Hidden Moth-Chapter 534 - 304: Forbidden to Abuse Power and Frame the Innocent

On this particular workday, He Kao found his gaze drifting away from the computer screen. He was pondering a question: Who would be the next to come looking for him?

After thinking for a long time, he figured that the only person he was truly close with was still Wu Yanjun. Surely Xiaowu wouldn’t call right away?

But even after he clocked out and went home, there was no sign of Wu Yanjun. He Kao laughed to himself. Not having mastered the Lingxi Skill, why was he daydreaming that he could foresee things? Did he actually think he possessed prophetic abilities?

Yet, just as the corners of his mouth began to curl, the smile vanished from his face. A car was driving into Pugang Town and from a distance, He Kao noticed it was driven by Wu Yanjun.

Xiaowu didn’t call him; he came straight over, having rushed all the way from Taigu City. As He Kao opened the main gate and waited in the courtyard, Xiaowu jumped out of the car and greeted him with a hug.

"Why are you here?"

"It’s been a while; I missed you!"

"Save that talk for coaxing your junior sister, don’t use it on me."

"There’s something, let’s talk inside."

As expected, Xiaowu came to discuss the matter concerning the Pure Yang Pill. Related news had spread earlier that afternoon, prompting someone to reach out to Xiaowu’s martial uncle, Ye Hui, hoping Ye Hui could pass a message to He Kao...

He Kao’s rescue of Wu Yanjun in Maoluo Country was not known to outsiders, but many were aware of his strong mentor-student relationship with Ye Hui.

However, Ye Hui directly refused and his response was quite interesting: "If I could get the Pure Yang Pill, I’d want it for myself, why would I help you get it?"

Then Ye Hui sent his martial nephew, Xiaowu, on a journey to Qi Yuan to meet He directly and discuss face-to-face.

Xiaowu hadn’t even had time for dinner, so He Kao made him a late-night snack, and they talked while eating.

Xiaowu: "Before I left, I asked my martial uncle, if he could get the Pure Yang Pill, what would he offer? Without hesitation, he said he’d be willing to give you Chuanyue Manor!"

Though exaggerated, it wasn’t without reason. The Pure Yang Pill is priceless to those truly in need, and there’s no place to purchase it no matter how much you spend.

Even if Ye Hui gave away Chuanyue Manor, he could still live on, but improving cultivation aptitude is an elusive great opportunity.

Xiaowu continued, seemingly lost in his own thoughts: "Actually, my martial uncle was just giving an example. He wanted me to remind you that there are many other ways to make money and you absolutely must not misjudge the value and sell the Pure Yang Pill."

He Kao was a bit stunned: "Your martial uncle wants to remind me not to sell it?"

Xiaowu lifted his head: "What else?"

He Kao: "The people who came to me today all talked about wanting to take the pill together with me."

Xiaowu shook his head: "That’s just today; there are many others who haven’t come yet.

Take my martial uncle, for example. He couldn’t take it with you, could you carry him, or would he carry you? Who among you has Tier Five Cultivation?

The vast majority of sorcerers are like my martial uncle.

If someone buys the Pure Yang Pill from you, they’ll find another Tier Five Cultivator to take it with. It’s a desirable opportunity many would be willing to have, and they could use the opportunity to set conditions and profit!

The people who approached my martial uncle never mentioned taking it with you; they simply wanted to purchase the elixir in your hands. My martial uncle certainly understood their intentions, so he specifically sent me to remind you not to agree.

You can find a proficient adept to take the pill with, but you must not sell it.

Your mentor might not say anything right now and is just waiting to see what you do. If you really plan to sell the Pure Yang Pill, your mentor will definitely be disappointed, thinking you lack a resolute heart."

Although He Kao had no such intention, he felt Ye Hui’s words made sense. Laughing, he quickly said, "I’ve already agreed with someone on taking the pill together, so there’s no need for anyone else to come find me.

Still, please thank your martial uncle for me, and thank you too...for coming all this way so late; these three bottles of elixirs are a token of appreciation!"

With that, He Kao turned to head upstairs and retrieved three bottles of elixirs. Xiaowu opened one out of curiosity, exclaiming, "Just sensing it clears the mind, what kind of spiritual elixir is this?"

He Kao: "This is called a Jade Pill. It’s for your martial uncle, yourself, and your junior sister, one bottle each, similar in effect to a Peiyuan Pill."

The so-called Jade Pill was a unique spirit pill He Kao crafted using Jade Phoenix Tree Seeds. Only after pocketing the elixirs did Xiaowu speak: "How can I accept this graciously?"

He Kao: "No need to hesitate. I want to ask for your help with something."

Xiaowu said boldly: "Whatever you need, just say the word!"

He Kao: "The plan for using the Pure Yang Pill has been arranged by an elder from the Ancestral Hall. Please ask your martial uncle to help spread the word."

The next morning, while at his workplace, He Kao suddenly received a divine thought from Mei Guyu: "On behalf of the Ancestral Hall, I formally notify you to go to the Ancestral Hall in Phoenix Tail Town to receive one Pure Yang Pill and one Peony, the timing is up to you."

A few seconds later, Mei Guyu sent another divine thought: "The previous was a formal notification from the Ancestral Hall."

The contents of a divine thought could be both varied and nuanced; just those two simple sentences were conveyed twice, making the intention clear.

Previously, he had only heard rumors, but this was an official notification. Since He Kao’s name was submitted by Elder Mei, the process required Elder Mei to notify him.

As for what He Kao should do after receiving the notice, Mei Guyu had already told him privately the night before last, and then Lin Qingshuang summoned him late at night with specific instructions.
