Eternal Beast Taming Family

The "Azure Wood Spirit Dragon" hovered in the air for a moment before continuing to do what it had not yet finished.

Visibly, the black mountain range was completely covered by emerald green, and apart from being more gentle and wider, it seemed to be no different from the surrounding mountains.

The various lesser demons atop the mountain range, along with the tribes they protected, stood somewhat bewildered on the densely forested mountainside, wondering why the environment on the mountain range had suddenly undergone such a drastic change.

Chu Jingyu stood beside the Black Rock Mountain Spirit, whose expression was complex, and softly asked, "Lord Mountain Spirit, do you wish for more humans to be protected and for their civilization to flourish, or do you believe that they only need to maintain the status quo?"

The Blackrock Mountain Spirit looked at the human and said matter-of-factly, "Naturally, the more prosperous, the better."

Chu Jingyu cupped his hands in greeting, "Then Lord Mountain Spirit might as well entrust the construction of Black Rock City to our tribe. In just one year, Lord Mountain Spirit will surely see changes."

The Black Rock Mountain Spirit glanced at Chu Jingyu's exceptionally luxurious and exquisite attire and realized that the tribe of that tree spirit senior seemed to have an extremely high standard of living.

It was probably out of empathy for its own kind that it wanted to improve the lives of the other humans. And since it was only for a year, which was just a short nap for it, it wanted to see just how far the humans could go.

The Blackrock Mountain Spirit thought about it carefully for a moment, then nodded.

Chu Jingyu's eyes flickered, and he had roughly determined the reason for the shape of this place. If the tribe that worshipped the demon god had a higher quality of life or was more prosperous, it would definitely be of great benefit to the demon god.

Otherwise, why would they bother to protect a race of humans who are completely different from themselves?

"Then let's go back and discuss it first, and then proceed with the construction of the city."

"Can."

Chu Jingyu and Chu Shengyuan then left Black Rock Mountain with the "Cloud Grass Deer," who was almost completely disoriented.

After they left, the rat demon finally appeared beside the "Black Rock Mountain Spirit." The rat demon stroked its beard in a very human-like manner.

"Brother, this tribe gives me a very strange feeling. As a protected human race, their respect for us demon gods is only superficial, but they still maintain enough arrogance in their hearts."

Moreover, their clothing was luxurious, and the style was somewhat similar to that of the human race that came from the Tianhua Dynasty before. I felt that they were not some reclusive race, but more like a foreign race from outside the demon kingdom.

The rat demon's eyes gleamed with intelligence as it shared its observations and speculations.

The Black Rock Mountain Spirit sighed uneasily. "Second Brother means to report this? But our Black Rock City is located on the edge of the Demon Kingdom. If we report this, it will probably take a long time for the envoy to arrive."

Moreover, that tree demon is a high-level demon of the domain rank, and the envoy from the demon kingdom must be subdued by no fewer than three demons of the same rank.

"If they launch a campaign against us, most of the territory we've painstakingly built up will crumble. And if word gets out, the tree demon might turn on us, and the three of us brothers might be the first to perish beneath its branches."

"So we need to keep them calm first. We can send our third brother to report the situation; he's injured, so recuperating is a good excuse."

When the higher-ups arrive, we'll use the results of our routine patrols as an excuse. Once they've confirmed the findings, we can rest easy. In the end, whatever the outcome, it won't concern Blackrock City.

The rat demon's idea was simple: to ask the higher-ups to investigate the origins of this newly emerged tribe. If it was indeed a reclusive clan, that would be best, as they could cooperate with them more confidently in the future.

If they come from outside the Demon Kingdom, they are also targets that need to be defeated and dealt with. Black Rock City can simply cheer them on from the sidelines.

"Alright, that's settled then. Go find Third Brother. By the way, how are his injuries? Is it anything serious?"

The rat demon sighed, "Although that dragon-type source beast looks like it's wood-attribute, its attacks are indeed domineering. My third brother's injuries will probably require at least three or four months of recuperation before he can set off again."

The Black Rock Mountain Spirit held out its palm, and a drop of stone milk emitting a faint fragrance appeared in its hand. "This is spiritual vein stone milk. Take it to your third brother to help him heal."

The rat demon's face lit up with joy. "Thank you, brother."

The stalactite floated in the air, about to land in the rat demon's hand, but suddenly a fair and slender hand, clearly belonging to a human, appeared in the air and gently scooped it up, changing the stalactite's direction.

"What a touching scene of brotherly love and respect! It almost moved me to tears."

Upon hearing this sound, the rat demon and the "Black Rock Mountain Spirit" changed their expressions drastically. Finally, they saw the carefree young man with a smile, holding the drop of stalactite and carefully observing something.

Beside the boy stood a figure in a long robe with a human body but wearing a rabbit-shaped metal mask. Its aura was no weaker than that of the dragon-like source beast from before.

"If I hadn't deliberately stayed behind, I wouldn't have known you had such a scheme going on behind our backs. How could you betray us so soon after confirming the cooperation? It seems our Chu family has been too lenient with you."

The Black Rock Mountain Spirit seemed to think it was the young man who had spoken first, while the powerful demonic beast stood beside him like a guard.

Instantly, it understood that this tribe was indeed completely different from them, just as the rat demon had said. They were definitely a tribe from outside the demon kingdom. However, even having discovered this, it dared not say anything at the moment.

As soon as it was spoken, it had a premonition that the tree-clan source beast would definitely cross space and come to kill the three brothers here.

"Young master is joking. We were just discussing... discussing... thinking of asking the higher-ups to confirm it, so that we could cooperate more closely in the future. Now that you are unwilling, young master, we will not bring it up again."

Chu Shengyuan gave a soft snort, and another small beast appeared beside him, with two bright star-like points floating and sinking around it.

The expressions of "Black Rock Mountain Spirit" and the Rat Demon instantly darkened. It was yet another different Domain-level demon beast. Today alone, this tribe had displayed no less than five Domain-level Origin Beasts. With this level of power, destroying Black Rock Mountain would be an easy task.

So why did they play along with their act before? If you just threatened them directly, they wouldn't dare disobey!

"Do you think I would trust you? I can only feel at ease when I have your lives firmly in my hands."

Chu Shengyuan gently waved his hand towards the two beasts, and two star-like points floated towards them. "If you two can fuse this star soul, I'll spare your lives, how about that?"
