Chapter 18

Calculating the time, Madam’s manic period should have passed. I’ll go and see if the Scarlet Python that carries my bloodline has appeared.

After thinking for a moment, Scarlet Flame Demon King slowly left.

…

In the underground cave, after an hour of assessment, the Chen family gathered together again.

“Family Head, I agree with your idea of collecting martial arts. In my opinion, not only are offensive martial arts and movement techniques equally important, but defensive martial arts are also important.”

Chen Xuan covered his slightly purple cheeks with a hateful expression.

“What the First Elder said is true. It’s not just martial arts. The cultivation of your natal beast and the equipment on your spiritual artifacts have to be displayed openly.” Chen Yang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Later, they looked at each other and sighed together.

“Alas!”

“Tell me, how did you all fail?” Chen Yang looked at everyone.

“I’ll go first. Mine is the inheritance of a blacksmith. However, before accepting the inheritance, I have to undergo a small test. That is to defeat a puppet at the peak of Qi Refinement.”

“I was puzzled. Why does an alchemist have to check his own strength? In the end, people say that if you can’t even swing a hammer, how can you become a grandmaster refiner?”

“Mine is even more ridiculous. The alchemist assessment said that if your strength is not strong, what if your furnace explodes in the future?”

“My inheritance of an array master is similar…”

After hearing everyone’s complaints, Chen Yang nodded. “In that case, in the first round of inheritance, we have to defeat the puppets at the peak of Qi Refinement before we can accept the inheritance.”

“In that case, the first round of inheritance isn’t too precious. Our Chen family should be able to digest it.”

“Why don’t we go back and increase our strength first? In any case, the strength of this puppet won’t change. When we become stronger, we can accept this first round of inheritance,” Chen Xuan suggested.

Chen Xuan’s words caught Chen Yang’s attention. Only then did I realize that even the First Elder who broke through the Genesis Realm had failed.

Sensing Chen Xuan’s slightly suspicious gaze, Chen Xuan blushed and stammered, “Family Head, you know me.”

Although I’ve broken through to the Genesis Realm, I don’t have good martial arts, hence I can’t unleash the advantage of being a Genesis Realm expert.”

“Besides, my natal beast is only at the late-stage of level one. It’s useless.”

“But Family Head, don’t worry. When I return, I will definitely find a powerful martial art. At that time, the one lying on the ground will be that puppet.”

A smile appeared on Chen Yang’s face. “First Elder, I didn’t say anything.”

When Chen Xuan heard this, his face turned even redder. He waved his hand repeatedly. “Go back, go back. Our families must be waiting anxiously.”

Immediately, after a discussion, they decided to go back and rest before returning to accept the inheritance.

At the same time, other than Chen Yang and Chen Xuan, the others had all sworn an oath not to tell outsiders about this place.

As for the Chen family, they could only be informed after the family’s assessment and with the approval of the family head.

“Senior, we know that our strength is low. We plan to go back and increase our strength first before coming back for the assessment.”

Before leaving, Chen Yang asked the giant moth for instructions. If he left without permission, who knew what would happen?

“Take the map. It records the entrance to the maze and the way to enter. You can increase your strength without worry. I’ve already waited for so long. A few more years won’t make a difference.”

Accompanied by a light sound, a map floated in front of Chen Yang.

After putting away the map, Chen Yang cupped his hands at the giant moth again. “Senior, we’ll take our leave!”

Then, under Chen Yang’s lead, the Chen family left the dome one after another and entered the tunnel, slowly leaving the land of inheritance.

After there was no one around, a light voice sounded again, “Soon, it won’t be long before I break free from the shackles of this damn place.”

“Those bastards at the Cliff of Beasts must be surprised that I’m still alive. Moo…”

Outside the ruins, looking at the scorching sun above his head, Chen Yang wanted to roar to vent his excitement.

“Finally out!”

In the end, Chen Yang couldn’t help but roar.

Although there were many treasures in this land of inheritance, there was a huge beast staring at them from above. This treasure did not feel that good anymore.

“Everyone, rest up. Let’s leave quickly. Otherwise, that giant snake will probably come again.” Chen Yang did not know that the Spirit Eye Python had already been killed, so he immediately urged everyone to leave.

Immediately, under Chen Yang’s lead, the Chen family urged their Gale Wolves to quickly escape.

“Eh? Family Head Chen, you’re still alive?”

After walking for about ten miles or so, Chen Yang bumped into someone he knew. He looked up and saw that not far to his right was the group led by the Song family.

“Hmph! This guy is quite lucky!” Seeing Chen Yang and the others return, Gongsun Miao snorted coldly and turned his head away.

Hearing Family Head Song call him, Chen Yang hurriedly urged the Gale Wolf forward. “Family Head Song, you don’t know what we encountered. Good lord, it’s a Demon Venerable-level demon beast!”

“If that demon beast hadn’t stopped chasing us, I probably wouldn’t have been able to see you again.”

Hearing Chen Yang’s sobbing voice, Family Head Song grinned awkwardly.

Good lord, this person’s luck was so different from others. On their side, the Spirit Eye Python was fighting desperately, while on Chen Yang’s side, the Spirit Eye Python could not even be bothered to chase after them.

Family Head Song did not doubt Chen Yang’s words. After all, the Chen family was not the first family to escape.

The Gongsun family, the Mo family, and the Lin family also stopped chasing after the Spirit Eye Python.

However, what Family Head Song did not know was that the Spirit Eye Python did not intend to let the Chen family off. It was just that it was separated by the maze and had no choice but to give up. It was still different from the other families.

“It’s good that we survived. The various families suffered casualties during this hunt. The people of Nanyang County will not forget us.”

“When we get back, I’ll report this to the county governor and have him report this to the state magistrate to reward everyone.”

Seeing that Chen Yang was still planning to complain,Family Head Song quickly comforted him.

“Thank you, Family Head Song!” Immediately, all the family heads thanked him. This was a pleasant surprise. Family Head Song was really a good person.

Under the lead of the Song family, the group rushed back. They finally returned to the family before the end of the year and did not miss the ancestral worship ceremony.

However, what these families did not know was that the Scarlet Flame Demon King arrived here a few days after they left.

Looking at the remains of the Spirit Eye Python, the Scarlet Flame Demon King roared at the sky. An aura that swept out for hundreds of miles made the demon beasts in the Endless Mountains tremble.

Then, the Scarlet Flame Demon King came to the Spirit Eye Python Cave. After carefully identifying the aura left behind, a bloodthirsty look flowed in the Scarlet Flame Demon King’s beast eyes.

Immediately, the Scarlet Flame Demon King turned around and left.
