Chapter 2 Chutian's Crisis
At dawn, Chu Tian returned to the woodshed.
That night, he suddenly disappeared without attracting the attention of the Ye family's servants. He yawned and prepared to go to bed and take a nap. Unexpectedly, the butler had already appeared outside the woodshed.
Dongdongdongdongdongdong!
"Son-in-law, the time is almost over, don't let the old man wait too long."
"I'll change my clothes and wait outside."
…
The butler's face turned gloomy when he heard this, and the servant beside him said flatteringly: "I'd teach this kid a lesson and really think that he is the son-in-law of the Ye family. How dare you talk to you like this?"
"Don't forget your identity. We are servants. He is the master here, even if it's only a few hours." The butler said gloomyly.
At the same time, Chu Tian opened the door, changed into the clothes he sent yesterday, looked at the two of them, "Let's go."
Under the guidance of the butler, Chu Tian came to the pavilion in the backyard.
"Xiaotian is here, where is Qiu'er? Why didn't he come with him?" Old Master Ye said, showing a bitter smile on his old face, "Qiu'er has liked to stay in bed since she was a child. Now that she is married, she has to change it."
The housekeeper had already prepared his words and explained: "Old ancestor, the lady heard that Mr. Liu had left the confinement sect, so she rushed to the weapon refining sect last night."
"I just know the nonsense."
Old Master Ye sighed, obviously he had no choice but to his granddaughter. After signaling the housekeeper to go down, Old Master Ye said:
"Xiaotian, don't think too much. Qiu'er has been spoiled since she was a child. She doesn't consider other people's feelings when she does anything. If you feel wronged, tell grandpa, when this little girl comes back, grandpa will vent your anger for you."
Before Chu Tian could answer, Old Master Ye had already changed the topic.
"Elder Liu of the Weapon Refining Sect is the top weapon refiner in the Eastern Region. He went into seclusion for Qiu'er half a year ago. I think he was anxious to see how the refining was going."
"I understand." Chu Tian nodded slightly, as if he had accepted this statement.
"As one of the five major families in the Eastern Region, the Ye family almost controls everything except a few long-standing sects." The old man said, his eyes falling on Chu Tian, "I am old and I have no intention of paying attention to many things. You need to work hard on your own and get the recognition of the Ye family, including the heart of Qiuer."
Chu Tian didn't expect him to say so bluntly, and nodded, "I will work hard."
The two chatted for a while.
"Okay, don't have to stay with me all the time. Just come and have a look." After the old man of the Ye family said, he picked up the fishing rod beside him, put on the fish food, held the tail of the bamboo pole and swung it skillfully, and the hook fell into the pond under the pavilion, with great skill.
Chu Tian stood up and left after hearing this. He did not say much about his current situation in the Ye family. He has never understood why Old Master Ye resisted the opposition and insisted on getting married with his granddaughter and agreeing to marry into his family.
Before coming, Chu Tian investigated that Ye Hanqiu, the eldest daughter of the Ye family, was not only talented but also amazing in appearance. No outstanding disciples from major sects could compete with him.
I have no cultivation and no background. I can marry the other party just because of a marriage letter and a jade pendant as a token?
This is absolutely impossible!
Old Master Ye has been in charge of the Ye family for hundreds of years, so he can naturally distinguish the powerful relationship between them. How could he make his granddaughter wronged for the sake of an old friend whom he has not seen for many years?
Chu Tian always felt that there was something strange about it and was always wary of Old Master Ye.
The housekeeper met Chu Tian and asked quickly, "Didn't my son-in-law say anything that shouldn't be said?"
Chu Tian glanced at him and said, "Don't worry, I promised Mrs. Ye, knowing what to say and what not to say."
"That's good, that's good. You see, it's not too early at this time. It's time to change your clothes and feed the guardian beast." The housekeeper said with a smile, with anxious eyes, as if he was afraid that Chu Tian would suddenly regret it.
"Okay, no problem."
Chu Tian agreed, he just wanted to know what this guy sold in the gourd.
...
The back mountain of the Ye family, outside the spiritual cave.
"We won't go in with you anymore." The butler said with a smile.
Chu Tian glanced at him and pushed the wheelbarrow into the hole with both hands.
There were glowing moon stones hanging on both sides of the cave. The light was not strong but I could barely see the surroundings. Chu Tian stopped shortly after walking, leaned his wheelbarrow aside, and his eyes fell on the pile of food.
Soon, Chu Tian discovered something strange.
"Sure enough...bloody cordata!" Chu Tian held a dark green herb with a cold light on his face. "If the monsters were eaten, no matter how gentle the monster was, it would go crazy. One was enough to go crazy for half an hour."
"I want to use monsters to kill me? The plan is pretty good. Unfortunately, I didn't expect that I knew these herbs, so don't blame me for being rude." Chu Tian snorted coldly, and the other party wanted to kill him, so there was no need to be rude.
After searching again, no problem was found. Chu Tian put the bloody cordata into the storage bag and pushed the wheelbarrow to continue moving forward. Although the other party was just the housekeeper of the Ye family, Chu Tian is still a giant today. Relying on his second-level martial artist's strength is no match for him at all, he needs to think of another way.
Chu Tian pushed the wheelbarrow to the end of the passage. A half-man-high guardrail was built on both sides of the raised platform. A huge pit was formed in the air below. The mountain above closed, like a shrinking flower bud, and a huge circular hole was left directly above, which seemed to be the real exit of the nest.
As Chu Tian threw the food down, there was movement after a moment.
A low roar came from the darkness. Chu Tian could vaguely see the outline of the guardian beast with the dim light and moon stone. His huge body was covered with a layer of black scales on the surface. He looked at the platform with dark green vertical pupils, and instantly came to the bottom of the platform with the deformed wings waving behind him.
"It's just a divine beast? The bloodline is too thin!" Chu Tian said contemptly and threw down a piece of food. "I still have a little expectation. Now it seems that the essence and blood of the whole body cannot condense a drop of Tiangou's essence and blood. The ancestors can swallow the sky and devour the moon, but now they are so depressed."
Roar roar roar ~~~
"Do you have any objections?" Chu Tian stopped throwing food down, and his head reached out to the fence, his eyes stared at the soul-swallowing beast, threatening.
The soul-swallowing beast seemed to understand Chu Tian's words, with a slightly closed pupil, a sharp roar sound from his mouth, and his deformed small wings trembled, and a hurricane hit.
Chu Tian was almost blown over and grabbed the guardrail. Unexpectedly, the beast's bloodline was not pure and its strength was not weak.
Seeing that the soul-swallowing beast was on the verge of madness, Chu Tian quickly said, "Don't you want to advance to the bloodline and reach the level of your ancestors?"
The soul-swallowing beast's body stiffened and his vertical pupils blinked. He understood Chu Tian's words, but in its eyes, the man in front of him was not even an ant, so how could he help him advance to his bloodline? After a low growl, he didn't bother to pay attention to Chu Tian and started eating.
Chu Tian threw food down and thought in his heart. Now he is surrounded by tigers and wolves in the Ye family. If he is not careful, he may be killed. Even if he steals the Wood Spirit Essence Yuan and leaves the Ye family, the cultivation world will be scrambling openly and secretly for resources, and life will be difficult.
As a Demon Lord in his previous life, he could never be worse than in his previous life. Cultivation is inevitable. If he can conquer the soul-swallowing beast, he will save a lot of trouble in the future.
Gradually, Chu Tian had some clues in his mind.
However, there is something more important to do now.
As the Demon Lord, Chu Tian does things
If you act recklessly, you will take revenge if you have revenge. You never take too much into consideration. Now that the damn housekeeper wants to kill him, it is not so easy to pass.
…
Half an hour later, Chu Tian pushed the wheelbarrow out of the cave.
"Have you left yet?" Chu Tian asked.
A trace of surprise flashed across the butler's face and said quickly:
"This is the first time you have fed a guardian beast? I'm worried that you can't handle it. Fortunately, there seems to be no trouble. Although this guardian beast has been subdued, it is still very irritable. Be careful in the future."
Chu Tian expressed his expression of approval.
"It's true, I don't know if the food is not fresh today. I suddenly felt crazy halfway through feeding, but I calmed down soon." Chu Tian muttered, with a little puzzled expression, but he couldn't help but snorted coldly in his heart. If he hadn't discovered the bloody cordata, he might have become a dim sum for the soul-swallowing beast now.
The housekeeper's face was changing, and he didn't expect that his conspiracy had been discovered, and he said in a different voice: "You have to be more careful in the future."
In his opinion, how could Chu Tian know about bloody cordata without cultivation? What's more, if he is really seen through, can a boy in his early twenties have such a cunning position?
Talk and laugh in the face of enemies?
Absolutely impossible!
"You are tired today, so you can go back and rest as soon as possible. You will also send food to the guardian beasts on time tomorrow." The housekeeper reminded him, with a gloomy face, and he turned around and left with two servants.
The expression on Chu Tian's face became even more gloomy. He could pretend to be nothing in front of him, but it doesn't mean he's really forgetting it. He just doesn't have the ability to fight head-on, just to be slandered.
Of course, Chu Tian doesn't believe in the nonsense that a gentleman takes revenge for ten years is not too late. This revenge must not only be avenged, but also be fast...
"With bloody cordata, if he dares to enter the cave tomorrow, he will take his life." Chu Tian's eyes flashed through, and in a flash, his anger retreated, humming a small song in his mouth, as if nothing had happened toward the woodshed.
The next morning, Chu Tian quietly appeared in the woodshed from the pendant space. Without realizing it, through one night of practice, the true qi in the dantian became thicker, and the bloody cordata that was placed on the window and dried overnight, coupled with the urging of the true qi, had also dried.
"It's almost done."
Chu Tian nodded with satisfaction, held the bloody cordata in his hand, and shocked his internal strength and turned it into dark green powder, and then put it into a jade bottle that had been prepared.
It was noon, and the housekeeper brought people over on time.
With Chu Tian, he came to the outside of the Fengling Cave.
"Son-in-law, let me accompany you in today. This guardian beast is basically the Ye family. You can't be neglected at all. Yesterday, it was a villain who neglected it."
He delivered it to the door himself, so Chu Tian naturally would not refuse.
Following the trend, the housekeeper grabbed the wheelbarrow and never left the food since his eyes just now. Eighty percent of them put stimulating soul-swallowing beasts such as bloody cordata into these foods.
Chu Tian saw all this and did not make it public. He took this opportunity to take revenge.
The two of them had their own ulterior motives, and entered the cave one by one. The housekeeper put all his mind on the wheelbarrow. Just as Chu Tian guessed, this time he put three bloody cordata in it. In order to prevent Chu Tian from noticed it, he followed in.
We followed the butler's plan and quietly threw down the food containing bloody cordata.
Chu Tian looked silently, calmly on the surface, quietly opened the jade bottle containing bloody cordata powder behind him, and applied the powder to his index finger. The true energy in his body was rapidly moving, quickly gathering on his arm, then transmitted from his arm to his palm, and finally gathering on the point of his index finger.
