Chapter 487 – Gladly Teach You

Chapter 487 – Gladly Teach You

Ever since he had been transported here by the Book of Time and Space, Ye Tian had been in a terrible mood. But then again, wasn't this in some way a rather unique experience?

At that thought, Ye Tian decided not to dwell on it anymore. He stepped out of his room, and at that moment, Han Zhengyun spotted him and called out, "Mother, he's awake. If you have questions, just ask him yourself."

"Alright then. I'd like to see whether this so-called immortal is real or fake."

Zhao Lanzhi, Han Zhengyun's mother, didn't believe for a second that immortals could just fall from the sky. She looked at Ye Tian and said, "Young man, come here!"

Ye Tian walked over to her and asked, "Ma'am, is there something you'd like to ask?"

"Ma'am? Did I hear that right?"

"Hmm? Was that incorrect? Should I call you Granny instead?"

Upon hearing that, Zhao Lanzhi was utterly speechless. "Just call me Big Sis!"

"All this big sis and miss stuff—just say what you want already."

"You—!"

Ye Tian could tell that Zhao Lanzhi clearly didn't trust him, which explained her tone. But he had little patience for people who distrusted him.

"Hmph, and you call yourself an immortal? Daughter, take a good look at him. If he's really an immortal, then there must be no such thing as immortals in this world—he's got no manners whatsoever!"

Ye Tian shook his head and said, "Indeed, I'm not some immortal. When your daughter saw me fall from the sky, she assumed I was an immortal. I didn't bother explaining and just went along with it."

"If you're not an immortal, then what are you?"

Ye Tian felt a spark of anger. He was already frustrated enough with Tathāgata and Guanyin for sending him to this place, and now this woman's attitude was just rubbing salt in the wound.

"Well? What are you?"

"I'm a cultivator."

As soon as he said that, a small flame suddenly appeared in Ye Tian's palm. He casually tossed the flame out, let it swirl through the air, and then had it return to his hand before extinguishing it.

"You really are an immortal! Oh dear, Immortal, I really didn't mean to offend you just now. Have I made you angry? Please forgive me—I'll kowtow to you!"

Zhao Lanzhi immediately dropped to her knees and began kowtowing. Ye Tian was at a loss for words. Were humans always this terrified of immortals?

"There's really no need for that. You were so rude to me earlier, and now you're suddenly this respectful? Are you afraid of me?"

"I'm not afraid! I just didn't know you were an immortal before. Now that I do, of course I must show proper respect. Daughter, hurry up and invite the Immortal to sit and rest!"

Ye Tian sat down in a chair and said, "You really don't need to be so formal with me. Even if I'm considered an immortal, I'm a stranded one. I won't be staying here permanently. I need to find a way to leave this place. So while I'm here for the next few days, I'll have to trouble you."

"No trouble at all! It's our honor to have an immortal in our home. You can stay as long as you like!"

"In that case, I won't stand on ceremony."

Ye Tian truly had no intention of staying here long. He had to find a way back. This wasn't his world. Guanyin and Tathāgata were probably thrilled that they had finally gotten rid of him.

But he was going to return. If he didn't even try to get back, what pride would he have left?

"I don't even know what this place is. Could you tell me what this world is called?"

"This is the Tianwu Continent, where martial artists reign supreme."

"Oh? Is that so?"

Ye Tian was a bit surprised. He hadn't expected to land in a world like this. If Tathāgata really knew how to use the Book of Time and Space, he definitely wouldn't have sent Ye Tian here.

So if Ye Tian had to guess, Tathāgata probably didn't know how to use it properly and just dumped him somewhere random.

Still, this world didn't seem too bad.

Since it looked like a decent place, Ye Tian figured he might as well stay for a while. After all, he was already here—might as well make the most of it.

"Han Zhengyun, your talent seems decent. If you're willing, I'd be glad to teach you some cultivation techniques."

"Really?"

"Of course. The question is—are you willing?"

"Of course I am!"

She was clearly overjoyed by Ye Tian's offer. Ye Tian nodded and said, "Since you're willing, that's good. I won't just freeload in your home. Over the next few days, I'll teach you some cultivation techniques. Hopefully, you'll make good use of them."

As they spoke, footsteps suddenly echoed from outside, followed by a shout: "Han Zhengyun! Are you home? Don't bother hiding—I won't let you escape me no matter what!"

"It's him again!"

"Who is it?" Ye Tian asked, noticing Han Zhengyun looked a little nervous.

"His name is Wang Tianhu. He's been pestering me relentlessly. Looks like he's back again today."

"Oh? And you can't deal with him yourself?"

"I really can't. He's very strong—a formidable martial artist in our area. Immortal, could you help me deal with him? If you do, he'll stop bothering me for good."

"Very well. That's a piece of cake for me."

Wang Tianhu had already barged in and was startled to see Han Zhengyun with another man. Jealousy flashed in his eyes as he demanded, "Who the hell is this guy? So you refuse me but accept some other man? Are you just playing me for a fool?"

Ye Tian replied coldly, "You're seriously delusional. That kind of delusion isn't a good look, you know?"
