Villainous Cao Cao: Inheriting Everything from the Chosen One

117: You can definitely do it.The person who arrived was none other than Yun An.

The third-generation Cloud Emperor of the Spirit Realm’s Yunxiao Pavilion, he had already reached the True Immortal Perfection Realm.

This was something he had cultivated bit by bit by squeezing out spare time over the past hundred thousand years.

”Brother An.”

Gu Qingtian offered a greeting, his eyes filled with gratitude as he looked at Yun An.

If Yun An hadn’t taught him the tricks of mining, he might not have even been able to scrape together thirty Immortal Stones.

Yun An waved his hand: ”No need for formalities. By the way, have you gathered the fifty Immortal Stones?”

Gu Qingtian shook his head, his tone full of bitterness: ”I’m still short by five.”

Seeing Yun An’s composed demeanor, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked urgently, ”Brother An, you’ve been in the Mine for a hundred thousand years; you must have some extra Immortal Stones on you, right?”

His Divine Sense was quite strong, allowing him to clearly see the cultivation of Cultivators in the same Realm.

Yun An was at True Immortal Perfection, the strongest cultivation among all the Miners.

His mining speed was naturally among the fastest, so he definitely had extra Immortal Stones hidden on him.

”Naturally, I do,” Yun An nodded.

Hearing this, Gu Qingtian was overjoyed: ”Brother An, for the sake of us being from the same hometown, sell me five. I’ll pay you back ten next year, how about it?”

Yun An smiled and shook his head: ”Not good enough.”

Gu Qingtian was stunned, and his expression immediately darkened.

Just as he was about to ask why, he saw Yun An looking him over with a peculiar gaze.

In an instant, Gu Qingtian froze completely, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

An absurd yet certain thought emerged in the depths of his heart.

This Yun An was a pervert.

He suppressed the discomfort in his heart and asked tentatively, ”Brother An, then what do you want in exchange for five Immortal Stones?”

Yun An no longer hid it, the desire in his eyes almost overflowing.

He had endured for a year, and only he knew the torment of this past year.

”Brother Qingtian, you don’t want to be executed, do you?”

Yun An’s voice carried a hint of enticement: ”As long as you satisfy a small wish of your brother’s, you’ll get one Immortal Stone; satisfy five, and you’ll get five Immortal Stones.”

Gu Qingtian’s Face was livid; he had already guessed most of it.

However, he still asked with a sliver of uncertain hope: ”I wonder what wish Brother An has? If I can do it, I will certainly satisfy it.”

Yun An chuckled: ”You can definitely do it.”

As he spoke, he leaned into Gu Qingtian’s ear and whispered a few words.

After listening, Gu Qingtian’s fists clenched tightly, his body trembling uncontrollably, and his Face turned from green to white.

He should have known long ago that there was no such thing as free kindness in this world.

But he never expected that Yun An’s request would be so perverted.

Seeing Gu Qingtian’s silence, Yun An smiled again: ”Brother Qingtian, just think of it as a favor to your old brother, how about it? Don’t worry, I’ll be quick.”

These words made Gu Qingtian’s stomach churn, and he almost threw up everything he had eaten a hundred years ago.

”Impossible!” He sternly refused.

To think he was the dignified Sword Immortal Gu, a peerless figure destined to reach the Peak in the future.

If he agreed to Yun An, even if he truly stood at the Peak of this world later, this matter would become an indelible stain on him.

Yun An wasn’t in a hurry and said slowly, ”Impossible? Then are you really prepared to let them castrate you?”

Gu Qingtian gritted his teeth and said, ”So what if I’m castrated! As long as I can Cultivate to the Realm where I can restore my Physical Body with just a sliver of my Primordial Spirit, I can get back everything I’ve lost!”

Hearing this, Yun An sneered, ”Brother Qingtian, it’s good to have that kind of spirit, but can you even leave this place?”

”If you can’t leave, ninety-nine point nine-nine percent of your life will be spent mining.”

”As for cultivating? Don’t even think about it.”

He paused and added, ”I’ve been here for a hundred thousand years. If I had used all my mining time for cultivation, no matter how poor my talent was, I’d be much stronger than the Head Overseer of this Mine.”

”I’m still stuck at True Immortal Perfection now; do you know how difficult cultivation is?”

”Furthermore, you should have noticed by now that no Miner in this Mine has a cultivation level exceeding True Immortal.”

”It’s not that there never were any, but rather that Cultivators who exceed True Immortal are more useful.”

”They will be branded as Slaves and sent to the Auction House to be auctioned off.”

”Here, at least the Overseers won’t actually kill us.”

”But once you become a Slave and are bought by someone, your life and death will no longer be in your own hands.”

After hearing this, Gu Qingtian felt as if his world was collapsing.

But as he listened further, a thought suddenly occurred to him.

Becoming a Slave was better than staying in the Mine for a lifetime with no hope of ever seeing the light of day.

He thought of Cao Bu.

Back then, although Cao Bu wasn’t in such a situation, he could still kneel and acknowledge him as his father in front of the whole city without hesitation.

Since Cao Bu could do it, why couldn’t he choose this path?

As long as he could stay alive, there might still be a grand path to the heavens in the future.

But on second thought, he hit another snag.

To take this path, his cultivation must first exceed the True Immortal Realm so that he could be sent to the Auction House.

Secondly, he would have to find a powerhouse to kneel to and acknowledge as his father, making the other party feel superior.

To put it bluntly, it was about helping the other person show off.

But as a Slave, what could he possibly give them?

Back then, Cao Bu was willing to kneel because their cultivation levels weren’t that far apart, and that scene allowed him to gain plenty of Face in front of the whole city, which was why he agreed.

What’s more, he, the Sword Immortal Gu, did not kneel to heaven or earth, only to his parents.

To ask him to kneel to someone else was something he simply couldn’t do.

Pushing that thought aside, Gu Qingtian returned to reality.

Even if he wanted to be a Slave, he first had to achieve a Breakthrough in the True Immortal Realm.

Based on his observations over the past year, out of three hundred and sixty-five days, it was lucky if he could have ten days to Cultivate.

At his cultivation speed, it would take at least fifty years to surpass True Immortal.

If he calculated based on ten days of cultivation time per year, it would probably take two thousand years to achieve a Breakthrough.

It was too long.

If he could use Immortal Stones to assist his cultivation, the speed would certainly be greatly reduced.

But he could barely even gather enough Immortal Stones for a year’s quota, so how could he talk about secretly using Immortal Stones to Cultivate?

Seeing that Gu Qingtian remained silent, Yun An said confidently, ”Since Brother Qingtian doesn’t agree, then this old brother will take his leave.”

With that, he turned and left without the slightest hesitation.

Over the past year, he had long since figured out Gu Qingtian’s character.

This person was unwilling to be mediocre; such people were sometimes the easiest to manipulate, yet also the most dangerous.

Of course, he wouldn’t give Gu Qingtian a chance to threaten him.

Once he was tired of playing with him, he would send him to the afterlife.

In any case, he had been using this routine for a hundred thousand years and knew it by heart.

Afterward, no one would ever suspect him; they would only treat it as an accident.

Seeing that Yun An was about to walk away, Gu Qingtian gritted his teeth and quickly stepped forward to block his path.

”Brother Qingtian, is there something else?” Yun An looked at him with a half-smile, a hint of amusement flashing in his eyes.

Gu Qingtian clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth, ”Five stones, once.”

Yun An shook his head: ”For the sake of us being from the same hometown, five stones, four times.”

”Five stones, twice.”

”Five stones, three times.”

”Five stones, twice.”

”Five stones, three times.”
