I Am Immortal in Great Yu

Chapter 250: Chapter 100: Human Medicine (3)

’I’d like to see just how they dispose of these waste pills, filled with ultimate resentment.’

Fang Rui mused, silently tailing them.

After a series of twists and turns, he arrived at a stone chamber.

Inside the stone chamber was an enormous golden furnace. Crimson flames blazed within it, and a Treasure Pearl hovered above, casting down rays of pure light.

Pipes connected to the furnace, gathering the ultimate resentment from the core area. It was purified once inside the furnace, transformed into Yin Qi, and then expelled through pipes on the other side.

The two Zheng Family members tossed the black waste pills into the furnace and immediately turned to leave.

After they left.

Fang Rui appeared, his gaze fixed on the Treasure Pearl. A thought struck him: ’If I’m not mistaken, this furnace can wash the ’ultimate resentment’ from the waste pills and turn it into ’Yin Qi’. The core component must be that Treasure Pearl.’

He considered for a moment, then flicked his finger. A wisp of forceful wind shot out toward the Treasure Pearl as a test.

BUZZ!

Just an instant before it hit the Treasure Pearl, a torrent of Yin Qi surged from the golden furnace. It coalesced into an illusory Giant Python, which swallowed the forceful wind in one gulp, then turned toward Fang Rui, shaking its head and wagging its tail.

’A Giant Python? The ancient texts say the hui is a venomous snake, a kind of dragon!’

Fang Rui’s eyes narrowed. He struck out with his palm, and a surge of True Essence caused the illusory Giant Python formed from Yin Qi to instantly disintegrate from head to tail.

However, it was not over.

BUZZ! BUZZ! BUZZ! BUZZ!

In the blink of an eye, even more Yin Qi surged from the furnace, forming four Giant Pythons that charged at him.

"Break!"

Fang Rui used his hand as a blade, unleashing a Helical Blade Qi with his True Essence. He shattered the four Giant Pythons and retreated a certain distance before the golden furnace finally calmed down.

’With my skills, I could force my way through, smash the furnace, and snatch the Treasure Pearl, but that would cause too much of a commotion.’

Just as before, when he hadn’t killed the two Zheng Family minions to avoid needless trouble, he certainly wasn’t going to take extra risks for a Treasure Pearl of unknown function.

’Forget it. Time for a different approach!’

He thought for a moment, his gaze shifting to the pipe expelling Yin Qi from the golden furnace. ’Perhaps I can do what I did with the Exotic Beast Yan Snake and arrange for this golden furnace to have a ’reasonable explosion’.’

...

A quarter of an hour later.

In the secret chamber in Nanshan Garden, Yin Qi continuously built up and compressed within the golden furnace. The flames inside were suppressed lower and lower, and the light from the Treasure Pearl hovering above flickered erratically.

CRACKLE!

A few moments later, fine cracks began to appear on the Treasure Pearl.

They spread and connected, growing larger and larger...

Finally.

BOOM!

The furnace exploded.

The Treasure Pearl shattered. The compressed flames, Yin Qi, and ultimate resentment inside the golden furnace erupted like a volcano, exploding like a firecracker. They tore up the ground and spread out as a massive gray shockwave.

Wherever the gray shockwave passed, the land was contaminated by Yin Qi and ultimate resentment, directly altering the Earth Vein. The auspicious feng shui hotspot was transformed into a sinister and foreboding place, thick with ghostly energy.

"What’s happening?"

"This is... AHH!"

"This is bad! Quickly, circulate your Power to resist!"

...

Of the Zheng Family’s Martial Artists who had entered Nanshan Garden, the Middle Grade Martial Artists were still able to put up some resistance. But after the gray shockwave swept over them, the Low Grade Martial Artists turned ashen-faced and collapsed one after another, like wheat being scythed.

...

’That was one hell of a firecracker.’

On a distant mountain, Fang Rui watched the gray shockwave spread through Nanshan Garden like a mushroom cloud, his expression utterly indifferent.

He felt not a shred of pity for the Zheng Family members. It was safe to say that if you killed every last one of them, you wouldn’t find more than one or two innocents.

’Huh?!’

Fang Rui’s eyes suddenly narrowed.

He was stunned to see a spot in the southeastern corner of Nanshan Garden that was acting like a black hole, voraciously devouring the ultimate resentment and Yin Qi dissipating into the air.

’That must be the Yin Corpse that the Zheng Family ancestor transformed into. I wonder if it will grow even stronger after this wave?’

’But what the hell does that have to do with me?!’

This was outside the city, within Nanshan Garden. If anyone was going to be unlucky, it would be the Zheng Family members in the garden first.

Fang Rui couldn’t be bothered with it and strode away.

...

Fang Rui dusted himself off and left, but the explosion he had orchestrated in Nanshan Garden caused a massive uproar in the city.

...

"Divine Constable Zheng, I heard your family’s ’Washing Resentment Furnace’ exploded?" That afternoon, Zhou Changfa heard the news and sought out Zheng Jinghan to confirm.

"Yes, Lord Si Zheng."

Zheng Jinghan replied with a pained expression, "After we reclaimed Nanshan Garden, we were clearing out some waste pills when the ’Washing Resentment Furnace’ exploded. It was probably because of that giant Burial Flower. The last batch of waste pills we threw in must have been the straw that broke the camel’s back."

Indeed, he did not suspect foul play, only that his family had been terribly unlucky.

"How truly unfortunate!"

Zhou Changfa kept a straight face as he patted Zheng Jinghan’s shoulder. "The Washing Resentment Furnace itself is no great loss, but its companion, the Purifying Spirit Pearl, is extremely precious. You’ll have to go to the State City and beg an Upper Grade Spirit Master for a new one."

"Of course, your Zheng Family is wealthy and powerful. A thousand gold pieces spent can always be earned back, can’t they!"

"Thank you for your comfort, Lord Si Zheng." Zheng Jinghan’s eye twitched repeatedly. Suppressing his frustration, he hastily excused himself.

After he left.

"How dare they treat me like a dancing monkey? Bah! Serves them right! WUAHAHAHA!"

Zhou Changfa let out a great laugh. "Give the order! This old man is pleased today. We’ll feast at the Drunken Immortal Tower and listen to music!"

...

"They brought this upon themselves. It’s karma."

At White Cloud Temple, Ge Changgeng stroked his beard and smiled when he heard the news.

...

"The Zheng Family has suffered a huge loss this time. Their Third Grade ancestor is dead, the ’Washing Resentment Furnace’ exploded, Nanshan Garden has turned into a sinister and foreboding place, and they still have to deal with the aftermath..."

Sun Shouchai said with a laugh, "Now that his Lordship has arrived, devouring the Zheng Family will be much easier."

"It’s a pity Zhou Changfa and the Zheng Family didn’t clash, which would have allowed his Lordship to take power sooner..." Zhang Henshui said with regret.

"That doesn’t matter. The Court has its rules, and his Lordship is in no hurry."

Sun Shouchai looked at Zhang Henshui. "By the way, his Lordship asked me to relay a message to Divine Constable Zhang: One must abide by the rules. Especially the Court’s rules."

"This..."

Zhang Henshui’s body trembled.

He had previously suggested tampering with the ’Great Sun True Yang Array’ behind his Lordship’s back. The goal was to let the giant Burial Flower that connected heaven and earth spread, which would in turn force Zhou Changfa to step down early.

But Sun Shouchai had refused, and he had evidently reported the matter to his Lordship.

"Ah, Divine Constable Zhang, we must act according to the rules. If one doesn’t follow the Court’s rules, one ends up like the Zheng Family. Don’t you agree?" Sun Shouchai said with a beaming smile.

"Yes! Yes!" Zhang Henshui wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

...

The city’s common folk were also discussing the matter.

"The Zheng Family is so unlucky! A shift in the Earth Vein, and their prime feng shui land in Nanshan Garden turns into a sinister, foreboding place. What terrible luck!" someone said, gloating.

"A shift in the Earth Vein? That’s the story the Zheng Family is spreading themselves. Who are they trying to fool!" said someone who saw through the lie.

"Isn’t that the truth? To have a place of such natural spiritual beauty turn directly into a sinister, foreboding land... who knows what kind of wicked deeds the Zheng Family has been doing behind the scenes..." The latter half of the sentence was spoken in a hushed whisper.

"You never know, maybe the recent disappearances of infants and young children in the city are related to the Zheng Family..."

"Very likely. It’s retribution! The heavens have opened their eyes at last!"

...

The Zheng Family’s reputation in the city plummeted.

...

And just as the city was in an uproar.

Evening.

Amidst the dreary wind and rain, Fang Rui returned to the Fang Mansion in his carriage.
