Chapter 4908: The Exorcist

"I want to Cultivate! I want to marry Baobao!!"

Xiao Xuan gritted his teeth and climbed upward with all his might.

Finally, after climbing for three days and three nights, Xiao Xuan reached the mountaintop.

Upon reaching the summit, Xiao Xuan collapsed to the ground, panting heavily, with only half his life left.

"You… did very well." Ye Miaoyin smiled.

"Immortal! Can you take me as your disciple now?!" Xiao Xuan looked at Ye Miaoyin with burning eyes.

Despite being exhausted from three days and three nights of climbing, Xiao Xuan's heart was filled with immense excitement, and his eyes were bright.

"Take you in? It's not impossible… but the path of cultivation is long and arduous. You need to be able to endure loneliness and hardship. Can you do that?" Ye Miaoyin said with a smile.

"Loneliness and hardship? I… I can!" Xiao Xuan nodded heavily.

"Very well, then go and Cultivate." Ye Miaoyin threw a piece of parchment to Xiao Xuan.

On it was the most introductory Mind-Cultivation Technique.

Based on Xiao Xuan's current Aptitude, it would take him three years just to get started…

"This… Good, good, good! Thank you, Immortal!" Xiao Xuan nodded heavily.

"Go. Once you have Cultivated well, come see me again." Ye Miaoyin waved her hand.

The next moment, all the injuries on Xiao Xuan's body were healed.

Xiao Xuan was overjoyed, thanked her again, and then descended the mountain.

Upon returning home, Xiao Xuan began to Cultivate, one could say without sleep or rest.

Because of this, Xiao Xuan's mortal parents were terrified, thinking that Xiao Xuan had become possessed.

"Tie Zhu! Eat a bite of food!"

"Tie Zhu, open the door, open the door!"

"…"

"I won't eat! I want to Cultivate! Leave me alone!" Xiao Xuan shouted from inside the room.

"That won't do! You haven't eaten for so long! How can that be?"

"Exactly, even if you don't eat, shouldn't you at least drink something? Drink some rice porridge?"

"I won't eat! I won't drink! I want to Cultivate properly! I want to marry Baobao!"

"…"

Hearing Xiao Xuan's words, his parents in this life were dumbfounded.

They thought their son was sick, so they went to fetch a physician, forcibly pried open the door, and had the physician take Xiao Xuan's pulse.

"The pulse is steady… the body is very healthy." The physician looked astonished.

"Healthy? That can't be… My son has gone mad! He hasn't eaten or drunk anything!" Xiao Xuan's mother worried.

"This… it might be a mental illness, you should find an exorcist to take a look." The physician shook his head.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xuan's parents became even more worried. After seeing the physician off, they forcibly took Xiao Xuan to the exorcist in the village.

Then the exorcist performed a ritual and said that Xiao Xuan was possessed, bewitched by a ghost…

"It's a female ghost! A very fierce one!!" The exorcist said solemnly, staring intently at Xiao Xuan: "Did you see something unclean?!"

Xiao Xuan was confused: "You… what are you talking about? The one I saw was an Immortal!"

Once these words were spoken, Xiao Xuan's parents were convinced that Xiao Xuan was possessed.

Immortal?!

Where would there be an Immortal?!

They immediately begged the exorcist to perform a ritual to help exorcise the demon from Xiao Xuan.

"Rest assured! You know my capabilities. Which ghost or monster within a ten-mile radius doesn't fear me?" The exorcist said smugly.

Hearing this, Xiao Xuan's parents felt relieved…

Xiao Xuan wanted to resist, but his parents immediately called for the villagers, and soon a group of people held Xiao Xuan down.

Xiao Xuan had just started to Cultivate and had no Dao attainments whatsoever, so he couldn't resist at all.

"Don't… let me go! I'm not sick! I want to marry Baobao! I want to Cultivate! That really was an Immortal!" Xiao Xuan roared.

However, no one believed Xiao Xuan's words; they all thought he was possessed.

According to the exorcist, the female ghost possessing Xiao Xuan was very ferocious…

"Exorcist! I leave it to you…" Xiao Xuan's mother said.

"Rest assured! Catching female ghosts! That is my specialty!" The exorcist laughed, took a peach wood sword, and began stabbing at Xiao Xuan.

"Female ghost, come out! Female ghost, reveal yourself! Show yourself quickly…"

However, after a flurry of actions by the exorcist, there was no reaction from Xiao Xuan.

"I told you, I'm fine… stop making a scene! Hurry up and let me go!" Xiao Xuan roared in anguish.

"Exorcist, what is going on?!" Xiao Xuan's father asked.

"This isn't right…" The exorcist looked astonished, then suddenly thought of something: "I understand! He must have a treasure given by the female ghost on him! Right?!!"
