The Rise of the Fallen Prodigy

Chapter 3: The mysterious old man in ancient jade



Liam Smith was in the middle of an exclamation when a voice suddenly said, "What's the matter, little man, you can't hold on so fast?" There was a hint of derision in his voice.

'Who? Liam Smith got up and looked around, but didn't see anyone around.

Could it be that you're hearing voices? Liam Smith thinks, shaking his head.

But as soon as I finished thinking about it, the voice sounded again: "Hey, how come the little guy doesn't even believe his own ears?"

This time Liam Smith heard someone actually speaking, and the voice should be an older person, otherwise there would be no vicissitudes in the words.

"Where are you? Come out quickly." Liam Smith's face was tense and he kept glancing around, but he couldn't see anyone.

You're not gonna see a ghost, are you? Liam Smith's mind suddenly came up with such an idea, it is said that in this stone house has died several Smith family servants, is it possible that they have become evil ghosts back?

The more Liam Smith thought about it, the more he thought about it, the pores all over his body were opening wide and a little cold sweat was already leaking from his forehead.

"The old husband is on you." The voice sounded out of thin air again, with a hint of playfulness in the words.

Liam Smith heard the other side in their own body, scared hurriedly in their own body to check half a sound, after no abnormal, this just a little calm down, courage to say: "Who are you, why pretend to be a ghost, have the ability to speak."

The voice grinned and said, "Since you let the old man out, then the old man has to come out, but don't be scared."

With those words, Liam Smith felt a jolt in his chest, and then saw the piece of jade hanging from his chest break free of the red thread holding it and float in front of him.

Then a flash of streamer light, a mock nothingness of the figure actually floated out of the ancient jade, the wind will be long, long until a normal person's height before stopping.

Liam Smith is going to look really good, this is an old man, I think he's the one who just spoke.

"Are you a man or a ghost?" Liam Smith asked cautiously.

Liam Smith This ancient jade is the only relic left by his parents, and he has worn it since childhood, never knowing that this ancient jade is strange. Even more did not think that he was hanging in the chest of the ancient jade actually hidden such a supernatural ghost of the old man.

The old man did not answer Liam Smith's words, but stared at Liam Smith with a little praise, his hands fell behind him, quite a fairy bone momentum, and said: "The little guy is brave, I thought you would be scared away when you see the old husband."

"Well, I'm not afraid of you." Liam Smith has a hard scalp.

Originally Liam Smith's first thought was to run, but then he thought that the other party had unknowingly followed him for more than ten years, if you want to harm yourself already started, don't wait until now. So a nervous heart also calmed down a little.

"If you're not afraid, the little fellow has some courage."

"What are you, and how did you get into my jade?"

"I'm not a thing." As soon as the old man opened his mouth, he realized that he had said something wrong. He quickly coughed dry to hide the embarrassment on his face and said, "To be precise, I'm just a Remnant Soul."

"Remnant Soul? Liam Smith mumbled a little puzzlement.

The old man seemed to recall some sad events, his face sometimes showed a hint of murder, sometimes showed a hint of helplessness, but he did not want to say more to Liam Smith, just a light sentence: "To put it simply, your old husband's body has been destroyed, and now the Remnant Soul is the remnant soul that you escaped from after a near death experience, and has stayed in this ancient jade, I don't know how many years, and finally fell in this Silvermoon Valley, before your parents bought it for you."

"Oh," he said. Liam Smith sort of got it.

The old man did not pay too much attention to Liam Smith, but continued: "But what I did not expect is that your Soul Power is very strong, budo talent is also beyond my expectations, if it was not for your sacrifice over the years, I am afraid I would not wake up so soon."

"Offering?" Liam Smith seemed to think of something, his face cold, said: "So I haven't been able to break out of the innate Realm Level nine for five years is your fault?"

The old man's face became a little abnormal, but he still forced a smile and said, "The little guy is very smart."

The answer is self-evident.

"I'm smart, mom." Liam Smith's anger, which had been building up for five years, found its boiling point when he snatched the ancient jade and hurled it at a stone wall.

The old man seems to have thought of Liam Smith's move, and at the moment of Liam Smith's action, his entire body shrank and disappeared directly into the ancient jade.

As soon as Gu Yu shot, Liam Smith regretted it and rushed to catch it, but it was always a step too slow, Gu Yu hit the stone wall, and the rebound force was just enough to bounce it into the ancient well in the courtyard.

A crisp sound into the water, the ancient jade is just a ripple in the well then slowly sinking down.

Liam Smith suddenly regretted his impulse and shouted at the wellhead, "Hey, are you there?"

After several successive sounds, there was only the echo of himself in the well, and the old man seemed to disappear completely with the ancient jade.

Just as Liam Smith was thinking about whether to go down the well himself, he saw the ancient well with a bright flow, the piece of ancient jade unexpectedly slowly floating up from the bottom of the well, and the figure of the old man also appeared again.

Gu Yufu stopped at the mouth of the well so that the old man and Liam Smith could see each other face to face.

The old man did not seem angry, but smiled faintly and said, "Why did the little one get so angry?"

"You don't think I should lose my temper?" Liam Smith is still fuming.

"My old husband has come to rescue you."

"Help me?" Liam Smith sneered: "If you didn't make me, how did I end up here?"

The old man waved his hand, showing a meaningful expression, and said: "The little guy old husband, this can be for your good."

"For my own good, that is unusual." Liam Smith sneers.

"Think, little fellow, if it were not for the old husband, how could you see the true faces of those brothers and sisters in your family?"

According to the old man, Liam Smith thinks so too.

But Liam Smith still can't forgive the old man for what he did to him, fuming: 'Even if that's the case, you did me a favor by making me feel ridiculed for five years?'

The old man rubbed his hands a little embarrassedly and smiled: "The old husband admitted that I was a little sorry for you, but the old husband showed up today to repay you for your sacrifices over the years."

Liam Smith rolled his eyes and asked, "So if you don't stay in the ancient jade, my refined Spirit of heaven and earth will not disappear?"

The old man didn't understand why Liam Smith was suddenly asking, but he nodded and said, "Now the old man has fully awakened and no longer needs to absorb your refined Spirit."

"Well, then go away."

"You drove the old man away, why?" The old man was a little stunned.

"As long as you leave, then my talent is equal to return, sooner or later I can stand on the top again, why need your help, and who knows if you have any harmful tricks."

The old man knew that Liam Smith was still angry with him, and laughed: "Little guy, why do you use the heart of a villain to measure the stomach of a gentleman?"

Liam Smith did not give in, and his brow pointed out: "As long as you leave, I will be a villain for once."

Seeing Liam Smith's resolute attitude, the old man suddenly showed a strange smile and said sarcastically: "Well, this is what you said to let the old husband go, when the time does not require the old husband to come back ah."

"I beg you to come back, you dream?" Liam Smith is dismissive.

The old man did not worry, smiled mysteriously, did not worry slowly: "Before leaving kindly remind you that your talent is true, but a year later if you do not reach the Refined gas Realm Level seven, you will still be expelled from the Smith family."

According to the rules of the Smith family, any disciple who has not reached the Refined gas Realm Level seven by the age of fifteen will be required to leave the Smith family.

Or to help the Smith family to manage the business, or to go to the Smith family to supervise which mining area. It's almost impossible to come back.

"Wait a minute." Liam Smith is a little worried.

The older man seemed to have known that Liam Smith would make the move, flashing a smirk and pretending to ask: 'What else can I do for you?'

Liam Smith wants to go up there and kick the old man's ass, and he's getting a good deal on it. But now things are stronger than people, and Liam Smith has to hold back his anger and gritted his teeth: "I want you to stay."

"What did you say? I can't hear you very well." The old man deliberately put one side of the ear, that look really underflat.

Liam Smith, who is also not easy to talk to, simply waved his hand and coldly said: "I didn't hear it, as if I didn't say anything."

The old man did not expect Liam Smith so ruthless, thumbs up and praise: "Really have courage, to the old husband's appetite, the old husband decided to stay."

Liam Smith insinuates that the old man is a bit of a prude, but now seeing him willing to help him, his anger is mostly relieved.

Now also without nonsense straight to the topic: "predecessor is there a way I can reach the Refined gas Realm Level seven in a year?"

His predecessor did enjoy hearing Liam Smith call out his predecessor, saying, "The little guy was a predecessor. He promised to help out."

Looking at the old man's confidence, Liam Smith looks unconvinced.

Noticing Liam Smith's somewhat distrustful look, the old man reassures him: "If you do what the old man says, you will reach the Refined gas Realm Level of seven in a year."

"Yes, I do." Liam Smith nodded in agreement, after all, for Liam Smith, regardless of whether the old man said is true or not, but this is his only hope now, now everything can only rely on the old man.

Moreover, a person who has been destroyed and can rely on a Remnant Soul to survive is definitely not a simple character, and this ability is estimated that no one in the entire Sunshine Federation will be, and the old man in front of him is definitely a cow. This is Liam Smith's own theory.

For a person as powerful as the old man, there should be a way to reach the Refined gas Realm Level of seven in a year.

Liam Smith was about to say something more, when the old man suddenly said with a shudder, "Someone's coming." Then he disappeared into the jade, and the jade was also glittering, and returned to Liam Smith's hands, becoming the same as before, as if nothing had happened.

Liam Smith also hurriedly tucked the jade into his arms for fear that it would be discovered.
