Who Brought Him into the Cultivation World?-Chapter 342 - 284: The Kidney-Stealing Demon

The fishing village wasn’t large, with around a hundred or so households, but it was bustling with activity. Han Yu realized just then that the path he took naturally formed a small market.

He wondered if it was just an illusion, but he felt like someone had started following him since he entered the market.

"It’s not an illusion; that fat guy behind you is definitely following you."

The Artifact Spirit spoke up, and then its expression turned peculiar.

Because the fat guy, after following for a short while, suddenly darted away at the corner.

After Han Yu walked a bit further, the feeling of being followed returned.

"This time, there are four!"

Through Han Yu’s body, the Artifact Spirit could clearly see the four sneaky figures behind them.

Before Han Yu could act, the four figures surrounded him.

"This is a robbery!"

It was the fat guy speaking, now with wide eyes, trying to look fierce and menacing.

The other two men and one woman also seemed to be trying hard to make fierce expressions.

Han Yu was utterly shocked by this scene, and then he looked at these four with a strange gaze.

Where did these simpletons come from, daring to rob him?

The leading fat guy had an oversized, flabby body with small, beady eyes on his chubby face, not quite harmonious in build.

The second man had a dark complexion as if he had been exposed to the sun for years, yet he was dressed in the attire of a noble family’s cultivator.

The third man and the last woman dressed normally and had unremarkable physiques. However, both were struggling to hold back laughter, seemingly on the verge of bursting out.

Only someone with such an astounding disguise technique could be this bored—a vulgar one!

That means the second man must be his cousin.

There’s no need to guess further, the two with lousy acting must be Yi Xian and Coconut.

Han Yu’s mouth curled into a mischievous grin as he pretended not to know and suddenly struck out, landing a punch on the vulgar fat guy.

"Wait!"

The wind whooshed violently, the Wind Thunder Fist was extremely powerful, terrifying the fat guy into jumping and shouting in fright.

Just as he was about to speak, Han Yu kicked him in the butt from behind.

"Ouch... Let me explain."

The fat guy, with a pained expression, tried to continue speaking, but Han Yu sternly refused, "I don’t want to hear it."

For a while, the two caused chaos, or rather, the vulgar fat guy was chased around by Han Yu, jumping up and down.

Moreover, Han Yu deliberately avoided hitting any part other than the guy’s butt.

Not long after, the vulgar guy couldn’t take it anymore, gritted his teeth, leaped into the air, and tried to escape with three agile steps, but turning around, Han Yu appeared behind him again with another kick.

"I’m done playing!"

The vulgar guy quickly wiped his face, turned around, and swiftly changed back to the scholarly face. His round body deflated like a balloon, slimming down instantly.

"I’m done playing!"

The vulgar guy repeated, speaking continuously. He wasn’t stupid; considering the other’s strength and his own, he realized his persistence without any real hit must have been intentional.

And besides, he even used his Unique Cultivation Technique, Ascension in One Step, and Han Yu deliberately ignored it; it was definitely on purpose.

He said it wasn’t a good idea to play dress-up with a group, and he was proven right.

After coming down from the sky, the vulgar guy looked irritatedly at Han Yu, furious that this guy silently recognized him and took the opportunity to hit him.

After the vulgar guy reluctantly put away the disguise tools, everyone finally had normal faces again.

"Why are you guys here? Especially you, didn’t your cousin go back?"

Han Yu curiously asked the group. Last he heard, they were supposed to be visiting the Mo Family, why were they back at the East Sea again?

Especially his cousin, who had been anxious to return home for research after hearing that the Judge and Ox’s Magical Treasures were sent to the Mo Family. Mo Yang with his Divine Techniques had also gone back a few days ago.

Logically, he should have stayed at the Mo Family to study the Divine Techniques; why on earth would he come out here?

His cousin, with a cheeky grin, pointed at the vulgar guy and spoke up.

"It’s all because of him; he deserved that beating for sure."

The group moved to another place; there was an open-air tea house at the end of the market, so they went there.

"Are you here for the ranking announcement?"

After listening to their explanation, Han Yu rolled his eyes at them.

According to his cousin, he initially didn’t plan to go out, but the vulgar sea turtle wandered over from overseas. Having never seen such a grand event, he was dying to come and take a look.

In reality, not only the vulgar guy wanted to see it, but Yi Xian and Coconut were also extremely curious! So, the three goaded one another, and the cousin came along too.

"Don’t you know how dangerous it is? Did you forget about what happened at White Emperor City?"

Han Yu admonished his cousin, explaining that such excitement wasn’t easy to be a part of.

"That’s why we’re planning to disguise ourselves as ordinary people and watch from afar when the time comes."

The commoner said with a cheeky smile, then suddenly changed the subject, "Since you’re here, let’s not disguise and go openly."

With an expert like Han Yu around, anything suspicious could be left for him to handle.

That’s what he planned anyway.

"Guess who we ran into here?"

Cousin suddenly came over mysteriously, with a teasing expression.

"You Li?"

Han Yu guessed.

"No, we’ve been here two days and haven’t seen her."

Cousin shook his head immediately, and then urged him to guess again.

Han Yu shook his head. Other than You Li, he really couldn’t guess.

"Bai Xiangdong!"

Cousin revealed the mystery with an inexplicable smile.

Bai Xiangdong?

According to Old Ling, wasn’t this guy supposed to be sent to Nanling City as a tool man?

How could he still be encountered here?

Tsk tsk!

Cousin shook his head dramatically beside him, saying exaggeratedly, "When we first arrived here, we saw that guy clutching his stomach flying from the direction of Nanling City, covered in blood! He looked miserable."

Corpse Refining Lineage!

Han Yu’s first thought was this. Besides them, who else would target the head disciple of Dragon and Phoenix Palace, definitely aiming to mess with the Celestial Pride List again.

But something’s off!

Given their methods, knowing it’s a plan by the Inspectorate, they should also know Bai Xiangdong is a tool man in plain sight, cutting him down wouldn’t help!

"Were the injuries serious?"

Han Yu asked. Although he wasn’t very familiar with this guy, he had lent a hand in White Emperor City, and wasn’t all that annoying. According to Ye Hei, this guy seemed a bit pitiful.

"Not serious at all."

Cousin responded with a mysterious expression, shaking his head, then continued, "Just had both kidneys pierced, needs rest, he’s been really weak these past two days!"

-----------------

"I’m not weak at all!"

In a temporarily rented house, Bai Xiangdong lay back on the bed. Though it was early autumn, the weather wasn’t too cold, but these past two days he just felt uneasy all over.

When Cousin brought Han Yu over to see him, he casually bought a pair of pig kidneys on the way, and as he dumped them on the table upon entering, Bai Xiangdong’s face turned green immediately.

Especially when he saw Han Yu, his expression turned incredibly awkward.

"How many people have you told about me getting my kidneys stabbed?"

Bai Xiangdong complained to Cousin, filled with shame and anger.

This kind of humiliating affair was already infuriating enough, not to mention being caught by Cousin and others, and this big mouth even spread it around.

"Are your injuries alright?"

Han Yu held back his laughter, asking with concern.

"Just minor injuries, kidneys are nothing to a cultivator!"

Bai Xiangdong spoke casually, but with gritted teeth. While the external injury was minor, the trauma to his psyche was enormous, which he lamented about.

Goodness, can you believe it?

He was just staying in Nanling City for one day, suddenly some woman came looking for him, without knowing where he offended her, she started attacking immediately.

Not only did she destroy the inn, they even fought up into the sky.

At first, the fight seemed normal, but gradually he realized her momentum was getting stronger.

Not only that, it felt like she was cheating, simultaneously controlling three magical artifacts to accurately target him.

"Three magical artifacts?"

Han Yu’s expression turned extremely odd at this.

If that’s how you put it, then a certain old acquaintance came to mind, he thought to himself.

"Do you know how vicious that woman is?"

Bai Xiangdong shivered recalling the scene.

"That short sword was so elusive, one moment it was in front of you, the next it was suddenly at your kidneys."

Stop it!

Han Yu couldn’t help but laugh and cry, these techniques even eliminate the need for guesses.

It must have been You Li.
