Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?-Chapter 358 - 300: Became a Landlord?

"These old geezers are something else!"

Han Yu hovered in the sky, watching from a distance the dazzling barrier below, while wave after wave of explosions continued to erupt within.

With such overwhelming firepower, the entire area was thoroughly plowed over; when the smoke cleared, a vast expanse of devastated ground appeared, with only fragments and rubble remaining of the buildings.

It should have worked.

Han Yu glanced over there, thinking to himself.

This method was essentially the same as the big fireball he just used, completely trapping those monsters before proceeding to annihilate them, ensuring none escaped, and giving them no chance to flee.

The group seemed still uneasy, and after forming a seal, another powerful aura burst forth.

Light Rain and Strong Wind!

Within the barrier, a massive storm appeared, sweeping away the debris on the ground, leaving nothing untouched. The Great Elder didn’t even plan to spare the ground itself; after the storm swept past confirming nothing was left, they stopped.

"You don’t even know how to respect the elderly."

After everything was done, the barrier finally opened completely. The Great Elder, with some leisure, looked up at the sky and glanced at Han Yu watching the commotion nearby, speaking with a hint of bad mood.

Me?

Han Yu pointed at himself in confusion, how could this have anything to do with respecting the elderly?

Well, you guys were already taking action!

He would have jumped in, but he let them take the opportunity!

Besides, wasn’t the Inspectorate always blaming him wherever he went, claiming destruction followed?

This time, other than the inn he set aflame himself, the rest were all their doing.

Especially when four old men made a move, they turned a one-mile radius within the city into rubble.

This time, such a black mark shouldn’t find its way into his resume, right?

"Search the whole city again to avoid omissions."

The Great Elder instructed the other three Elders, then approached him alone.

"I heard you uprooted the entire Celestial City Peak all by yourself, fighting eight in one go. Is that true?"

Facing Han Yu, his expression was strange. If the Inspectorate wasn’t exaggerating, does it mean this kid could fight eight in the Realm of Transcendence alone?

What a prodigy, nothing like this has been seen in thousands of years.

Han Yu was bewildered, who the hell was spreading rumors about him again?

It must be those gossip-loving cultivators from the Inspectorate spreading nonsense.

Don’t include me in your tall tales!

"That’s not true; they came in batches."

The Great Elder’s expression normalized somewhat after hearing this. If he defeated them one by one, that was somewhat acceptable.

"Fighting eight is impossible; I only fought six."

Han Yu’s exaggerated words instantly made him roll his eyes.

What’s the difference between fighting six or eight? You’re being modest now.

At this level, if he couldn’t beat six, two more wouldn’t make a difference.

Clearly, there’s no chance to make up for what happened with the Ginseng King, and it’s best not to try. If this little brat gets truly offended, he might pull out a Longevity Pill, and calling him grandpa might not even make him acknowledge you.

"Ahem, can you give an explanation regarding the Ginseng King?"

The Great Elder coughed dryly, lowering his voice.

Especially when he said this, a rare blush appeared on his old face, no wonder he came up alone.

"I really didn’t do it on purpose. I was captured by Luo Yuqi at the time and had no choice but to trick him into taking the pill. As for what happened afterward, I had nothing to do with it." 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Han Yu smiled bitterly. It’s true the matter began because of him, but the primary blame lay with the Cyan Sun Sect.

If the Cyan Sun Sect hadn’t coveted Luo Yuqi’s Spirit Field, they wouldn’t have thought of dragging the Nine Sects into this; and without that, those eight wouldn’t have suffered this unwarranted disaster.

"Hmm, that old guy from the Unparalleled Tower has already gone over to hang the Cyan Yang Sect Leader up and beat him for a few days."

He probably couldn’t figure out why he got beaten.

"But I drank bathwater for almost one and a half months, you know? I even licked his scalp for seven or eight days..."

The old guy looked at him with a gaze full of grievances, like a wronged little wife.

Ordinary people would never have the chance to see the formidable Nanli Grand Elder looking so ghostly.

"Well, just say what you want directly!"

The more Han Yu listened, the stranger it got. This posture didn’t seem like he was here to settle accounts; could it be he needed something from him?

"Refreshing."

With Han Yu’s words, the Great Elder’s sullen demeanor changed, giving a thumbs up in praise, then spoke with great enthusiasm, "Do you have any more Longevity Pills? I wouldn’t mind ten years, and I definitely wouldn’t mind a hundred or eighty."

Wow! That’s a hell of an appetite.

Still wouldn’t mind a hundred or eighty years, Ou Mingdong’s ghost master lived each day as if lying in a cradle in the morning and in a coffin at night for sixty years of life. If you dared to long for such a lifespan, the side effects of real pills might make getting struck by lightning seem like a gentle breeze.

"Not now."

Han Yu refused without a second thought; he never dared to make promises flippantly.

The randomness of Ping is too high, if he’s really unlucky, this guy might turn to dust before he gets a pill.

Nanli Grand Elder seemed to know Han Yu had no pills, but was still hopefully speaking, "No need now. When you refine another one, give it to me first; I won’t accept the reward for free."

That’s doable. If one comes, he wouldn’t mind giving it to him first; only such old foxes dared to take Longevity-type pills regardless of the side effects.

"I can when I have it. But I can’t guarantee how long it’ll take."

Han Yu specifically reminded, in case he came pestering every other day.

"It’s Divine Medicine! I understand, if you need more refining ingredients, come to me."

The Great Elder patted his chest boldly, "I got you covered!"

This generous aura was indeed impressive, but the reality was, he told him that he himself was the most generous one.

"You’re something else now! I heard you’ve taken over twenty percent of the Spirit Field near Sea Stone City."

The Great Elder said with a burning gaze, while Han Yu was utterly confused.

Didn’t know whether he was referring to the Spirit Fields near the Wood Spirit?

Has word of the Wood Spirit gotten to the Nine Sects too?

This must have been leaked by the Inspectorate, but it’s not unjustifiable. Such a massive entity can’t be hidden, nor could it remain concealed.

But he didn’t expect Old Ghost Ling could even use the Spirit Field, meant for harvesting, as a commodity.

"Quan Xiaotong provided a small patch; Nanli Sword Studio can plant whatever they want on it."

The Great Elder commented.

Han Yu then got curious and couldn’t help asking, "Is this part of your collaboration?"

Nanli Sword Studio provided manpower and resources, and when the issue arose, they didn’t hesitate to deploy four Elders, showing sincere intent.

"With the addition of Luo Yuqi, who drank my bathwater every day."

The Great Elder added with a pout.

Han Yu winced, his impression of Quan Xiaotong, whom he had not yet met, deepened further.

This man was just sold to the Inspectorate, and in turn, they’ve sold him off to the Nanli Sword Studio.

He’s being milked for all he’s worth!

A lone Luo Yuqi certainly wouldn’t warrant such cooperation from the Nanli Sword Studio, but if it’s the Pill Formula in Luo Yuqi’s head, plus a marvelous Spirit Field, that’s undeniably enough weight.

The only odd part was, he didn’t know about him owning twenty percent of it.

"The Inspectorate mentioned it themselves, twenty percent of the Spirit Field is yours, and currently they’re helping you grow it!"

The Great Elder looked enviously, having visited the site; when compared to theirs, his twenty percent seemed more like a mere small vegetable plot.

This guy had become a landlord in the Cultivator Realm, complete with free tenants.

Han Yu was dazed by this unexpected windfall from the Inspectorate’s generosity.

But... he had no use for this stuff, right? He didn’t even have time to farm; the Glazed Bottle was already more than he could handle!

Otherwise, planting some grain might turn the rice into Spirit Rice.

He wondered if Spirit Rice was any tasty?

If he voiced this thought, it might drown him in the saliva of countless pharmacists. Such a blessed land used to plant rice was not just wasteful, it was rich dog behavior.

While the two casually chatted, the city’s duo forces emerged gradually, followed by the Nanli Sword Studio’s cultivators, consolidating into a formidable team sweeping through the city for a comprehensive search.

The three Elders even joined forces to set an array in mid-air that, once activated, illuminated the entire city brightly.

Han Yu scanned from the sky for a moment, but could not find You Li.

"Who are you looking for?"

The Great Elder was quite curious.

"A girl with thick eyebrows and eyes like a big pancake face!"
