Chapter 488: Chapter 488 – Commotion

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Of course, such an impulse would not hurt Wei Xiao Bei in any way. That was why he saw no need to activate [Indomitable Spirit].

Of course, it was a good thing that he was in the forest right now. He would have embarrassed himself if he was walking down the streets.

After all, Wei Xiao Bei’s little fellow had always been of a pretty decent size. Though it didn’t quite grow thicker or longer as he became more powerful, the result of it turning hard.....was it poking a hole right through his tough jeans!

Well, it was to be expected. Wei Xiao Bei’s skin was extremely hard now. Even bullets would be deflected by his skin, let alone swords and knives.

When his thing went hard, it was probably tougher and harder than steel!

Wei Xiao Bei didn’t want to pay too much attention to his crotch, so he quickly placed the pedestal back into his storage bracelet.

If there was one problematic thing about the Pedestal of the Fountain of Youth, it would be that it could not produce any Spring Water while it was in the storage bracelet. Wei Xiao Bei had discovered this with the fragments. Not a single drop of Lesser Spring Water of Youth had been produced even after an entire month in the bracelet.

Wei Xiao Bei estimated that this was probably due to the extremely slow flow of time inside the isolated space of the storage bracelet.

As such, if he were to place the Pedestal in the storage bracelet, it would experience the same thing as the fragments did.

Thus, Xiao Bei was practically negating his profit by placing the treasure in his storage bracelet.

The best solution was to build his farm first and place the pedestal in there. He could wait a hundred days, then use the pedestal’s [Unending Spring] effect to cultivate the plants and animals he needed.

At the thought of that, Xiao Bei had no choice but to set aside his plans to deal with Bi Fang’s heart blood and the Skeleton Bird’s Soul Pearl. He circled out of the forest and went to collect his car from the parking lot.

However, he saw a checkpoint along the road before he even got close to the parking lot.

Members of the CNG were standing on both sides of the checkpoint, weapons in hand.

The full name of the CNG was the Chinese National Guard, an important military force in China. They had many responsibilities and were split into many divisions including Internal Guard, Border Guard, Fire Rescue, Gold, Utility, Forest Guard, Transport and Security.

The officers stationed at the checkpoint were Internal Guards, responsible for sudden events that happened locally and would cooperate with the local police force to capture criminals.

“Greetings!”

A car that exited the parking lot was stopped at the checkpoint. An officer stepped forward, saluted and started questioning the driver.

Of course, it wasn’t just cars from Feng Tou Mountain that were being stopped. Even pedestrians and cars coming from Cui Hu were being stopped.

That said, the people coming from Cui Hu were only being prevented from going into the mountain. Those who were coming out of the mountain would be dragged aside for careful questioning.

Wei Xiao Bei saw that the drivers that were brought aside for questioning took a long time before they were allowed to leave.

Wei Xiao Bei knew that the merging of the Pedestal of the Fountain of Youth would have created a commotion, but he never expected that even the National Guard would be alerted.

One could only imagine how large of an effect the green light had throughout the country.

At the thought of that, Wei Xiao Bei decided not to collect his car. Instead, he turned and started returning to Cui Hu City along the paddy fields.

However, he quickly discovered that militia, police and National Guard officers were stationed over many of the fields. They guarded the rivers and the roads at key locations, forming a perimeter around Feng Tou Mountain.

It must have been the abrupt nature of the incident. Otherwise, Wei Xiao Bei was certain that this perimeter would be ten times more dense and compressed than it currently was.

Either way, he had probably opened up a large hole in the hornet’s nest. Many people won’t be sleeping tonight.

It wasn’t hard for Wei Xiao Bei to escape a perimeter like this and return to Cui Hu City with his powers.

When he returned to the dojo, he heard everyone discuss the incident fervently amongst themselves.

Andre and Huang Kun were the most passionate about it amongst them all.

“That was such a bright light! I’m sure that it must be some treasure from the Dust World that fell into our world! Let’s go take a look!”

Huang Kun was so excited that his face was almost shimmering with light. He was trying his best to encourage everyone to go treasure-hunting with him.

“It might not necessarily be a treasure. It could be a monster that let out that light.”

Andre was even more excited than Huang Kun, but his greater age made him more mature and so he provided a more neutral suggestion.

Zhao Guang might be somewhat interested, but he wasn’t all that invested after all.

Zhu Xin Yi, on the other hand, couldn’t be bothered at all. She was watching over the gangsters-turned youngsters as they practiced their punching by the side.

The gangsters were completely distracted. It wasn’t exactly their fault. No one would be able to calm down after witnessing such a miraculous thing happen.

They straightened their ears and tried to listen for more interesting content in Huang Kun and Andre’s conversation.

Zhu Xin Yi did not hold back at the sight of this. She flicked her wrist and hit them with the whips, making the gangsters immediately snap back to their training.

Wei Xiao Bei couldn’t help but be entertained to see this. He never thought that Xin Yi had a bit of a dominating temperament to her.

“Cough, cough. What are the two of you thinking about? Be careful you don’t get eaten by some weird monster!”

Wei Xiao Bei shut the doors, coughed lightly and started scolding the two of them.

“Ah, master’s back!”

All of them immediately rushed forward. Even Xin Yi ran to Wei Xiao Bei’s side and threw the whip onto a wooden stake on the ground.

“Master, do you know what happened?”

Huang Kun’s reaction wasn’t slow at all. He managed to guess that the strange incident had something to do with Wei Xiao Bei after he scolded them.

Of course, he didn’t get it quite right. The green light had indeed come from a treasure, but that treasure already had an owner and that owner was his master!

“Stop chattering! Go do what you’re supposed to do! Speaking of which, where’s Zhou Xing Yuan?”

Wei Xiao Bei finally remembered the poor Zhou Xing Yuan and asked about him.

“Brother Zhou got tired while waiting for master, so he went to the guest room to sleep.”

Zhu Xin Yi answered her master’s question. After all, she was the one that arranged for Zhou Xing Yuan to rest in the guest room. It was only right for her to report to her master now.

“I see. Follow me.”

Wei Xiao Bei looked around and decided not to speak to his disciples here. The gangsters were still here after all. Though they already knew many things, such as Huang Kun possessing supernatural powers, Zhu Xin Yi being a summoner, Zhao Guang being an expert martial artist and the foreigner being an incredibly strong person, they had no idea of the more obscure things. Wei Xiao Bei had no intention of letting them know yet.

He could only let them in on some things after he had completely confirmed their personalities and trustworthiness.

“You lot keep practicing! I will check the results of your training in a bit!”

Everyone responded to Wei Xiao Bei’s orders and followed him to the indoor practice ground. Xin Yi did not forget her responsibility either. She turned and left a few reminders with the gangsters before leaving with the rest of the group.

Once everyone was in the practice ground, Wei Xiao Bei gave them a summary of what had happened.

Everyone here had trained in the Dust World. They knew how to keep secrets to themselves. At the same time, they were happy for Wei Xiao Bei. After all, a treasure like this could not be so easily found.

Wei Xiao Bei then took out a dozen ceramic bottles and gave three to each of them: “There are fifty milliliters of Lesser Spring Water in each of these bottles. I have already concealed them with some Chinese herbs. Use it for yourself, but remember not to leak it to the outside world! ”

Wei Xiao Bei had already prepared these bottles to allow for consuming the Lesser Spring Water of Youth in the real world while avoiding people from noticing its wondrous effects.

After all, there was no guarantee that they wouldn’t run into danger in the real world as well.

Since Wei Xiao Bei had the complete Pedestal that could produce Spring Water of Youth, the Lesser Spring Water of Youth he had taken from the Dust World was not as important. Giving away 600 milliliters of the 4216 milliliters he had was no big problem.

After all, this thing only had a minimal effect on Wei Xiao Bei. He only drank it when he was severely injured to quicken his recovery and regain combat power.

The effects of increasing lifespan and a bit of Vitality and Charm no longer worked on Wei Xiao Bei.

Wei Xiao Bei estimated that his current lifespan was probably over a thousand years now.

Moreover, he still had plenty of the Excellent World Tree Sap. That would be more than enough for his purposes.

In truth, Wei Xiao Bei was rarely ever so wounded that he needed the Lesser Spring Water to heal himself.

Given that to be the case, he was more than happy to give away his treasures to his friends and disciples.

It might not be very useful to him, but there was no doubt that it was like miracle medicine to Xin Yi and Huang Kun.

Moreover, Xin Yi and Huang Kun were both his disciples. Andre was also willing to lower himself and begged Wei Xiao Bei to accept him as a disciple and teach him martial arts.

In all honesty, Wei Xiao Bei didn’t look too favorably upon Andre’s talent for the martial arts. Instead, he was interested in his son and daughter.

However, his son and daughter had only just started learning Chinese. Some of the special terms they used in Chinese martial arts couldn’t be properly explained in Danish. Moreover, Norwegian and Danish had some differences. It made it even more difficult for Wei Xiao Bei to teach them martial arts.

Thus, Wei Xiao Bei could only have Xin Yi teach the two children some fundamental techniques. The more advanced knowledge would have to come later.

Fortunately, these two children were not too old so Wei Xiao Bei believed they could adopt a Chinese mentality to learning martial arts.

Meanwhile, he accepted Andre as a disciple in name only. He couldn’t possibly teach him the more advanced martial arts. Andre was simply too old and it was too difficult to correct his mentality. He would not be able to learn the techniques even if Wei Xiao Bei tried to teach him.

Moreover, Andre didn’t even know the different categories of Chinese kungfu. What were inner martial arts? He had absolutely no idea. Rather, he became extremely obsessed with the more superficial external martial arts.

Thus, Wei Xiao Bei decided to just have him strengthen himself and then teach him the external arts of Bajiquan.

It was undeniable that Caucasians were more talented at these external arts. Andre had worked out the basics in just a few days.

Wei Xiao Bei couldn’t help but see him in a new light.

That said, Andre could only train himself in this aspect of Chinese martial arts. In some sense, it did fit his identity as an Einherjar.
