The Most Powerful Bodyguard
Chapter 1097: Astonished
"Emergency seclusion? Could it be that Yang’s cultivation encountered some misfortune?"
Xu Jie stood outside and pondered for a moment, then turned his right hand around, revealing a pill bottle with a slender neck.
"There are three Heart Cleansing Pills in here, not only can they eliminate heart demons, but also prevent them. Taking them during cultivation is even more beneficial. You can open the restriction later and give them to Yang."
This action by Xu Jie drew side glances from the people nearby.
Even Fatty Long Jie’s round face twitched twice involuntarily.
These are Heart Cleansing Pills! 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
And damn it, three of them!
This guy Xu Jie is really spending big money.
However, Long Jie, being the Third Prince, comes from strong roots.
He was not to be outdone, directly removing a token from his body and said:
"This is the Imperial Decree my father bestowed upon me, although it’s a royal item, it has special uses. Wearing it naturally gathers Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi."
This action by Third Prince Long Jie once again opened people’s eyes.
Turns out, winning someone over can be done this way!
The Heart Cleansing Pill, the palace plaque that comes with a Spirit-Attracting Array, aren’t they all top-prized items in everyone’s eyes?
The remaining nobles, even if they wished to make friends with Yang Yan, felt ashamed that they simply couldn’t produce anything valuable.
Even if they did, it would merely be to accompany Third Prince Long Jie and Xu Jie.
Since that’s the case, better not take out anything.
"Thank you. We’ll be off now, please tell Yang that we will visit next time."
Long Jie bowed respectfully and said.
"Safe travels."
At this moment, Gu Sheng was calm.
He seemed to understand that Yang Yan is now highly sought after, causing those noble descendants who were usually aloof and snobbish to have this attitude.
After Long Jie and his group left, the restriction on the cave mansion opened automatically.
Gu Sheng’s eyes lit up, he hurriedly grabbed the wooden plaque, pill bottle, palace plaque, and other items in his hands, running excitedly into the cave mansion.
"Young master, young master!"
Just a few steps in, he saw Yang Yan walking out of the study.
With Yang Yan’s cultivation level, how could he not know what happened outside the mansion?
"Young master, they’re... they’re all good stuff! Good stuff!"
Gu Sheng eagerly handed the items in his hands to Yang Yan, so excited he was nearly incoherent.
Yang Yan simply waved his hand, and the pill bottle and palace plaque disappeared.
The remaining wooden plaque was still in Gu Sheng’s hand.
It was Fang Yuan’s number 293 cave mansion wooden plaque.
Yang Yan glanced over it calmly, and said:
"You hold onto this, you can freely enter and exit the mansion’s restriction, but don’t perform a blood recognition to claim ownership, understand?"
One controls the restriction, the other enters and exits it, the privileges are naturally worlds apart.
But Gu Sheng was already thrilled beyond measure.
This was Yang Yan’s trust in him!
His plump body trembled slightly, and the wide gray robe swayed.
"Thud!"
Gu Sheng suddenly knelt down, looked up at Yang Yan, forcefully squeezed a few tears from his eyes.
"The young master sees me as trusted ally, I, Gu Sheng, will never betray the young master’s trust! From now on, even if it’s a matter of life and death, it only requires a single word from you!"
What a drama queen...
Yang Yan, carrying the pill bottle and palace plaque back to his room, took out two pills and put them in his hand.
Pure and flawless, although they had no pill fragrance, Yang Yan could see they indeed had good medicinal properties.
However, these were casually given by others, he dared not eat them just like that.
The Heart Cleansing Pills, I’ll save them.
Then Yang Yan picked up the jade palace plaque to inspect it, feeling the unique coolness of the jade.
This piece of jade is really good!
Even though Yang Yan has seen and owned countless treasures, he couldn’t suppress a feeling of admiration.
This Jade Pendant is just palm-sized, engraved with a fierce, clawed Azure Dragon.
This must be the Third Prince Long Jie’s personal Jade Pendant?
Holding it in his hand, Yang Yan clearly sensed the spiritual energy gathered towards him.
Within it, there must be a hidden Spirit-Attracting Array.
It’s comparable to being in a place with dense spiritual energy wherever Yang Yan goes.
Cultivating surely becomes twice as effective with half the effort.
However, for Yang Yan’s Flawless Divine Body, such an array appears to be useless.
If enough spiritual energy could allow Yang Yan to advance, his breakthroughs would be as easy as drinking water.
With the novelty gone, Yang Yan casually understood the purpose of the items, and then discarded them to the side.
Soon after, he took out the Wandering Dragon Star Mirror to read carefully.
Yang Yan spent the day at his new residence, except for some minor interruptions, the rest of the time was spent reading.
Among the books, he found low-level magic techniques for cultivators quite interesting.
For instance, the Sparks Set the Forest Ablaze move Fang Yuan used against him was merely a low-level Fire Control Technique.
All outer sect disciples cultivate low-level magic techniques.
Each magic technique has varying power depending on its practitioner’s skill.
Yang Yan effortlessly comprehended the fire attribute spiritual energy in the air just by reading the Fire Control Technique.
The next step, he directly guided the fire attribute spiritual energy to form a small flame in his hand.
The fireball looked ordinary, but whoever saw it would be alarmed by its terrifying power within.
"Hmm, not bad! It seems the application of power in this world is far more advanced than Earth."
Yang Yan nodded in satisfaction.
Although it’s fire, it didn’t burn its owner.
Moreover, since it’s magic, his mind controlled it effortlessly, words become law.
This fire can be used to attack or defend, all decided in a single thought by Yang Yan.
Time flew by.
The next day, the sun was bright, the breeze gentle.
Drops of rain fell from the sky, carried by the wind onto people’s bodies.
At this moment, standing alone on a small hill in Ten Thousand Mountains was none other than Yang Yan who hadn’t slept all night.
Despite sleeplessness, Yang Yan showed no signs of fatigue; on the contrary, he appeared even more energetic.
At this moment, his hands were clasped behind his back, the green robe gradually getting drenched.
The breeze brushed against him, invoking a refreshing sense.
He looked poetically at the distant scenery, couldn’t help but recite:
"Indeed, it’s the season of yellow plum rains, with every house graced by rain, and frogs singing in every pond. Truly a splendid scene!"
"That poem is quite good."
A bright female voice suddenly echoed from above.
Yang Yan couldn’t help but be speechless, turning to look, he noticed a woman gracefully walking down the hill.
In the north, there is a beauty, unmatched and solitary.
"I didn’t know the lady was here, pardon my presumptuousness."
At that moment, Yang Yan felt quite surprised inside.
Initially, upon waking up and being silently approached by Fatty Gu Sheng, he was puzzled.
Now, with a random woman approaching while he was in peak condition, without him noticing, it’s quite terrifying!
If an enemy were to stand behind you with a knife, yet you remained unaware, how alarming would that be?
Seems he needs to ask for advice from Gu Sheng.
Yang Yan silently resolved in his heart.
