Banshee Family Training Record

Page 242

The small hill that he used to know so well had not been flattened during the many battles, but now it had been moved to some unknown place, leaving behind a thick layer of rocks, and in some places even a bottomless pit had been dug out.

The landscape of these mountains is being altered, and there is no doubt that this is all the work of the Yellow Python Ancestor.

The further Yun Chu'an walked, the heavier his heart became, deeply impressed by the unfathomable power of the Nascent Soul stage monster. He maintained a smile while carefully inquiring with Diao De'er about the current situation within the Yellow Python family, including how many Golden Core and Foundation Establishment stage demon cultivators remained.

On this matter, Diao De'er did not hide anything from him, and openly revealed all the inside information. After learning that there were only two Golden Core cultivators left in the Ten Thousand Snake Cave besides the Yellow Python Ancestor, Yun Chu'an breathed a sigh of relief and began to plan how to make use of the two of them.

Before long, they arrived at the main entrance of the Ten Thousand Snake Cave, where two snake demons at the Qi Refining stage were guarding the gate. The previous battle between Golden Core cultivators had caused mountains to crumble and the earth to split, resulting in countless deaths and injuries. The fact that these lowly demons of their cultivation level had survived could only be described as sheer luck.

Upon seeing Diao De'er approaching, the two little demons at the door showed him no respect whatsoever, immediately launching into a tirade of mockery: "Oh, isn't this 'De Paopao'? What, you still have the nerve to come back? Hahahaha!"

Yun Chu'an glanced at it and was surprised. It seemed that Diao De'er's situation at home was even worse than he had imagined. Even a little demon of this level dared to ignore the difference in cultivation and directly mock him.

Tsk tsk, no wonder he was so eager when he first found me.

If it were yesterday, faced with such ridicule, Diao De'er could only feign disdain and suppress his anger.

But now, with Yun Chuan'an supporting him, he finally didn't have to pretend anymore. He slapped them twice, and with two loud slaps, both little demons fell to the ground, their faces swollen like pig heads: "Ouch!"

Chapter 491 A prostitute a rogue cultivator had already had his way with...

"presumptuous!"

Diao De'er coldly glanced at them and cursed, "You trash who haven't even reached the Foundation Establishment stage dare to slander my honor like them?"

"Open your dog eyes wide and wait and see! Today, I'll show you all just how glorious the results of my plan have been!"

The two little demons were intimidated by his confident demeanor and dared not utter a word for a moment. Diao De'er walked in with his head held high and chest puffed out, with Yun Chu'an following behind. He thought to himself, "This guy, when he gets cocky, he really does have a bit of an air about him."

He didn't say much, but followed behind, passing through a long but unfamiliar passage, until he arrived at a completely new cave.

This cave is far more expansive than the former Cave of Ten Thousand Snakes, because this cave not only hollowed out the interior of the mountain, but also sought space downwards, digging a huge hole that is unknown how many meters deep, where countless snake demons can also live.

Looking at the snake pit, which was far more spacious than the previous one, Yun Chu'an wanted to take a closer look. He then told Diao De'er that as a member of the rat clan, he still felt an involuntary fear when he saw snakes, so he wouldn't accompany him to confront those who had slandered him; he could go by himself.

Diao De'er was also willing to do so, so he took the remains of the two corpse-driving sect cultivators from him and then arranged a small room for him to rest.

Having arranged all this, he rushed excitedly to the deepest part of the cave, wanting to find an explanation for himself.

After he left, Yun Chu'an naturally didn't rest either. He was already a Golden Core cultivator, and when he concealed his aura, even if he stood in front of some Foundation Establishment cultivators, they probably wouldn't be able to detect his presence.

Therefore, he wanted to thoroughly investigate the details of this new Ten Thousand Serpent Cave. He had entered and exited the old Ten Thousand Serpent Cave countless times, and had long since mastered its structure and terrain, but at that time, due to his weak cultivation, he had never been able to do anything about it.

But now, he can.

He cautiously traversed the New Ten Thousand Serpent Cave, investigating one cave after another to find out where the dwellings were, where the storage rooms were, where the training grounds were, and where the spirit-gathering arrays were. He quickly got a pretty good idea of ​​the locations.

He even thoroughly explored the places where the two Golden Core serpents usually cultivated. If he weren't so worried that his cultivation level would be suppressed and he might be exposed as soon as he entered, he would have really wanted to go to the deepest part of the Yellow Python Ancestor's cave to properly assess its current condition.

But he didn't take too many risks. He knew when to quit while he was ahead. After figuring things out, he returned to the room that Diao De'er had prepared for him, sat down cross-legged, and waited for him to return.

It took him quite a while to figure things out, so it wasn't long before Diao De'er cheerfully pushed open the door, patted his chest, and said, "Haha, brother, it's such a pity you weren't here just now. You can't believe how arrogant they were just now, and then after I showed them the evidence, wow, their expressions were absolutely priceless!"

"They even tried to attack me, saying I just got a bargain. Haha, even if they got a bargain like that, with their abilities, could they possibly get one!"

He took all the things Yun Chuan gave him for granted as his own merit.

Yun Chu'an, who had been sitting cross-legged pretending to meditate, opened his eyes and chuckled softly: "That's how people with limited knowledge are. They can't fathom your unwavering loyalty, Second Brother. They can only try to understand you with their vulgar ideas. Second Brother, don't bother with them. You're right."

Diao De'er was beaming with joy, extremely pleased by his flattery. He walked over and sat down beside him, patting him on the shoulder: "That's more like it. Ah, their expressions, just thinking about them makes me feel so nostalgic..."

He was still lost in his own world, but Yun Chu'an wasn't going to wait for him any longer. He had something important to ask: "Oh right, Second Brother, what exactly is that big thing our ancestor has been thinking about lately? Can you get involved?"

Diao De'er snapped out of his reverie and nodded: "Yes, I should be able to participate. Well, it's not that complicated. I just found out that the plan is to attack the Wei River and capture the entire Wei River Dragon Clan."

Yun Chu'an looked horrified, then saw the snake demon in front of him grin: "Before, we were afraid of the Wei River Dragon King's cultivation level and didn't dare to make a direct move. We only dared to kidnap the Wei River Dragon Prince to bleed him, but in the end, he escaped. It's a joke."

"But now, this time, we won't delay any longer. Let's go straight for the Old Dragon King! Haha, with the Ancestor's cultivation level, eliminating him is a piece of cake. We'll follow behind, and if we can get a few drops of dragon blood, transforming into a dragon won't be a problem at all!"

He laughed heartily, envisioning that wonderful future. Yun Chu'an's heart pounded, and his palms were sweating profusely.

Are they going to take action against the dragons?

That's right, transforming into a dragon has always been the dream of these snake demons. Previously, relying on the unfathomable cultivation and combat power of the old dragon king, they could be said to have been hesitant to act rashly.

But now, the Wei River Dragon Clan will soon face annihilation!

He was panicked, but gave an awkward laugh and agreed, "That's right. Ah, then the ancestor must act quickly. The dragon clan probably knows about this too, and he's probably preparing to escape as well."

Diao De'er said, "They can't escape. Ah, although I don't know why, there seem to be a lot of restrictions involved."

"But in short, they can't escape. The Wei River can't escape, so they can't escape. You don't need to worry. Even if they can't escape, the Ancestor can't wait any longer. He should make his move in the next day or two!"

Yun Chu'an was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly: "Then, with the merits that Second Brother has made, he should be able to get a lot of dragon blood, right? I must congratulate Second Brother on shedding his scales and transforming into a dragon in advance!"

Diao De'er laughed heartily, his expression one of extreme joy. Yun Chu'an asked a few more questions, subtly probing to ascertain the snake demons' general plan, before making an excuse about having family matters to attend to and taking his leave.

The snake demon didn't insist on keeping him and got up to see him off. Yun Chu'an turned and left the Ten Thousand Snake Cave, immediately using the Shrinking Earth Technique to speed through the mountains, quickly traversing hundreds of miles in a straight line and returning to the Wei Lake.

He disregarded everything else and rushed straight to the bottom of the water. The shrimp soldiers and crab generals who were on guard along the way wanted to stop him, but when they saw that it was him and they knew that he was the dragon prince's savior, they did not dare to stop him and had to let him go.

Yun Chu'an proceeded unimpeded, but before he even entered, the first thing he heard was a shout filled with disappointment and frustration: "You're going to marry a Hehuan Sect prostitute that a rogue cultivator has already used and discarded, treating her like a treasure? You're going to completely disgrace the Weihe Dragon Clan's reputation of eight hundred years!"

Then came the voice of Weihe Longzi: "Mom, this time is different, she really is different from others..."

Yun Chu'an strode into the Dragon Palace and saw the Dragon King's palace made of crystal. The Dragon Prince of the Wei River stood there with his head bowed. Beside him, a noblewoman dressed in elegant clothes was scolding someone with a face full of resentment.

Not far away, Dongfang Yue was also there, but at this moment the girl looked at them with sympathy, as if she had a lot to say but didn't know what to say.

Upon hearing her son's answer, Longzi's mother immediately clutched her chest and sighed repeatedly, as if she were extremely distressed by it.

Yun Chu'an stepped forward, his face full of confusion: "What's going on? What happened?"

When the Dragon Mother saw him coming, it was as if she had seen a savior, or as if she was desperate and grasping at straws. She hurriedly said, "Oh, Mr. Yun, you've come! Come quickly, come quickly! Listen to what's going on!"

"This guy, he'd rather not marry a perfectly good dragon girl than a female cultivator from the Joyful Union Sect! Good heavens, what is it about that dragon girl that you can't stand? Why do you have to go after someone from the Joyful Union Sect!"

"Even if you don't like the Dragon Girl, there are countless good girls of respectable birth in the world. With our family's wealth and status, you can choose any of them. What exactly are you trying to do?!"

She didn't hold back with her harsh words, and Weihe Longzi's face flushed red with extreme agitation: "Mom, I won't allow you to say that about her! She truly loves me!"

Yun Chu'an was stunned, somewhat bewildered. He turned to look at Dongfang Yue not far away, his gaze pleading for help, but the latter simply shrugged, indicating that she couldn't help him.

Chapter 492 Father Died, Mother Sick, Younger Brother Studying?

The Dragon Mother then turned to Yun Chu'an, her eyes filled with helplessness: "Mr. Yun, please help me persuade him. Our Weihe Dragon Clan is a respectable family. No matter what, we absolutely cannot let him marry a prostitute from the Hehuan Sect!"

Weihe Longzi turned his face away, his expression resolute: "Mom, benefactor, please stop talking. At worst, I'll run away from home. No matter what, I'm going to be with her!"

The Dragon Mother of the Wei River nearly fainted. Her carp spirit maids, dressed in colorful gowns, rushed forward to support her, preventing her from falling to the ground.

The old lady opened her eyes again, but didn't say another word. She just looked at Yun Chu'an for help.

The other dragon family members also looked at him, and for a moment, it seemed that a heavy responsibility was pressing on his shoulders.

Yun Chu'an also felt a chill run down his spine. He braced himself and stepped forward: "Brother Long, let me guess, uh, father dead, mother sick, younger brother studying?"

Weihe Longzi paused for a moment, then turned his head, looking at him with a puzzled expression. Yun Chu'an's expression brightened, thinking that he seemed to have guessed the trick correctly. He then said, "New to this line of work? Business failed and you have to pay off loans? Your ex-husband is abusive and a gambler?"

The dragon prince of the Wei River murmured, his throat moving, his lips barely moving: "You..."

"Having no way out by raising her child alone, she had no choice but to take a path of no return?" Yun Chu'an recalled the common tricks used by so-called foot massage girls to scam money by playing the victim, which she had seen on the internet in her previous life, and recited them all in one breath. "How many of these apply to you?"

Weihe Longzi's expression was complicated, and he was speechless: "How do you know so much..."

Yun Chu'an remained calm and composed: "It's all hearsay. I have many friends who have also been fooled in similar ways... Let's not talk about this, let's not talk about this."

He stopped at the right moment, not forcibly instilling anything in him, but simply said this and let him figure the rest out himself. Being too forceful would probably backfire.

Then, he finally got to the point: "I came here today mainly for another matter. Brother, and Aunt, let's find a quiet place to talk."

Seeing that her son was finally moved, the Dragon Mother was delighted. She naturally did not refuse Yun Chu'an's request, nodded, waved her hand, and signaled the servants to leave.

So the shrimp soldiers, crab generals, and carp maids all left one by one, and soon, only Yun Chuan, the Dragon Mother, the Dragon Prince, and Dongfang Yue remained in the huge Crystal Palace reception room.

Dongfang Yue thought it was a business matter and was about to leave, but Yun Chu'an immediately called out, "Miss Dongfang, you don't have to leave. You can listen to this without harm, and it might even be of great benefit to you."

Dongfang Yue stopped in her tracks, turned her head and looked back at him with a puzzled look in her eyes.

Yun Chu'an didn't delay any longer and continued, "I have received reliable information that Ancestor Huangmang is going to take action against the Weihe Dragon Clan."

"His purpose remains the same: to use the blood of the Wei River Dragon Clan to help him shed his scales, transform into a dragon, and ascend to the Dragon Clan."

Upon hearing this, both the dragon mother and son paled. The fear they had felt during their year of imprisonment in the Ten Thousand Serpent Cave surged into their hearts, and the Wei River Dragon Prince immediately trembled, clearly traumatized.

Daenerys quickly grabbed her son's hand, trembling all over, clearly terrified that she might lose her son again.

"What should we do?" she muttered to herself, trembling all over. "No, we have to leave, we have to leave quickly! We have to go and persuade the old man that we can't stay here anymore. We're about to lose our lives, what else can we talk about!"

Even though the Dragon King of the Wei River was a powerful cultivator in the late Golden Core stage, the Dragon Mother knew that her husband still had little room to resist in front of a true Nascent Soul demon.

Only by fleeing and evacuating to seek the protection of the Yellow River Dragon Clan could their family have a chance of survival.

Of the people present, Dongfang Yue was the calmest. Although the news was sudden, it was also somewhat reasonable, so after the initial surprise, the girl quickly regained her composure.

She tilted her head, thought carefully, then turned to Yun Chu'an and asked, "Is there a specific time? When will they launch their attack?"

Yun Chu'an spread his hands: "My little aunt, you're putting me in a difficult position. It's good enough that I was able to find out that they've been planning this recently. As for the specific time, I'm not a tapeworm in Huang Mang's stomach, how would I know when he plans to make his move?"

After all, the Yellow Python Clan only has their ancestor, who is at the Nascent Soul stage, and thus has absolute control. Therefore, as long as the ancestor is ready, any action can be taken, and the other pythons are merely cooperating with him.

Therefore, no one could predict when the pythons would make their move. Dongfang Yue actually knew this, but she still asked on purpose, wanting to tease him: "Your information is really unreliable, Xiao Yunzi, go back and investigate again before reporting back."

Yun Chu'an rolled her eyes, not in the mood for jokes: "In short, the yellow pythons are becoming more and more active. Everyone, we need to take action. Whether it's evacuation or figuring out a way to stop them, we don't have much time left."

Seeing that he ignored her, Dongfang Yue felt bored. Still somewhat unwilling to give up, she decided to talk to him a little more, and immediately said, "We expected all of this. Sigh, guess why I'm here now?"

Yun Chu'an tilted his head: "You came to the Dragon Clan's house to beg for food because you were short of money?"

Dongfang Yue rolled her eyes at him, but inwardly she was inexplicably excited and wanted to banter with him: "Senior sister had already anticipated this, so all this time, what we've been preparing for is to eliminate the Yellow Python Ancestor."

"Today, we've come to the Dragon Palace to bring the Dragon King along and see if we can destroy him."

Her words moved Yun Chu'an instantly: "You can get a Nascent Soul cultivator to help?"

Dongfang Yue shook her head: "Of course not, but a Golden Core is enough to kill Ancestor Yellow Python!"

Yun Chu'an looked on in disbelief, while at this moment, Dongfang Yue showed a proud expression: "Don't underestimate my senior sister, she is a peerless genius that has been seen only once in thousands of years in the entire Qingyun Sect!"

Yun Chuan remained noncommittal, but recalling Yan Shuiyi's stunning talent, he did agree with the assessment.

As her words fell, a burly figure emerged from the depths of the Dragon Palace; it was none other than the Dragon King of the Wei River.

He was nearly two meters tall, with a human body and a dragon's face, wearing a crown and a brocade robe. He exuded a powerful aura of authority and was imposing without being angry.

Yun Chuan is now also a Golden Core cultivator. He carefully observed the Dragon King and used the "Qi Observation Method" to sense the powerful and majestic energy emanating from him. For a moment, he even felt a little frightened.

He took several deep breaths to get used to the dragon's might that naturally emanated from the Dragon King, and then noticed that there were several familiar and unfamiliar figures following behind him.

Among the familiar faces were Yan Shuiyi, Sheng Linglong, Monk Huijing, and Ge Xiang. The unfamiliar one was a woman dressed in a white veil, exuding an ethereal aura, yet her eyes revealed a sharp and dangerous edge.

Regardless of their attire, one thing is certain: these people are all at the Golden Core stage of cultivation.

After glancing over, Yun Chu'an's gaze fell on Monk Huijing, and he nodded slightly, indirectly conveying his congratulations to him.

Monk Huijing clasped his hands together and said nothing more. The Dragon King of the Wei River strode forward, walked up to Yun Chuan, and grasped his hands: "Fellow Daoist! You are our family's benefactor. I appreciate your kindness."

"However, the dragons have their own responsibilities. We are in charge of the flow of rivers, lakes, and seas, and we must not easily abandon our posts. Therefore, no matter what other families do, the Wei River dragons will never leave their posts."

He spoke with righteous indignation and his voice boomed like a bell. Although Yun Chu'an didn't know what kind of trouble he was entangled in, after the Dragon King's words, he understood that it was probably indeed impossible for his family to leave.

His gaze swept past Yan Shuiyi before landing on Sheng Linglong. Yan Shuiyi's eyes met his, and a slight ripple stirred within her. However, she was certain that Yun Chu'an knew nothing of what had happened that day, so she quickly put it aside, her expression calm, and focused all her attention on what was about to unfold.

Chapter 493 First meeting Bai Suwan

Sheng Linglong looked at him and said firmly, "Chu'an, you don't need to worry. We have made complete preparations."

"We were worried about how to make a move to gain the upper hand. But now that we know he's coming, that's perfect."

As she spoke, she shifted her gaze from Yun Chu'an, scanned the scene, and declared loudly, "We can set a trap, wait for him to come, and then give him a surprise!"

Behind her, the woman in white gauze, whom Yun Chu'an didn't recognize, nodded and smiled: "That's how it should be, so that he won't leave alive!"

Yun Chu'an's heart pounded. Her gaze swept over them, and she felt that this matter was not entirely safe.

He continued, "In that case, I'll stay here too. Besides the Nascent Soul stage ancestor, the Yellow Python family also has two Golden Core stage giant snakes. While you all focus on fighting the Nascent Soul stage monster, I can provide support from the side."

Upon hearing this, Sheng Linglong immediately became anxious: "No! Chu'an, you must go back. The Jin Kingdom will need you in the future. It's not time for you to put yourself in danger!"

The woman in white gauze was none other than Bai Suwan, the White Serpent Queen of Zhao. She had already informed Sheng Linglong and the others of her entire plan and organized this battle.

However, in reality, none of them were truly confident in using Golden Core cultivators to hunt Nascent Soul cultivators. Sheng Linglong, as a princess, had her territory shrink to this point, leaving her with nowhere to retreat, which is why she had the idea of ​​fighting to the death.
