Swallowing the Stars: Recruiting Apprentices and Getting Cash Back

Feng Yuzi, with his white hair and youthful face, stood on a flying sword, exuding an air of otherworldly grace, yet his eyes revealed a fierce glint.

Although Qin De was just an ordinary person, he was the younger brother he had taken in. Who dared to run wild in the Prince's mansion?

"Get down here!" Nuolanshan was furious. He stretched out a large hand and pulled Feng Yuzi down from the sky.

Feng Yuzi did try to resist, but he found that he couldn't resist at all and couldn't move his body at all.

Although he was a top-tier fighter on the Qianlong Continent, he was only at the Golden Core stage, which corresponds to a Hengxing level in the universe. Compared to Nuolanshan, he was as weak as an ant.

As Feng Yuzi was being dragged down, she knew she was doomed. She had kicked a hornet's nest; this person must be at least at the Nascent Soul stage.

What's going on?! Why would a Nascent Soul stage monster come to this small, barren land of the Hidden Dragon Continent?

I'm doomed, I'm doomed.

"You're the one for the Hengxing level." Nuolanshan started punching and kicking Feng Yuzi to vent his anger.

Mortals are fragile and can't take a beating, while Eternal Stars are barely qualified to be punching bags.

"Ouch! Spare me, senior! Spare me, senior!" Feng Yuzi screamed and wailed. Before long, her nose and eyes were swollen and she looked like a ghost.

"Please, Immortal, stop!" Qin De rushed over to stop them.

call--

After beating Feng Yuzi, Nuolanshan's anger subsided by half, and he stopped beating her to give Qin De some face.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding. Immortal, this is Brother Feng Yuzi, a retainer of my royal palace. Brother Feng, this is Yu'er's master, Immortal Lei Wei." Qin De helped Feng Yuzi up and then introduced the two.

"Yu'er's master? How come I don't know?" Feng Yuzi asked in surprise.

"I just became your disciple today, and I haven't had a chance to inform Brother Feng yet," Qin De explained.

"Since it's a misunderstanding, then leave. Be more careful in the future; I don't like people talking down to me. If it weren't for the Prince's sake, I would have executed him without mercy," Nuolanshan said arrogantly.

"It was my fault, I'll leave now, I'll leave now." Despite being beaten to a pulp, Feng Yuzi not only didn't complain, but left happily as if she had been granted a pardon.

Even after walking a distance, Nuolanshan could still hear Feng Yuzi and Qin De whispering to each other.

Qin De asked, "Brother Feng, just how powerful is that immortal?"

"At the very least, he should be at the Nascent Soul stage, or even possibly the Void Realm. I'm really lucky today, and your Qin family is truly blessed. Hey, hey, hey, Qin De, are you even listening?" Feng Yuzi glared at Qin De, who was already dumbfounded.

Although Qin De was only a martial artist, he also had some understanding of the cultivation realms of cultivators because of Feng Yuzi.

Above the Innate Realm is the Golden Core, followed by the Nascent Soul, the Void Realm, and the Tribulation Transcending Realm. After that, one ascends to the Upper Realm to become an immortal.

Lei Wei is at least at the Nascent Soul stage, and very likely at the Void Realm. My God! You must know that even on the other side of the sea, Void Realm experts are not common.

As long as we win over this person, what does it matter if we unify the entire Qianlong Continent, let alone some damned Chu Dynasty?

"Guards! Guards! Gather every book of strange tales and unusual stories, the older and more obscure the better!" Qin De roared.

"Brother Qin, what is the reason for this?" Feng Yuzi did not understand why Qin De was collecting these books. Qin De was a warrior and certainly not a cultured person.

"It's what that immortal needs. By the way, Brother Feng, do you have any books like this? They must be about strange tales and anecdotes from the cultivation world, and they must be quite special," Qin Deyan said.

"Strange tales and anecdotes from the cultivation world." Feng Yuzi frowned and pondered for a moment, then suddenly thought of something and said, "I'll go back to my cave."

Feng Yuzi arrived quickly and left quickly, disappearing in a flash while flying on her sword, without even having a chance to glance at Xiao Qinyu.

"Fine, fine, you insist on making me do it step by step, huh? Fine, fine, I'll revise it, cut and delete, okay?" After many attempts, Nuolanshan still couldn't write it successfully, and finally had no choice but to compromise.

He forgot that even the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual could not be contained by ordinary objects, let alone the even more advanced Nine-Nine Profound Technique. The jade disc that could contain it, though seemingly insignificant, was an extraordinary thing, something that could not have been produced by the primordial universe.

Subsequently, based on his own understanding of the first level of the nineteenth level, Nuolanshan simplified and deleted some parts, and finally succeeded in writing it on a rare metal.

Looking at the piece of metal, Nuolanshan finally smiled. It had been so difficult, so incredibly difficult. Now he finally had something to teach his apprentices.

Speaking of apprentices, where is my good-natured apprentice Qin Yu?

Nuolanshan scanned with his mental power and discovered that even though it was dark, Qin Yu was still running laps under the moonlight. Even though his legs were trembling and he was as slow as a snail, he still persevered and did not fall down, but continued to move forward.

His servants kept urging him to stop, but the boy had a stubborn streak and just kept moving forward.

"Wow, this child's willpower is incredible. It's hard to believe he's only six years old." Nolanshan couldn't help but admire Qin Yu's willpower, recalling how he was a little kid who would cry at the slightest thing and had no patience when he was six.

Nuolanshan didn't stop Qin Yu, but instead used his mental power to observe and see where Qin Yu's limit was. Even if Qin Yu collapsed on the ground from exhaustion, Nuolanshan could easily bring him back to life.

It doesn't even need to be a very precious elixir; just the life essence from the Earth base era will suffice, and only a single drop is needed.

"come on!"

"Good luck, Your Highness!"

With the bright moon hanging high in the sky, the servants no longer tried to persuade Qin Yu to give up, because there were only ten meters left to complete the goal of ten laps, and the gate of the Zhen Dong Prince's Mansion was just ten meters away.

Ah!

Qin Yu, who should have been exhausted, suddenly unleashed a burst of power from who knows where, and sprinted towards the final ten meters.

Ten meters, nine meters, eight meters… He arrived! As Qin Yu stood at the gate of the Zhen Dong Prince's Mansion, the child smiled happily and shouted, "Master! I'm done!"

Your Highness!

Qin Yu did indeed complete the task, but at the same time, he also collapsed. If it weren't for his strong willpower, he would have collapsed long ago.

A group of servants rushed forward to help him up, and the physician also rushed over, but they only felt a blur before their eyes, and when they could see clearly, Qin Yu, who had been in front of them, had disappeared.

Nuolanshan carried Xiao Qinyu to the bed in the courtyard like a gust of wind. With a drop of life essence fed to him, Xiao Qinyu fell into a sweet sleep. In his dream, he called out not only for his father but also for his mother.

"He's still just a child after all." Nuolanshan gently stroked Qin Yu's head.

If Devon saw this, he would roar, "Father, why have you never been so kind to me! You even abandoned the entire family!"

If this scene were to actually happen, Nuolanshan would retort, "I'm just a soul-swapping imposter, what feelings do I have for you? You've caused me trouble, I'm being lenient by not killing you all."

"Senior, are you here? Feng Yuzi requests an audience." At this moment, Feng Yuzi's voice came from outside the courtyard.
