Chapter 510

Inside Jiulian City, Ye Chenyin’s already gloomy face grew even darker.

“You unfilial son, truly unfilial.”

“So many people painstakingly planned a script for you—why can’t you just follow the rules and stick to the script?”

“Normally, if you want to attend the disciple acceptance ceremony, isn’t it because you want to use this chance to apprentice under a famous master and soar to greatness from there?”

“What does it mean to be a famous master? That must be the sect leader, the strongest person in a sect.”

“If the sect leader won’t accept you as a disciple, what else do you want?”

Ye Chenyin suppressed the fire in his heart and asked in a deep voice, “What exactly is going on?”

Zhao Jia hurriedly recounted the situation briefly.

They wanted to consult the Demon Lord while everything was still unsettled, to decide how the next plan should proceed.

Should they force the Young Master to apprentice under Huangfu Jin?

Or should they go with the flow and ignore everything?

Zhao Jia was very anxious, watching the situation on the scene while waiting for an answer.

To buy time, the sect leader of Zhutiangfang, Huangfu Jin, had been pretending to ponder deeply for a long while.

If he kept pretending, people might think he was a fool.

So really, he couldn’t wait any longer.

Just as Zhao Jia was considering whether to urge him, a loud slap suddenly sounded inside the communication stone.

Zhao Jia’s eyelids twitched wildly at the sound.

Then the voice of the Demon Lord’s wife, Yue Xing’er, rang out.

“You just said, Yu’er wants to apprentice under that female elder. Is that female elder beautiful?”

Zhao Jia trembled and replied, “Reporting to Madam, that female elder is exceptionally {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} beautiful.”

Yue Xing’er immediately laughed out loud.

“Two idiots, what’s there to even think about?”

“Of course my Yu’er is having her first stirrings of love, and she’s taken a fancy to that female elder.”

“Why do you always have that gloomy face? Go away.”

Listening to the voice insulting the Demon Lord, Zhao Jia trembled all over and tried to distance himself from the communication stone as much as possible.

Could he really listen to this?

Should he just crush the communication stone now and be wise?

After all, the Demon Lord certainly wouldn’t want outsiders to know about their family matters.

But before Zhao Jia could move, Yue Xing’er’s voice came again: “When you have time, use the shadow recording stone to capture that female elder’s appearance and send it to me.”

“At once!”

After replying, Zhao Jia immediately returned to the inner court of Zhutiangfang.

He transmitted to Huangfu Jin, who was still pretending to think deeply: “Follow the Young Master’s wishes! Let him have whatever he wants!”

The latter immediately let out a long, coarse breath.

“No need to keep pretending anymore, it’s really exhausting!”

Huangfu Jin said in a deep voice, “Since Elder Pei and this disciple are so compatible, I’ll just let it happen.”

“Congratulations, Elder Pei!”

Pei Runzhu’s expression was calm as she nodded slightly.

Ye Yu also seemed to sense something and looked back at Zhao Jia.

He noticed the fat man’s pale face, as if he had just experienced something terrifying.

Half an hour later.

The disciple acceptance ceremony concluded successfully.

Huangfu Jin immediately found Pei Runzhu, said a few words briefly, then came to Ye Yu.

He introduced himself: “I am Huangfu Jin, sect leader of Zhutiangfang. If you need anything in this place, you can come to me.”

Hearing this, Ye Yu instantly became interested.

He smiled and said, “Thank you for your kindness, Sect Leader. It’s strange, I don’t know why, but I feel a strong affinity with you, as if we are destined. Why not be friends?”

Zhao Jia standing nearby twitched his eyelids wildly.

“Young Master, are you crazy?”

At the same time, Pei Runzhu glanced over here.

Huangfu Jin didn’t think much of it.

He just found it amusing.

“I’m good friends with your father, and now you want to be my friend too?”

“Doesn’t that mess up the generations?”

However, in Huangfu Jin’s eyes, Ye Yu was just a youth, and to not kill his enthusiasm, he readily agreed.

“No problem, I’m willing to be your friend!”

Ye Yu’s lips curled up slightly.

Zhao Jia covered his face with one hand, looking at Huangfu Jin with sympathy.

The latter didn’t think twice and turned to leave.

He stepped up and soared into the air. However, just as he reached midair, a demon flood dragon flew past above Zhutiangfang.

Huangfu Jin immediately set his sights on it, thinking that if he could subdue this demon flood dragon as a mount, it would be an excellent choice.

But he didn’t know that the demon flood dragon’s belly was churning violently.

As Huangfu Jin quietly approached, a huge pile of dung suddenly appeared and was blown by the wind to fall perfectly on Huangfu Jin.

Because of the close distance and the sheer surprise, Huangfu Jin was completely covered by the dung.

He screamed miserably as he rapidly fell.

At this moment, the demon pet of Zhutiangfang’s second elder, the Sun-swallowing Dog, was yawning toward the sky.

Suddenly its mouth was completely stuffed.

The Sun-swallowing Dog instinctively bit down hard.

“Ah!!!”

Huangfu Jin’s scream echoed throughout Zhutiangfang.

Then everyone in the inner court of the demon clan saw a very interesting scene.

Huangfu Jin was filthy all over, and the Sun-swallowing Dog was biting tightly on his head.

That scene was utterly ridiculous.

The second elder shouted loudly, “Jinglei, let go quickly! Quick... ugh... ugh!”

Perhaps because the smell of the demon flood dragon dung was so strong, the second elder began vomiting violently before even getting close.

Even Pei Runzhu, who was a bit farther away, frowned slightly.

“Follow me.”

Hearing this, Ye Yu quickly followed.

But a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

“Tsk, tsk, looks like Huangfu Jin has a hard life. Being bitten on the head by a demon pet probably won’t kill him, right?”

“Just don’t know if there’s such a thing as rabies in the demon realm.”

Soon, led by Pei Runzhu, they arrived outside a tall tower in Zhutiangfang.

There, Ye Yu saw the unlucky Golden Core demon from yesterday.

He was very surprised.

“Still not dead?”

Pei Runzhu opened the door of the tall tower and walked inside but left one sentence behind.

“Have your guards wait outside.”

Zhao Jia immediately refused, saying in a deep voice, “Where my master is, I am as well.”

After a moment of thought, Ye Yu spoke softly, “Wait outside.”

“But—”

Zhao Jia wanted to say more but was stopped by Ye Yu’s look.

He could only helplessly give in.

Ye Yu stepped in slowly and suddenly realized that inside the tower were all kinds of books.

By rough estimation, there were at least hundreds of thousands.

Boom!

The tall tower door suddenly closed.

In the darkness, Pei Runzhu’s calm voice came.

“You want to kill me?”
