Chapter 881 - 881 Background and Truth
881 Background and Truth
“What’s going on?” Yu Wan asked in confusion.
“It’s a Rakshasa,” Yan Jiuchao explained.
“No…” She wasn’t asking about this. Didn’t this little fellow hate to drink goat milk and even throw the milk bottle to the ground? Why did he take the initiative to jump into her arms and drink non-stop after not seeing him for a while?
“Wait, what did you just say he was?” Yu Wan finally realized that her husband seemed to have revealed incredible news.
“It’s a Rakshasa,” Yan Jiuchao said again.
Yu Wan’s chubby body trembled. “Ra… Rakshasa? The Blood Rakshasa of the Sang Family’s forbidden area?”
“That’s right,” Yan Jiuchao said calmly.
Yu Wan looked at Yan Jiuchao in disbelief and confirmed that he was not teasing her. Then, she looked at the little fellow lying in her arms and felt terrible. This skinny little thing… the pitiful little thing that she thought was from a poor family… was actually the terrifying Sang family’s Rakshasa?
She simply did not know how to react. She looked at the Little Rakshasa with a dark expression. “Are you really a Rakshasa? Were you going to eat me just now?”
Yan Jiuchao picked up the Little Rakshasa with one hand.
Little Rakshasa wailed and grabbed the little milk bottle, flapping it at Yu Wan. Yu Wan ruthlessly turned her face away. Little Rakshasa’s appearance was too deceiving. As a mother, she really couldn’t bear to see him like this.
“If you continue to be noisy, I’ll kill you!” Yan Jiuchao said coldly.
It was unknown if it was because he understood Yan Jiuchao’s words or because he felt the huge killing intent from Yan Jiuchao, but Little Rakshasa really obediently stopped moving.
Qing Yan and the disciples of the Chaoyang Hall rushed over. The news of the Sang family’s Rakshasa had long spread in the Chaoyang Hall. The disciples all knew that the Sang family raised such an evil creature, but this was the first time they had seen it with their own eyes. No one expected it to be such a little fellow.
Little Rakshasa was thin and had a thin face. Only his eyes were huge. When he did not emit the aura of a Blood Rakshasa, he looked like an ordinary child or even weaker. However, under this weak skin was power that could destroy the entire Nether Mountain.
Yan Jiuchao threw Little Rakshasa to Qing Yan. Qing Yan hugged Little Rakshasa in his arms in disgust. Little Rakshasa bared his teeth fiercely at Qing Yan, scaring him so much that he almost threw him out!
Yan Jiuchao moved his fingertips and activated the Longevity Technique to condense an internal energy. Little Rakshasa instantly became obedient and stopped moving.
Yan Jiuchao retracted his internal energy and walked back to the Chaoyang Hall. The three little black eggs had already been found by the disciples of the Chaoyang Hall. They were obediently sitting on the threshold, drinking milk and waiting for their mother.
The moment she saw her sons, Yu Wan’s heart seemed to be filled with joy. She could not help but reveal a gentle smile.
Little Rakshasa saw the smile in her eyes and blinked in shock.
Yu Wan walked over and rubbed the heads of the three little black eggs. “Where did you go just now? I’ve been searching for half a day!”
“We’re nearby!” Xiaobao said shamelessly. “If you don’t believe me, ask Er’bao.”
At this moment, he remembered that he had to unite with Er’bao.
Er’bao looked at his mother adorably, intending to use his invincible coquettish and cute skills to fool them of their “crimes”. However, he inadvertently glanced at Little Rakshasa in Qing Yan’s arms. Er’bao’s eyes lit up. “Little brother?”
Xiaobao hummed and stood up. He stood on his tiptoes and looked out. “Where’s Little Brother?”
Qing Yan coughed lightly and quickly flashed into another courtyard with Little Rakshasa in his arms.
Yu Wan understood. She glanced in the direction where Qing Yan had left from the corner of her eye and turned to her sons. “That’s not your younger brother. Alright, it’s getting late. Go take a shower.”
“Okay!”
The three of them nodded in agreement and fought to hold their mother’s hand so that she could bring them to take a shower. The three of them jumped into the room. Yan Jiuchao wanted to change his clothes and returned to his room first.
Without Yan Jiuchao in front of him, Qing Yan could not control Little Rakshasa. Little Rakshasa jumped down from Qing Yan’s arms and flashed into the courtyard where Yu Wan and Yan Jiuchao lived.
Yan Jiuchao went to change his clothes. The three little black eggs sat cross-legged in a small wooden basin in the outer room. Each of them held a small ladle in his hand and clumsily scooped water to pour on his head.
Yu Wan moved a stool over and sat behind the three of them. She took the rose-scented soap and smeared it on their heads. The three of them were already used to this and closed their eyes.
Yu Wan rubbed their heads one by one. Little Rakshasa widened his big eyes in a daze. He raised his little hand and rubbed his head according to Yu Wan’s actions.
“Don’t hit me!” Er’bao turned around and glared at Xiaobao. He said to Yu Wan, “Xiaobao hit me!”
“I didn’t!” Xiaobao shook his head in denial.
Little Rakshasa also shook his head.
Yu Wan said solemnly, “Xiaobao, stop fooling around!”
Xiaobao stuck out his tongue.
Little Rakshasa also stuck out his tongue.
“Close your eyes. The soap will go in later,” Yu Wan said gently to Er’bao.
Er’bao obediently closed his eyes.
When Yan Jiuchao came out after changing into clean clothes, he immediately saw Little Rakshasa peeping outside the door. He glanced at him indifferently and Little Rakshasa immediately felt the pressure of the Longevity Technique. His hair stood on end and he flashed back into Qing Yan’s arms in the courtyard next door.
When Little Rakshasa fought Yan Jiuchao, he briefly released the aura of a Blood Rakshasa. Master Sikong and Sikong Changfeng did not rest and keenly sensed this abnormality. However, the two of them did not know what it was. When they came to the Chaoyang Hall, they were told that it was the Blood Rakshasa.
In the room illuminated by the oil lamp and candlelight, Yan Jiuchao sat at the master seat with a calm expression. Little Rakshasa sat obediently on the center seat. Grandma, Qing Yan, Master Sikong, and Sikong Changfeng were also there.
“Is this… the Rakshasa raised by the Sang Family?” Master Sikong looked at the obedient little thing in disbelief and asked.
It was no wonder that he was so surprised. It was really because he could not sense any Rakshasa’s aura on it. Of course, he did not believe that Yan Jiuchao could not be wrong. Then there were only two possibilities. This Little Rakshasa’s strength was too weak, making it impossible for others to sense its aura. Or perhaps the Little Rakshasa’s strength was too strong and he could already freely retract his aura. If it was the second possibility, this Little Rakshasa was too terrifying.
Yan Jiuchao did not say anything. He only condensed internal energy at his fingertips and punched at Little Rakshasa.
In order to protect himself, Little Rakshasa suddenly soared into the air and released a powerful Blood Rakshasa’s aura. Master Sikong felt his heart tremble and broke out in cold sweat.
After Little Rakshasa dodged the attack, he looked at Yan Jiuchao warily. As if confirming that he had no intention of attacking again, he obediently climbed back onto the bed and sat down.
Although Master Sikong had not personally cultivated the Longevity Technique, he was not unfamiliar with it. Yan Jiuchao did not seem to have used much strength in that attack just now, but no expert present could dodge it. Not only did Little Rakshasa of the Sang family dodge it unscathed, but he also seemed to have the ability to counterattack. He did not do this because he was not Yan Jiuchao’s match after all. He understood that it was useless to counterattack. However, if he encountered a powerful enemy, he would definitely be the last one to die.
To have such ability at such a young age, Master Sikong was simply amazed.
“Was it born a Blood Rakshasa?” Master Sikong asked.
Grandma nodded. “Maybe he was born with it, or maybe… he was fed by the blood of Rakshasa after he was born.”
Master Sikong clenched his fists. “The Sang family is really heartless! They didn’t even let such a young child off!”
Qing Yan frowned and said thoughtfully, “I think… the Sang family might not know of the existence of Little Rakshasa.”
“Oh? What do you mean?” Master Sikong looked at Qing Yan.
Qing Yan recalled and said, “When I went to the forbidden area with Shadow Six and Shadow Thirteen, I heard two experts from the Sang family say, ‘He’s not around’. They didn’t stop, and their movements weren’t serious. They were clearly certain that there were no Rakshasas in the blood pool. When a Rakshasa appeared in the blood pool, I once suspected that they had made a mistake. After thinking about it, I felt that they shouldn’t have made a mistake.”
Grandma pondered for a moment. “The Blood Rakshasa cherishes their blood very much. It’s very difficult for outsiders to force them to use their blood to feed other Rakshasas unless they’re willing. Moreover, the Blood Rakshasa’s territorial awareness is very strong. They won’t allow other Rakshasas to stay in the same place as them.”
“In that case, it…” Qing Yan pointed at Llittle Rakshasa and whispered,” It’s the Blood Rakshasa’s son, right?”
Only when he is the biological son would he be willing to use his blood to feed him. Only then would he be willing to keep him by his side.
