“Treasure?”

Yun Yang’s gaze turned dangerous immediately.

“I beg your pardon?”

“Bro… Brother… I’ll speak - I’ll speak…”

The fatty felt dead inside.

“It’s like this… I was out and somehow, was identified that I had an Effervescent Rimed Orchid in my possession… Since then, I have been hounded by that shameless bunch, so I ran and ran. It’s absurd, absolute injustice…”

He looked up at Yun Yang with tears hanging on his face.

“I really thought that you were one of those scoundrels earlier… I didn’t ambush you on purpose. You must believe me.”

Yun Yang made no response to the clarification and asked slowly, “The Effervescent Rimed Orchid? Where is it? Show it to me to prove that you’re not lying, then I’ll decide if I want to believe you.”

“Brother, you must believe me. Absolutely. I’ve asked someone to send that Rimed Orchid home,” the fatty blinked and answered softly.

“Sent it home?”

“Yes - yes, yes, I’ve sent it back!”

The fatty nodded like a chicken pecking at grains of rice.

Yun Yang hummed and replied, “So if I found another Rimed Orchid, that’s my providence - at least, it’s not yours, right? Since you’ve sent yours back.”

“Huh - this, yes, that is correct. That’s exactly so. It’s only fair and reasonable, logically justified,” the fatty agreed.

Yun Yang smiled and turned away, speaking casually, “Since it has been a misunderstanding, we’ve cleared it all here. Let’s not meet again in the martial world.”

The fatty was stunned for a moment before he picked himself up from the ground as if awakened from a dream and watched Yun Yang’s retreating back. He was still a little dazed. Had he just survived this encounter? He had predicted that the handsome, fair-skinned man would threaten him and it would have been expected if he wrested his clothes away to conduct a search. Yet, how could this fine man be so kind?

Immediately after that, the fatty spotted that Yun Yang was heading towards the rock that had the engraved tortoise. A shock coursed through the fatty; he scurried after him.

“Big - big brother, bro, slow down… Don’t trip yourself…”

As he walked, his hand went into his pants and yanked the musty, drenched underwear off before tossing it away. His pace then switched into a jog. It was worthy to note that the cool breeze that greeted him was rather enjoyable.

When the rotund man caught up to him, Yun Yang was already lifting the rock up. The latter stuck his arm in and right away, he retrieved a box made of white jade. Without any hesitation, Yun Yang opened the box and saw a beautifully bloomed orchid lying quietly inside; its leaves and stem were healthy, its petals were crystalline and glossy, radiantly glowing with exquisite beauty.

As Yun Yang stared at it, the Rimed Orchid seemed to change, as he saw a momentous picturesque scenery, followed by rich lush trees before a looming waterfall and a river that flowed between majestic mountains, as well as a starry night sky with a full moon greeted his sight…

It was only a small orchid, but it possessed an ever-changing hue and tone. It was incredibly magical.

“I didn’t expect the Effervescent Rimed Orchid to be produced in such large quantities here. It’s so rare. You’ve just sent one home, but there’s one more here! I must look around meticulously later and see if I can find more Rimed Orchids…” Yun Yang exclaimed with delight.

The fatty, Qian Duoduo, stared at the Effervescent Rimed Orchids with eyes as round as saucers, the muscles on his face twitching uncontrollably. His gaze then shifted to Yun Yang, saying with a dry chuckle, “This - Big - big - bro’s luck is really good.”

“This flower is so pretty. Can this young brother have a look? I haven’t seen such a pretty and amazing orchid since birth…” He then said in a simpering manner.

Yun Yang shot him a curious glance.

“What are you saying? Didn’t you just send one back? Haven’t seen enough of it yet?”

“Mine… was far lacking compared to this one you’ve got, big brother… Heh heh…” Qian Duoduo was flustered and giggled humorlessly.

Yun Yang studied the Rimed Orchid in his hand and looked thoughtful. He asked slowly, “What’s the use of this Rimed Orchid?”

Qian Duoduo’s eyes brightened as he answered ingratiatingly, “This orchid isn’t terribly useful. It’s just pretty and most probably in demand only because it stays alive longer… The girls love it. I won’t lie to you, the main reason I want this orchid is to court the ladies. It’s especially effective…”

“I see. This amazing orchid actually amounts to such little use… Such a disappointment, I thought I’d gotten some good luck… Let me destroy it then, it’s only trouble keeping it,” Yun Yang said with a sudden realization and was about to crush the flower without any mercy.

Qian Duoduo sprinted over and pulled at Yun Yang’s hand. His face was pale.

“Big bro… Big… Dear brother… It’s such a pretty flower though - can you really bear kill it? Didn’t I say, it’s magical at winning over girls…”

“Winning over girls?” Yun Yang turned his head and smirked.

“Fatty, I don’t care if your real name is Qian Duoduo. Whatever it is, you tell me the truth in every word you spit from this second on. Any false word and I’ll take this flower apart at once before it becomes your turn. Say, is it better if I pick your nerves and skin you first or suck your fats to light the lantern? These two decisions aren’t really mutually exclusive. I can do them both simultaneously. It’s not contradicting…”

“Mother, I understand…” said the fatty while quivering.

“What did you call me?” Yun Yang glared.

“Mother! This useless mouth of mine… Big brother… This is my pet phrase - I can’t help it…”

He slapped himself twice and continued speaking with a long face, “I’ll cry out mother every time I’m nervous - I’ll cry god when I’m surprised… This - this is a damned habit… I’m totally honest…”

Yun Yang did not know whether to laugh or cry at such honesty and sighed softly at the sky, “Your pet phrase is ‘mother’- I would have thought that it’d be ‘heaven has justice’!”

He really did not expect to meet a clown the moment he arrived at the Bound of Universe. If the fatty did fear death, he did not leave despite knowing that Yun Yang could kill him easily but stayed on… He had acting skills as well - he was a total drama king, perhaps a corpulent drama king!

“The Effervescent Rimed Orchid!”

“Yes - yes, the Effervescent Rimed Orchid… It’s a rare, exquisite gem. It can cure chronic diseases and incurable illnesses, bringing life again to those who’re supposed to be dead. However, what’s best about this magical plant is that it can heal the meridians of those whose meridians have been damaged and paralyzed in a short time, recovering their chance at life. This is priceless for a martial practitioner, specifically those whose cultivation base was destroyed and themselves utterly trounced - it’d be a dream. They won’t make a slight frown even if they have to pay a bigger price.”

After understanding that Yun Yang was not one to play around with, the fatty explained it truthfully with a long face, not daring to play the fool any longer.

“Do you have someone handicapped like this at home? Hoping to heal them with this orchid?” Yun Yang questioned unflinchingly.
