I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?

63  Chapter 63 Take All of Them With You_1

In Yunshan County, Meng Chong fully committed himself to cultivation, while Shi'er seized the opportunity to serve as a domestic helper, doing chores like cooking, mopping and cleaning the houses daily.

Li Xuan also devoted himself to the great undertaking of Martial Arts.

He was preparing martial skills and Cultivation Techniques for Meng Chong, pondering how to perfect the physical martial arts system.

Meanwhile, in Donghe County, the craze for seeking masters had emerged. A group of usually domineering scoundrels, leading their guards and servants, rigorously searched through the vast mountains. Their quest was to find a master and study true Martial Arts.

The strength of Xu Yan spurred their envy.

Before, they had often mocked Xu Yan behind his back, laughing at his lack of intelligence. But in the end, the real fool ended up being themselves?

It was unacceptable!

They too wanted to become strong martial artists!

Thus, the searching for masters craze swept across Donghe County. Even isolated mountains and wilderness, which people rarely visited, were frequently occupied by those seeking masters.

"Young Master Wang, what a coincidence, have you found a master yet?"

"And you, Young Master Tian?"

"Nothing yet, I've traversed several mountains, even encountering a wild beast, but still no signs of a master."

"Same here!"

"Sigh, do you know where that fellow Xu Yan found his master? Could it not be in the mountains, but instead in the city?"

"How could it be in the city? All masters must live in seclusion in the mountains. If it were in the city, wouldn't everyone know?"contemporary romance

"No time for chat, I need to check the mountain ahead...wait, you've already been there?"

In the wilderness, searching groups met and shared their experiences.

At the same time, they also expressed their envy and jealousy towards Xu Yan!

As for Xu Yan, who had shattered the world view of the people of Donghe County and the courtiers of Qi Country, he was currently in the royal treasury of the palace.

"Such wonderful items! Truly worthy of a royal treasury!"

Xu Yan looked at the items in the treasury and couldn't help but exclaim.

Golds and silvers were no longer the main contents of the treasury.

Rare gems, Luminous Pearls, nine-leafed elixirs, thousand-year-old mountain ginseng, and many more high-value items filled the treasury, their quantity simply astonishing.

"Young Master Xu, just name the treasures you desire, and this old servant will have them packed for you," said the chief eunuch, wearing a flattering smile.

As Xu Yan circled the treasury, he suddenly found a sword and a knife housed within it.

Weapons that were collected in the royal treasury were naturally not ordinary. His interest piqued, Xu Yan walked over and picked up the treasured sword from its stand.

The chief eunuch stood by respectfully, smiling flatteringly throughout, although some confusion flickered in his eyes. He couldn't recall when these two weapons had been added to the collection.

As Xu Yan drew the sword from its sheath, he instantly felt a surge of fierce energy emerge. The cold gleam of the sword was chilling on his face.

The chief eunuch couldn't help but step back, a look of surprise on his face. When had such a sword been added to the treasury? This sword was clearly not commonplace.

Xu Yan looked at the sword in his hand with surprise and joy; this sword was extraordinary.

It didn't seem to be a common steel sword. The vital energy in his palm felt like it was flowing into the sword.

Simultaneously, a faint humming sound ensued as the sword's radiance intensified upon the infusion of his vital energy.

A treasure sword!

Xu Yan sheathed the sword again but didn't put it back. Instead, he hung it around his waist. He decided to keep this sword.

His gaze then fell on the knife.

As he picked it up, he was momentarily stunned.

What a heavy knife!

Even the most skilled martial artist in the world would have trouble handling this knife, unless they had unusual strength.

Unsheathing the knife!

It was as impressive as the sword.

The blade was thick and heavy, with a blood-red pattern coursing through the middle. The blade was as cold as ice, exuding a sharp feeling at first glance.

"What a knife!"

Xu Yan was admiring in his heart.

Although he didn't like this heavy knife, since it was a precious knife, how could he not take it with him?

So he held the knife in his hand.

"Young Master Xu, if you have set your heart on something else, this humble servant will have it packed and sent to your estate," said the officer in charge of the eunuchs, hurrying forward with a sycophantic smile.

"I will take another look!"

Xu Yan continued to wander around in the Treasury.

The royal treasury was full of a variety of collections, jade, sculpture, calligraphy, and many others, all works of famous craftsmen, or fine pieces passed down through several generations.

"These calligraphies and such are of no use to me, besides, I don't like them, so, no need!"

Xu Yan had glanced at the collection in the calligraphy section, shook his head, and prepared to leave.

"Wait, I might not be interested, but perhaps my master is."

Xu Yan suddenly thought of his master, who was a renowned hermit, who often appreciated insights in calligraphy to nurture his morale - a typical preference of hermits.

Perhaps his master might like them?

"Of course, I'll also take these jade carvings, luminous pearls... as well as the precious medicines."

He turned another round inside the treasury inevitably excluding certain objects that didn't offer much use and were only regarded as adornments, but held no considerable value.

"I've made my selections."

Xu Yan said to the head eunuch.

"Young Master Xu, as per your order, this humble servant will have them packed up immediately!"

The Head Eunuch exhaled, a fawning grin spread across his face.

"This, uh... these stones are of no use, all they have are aesthetic appearances, I don't want them!"

Xu Yan gestured towards those superficially attractive but practically useless stones, keeping them out of his selection.

"Pack up everything else and take it with me!"

"Yes, Mr. Xu… Ah?"

The smile on the Head Eunuch's face froze.

Take everything with him?

Weren't they supposed to choose only a handful?

Those rocks were objects of adoration to the former Emperor, hence were deposited in the Treasury.

They were the only non-valued objects in the entire Treasury.

If they were to exclude those, would all other possessions be carried away?

The Head Eunuch was left dumbfounded and cautiously replied, "Young Master Xu, there are many valuables in this Treasury, an accumulation of royalties over many years, if we were to pack and carry them all..."

Xu Yan looked at the Head Eunuch curiously, and said, "Didn't Emperor Qi say that whatever I fancy, I can take? Now that I have taken a liking for everything, am I not allowed to take them?"

"No, it's not that..."

The Head Eunuch's face was sweating profusely, he had never experienced such a thing!

While he offered to take whatever he liked, he certainly did not mean him to empty the entire place!

Seeing the Head Eunuch's hesitation, Xu Yan frowned, saying, "What, is Emperor Qi playing a fast one on me? He promised that whatever I liked, I could take, but when I do pick something, he wouldn't let me take it?"

"What does he take me, Xu Yan, for?"

"I had assumed that Emperor Qi was a reasonable man, but it turns out he goes back on his word in front of me, Xu Yan"

As Xu Yan raged, he seemed ready to confront Emperor Qi.

The Head Eunuch was so frightened that he almost wet himself, and hurriedly explained: "Young Master Xu, Young Master Xu, you have misunderstood, I was just meaning to say that there are too many things in here to pack, it would take too much time, and I fear it would delay your precious time…"

In a panic, he changed his explanation, if this matter actually reached Emperor Qi, and he ended up with a beating, that would surely mean his life.

Furthermore, the resulting death would be brutal!

They were merely treasures, and he presumed, once the Emperor got to know, he would grant permission.

"That's no problem. Have someone pack everything and I can wait for as long as it takes."

Xu Yan said, his anger finally subsiding.

"Yes, yes, I'll have people come and pack them up!"

As the Head Eunuch ordered his men to load up all the items from the treasury, he simultaneously sent someone to report to Emperor Qi.
