Eternal Beast Taming Family

Chapter 278 New Boundaries

The day after Chu Shengfan and the others left, Xiao Muchu arrived with an official envoy and a jade letter announcing the family's promotion in rank.

"Now, under the jurisdiction of Qianling Prefecture, the Chu family has a member who has been promoted to the Domain Rank Master, and the family has been promoted to the ranks of the Seventh Rank Celebrities. This letter is hereby issued to entrust him with this mission."

The family's territory should have been moved elsewhere, but the original Zhiyao County had been destroyed and was no longer in name only. Relocation would be inconvenient, so the area of ​​the original Zhiyao County was designated as the current fiefdom of the Chu family.

Xiao Muchu, the former county magistrate, resumed his original post and assisted the Chu family in building a new city.

Furthermore, the core area of ​​the new city will be granted to assist the new residents in building the new city.

The high-ranking official envoy recited the information contained in the jade letter aloud before placing it back on the tray.

Then, along with the so-called core of the new city, it was handed to Chu Jingyu.

Present the messenger with a ring-shaped storage device as a "reward".

Chu Jingyu took the tray, but before he could examine the core of the new city, he asked the pale-faced middle-aged man in front of him:

"Please come into my home, sir. We have prepared some wine and food. You have come from afar, so please rest for a while."

The messenger accepted the "reward," probed inside with his divine sense, and a smile appeared on his face.

He waved his hand at Chu Jingyu's attempt to persuade him to stay, saying, "Patriarch Chu, please don't be so polite. We are in a hurry to return and report back, so it's not convenient for us to stay any longer."

Then, after bowing slightly to Chu Jingyu and Xiao Muchu, he led a team of more than a dozen full-level spirit-rank contract masters away from Qixia Mountain.

After they left, Chu Jingyu's gaze finally fell on the heart of the new city.

It looked like a pair of random, irregularly stacked yellow rhomboid minerals, emitting a faint yellow glow as if breathing.

Chu Jingyu turned his gaze to Xiao Muchu. "Lord Xiao, how should this core be used?"

Xiao Muchu smiled slightly and replied, "Bury it in the town government office, and the new city defense boundary will naturally grow out on its own."

The Chu family members' gazes fell upon the magical crystal, and they felt that the quality of this item must be extraordinary.

Chu Jingyu entrusted the task of planting this 'core' to Chu Qinhui, while he himself went to guard the ancestral hall.

He has recently made some progress in understanding the concept of "domain," so he generally doesn't participate in things unless they are particularly important.

In the town government office, Chu Qinhui carefully planted this new urban core in the garden in front of the central building, next to the lake.

The core, composed of yellow crystals, had barely touched the ground when it merged into the earth like a stream of water.

Chu Qinhui looked at the empty pit and was speechless. Xiao Muchu hadn't said anything about just throwing it on the ground.

After about ten breaths, a slight ripple emanated from the ground, followed by a very slight earthquake.

In Chu Qinhui's perception, a golden boundary membrane was slowly growing from a place far away from Qixia Town.

This growth process lasted about half an hour before the pale golden membrane finally gathered in the air above where Chu Qinhui and the others stood.

Chu Qinhui's figure floated up and passed directly through the original temporary boundary membrane of Qixia Town, and then arrived in the space between the new boundary membrane and the old boundary membrane.

In just a short while, the violent energy from outside the boundary had completely calmed down, creating an environment where ordinary people could live peacefully.

Chu Qinhui's figure never stopped, flying almost around the boundary of this new boundary membrane, discovering that its boundary grew almost along the boundaries of the four surrounding forbidden zones.

Even a small part of the original "Sunken Moon Forest" has been included.

After inspecting the area, Chu Qinhui's figure returned to the front of the town government building.

At this moment, Xiao Muchu was looking at him with a smile. Chu Qinhui would give him a gentle smile and then say:

"County Magistrate Xiao, I've discovered that the Shenyue Forest has also been included in this area. For the safety of our town's residents, we'll have to rely on you to make a trip there."

"Perfect timing, now that they've finished dealing with that, we can remove the old boundary membrane."

As they spent more time together, Chu Qinhui's awe of Xiao Muchu lessened considerably, and now he could assign him tasks without batting an eye.

Xiao Muchu smiled helplessly, "He really does hold a grudge. Fine, I'll go right now."

After speaking, his figure disappeared from the sight of the many staff members on duty at the town hall.

Chu Qinhui then looked at the other person behind him, one of the two deputy mayors, and said, "Go and arrange a team of guards to clean up the mess in Chenyue Forest."

Finally, Chu Qinhui's gaze fell on Chu Shenghan beside him. "Xiaohan, you're coming along this time too."

Unexpectedly, this would also involve her, and a hint of surprise appeared in Chu Shenghan's eyes. She nodded excitedly, "Okay, I'll go right now."

The deputy mayor, who had been assigned a task, saw that Chu Shenghan was also going along, and immediately changed the list he had already prepared in his mind, even adding himself to it.

Half an hour later, ten Spirit-level and twenty Other-level Contract Masters, a total of thirty guards, carrying the necessary tools, stepped out of the original boundary of Qixia Town and headed towards the distant "Sinking Moon Forest".

Chu Qinhui frowned with some impatience as he watched his daughter, the only woman, mingling among a group of male guards. However, he knew that if his daughter were to pursue a career in the future, this situation would be inevitable.

Nevertheless, he was already thinking about quickly selecting a group of outstanding women from the town and allocating some resources to train them so that they could serve as his daughter's exclusive guards in the future.

The idea of ​​training a personal guard for his family was something Chu Qinhui had never considered before. The guards were all shared by the entire family, and Xiao Han rarely went out, so it wasn't until now that he realized the issue of gender.

He coughed lightly, and the "Azure Wing Wolf Lord," its wings fluttering gently, appeared beside him. Then, after he trotted a few steps, dozens of "Azure Wing Wolves" appeared one after another.

Like ghosts, they silently and quietly fell far behind the departing guards.

The departing procession had no carriages or sedan chairs to ride in; each person rode a unique beast, a horse.

3. Peeking at Distant Mountains: The Blue Wild Horse possesses exceptional eyesight, enabling it to perceive things at extremely far distances.

Chu Shenghan looked again at the horses of the others and found that, apart from his own which was of a different rank, the rest were just ordinary-quality mortal-rank wild horses.
