Chapter 98: Innate Pill Meridians
Wang Luo’s face was ashen as he lay on the ground. He felt that his life no longer held any meaning.
Even a small family in such a barren land like the Southern Region could step on him and rub his face on the ground. He even felt that he was truly a good-for-nothing piece of trash.
Although the Wang family of the Northern Region was an aristocratic clan with a long history of studying the Dao of alchemy, they did not know how to solve the inexplicable defects in his body.
He was destined to be reduced to a poor abandoned child, a small pawn among the common people.
Wang Luo was confused.!!
He did not know where he should go or how he could resolve the inexplicable defects in his body.
Even a small family like the Chu family did not value his talent or potential. He did not have the qualifications to seek refuge with a bigger family, or even an alchemy sect.
“Sigh, it looks like life has not been easy for you. I’ll give you these 10,000 crystals.”
Looking at the desolate young man who was lying on the ground with a hopeless expression, Chu Tianming sighed.
Life was not easy for this young man.
He had only learned some half-baked skills, yet he had tried to come here to cheat others out of a living.
If he had appeared a few years earlier while Chu Yun was still secretly studying alchemy, the Chu family might have really valued him and given him preferential treatment.
Looking at Wang Luo’s downtrodden appearance, Chu Tianming shook his head. He did not plan to pursue the matter of him coming here to cheat them.
He instead gave him some money. If he were to rise up one day, he would at least remember the good deeds of the Chu family.
10,000 crystals was but a pittance to the current Chu family.
The storage bag containing 10,000 crystals was placed next to Wang Luo’s body, and Chu Tianming and the others left.
Wang Luo lay on the ground, tears of sorrow flowing down from his reddened eyes.
“I’m a good-for-nothing piece of trash. So I’m really a good-for-nothing piece of trash!”
Even if he was expelled by the Wang family and had his marriage engagement broken off by a small family, his arrogance and pride had not diminished in the slightest. He firmly believed that he could rise up.
He wanted to become a world-renowned expert in the Dao of alchemy.
He wanted to make the Wang family regret their actions. He wanted to make the people who broke off the marriage engagement feel endless regret!
In the end, Wang Luo discovered that he was really a good-for-nothing piece of trash. His dreams of ascension were nothing more than self-deception.
Seeing Wang Luo lying on the ground with a deathly pale expression and not moving at all, a nearby guard felt speechless.
“Get up. Compared to the chosen ones of the Chu family, you might be a good-for-nothing piece of trash, but there are many more out there who are in worse situations.”
“If your talent in pill refinement isn’t good enough, then don’t refine pills. How old are you? You’re already at the sixth level of the profound realm at your age. Your talent is much higher than mine, so what’s there to be upset about?”
Wang Luo felt even more bitterness in his heart when he heard this. How could a mere guard understand his ambitions?
He staggered to his feet and looked at the bag of spirit crystals. After hesitating for a moment, he took the bag.
Had it been his previous self, he would not have accepted it. His pride made it impossible for him to accept the charity of others.
However, now that he had realized that he was just a good-for-nothing piece of trash, what was the point of being prideful?
He was practically penniless. This was not the time to be arrogant.
Wang Luo staggered away. His eyes were lifeless and aimless.
When the guard saw Wang Luo leaving, he opened his mouth to remind him, but he eventually shook his head and stayed silent instead.
A mere sixth level profound stage martial artist would not be able to stir up any waves in the Chu family’s territory. Moreover, he was not headed toward the core area of the Chu family’s territory, but the outskirts.
Naturally, what happened in the Chu family’s territory did not escape Chu Xuan’s attention.
The kid had been slapped in the face instead of succeeding in a cool fashion.
After such a long time had passed, a person with great luck had finally arrived.
Chu Xuan calmly waited as he watched Wang Luo stumble over to the small courtyard.
His second disciple was here.
The Heaven’s Secrets Origin probing technique was used, revealing Wang Luo’s origins.
Chu Xuan was speechless. Why were all the fated persons abandoned by their families?
On second thought, perhaps it was due to their status as fated persons. The family he belonged to did not have enough resources and could not bear his fate, resulting in him becoming an abandoned child who was expelled.
“Wang Luo is the fated person of the current generation of the Northern Region and the illegitimate son of the Wang family, an aristocratic family specializing in the Dao of alchemy. He was born with pill meridians, and has extremely high talent in the Dao of alchemy. When he was young, he was attacked by an evil person, and his pill meridians were accidentally severed.”
Wang Luo was born with pill meridians, and his talent in the Dao of Alchemy was outstanding. Unfortunately, when he was young, he had been attacked by an evil person, and his pill meridians were accidentally severed. Although he had excellent talent, thanks to his severed pill meridians, he was unable to use it.
Pill meridians were like Ding Yue’s Heaven’s Will sword pulse. They were considered a special talent and also a special type of constitution that was rarely seen in the world.
Therefore, even the Wang family, an aristocratic family that focused on studying the Dao of alchemy, did not discover Wang Luo’s natural pill meridians. Otherwise, they would have done everything possible to reconnect his pill meridians.
Although he was an illegitimate, as long as Wang Luo’s father was not a retard, he would not abandon such an outstanding son.
Wang Luo had been attacked when he was young. This matter seemed somewhat special. It seemed that it had not been done by someone from the Wang family, but was rather related to his mother.
Three years ago, Wang Luo’s mother had left home to find a way to solve his body’s flaws. Since then, there had been no trace of her. Wang Luo’s situation took a turn for the worse as well.
The people who had schemed against him back then actually did not know that he had natural pill meridians. However, because they had severely injured Wang Luo back then, his pill meridians had unexpectedly been severed.
What a tragic fellow.
Moreover, Chu Xuan could also see that Wang Luo had been crushed in a pill battle with someone else, causing the Wang family to believe that he had completely disgraced the Wang family’s pill dao. Expelling him was in itself a plot against him.
His fiancée had someone else she fancied, so she planned this debacle to find an excuse to break off her marriage engagement with Wang Luo.
As expected of a fated person. He had unexpectedly come to the Southern Region and even ran over to the Chu family’s territory.
Wang Luo was walking in a daze when he spotted a small courtyard. His footsteps paused, and he hesitated in his heart as to whether or not he should stay in the small courtyard.
If he used the excuse of rewarding the Chu family for their spirit crystals and refined some medicinal pills for the Chu family, he would be able to stay in the Chu family. He would then have a place to stay and slowly search for a solution to his body’s defects.
At this moment, a voice entered his ears.
“Young man, do you feel that your future is uncertain?”
“Do you feel that you have lost your direction in life?”
“Are you willing to remain downtrodden, exiled, abandoned, and reduced to being a piece of trash?”
“Do you ever think of rising up? To make those who once looked down on you feel regret?”
Wang Luo’s body trembled as he looked towards the small courtyard.
“Senior, who are you?”
“I am known as the beacon of hope for lost souls, the savior of all the trash in the universe. Young man, as long as you are trash, if you study under me, you will make those who once abandoned you feel regret.”
Wang Luo’s face was filled with shock. He had a feeling that this senior was not being very serious.
He swallowed his saliva, and his heart pounded rapidly. “Senior, I became trash because of a flaw in my body…”
“No matter what the reason is, as long as you’re trash, you are worthy of being saved by me. You can be reborn.”
Chu Xuan’s voice was ethereal, as if it had emerged from ancient times.
He had used a small time-based technique. Of course, he had used it inside his domain. To him, fooling Wang Luo, a mere profound realm cultivator, was a piece of cake.
Wang Luo was shocked and excited. Had he encountered an unimaginable expert?
A great opportunity!
Wang Luo hurriedly entered the small courtyard.
“Junior Wang Luo greets Senior!”
As soon as he entered the small courtyard, he wanted to bow.
“Kneel down and kowtow. Acknowledge me as your master.”
Wang Luo slightly raised his gaze and saw seven-colored divine light flashing around. A figure that exuded heaven-shaking power sat upright on the chair.
Plop!
Wang Luo was so shocked that he directly knelt down.
