While Jun Wuxie and Yuan Ji were chatting, Yuan Feng was talking with his two uncles in a room in the inner courtyard of the Yuan family.
"Feng'er, are you sure that's the blood-maned lion dog beast?"
Yuan Feng's two uncles, Yuan Shao and Yuan Zhuo, both looked at him in shock.
Earlier, when Yuan Feng came back and talked about his encounter in Liuyun Forest, he only said that he was attacked by an ancient beast, but did not say what kind of ancient beast it was.
"Second uncle, third uncle, blood-maned lions, dogs and beasts. There are records of their portraits in the anecdotal records of various beasts. How could my nephew admit that they were wrong?"
Yuan Feng answered in the affirmative, saying that it was absolutely impossible for him to admit his mistake, that it was the blood-maned lion dog beast.
"This is strange..." Yuan Shao was shocked, with a blazing light in his eyes, and said: "The blood-maned lion dog beast is a special ancient beast that grows and transforms. It is said that it can transform into the bloodline of a sub-divine beast. level. The most important thing is that the initial bloodline level of the blood-maned lion dog beast is not high, and it takes time to grow, which means that it is relatively easy to catch. When the level is not high, the strength will not be too strong! But it How come it appears in the outskirts of Liuyun Forest?"
"My nephew also feels strange about this matter."
Yuan Feng said that he and his tribe were just passing by the outskirts of Liuyun Forest when they accidentally saw the blood-maned lion and dog beast hunting for food, so he secretly followed its footsteps.
"Well, Liuyun Forest has indeed been a little unusual recently." Yuan Zhuo stroked his green beard and said: "Recently, I heard from those who went to the Liuyun Forest hunting group to say that there are often powerful ancient beasts deep in the Liuyun Mountains. Roaring. That kind of sound was rarely heard before, but it is very frequent during this period. Moreover, the number of ancient beasts and raptors near the outer areas of the forest has also increased significantly. It is suspected that there are a large number of ancient beasts and raptors that originally lived near the center of the forest. Away from the habitat and into the outer zone.”
"Analysis based on these circumstances, it seems that something may have really happened in the deepest part of the Hengduan Mountains and Liuyun Forest. However, those depths are too dangerous. Even in our realm, it will be very dangerous to go deep!"
Yuan Shao said, pondered for a moment, then looked at Yuan Feng and said: "Where is the body of the blood-maned lion and dog beast? Did it fall into the hands of Mr. Jun?"
"No, if I tell you this, your second uncle and third uncle may find it unbelievable."
Yuan Feng smiled and said: "He did not kill the blood-maned lion dog beast, but let it go."
"What?"
Yuan Shao and Yuan Zhuo's pupils both shrank, and they looked at each other with shocked expressions.
"He actually let the blood-maned lion dog beast go? Doesn't he recognize the blood-maned lion dog beast and the value of the blood-maned lion dog beast?"
They cannot understand that the blood-maned lion beast is of immeasurable value.
Even if the adult blood-maned lion beast cannot be tamed and can only be killed, its skin, blood, and the beast core where the energy is condensed after death are still priceless things.
This is an amazing fortune.
That Mr. Jun actually gave up right before his eyes?
"Isn't it because he was not sure about killing the blood-maned lion dog beast? What was the situation at that time? How did he fight off the blood-maned lion dog beast when he rescued you?"
"In an understatement, he knocked the blood-maned lion dog beast away with a slap of his hand. He fell to the ground for a long time before he got up. Judging from the situation at the time, that palm should have knocked the blood-maned lion dog beast out. If he really wanted to He wanted to kill him, but he did a last-ditch attack at that time, but he didn’t, he just stood there and waited for the dizziness of the blood-maned lion dog beast to disappear.”
"This gentleman is not simple. He knocked out the blood-maned lion dog beast with a single palm of his hand but did not injure him. This shows that his control of power is superb, and he is many times stronger than the blood-maned lion dog beast. Otherwise, he would never have been able to do it. To such an extent.”
Yuan Feng nodded, "He is indeed extraordinary. I don't know what rank he is in the realm of saints. It's a pity. At that time, I wanted to ask him to kill the blood-maned lion dog beast, but he refused to agree. Otherwise, I could capture the blood-maned lion alive. The cub of the dog beast. If our Yuan family has a little blood-maned lion dog beast and raises it secretly, who can compete with my Yuan family in the future? The blood-maned lion dog beast can grow into a holy king or even a great saint. An ancient beast above the realm!"
"And there are cubs?"
Yuan Shao and Yuan Zhuo's eyes were so intense that their breathing became rapid.
What would it mean to the family if they could have a blood-maned lion dog beast?
That means that the status of the family can continue to rise in the future with the help of blood-maned lions and beasts. Controlling the entire Liuyun City is just the beginning. The family is destined to be glorious and prosperous!
"It's a pity that the blood-maned lion dog beast will inevitably take the cub away after this incident. If we want to find its traces in the vast Liuyun Forest, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack, but we can't give up like this! "
Yuan Shao and Yuan Zhuo looked thoughtful.
Yuan Feng said lightly: "Second uncle and third uncle, according to my nephew's observation, the blood-maned lion and dog beasts are very intelligent. When Brother Jun let them go, there was a very humane emotion in his eyes. That was A feeling of gratitude. Generally speaking, animals are different from humans in that their thoughts are always relatively pure..."
Hearing Yuan Feng say this, Yuan Shao and Yuan Zhuo's eyes suddenly flashed with light.
"Feng'er is right!"
Smiles gradually appeared on their faces. They looked at Yuan Feng and suddenly laughed twice. They patted his shoulders and said with admiration: "As expected of Feng'er, he has deep meaning in everything he does. We, the successors of the Yuan family, There’s someone there, hahaha!”
…
The Yuan family's dinner was very rich, with a total of forty-eight dishes, a variety of delicacies from mountains and seas, the table was filled, and the wine was very mellow.
At the table, Yuan Ji, Yuan Shao, Yuan Zhuo, Yuan Feng, and other senior members of the Yuan family were very enthusiastic. They all stood up and toasted, thanking him for saving Yuan Feng's life.
The atmosphere was lively and harmonious, with each other chatting without any sense of alienation.
After three rounds of drinking, the night was already very deep.
Everyone present here has a little bit of drunkenness on their faces, even Jun Wuxie looks a little tipsy.
Jingya drank less. Except for the round of wine that everyone in the Yuan family started to offer her, Jun Wuxie blocked the rest of the wine for her.
After the dinner, Yuan Ji, Yuan Shao, Yuan Zhuo, Yuan Feng and others personally sent Jun Wuxie and Jingya to a quiet and elegant courtyard.
"Mr. Jun, please don't mind if the humble residence is simple. Mr. Jun and Miss Jingya have been staying in the humble residence these days, quietly waiting for news."
They sent Jun Wuxie and Jingya to the entrance of the courtyard, stopped, and said with a smile: "It's late at night, Mr. Jun and Miss Jingya, please rest early, and we won't disturb you. If necessary, just Call and a maid will come to serve you."
Jun Wuxie smiled and nodded, walked into the small courtyard side by side with Jingya, opened the door and entered the house.
Yuan Ji and others stood quietly at the entrance of the courtyard for a moment before turning and leaving.
Not long after, they arrived at Yuan Ji's study. The moment they closed the door, the smile on Yuan Ji's face disappeared.
Yuan Ji sat down behind the desk in the study, with no hint of drunkenness on his face.
He took out a medicine bottle from Najie, poured out a few brown pills, threw them to Yuan Shao, Yuan Zhuo, Yuan Feng and others, and said: "Take it."
Several people caught the pills and put them in their mouths.
Yuan Shao said: "This Hua Gong Powder is a strange medicine. It is very precious and very difficult to obtain. Wouldn't it be too wasteful to use it on him?"
"Be careful with your ten-thousand-year ship. No matter how precious the Hua Gong Powder is, it is not as valuable as the lives of the senior members of our direct lineage of the Yuan family. This boy is not simple. I smell a dangerous aura in him. I don't want anything to go wrong!" Yuan Ji's lips twitched. With a smile on his face, he said, "If we achieve our goal, what we will get is even a hundred times a thousand times the amount of Hua Gong Powder. It is a business that only makes money but does not lose money. What should we feel bad about?" "
"Brother is right. Everything must be done safely. We, a small family, are walking on thin ice all the way. We must be cautious at all times. We must not be careless and capsize. We cannot afford such a price."
Yuan Zhuo agreed very much with Yuan Ji's statement.
"How's it going? Have you informed Yuan Ye?"
Yuan Ji closed his eyes slightly and rested his mind.
"The message has been sent out using the magic talisman. It has been several hours. I think Yuan Ye should have received the talisman letter. He may be on his way back at this time."
Yuan Ji closed his eyes and sat on the chair behind the desk, "Well, with Yuan Ye here, it would be safer. Otherwise, it would be easy to kill him, but it is not easy to make him obedient. Yuan Ye's telepathy can just do that." It comes in handy. That guy said he was a casual cultivator, but we can't believe it. There might be a sect behind him. If Yuan Ye comes back and he comes forward, even if something goes wrong, at least he will have a backer like Qingyun Dongtian."
"Well, what we have to do now is to wait. When the medicine takes effect, the boy will be unable to use his true energy, and he will be a turtle in the jar. You tell the powerful people hiding in secret to watch the magic circle carefully and make sure there are no mistakes."
"yes!"
…
In the Yuan family's mansion, in the quiet and elegant courtyard room.
Jun Wuxie and Jingya were sitting at the round table in the room.
At this time, a little sweat broke out on Jingya's face.
Her crystal forehead, temples, cheeks with skin as smooth as gelatin, and both sides of her delicate nose were all covered with sweat.
"This Hua Gong Powder is really powerful. Although it is only a low-grade Saint-level weapon, once you are in the Saint-King realm, once you are poisoned by this poison, your true energy will slowly dissipate, making it difficult to condense, and it will take a long time to recover."
"Aunt Jing, are you blaming me? You clearly said that there was Hua Gong Powder in the wine, but I still drank it and asked you to drink it too."
"How can Aunt Jing blame you for saying something stupid?" Jingya smiled and shook her head, elegantly smoothing a strand of hair on her cheek, with gentle eyes, "As long as it is what you mean, Aunt Jing will listen. It’s yours, whatever it is.”
"Aunt Jing, do you just believe me?"
Jun Wuxie was a little touched. Aunt Jing didn't ask anything, didn't say anything, and just followed his wishes without any complaints. Even if it was something that seemed very dangerous, even if it might put her in an extremely dangerous situation.
Jingya smiled lightly, held Jun Wuxie's hand, and looked at him tenderly, "Aunt Jing said, I will listen to you in everything. Sometimes, Aunt Jing's trust in you even exceeds her trust in herself. Even if it is something that Aunt Jing thinks is impossible, Aunt Jing believes you can do it."
"Thank you, Aunt Jing."
Jun Wuxie looked at the elegant and beautiful woman in front of him.
She was originally a great master in the Holy Emperor realm, and she was reincarnated by Qingtian. She originally needed to compete with the newly born Heavenly Dao for time, but in order to save him, she was willing to pay the price of having her origin broken, and her realm fell below the Holy realm.
"Don't say thank you in the future. Aunt Jing will be dependent on you for a long time in the future and needs your protection to survive."
Jun Wuxie saw a flash of sadness in her eyes, and he immediately understood what she was thinking.
She must have felt that she was dragging him down, and immediately said: "In the lower world, Aunt Jing helped me at all costs. Now it's my turn to protect Aunt Jing. We help each other and rely on each other. I don't want Aunt Jing to have any feelings in her heart." A little bit of burden.”
Jingya was slightly startled when she heard what he said, and then she showed a knowing smile and said: "Okay, Aunt Jing will listen to you, so from now on, Aunt Jing will be your burden with peace of mind."
"Don't say the word burden, because when I was in the lower realm, if I had said that, I would have been considered a burden to Aunt Jing, otherwise Aunt Jing wouldn't have..."
"Stop it. Let's never mention the word burden again."
Jingya interrupted him because she also felt that whenever he noticed that she was mentally burdened, he would feel guilty because of what happened in the lower world.
She didn't want this, she didn't want him to blame himself in guilt.
Jun Wuxie nodded, took his hand out of hers, and held her soft, boneless palm with his backhand. The life stars in his body were rotating, generating a powerful devouring power, and quickly sucked in the toxins from her body. within one’s own body.
No matter how magical these poisons are, they can't withstand the grinding wheel of the life star.
In a moment, the toxins in the Hua Gong Powder were ground and purified by the Wheel of the World.
Jingya looked at him nervously until she was sure that he was not feeling any discomfort, then she felt relieved and said: "Little guy, your ability is really amazing to Aunt Jing. When you were in the lower world, you were able to resist the darkest curse. Now, And being able to ignore this kind of Hua Gong Powder Qi that looks like poison but is not really poison..."
"I have rough skin and thick flesh, and I am immune to all poisons."
When Jingya heard this, she took out the hand he was holding, slapped the back of his hand, and said angrily: "You're such a mouthful."
Jun Wuxie smiled, turned to look at the door of the room, and said: "They must be waiting for the medicinal energy of Hua Gong Powder to take effect in our bodies. The Yuan family is very cautious in doing things, and they have the realm of saints. A person with strong foundation still needs to use Hua Gong Powder, and even has a sealing array arranged in this courtyard."
"They are indeed very cautious in doing things. That is to say, if they met you, if they were other monks in the realm of saints, they would definitely be in a desperate situation." When Jingya said this, a trace of curiosity appeared on her face, "Are you Didn't you already guess that Yuan Feng had bad intentions before entering this mansion?"
"Um."
"When did you start to doubt him?"
"I can't say it was suspicion, but I knew from the beginning that he was a cruel, ruthless and unjust person."
Jun Wuxie said that when he left Liuyun Forest, he could see Yuan Feng's character.
That should be the detail that Yuan Feng missed due to his usual habits.
At that time, Yuan Feng left directly without even looking at the clan members who died in Liuyun Forest.
Although at that time, Jun Wuxie didn't know that he was a member of his tribe, but even if he was just a companion, it wouldn't be like this. He had to bury the body after all.
Leaving corpses like this in the forest and allowing wild beasts to gnaw on their bones, one can imagine how indifferent Yuan Feng was.
How could such a cold-hearted person feel grateful for his life-saving grace?
Moreover, he also let go of the blood-maned lion dog beast that Yuan Feng had been trying to get.
grateful? If it doesn't exist, then the calculation is logical.
"Since you knew he wanted to plot against you from the beginning, why did you follow him to Yuan's house? Can't you just kill him in Liuyun Forest?"
"I want to understand this world. We will stay in the Qingzhou border in the east for a while and start a new journey here. I need to understand the strength of the forces here, so I want to come and see this small town on the Qingzhou border. How powerful are the family members? In this way, we can also deduce the approximate level of forces that are stronger than them."
"I see……"
Jingya couldn't help but sigh, Jun Wuxie was still Jun Wuxie after all, she guessed that Yuan Feng had already thought of all this when he asked for help.
What's ridiculous is that Yuan Feng guided him step by step when talking to him, trying to lure him to the family and plot against him.
Yuan Feng wanted to be a hunter, but he didn't know that he was actually the targeted prey from the beginning.
