Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse
Chapter 445 - 230: Faking Death and Leaving, Hiding My Name in the Immortal City
This child is merely at the Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer, yet he managed to survive. Truly, he has great fortune and destiny, indeed quite extraordinary.
Wen Jiu vaguely remembers something about Wang Xianzhi.
Wang Xianzhi was born in the Spiritless Mortal World, his family slaughtered by Heterodox Demons, later saved by a traveler from Deadman Peak. Afterwards, he relied solely on Spirit Stones to enter the Qi Cultivation First Layer within a month in the Spiritless Mortal World. In the second year, he reached Qi Cultivation Second Layer, and in the third year, he managed to forcefully reach Qi Cultivation Third Layer. Although his Spirit Root and aptitude were not top-notch, his fortune and opportunities were indeed considerable.
"Since you were fated to live and meet me, I shall help you this once," Wen Jiu decided without hesitation.
He decided to make an investment.
Let’s see what can be reaped in a hundred years.
At the same time, Wen Jiu also wanted to help Elder Bai Jianxin leave a descendant.
After all, Elder Bai Jianxin, despite his hatred for the Heterodox Dao, was not an unreasonable villain and had no other relatives or disciples besides Wang Xianzhi, his Direct Disciple.
By helping Wang Xianzhi, he could give him a chance at life, so that at least during the Qingming Festival, someone could burn incense for Bai Jianxin.
Thinking of this, Wen Jiu used Blood Corpse Escape to silently enter the room, scaring Li Yan who was waiting inside.
Seeing it was Wen Jiu, he quickly stood up and saluted, "Elder Han."
Wang Xianzhi also hurriedly saluted with respect, as he had heard the name Han Li more than once. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
This was someone even stronger than his master, uncles, or even the Foundation Establishment Elders of Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks.
"Junior Wang Xianzhi, pays respect to Elder Han."
Upon finishing his words.
Wang Xianzhi was about to kneel.
Wen Jiu stopped him with the Yin Technique, did not pay him any attention, and instead looked towards Ye Chen. After a scan with Divine Sense to ensure there were no major issues, he prepared to take Ye Chen away.
By taking Ye Chen away, he could fulfill his last wish in the Far West and prepare for the Heterodox Golden Core without worry.
Even if he moved to the Hundred Floating Domains later, he could rest easier.
But before he could speak, Ye Chen took the lead, "Fellow Daoist Han, Ye Mou is useless, never expected to trouble you again. But I am already severely injured, and even Tier Two Lower Grade Healing Elixirs have little effect on me. To heal, it would take at least ten to twenty years, so I dare not trouble you nor dare to burden you... But I beg you to help this young one once."
"Uncle Ye!" Upon hearing this, Wang Xianzhi became anxious.
Li Yan was even more anxious on the side.
Brother.
Did my persuasion have no effect?
Li Yan wanted to say a couple more words, but Ye Chen interrupted him, "Fellow Daoist Han, your great kindness to Deadman Peak, to us brothers, if I have the chance to repay you in this life, I would not hesitate to jump into fire and water. If not, Ye Mou only hopes not to burden you, and in the next life, I will surely be at your service!"
"Fellow Daoist Ye, you must be joking. If a Foundation Establishment Early Stage cultivator like you could burden me, I wouldn’t be here." Wen Jiu once again set up a barrier, revealing the aura of the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment.
Li Yan’s face instantly froze.
Ye Chen’s eyes widened, and upon feeling the thick aura of the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment, he fell silent.
Because he clearly remembered Han Li’s cultivation level at the Celestial Extinction Ruins, and it hasn’t even been that long, yet Han Li has reached the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment.
Such talent and cultivation speed, in the entire thousand-year history of the Divine Fall Mountain Range, no one else is so monstrous.
With such a gift, achieving the Golden Core should be within grasp, right?
No wonder Han Li dared to come to help him.
"So Elder Han is actually..." Ye Chen felt a bit of hope arise in his heart. If he could survive without burdening others, if he could live to repay his dues, how could he have a single-minded desire for death?
"Fellow Daoist Ye, do you still think that you, a Foundation Establishment Early Stage, would burden me?" Wen Jiu knew that persuasion was useless, his master was indeed stubborn, so he decided directly to give a different kind of shock.
Li Yan hurriedly responded at this moment, "Brother Ye, let’s go. As long as the green hills are there, there’s no fear of no firewood. I can help you safely leave Lihe Market, and create a semblance of death. As long as you change your name and abandon the Thousand-Pound Tyrant Axe, I, Li Yan, guarantee you’ll be fine in the future!"
Wen Jiu glanced at Li Yan with satisfaction and smiled.
Li Yan, seeing this, was overjoyed and immediately transmitted, "Even without the presence of corpse energy, this junior is willing to serve the elder!"
Ye Chen finally relented, "Then, many thanks to Elder Han. Once Ye Mou is healed, nothing will deter me from repaying the favor."
Wen Jiu gave a nod to Li Yan, "The aftermath is up to you."
"I will definitely handle it properly and cast the Silencing Spell right after," Li Yan immediately assured.
Wen Jiu nodded in satisfaction, took out a Tier Two Top-Grade Healing Elixir, fed it to Ye Chen, and with Blood Corpse Escape, took the two away from Lihe Market. Unfortunately, unable to perform continuous Stone Spike Blood Corpse Escape, Wen Jiu had East Spring Undying Bone wrap the two in corpse energy and used the Three Rivers Ghost Concealment to stealthily head towards the Central Shen Yun Mountain Range.
Once Wen Jiu left, Li Yan immediately reported the news of Ye Chen’s death outside. Although none of the Foundation Establishment cultivators of Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks saw Ye Chen’s body, seeing that it was Li Yan reporting, they did not suspect anything.
No one would offend the Direct Disciple of a Foundation Establishment Perfection cultivator for a mere attached Foundation Establishment cultivator’s true or false death.
Moreover, everyone knew about Ye Chen’s severe injuries, so the responsible Foundation Establishment cultivator was even more willing to do this favor.
...
On the other side.
Wen Jiu quietly led Ye Chen and Wang Xianzhi to the Central Shen Yun Mountain Range, still planning to send them to Wind and Cloud Immortal City, and still hand them over to the Fang Family. With the Fang Family’s means, creating a fake Foundation Establishment cultivator out of thin air was no problem.
As expected, Fang Qian was overjoyed to receive such a significant favor from Wen Jiu.
For two reasons.
Recently, the event of Han Li killing Li Ya with a single punch had spread throughout Wind and Cloud Immortal City. A mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator killing one of the same level in an instant was an incredible feat. In Fang Qian’s view, even if Han Li’s Spirit Root was lacking, there was still a chance he could reach the late stage of Foundation Establishment. After all, Han Li was Feng Jue’s sole friend.
Feng Jue’s status now in Wind and Cloud Immortal City and Little Demon Realm is quite significant. In the future, he might even become one of the Vice City Lords. If we don’t establish a good relationship now, would it be appropriate to do so when the Fang Family is in decline?
"Brother Han, leave this matter to Fang Mou... From today, that fellow cultivator will be a secretly trained old servant of mine, promoted with my Foundation Establishment Pill, so he succeeded in a Realm Breakthrough. If Divine Extinction Thousand Peaks dares to investigate, I’ll cripple anyone they send!" Fang Qian patted his chest in assurance and immediately cast a Silencing Spell.
Wen Jiu nodded, arranging a courtyard for Ye Chen beside Fang Qian’s mansion. After treatment with the Tier Two Top-Grade Healing Elixir, Ye Chen could walk freely, and his injuries were basically stable.
Although he could not yet channel energy or cast spells, with full absorption of the Tier Two Top-Grade Healing Elixir, his injuries could be seventy to eighty percent healed within a month. Notably, when Li Mu and Yanyue saw the disguised Ye Chen visiting with Wang Xianzhi, they incredulously rubbed their eyes.
Both Li Mu and Yanyue thought they’d never see their master Ye Chen again in this life.
Who could have anticipated such sudden joy?
After a simple reunion, Wen Jiu prepared to leave, but Ye Chen suddenly invited him inside.
Then, with a swiftness that caught everyone by surprise, he prostrated on the ground, ready to kowtow, causing Wen Jiu to startle.
Good gracious.
A master kneeling to his disciple.
How much life would that cost him?
"Returning good for evil?" Wen Jiu hurriedly helped him up.
Ye Chen was bewildered by this comment, but without dwelling on it, quickly spoke, "Elder Han, from now on, Ye Chen will take you as my guide, to repay your kindness to Deadman Peak and to us brothers... If you are unwilling, Ye Mou will knock myself to death here today."
Wen Jiu paused for a moment, deciding not to hide any longer. He did not want his master Ye Chen to live his later years filled with gratitude towards him. Because in fact, he owed Ye Chen, not the other way around.
The teaching grace of the Yinzhou Heterodox Record should be higher than the heavens!
