Chapter 12: Live In Son In Law?
Jia Hao sat in the car along with Su Yunqi as they saw police arresting Li Xumin. Everyone there was shocked when they heard the accusation against Li Xumin.
” Bah! What a scumbag!”
” Karma truly bit him back!”
” He deserves it.”
However, It barely had any effect on the auction of jade stones. In fact, it turned out to be an unexpected entertainment for the rich who gathered there.
” Hao’er, How did you know about that girl?” Su Yunqi turned around and looked at Jia Hao.
” Well, As I said, I accidentally heard their words. Not to mention, I found the girl weeping in the hallway. Seeing the bruises on her neck and arms, I felt like she got sexually assaulted.”
” After consoling her, She agreed to lodge a complaint against Li Xumin.”
Jia Hao remembered the image panels of Li Xumin molesting and blackmailing various girls. And those cutscenes happened in the hallway of this place.
With his Sage’s Divine Eyes, Jia Hao didn’t have much difficulty finding that girl. After making her understand and promising 100,000 Yuan as compensation for sending her off to another city, she agreed to stand up against Li Xumin.
‘ Only if the girls here could muster a bit of courage here, 80% of bad ending trope would vanish here.’ Jia Hao sighed in his heart.
But precisely they can’t do that, which makes the villains almost omnipotent here.
Maybe, That’s also the reason why Jia Hao can easily control the women of the Tianshu World? After all, the protagonists in Urban Fantasy aren’t much different from the villains, other than being more charming.
Originally, Jia Hao’s fate was going to be the same as other male NPCs here, watching their beloved women getting taken away and mind broken by villains, who are the real protagonists here.
However, Jia Hao, who knows almost every plot in Urban Fantasy, along with his Pot of Miracle, can simply turn his and all the women’s fate around.
” Aunt Su, I hope you can give that girl 100,000 Yuan and shift her to another city, where no one knows her and her boyfriend.” Jia Hao looked at Su Yunqi.
” You are really considerate, Hao’er.” Su Yunqi rubbed Jia Hao’s head as she smiled. ” We earned a lot tonight. So, Spending a little bit won’t hurt at all.”
Soon after that, they arrived back in the villa. Jia Hao walked straight to his room and closed his door.
‘ According to the Pot of Miracle, I needed to think about Tianxiu World and sleep. Then I will get transported there.’ Jia Hao thought inwardly.
After reaching the first layer, Jia Hao felt like the space inside the Pot of Miracles increased a lot. Although it looks small outside, the space inside it already reached one cubic meter.
‘ Wait, I remember! Along with the Appraisal function, another function called Enchantment is also activated.’ Jia Hao closed his eyes and focused on the Pot of Miracles.
Suddenly, he felt he was transported inside a mysterious dark space, with mist floating on the ground and washing his feet. In front of him was the Pot of Miracles.
Unlike before, it grew in size, almost two feet tall, looking like a majestic square sacrificial pot.
” Enchantment!
[ Chaos Energy: 100/100 Unit]
[ Holy Radiance Torch: 1 Torch+1 high grade Holy Light Stone+Wood of Luminous Holy Tree. Creation cost 100 Unit Chaos Energy]
[ Energy Recovering Bars: 1 Dark Chocolate Bar+1 Litre of Pure Spring Water+ 5 roots of 500 Year old Ginseng+80 Unit Chaos Energy]
[Great Eraser: 1 Rubber Eraser+ 100 ML. Dark Sapling Juice+ 50ML Urine of Two Tailed Lizard+70 Unit Chaos Energy]
Jia Hao was stunned when he saw the list of the items. After that, he finally pieced the information together which he got from the Pot of Miracles.
Basically, every time he goes through the space time vortex to the Yunlan Continent, His Pot of Miracles will assign Chao Energy to his items to transform them into various treasures.
However, as everyone knows, miracles are unpredictable like a gaccha game. So, even if Jia Hao takes another torch with him right now, there is a good amount of chance the torch would turn into something different than the Holy Radiance Torch.
Therefore, if he wishes to make another Holy Radiance Torch, he just needs to gather all these things and place them in the Pot of Miracles, turning the ordinary torch into the Holy Radiance Torch.
‘ However, It’s very tough. After all, I get 100 Chaos Energy every time I go from the Tianshu World to Yunlan Continent. If I spend all Chaos Energy making one torch, the other items won’t turn into treasures.”
It’s simply a game of probability. Either one can focus on one item and make it into a powerful treasure, or they can simply let 100 units of Chaos Energy do random enchantment.
‘ However, I believe there is a possibility to control the probability of enchantment. Hmm, I should experiment with it carefully.”
Jia Hao still has a Super Eraser and a pencil which he took to the Tianxiu World. Unfortunately, he couldn’t use the treasures by himself till he restored the pot to the third layer.
Nonetheless, If he can’t use his own treasures, he will simply exchange them with the treasures that he can use in Tianxiu World.
” Now, Now… What should I bring this time?” Jia Hao became amused as he thought for a moment. Suddenly, clapping his hand, he walked out of his room and went to the kitchen.
He took two bottles of soft drinks, a packet of glucose Tang, A sharp chef’s knife, and a packet of chocolates.
” Let’s go there and see how these things will work.” Jia Hao hurried back to his room and fell on the bed.
” Assign all the Chaos Energy equally to all items.” Jia Hao thought inwardly as he fell into sleep.
He could feel the colorful lights washing above him as he opened his eyes. Looking at his surroundings, he was amazed.
” Damn! I really came here!”
The ancient bed with wooden furnishing around him gave off an aura of old nobility. However, Looking at the outside, Jia Hao frowned.
” This…This is not right…”
Jia Hao got up from the bed and realized there was a pair of ancient clothes in the living room, perfect for his size. Jia Hao chuckled as he picked the clothes and changed into them.
Although they felt a bit odd, When Jia Hao looked at himself with the bronze mirror, he couldn’t help but laugh.
” Now, Who is the most handsome, most divine scholar in ancient times? Yes, It’s me! Young Master Jia Hao!”
” Ahem…”
Seeing no one around, Jia Hao chuckled as he walked outside. Seeing a maid, Jia Hao asked lightly. ” How long have I slept inside my room?”
” Young Lord, Only an hour has passed.” The maid bowed before Jia Hao and spoke. ” Besides, Second Miss has told me to ask you to go to her after you wake up.”
” What? Only an hour passed?” Jia Hao felt his brain short circuited for a minute.
‘ Wait, I thought time here flowed five times faster than Azure Star World? How only one hour passed here even if five hours passed in Azure Star World?”‘
‘ Could it be… Pot of Miracle is slowing down the time after I leave Tianxiu World?’ Jia Hao came to a mind blowing possibility.
As he thought inwardly, he followed the maid to the main hall. Suddenly, Cai Lingzhi appeared before Jia Hao as she was pouted.
” Where you were? Hurry up and come with me. The marriage candidate selection for Elder Sister is going to begin.”
” What?” Jia Hao was stunned as he walked with her. ” And how are you going to select?”
” We aren’t selecting any practitioners. We are selecting the most outstanding scholar who would become our live in son in law.” Cai Lingzhi mumbled.
” Although I don’t want this, This is the best action for now.” Cai Lingzhi suddenly paused as she looked at Jia Hao.
” Why do you want to participate?”
” Huh?”
