Chapter 020 Asking for an Olive Branch
All the guards and the Emperor's protectors were very happy about the two little guys' success.
Naturally, they liked the two little masters of the Qi family from the bottom of their hearts.
After breakfast, everyone set off directly to the Snow Moon Forest, and Shen Yichuan finally confirmed that his concealment method was indeed invisible to the several Martial Emperors in the team! This made Shen Yichuan slightly relieved. He didn't want his strength to be exposed under other people's noses all the time!
"Father, is this the Snow Moon Forest?" Qi Mengxi's eyes sparkled as she raised her hands high. "I must get my high-level Mystic Beast Egg from here!"
Qi Kongyang also nodded: "That's right! Father, I want one too!"
Shen Yichuan smiled: "Okay, let's work together, and I hope our luck will be better."
The team set off, and the people of the Qi family entered the Snow Moon Forest. Their group was large, and all of them were high-level cultivators, so there was a vacuum zone around them. Some independent cultivators or mercenary teams did not dare to approach. After all, no one wanted to cause trouble. Who knew the tempers of these high-level cultivators!
Just after Shen Yichuang and his team completely entered the Snow Moon Forest, two figures flashed outside the forest and quickly returned to the mayor's mansion.
Zhang Huaan was in the study at this time. After receiving the reply from his subordinates, he nodded and said, "I understand. Go down."
The two monks who were in charge of surveillance immediately took their leave. When Zhang Hua'an was the only one left in the room, he walked to the bookcase in the study and knocked on a certain place rhythmically. Suddenly, a mechanism unfolded in front of him and a passage appeared in front of him.
Zhang Huaan entered and came to a secret room after passing through a long passage. In the secret room, a man in black, covered by a black robe and cloak, was sitting at a stone table drinking tea.
"Sir!" Zhang Hua'an bowed respectfully.
The man in black robe glanced at Zhang Hua'an indifferently, and his voice seemed a little ethereal, probably because of his martial arts skills, and also because he wanted to avoid revealing his true voice.
"They went in?"
"Yes, the Qi family's team has already entered the Snow Moon Forest."
The black-robed man nodded and threw out a porcelain bottle, "Go to the target location and make arrangements."
"Yes." Zhang Hua'an was very respectful.
Then, the black-robed man threw out a porcelain bottle and said, "This is your reward. There will be a generous reward after you succeed."
This time, Zhang Huaan seemed a little excited after receiving the porcelain bottle. He bowed respectfully and said, "Thank you for the reward, sir."
The man in black robe waved his hand: "Go out."
Zhang Hua'an respectfully took his leave. When his figure left the secret room, the man in black robes leisurely stood up and disappeared from the spot in an instant, like a ghost...
…
Snow Moon Forest.
"Dad is awesome! Dad is the best in the world!" the twins shouted at the top of their lungs.
In the void, the four Martial Emperors were all happy.
Shortly after entering the Snow Moon Forest, Shen Yichuan personally took action. He displayed the strength of a beginner martial artist, but his agility and his devouring skills were not concealed. He sucked the entire body of the forest beasts that fought him dry. Sometimes, when the beasts were too weak and he didn't want to devour them, he would just kill them in a bloody massacre. In short, he was definitely a beautiful sight wherever he went!
And the twins have been cheering for their father even after Shen Yichuan took action, like now.
"Young Master Chen is a good kid. Although he is young, he looks very experienced. He knows when to kill and makes decisions promptly. Not bad, not bad." This is the evaluation of the Golden Protector.
"This boy is very different from when he first entered the Qi family. His progress is amazing." said another guardian.
Protector Qian laughed and stroked his beard: "It is indeed very good. I am amazed."
As for the idea that the Devouring Technique was too cruel, no one present felt that way. The Xuanhuang Continent was vast, and there were all sorts of bizarre techniques. A warrior shouldn't judge a person by their technique; judging a person is still about the person, not the technique. There were undoubtedly countless devouring techniques like this on the continent!
Although the Sixth Elder didn't say anything, he was obviously satisfied with Shen Yichuang's performance. This could be seen from the smile on his face.
It was getting dark and the team planned to rest for the night. After finding a place, the martial artists began to get busy.
Several tents were set up, with Shen Yichuan and the twins’ tents surrounded in the middle.
At this moment, in Shen Yichuan's tent, the twins were massaging their father's shoulders and legs.
"Father, are you feeling well?"
"Father, is our craftsmanship okay?"
Shen Yichuan smiled and expressed satisfaction: "Well, both are good. Well, you have been beating for a while, you can take a break."
The twins stopped and looked at Shen Yichuan with wide eyes.
"Father, how long will it take us to reach the place where high-level mysterious beasts appear?" Qi Kongyang asked, looking forward to the answer to this question.
Shen Yichuan laughed and said, "Are you impatient?"
The twins were a little embarrassed, but both nodded, "Yeah."
"It will probably take another four to five days." This is already considered a fast speed. There are many people in their group, and ordinary intermediate mystical beasts will not come here to seek death unless they are a group of mystical beasts. That is why they can reach the deep periphery at such a fast speed.
"It still takes so long." The twins were a little disappointed, but soon became excited again, discussing what kind of mysterious beast they wanted and how to raise it in the future.
It was late at night and the twins fell asleep.
Shen Yichuan took out a fireball and began to devour the energy inside the fireball.
He didn't know what the fireball was, but as soon as he devoured it, Shen Yichuan felt the Devouring Divine Power within him roar with excitement. The fireball began to shrink little by little, but once it shrunk to a certain size, the rate of further shrinkage slowed down. This was because... Shen Yichuan had already absorbed the core of the fireball!
It is naturally not easy to swallow the essence core.
What no one knew, including the four Martial Emperors in the void, was that the two little creatures had now appeared silently in Shen Yichuang's tent.
The two little creatures were the reptile and the chicken. The two little creatures communicated with each other through their consciousness: "The breath of this guy is really disgusting." The reptile glanced unkindly in the direction of Shen Yichuan.
The chick was also unhappy: "Indeed."
As a naturally powerful being, even though he was born not long ago, his aversion to "natural enemies" was ingrained in his bones from birth.
At this time, Shen Yichuan did not give them the feeling of being a natural enemy, but the difference was not too big, so he made them disgusted.
"Is this man really the father of the two little devils? Their biological children? Is this what they humans call... heredity, genetic mutation?" Reptile looked at Shen Yichuan in confusion, then at the twins.
Yes, those twins are really little devils. Wouldn't a devil want to crush them to death or chop them into pieces? Although that little bit of strength is not even as strong as a tickle, they have such a heart!
The chick scratched the hair on its chin with the tip of its chubby wing, "I don't know. Let's go stay for a while while this annoying human is practicing."
The reptile nodded, turned into a beam of light and disappeared under Qi Kongyang's collar, and the chicken also quickly disappeared under Qi Mengxi's collar.
Of course, they are so powerful that they wouldn't go to the inn for no reason. They were attracted there by some special aura of good fortune. These two little things are a bit demonic, but their strength is too weak. It's a dream to hurt them. So, considering that they can help them grow up faster and maybe even advance, I'll just stay with them reluctantly!
Shen Yichuan practiced for a whole night. When he opened his eyes at dawn, there was only the size of two fingernails left in the fireball in his hand. Although there was not much left, the remaining parts were the essence and core of the fireball. It would probably take another night to completely absorb what was left in his hand.
Looking at the essence in his hand, Shen Yichuan was impressed and satisfied.
The energy of this fireball is much greater than the previous mutant rain steel stone! Now, he is very confident that he can break through the martial arts master under these fireballs!
Martial Master, Shen Yichuan was a little bit looking forward to it, wondering what kind of strength that was. Even though there were many Martial Master masters around him, those people were not him, so he still didn't quite understand what kind of power Martial Master had!
"Father..." The two twins woke up and sat up, rubbing their eyes.
Then, the twins rubbed their chests. Qi Mengxi pouted and said, "Why do I feel like I've been pressed down by something all night? I'm so tired."
"Huh? Sister, do you feel this way too? I do too. Could this be the legendary sleep paralysis?"
"It's possible." Qi Mengxi snorted unhappily, then rushed towards Shen Yichuan.
"Father, I want a massage."
Qi Kongyang was unwilling to be left behind, so he rushed over and said, "Father, I want to rub it too."
Shen Yichuan smiled and rubbed the twins. As for what they said about sleep paralysis, he naturally didn't take it to heart. He just thought that the two children didn't sleep well in the tent.
After breakfast, the team continued on their journey. Four days passed in the blink of an eye. They were now almost at the outskirts of the area where high-level mysterious beasts would come and go, but there was still some distance away. It was getting dark, so the team planned to rest here for a night.
After all, the Snow Moon Forest is much more dangerous at night than during the day. Generally, people who enter the forest will not choose to travel at night unless they are in a hurry.
Hearing that they could reach the high-level mysterious beast area tomorrow, the twins were very happy and chattered for a long time before falling asleep.
Shen Yichuan took out the second fireball. It was still the size of an adult's fist, but it was full of essence. He wasn't sure if he could absorb it all in one night. Furthermore, his cultivation had already reached the peak of the Martial Master level! This surprised Shen Yichuan greatly. He thought that perhaps consuming the third fireball would allow him to break through to the Martial Master level. How could he not be surprised?
Just when Shen Yichuang was practicing, the two little creatures appeared again silently. They came quietly every night and left before Shen Yichuang woke up. They had become very skilled!
But today, when the two little ones crawled under the twins' collars, something unexpected happened.
