Bai Feng knew that lying and making something up wouldn't work. At their level, lying could be easily seen through, and Bai Feng had never considered himself a good liar.
Could he tell the truth and face the consequences? Or lie and hope he believes it, maybe even worsening the situation in that case?
Hao Jindo narrowed his eyes as he looked at Bai Feng, waiting for the response.
Bai Feng decided to come clean, and tell Hao Jindo the truth:
"I'm not from any outer world sect. I have lived and grown on this planet my whole life. When I told you the name of my master, I also said that you wouldn't know her, not because she was so high that you wouldn't have met her, but because she was of such low standing that even if you searched for her, you might not have found her."
Hao Jindo couldn't help but grab Bai Feng by the shoulder, making him tense up, while Shan Shi was ready to attack from the side, creating a pincer move on the go.

Due to some problems IRL, along with a need to rest my mind, I will take a 3 days vacation until the 1st of march. Hope you enjoyed the chapter and will continue reading future chapters :)
Hao Jindo looked to be skeptical of Bai Feng's words, but he also knew that Bai Feng wasn't the type of person to lie directly to his face, the first time they met, Bai Feng didn't tell him the truth, but he didn't lie either, the second time, he had come out clean, and told him everything. Hao Jindo felt that he could somewhat trust what Bai Feng was saying, and considering the rumors about body cultivators, and how the Mother of Heavens seemed to hate them, it wouldn't be strange if Bai Feng was truly cursed. Bai Feng going berserk and not differentiating from friend and foe meant he wouldn't be able to use his cooking skills. Hao Jindo looked at Bai Feng, and then, Hao Jindo caressed his chin for a few seconds as he thought what he should do before his eye lit up and he said: "I can loan you enough resources to get you to the Saint Realm, but after that, you will have to focus and make me at least 300 pills to pay me back, then you will still have
While Jindo was daydreaming about having enough pills for his breakthroughs and the successful future of his cultivation, Bai Feng was doing his best to accumulate Qi from the surroundings into the cauldron to improve his dish's quality to a higher tier.The location was rather macabre, but the surrounding Qi was of an extremely high concentration and quality, so even though Bai Feng didn't like the place, he realized that it was the best one for his concoctions.A little bit of time had passed, and Bai Feng checked the formation of the dish inside the cauldron.He could sense that the dish was forming nicely, and the Qi bursts that were gradually increasing from the cauldron even made Bai Feng take a double-take.It even went so far that Hao Jindo couldn't help but whistle as he said lightly from the opposite room:"That's something very strong you are concocting there my friend. Are you sure you will be able to handle all of it, even with your bo
The cursed beings inside of Bai Feng were slowly being destroyed by the new blood that was starting to course in his veins from the second heart.They were exterminated at an extremely quick speed. The blood was purified so quickly that they didn't even get to touch the perimeters around Bai Feng's brain.His second heart beating started to slow down as the antibodies were doing their work, getting Bai Feng rid of the plague that had bothered him for such a long time.Bai Feng watched everything happening with a critical eye, making sure that none of the cursed beings could escape from the onslaught coming from his second heart.He didn't understand what they were, but he could see that they were small white beings that had runes engraved on them that gave Bai Feng a nauseous feeling.That was the curse they bore, and they grew into Bai Feng's body the moment he had embarked on the path of body cultivation.Bai Feng understood more about the
Bai Feng started by reading the recipes. If he started like that, he would have an easier time identifying the materials that were listed there when he would go through the mountain of resources.The resources were on his left, the scrolls were on his right.He started by picking up the first scroll and going through it very quickly.With his current mental capabilities, only one scan of the scroll was needed to imprint all of the data that printed there into his soul.He already gained the knowledge about the ingredients' peculiarities of the first pill he had read about.And he was able to easily identify them in the pile of materials with the naked eye.Bai Feng moved on to the second scroll, did the same thing, then identified even more materials.At first, he thought that he would have to do the identifying and scroll reading separately, but he could do both at the same time.It was rather easy too.Bai Feng continu
Sally smiled as she saw Bai Feng inviting her, and she skipped over to him and Chen Lingxi.Bai Mu looked down at Sally and acted proud as he sat on his father's shoulders, Sally didn't say anything besides smiling at him as well. She knew how much Bai Mu had missed his father during the time she had interacted with him when Bai Feng was gone.On the surface, he seemed like an intelligent person with a high maturity beyond his age, but at the core, Bai Mu was still 12 years old with the same emotions as a normal child.He only knew when to act upon them.Bai Feng smiled at his son who enjoyed sitting on his shoulders before he scratched his head and asked Chen Lingxi:"Uh.. what do you families usually do when they have fun?"Bai Feng was never a family man, he didn't play any games when he was young with Mu An because they had to alternate taking care of the chicken, and usually, they would rest or eat after that.They didn't have fr
Bai Feng grabbed his son and put him on his back before he flew out of the courtyard while telling Sally:"Keep an eye out for Chen Lingxi and tell her what has happened, Ok Sally?"Sally nodded and watched Bai Feng make his way into the palace before he disappeared from her sight.Bai Mu groaned on Bai Feng's back as Bai Feng made his way towards the underground area.He arrived near the mausoleum quite quickly, and there he saw Hao Jindo, calculating the number of resources he had dropped in the mausoleum. He also seemed rather happy as he most likely picked the 800 pills that Bai Feng had made.Jindo looked at Bai Feng, and his son, and then he raised an eyebrow before asking:"Hmm? What's wrong with your son?"Bai Feng spoke quickly:"I'm not sure, but if you help me with this problem, I will make you more pills!"Jindo smiled immediately the moment he heard the word pills, and he approached Bai Feng before he put hi
Bai Feng looked at his son, awaiting his awakening. That's when Hao Jindo started to say:"You have quite an interesting son, Bai Feng. The fact that he can cultivate on the bone altar even with his half-veins shows that his enlightenment might even rival mine's!"Bai Feng's eyes widened at these words. His son's enlightenment was at the same level as a Half-God?He was rather mature for his age, but having such a high level of enlightenment was something that he couldn't believe easily.His gaze turned from his son to Hao Jindo as he asked:"Are you sure that's right? Also, what's up with this place? Why is it full of decay? And that bone altar is made from human bones?"Jindo looked at the bone altar and smiled as he responded:"This place was created by me to improve the cultivation base of my juniors. Unfortunately, none of them were able to withstand the decay that ate at their sanity and body. They just collapsed and died, creat
Bai Mu couldn't help but take a step backward as the wound on his shoulder gushed with more blood.He had thought that the man might be faking his situation. However, he had miscalculated where the ambush would come from.It was a situation that made Bai Mu quite embarrassed since his father and master were watching him.It was especially embarrassing since both of them had quite high hopes for him.However, the wound on his shoulder didn't bother Bai Mu much. But that didn't deter the attacker at all. The tall, skinny, and frail man couldn't help but lick his lips as he looked at the blood dripping from Bai Mu's new injury, and he couldn't help but say:"I like fresh meat like you."Bai Mu didn't get intimidated by the comment as he thought about the best plan to finish the fight.He understood that the person in front of him was somewhat weak, and he relied on tricks and intimidation to win his fights in the arena.That meant
