Chapter 43 New Function of Pot?
43 New Function of Pot?
Chu Yunli looked Su Xing'er as she soothed her. " But Hao, You really became powerful, hm? Last time I saw you, you were pretty skinny."
' You also changed so much, Sister Yunli." Jia Hao looked at Chu Yunli. " You aren't looking like a girl with deadpan eyes like years ago." He " Ahaha, Is that so?" Chu Yunli grinned. " I guess I had a nice glow up, no?"
" So, Is your dad still the head of the City Police Beaureau?"
" Not really. He got promoted and became the head of the Criminal Investigation Department of Azure Province."
' As expected, it's still the same.'
Jia Hao looked at Chu Yunli with a smile, but his mind was occupied with a lot of thoughts.
Jia Hao remembered her as she was also a pretty popular character of Urban Fantasy.
However, it wasn't because she was a heroine. But she was one of the most venomous villains out there.
' I didn't know Su Xing'er and Chu Yunli were friends? No, The thing is…Chu Yunli shouldn't be this young!'
" Sister Chu, You are about to turn 18 this year, right?" Jia Hao suddenly asked.
" Yeah, My birthday is only two months away." Chu Yunli grinned. " Why? Does Brother Hao wish to give me a gift?"
" Hehe, Who knows? Maybe?" Jia Hao replied with a jest.
' Hmm, As I suspected, this is teenage Chu Yunli, not the adult venomous Chu Yunli. If her eighteenth birthday is only two months away, this means…'
' Hmm, Interesting. Let's see how this play out.'
" So, What are you doing here, Yunli?" Jia Hao asked. " Well, Dad is really busy in his work and the place we are currently living is a bit far from the city. However, one of his friends contacted him and we purchased a small villa. So, we are moving here."
" Hehe, Now we can go out together. I am really happy that you are moving here." Su Xing'er nodded with a smile. " You know, we can go to eat the spicy tofu noodles like good old days."
" Oh god, You are right. I will definitely ask you to go with me to eat spicy noodles."
" Miss! We have arrived." The driver spoke as they stopped before Su Family manor.
" Alright, Xing'er, Don't worry about those bastards." Chu Yunli spoke with puffed cheeks. " I will ask my dad to dig out the answer from them."
" Thanks, Chenchen. Goodbye and have a safe trip." Su Xing'er spoke. " Call me again when you move to Eastern Sea City. I will come to help you settle down here."

" What? What did you say?" Su Lan and Su Yunqi were alarmed when they heard what happened.
" Damn it! Who are those bastards? How dare put hands on you?" Su Lan shouted in an angry voice. " Mom, You need to do something."
" Calm down, Lan'er, Sit down." Su Yunqi took a deep breath a sshe sat on the sofa.
Taking a few deep breaths, Su Yunqi calmed herself. " What happened, happened. We should be glad that Xing'er is safe."
" Also, Thank you, Jia Hao. You really helped Xing'er this time. Come to me, dear."
Jia Hao walked near Su Yunqi as she hugged him tightly, caressing his hair with affection. " Thank you, Hao'er. You are a strong man, Like your father. If your parents were alive, they would be so proud."
" But don't worry, Hao'er." She gently kissed the forehead of Jia Hao. " Even if your mom isn't here…I am here, right? You are like my own son."
" Thanks, Aunt." Jia Hao accepted her hug as he knew her feelings were genuine.
' Mm…Not bad…But I getting so hard right now. Ugh, I need to control it.'
His brows twitched as he kept the smile. After a few seconds, he took a step back and looked at Su Yunqi.
" Su Xing'er's friend, Chu Yunli's dad is the Provincial Chief of Criminal Investigation Department. So, Don't worry."
" However, the thing is, I don't think they will get much information from the kidnappers." Jia Hao looked at them and spoke.
" Aunt Su, I think it's someone who has a grudge against you."
" What? A grudge against me?" Su Yunqi was surprised. " No, It can't be…"
" Why it can't be, Mom?" Su Lan interjected. " Are you forgetting you are a successful businesswoman? There are so many haters of you. So, Why couldn't they plot this kidnapping?"
" This…It might be possible." Su Yunqi sighed. " But how can we pinpoint who is behind this?"
" Don't worry, Aunt." Jia Hao smiled. " The one who plotted this shall soon get caught."
" Anyway, I am damned hungry. Xing'er, you bought the Blueberry Pastries, right? Or you dropped them?"
" Yeah, I am also hungry. Mom, Let's go and have dinner."
" Hehe, Alright, my sweet children." Su Yunqi smiled as she turned around and went to the kitchen.
After having a hearty dinner, everyone retired to their room. Jia Hao sat on his bed cross-legged as he looked at the seed of desire inside his body.
' I have already gained enough amount of Anger, Hate, and Horror emotion. I also gained a bit amount of Love and Desire but I need to balance all emotions and make them reach a second level before I can advance it.'
" What a strange world. It's so easy to farm negative emotions, yet so hard to farm positive ones." Jia Hao muttered with a self-depreciating smile. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Closing his eyes, slowly chanted the buddhist mantra and used his Golden Arhat Vajra Body Art.
' After the fight, I think my control over my body increased by a lot. However, I still struck at the Mercury Marrow stage. I wonder if I can find special medicines here like Yunlan Continent.' Jia Hao thought inwardly.
He can think of a few items which can help him here. However, it would require him to complete a few missions and he is too lazy to do them right now.
'Wait, I bought some things from the Yunlan Continent. I wonder what happened to them?'
Jia Hao suddenly looked into his Pot of Miracles with eager eyes.
He bought a thousand taels of violet gold, a steel sword, and a small figure of a golden lion.
However, when he looked into the pot, he was flabbergasted.
All he saw was a small puddle of liquid gold, small shards of metal, and the golden statue.
[ Violet Gold Essence: Essence refined from a lot of violet gold, It contains a dense amount of Yang and Metal Qi. Using it to refine the body can yield significant results]
[ Broken Shards of Hundred Temper Cold Iron: These sharp fragments were once part of a sword. Although they are broken, the sharpness increased drasically]
[ Statue Golden Snow Lion: An ordinary statue refined with a large amount of violet gold and dipped into a great yang pool for nine days. It carries the aura of evil vanquishing snow lion which also brings forth luck]
" Damn it, What the hell are these?" Jia Hao was speechless as he saw the description of the items.
' It looks like the items brought from the Yunlan Continent got enchanted by the Pot of Miracle is too great for this Urban World of Tianshu Nation. So, they might be destroyed.'
' Or, another theory is…What if the Pot of Miarcle reduced the treasure instead of enchanting them? Like discarding bad parts and only refining their essence?'
