Chapter 299 - 295: Never Would Have Thought

Uh—

Chen Xuan was stumped.

For now, he really didn’t have a solution, unless he did what he did in the Human Realm before, upgrading Ning Xin’s cultivation technique and passing all his cultivation insights to her.

However... the Skill Points consumed by an Immortal Grade Technique are too many.

There’s truly no room for waste right now.

But looking at Ning Xin’s hopeful face, refuse?

He couldn’t bear it!

So he could only say, "Wait a moment, let me think it over!"

"You promised me!"

Ning Xin quickly said, fearing he might regret it.

"Okay!"

Chen Xuan shook his head and smiled, "I promised you, I will definitely find a way!"

He was, after all, speaking the truth.

After all, if Ning Xin’s power increased, he could gain more Skill Points.

"Sister Xin, you don’t need to worry, he will surely find a way!"

Only now did Luan Ying dare to speak, after all her cultivation speed was so fast, it was somewhat inappropriate to speak earlier.

"I know, Little Sister Luan, you don’t have to worry about anything, your fast cultivation speed is a good thing. Once you are stronger, you can help him, no need to overthink!"

Ning Xin certainly saw through her concerns.

Saying things out might be better, rather than keeping them in the heart, and Luan Ying always being cautious, she didn’t feel good about that.

"Got it, Sister Xin!"

Luan Ying stuck out her tongue, looking very playful.

"That’s better, say whatever you have in mind, no need to hide it!"

Chen Xuan hugged one with each hand, feeling very satisfied.

He also sighed in his heart.

Speaking of nothing else, he’s indeed very fortunate, his women always get along harmoniously, never causing him any trouble.

Of course,

He knew in his heart too.

In the Human Realm, there was Su Wanqiu, managing the family affairs.

And in the Supreme Domain, there was Ning Xin.

Having them both is truly his fortune earned from past lives.

...

A few days passed by once more.

Within Molan Mansion, aside from the Western Region still having uprisings, other areas had mostly quieted down, with only a few occurrences.

The most serious incidents were mere thefts.

However, Tian Bo’s territory became even more chaotic than before.

"Bang, bang!"

Within the mansion, Tian Bo threw whatever he could see, leaving the entire hall in disarray.

The servants outside were trembling with fear.

Even the fair young man from last time stood silently on the side, not daring to say a word.

Tian Bo’s face was frighteningly sullen.

He had personally visited the Peng Family, humbled himself, gave Peng Yuan enough face, but didn’t expect this kind of result.

"Hmph!"

He snorted coldly, squinting his eyes.

"How dare you treat me like a monkey? Then don’t blame me for being impolite!"

At this moment, a sly smile appeared on Tian Bo’s lips.

Just right, it’s been days since he last ’hunted’, he might as well start with those from the Peng Family.

As he thought of this, his peripheral vision caught sight of the young man nearby, revealing a look of disdain between his brows, "Get out, you’re an eyesore standing there!"

"Yes, sir!"

The man dared not say more, saluted, and promptly walked outside.

"Stop!"

Just as he reached the door, Tian Bo called out to him.

The man cautiously turned around, lowered his head, and asked in a soft voice, "Is there anything else, sir?"

"Don’t show yourself in front of me again! But... take care of yourself, understood?"

He certainly understood Tian Bo’s words.

He nodded quickly, "I understand, thank you, sir!"

Leaving Tian Mansion.

The man felt an inexplicable sense of relief in his heart.

"This life is as good as saved!"

"Hehe!"

He chuckled bitterly in his heart, after serving him for so long, to be abandoned just like that in the end.

But... it’s also good!

At least he’s free now.

In fact, Tian Bo had been pretty good to him before, even rewarding him with quite a few things.

It’s just that lately... the Western Region is too chaotic, causing him much frustration.

His mood became unpredictable.

And...

"Someone’s going to be eaten!"

The man spoke quietly, his expression strange, with some regret, but also with some excitement.

...

"Father, is it really okay to do this?"

Peng He asked with some concern.

After all, other places had already calmed down a lot, only rarely having sporadic troubles, but the Western Region... it has been utterly chaotic these days.

Arson, murder, robbery... are rampant.

With just Tian Bo’s handful of men, there’s no way they could handle it all.

Moreover, someone is always watching their movements.

Almost every time, they miss catching anyone.

"No problem!"

Peng Yuan sat calmly at the top.

"By the way, were the events this time incited by those families behind the scenes?"

"Yes! Mostly!"

Peng He nodded, "However... some forces actually fought for territory, but those families, resentful about the Three Judicial Departments matter, also tacitly approved of these forces’ actions."

"But in the past few days Zongzheng has been visiting several major families, so... things have calmed down significantly now."

"Understood!"

Peng Yuan knew that Zongzheng must have promised them something.

Otherwise, those families wouldn’t have backed down so easily.

Since that’s the case.....

"Then let’s wait for Zongzheng to come to the Peng Family and discuss!"

His Peng Family ranks among the top ten in the Molan Mansion, since benefits were promised to them, his Peng Family definitely deserves a share as well.

Just like that.

"That Tian Bo..."

Peng He looked at him with a clear meaning, afraid that he would come to the Peng Family looking for trouble.

"Hehe!"

Peng Yuan sneered, his eyes filled with disdain, "Just a mere Baiyi, there’s nothing to be afraid of. Give him face and call him Tian Baiyi; without that, he’s just a Chief Constable in dog skin!"

What’s more, a mere Late-Stage Immortal Grade, if he’s disobedient, find a chance to wipe him out.

Peng Yuan was also a ruthless person.

A hundred years ago, the Peng Family was just a small clan.

But relying on his Martial Dao talent and ruthlessness, he brought the Peng Family to its current position in a hundred years.

"Alright, you don’t have to worry about this matter. I’ve already cultivated to the Late-Stage Immortal Grade!"

Peng Yuan saw that he still looked a bit worried.

He was very dissatisfied in his heart.

If Peng He weren’t his only son, he would have considered replacing him as Young Master long ago.

He’s so ruthless himself, how did he sire such a weak thing.

If it weren’t for sensing his own bloodline, he would have suspected he wasn’t his offspring.

"Yes, father!"

Peng He slightly bowed and then left the hall, heading to his cultivation room.

"What benefits did Zongzheng promise those old guys?"

"To make them let go of their previous grievances!"

Peng Yuan was quite curious in his heart.

According to his character, it would be better to stir chaos in Molan Mansion. When the Great Yu assessment arrives, the Zongzheng brothers won’t be able to handle it.

By then... their families will have a chance to enter the Three Judicial Departments.

As for whether he’s afraid of the Three Judicial Departments causing trouble for them?

Hehe!

Every year, the tributes he gives to the kings of Great Yu make his heart ache.

But there’s no choice; they need protection.

So no matter how much it costs, it has to be spent.

As long as they don’t touch the taboos of Great Yu, it will be fine.

Not everyone is as foolish as the Yang Family.

Even if the Crane King put a knife to his neck, he wouldn’t do such a thing.

In his view, Yang Mingri is an idiot.

...

Night falls!

The vast Peng Family mansion, except for important places guarded, all the servants were resting.

After all, tomorrow they have to rise early, prepare everything, and wait for the adults in the mansion to wake up.

At this moment, a silhouette suddenly appeared on the roof of an outer building.

With completely restrained energy, laying low, eyes falling on a distant group of guards.

"Such a grand gesture!"

The silhouette sighed in admiration.

The guards were experts of Mid-Stage Immortal Grade.

However....

The silhouette’s eyes showed disdain.

Not to mention Mid-Stage Immortal Grade, even Early-Stage Profound Realm couldn’t discover him.

And that has to do with the Spiritual Treasure he possesses that restrains energy.

It completely restrains his energy, even Spiritual Power can’t detect it.

That’s why so many times he’s ’foraged’ without being discovered even once.

Of course, the Spiritual Treasure has its drawback, namely the absence of any attack power.

But this doesn’t affect him much; unless necessary, he rarely leaves this city.

Possessing Late-Stage Immortal Grade strength!

Unless surrounded and attacked, he has nothing to fear.

Of course, if it’s Profound Realm, then he has no choice.

If he died?

Then the one who killed him wouldn’t live either!

Everyone has a trump card!

"Seems to be in the room on the far left!"

Then his figure flashed, the silhouette perfectly blended into the night sky, even at a close distance would probably be hard to spot.

"Yo... not bad!"

The silhouette’s gaze through the crack saw Peng He cultivating in the room, laughing silently in his heart.

"This little face, so white and smooth!"

"Just don’t know... if he can withstand the torment of this old man!"

"Peng Yuan, Peng Yuan, wonder what expression you’ll have when you find out, really want to see it firsthand!"

"Hmph!"

"Let you know the consequences of offending me, Tian Bo!"

That’s right!

The first target Tian Bo wanted to harm was Peng He.

Peng Yuan’s only son.

Only to see Tian Bo swallow a red pill, the next moment, a red smoke exhaled from his mouth, slipped through the crack into the room.

Moments later!

Just saw Peng He, who was just cultivating, fall directly to the ground, motionless.

"Done!"

Tian Bo’s mouth curved upwards, then his figure flashed, openly and freely walking in through the main door.

Looking at Peng He, who had already passed out.

He was also in a hurry, took out a red flag, moments later, a simple array enveloped the room.

After doing all this, Tian Bo immediately sat aside, picked up the white jade teacup from the table, without disdain, directly drank.

"Hmm...."

Shaking his head, very content.

"Alright, time to get to work, don’t know if this little guy can help this old man’s cultivation technique advance further!"

At this moment, Tian Bo was also slightly hopeful.

He developed this habit entirely due to his cultivation technique.

Of course, he didn’t regret it.

After all, if it weren’t for this technique, given his talent, reaching Third Grade would have been the height.

As for Immortal Grade.... it was inconceivable!

But now he has not only cultivated to Late-Stage Immortal Grade, he even has confidence in the Profound Realm.

Moreover, his cultivation technique has a feedback effect.

So some people are willing to make sacrifices.

"Here comes the old man!"

Tian Bo excitedly chanted.

In the next moment....
