79: Chapter 79 I Got into Bed
You looked down at the Pill King kneeling on the ground with a calm expression, a smile playing on your lips.
The small attic was very quiet; the calming incense in the burner was still smoldering, with wisps of blue smoke rising to meet the dim yellow sunlight filtering in through the window lattice.
You took a step forward and crouched down, blocking the dim yellow light behind you, your shadow casting over the Pill King's entire kneeling form.
"Senior Pill King, a Grandmaster must not be insulted!" you said, looking at the Pill King with a light chuckle.
The Pill King wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, kneeling on the ground, his body as rigid as a stone.
He looked up at you; you had a smile on your Face, looking just like an ordinary young man.
But in the Pill King's eyes at this moment, you were a complete devil.
"Who exactly are you!" the Pill King said, gritting his teeth at you.
From that last exchange, he had felt it; you were definitely not some newly Breakthrough Innate, and the spiritual energy within your body was countless times more profound than his, a veteran Innate.
Regardless, he had suffered a huge fall today.
You ignored him, stood up, and stretched your neck, your joints cracking twice. Then you turned your head, casting your gaze past the window lattice toward a certain corner outside the attic.
"Old fellow over there, no need to hide anymore!"
There was a moment of silence outside the attic. Before long, a figure flashed out from the corner, toes lightly tapping on the eaves as he drifted into the attic.
It was none other than the Grand Elder of Liehuo Sect.
He glanced at you and then caught a glimpse of the Pill King kneeling on the side, the corner of his mouth twitching involuntarily.
"Grandmaster Lin, I am the Grand Elder of Liehuo Sect," the Grand Elder of Liehuo Sect said.
When he spoke, his voice was steady and his tone sincere, which, combined with his mature and prudent Face, truly gave him the air of a highly respected elder.
"To tell you the truth, I came here today because I heard that a Young Grandmaster had emerged in this Pill King Competition. I felt a desire to cherish talent and wanted to invite Grandmaster Lin to join our Liehuo Sect."
He paused here, glanced at the Pill King kneeling on the ground, sighed, and showed a look of righteous indignation on his Face.
"I never expected that upon walking outside this attic, I would witness this old wretch attacking Grandmaster Lin. I had intended to rush in immediately to help, but Grandmaster Lin's skills were truly too astonishing; before I could even take a step, this old wretch was already kneeling on the ground. It makes my actions seem redundant."
After speaking, he walked up to the Pill King and gave him a big kick!
"Li Qingshui! You old wretch!" The Grand Elder pointed at the Pill King's nose and cursed him roundly, spitting saliva all over the Pill King's Face. "As the dignified Valley Master of Danwang Valley, you actually resorted to a sneak attack on a newly Breakthrough Young Grandmaster! Do you have no shame? Have you fed the rules of the Martial Artist world to the dogs?"
Li Qingshui was the Pill King's name.
At this moment, the Pill King was covered in the Grand Elder's spit, his Face turning livid.
He glared at the Grand Elder of Liehuo Sect, his eyes wide!
The Grand Elder cursed the Pill King while looking at you; as he spoke, he kicked the Pill King again, knocking him entirely to the ground, then walked over to your side and cupped his hands in a salute.
"Grandmaster Lin, rest assured, I guarantee you that this old wretch will definitely receive the punishment he deserves!"
You yawned and looked at him: "Are you done? If not, do you want to give him another kick and ask if this grandson of a Pill King has any style?"
The Grand Elder of Liehuo Sect stood there awkwardly, glancing at the Pill King, not knowing what to say.
You waved your hand in boredom and said to the Grand Elder of Liehuo Sect: "You kneel down too!"
The Grand Elder didn't react for a moment: "Huh?"
Then, a massive pressure descended from above; he only felt as if his legs had been nailed into the ground, his knees bending and trembling uncontrollably, until he crashed onto the floor with a thud.
And what about the Pill King on the other side?
His Face was already pressed against the floor.
You withdrew your pressure, took a chair from the side, and sat on it, watching the two of them.
The Grand Elder's back was already soaked; he had lived for so many years and had seen no fewer than ten Martial Saint experts, and he had even dealt with those big shots in the Saint Realm, but their pressure was qualitatively different compared to yours just now.
He had only felt this kind of pressure from one person.
"Martial Arts Myth." He raised his head, his cloudy old eyes filled with disbelief, his voice as dry as sandpaper rubbing against wood, "You... you are a Martial God."
You crossed your legs, watching the two of them: "You are right, I am a Martial God!"
"A Grandmaster must not be insulted, and a Martial God even less so. Now tell me, what must you do for me to let you two go?"
Hearing you personally admit the fact that you were a Martial God, the Grand Elder seemed to have all his strength drained, collapsing onto the ground.
A Young Martial God!
He had actually wanted to make a Young Martial God act as a vessel; he was simply insane.
The Pill King's Face remained pressed against the floor, not daring to get up. In his heart, he was cursing: You, a Martial God, why not go to the Saint Realm instead of coming to participate in this Pill King Conference held for juniors?
Of course, he didn't dare say this out loud.
You looked at these two; honestly, you didn't want to kill them, but you were definitely going to teach them a lesson.
Spiritual energy condensed in your hand, pointing toward the two.
But suddenly, you felt the aura of another Martial God flying toward this place.
Before long, this Martial God appeared before you.
It was none other than Master Wu Suanzi.
"Little friend! We meet again!" Master Wu Suanzi said, cupping his hands in a salute to you.
He was shocked in his heart; it had only been a few days, and he could feel that your overall strength was a huge leap stronger than before.
That day when he met you at Wanhao Bar, although you were already at the Martial God cultivation level, it looked like you had just broken through, and your cultivation wasn't stable. Yet, only a few days had passed, and not only had your cultivation stabilized, but it looked like you had broken through again!
He had originally thought that you had obtained some Martial God Legacy, gaining the entire cultivation of some ancient Martial God.
But looking at it now, Master Wu Suanzi had every reason to believe that you were simply gifted, having reached this Realm through your own cultivation.
To think there is such a Prodigy in the world!
Master Wu Suanzi suppressed the shock in his heart and swept a glance at the two people kneeling on the side.
"You bastards!" He looked at the two; although he didn't know how they had offended you, cursing them out first was never wrong.
Master Wu Suanzi kicked the Pill King in the Face.
The Pill King was kicked flying, getting stuck on the attic wall.
After Master Wu Suanzi finished kicking the Pill King, he gave the Grand Elder a slap.
After doing all this, Master Wu Suanzi finally walked over to your side: "I don't know how these two wicked Disciples of mine have offended you, little friend, but I implore you to spare their lives."
You looked at Master Wu Suanzi and finally nodded.
Giving Face to Prisoner 4's Master.
"According to the normal timeline, Master Wu Suanzi should have taken a few more days to wake up; it seems this is the butterfly effect I caused that day at Wanhao Bar." You thought to yourself while sizing up Master Wu Suanzi.
You felt the spiritual energy fluctuations inside Master Wu Suanzi; he was roughly at the Martial God Middle Stage cultivation level. You simulated it in your mind, and in a real fight, you could likely take him down in two moves.
Finally, you proposed to Master Wu Suanzi the requirement that the Pill King call you Grandfather.
Although Master Wu Suanzi didn't understand, he still pried the Pill King off the wall and made him kneel on the ground to call you Grandfather.
Then you demanded that the Grand Elder of Liehuo Sect keep his Disciple, Chen Tianxiao, in check and not let him bother you.
The Grand Elder of Liehuo Sect said with a shocked Face: "Senior, are you saying that Tianxiao likes men, and he likes you!"
You ignored the shocked Grand Elder and walked out of the attic.
The Pill King Competition lasted for two days and one night, but by the time the Pill King Competition completely ended, it was already the evening of the second day.
Danwang Valley only provided one night's accommodation.
You glanced at the sunset and went to the hotel booked by the Iron Hand Sect.
Danwang Valley was originally located within a scenic area, and the surroundings were very lively; Zhou Qingming and the others seemed to have gone out to play.
You felt it was boring and didn't go out.
You thought of Mu Xue; she had already reached the Innate Realm, so did that mean she would soon return to the Zhou Family to act as some vessel for the Zhou Family Empress?
Should you stop her?
But this was her own choice; when the time comes, are you just going to watch her be used as a vessel by others?
"Forget it, I'll go to the Saint Realm and see when the time comes!" You simply closed your eyes and stopped thinking about it.
At worst, you'd just go over there and beat up everyone in the Zhou Family!
Anyway, you had the strength to do so now.
Thinking this, you fell asleep.
The next day, sunlight shone in through the window, hitting your Face.
You felt something was wrong before you even opened your eyes.
There was someone beside you!
You opened your eyes.
A woman with a lollipop in her mouth was lying on her side next to you, her elbow propped on the pillow, holding her chin, just quietly looking at your Face. She was so close that you could smell that the lollipop she had in her mouth was strawberry-flavored.
Eye to eye, Mu Xue looked at you, and you looked at Mu Xue.
