Chapter 227: Pretending To Be Sick?
Jia Hao took a deep breath as he felt the energy coursing through his body. The blessing of heaven and earth in the form of virtue was one of the purest kinds of energy.
Cai Yixue paused as she saw Jia Hao sitting there with closed eyes. She felt a shift in his aura, making his expression stunned and solemn.
' He…He is undergoing enlightenment? How is that possible?'
' Even Innate realm masters couldn't undergo such enlightenment, yet he…'
However, Cai Yixue sat beside Jia Hao, with bated breath. She realized that she must not disturb him, or let anyone disturb him.
Jia Hao's breathing became relaxed as he felt a strange kind of tranquility inside him.
In the vast emptiness, he felt he was swimming in the warm current of the virtuous energy.
He could feel the surrounding energy along with the virtuous energy condensing inside his dantian. His foundation grew more and more solid.
His dantian expanded and his internal became more and more refined. Jia Hao felt he reached the Mid stage of Profound Awakening Realm in terms of strength.
Now, with his complete power of Golden Arhat Vajra Body Art, he can fight against a Half step Innate Realm master.
And if he decided to ambush, his chance of killing one is pretty good.
' I used all my virtuous energy to kill that monster. But in the process, I altered the course of fate, saving the lives of thousands of people.'
' No wonder I received such a vast amount of virtuous energy.'
Suddenly, in the vast emptiness, he felt someone reciting buddhist chapters.
" What's the point of hoarding virtue if it can't come in help of others?"

" And if you help people without any ulterior thought in heart, what's the point of having virtue when you are already benevolent?"
" Virtue stems from heart, so does sin. Only after you empty a vessel, you can accumulate more water."
The voice was ringing bells. However, it felt entirely mild and benevolent, like the teaching of a kind old grandpa.
Suddenly, Jia Hao felt an entirely new chapter of Golden Arhat Vajra Body Arts appearing in his mind.
Perhaps if he had never used all his virtues to defeat the monster, this chapter wouldn't have appeared.
' Damn it, That cunning Khsitigarbh. He actually hid such an important part of technique in this way.'
He felt like it was some sort of test prepared for the monks. If the virtuous monk chose to remain secluded and accumulate virtue bit by bit. He can also complete the entire chapter of Virtuous Pilgrim.
However, he might never understood the essence of the chapter, making him lose quite a lot in the long run.
But Jia Hao passed the test, as he let go of her virtue to help people. So he got enlightened, and an entirely new part of the technique opened for him.
Taking a deep breath, Jia Hao digested the information. He could feel the buddhist energy converging in his dantian.
Suddenly, instead of refining his foundation, the energy condensed into an odd shaped material.
' Eh? Don't tell me I formed a golden core?' Jia Hao raised his brows in amusement.
However, he knew that wasn't the case. He saw his foundation becoming solid and smoother, but the buddhis energy gathering on top of it.
The shape of the thing was rather odd like someone picked a piece of stone slab and chiseled it a few times.
' What's this? Do I need to refine it with buddhist and righteous energy?'
Cross referencing a few times with with the scriptures, Jia Hao understood what it was.
' It's the unrefined inner treasure that appeared from the overflowing amount of virtuous energy and buddhist energy.'
' With my own understanding, I can refine into a true treasure, which can easily help me during my fight or cultivation.'
' However, Refining it is a rather tedious task. It would be a long way till I refine it into a treasure.'
Exhaling a deep breath, he adjusted his body. As he opened his eyes, he saw Cai Yixue staring at him.
" Am I looking that handsome?" Jia Hao smirked. " How about looking at me even closer?"
" Ah! You…You have finished your meditation." Cai Yixue became flustered when she heard Jia Hao's words.
" Hehe, I am sorry for keeping you waiting, Wife." Jia Hao slowly got up, feeling his body was rejuvenated.
" Don't worry, I am perfectly fine." Jia Hao smiled at concerned Cai Yixue.
" Shall we go and check on Father in law?"
" This…Alright."
As they stepped out, Jia Hao could see the entire Cai Family manor was in chaos. The servants were running here and there as they tried to help everyone.
Quite a lot of people were injured and all of them required help. Even Minmin was going in and out as she gathered ingredients and ordered other servants as well.
As they entered the courtyard of the Cai Family, Jia Hao saw Li Rou standing outside, consulting with Pharmacist Mo.
" Young Lord, You are here."
" Hao'er, Yixue?"
Li Rou's expression changed when she saw Jia Hao outside. " You shouldn't be wandering outside, Hao'er. You are also injured."
" I am fine, Mother in law." Jia Hao laughed. " Yixue took care of me real well. That's why I recovered so fast."
Cai Yixue blushed a bit as she pinched out Jia Hao's waist, making him yelp.
" Ouch! Ouch! Wife, What are you doing?"
Li Rou sighed in relief when she saw Jia Hao and Cai Yixue. " That's good for you."
" Young Lord's body is really amazing. He had quite a lot of wounds on your body. Not to mention a deep wound on your back." Pharmacist Mo replied. " But I guess most of them were shallow wounds."
" What about Father in Law?" Jia Hao asked hurriedly. " Is he alright?"
" He is alright. You can go and meet him. Just don't agitate him much." Pharmacist Mo nodded and opened the door for him.
" Who…Who is it? Hao'er?"
Jia Hao and Cai Yixue walked in as they saw Cai Yunhai lying on the bed. His body was alright, other than a few bandaged wounds.
" Father in Law, are you alright?"
" Haha, Cheeky brat." Cai Yunhai laughed loudly. " What could happen to me? I am the mighty general Cai Yunhai after all."
" Hmm, You do look very healthy, Father in law." Jia Hao looked at him with Sage's Divine Eyes and nodded. " Then, What is it? Why are you faking wounds?"
" Fa-Faking? Who said I am faking it? Cough, cough! I am so…Cogh! Injured…"
Cai Yixue became a bit suspicious when she noticed a subtle change in Cai Yunhai's expression.
She did hear that her father was injured and didn't wish to see anyone. But, even then, she felt strange as Cai Yunhai didn't look much injured.
" Father, Is he telling the truth?"
" Ahh! Yixue, How could you doubt on your father?" Cai Yunhai showed a painful expression as he sighed.
" It's true, eh? Daughters become their husband's wives after marriage, abandoning their fathers."
" Tsk tsk, Let me guess, Father in law." Jia Hao gave a coy smile. " I guess someone didn't want to act as Magistrate for a few days?"
" Hmph, Brat! How could you say that?" Cai Yunhai's expression faltered as he glared at Jia Hao.
