From stable boy to peerless immortal

"Red Sun Spirit Body...this must be a special innate physique."

Shen Yuan seemed to be deep in thought, then a thought struck him: "I wonder how it compares to the Dragon Elephant Body of the eldest son, Hua Yulin..."

Hua Yulin was born with extraordinary talent, possessing the rare physique of the Dragon and Elephant Body. It is said that on the day of his birth, strange phenomena appeared in the sky, with the courtyard filled with rosy light and the sounds of dragons roaring and elephants howling.

At the tender age of twenty-six, his martial arts cultivation had already reached the level of a martial arts master, and he was only a step away from becoming a martial arts grandmaster who could establish his own sect. He was known as the number one genius of Hua Rong Prefecture!

Of course, Shen Yuan knew perfectly well that Hua Yulin was indeed a martial arts genius, without a doubt, but to say that he was the number one genius of Hua Rong Mansion was probably an understatement.

The true number one genius of Hua Rong Mansion should be Hua Qinglian. After all, this girl has already formed her Golden Core, and it is even a first-grade Golden Core. In terms of talent, comprehension and luck, she is far superior to Hua Yulin!

It was only because Hua Qinglian was indifferent to fame and fortune and deliberately kept a low profile, coupled with the deliberate promotion by Madam Wu, Hua Yulin's mother, that Hua Yulin was able to "become famous far and wide"!

Now that Shen Yuan himself has undergone a complete transformation and possesses the talent of the Crimson Sun Spirit Body, he can't help but feel a sense of comparison.

"Hmm? There are so many inherited memories?"

At this moment, Shen Yuan also discovered that he had many inherited memories of the Crimson Scale Horse clan in his mind.

Most of them are fragments of memory, such as eating, hunting, migration, defending against enemies, and carrying people to kill enemies on the battlefield. A few fragments of memory are about the inheritance of cultivation. Most of them are cultivation methods of the demon race, but there are also immortal methods of the human race. They are clearly memories engraved deep in the blood of the Crimson Scale Horses from generation to generation.

This surprised and delighted Shen Yuan, who secretly thought that there might be a cultivation method suitable for him among them.

The Crimson Scale Horse clan may not be a noble or high-ranking clan, but their ancestors possessed a trace of dragon-horse and celestial horse blood, and their bloodline inheritance inevitably contains profound methods.

However, Shen Yuan didn't have time to examine these memory fragments carefully at the moment.

He could sense that some people were already heading towards the stables.

The commotion caused by the Crimson Scale Horse was quite significant, and it has likely alerted many people.

"Amitabha......"

With a Buddhist chant carrying a metallic quality, a gaunt monk appeared beside Shen Yuan.

The monk was dressed in a tattered robe, dark and thin, with skin as black and dry as charcoal. His old face was stiff and wooden, but his eyes were warm and gentle like topaz, kind and compassionate.

"Holy shit!"

Shen Yuan was startled, as the old monk's appearance was too sudden, without any warning, as if he had always been there.

He knew perfectly well that this old monk was a master with unfathomable cultivation!

"This humble monk is like a withered tree."

The old monk clasped his hands together, his voice hoarse and grating, like two pieces of wood rubbing together: "I have disturbed you, benefactor; I am truly guilty!"

"So it is Master Kumu. My name is Shen Yuan, and I am the manager of the stables here."

Facing a powerful figure whose background was unclear, Shen Yuan returned the greeting respectfully and asked curiously, "Master, are you a retainer of the household?"

The Hua Rong Mansion is full of powerful figures, and anyone who can move freely within the mansion is certainly not an outsider. Since the person in front of me is a monk, he is most likely a retainer of the mansion.

"good."

The old monk withered wood held one palm up in front of his chest, his eyes lowered: "This humble monk's cultivation is still shallow, and I need to rely on external forces to accumulate Buddhist power, so I take refuge in your mansion."

He gazed at the spirited red-scaled horse before him, then looked at Shen Yuan, as if he had discerned something. His expression stiffened, but his words carried a hint of doubt: "May I ask, Benefactor Shen, this horse...?"

"To be honest, Master, this horse is my own, and its bloodline has just transformed into that of a spirit horse."

Shen Yuan did not hide it. He knew very well that this kind of thing could not be hidden, nor was there any need to hide it.

The Hua Rong Mansion started out raising horses and placed great importance on skilled horse breeders who could produce exceptional horses. Even the Great Zhou Dynasty had a special Horse Breeding Bureau to recruit talent, and horse breeders could petition the court for official positions.

Therefore, Master Ma's status was exceptionally special.

Shen Yuan needs to demonstrate his value in order to enhance his status and position and gain more benefits!

Horse breeding is the most suitable channel for him!

Now that he is in charge, if he also has the identity of a horse trainer, he will definitely receive attention and courtesy from the Hua Rong Mansion. The name "Shen Yuan" will truly enter the field of vision of the masters and ladies in the inner palace, and his status will be greatly elevated.

Even if someone like Steward Wu saw him, no matter how much he secretly wished he could tear him apart, he would still have to be polite and respectful on the surface and dare not be presumptuous.

Needless to say, the material benefits were also exceptional.

In addition to the extra monthly salary, they can also enter the Musashi Warehouse to choose a martial art, and even have the qualifications to seek an official position for themselves, obtain "official status", and become a so-called official.

"Amitabha Buddha, it is truly admirable that you possess such abilities at such a young age..."

The old monk withered wood was somewhat astonished, but his face remained stiff, looking rather terrifying.

"I observe that your aura is perfectly harmonious and complete, exhibiting an impermeable quality, which is also the appearance of a Vajra. You must have an affinity with Buddhism."

The old monk withered wood gazed at Shen Yuan with unfathomable eyes, as if he had seen through something. "If Benefactor Shen is interested, perhaps..."

This old monk actually saw through some of my secrets... Shen Yuan was startled. Under his gaze, he felt as if his whole being had been seen through, which was terrifying.

However, what the old monk meant was that he saw my talent and wanted to take me as his disciple.

That won't do!

His current achievements and talent are mainly due to the fact that he spent half a year hiding in the Hua Rong Mansion, quietly raising horses to develop.

As long as he continues to raise horses and practice martial arts step by step, he can continue to develop his talent and improve his cultivation. Sooner or later, he will achieve great success!

If he were to leave this environment, how could he continue to develop in such a sly manner?

"Master, I..."

Just as Shen Yuan was about to refuse, he heard another cold and quiet voice:

"Shen Yuan is my capable subordinate and also the manager of my Hua family. Fellow Daoist Kumu, isn't your behavior a bit excessive?"

Shen Yuan looked in the direction of the sound and saw a tall, voluptuous, graceful figure with an ethereal charm appear not far in front of him. It was none other than the young lady, Hua Qinglian!

However, since Hua Qinglian calls this monk a fellow Daoist, could he also be a Golden Core level being?

"Amitabha......"

The withered monk clasped his hands together and respectfully greeted her: "So Benefactor Shen is Miss's subordinate. This humble monk has overstepped his bounds, please forgive me, Miss."

He couldn't help but sigh again: "But Benefactor Shen was born with the appearance of a Vajra, and has only just awakened his talent. If no one guides him, he will inevitably go astray. This humble monk really cannot bear to see this child's talent buried."
