Chapter 19
In the Chen family’s residence in Maple City, Nanyang County.
“I’m finally back.” Looking at the Chen family’s residence, Chen Yang could not hide his excitement.
“You’re finally back, Family Head. I have something important to report.”
Just as Chen Yang stood in front of the residence and sighed, Second Elder Chen Meng quickly rushed over and said excitedly.
“Second Elder, what is it?”
“Family Head, the fertilizer plan you set has borne fruit. The person in charge of the estate reported that the spirit rice that was sprinkled with fertilizer is clearly much stronger than the others.”
“According to the person in charge, the yield of this spiritual rice will probably double.” Chen Meng smiled.
“Really? Quickly bring me to take a look.” Chen Yang could not be bothered to return to the family at this moment and hurriedly followed the Second Elder to the Chen family farm.
On the farm.
Chen Yang looked at the rice that was obviously stronger than the other spiritual rice and couldn’t help but laugh. “I didn’t expect this fertilizer to really be useful. If it’s used well, wouldn’t spirit stones roll in?”
Immediately, Chen Yang decided that all the spirit rice in the Chen Manor had to be fertilized. As for ordinary rice, Maple City never lacked it anyway, so it didn’t matter.
In the following period of time, what the Chen family needed to pay attention to was the annual worship of the ancestors and the Genesis Feast for the First Elder.
Neither of these two major events had any accidents. This made Chen Yang heave a sigh of relief and focus on cultivating.
Time flew by. In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.
In this month, nothing major happened to the major families and forces in Jiangzhou. All of them were developing steadily.
However, an undercurrent had already quietly arrived on Jiangzhou’s Beastmaster Sect.
“ROAR!”
Inside the Beastmaster Sect, an angry roar suddenly sounded.
Immediately after, under the shocked gazes of many disciples of the Beastmaster Sect, a 50-meter-long Scarlet Flame Python that emitted a soul-stirring aura appeared in the air.
On the Scarlet Flame Python stood a fox. This fox was a Demon Venerable-level Spirit Ear Fox. It was talented and could speak human language at the third level of the Demon Venerable realm.
Usually, if demon beasts wanted to talk to humans, they would communicate through the Spirit Ear Fox.
“Purple Core Patriarch of the Beastmaster Sect, come out. My king wants to see you!” The spirit-eared fox said arrogantly.
“I was wondering who it was. So it’s Scarlet Flame Demon King. What can I do for you?”
As soon as the Spirit Ear Fox finished speaking, an aura that was no weaker than Scarlet Flame Demon King’s burst out from the Beastmaster Sect. Immediately after, a white-haired, youthful-looking old man came to Scarlet Flame Demon King with a smile.
“Hiss, hiss, hiss.”
“My king said that you people of the Beastmaster Sect killed my wife and snatched away the descendant that contains my king’s bloodline.”
“As long as you hand over the murderer and return the king’s son, my king will leave,” the Spirit Ear Fox translated.
Hearing this, the Patriarch of the Beastmaster Sect frowned. “Kill the son of the king? Scarlet Flame Demon King, are you sure?”
“Hiss, hiss, hiss.”
“Of course. My king has already smelled the aura of your Beastmaster Sect from Madam. Hurry up and hand over the murderer and the eldest prince. Otherwise, the entire Beastmaster Sect will be wiped out.”
“Hmph! Scarlet Flame Demon King is so arrogant. If you want to slaughter my Beastmaster Sect, you have to consider your strength.”
Seeing the Scarlet Flame Demon King pressuring him, the expression of the Beastmaster Sect’s Patriarch instantly turned cold.
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
When the Scarlet Flame Demon King saw this, he was also prepared to attack. For a moment, dark clouds covered the Beastmaster Sect.
After a while, it was Scarlet Flame Demon King who compromised first.
“My king said that as long as your sect hands over the murderer, he will leave. If you don’t believe my king, you can confront him.”
When the Beastmaster Sect’s Patriarch heard this, he frowned. In the end, he also took a step back. “May I ask, Your Majesty, how strong is Madam?”
“Demon Venerable.”
The Patriarch nodded and said to the back, “All of you, come over and let the king identify you.”
Immediately, all the Ningdan Venerable Masters appeared. They stood in the open space and activated their spiritual energies, waiting for the Scarlet Flame Demon King to identify the person.
Only those at the Purple Core Realm could fly in the air, so this group of Ningdan experts could only stand on the ground and wait.
The Scarlet Flame Demon King sniffed carefully and immediately recognized the murderer. His eyes were red as he rushed towards the three of them.
BANG!
At this moment, the Beastmaster Sect’s Patriarch stood in front of the three of them and looked at the Scarlet Flame Demon King with an unfriendly expression. “Scarlet Flame Demon King, don’t go overboard. This matter has yet to be concluded!”
The Scarlet Flame Demon King knew that if he could not produce any evidence, this old thing would definitely not let him make a move.
Immediately, the Scarlet Flame Demon King roared at the Spirit Ear Fox.
“My Great King said that those three people are the murderers of Madam. My Great King remembers the auras of the three of them.” The Spirit Ear Fox pointed at Elder Qiu and the other two.
Seeing that the Spirit Ear Fox was pointing at the three of them, the Beastmaster Sect’s Patriarch thought to himself that this was not good. This was because he had personally sent these three people out. Could they have really killed the wife of the Scarlet Flame Demon King?
Immediately, the Patriarch of the Beastmaster Sect flew to the three of them. “Did the three of you kill Scarlet Flame Demon King’s wife?”
The three of them shook their heads. “Never.”
“Your Majesty, did you see that?” The Beastmaster Sect’s Patriarch glanced at the Scarlet Flame Demon King.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
“My king has said that your words do not count. Let these three confront my king.” The Spirit Ear Fox quickly translated what the Scarlet Flame Demon King had said.
“Alright, which one of you will go forward and confront the Scarlet Flame Demon King?” The Patriarch looked at Elder Qiu and the others.
The three elders looked at each other, then Elder Qiu took a step forward. “Forget it, let me answer the king’s question.”
The Patriarch nodded and immediately used his spiritual energy to lift Elder Qiu into the air. “Your Majesty, ask away.”
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
“The king said if you’ve been out in the last three months.”
“I went out two months ago.” Elder Qiu’s expression did not change.
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
“Then what’s there to talk about? It was during this period of time that the three of you killed my King’s wife and took away my King’s heir!”
After the Spirit Ear Fox translated, the Scarlet Flame Demon King was about to attack. At this moment, Elder Qiu raised his hand to stop him. “Wait!”
“Your Majesty, it’s true that the three of us went out, but the only snake-type demon beast we killed was the Spirit Eye Python. If you don’t believe me, you can ask a mighty figure who’s good at soul searching to search my soul!”
Elder Qiu was confident that it was impossible for him to kill the wife of the Scarlet Flame Demon King.
“Hiss!” Unexpectedly, as soon as Elder Qiu said this, the Scarlet Flame Demon King became even angrier.
The Spirit Ear Fox looked at the Scarlet Flame Demon King in disbelief. In the end, he braced himself and translated, “My king said that the Spirit Eye Python was his wife.”
“Hmph! Scarlet Flame Demon King, are you looking for trouble?” The Beastmaster Sect’s Patriarch instantly mobilized the spiritual energy in his body and emitted a terrifying aura.
“The Scarlet Flame Python and the Spirit Eye Python are mortal enemies. If you say that the Spirit Eye Python was your wife, you might as well say that a human was your wife!”
