Chapter 482: He Doesn’t Count, He Has A Cheat!

Afterward, Yue Lingshan held Ning Zhongze’s hand and chattered about the interesting things happening at the Manor recently, while Guo Fu clung to Huang Rong, asking endless questions, curious about their experiences in the other world.

Yu Xian, however, smiled and patted Lin Pingzhi’s shoulder, asking, “Pingzhi, Dog Brother… that is to say, Shi Potian, do you have any news about him?”

Lin Pingzhi quickly nodded, “Master, Brother Shi is in the Manor right now. He kept his promise and has been staying at the Manor waiting for Master.”

Upon hearing this, Yu Xian nodded. It was good that the person was here!

“Then take me to find him. I originally promised him, but then…” Yu Xian couldn’t help but shake his head as he spoke.

His purpose for returning this time was to bring Shi Potian along. After all, if he could Cultivate him well, he would surely be a great asset in the future.

Seeing a trace of seriousness in his Master’s expression, Lin Pingzhi dared not delay and quickly replied, “Brother Shi should be Cultivating right now. This Disciple will take Master over immediately.”

Immediately, Lin Pingzhi led Yu Xian to Shi Potian’s location, while Ning Zhongze and Huang Rong, the two pairs of mothers and daughters, caught up on old times.

In fact, when Lin Pingzhi mentioned that Dog Brother was in the Manor just now, Yu Xian’s Divine Sense had already swept across the entire Manor, so he already knew where Dog Brother was located.

Upon arriving at Shi Potian’s location, Yu Xian looked intently and saw that Shi Potian was wearing coarse cloth clothes, his hair casually tied at the back of his head, with a touch of simple honesty on his face. He currently had his eyes tightly shut, his brow slightly furrowed, seemingly attempting to break through some Bottleneck.

His aura, compared to Yu Xian’s current level, was not top-tier, yet it was exceptionally pure and condensed, like unpolished jade, brimming with infinite potential.

Yu Xian did not step forward immediately, merely watching quietly.

He could feel that the Internal Energy within Shi Potian’s body was continuously accumulating and compressing, like a volcano about to erupt, needing only one opportunity to achieve a Breakthrough.

After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Shi Potian suddenly opened his eyes. A sharp glint flashed and vanished in his eyes. He then took a deep breath and slowly exhaled a mouthful of turbid air.

That mouthful of turbid air transformed into a faint white stream that floated several feet in the air before slowly dissipating. He slowly stood up, stretched his limbs, and let out a series of crisp cracking sounds. A hint of joy appeared on his face; clearly, he had successfully broken through.

He reached the Middle Stage of the Land Immortal Realm! To reach the Middle Stage of the Land Immortal Realm so quickly in this world, probably only Dog Brother could rival Zhang Sanfeng! Of course, he doesn’t count—he has a cheat!

Yu Xian couldn’t help but exclaim.

Shi Potian turned his head and saw Yu Xian and Lin Pingzhi. He was startled for a moment, then a simple, honest smile spread across his face, and he walked over quickly, “Young Master Yu, you’re back!”

“Mm, Dog Brother, how have you been?” Yu Xian asked with a smile.

Shi Potian scratched his head and chuckled, “I’ve been great. Brother Lin took very good care of me, and everyone in the Manor has been very kind. Every day, besides eating and sleeping, I just practice my skills, and I feel like my power has improved quite a bit!”

“I can see that. You just had a Breakthrough, didn’t you?” Yu Xian inquired.

The smile on Shi Potian’s face grew wider, and he nodded vigorously, “Yes! Suddenly, I felt a lot more strength inside me, like I had endless energy to use!”

“Not bad. Your efforts were not in vain. I returned this time because I plan to take you with me. I promised you before that I would take you to a broader world, and now it’s time to fulfill that promise.” Yu Xian patted Dog Brother’s shoulder.

Upon hearing this, Shi Potian was stunned for a moment, then his face broke out in disbelief and ecstasy, “Is… is that true? Young Master Yu, are you really taking me? Can I bring Ah Xiu along?”

“It’s certainly true.” Yu Xian smiled, “However, there might be quite a bit of danger where we are going. Are you sure you want to bring Ah Xiu? Why don’t you let Ah Xiu wait, and we can bring her over when we return next time? We have a major operation over there that might take several months, or even half a year.”

Shi Potian thought for a moment, then said with determined eyes, “I will listen to Young Master.”

Although he was simple-minded, he also knew that only by staying by Yu Xian’s side could he achieve greater development and witness a more magnificent world.

Yu Xian nodded in satisfaction, “Good! Since that’s the case, go back and tell Ah Xiu. We depart tomorrow.”

“Okay!” Dog Brother agreed, then turned around to go find Ah Xiu.

“Pingzhi, what about you? Do you want to come with Master and see that world?” Yu Xian asked Lin Pingzhi with a faint smile as he watched Dog Brother’s retreating back.

Lin Pingzhi was silent for a moment upon hearing this, but ultimately shook his head, “Master, I won’t go. My parents, Lingshan, and Master Yue are all here. A son should not travel far while his parents are alive. Moreover, given my Aptitude, reaching the Land Immortal Realm now is already the pinnacle; I am very content.”

Yu Xian nodded upon hearing this. Lin Pingzhi had his own thoughts and choices, and he would not force him. Furthermore, he knew that Lin Pingzhi was slightly self-conscious; facing Prodigies like Yang Guo and Little Fish, his Aptitude was indeed lacking, which must cause him some internal disparity.

“That’s fine too. I’ll leave things here to you then. Here is a blood bodhi; it will help you improve your cultivation. You cannot slack off while Master is away.” Yu Xian took out a blood bodhi.

Lin Pingzhi looked at the blood bodhi before him, which was entirely crimson and emitted a gentle luster, and a flicker of surprise and emotion crossed his eyes.

Master’s kindness toward him remained unchanged.

He quickly bowed to accept it, his hands trembling slightly, and said solemnly, “This Disciple thanks Master for your great favor! This Disciple will definitely Cultivate diligently and guard Manduo Manor, guard everyone!”

Yu Xian looked at the way he tightly clutched the blood bodhi and understood in his heart. Although this child considered his Aptitude ordinary, he possessed a tenacity and sense of responsibility that ordinary people could not match.

“Take it now, and I will help you refine it.” Yu Xian added.

Lin Pingzhi did not hesitate and directly swallowed the blood bodhi. Immediately, a warm current spread from his Dantian to his limbs and bones, as if countless tiny points of light were jumping and traveling through his Meridians. He felt his entire body’s Qi and blood churning, and the True Qi within him was somewhat uncontrollable.

Seeing this, Yu Xian stood with his two fingers together and lightly tapped Lin Pingzhi’s glabella. A gentle yet pure spiritual energy slowly flowed in, guiding the medicinal power of the blood bodhi to circulate orderly within his body, gradually smoothing and refining that violent energy, integrating it into his Cultivation.

After a long while.

Lin Pingzhi slowly opened his eyes. A red light flashed and vanished in his eyes. The aura around him was even more robust than before; he had solidly stepped into the Middle Stage of the Land Immortal Realm.

Feeling the surging power within him, he was even more overwhelmed with gratitude toward Yu Xian and immediately knelt down to him, “Thank you, Master!”

“Get up. Have you forgotten my rule?” Yu Xian pulled Lin Pingzhi up.

“In this realm, there should be few people who are your match. Your level of cultivation is enough for self-protection and protecting your family.” Yu Xian patted Lin Pingzhi’s shoulder.

Although this kid’s Aptitude was lacking, wasn’t he still pushed to the Middle Stage of the Land Immortal Realm by Yu Xian? He was quite satisfied with Lin Pingzhi!
