CHAPTER 151: CHAPTER 141 MO YU, THE MUTATION OF GOLDEN FINGER_3

In the time that followed, Mo Yu quickly integrated into this large family.

「Returning to Void Hunting Ground」

Da Bai, limping, picked up the sunglasses that had been thrown off in the aftermath of the battle and put them on his face.

CRACK.

A lens shattered and fell to the ground.

Da Bai took a deep breath and furiously smashed the sunglasses on the ground. Looking at the corpse of the Demon Clan elite, he grumbled, "Do you know that these were my last pair of sunglasses? Death was too good for you!"

Bai Ya, covered in wounds, said speechlessly, "Can you stop goofing around? We need to heal first. If we stay here any longer, the Demon Clan will come again."

"Hmph, let’s go."

During this period, under Ao Juli’s orders, a large number of Demon Clan elites had appeared in the Returning to Void Hunting Ground. These Return to Void Demon Clan members possessed high potential and could be considered future Demon Generals, or even Great Demon Generals; they were very strong.

Their sole mission was to kill the "twin white demons," which had led to the current situation.

"Hey, Bai Ya, what madness has possessed the Demon Clan? Why are they only targeting us?" Da Bai sounded frustrated.

The Demon Clan’s constant targeting had significantly reduced their usual income. Although the Merit points on their Tokens kept increasing, how could mere numbers compare to the satisfying feel of tangible Spirit Stones?

Bai Ya was quite helpless; she had certainly learned just how unreliable Da Bai could be. "What do you think?" she asked. "How many Demon Clan members have we killed during this period? And haven’t you noticed that the number of cultivators has also decreased? We should go back."

"Go back? No way! I haven’t earned enough yet. Besides, this bunch from the Demon Clan isn’t even that strong. Together, we’re invincible here. Why should we be afraid? Opportunities like this don’t come often. And since we snuck out, Master definitely won’t let us out again if we go back," Da Bai declared with certainty.

Bai Ya nodded in agreement. Though she wasn’t sure if she would be able to get out again, Da Bai certainly wouldn’t.

Ao Juli once again crushed the report in his hand and roared, "Are you all useless? Didn’t you say you sent elites in? Where are they? Why are they all dead? Are these elites all trash? They can’t even kill two Spiritual Beasts? I’m giving you one last chance. If you fail again, you’ll take their place!"

He added, "Don’t worry, I will cripple your cultivation and ensure you’re left precisely at the Returning Void Realm."

The Demon Clan members present trembled. Ao Juli, the Demon King, was known to keep his word.

Watching the furious Ao Juli leave, the remaining Demon Clan members glanced at each other. One said, "Everyone, it’s time to have the prodigies from our own clans take action. Otherwise, we’ll really be the ones going in."

"Agreed."

「City Lord Mansion」

Seeing the Bibo Beasts Mo Yang brought back, Wu Qiyan still found it hard to believe. "Are you saying these were brought from Chen Jiuge?"

Mo Yang arched an eyebrow, pleased. "Of course. What good would come from telling such an easily disproven lie?"

Incredible, incredible! To enhance the Bibo Beasts’ strength so much in such a short time! It seems Chen Jiuge isn’t some naive Spirit Beast Breeding Master, but a truly mature and experienced one, Wu Qiyan thought in amazement. He’s only at the Mahayana stage, yet his breeding techniques... ordinary True Immortals couldn’t match them. No, that’s not right—perhaps even Heavenly Immortals fall short!

Mo Yang’s mood brightened considerably at Wu Qiyan’s increasingly shocked expression. It was satisfying to see the perpetually stern old man wear such a look.

"And there’s something even more impressive," Mo Yang said, releasing the three Mutant Bibo Beasts.

Wu Qiyan was shocked numb. Is this really a Mahayana cultivator? Not some Spirit Beast Breeding Master at the Heavenly Immortal realm or higher, playing a joke on me? he wondered.

"Old man, you’ll have to send another batch of Spiritual Beasts. And the Merit reward for them will have to be top-tier."

"That goes without saying; I’ll take care of it. I’ll also add extra Merit for the Mutant Spiritual Beasts. By the way, didn’t his Spiritual Beasts go into the Return to Void and Mahayana Hunting Grounds alone? I’ll assign some guards from the City Lord Mansion to keep an eye on them, just to prevent any accidents," Wu Qiyan said, glancing sidelong at Mo Yang.

"Don’t look at me like that; I’m just the messenger," Mo Yang shrugged.

Wu Qiyan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Actually, your sister following Chen Jiuge might be the right choice. I can’t speak to his cultivation talent, but his Spirit Beast Breeding ability is very strong. At least your sister’s growth won’t be limited."

Mo Yang paused. Turning his back, a faint smile touched his lips as he said, "Of course, I know. Otherwise, on what basis would he form a Contract with my sister?"

Wu Qiyan gazed at Mo Yang’s back for a long moment, then began to allocate the Spiritual Beasts and make the previously discussed arrangements for Chen Jiuge.

At that moment, Chen Jiuge was drinking the tea Mo Yu had clumsily brewed. He looked at Mo Yu, who was watching him with an expectant gaze. Swallowing the bitter and flavorless Spiritual Tea, Chen Jiuge praised, "Not bad at all."

"Really? Then I’ll brew another pot!" Mo Yu, elated, immediately began to prepare the next pot of Spiritual Tea.

Chen Jiuge felt a sense of helplessness watching her.

After Yue Meng had introduced Mo Yu to the Spiritual Beasts, Mo Yu suddenly felt as if she was incapable of doing anything. She feared being abandoned by Chen Jiuge for her incompetence, a fear that intensified after she coincidentally saw Chen Jiuge brewing tea.

Seeing how simple brewing tea appeared, Mo Yu had eagerly volunteered, claiming she could do it too. This led to the current scenario.

Chen Jiuge didn’t have the heart to dampen Mo Yu’s enthusiasm. Oh well, he thought, it’s just a few sips of bitter tea, right?

Just as Mo Yu finished preparing the tea, Wu Qiyan arrived with a new batch of Spiritual Beasts.

Looking at the newly assigned tasks, Chen Jiuge’s gaze shifted back and forth between Wu Qiyan and the mission details.

"What’s wrong? Does my old face have flowers on it?" Wu Qiyan finally asked, unable to bear Chen Jiuge’s scrutiny any longer.

Chen Jiuge chuckled awkwardly. "No, not at all, Elder Wu. It’s just... the reward for this task seems a bit off, doesn’t it? It’s increased severalfold."

A rare smile touched Wu Qiyan’s stern face. "This is the standard reward for a Spirit Beast Breeding Master of your caliber. You’ve proven your ability, so I naturally have to provide the corresponding compensation. Continue to nurture the Spiritual Beasts well."

"Oh, and about those Spiritual Beasts of yours that entered the Hunting Grounds alone," Wu Qiyan added before leaving, "I’ve already arranged for people to watch over them, so you don’t need to worry too much."

Clutching the mission details, Chen Jiuge felt a surge of gratitude. Elder Wu, I definitely won’t let you down, he silently vowed.

Chen Jiuge had no idea what a shock his decision would be to Elder Wu.
