Can't Afford to Offend My Scheming Disciple

25. The Trial X

Translator: Alanese Fantasy

“Why should I accept your relics?” Nan Chen knew that he could not directly accept it because in his last life, he had done that, which made him go through many following trials. Even when he had finally managed to accept his relics, Nan Chen had had to bear the pain of broken his meridians.

The reason had turned out to be that he had not been on his guard and easily to be deceived. Therefore, the Mighty Person had set lots of tests for him. Thinking of the tests of not trusting others easily for two solid days in previous life, Nan Chen was somehow speechless.

The old man was obviously unhappy to hear that and said, “Hey, kiddo, will you just let your luck slide away?”

Nan Chen raised his eyebrows, “Why should I have that ‘luck’? There is no such thing as a free lunch. Who knows if it will cost more or not?”

Having been refuted by a young man, the old man didn’t feel offended but laughed, “Good, good, I’ve done the right choice.”

“But, kiddo, it’s not something you can choose.”

From the center of the Mighty Person’s chest, a flash of bright light burst out and shot towards Nan Chen.

Nan Chen barely had time to escape when the light shot into his body.

The light swerved in Nan Chen’s body and finally stopped at his Sense Ocean. It turned into a figure who kept repeating some movements. At the same time, a certain cultivation method emerged from Nan Chen’s memory.

“Sit down and run your spiritual power according to the method in your mind.”

Nan Chen didn’t hesitate to do as what the old man had said to him.

He started to accept the Mighty Person’s relics. This time he didn’t undergo any desultory tests or trials. He only needed to bear the pain of broken meridians, which was quite acceptable for Nan Chen.

Drops of sweat slid down Nan Chen’s face but were evaporated by his heated spiritual power before the sweat fell to the ground.

If an ordinary person was hit by such a severe pain, he or she would already roll on the ground in pain. Having seen Nan Chen staying collected and still from beginning to the end, however, the old man had complex feelings. In fact, he did want to see the kid bearing pains like an ordinary person.

It took ten solid days to finish accepting the Mighty Person’s relics. During the ten days, pains that Nan Chen had to bear didn’t alleviate even a little bit.

Two days after, Nan Chen adapted to the severe pain. To put it clearly, he barely felt his body.

The old man was quite bored. In this vast underground palace, only two people were there. Technically, one person. Nan Chen didn’t talk while the old man was just a remnant ghost, who could not ever leave the palace.

Therefore, the old ghost had no choice but to drift about in the underground palace.

“I’m so curious, how did you see through the illusory land? I have to tell you, the add-ons in the mermaid candles are rather special. If I were trapped in the illusory land, I would not succeed in escaping from it for the add-ons can amplify the devil inside of the person to the maximum and emphasize the deepest desire in one’s heart.”

He floated to sit down beside Nan Chen.

Although Nan Chen couldn’t see where the old man was, he could feel warmth near him.

“The flaw of the illusory land was too obvious.”

This words apparently interested the old man, so he asked, “Oh? Tell me about it.”

“First of all, that man never lets anyone get so close to him, not even a mosquito. Secondly, I was so close to him, but he didn’t react at all. Even if he was asleep soundly, he would cast a ward at the door and set up many traps.”

“I know him too well and even better than himself.” Nan Chen said impassively.

Obviously, the old man was not satisfied with his answer, “Although I don’t know what you experienced in the illusory land, I can feel that you want to kill that person. If you get a chance, you definitely will kill him. Why, in the end, you didn’t do it?”

“It’s very simple. Opportunities have always been created by myself. I never believe in opportunities given to me by others.” Nan Chen said.

‘How could a cultivator of Tribulation Passage Period be killed so easily?’ Nan Chen didn’t say this last sentence though.

“Moreover, wouldn’t it be too merciful to kill him simply like that? I’m going to have him bear the pain I’ve undergone before. Just Death? How is that even possible? I’m going to make his life worse than death! I want him to beg me to kill him!”

As long as Nan Chen thought about what had happened in the last life, he couldn’t wait to skin the man and drink his blood at the same time.
