Yan Qiushuang explained, “But he has been missing for hundreds of years. Today’s Zhonggu is divided into several tribes, each ruled by several powerful evil beasts. If you only want to see Lord Shan Ze, I advise you not to go there. The situation there is horrible. Those evil beast kings have been fighting for supremacy in Zhonggu all year-round. You’ll soon die in their hands given your minor cultivation.”
The black rat, “…”
The water snake, “…”
The whole hall fell into silence.
All of a sudden, someone outside said, “I think Lord Shan Ze is still alive.”
Everyone in the hall looked out of the door and saw Yin Su fly in.
Rong Yi was curious, “How do you know?”
“It is said that an evil beast ever saw him a few years ago.”
“A few years? Then how many years exactly?” Yin Jinye asked.
Yin Su thought for a moment, “Six or seven, I guess.”
“Where exactly?”
“Both in Zhonghai and Beiba Prefecture. I’m not sure if it’s true or not. I just happened to overhear someone gossiped. No one has confirmed it.”
Yin Jinye, “…”
Rong Yi wondered why Yin Jinye appeared to be more anxious than the two little evil beasts to know Shan Ze’s whereabouts.
The black rat was puzzled, “Why did he make the disappearance?”
Yin Su replied, “I heard that someone wanted his divine power and injured him seriously. So he chose to hide.”
The two evilk beasts made an eye contact but did not speak.
“If you still want to go to Zhonggu Prefecture,” said Rong Yi, “I can ask my partner to find someone to send you there. But if you haven’t decided yet, you can stay here until you have thought it over. Just ask me if you need help.”
Their eyes lit up, “Can we stay here?”
They had no place to go, and Rong’s Mansion was perfect for them.
“Of course.”
“But we have large numbers.”
Yan Qiushuang held her forehead, “Yi’er, you can go out and have a look.”
“…” Rong Yi walked out of the room and saw on the roofs, pillars, beams, there were various evil beasts in large numbers, “Why are there so many?”
He felt that his mansion would become a zoo.
“Almost all the monsters hiding in Jiuxu have run into our mansion,” said Xinghe.
The bird beasts standing on the roof said, “We’ll just take the roof. Please don’t drive us away.”
The spiritual qi here was even purer than that of Nine Void Sect. To cultivate here for a few days was equal to cultivate for one month in Nine Void Sect. They felt unwilling to leave.
The evil beasts standing on the beams and pillars also begged Rong Yi not to drive them away. They had low cultivation and left Nine Void Sect for the first time, having no idea where to go.
Rong Yi looked around, feeling embarrassed. The number was indeed too large and it was truly not easy to settle down them all. However, it was also no harm to do so.
He thought for a moment, “It’s okay. But you can’t make trouble or have fights. Besides, you’re not staying here for free. I need you to do things for me.”
An evil beast asked, “What do we need to do? Will you restrict our freedom? Will it cost our lives?”
Rong Yi shook his head, “No, you’ll be free. You can go out or leave at any time if you want. What you’re required to do is also as simple as chatting. It’ll definitely not endanger your lives.”
All the evil beasts were willing to stay after hearing this.
Rong Yi started to place them, “Those who can live underground, dig holes. Others, find your own places to stay. But don’t choose corridors, open spaces in the yard or in our rooms.”
Those evil beasts all cheered.
Yan Qiushuang was a bit surprised, “Yi’er, do you really want to keep them?”
“They could be of help. Let them live here temporarily. If there’re other places to place them, I’ll make further arrangements.”
At this moment, Xiang Lv and Bu Qi came in, “Master shifu.”
Rong Yi smiled, “Here you came.”
“Shifu, are you all right?” Xiang Lv was concerned about Rong Yi’s health.
“I’m good.” Rong Yi turned a circle, “Couldn’t be better.”
Seeing Rong Yi, words stopped by Bu Qi’s lips.
Rong Yi tried to relax the atmosphere, “Come on, let’s go for a walk in the garden.”
Bu Qi nodded.
Knowing Bu Qi had something to say, Xiang Lv did not follow.
They walked into the garden, and immediately heard those bird beasts were chirping.
Rong Yi smiled, “It’s getting vigorous here. Not like winter.”
“Master shifu…” Bu Qi felt embarrassed, “I’m sorry about the torture you had suffered at Nine Void Sect.”
Rong Yi appeared to be generous, “It’s not done by you. Why should you apologize to me?”
“As the chief’s great grand master uncle, I didn’t teach him well. I’m sorry about that.”
Rong Yi looked at the crane standing on the frozen lake, hands behind his back, wondering why the immortal mount of Nine Void Sect had come here. “I’m just curious, why the chief who was supposed to help me was convinced by his wife.”
“Well…” Bu Qi told Rong Yi the whole story.
Rong Yi’s eyebrows screwed up, “So, you mean they dealt with me all because of Yin elders?”
“Yes.”
Rong Yi sneered, “They really took great pains only to deal with such a minor figure like me.”
Bu Qi was worried for Rong Yi, “Yin elders are tough and hard to deal with. They would seize other chances after each failure.”
“Hard to deal with? I highly doubt.” Rong Yi did not put them in his eyes at all.
Bu Qi felt that Rong Yi already had a card in his sleeve, so he asked immediately, “Master shifu, are you…”
Rong Yi asked, “Do you want to avenge for your master shifu me?”
“Of course.” Not only for his master shifu, Bu Qi also wanted to revenge for whole Nine Void Sect. Its current down-and-out appearance was all because of them while those elders were comfortable living their own lives. How could Bu Qi ever take this?
Rong Yi took out a paper and a brush pen to draw a painting and handed it to Bu Qi, “Refine another five enchanted runes according to it and then send them to the second strongest cultivation family in Dongtang and the sects who are against Yin family. Tell them these attacking enchanted runes can enhance their magical weapons. If they want more, they can exchange them with the heads of Yin elders.”
Bu Qi, “!!!”
He had to admit, his master shifu really knew how to play his cards well. He wanted to set the world on fire!
“How about Master Yin?”
“I’ll explain things to him. Besides, it’s not an easy task to get their heads, but enough to make their life difficult. With the second strongest cultivation family as their opponent, they would suffer. Those elders always despise my enchanted runes. I’ll let them see the charm and power of them!”
Bu Qi began to look forward to what would happen next, “I’ll do it right away.”
Rong Yi said, “Ask Rong Su to call Qi Yueshi and others here. I have something to tell them.”
“Yes.”
