Chapter 20
“Not to mention us, would your father believe your nonsense?”
“Scarlet Flame Python and Spirit Eye Python mating? Hmph! If you want to cause trouble for my Beastmaster Sect, why don’t you find a better reason?!”
The Beastmaster Sect’s Patriarch was a little angry now. This Scarlet Flame Demon King was obviously treating him like a fool. He did not say anything good and postured to fight him.
At this moment, the Scarlet Flame Demon King could not say anything. This old man was right about one thing. Even his father did not believe that his wife was a Spirit Eye Python.
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
“My king has said that these three must be handed over to him, whether you believe him or not!”
“Evil creature! You have a death wish!”
Seeing that the Scarlet Flame Demon King was forcing him, the Beastmaster Sect’s Patriarch immediately summoned his Demon King-level natal beast.
The battle had officially begun!
This battle severed the spiritual mountains beside the Beastmaster Sect. The rivers flowed in reverse. The entire Beastmaster Sect was like hell on earth.
If not for the help of the sect’s protective array formation, the Beastmaster Sect would probably have been destroyed by the aftershock.
The battle lasted for three days before it ended with the victory of the Beastmaster Sect’s patriarch. Although the Scarlet Flame Demon King was not weak, this was the Beastmaster Sect’s territory after all.
In addition, with the cooperation of the Beastmaster Sect’s Patriarch and his Demon King Beast, even the Scarlet Flame Demon King would be defeated.
“Old man, listen. My king said that this matter is not over yet.
“Two years later, the king will return. At that time, it won’t be your Beastmaster Sect anymore. The entire Jiangzhou will have to bear the anger of my king!”
After the Scarlet Flame Demon King left, the Beastmaster Sect’s ancestor wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and came to Elder Qiu and the other two. “Tell me the truth. Did you kill that bastard’s spouse?”
“Patriarch, we’re telling the truth. We only killed one Spirit Eye Python on this trip.”
“Have you seen that little Scarlet Flame Python?” The Patriarch asked again.
“I’ve seen the Scarlet Python before, but it’s the descendant of the Spirit Eye Python. It’s probably also mating with other demon beasts with the Scarlet Python bloodline.”
“And that Scarlet Flame Python was also taken away by the young prince of the Estate of King De.”
“The young prince of King De?” The Patriarch sensed that something was wrong. “Do you mean that the Estate of King De is involved? Is there anything special about this?
Elder Qiu carefully recalled for a while. “There doesn’t seem to be anything special. If there is anything, it’s that people of the Estate of King De first got the Nanyang Family to lure the Spirit Eye Python away, then sneaked in and stole the Scarlet Flame Python.
“Did the people with Prince De’s reveal their auras?” The Patriarch continued to ask.
“No.” Elder Qiu shook his head.P
When the Beastmaster Sect’s Patriarch heard this, his expression turned ugly. “It seems that what this Scarlet Flame Demon King said is true. That Spirit Eye Python is its spouse. All of you have been used by Prince De.”
“How… how is this possible?” Elder Qiu still could not believe it.
After all, the Scarlet Flame Python and the Spirit Eye Python were mortal enemies. It was clearly illogical for the two of them to get together.
“That’s most likely what happened.”
The people of King De’s Estate are domineering. Now that they’re so careful about snatching a Scarlet Flame Python and don’t dare to reveal their aura, they probably already know that it’s the descendant of the Scarlet Flame Demon King.” The Patriarch analyzed.
When the three elders heard this, their expressions instantly turned ugly. They did not expect that the three of them would actually be used by the people from King De’s Estate.
“Patriarch, why don’t we report this matter to the Human King? This matter is clearly the fault of the royal family, but the consequences are for our Beastmaster Sect to bear?”
Elder Qiu was a quick-tempered person to begin with. After knowing that he had been used, he immediately planned to expose this matter.
“No.” The Patriarch shook his head. “King De’s estate is powerful. The Human King might not favor us.”
“Besides, who will believe this if word gets out? At that time, people will only think that we angered the Scarlet Flame Demon King and made the people of the King De’s Estate take the blame.”
“It’s better to endure it for now. When the Scarlet Flame Demon King really plans to make a big deal out of it, we’ll report this matter to the Human King in the name of asking for help.”
“The reason is that this Scarlet Flame Demon King intends to break the agreement and casually found a reason to attack Jiangzhou.
“When the time comes, we’ll secretly advise the Estate of King De. The Prince of De’s Estate will know that they’re in the wrong and will definitely speak up for us. No matter how big this matter gets, the ones who suffer will be the demon beasts.”
“After all, let alone us humans, even demon beasts wouldn’t believe that a Scarlet Flame Python could get together with a Spirit Eye Python.”
Hearing the Patriarch’s words, the three elders revealed admiration in their eyes.
As expected of the Patriarch, he was able to turn something that was unreasonable into reasonable. At the same time, he could make King De’s Estate owe them a favor.
The battle in the Beastmaster Sect quickly spread throughout the entire Jiangzhou. Even the Chen family in Maple City knew about this.
However, the Chen family did not have the time to care about such gossip. At this moment, the Chen family was cultivating crazily for the sake of the ruins.
In the blink of an eye, a year passed.
Due to the sequence system set last year and the fact that there were more spirit stones than in previous years, the cultivation levels of the Chen family had improved significantly.
However, after a year of extravagant cultivation, the Chen family would enter a new round of frugal cultivation.
After all, the Green-horned Bull had already begun to give birth. In order to ensure the production of the Green-horned Bull, the Chen family could only save on their cultivation plans.
Everyone knew that this was a necessary investment in order to have more resources to cultivate in the future. No one had any complaints.
The only consolation was that the production of the spiritual rice with fertilizer had doubled compared to the previous year, providing the family with 200 spirit stones.
The profit of 200 spirit stones was quite a lot. Even if the cultivation resources of the family head doubled last year, it was only 100 spirit stones.
If these spirit stones were provided to Chen Yang, it would be enough for him to cultivate extravagantly for two years.
In Chen Yang’s courtyard.
Whoosh!”
Taking a deep breath, Chen Yang slowly opened his eyes. “In a year, I’ve reached the peak of Qi Refinement. It seems that this body’s aptitude is very extraordinary.”
“It’s said that seventh-grade factions all have spirit artifacts that test aptitude. I wonder how far my aptitude will reach.”
‘Not too bad, though, come to think of it.’
The Chen family also had something to test one’s aptitude, but it was a little inaccurate. It could only test if one could cultivate, but not accurately test one’s specific aptitude.
The Chen family’s judgment of aptitude basically depended on how much one’s cultivation had increased in a year.
“I’ve already reached the peak of Qi Refinement. In addition, this Dao Integration Bead has also accumulated 122 points of energy this year.”
“Using this energy to increase the cultivation of the Mystic Wind Wolf, we should be able to defeat a puppet at the peak of the Qi Refinement realm.”
Ever since Chen Xuan broke through to the Genesis Realm, the Chen family’s luck had doubled, and the speed of recovery had also doubled. The energy that Chen Yang could absorb had also doubled.
To put it simply, although they all recovered one percent in seven days, because the total amount of clan luck had doubled, the energy that Chen Yang could absorb had also doubled.
