Eternal Beast Taming Family

Chapter 126 Taking Wives and Concubines

Inside the flower hall, Tang Cheng and his companion waited for about fifteen minutes.

Just then, someone arrived. Sun Chunchen, with his hands behind his back, entered without any formalities. Before Tang Cheng and the other man could stand up to greet him, he asked:

"Which family are you from? What brings you here?"

The man beside Tang Cheng maintained his composure, responding with a gentle smile:

"I am Tang Liangde from the Tang family of Xuanying Prefecture. I hope you will forgive my sudden intrusion."

Sun Chunchen glanced at him sideways and said lazily, "Now that you've met the people, let's all go home and rest."

Seeing that Sun Chunchen had no intention of continuing the conversation, Tang Liangde quickly spoke up, "No, sir, you should know why I'm here. Why are you so eager to refuse? If you wish, my Tang family will certainly treat you as an honored guest."

Sun Chunchen stopped in his tracks, turned around, and looked at Tang Liangde with a regretful gaze.

"Of course I know why you've come. It's a pity that the only key to Medicine King Valley has already been taken away by the ancestor of the Huo family, the local landowners."

If you really want them, hurry up and set off now; you might be able to find them along the way.

Tang Liangde's face flashed with disappointment at being beaten to it. "Sir, you are joking. The main branch of the Huo family can't even find the big shots sent by Qianling Prefecture, let alone our Tang family."

"But why must you stay in this small place, sir? If you would be willing to come to our Tang family's territory, we will treat you with the highest honors as a guest."

Sun Chunchen waved his hand, "I'm too old to go too far, but if you really want the key, there is a way."

I have a jade pendant here that can pinpoint the location of the key, but whether you can snatch it back depends on the strength of your Tang family.

As he spoke, he spread his right palm at his side, and a pure white jade pendant floated quietly in his palm. In the center of the jade pendant, two small dots, one blue and one red, were shining brightly at a distance.

Tang Liangde's gaze fell on the jade pendant, a hint of suspicion in his eyes. But they seemed to have no other choice at the moment, so he condensed his spiritual power into an invisible tentacle and took the jade pendant back into his hand.

"Thank you for your guidance, sir. Whether it succeeds or not, our Tang family will always remember your kindness."

"Don't thank me. Just don't blame me for the people your Tang family has contributed along the way."

Sun Chunchen shook his head, turned and walked out of the flower hall, showing no intention of getting to know the two of them better.

With the host family gone, Tang Cheng and his companion naturally couldn't stay any longer and followed the steward out of Yaoxintang.

After leaving the house, Tang Cheng sighed inwardly. In the flower hall, Sun Chunchen ignored him completely, and the little bit of friendship that had just been established was now completely gone.

Meanwhile, Tang Liangde, standing beside him, stared intently at the jade pendant in his hand, and said with a smile,

"Xiao Cheng, now you have a reason to avenge yourself."

……

Qixia Mountain.

With the addition of Chu Jingyu, or more precisely, the addition of the "Golden Armored Jade-Eyed Beast" and the "White-Browed Mountain Eagle," the renovation work on the back mountain has been changing dramatically, changing almost every day.

Similar to the front of Qixia Mountain, the back of Qixia Mountain has also been transformed into a terraced landscape, with vast expanses of spiritual herbs from the "Illusory Mist Spirit Plain" planted on the terraced plains.

A light mist enveloped most of the back mountain area, and the 'jellyfish' with colorful halos around their bodies did not leave the misty area, but floated quietly in this small area.

They seem to be quite easygoing and don't seem to feel restricted.

Of course, the reason why the spiritual herbs were able to reproduce in such a short time was largely due to the combined efforts of the three source beasts, namely the "Moon-Worshipping Rabbit," the "Green Leaf Giant Insect," and the "Ginseng Baby," as well as the large amount of source spirit stones poured into the soil.

Although at first glance, a large area of ​​the back mountain is covered with lush green spiritual herbs, upon closer inspection, one will find that the distance between each herb is quite far, making them rather sparse.

The Chu family has worked very hard on the development of the back mountain, but they still can't spread these spiritual herbs so quickly.

One of the gaps between the spirit fields has been transformed into a pool, where the surface of the water radiates a chilling aura, and inside bloom "ice lotus" and "ice crystal flowers" that resemble crystals.

At the foot of the mountain, in the mountain stream, three large snakes are often seen coiled up. Their range now extends to the mountain streams of Qixia Mountain and another nearby mountain.

The three giant snakes were simply too large to fly, and there were many humans living in the area, so their range of movement was restricted.

The villagers in the front mountain were not idle either. Since the wild beasts were cleared out, they were assigned tasks.

The Chu family bought many medicinal herbs and seeds of spiritual medicine from the town and gave them to the villagers to plant in the fields.

The original farmland was naturally unsuitable, and that's when the "cattle herding" originally assigned to the villagers came in handy.

They overturned the original farmland, rebuilt the ridges, and scattered large amounts of "Source Stone" fragments into the fields.

Centered on Qixia Mountain, the highway was built as the main axis, and the idle fields on both sides were gradually reclaimed.

Any gentle slopes or earthen mounds encountered were quickly leveled by the beasts. The villagers living here had never seen such fertile and flat fields.

While Chu Mu was in the ancestral hall, he could see that the family's fortune was increasing steadily every day. Thus, the family was finally able to enter a period of steady development.

In the book space, Chu Mu lay on a rocking chair. Although he was still far from the ancestral hall, there was hope for the future.

These peaceful days did not last long. On February 3, news came from the town.

"The county magistrate wants to take a wife and concubine? And he wants a woman from a noble family with spiritual cultivation." Chu Jingyu frowned involuntarily after reading the letter delivered by the gatekeeper.

Chu Qinhui's expression immediately tensed up. "What does the county magistrate taking a wife and concubine have to do with us? We don't have any women of marriageable age in our family."

Chu Jingyu's expression was unusually calm. "The letter says that all towns under the jurisdiction of Paper Hawk County, families of rank, must offer at least one woman with spiritual awakening to participate in this selection."

The meaning is very simple: even if we don't have a child of the right age in our family, we still have to create one.

"No, no, Xiaohan absolutely not." Chu Qinhui immediately shook his head, speaking with extreme resistance.

Chu Jingyu gave Chu Qinhui a disdainful look. "Who said Xiao Han was going? Even if you're willing, I'm not. There are so many people in our village, surely there are some who are willing to climb the social ladder and become a phoenix. Pick one, awaken her spirit, form a contract with a source beast, and send her to the county town."

Hearing his father say this, Chu Qinhui immediately calmed down. He smiled awkwardly, "But didn't it say that aristocratic families should activate the Spirit Maiden skill?"
