Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Chapter 18 The theory of marriage, attacked

Lanzhou, Wild Wolf Ridge.

Yelang Ridge is a mountain ridge more than 300 miles north of Biyun Mountain. It is named because of the gathering of wolves in it.

On this day, Zhou Chun, who was originally an assistant teacher of the Mu family in Biyun Mountain, came to this mountain with several monks of the Mu family riding the [Black Scale Horse].

Their reason for coming this time was very simple. A monk from the Mu family found a pair of wolf cubs giving birth in the mountains, and planned to snatch a few wolf cubs to domesticate them as spiritual pets.

The reason for calling Zhou Chun to accompany him is to prevent any abnormal reaction of the wolf cub after leaving the den, and he can deal with it in time.

To put it bluntly, he was invited to come over to be the wolf cub's nanny.

For this reason, he had prepaid ten spirit coins in advance as an errand fee.

At this time, a group of five people rode three [Black Scale Horses] and came to a stop at the foot of a mountain peak. The leading middle-aged man from the Mu family said:
"The wolf's den is on the mountain more than ten miles away in front. The [Black Scale Horse] was too noisy in the past, and I'm afraid it would startle those beasts. Zhou Daoyou and Ziying are here to watch the [Black Scale Horse], after we get it , and then send a signal to inform you to go over."

When Zhou Chun heard the words, he was naturally happy and relaxed, and immediately responded: "Then Zhou will wish Fellow Daoist Mu a victory."

Then they dismounted together and separated.

After the middle-aged man from the Mu family left with two fellow monks, Zhou Chun and Mu Ziying casually threw some raw meat to feed the three [Black Scaled Horses], and chatted casually.

While chatting like this, Mu Ziying suddenly said: "Fellow Daoist Zhou, I heard that several young monks from your Zhou family have recently married several immortal cultivators from Lanzhou. Don't you have any thoughts on this?"

Zhou Chun, who heard her words, was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but look at her in surprise, never expecting that she would ask such a personal question.

The relationship between the two should not reach the point of talking about such a thing.

Seeing that he just looked at her in surprise and didn't answer, Mu Ziying also realized something, she couldn't help lowering her head slightly, and said in a low voice: "If you think it's inconvenient for Zhou Daoyou to answer, then just pretend that Ziying didn't ask."

Seeing this, Zhou Chun immediately shook his head, and said in a muffled voice, "Mr. Zhou doesn't know why you would suddenly ask such a question, Fellow Daoist Mu, but Mr. Zhou really has never thought of looking for a pair of monks."

God is pitiful, after time travelling, he managed to get rid of the matter of urging him to get married, so how could he still have such thoughts.

Isn't it good for a person to be free?

Even if he really wanted to get married in the future, he would have to wait until he had had enough of being alone and lonely, before thinking about finding a companion.

After Mu Ziying listened to his answer, she immediately nodded and said, "Ziying understands, thank you Zhou Daoyou for the honesty."

Then he bowed his head and fell silent, as if thinking about something.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun couldn't help muttering in his heart.

If he hadn't come to his senses before, after what Mu Ziying said, Zhou Chun seemed to understand why she made such a sudden move today.

Because Zhou Chun had already remembered at this time, among the people who recently married into other families, there happened to be two brothers and sisters who were sent to teach assistants in other families just like himself more than a year ago.

Recalling that after he came to the Mu family, the Mu family had always arranged for Mu Ziying, a beautiful girl, to be his contact person and attend his beast control class, everything seemed clear.

"So she was also urged to marry by the family, and that's why she had a showdown with me today?"

Thinking of this, Zhou Chun couldn't help expressing deep sympathy for Mu Ziying.

He understands the pressure of his family to urge marriage. Even the highly educated people in his previous life couldn't bear the pressure and compromise, let alone this conservative and feudal world.

If Mu Ziying's aptitude is excellent, the Mu family will definitely not be in a hurry to marry such a female cultivator who may build a foundation in the future.

But according to Zhou Chun's knowledge, Mu Ziying's spiritual root aptitude is actually low-grade, and now she is 19 years old, and she is only at the fourth level of Qi refining stage.

This means that she will not have many chances to succeed in foundation building in the future.

If that's the case, the elders of Mu's family will definitely want to take advantage of her young and beautiful appearance to find a good marriage for her.

It's just sympathy, Zhou Chun obviously doesn't have the noble sentiment of "sacrificing oneself to save others".

So at this moment, after staring at the girl's slim figure for a few moments, he shook his head slightly, and then bowed his head and counted the ants.

Just when the two of them were thinking about their own things and were silent, suddenly a fireball flew into the air and exploded.

This is a pre-agreed signal, but this signal appears too soon, right?
Zhou Chun felt something was wrong, so he didn't rush to meet up immediately, but raised his hand first, and let the "red-billed sparrow" that he had been raising all the time go over to check the situation.

After a while passed like this, the "Red-billed Sparrow" flew back and chatted with Zhou Chun about the investigation information.

After Zhou Chun heard the investigation results of "Red-billed Sparrow", his complexion changed immediately, and he couldn't help blurting out: "No, Fellow Daoist Mu and the others are in trouble, that's a signal for help!"

When Mu Ziying heard his words, her expression changed suddenly, and she said anxiously: "Then what should I do? Fellow Daoist Zhou, do you know who the enemy they encountered is?"

"The enemy is also a cultivator, most likely a casual cultivator who ventured into the mountains. There are as many as six or seven of them."

While talking about the situation, Zhou Chun frowned, as if some decision was difficult to make.

And when Mu Ziying heard that the enemies were immortal cultivators, and the number of them was double that of the Mu family monks who entered the mountain, her face turned pale and she didn't know what to do.

After a while passed like this, Zhou Chun suddenly made up his mind, raised his head and said to Mu Ziying, "Well, fellow daoist Mu, please take care of [Black Scaled Horse] and don't move around here. Zhou goes over to see the specific situation. It would be the best if you can meet Fellow Daoist Mu and the others to leave, but if not, Zhou will also see who the enemy is!"

"Then it will be troublesome fellow daoist Zhou, and you, fellow daoist, should be more careful."

Mu Ziying looked at Zhou Chun with worried eyes, and knew that this was the best way.

She is only at the fourth level of the Qi refining stage, so it is impossible for her to be of any help in this kind of matter.

And Zhou Chun is a distinguished guest of the Mu family, and the Mu family has the responsibility to protect him, so how could it be possible to expect Zhou Chun to sacrifice his life to save others.

Now that Zhou Chun offered to help, she and the Mu family are both grateful.

After explaining to Mu Ziying in this way, Zhou Chun immediately rushed towards the battlefield.

Half a quarter of an hour later, he climbed up a big tree and got a condescending view of the situation on the battlefield.

On the battlefield, the situation is very bad for the three members of the Mu family.

The enemies the three of them faced did not seem to be ordinary casual cultivators. Not only did each of them have a Qi-refining period of seven or eight levels, but they also had excellent magic weapons in their hands, and some even domesticated spiritual pets.

At this time, the three members of the Mu family were besieged by enemies many times their own. Even if they tried their best to resist, they were not opponents at all.

"Who on earth are you guys? Do you know that we are monks from the Mu family in Biyun Mountain? You hurt me today for no reason, aren't you afraid of revenge from my Mu family?"

The roar came from the mouth of the middle-aged man in the Mu family. He glared at the enemy facing him with anger and reluctance, and he didn't understand what these people were doing.

The two parties clearly have no enmity or enmity, they don't know each other, and there is no conflict of interest, why should they be killed as soon as they meet?
However, those enemies who heard his roar turned a deaf ear and didn't answer him at all. They just sneered, or looked at him disdainfully, showing the eyes of a dead man.

In the distance, after Zhou Chun saw this situation, his heart sank, knowing that it was useless to rescue the three members of the Mu family.

He suspected that those people were not ordinary rogue cultivators, they might be members of a rogue cultivator group or the Xiuxian family, who possessed the strength not to fear the Mu family.

And for no reason, they killed the members of the Mu family, either because they had enmity with the Mu family, or because there was some treasure in Yelangling, they were worried that the news would be leaked and wanted to silence them.

No matter which one it is, if Zhou Chun wants to save people, he will definitely attract these people's frantic pursuit.

So he quickly got down from the treetops, ready to go back and tell Mu Ziying to leave quickly.

But just as Zhou Chun was descending from the tree, a hawk hovering in the sky suddenly stared at him, and then opened its mouth to let out a sharp roar.

"No, they still have accomplices outside!"

On the battlefield, after hearing the howling of the hawk, a cultivator's complexion changed immediately, and he looked at the hawk in the sky with horror and anger, then followed the hawk's guidance to look in Zhou Chun's direction and yelled.

At the same time, Zhou Chun's complexion changed wildly.

He glanced at the falcon in the sky with an ugly expression, but he didn't expect that he, an immortal cultivator of the beast family, would be pecked in the eye by the eagle today.

"Sure enough, there are many capable people and strange people in the world. What happened today must be taken as a warning in the future!"

Sighing in his heart, Zhou Chunren rushed to where Mu Ziying was at the fastest speed.

When he got to the place, without waiting for Mu Ziying to ask about the situation, he jumped on the horse of [Black Scaled Horse], and shouted: "Run away, the enemy is coming."

After speaking, he rode out and rushed out.

Seeing this, even though Mu Ziying had many doubts in her heart, she could only get on her horse and run away together.

Two people and three horses galloped along the way without daring to stop.

Even in order to speed up the horse, Zhou Chun and the two even performed the "lightness technique" to bless [Black Scale Horse].

If it weren't for the "Wind Control Technique" not being able to bless others, they would have to use it even.

As for the enemies who were chasing Zhou Chun, after seeing their backs riding the [Black Scaled Horse] away, their expressions suddenly became very ugly.

He looked at the backs of the two with an ugly expression and hesitated for a while, then suddenly gritted his teeth and shouted: "You don't even want to run away!"

Before he finished speaking, he reached out and patted the storage bag on his waist, took out a magic weapon shaped like a bamboo leaf and threw it in front of him.

Under the urging of mana, the magic weapon instantly became as big as a skateboard, emitting a hazy white light.

Then he jumped onto the enlarged bamboo leaf magic weapon, and directly made the magic weapon fly towards Zhou Chun and the two of them.

Flying artifact!

It turned out to be a flying weapon!
On the back of [Black Scaled Horse], Zhou Chun was also shocked and extremely surprised when he saw the enemy flying behind him with the imperial envoy's magic weapon.

Among the monks in the Qi refining period, it is rare to see a monk with a flying magic weapon.

One is because the refining of the flying magic weapon itself is relatively difficult, and there are high requirements for materials and refining skills; the second is because this kind of magic weapon consumes too much mana for the monks in the Qi refining period. It doesn't make much sense.

After all, a monk in the Qi refining period is away from home, and he can save a little mana, so how could he be willing to use the flying magic weapon to fly on the road.

Now, in order to chase them down and silence them, the enemy even took out the flying magic weapon, which made Zhou Chun complain endlessly.

Although the galloping speed of [Black Scale Horse] is fast, it is obviously not enough compared to the flying magic weapon.

With an ugly expression on his face, he frequently turned his head to look at the approaching enemy, and finally made up his mind and shouted at Mu Ziying: "Mu Daoyou, the thieves are coming in a menacing way, let's run separately, and live and die in peace!"

After speaking, he took the initiative to hit the horse and turned around, and ran away in two ways with Mu Ziying.
