Chapter 7
When Venerable Dao Xuan heard this, he could not help but feel a little sad.
On the path of martial arts, Qi Refinement, Genesis, Ningdan, Purple Core…
No matter which realm it was, it could not do without the help of resources. And his most beloved disciple had pretty much cut off his path to condensing his core because of the burden of his family.
Thinking of this, Venerable Dao Xuan placed the teacup on the stone table. “Don’t worry about this. I’ll at least apply for a breeding line for a peak-level Tier 1 demon beast for you.”
“I thank you on behalf of the Patriarch!” When Chen Yang heard this, his eyes immediately filled with tears.
“Good child, it’s your Patriarch’s good fortune to have a descendant like you.” Venerable Daoxuan waved his sleeve and an invisible spiritual energy wiped the tears from the corners of Chen Yang’s eyes.
“You flatter me.”
Seeing Venerable Dao Xuan’s satisfied expression, Chen Yang could not help but snicker in his heart.
It seemed that the acting lessons he had paid for in his previous life had not been in vain. This was good. He would probably be able to get a lot of benefits if the Beastmaster Sect owed him.
“Apart from the production line, I have no other requests.”
Chen Yang planned to retreat in order to advance and let Venerable Dao Xuan take the initiative to benefit the Chen family.
Sure enough, when Master Dao Xuan heard this, he looked relieved. “Child, don’t worry about me. Forget it, I’ll give your Chen family a Meridian Unlocking Pill.”
“This will also allow your Chen family to stabilize the foundation to become a ninth-grade aristocratic family. However, you won’t have any benefits next. After all, the Beastmaster Sect still has to stop the Gongsun family from dealing with your Chen family.”
“These are enough! Chen Yang thanks you again.”
At the side, Chen Xuan was almost dumbfounded. The Beastmaster Sect had given him alot this time, but from the looks of it, the Beastmaster Sect seemed to still owe the Chen family.
The art of language.
The ancients were right.
After the two sides discussed the reward, Venerable Dao Xuan asked Chen Yang and his companion to wait in his courtyard.
As for himself, he went to the Sect Master’s Hall to apply for the Chen family’s reward.
Two hours later, Venerable Dao Xuan came with a white jade pill bottle.
As soon as they met, Venerable Dao Xuan went straight to the point. “The reward is here. First, the breeding line you want.”
“After discussion with the sect, we’ve decided to let you raise the Green-horned Bull. Although this Green-horned Bull is a demon beast with a peak Rank One bloodline, it still has a chance of breaking through to the Demon General Realm.”
“Therefore, the value of this Green-horned Bull is quite high. Although the sect doesn’t need many of them, I estimate that it can still create 2,000 spirit stones of profit for you every year.”
“In a while, I’ll get my disciple to bring the two of you to collect ten Green-horned Bulls.”
“Also, this is a Meridian Unlocking Pill. Take it and go back.”
“Thank you, Master!” Chen Yang received the white jade bottle respectfully. Then, he followed Master Dao Xuan’s disciple and received ten adult Green-horned Bulls, five of them male and five female.
The Chen family’s Ten Thousand Beast Technique had a simple secret technique to control demon beasts. It was relatively easy to control the Green-horned Bull and successfully put it into the Beast Taming Bag.
After receiving these rewards, Chen Yang and Chen Xuan did not dare to delay. They hurriedly led everyone back to the family clan.
Eight days later, looking at the gradually becoming clear city gate of Maple City, Chen Xuan heaved a sigh of relief. “I’m finally back. I was really afraid that I wouldn’t be able to come back with the treasure.”
“The Chen family has to thank Family Head for obtaining so many treasures this time.”
“There’s no need to thank us as a family. Let’s go into the city!”
Immediately, Chen Yang rode the Gale Wolf and led the others into Maple City.
The Chen family.
As soon as Chen Yang returned to the clan, he pulled Chen Xuan and the other seven elders into the meeting hall.
At this moment, other than the Ninth Elder who was guarding the breeding base, all the powerful figures of the Chen family were in the meeting hall.
Glancing at everyone, Chen Yang took out a jade bottle containing the Meridian Unlocking Pill. “There are two things. First, I’ve decided to give the Meridian Unlocking Pill rewarded by the Beastmaster Sect to the First Elder.”
Chen Yang’s words caused a huge commotion in the meeting hall.
Chen Xuan immediately stood up and objected, “Family Head, you can’t do that. This Meridian Unlocking Pill is a seventh-grade pill. It can increase the probability of breaking through to the Genesis Realm by 30%.”
“How can I withstand such a precious pill? In my opinion, this pill should be given to you, Family Head.”
“There’s no need to discuss this matter. I’m the head of the family. I have the final say.” Chen Yang waved his hand and stopped Chen Xuan.
“The First Elder has worked hard and is a martial artist at the peak of the Qi Refinement realm. Logically speaking, I hope you can understand why I want the First Elder to use this Meridian Unlocking Pill.”
“However, First Elder, you owe the family a lot of contribution points this time.”
“We understand.” The head of the family did not object, and the other elders were even less likely to find themselves uncomfortable.
Chen Xuan looked around and sighed before taking the Meridian Unlocking Pill.
“Family Head, don’t worry. I, Chen Xuan, will definitely be under your command for the rest of my life. No matter how high my realm is, I will not say anything else. If I violate this oath, I will be killed!”.
Chen Xuan suddenly made a martial arts oath in front of everyone.
In this world, martial arts oaths were remembered by the Heavenly Dao. Although the Heavenly Dao did not have the time to punish you according to the contents of the oath, it was still relatively easy to kill you.
The reason why Chen Xuan swore in front of so many people was to show his loyalty to Chen Yang.
On the other hand, he was telling the other elders that times had changed. It was now Chen Yang’s era.
Chen Yang was stunned for a moment before he understood what Chen Xuan meant. He immediately smiled bitterly. “Is there a need for First Elder to do this?”
“Alright, let’s continue with the second matter. The Beastmaster Sect has rewarded the Chen family with the right to raise Green-horned Bulls.”
“I’ve decided to open up half of Green Mountain as a breeding base for the Green-horned Bulls.”
“But this way, Green Mountain will definitely not have enough people. Are any of you willing to help Ninth Elder?”
The eight elders looked around. Then the eighth elder got up from his chair and cupped his hands. “Family Head, I’ll go.”
“In that case, I’ll have to trouble Eighth Elder. Dismissed.”
Chen Yang handed the Beast Taming Bag to the Eighth Elder and left the meeting hall under the respectful gazes of the elders.
In Chen Yang’s courtyard.
After dispersing the maidservant, Chen Yang released the Dao Integration Bead.
“Dao Integration Bead, refine energy.” According to the information given by the Dao Integration Bead, the energy accumulated every day had a certain limit.
Therefore, Chen Yang planned to see where the energy limit of the Dao Integration Bead was.
Following Chen Yang’s order, the Chen family’s luck gathered beside the Dao Integration Bead and was devoured bit by bit.
Only after consuming 1% of the Chen family’s luck did the energy absorbed by the Dao Integration Bead reach its current limit.
“One percent? That’s normal.” Chen Yang nodded. It seemed that the Dao Integration Bead still knew its limits.
The luck of a family was not static. Logically speaking, it was normal for it to fluctuate within three percent.
“For the time being, I’ll use the Dao Integration Bead to absorb energy to its limit. This way, it’ll be easier for me to make arrangements in the future.”
Chen Yang planned to define these energies with numbers. This would also help Chen Yang understand how much energy was needed to strengthen it to a certain extent.
