"Myriad Beasts Subdue Heart is a very special type of Spirit Grass known as Myriad Beasts Grass. Originally, this grass was a Spiritual Medicine favored by all Demon Beasts. However, it has a very peculiar usage: it can be cultivated by watering it with the blood of ten thousand Demon Beasts, and its soil can be enriched by the heart’s blood of ten thousand Demon Beasts. Once it sprouts, it becomes Myriad Beasts Subdue Heart, and all Demon Beasts will be suppressed by it. Had I not reached the Demon King Realm, I might have died in that instant..."

Tangyuan looked at Lin Feng, still expressing fear as it spoke to him. Reflecting on the recent scene, it was still trembling, showing just how terrified it had been. It never imagined that Lin Feng would extract such an evil treasure from the Secret Realm. This was truly frightening. If it were to disobey in the future, Lin Feng wouldn’t need to do much—merely bringing out the Myriad Beasts Subdue Heart would suffice.

Upon hearing Tangyuan’s words, Lin Feng and Tao Tao’s eyes brightened instantly. They looked at each other and nodded in understanding, realizing why there was a red mountain in the Secret Realm—it was formed by the blood of ten thousand Demon Beasts! The intense sinister aura they felt in that realm came from the resentment of ten thousand beasts. If that place weren’t sinister, it would be strange!

Suddenly, Tao Tao was reminded of something. He promptly took out the egg he had obtained from the Secret Realm and asked Tangyuan, "Tangyuan, do you know which Demon Beast’s egg this is?"

Upon hearing this, Tangyuan swiftly hopped to Tao Tao’s side, seriously examining the egg, which was even larger than its own body. Seemingly recalling something, it opened its mouth and spat out a book, rapidly flipping through the pages. Yet, after turning through it, Tangyuan failed to find what it was looking for.

After swallowing the book back, Tangyuan spat out another book and began flipping through it...

Once it had flipped through five or six books, Tangyuan finally spoke to Lin Feng and Tao Tao, "I don’t know what kind of egg this is, but I know one thing: this egg is extraordinary, and the aura it exudes greatly suppresses me. I believe the Demon Beast inside is unimaginable. However, it seems to have been tainted by the sinister aura of Myriad Beasts Subdue Heart; hatching it again will be challenging..."

Gazing at Lin Feng and Tao Tao, Tangyuan earnestly gave its response, its tiny eyes fixed on the egg, filled with curiosity. It was puzzled as to how the egg had ended up with Lin Feng and Tao Tao, and what experiences had gotten them Myriad Beasts Subdue Heart and this peculiar egg.

Upon hearing Tangyuan’s remarks, Tao Tao put the egg away, preparing to take Tangyuan and Lin Feng to the market. Just then, Tangyuan’s eyes suddenly darted to the bed where Tao Tao had previously slept, and with a terrified look, it alternately glanced at Lin Feng and Tao Tao.

"Oh my god, Boss, since when did you two start living together?" Tangyuan’s expression was utterly dramatic, eyes wide as though it couldn’t believe the situation, its little paws covering its mouth as if to avoid uttering any further remarks...

"Bang!"

Before Lin Feng could say anything, Tao Tao suddenly rushed to Tangyuan’s side, giving it a flick with her fingers, exclaiming, "What nonsense are you talking? I’m still pure like jade!"

Seeing this situation, Lin Feng shook his head with a smile, speechless; Tangyuan was awake, and life around them was no longer dull. Yet at that moment, Tangyuan was like a dog, sniffing the air, uttering shocking things!

"Ah, I smell it. Tao Tao, you definitely haven’t... but there’s a strong scent of blood; could it be..."

When Tao Tao heard Tangyuan’s words, she suddenly flipped out before Tangyuan could finish its sentence, grabbing Tangyuan with flushed cheeks and giving it a thrashing!

"Bang!"

"Why are you hitting me?"

"Because you’re talking nonsense! Bang!"

"Ah... it hurts, let me go! I didn’t say anything wrong!"

"Bang! Are you going to stop or not?"

"I really didn’t say anything wrong, it hurts! You’re still a virgin, Demon Beasts are very sensitive to this scent!"

"Ah! Tangyuan, I’m gonna kill you!"

...

Tao Tao beat Tangyuan for an hour, almost stitching Tangyuan’s mouth closed, silently cursing this damn Tangyuan for speaking so candidly in front of Lin Feng—it’s truly embarrassing! Tangyuan, meanwhile, reeled from Tao Tao’s battering, unable to comprehend Tao Tao’s actions; these matters were normal, why the beatdown over them? It felt truly wronged...

"Alright, enough fooling around, let’s get going."

Once the commotion died down, and Tao Tao’s expression improved, Lin Feng decided it was time to end the squabble, calmly stating.

At this moment, Tangyuan immediately jumped onto Lin Feng’s shoulder, looking at him with an incredibly pitiful expression, feeling extremely aggrieved. When Tao Tao saw Tangyuan like this, she became even angrier and was about to take action, but upon seeing Lin Feng’s gaze, she could only forcibly suppress her inner rage.

Just as they were about to leave, Lin Feng and Tao Tao instantly transformed into their appearances from last night, while Tangyuan hid on Lin Feng’s shoulder to avoid certain Secret Techniques. After preparing, Lin Feng and Tao Tao went downstairs to settle the bill and left the inn immediately.

Soon, they arrived at the market and began to stroll through it. As they walked, Lin Feng didn’t discover anything of interest since most of the items were commonplace. However, just as they were about to finish browsing, they encountered an old man in ragged clothes setting up a stall with only one item on it, marked with a price of one thousand Yuan Stones!

Lin Feng wasn’t interested in the old man but was intrigued by the item because only he recognized it. Strangely enough, it was the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms on Earth!

What is going on?

Seeing this, Lin Feng immediately approached the old man and asked, "Is this... the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade?"

The old man, who originally sat like a withered tree, suddenly opened his eyes when he heard Lin Feng’s words, his eyes sharp as lightning as he looked at Lin Feng. It was hard to believe anyone would recognize the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade. When he saw Lin Feng, he was extremely excited but quickly suppressed his emotions. Without saying anything, he immediately put away the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade, gestured to Lin Feng, and walked outside.

Lin Feng, seeing this, didn’t say much and immediately brought Tao Tao along, following him. He also wanted to figure out the old man’s identity and learn more about the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade.

The old man intentionally led Lin Feng away, so he didn’t hurry. He led them to a cluster of low houses, which was apparently Xucheng’s slum area. This made Lin Feng and Tao Tao frown, as if they both thought of something.

After weaving through the low houses for a long time, they finally followed the ragged old man to a small house. It was said to be small because it appeared to be less than ten square meters. The old man did not close the door after entering, and Lin Feng and Tao Tao immediately followed him inside.

"Are you an Ascender from Earth?"

The old man looked at Lin Feng and finally spoke, but his tone was full of excitement. How could he not be excited? After thousands of years, he finally waited for a fellow Earth native, a feeling that made him feel like crying.

"I am!" Lin Feng answered affirmatively. However, as he looked at the old man, he began to examine him seriously. It was then he noticed something—he suddenly realized that the old man before him, with his red face and silver beard, looked much like the door gods from his childhood home decorations. He tentatively asked, "Are you from the Guan family?"

Lin Feng was now really suspicious, guessing that the person in front of him might be a descendant of the legendary Guan Yu. Otherwise, why would he have the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade and resemble a door god? But Lin Feng could only dream of such an encounter. The old man, upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, trembled and tears flowed from his eyes...

"Yunchang greets fellow Daoist. I never imagined that you would ascend at such a young age. To meet a fellow Daoist, Yunchang has no regrets in this life!" The old man’s voice was filled with sorrow, as if he had endured countless tribulations. His face, marked with wrinkles, started to tremble. He was clearly overwhelmed with grief.

Guan Yu, Guan Yunchang!

How could this be possible!

This... this isn’t real, this isn’t real...

...

Looking at the old man before him, claiming to be Guan Yu, Lin Feng stood there dumbfounded. His heart was utterly chaotic. No matter how hard he tried to imagine, he never thought the old man he encountered would be the legendary Guan Yu. How could this be possible? Unless he was seeing ghosts!

"Fellow Daoist, why do you have such an expression? Do you recognize me?" the old man, who claimed to be Guan Yu, asked Lin Feng in confusion.

"Weren’t you... weren’t you killed after your defeat at Mai City?" Lin Feng asked the old man, his eyes wide open. This piece of history was known to everyone, so knowing that Guan Yu had long since died, yet seeing him here, how could he not be surprised!

Upon hearing Lin Feng’s words, the old man immediately laughed and said to Lin Feng, "Indeed, I was defeated at Mai City, and I did die. But later, an Immortal saved me. Since then, I followed the Immortal and no longer appeared in the mortal world. Later, I became adept in Taoism and ascended here. So many years have passed just like that..."

At this point, the old man smiled bitterly and added, "I never imagined that in my lifetime, I would meet an Ascender from Earth. This truly surprises me. I still don’t know the name of the fellow Daoist. Would you kindly tell me your name?"

"I am Lin Feng. I never expected to meet you in this world..." Looking at the old man in front of him, Lin Feng revealed his name. He was genuinely astonished, not expecting to witness Guan Yu in person, the legendary Guan Yu. How could he not be utterly confused...
