Chapter 612: Chapter 419 Yin Yang Fusion Pill, Cultivation Skyrockets!_2

And the Yin Yang Qi contained within it, only he knew about now.

Feeling a lightness in his hand, the little beggar’s tensed heart instantly relaxed, and then he heard a voice by his ear:

“Stand up.”

Without daring to delay, the little beggar quickly stood up, respectfully standing beside Chen Yuan.

“Come with me.”

“Thank… thank you, Master!”

Overcome with joy, the little beggar nodded repeatedly. Chen Yuan smiled, turned, and headed toward the city gate. The little beggar thought for a moment and decided to pick up and sling the straw sandals he made over his shoulder.

They were the straw sandals that took him so long to weave, his labor of love – he couldn’t just throw them away.

And so, two figures, one tall and one short, became the curious spectacle of many onlookers, mainly because their pairing was quite a contrast. The young man in a black robe had a cold complexion and an extraordinary demeanor.

On the other hand, the boy next to him looked exactly like a beggar, even carrying a huge bundle on his back, truly catching the eye.

…

…

As the two left the city gates, during their casual conversation, Chen Yuan also learned about the little beggar’s past, which was quite tragic overall. He was abandoned by his birth parents from a young age, with the only token from them being a jade pendant.

Later, the kind adoptive parents who took him in passed away one after the other. To afford to make two thin coffins for his adoptive parents, the little beggar sold the only family property he had left to those uncles and elders.

If he didn’t sell it, being so young, he likely wouldn’t have received anything at all.

Afterward, he began to mingle in the beggar’s den of Changshan Prefecture.

And he also learned the little beggar’s real name.

Shi Yi!

The name was chosen by himself, wishing to be steadfast and indomitable, to step onto the path of Martial Arts.

Chen Yuan asked him why he was so fixated on the Martial Arts.

Shi Yi answered, saying he wanted to become a cut above the rest!

To become a hero admired by tens of thousands, to decide life and death with a single word, to shatter all his enemies with a punch.

Chen Yuan told him that the path of Martial Arts was not so easy, that cultivation was difficult and life and death uncertain. If he changed his mind, Chen Yuan could give him one hundred Silver Taels.

It would be enough for him to buy property and live a peaceful life.

But Shi Yi knelt before Chen Yuan, answering with a determined expression:

“My fate is in my own hands, not subject to the whims of heaven. Since my heart is set on the Martial Arts, I should push through thorns and brambles, advance bravely, and even in death, not have lived this life in vain due to my efforts.”

Chen Yuan looked calmly at the boy before him, seeing some of his former self in him. When he first set foot in this world and began to understand it, he thought the same way.

Now, he had already achieved initial success.

In Tangshan Prefecture, he was the hero admired by tens of thousands, his offhand words could determine the life and death of thousands, making them serve his cause.

“Ambitious, aren’t you?”

“Master is perceptive, but I am just…”

Chen Yuan waved his hand, uninterested in hearing the boy’s chatter, and went straight to the point:

“Don’t call me Master. I’m not interested in taking on disciples right now. Besides, your current strength is too weak. You’re not qualified to be my disciple. Wait until you’ve achieved Core Formation to say that.”

These words were not Chen Yuan being presumptuous. He felt that with his speed of cultivation, by the time Shi Yi achieved Core Formation, he would probably have already made a breakthrough in Yang Transformation, or even higher.

He had little interest in taking in a boy with no cultivation at all, let alone the time to carefully teach him.

“Master… I…”

Shi Yi was dumbfounded in an instant. He thought he had already agreed, but ironically, after leaving the city, he went back on his word. Wasn’t this like tricking a child?

“However, I can give you a chance. What you seek is nothing more than stepping into the Martial Arts; I have plenty of Cultivation Techniques to spare and can grant you one effortlessly,

Plus, I will give you some Silver Taels. If you still wish to take a master, go to the Heavenly Patrol Bureau in Qingzhou’s Tangshan and find a man called Yue Shan. Tell him that a nobleman surnamed Chen sent you, and have him guide you in the early stages of your cultivation.

Of course, if you have a better place in mind, I won’t stop you. The Cultivation Technique and Silver Taels I give you will be in exchange for this Jade Pendant.”

After saying that, Chen Yuan waved his hand, and one hundred neatly stacked Silver Taels appeared before Shi Yi, along with a thin booklet.

It was a Cultivation Technique he had obtained during a clan annihilation, quite a decent one that could be cultivated up to the Core Realm. The details recorded within were very meticulous too.

As long as he studied diligently, with Shi Yi’s talent, it was quite possible that he might achieve something notable in the future.

For Shi Yi, these items were far more valuable than just a Jade Pendant. Although the Yin Yang Jade Pendant was extraordinary, Shi Yi had no method of harnessing Yin Yang Qi, making it utterly useless in his hands.

In this way, Chen Yuan had done all that honor and duty required.

This effortless act was nothing significant for him…

Gazing at the items before him, Shi Yi was deeply tempted. Weren’t these exactly what he had dreamed of? But after pondering for a moment, he still shook his head and said:

“I wish to follow by Master’s side, even if it’s just to serve tea and water.”

“I don’t need those services. You would only be a burden by my side. The items are yours, the opportunity is laid before you, the choice is yours to make. Goodbye…”

Having said that, Chen Yuan soared into the sky and flew off into the distance.

Watching the fading light in the sky, Shi Yi belatedly called out loudly:

“Rest assured, Master, your disciple will wait for your return in Qingzhou’s Tangshan Prefecture!”

Then, he bowed deeply three times toward Chen Yuan’s departing figure and eagerly began to read the Cultivation Technique in his hand, the one hundred Silver Taels utterly unimportant to him…

Atop an unnamed peak in Changshan Prefecture.
