Chapter 66: Chapter 66: Starting to Grow Hair
But in reality, from this distance, at this angle, how could Wang Mingyang and his companions not see?
He thought, "Hmm, Chen Pingping really does want to make a sincere transaction. The Primitive Demon God’s arm has already been given to his companion, and what follows is the transaction process."
He believed it.
Bai Yunfei believed it too. After the initial shock, he quickly stored away the Primitive Demon God’s arm. The rage that had filled him moments before dissipated without him realizing.
His gaze was complex—no, it was filled with guilt.
Such a good person!
Just because Chen Pingping had carelessly mentioned his own name, Bai Yunfei had actually wanted to kill him. It was truly... unreasonable...
Chen Pingping had only made a small mistake that any average person could make.
Moreover, the one chasing Bai Yunfei was not Chen Pingping.
As he contemplated this, the guilt in Bai Yunfei’s heart deepened. When he looked at Chen Pingping, his eyes were filled with emotion. "Brother Chen!"
"We hit it off at first sight, as if we were true brothers, so let’s forgo the formalities. When we return to the Heaven Martial continent, I’ll treat you to a drink," Chen Pingping said earnestly.
"Alright!" Bai Yunfei agreed solemnly.
At this moment, Wang Mingyang approached. "Brother Chen, it’s done."
Chen Pingping nodded. "I know. I’ll be right there after a few more words with Brother Bai." After responding to Wang Mingyang, he continued, "Brother Bai, I still have some things to take care of. I’ll come find you after that. Don’t worry, they won’t touch you, not with me here."
I’ll be damned...
This statement once again breached Bai Yunfei’s defenses, and his feelings of gratitude soared.
Watching Chen Pingping’s retreating figure, he felt like slapping himself. How despicable! He had just been thinking about killing him, yet the man held no grudges and had even entrusted him with the precious body of the Primitive Demon God.
For a moment, Bai Yunfei was choked up.
Luo Sangzi frowned tightly. "Didn’t you notice that this kid has an unusual relationship with the Wilderness tribe?"
Bai Yunfei lifted his head. "There’s something, but I trust Brother Chen."
"So are we still going to kill him?" Luo Sangzi asked, speechless.
"Let’s not kill him for now. One more person shouldn’t be a big problem," Bai Yunfei said.
On this side, after Wang Mingyang’s verification, Chen Pingping had indeed handed over the Primitive Demon God’s arm to his companion. Only then did the higher-ups of Bright Moon Palace give him what he wanted in full.
Chen Pingping received the Ancient Bloodstone and asked, "Your Bright Moon Palace is one of the Eighteen Royal Clans, famous and reputable. You wouldn’t go back on your word, would you? You wouldn’t harm my friends, would you?"
Wang Mingyang spoke up, "Of course not." The thought of soon acquiring that arm made him uncontrollably excited. As for the myriad details, who cared?
The Elder, seeing Chen Pingping’s concern for his companion, had no remaining doubts. He smiled and said, "You may leave now. If Daoist Chen wishes to come back for a visit in the future, Bright Moon Palace will certainly treat Daoist Chen with the highest regard."
Chen Pingping nodded. "Sure thing! I’m off then, to wait for my companions outside."
"Of course! They will leave here safely," Zhang Lai said with a smile.
After leaving the mansion, Eight Treasures Chicken and Earth Chicken couldn’t hold back anymore and burst into cackles.
Eight Treasures Chicken almost laughed himself into spasms. "These people of the royal clan are so foolish, hahaha."
Indeed, any normal person here, upon a moment’s thought, could have guessed the problem.
Whether Bai Yunfei was his companion had been evident from the beginning. Poor Wang Mingyang must have been blinded by the arm of the Primitive Demon God.
It was the same with the higher-ups of Bright Moon Palace.
Earth Chicken became increasingly agitated. Ancient Bloodstone! she cried out in her heart.
"We need to get out of here first. Once they discover the arm is fake, we won’t be able to escape," Chen Pingping glanced back and quickly strode away, soon leaving the Ancient City far behind.
Back at the mansion, in the courtyard.
A group of Bright Moon Palace’s high-ranking powerhouses arrived, led by the Elder. He stared intently at Bai Yunfei and demanded, "Where’s the arm? We’ve already given your companion what he wanted."
Bai Yunfei: "???"
In a deserted mountain area, already far from that Ancient City.
Chen Pingping took out the Ancient Bloodstone, admiring it with clearly piqued interest. The stone was the size of a fist, bright red throughout, with an extremely rich Vitality Power flowing inside.
He even sensed a consciousness within.
His face showed shock. "Ancient Phoenix?"
Earth Chicken looked on eagerly.
After a long while...
Chen Pingping finally threw the Ancient Bloodstone over to her, saying, "Cultivate well." He stood up, walked to a high mountain, and gazed at the vast lands and rivers in the distance.
This was just the first Ancient Bloodstone; it probably wouldn’t even allow her to reach the first phase of evolution.
So difficult!
Because Earth Chicken’s system panel didn’t rely on a fixed number of days for progression, this meant her growth was even more stringent than that of Lao Huang and Hei.
She needed opportunities; she needed to feed.
And all of these required him, her master, to hustle around, acting as both father and mother.
After staying in the mountains for several days, Earth Chicken successfully integrated the Ancient Bloodstone. She completed a small segment of evolution, greatly deepening her understanding of Arrays and seals.
Not only that, but she also received a portion of an incomplete inheritance from the Ancient Bloodstone, one left by the Ancient Phoenix itself.
Earth Chicken was incredibly excited.
System notification: Descendant of the Ancient Phoenix completed the first stage of evolution. Reward: fifty years of cultivation, ten fifth-level Spirit Pills, ten fifth-level Spiritual Medicines, one piece of raw material for a King Tao Divine Weapon.
As expected!
Chen Pingping examined Earth Chicken, scrutinizing her for quite some time before he noticed the changes in her. Hmm, she had grown quite a few fluffy feathers.
With contentment, he said, "Finally starting to grow feathers."
Upon hearing this, Earth Chicken grew exasperated and leaped up. Weren’t you the one who plucked my feathers?! she cursed madly in her heart.
WOOF WOOF WOOF!
Hei, the little black dog, circled around her, also sizing her up.
Eight Treasures Chicken, however, started to pay attention to this little dog. It seemed no different from an ordinary dog, yet the chicken could always sense an elusive Sword Intent emanating from Hei.
Is this normal?
Hmm?
Chen Pingping suddenly raised his head and said, "Someone’s coming; we must leave." With that, he waved his arm and dashed toward the distance with his three little pets.
Not long after, Mo Rufeng and many strong members of the Wilderness tribe arrived. Seeing the traces left on the ground, Mo Rufeng gritted his teeth and said, "We’re a step too late."
After he left, Bai Yunfei and Luo Sangzi also arrived. They had escaped from the Ancient City by the skin of their teeth and pursued him this far. Closely examining the traces on the ground, Bai Yunfei, his face fierce, roared, "Chen Pingping, I’m going to kill you!"
To think he had been so moved, to think he had believed he had wronged Chen Pingping.
Little did he know, this had all been Chen Pingping’s scheme.
What Primitive Demon God’s arm? When he opened it, it was just a seal containing pitch-black Demonic Qi, with no arm inside at all.
He was dumbfounded on the spot.
The people from Bright Moon Palace were also dumbfounded, speechless with shock.
If Luo Sangzi hadn’t been strong enough to desperately get him out of there, he reckoned he would have been dead with no remains!
And all of this was because of Chen Pingping’s plot.
Damn it!
Bai Yunfei couldn’t contain his rage. "You can’t run away!" he roared.
