Wang Chuci had a premonition that if the master was not satisfied with him, he would not have told him these things at all. Since he called him over and told him everything, it was very likely that he had passed the assessment!
But when he really heard the master say in a positive tone that he would pass on the skills to him, he couldn't help but feel ecstatic. It was as if his dream had come true, and it seemed as if the floor under his feet had become empty.
Could the technique that Master Zhao took so much trouble to examine before deciding on the right person to inherit be just an ordinary one? Definitely not! It must be at least Earth Rank, or even Heaven Rank, right?
Thinking of this, Wang Chuci's heart beat even more violently, as if it was about to jump out of his throat.
Without hesitation, he swore an oath right then and there: "I, Wang Chuci, swear today that I will never again kill innocent people or bully the weak. If I break this oath, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death!"
After the oath was made, the oath pattern on his forehead disappeared in a flash, representing that he had made a contract with the Heavenly Dao. If he violated the oath in the future, the words in the oath would become reality.
Xue Huan took out the emerald green jade slip that was full of vitality from her sea of consciousness and pressed it against Wang Chuci's brow. The jade slip struggled for a bit and didn't want to go in.
This jade slip is engraved with an immortal-level technique, and its material is also quite extraordinary. It has already developed consciousness. If it really doesn't want to enter Wang Chuci's sea of consciousness and pass the technique to him, she can't force it to drink water.
But when she had come into contact with Wang Chuci before, hadn't it become agitated for a moment? She thought it was surprised to discover the successor.
Don't tell her that it doesn't want to, otherwise it will cause a big misunderstanding.
After a moment's thought, Xue Huan handed the jade slip to Wang Chuci. "The technique is engraved on this jade slip. Although your cultivation has been crippled, your consciousness should still be there. As you can see, the jade slip isn't very willing to accept you yet. But I believe you can do it. A strong woman is afraid of a clinging man. Ah, water dripping wears away a stone. As long as you communicate with it patiently, you will eventually be able to impress it, and then you will be able to see the technique inside."
Anyway, she would never let this thing enter her consciousness again.
As if she had gotten rid of a hot potato, Xue Huan patted Wang Chuci on the shoulder, gave him an encouraging look, and left impatiently, leaving Wang Chuci and Yu Jian speechless.
The jade slip wanted to chase Xue Huan, but Wang Chuci subconsciously held it in his hand and refused to let it run away no matter how it rushed around.
The cultivation method recorded on such a spiritual jade slip must be quite extraordinary, right? He must not let it go!
No matter how spiritual the jade slip was, it was just a jade slip after all, and it had no destructive power. After impacting for a while, it stopped.
Wang Chuci was afraid that it would run away, so he found a red rope and wrapped it tightly around his neck to ensure that it could not break free no matter what. Then he tied a knot and put the jade slip around his neck.
Jade slip: "..."
The jade slip was so angry that it started to make a fuss and slapped his chest, but Wang Chuci also showed extraordinary tenacity. No matter how it made a fuss, he refused to untie it.
Anyway, Master Zhao has passed on the skills to him, so this jade slip will be his from now on.
He also gave the jade slip a name - Yu'er.
He talks to it tirelessly every day, as if he were treating it as an intelligent creature.
"Yu'er, I have to go to the Pill Pavilion to work. In a few days, my apprenticeship will be over and I can be promoted to a regular employee! By then, my monthly salary will definitely increase a lot..."
"When I get my wages, I'll buy two pieces of cloth and ask my mother to make me a new set of clothes. I'll also buy a pound of spirit beast meat and make a delicious meal."
"Yu'er, do you want to eat? Oh, I forgot, you are a jade slip, so you shouldn't need to eat."
…
She kept nagging him every day, which annoyed Yulu so much that he finally pretended to be dead and hung around his neck without moving.
Until... Wang Chuci brought a spirit stone close to it.
As a jade slip made of fairy jade, it has been consumed in the lower realm for so many years that the fairy energy in it has been almost consumed. Otherwise, it would not have fallen into the hands of a mortal and been tortured by him.
Although the spiritual energy could not restore it to its original strength, it was better than nothing. The jade slip could not resist the temptation and absorbed the spiritual stone.
This suction is like turning on a mechanism. I feel uncomfortable if I don’t suck in a few spirit stones every day.
The burden suddenly increased, and Wang Chuci felt pressured but also happy. At least the jade slip was willing to respond to him, right? Although this response was just asking for spirit stones to eat.
In order to impress the jade slip as soon as possible and obtain the skills inside, Wang Chuci could only try his best to satisfy it, and provide spirit stones for it to absorb with pain and joy.
Fortunately, he has now been promoted to a full-time employee. Relying on the good relationships he had accumulated when he was an apprentice, he can now get a considerable commission every day. Otherwise, he really couldn't afford Yu Jian, who was a big consumer of spirit stones.
Just when Wang Chuci's life was on track and he had greater hope for the future, the Wang family came to his door in a threatening manner, "Take him away!"
The leader was Wang Qiumin, Wang Jian's son. When enemies meet, they are extremely jealous of each other. As soon as Wang Qiumin saw Wang Chuci, he wanted to tear him apart.
At his command, the people he brought rushed forward to grab Wang Chuci and take him away.
As a result, as soon as he reached the door, he was bounced back by the formation set up around the Medicine Pavilion and fell heavily to the ground.
The shopkeeper came out and said, "The Wang family is so powerful that they've come to arrest people from Narcissus Pavilion! Wang Chuci belongs to Narcissus Pavilion. I wonder who dares to lay a hand on him!"
Wang Chuci was touched by the shopkeeper's protection.
Wang Qiuming stared at Wang Chuci intently and grinned, "Alright, let's see if you at Narcissus Pavilion can protect him for the rest of his life!"
After making these harsh remarks, he left with his men.
Thinking of his mother who was placed in a rented house, Wang Chuci felt worried, but he did not show it on his face. He bowed and thanked the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper waved his hand and said, "You are from our Dan Yao Pavilion. Isn't it my duty to protect you? Don't worry, just continue to work."
What happened at the Alchemy Pavilion soon reached Xue Huan.
She said to Qing Yuan, "Place Wang Chuci's mother in the Narcissus Pavilion to relieve him of his worries. As for the Wang family, I still remember their previous attempt to poison Changming. Add to that what happened today, and I'll definitely get back at them sooner or later. For now, let's hold off. The Yellow Springs Secret Realm is about to open. When that happens, we'll teach the Wang family a lesson and let them know that we at the Narcissus Pavilion are not to be trifled with."
Qing Yuan: "Well, okay, I will control the people below during this period of time."
In the Yaoguang Building, Xue Huan put down the jade slip and continued to play ball with Su Bao.
