I Don't Want to Be a Human Pill
Under the oppressive force of Han and Wei, Miao felt unable to move and had difficulty breathing. In just a few breaths, her face turned pale.
"Please, seniors, have mercy! My mother is a mortal, not a cultivator, and has no Spiritual Qi whatsoever," Tang Tiansong pleaded anxiously, bowing his hands as he looked at Tang Xingdou.
"Mother, these two are both powerful immortal masters, and they are both good people."
mortal?
But why is she wearing a protective robe of a fairly high grade?
Han and Wei were immediately relieved of the oppressive aura.
"Hoo..." Miao immediately exhaled, cupped her hands in greeting, and said, "Mortal Tang Miao greets the immortal masters. I was very rude just now, please forgive me."
A sweep of Divine Sense revealed that Miao indeed possessed no Spiritual Qi, and the steel knife she held was merely an ordinary mortal weapon. Only her magical robe retained a few wisps of Spiritual Qi.
Where did that powerful cultivator's Spiritual Qi energy come from?
Could the Spiritual Qi have come from the black spoon that Miao was holding?
Han Dahai and Wei Chen exchanged a glance, then walked up to Miao. "May I take a look at the black soup spoon in your hand?"
Oh no, what if Han Dahai and the others discover that this Mystic Spoon is a treasure?
But if they wanted to take it, there was absolutely nothing they could do.
This black sword was just something my father temporarily left here. How could it be lost? How can I explain this to my father Tang Yuan?!
Tang Tiansong immediately became extremely nervous and quietly wiped the sweat from his hands.
"Of course." Miao handed the Mystic Spoon to Han Dahai with a relaxed expression.
The Earth Flood Dragon in the Mystic Spoon can only try its best to conceal its aura; everything else is up to fate...
Han Dahai examined the Mystic Spoon carefully for a few breaths, scanning it twice with his Divine Sense, but found nothing unusual. He then handed the Mystic Spoon to Wei Chen, saying, "This spoon is quite ordinary."
It's neither ordinary nor unusual.
It is considered ordinary because it merely contains a touch of Spiritual Qi.
It is extraordinary because of its material, which is neither gold, silver, iron, nor copper, but a very rare material.
I've tried it too; this spoon is very sturdy and it's difficult to damage it in the slightest.
Wei Chen nodded. "This soup spoon has some Spiritual Qi; the ore used to make it must have come from a place rich in Spiritual Qi."
Looking at it from all angles, it's just an ordinary spoon with a bit of Spiritual Qi about it.
"Could you tell me how you obtained this black soup spoon?" Han Dahai asked calmly.
"Reporting to the Immortal Master, this soup spoon was left at home by my husband, who is a cultivator," Miao replied respectfully.
When facing an absolutely powerful opponent, it's better to tell the truth.
If someone wants to take this Mystic Spoon, there's nothing the family can do to stop them.
"Master, could Mengmeng take a look at this soup spoon too?" Wu Mengmeng held out her hand.
"Just an ordinary soup spoon with a bit of Spiritual Qi about it." Wei Chen handed the Mystic Spoon to Wu Mengmeng.
Wu Mengmeng held the black soup spoon and examined it carefully. Suddenly, Wu Mengmeng's eyes became deep and lively, like a vast starry sky.
The Earth Flood Dragon hidden in the Mystic Spoon was also extremely nervous.
"Call"
Wu Mengmeng seemed a little tired, exhaled a breath of stale air, her eyes returned to normal, and she looked at Wei Chen, "Master, I humbly request that we install a soundproof barrier."
Wu Mengmeng has naturally formed Yin-Yang Eyes, which allow her to see the qi emitted by cultivators, and even the aura of powerful cultivators that ordinary cultivators cannot detect.
Did Wu Mengmeng notice something different about the black soup spoon?
Thinking of this, Han Dahai coughed lightly.
Wei Chen felt a little awkward. "Your Uncle Dahai isn't an outsider, there's no need to be so formal."
"I would be grateful if Uncle Han could speak further, Mengmeng does indeed have some doubts," Wu Mengmeng said, cupping her hands in greeting.
"Oh, you have some doubts? Okay, then let me see if I can give you some pointers." Han Dahai walked over casually.
Wu Changgeng's lips twitched a few times, and he walked a few steps away: Well, I've become an outsider.
Wei Chen had put up a soundproof shield and was listening to what Wu Mengmeng was saying, along with Han Dahai.
Because the soundproof enclosure not only blocks sound but also creates a ghostly image, it's very difficult to see the different expressions of the people inside from the outside.
Wu Mengmeng was seen holding Mystic Spoon and talking non-stop, while Han Dahai and Wei Chen nodded and shook their heads.
In any case, it seems this black soup spoon is a treasure.
But what kind of behavior is it for two powerful cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Realm to be holding the Tang Household's treasure and whispering to their disciple in broad daylight?
Wu Changgeng smiled awkwardly, cupped his hands and said, "Fellow Tiansong, I don't need to say more about the strength and reputation of my Azure Origin Sect."
Since your younger brother, Tang Tianya, is a promising candidate to become a sword immortal, why not let him become a disciple of my Azure Origin Sect?
I, Wu Changgeng, will act as the introducer.
Why don't Tianya become a disciple of my Purple Bamboo Peak, Tianya? My master, Han Dahai, is truly a good teacher."
Tang Xingdou was just an ordinary man, and Tang Tianya's so-called obedience to his father was merely an excuse.
Among the Tang Household brothers, Tang Tiansong is the eldest and has the highest cultivation level, so Tang Tianya must be following his orders.
"Fellow Tiansong, becoming a disciple of my Azure Origin Sect will bring many benefits to both yourself and your Lineage."
"If you have any questions about joining the Azure Origin Sect, feel free to ask me." Seeing that his master was interested in taking on disciples, Wu Changgeng enthusiastically promoted himself.
Tang Tiansong nodded and asked Wu Changgeng about some of his doubts.
After hearing Wu Changgeng's explanation, the three Tang Household brothers all had their own ideas.
Tang Tiansong apologized to Wu Changgeng and also installed a soundproof shield.
"Well, I'm an outsider on both sides now." Wu Changgeng smiled awkwardly and moved a few steps away from the Tang Household.
Inside the Spiritual Qi enclosure, Tang Tiansong asked, "Mother, do you think Tianya should join the Azure Origin Sect?"
Miao frowned. "Your father said long ago that whether you choose the path of cultivation or not, or how you choose to pursue it, is a decision for you siblings to make yourselves."
Although I am just an ordinary person, I have recently read some miscellaneous notes and travelogues about cultivating immortality.
The Azure Origin Sect is one of the top cultivation sects. If Tianya becomes a disciple of the Azure Origin Sect, our Tang Household will certainly receive a lot of protection.
However, everything in this world has its gains and losses. While joining the Azure Origin Sect may bring many benefits, there will likely also be corresponding losses.
Just like ordinary soldiers, they are bound to fight for whomever they receive rations and pay.
As your mother, I have no extravagant desires for you. I only hope that you siblings can live peacefully and happily.
"Tianya, would you like to become a disciple of the Azure Origin Sect?" Tang Tiansong asked.
"Once I become a disciple of the Azure Origin Sect, I can no longer go home at any time. It is common for me to not be able to return to Dangwu Village for several years or even decades."
I don't aspire to be a powerful cultivator, much less a sword immortal.
My father is now forced to live far away from us because he is cultivating immortality; he can no longer return home.
All I want is to live a simple life with my mother and my older siblings.
I...
"My father's letter also described the unseen dangers of cultivation sects. I don't want to become a disciple of the Azure Origin Sect." Tang Tianya pouted...
