Eternal Beast Taming Family

Three days later, in the morning.

The Chu family members and all the servants who came with Chu Shengfan gathered at the square in front of the Chu family mansion.

After some discussion, it was decided that Chu Shengfan's parents would attend Chu Shengfan's apprenticeship ceremony.

"When you go, be sure to follow the rules at all times, and don't let Xiao Fan make a fool of himself."

Faced with his father's instructions, Chu Qinhui could only nod and smile in agreement.

"After the ceremony, hurry back. There are too many things to do at home; I, an old man, can't take care of everything by myself."

"Okay, we understand, Father."

Being lectured by his father like a minor in front of so many outsiders made Chu Qinhui feel a little embarrassed, and he just wanted to end the lecture as soon as possible.

Wu Yuan, standing to the side, spoke up, "Patriarch Chu, rest assured, I will personally escort them back. There's no need to worry about their safety."

Chu Jingyu softened his expression, cupped his hands in a gesture of respect to Wu Yuan, and said, "Then I'll leave it to you, senior."

Wu Yuan responded with a cupped-hand salute.

Chu Jingyu looked at Chu Shengfan again, his eyes filled with emotion.

"Xiao Fan, once you're at the academy, focus on your studies and don't worry about things at home. Your family will send you money regularly every month."

If you lack anything or are dissatisfied with anything, do not bear it alone; you should tell your family.

Only reporting good news and not bad news will only make your family worry more, you know?

Chu Shengfan nodded emphatically. "I understand, Grandpa. Take good care of yourself at home. Leave the less important matters at home to others."

"Don't worry about things at home, go on, go on."

Chu Jingyu patted Chu Shengfan on the shoulder, then pushed him slightly towards the palace behind him.

A few minutes later, the palace, accompanied by dozens of servants, slowly flew from the ground into the air, as a faint light flashed in the void in front of the palace.

A wide rift gradually formed, and under the watchful eyes of the Chu family and their servants, the palace and its entourage slowly disappeared into the spatial rift.

Chu Jingyu stood there for a long time before letting the others disperse and go about their own business.

However, when he saw Chu Shenghan and Xu Yinyue beside her, he suddenly realized something. "Xiaohan, did you see Xiaoyuan today?"

Chu Shenghan looked around with her bright eyes, then shook her head. "I haven't seen him since this morning."

"That brat! His elder brother is leaving home today and he didn't even come to see him off. He's getting more and more ill-mannered."

With a disgruntled murmur, Chu Jingyu turned to the head steward beside him and said, "Go quickly and have the servants find Young Master Yuan and bring him to my courtyard to see me."

Zhang Heng received the order and hurried off to summon his servants to give further instructions. However, he had only taken a few steps when Chu Jingyu called out to him with a strange expression.

"No, there's no need to go. I already know where that little guy went."

Zhang Heng immediately stopped and bowed slightly to Chu Jingyu.

Only Chu Shenghan and Xu Yinyue looked at Chu Jingyu with curiosity. Chu Shenghan asked directly, "Grandpa, where did my little brother go?"

Chu Jingyu clenched his fist. "That brat sneaked into the palace without a word."

"what?"

Chu Shenghan and Xu Yinyue were stunned by their grandfather's answer.

"Do my brother and the others know?"

Meanwhile, inside the palace through the spatial passage, Chu Shengfan, Chu Qinhui, and Jiang Nian's eyes were fixed on Chu Shengyuan, who was sitting somewhat uneasily in his seat.

"How did you get up here?" Jiang Nian asked first, his face contorted with rage.

Chu Shengyuan smiled obsequiously, "I sneaked up here before you all came up."

"Sneaked up here?" Chu Shengfan looked puzzled, then glanced at Su Yi behind him.

Su Yi quickly knelt down and explained, "This morning, the young master said he was here to fetch some things for you, Young Master, but who knew he would stay here and not come down."

Chu Shengfan finally understood how Chu Shengyuan had gotten up there, and he waved for Su Yi to stand up.

Then his gaze turned to Chu Shengyuan, somewhat helplessly. He couldn't bear to hit him, nor could he bear to scold him.

"If you wanted to come with me, why didn't you just tell me? Why did you have to sneak up like this? What will Grandpa worry about if he can't find you? Have you thought about that?"

That being said, it's fortunate that Chu Zu gave him the "Ten Thousand Mile Book," preventing his grandfather from discovering Xiao Yuan's disappearance and having to search for him all over town.

Hearing his brother's words, Chu Shengyuan walked around the table and whispered in his ear,

"Don't worry, I've already spoken to Grandfather Chu in advance. I told him that he would inform Grandfather of my whereabouts after I leave the palace."

Chu Shengfan was truly shocked. This kid had actually alarmed Chu Zu, and Chu Zu was actually willing to cover for him.

After saying this, Chu Shengyuan sat back down at the table. "I know that if I had said it beforehand, my grandfather would definitely not have agreed. He wouldn't let the two of us be in the same place."

So I have to do it secretly now.

Chu Shengfan instantly understood his meaning in not letting the two of them be together, as they were the only two male descendants of the third generation.

Chu Jingyu would not allow them to be in the same place, so that if one of them were to have an accident, the other would still be able to survive, and they would not be implicated in each other's dangers.

Chu Shengfan largely agreed with his grandfather's idea, so his expression became serious.

"You know what Grandpa means, yet you still do this. Aren't you just making him worry unnecessarily?"

Knowing he was in the wrong, Chu Shengyuan put on a pitiful face and begged for forgiveness, "Just this once, after the ceremony, I'll obediently go back with my parents."

Please, I really want to go outside and see the world.

Faced with his only younger brother's pleading, even the precocious Chu Shengfan couldn't resist; his serious face softened involuntarily.

"Hey, you've already come all this way, what else can we do? Just follow along, but don't wander off over there, stay close to your parents, okay?"

Chu Shengyuan nodded vigorously, his face beaming with smiles, and repeatedly agreed.

Chu Qinhui rubbed his teeth, then reached out and pinched one of Chu Shengyuan's chubby cheeks.

"You brat, you've caused your brother trouble."

Chu Shengyuan pouted, his expression twisted, "No way."

Seeing that his younger brother was truly in pain, Chu Shengfan quickly pulled him to his side.

"Su Yi, arrange a room for Xiao Yuan, and also assign four high-level Spirit Rank Contract Masters to watch over him constantly. We can't allow any accidents to happen to my brother, understand?"

As Su Yi watched Chu Shengfan tenderly rubbing his younger brother's face, which had been pinched red by their father, she suddenly realized that the young master seemed to have a bit of a brother complex.

She quickly agreed, "I'll take care of it right away."
