The Rebirth of the Cultivation Leader Qin Zhao as a Celebrity-Chapter 425 - 423 Master Has Gone Bad

"Disciple, I’m here!"

Just as Nan Xian arrived, he witnessed a black Dharma Seal descending again, nearly killing the two figures huddled together on the ground.

He leaped down from the Changyuan Sword, which automatically flew above Qin Zhao and Chu Yan, blocking a second Dharma Seal from the man in the black robe for them.

"Disciple, disciple..."

Nan Xian ran towards Qin Zhao and the others.

Not far away, Black and White Impermanence emerged from the ground, clenching the Soul Hook in their hands.

"What’s happening? Such powerful strength."

The two ghosts exchanged a glance, apprehension written across their faces.

They quickly floated over to Chu Yan, and the ghost energy emanating from them formed a Barrier, shielding Qin Zhao and Chu Yan.

The man in the black robe initially wanted to make another move.

But upon seeing Black and White Impermanence rushing over, his expression paused for a moment, and the miniaturized Dharma Seal in his hands slowly retracted.

He gazed deeply at the Changyuan Sword.

"Never mind, no rush."

Muttering to himself, the man in the black robe disappeared into the air.

"Disciple! Are you alright?"

Nan Xian reached their side and yanked Chu Yan aside, tossing him onto the open ground, then anxiously examined Qin Zhao’s condition.

"How can you treat a patient like that?"

Black Impermanence complained, while White Impermanence hurriedly helped Chu Yan up and fed him an elixir.

"Are you Black and White Impermanence? What did you give him?"

Nan Xian, seeing White Impermanence’s action, asked with suspicion.

"Essence Nourishing Pill, ever heard of it? Dullard!"

Black Impermanence expressed dissatisfaction with his behavior, thinking if something happened to their prince that prevented him from returning to continue working for the Netherworld Emperor, who would bear the responsibility?

"Essence Nourishing Pill?"

Nan Xian’s expression became a bit complex.

It was an incredibly potent elixir that could bring someone back with only a breath left.

He sighed, "Sorry, my fault for acting rashly just now. I was too worried about my disciple."

Nan Xian set down Qin Zhao and walked over to them.

"He is my disciple’s husband and also my junior. I need to see if what you gave him is indeed the Essence Nourishing Pill and whether it will harm his body!"

"How could we possibly harm him? We’re trying to save him! Look for yourself, has his energy not recovered somewhat? He was nearly pulseless just before!"

Nan Xian helped Chu Yan up, feeling for his pulse.

"Indeed, much improved."

After speaking, Nan Xian suddenly pressed the Changyuan Sword against Chu Yan’s neck.

"Give me an Essence Nourishing Pill! Or I’ll slay him!"

"???"

The ghosts looked dumbfounded, failing to understand his motive.

"Big brother, he is your disciple’s husband, how can you treat him like this!"

"He’s made a fool of me several times. I’ve been annoyed with him for a long while."

Nan Xian sneered coldly, "Stop with the useless chatter and hand over the Essence Nourishing Pill."

Seeing no response from the ghosts, the sword in his hand pressed closer to Chu Yan’s skin.

In an instant, the neck was nicked and blood began to flow.

"Don’t mess around! Here, have it!"

Black Impermanence spoke anxiously, then pushed White Impermanence.

"Lao Bai, give him the pill, we’ll just expense it with the Netherworld Emperor!"

White Impermanence, too, watched Nan Xian nervously and tossed a porcelain bottle to him.

"The last Essence Nourishing Pill, it’s yours."

Nan Xian opened the porcelain bottle and sniffed the elixir inside.

Confirming it was the Essence Nourishing Pill, he tossed Chu Yan back onto the ground.

The way he threw him was utterly heartless, mingled with personal grievances.

Black and White Impermanence caught Chu Yan in time and turned to see Nan Xian administering the Essence Nourishing Pill to Qin Zhao.

"You... if you were going to give it to her, couldn’t you have said so sooner? It’s not like we wouldn’t have given it."

"I don’t believe it," Nan Xian huffed. "You’re in cahoots with him, and you’re no good either."

The "him" naturally referred to Chu Yan.

Black Impermanence touched the tip of his nose, looking somewhat guilty.

If Nan Xian had asked directly, they indeed wouldn’t have given it to him.

Qin Zhao’s injuries weren’t very severe, not as critical as Chu Yan’s.

Essence Nourishing Pills were rare; together, they had only two, so it was impossible to give Qin Zhao another.

Who would have thought his own mentor would be so shameless?

Nan Xian had never done something like this before.

After doing it, his face turned red, and he felt a bit embarrassed inside.

He had no choice, after all, he had reincarnated in a mortal’s body and didn’t have such good elixirs.

Without the Essence Nourishing Pill, it was estimated that his disciple would need to recover for half a year.

Soon, Qin Zhao was the first to awake.

Seeing Nan Xian and Black and White Impermanence, she couldn’t help but be stunned.

"Did Chu Yan and I die?"

"No," White Impermanence replied irritably, "You are both very much alive."

It was just that he had lost two extremely valuable Essence Nourishing Pills!

White Impermanence said through clenched teeth, "You know about Essence Nourishing Pills, right? One for each of you, two in total; remember to pay me back!"

"We’ll pay you back, alright? Can you stop rushing things?"

Nan Xian coughed lightly and suddenly found the experience of swindling ghosts quite exhilarating.

Especially since these two ghosts were related to Chu Yan.

"Just two Essence Nourishing Pills? I worked hard for five years to earn these two pills as a reward, and you, a mere mortal, make it sound so trivial!"

White Impermanence was furious, and Black Impermanence poked him.

"That sword of his seems out of the ordinary; he might not be just a regular mortal."

Hearing this, White Impermanence’s expression softened somewhat.

"Regardless, you must return the two Essence Nourishing Pills to me!"

Qin Zhao first went to check on Chu Yan and found his breathing steady, with a force inside him repairing his injuries, though he had not yet awakened.

She let out a sigh of relief and held his hand tightly.

Then, Qin Zhao checked her own physical condition and found, to her surprise, that there were no injuries on her body.

Moreover, her body was full of Spiritual Power, not empty as before.

This must all be thanks to the Essence Nourishing Pill.

She said to White Impermanence, "Thank you, I will find a way to pay you back."

Qin Zhao sincerely apologized to him; such powerful and rare pills indeed couldn’t be taken for free.

"That’s more like it."

White Impermanence glared at Nan Xian beside her.

"We’ll be going now."

"Miss Qin, remember to tell Chu Yan that it was us who saved you, huh!"

Before leaving, Black Impermanence added with a smile.

"I will."

Though she didn’t know why, Qin Zhao still earnestly noted it down.

After the two ghosts left, Qin Zhao and Nan Xian brought Chu Yan back to the apartment.

Nan Xian held the Changyuan Sword, deep in thought.

"I arrived just in time to see the Dharma Seal being cast towards you.

If it weren’t for the Changyuan Sword blocking the attack of the Dharma Seal, you might have been in serious trouble today.

The aura on that Dharma Seal feels somewhat familiar to me."

"You find it familiar?"

Qin Zhao’s pupils shrank, and her heart trembled.

Nan Xian had experienced Ascension and became an immortal. The aura he found familiar—could it belong to some deity that had reincarnated from the heavens?

Just the giant’s illusion was enough to trap a Nascent Soul expert inside.

She and Tengshe joined forces but could not handle the giant in the illusion, only managing to keep avoiding its attacks.

Fortunately, in the end, they located the Array Eye, and with Tengshe holding off the giant, she was able to break the formation.
