copper Token and marriage document, her expression was extremely complex, her heart full of mixed emotions.

She indeed got what she wanted, but it didn’t seem as joyous as imagined.

The most admired senior brother was still half-dead lying there, he wasn’t as strong as he seemed.

”Brother Xiao...”

Qiu Susu wanted to say something but hesitated.

Xiao Shui’s brows furrowed, he had never been so disgusted with someone, especially when that someone almost became his partner, the thought alone made him nauseous.

”In the future, just call me Young Master Xiao.”

Xiao Shui interrupted her with a sullen face, left without looking back.

Qiu Susu could only stand holding the two items, smiling bitterly, her smile more lamentable than crying.

Han Yu sneakily watched this drama unfold, feeling immensely satisfied.

”This is more interesting than those storytellers’ tales of demon-slaying and monster-vanquishing, a breakup at the start, face-smacking at the end.”

”Who knows, if I give that woman a Pill to enhance her, would it be an attempt to rekindle the past or rebuff?”

Han Yu suddenly had a mischievous notion.

”Isn’t there a possibility that the two of them team up to take you down?”

A voice suddenly asked from behind.

”That’s impossible.”

Han Yu blurted out without thinking, then paused, turned around and saw a middle-aged man in sky-blue brocade staring at him with a peculiar gaze...
