Chapter 835: Chapter 1: The Disciple Initiation Ceremony_5 Chapter 835: Chapter 1: The Disciple Initiation Ceremony_5 While lost in thought, Shen Fu soon spotted a round-headed, furry little black beast, darting out from the forest.
Upon seeing Shen Fu, it clearly paused in surprise.
And in that moment of distraction, another figure leaped out from behind the trees.
The figure was not tall, with two skyward-pointing goat horn buns, rosy lips, white teeth, and a body brimming with vital blood energy.
It was a mischievous child of about seven or eight.
Shen Fu initially paid no attention, but when he saw the childâs face, he could not help but be slightly taken aback.
Images of his senior brother involuntarily flashed through his mind.
...
âHe looks similar!â
But almost immediately, he shook his head slightly.
âI must be bewitched!â
Although he was well aware of his senior brotherâs exceptional talent,
no matter how talented, this place was still over a hundred thousand li away from Yan State.
Moreover, in the entire Fenglin Continent, besides the primitive Demonic Sect, Jin was one of only two top forces.
As one of the major sects within, it was basically impossible for his senior brother to join such a sect like the Wanxiang Sect.

The child was also wary upon seeing him,
quickly whispering to the round-headed little beast:
âYaya!
Yaya!
Come here quickly!â
The round-headed little beast immediately sprang into action, jumping next to the mischievous child, standing in front of him defensively, and staring at Shen Fu with a guarded expression.
A hint of amusement flashed in Shen Fuâs eyes as he rarely initiated conversation,
âThis Spirit Beast is quite interesting, whatâs its name?â
The child, however, cast a guarded look at Shen Fu and shook his head, âMy mom told me not to talk to strangers, and you donât look like youâre from our Wanxiang Sect.
Yaya, letâs go, we must hide well so Fatty Xi doesnât find us!â
With that, he ran directly into the woods.
âQuite a vigilant child.â
Shen Fu sighed, but made no attempt to hold him back.
He watched the child leave.
He had arrived in high spirits, and now left with his excitement fading.
He was about to return, but suddenly, he heard an urgent cry for help.
âIs that the boy!?â
Shen Fu was startled and immediately flew deep into the forest.
Instantly sensing the boyâs aura, he didnât hesitate to dash forward rapidly.
However, the moment he saw the boy, he paused in astonishment.
The boy was crouched on a thick tree branch, incessantly crying for help, attracting a Class II face-owl over.
Meanwhile, the little black beast was stealthily sneaking into the unsuspecting owlâs nest, stuffing pine nuts and fruits into its fur.
Seeing this scene, Shen Fu couldnât help but feel both annoyed and amused.
âThis kid really has guts.â
He was about to leave.
But as his gaze swept over the little black beast, his expression suddenly changed!
âThat wonât do!â
The black beast glanced at the eggs in the nest and greedily decided to take them as well.
And at the very moment it touched the eggs, the face-owl instantly noticed the disturbance.
The face-owlâs previously calm human-like face now displayed furious rage, pecking viciously toward the boy who was distracting it!
Shen Fuâs expression shifted as a Blood Hand flew out from his sleeve, ready to grab the boy.
But in the next instant, Shen Fuâs expression changed dramatically!
From beneath the huge tree, a thick and lengthy giant blue tongue shot out, circling the boy before his Blood Hand could reach, and retracted.
âDemonic beast!â
Shen Fu bellowed without hesitation and immediately plunged down toward the source of the tongue!
But at that moment,
Shen Fuâs pupils involuntarily shrank!
From the fallen leaves near the treeâs roots, a massive body of several dozen zhang in length slowly raised its head, its light brown vertical pupils staring at him, revealing a dangerously flashing gaze.
âA Class III upper-grade Spirit Beast?!â
He instinctively stopped in his tracks, his face profoundly serious.
The blood light on his body surged rapidly.
What astonished him was,
the next moment, the enormous creature slightly opened its mouth, and the boy who had been swept into the mouth appeared unharmed from the tongue.
The boy looked at Shen Fu with wide-eyed curiosity, his eyes twinkling with cleverness:
âEhĂąâŹÂŠ were you just about to save me?â
For a moment, Shen Fu didnât know what to say.
Whose mischievous child was this?
But anyone willing to let a Class III upper-grade Spirit Beast protect their child must have parents of significant status and cultivation.
After hesitating for a moment, Shen Fu shook his head slightly:
âIt seems you donât need it.â
He then quickly flew off towards the woods.
However, he was swiftly blocked by the massive body.
The boy, perched atop the massive Lizardâs head, excitedly said,
âDonât go, you donât look like a bad person.
Why donât we play hide-and-seek together?
My friends and you, itâll be super fun!â
Shen Fu frown slightly, rejecting him coldly:
âGo play with your friends.â
Having said that, he flew quickly away into the distance.
A tinge of disappointment flashed in the boyâs eyes.
Although Shen Fu noticed this, he didnât stop.
As an invited guest to the Wanxiang Sectâs personal disciple ceremony, and being a disciple of the Demon Sect, it was better to stay reserved.
Just then,
a voice came from the distant woods:
âWang Yiâan, itâs been so long, why havenât you hidden yet!â
âYi AnĂąâŹÂŠ it seems all parents in the world are the same, Cultivators are no exceptionâŠâ
Hearing this name, Shen Fu mused to himself.
But the next moment, he froze on the spot.
âWang YiâanĂąâŹÂŠ His surname is Wang?!â
âWhat a coincidence?â
