Chapter 4
After discussing the next plan with First Elder Chen Xuan, Chen Yang spent the next few days cultivating in his small courtyard.
Chen Yang was having a leisurely time, but Nanyang County was in an uproar.
The news of the Gongsun family attacking the Chen family’s silk convoy had already spread. To everyone’s surprise, the Chen family did not say anything.
Before everyone could recover from their shock, another piece of news came. The Chen family was looking to purchase the Ice Elemental Pearl and was willing to pay alot for it.
And the price far exceeded the value of the Ice Elemental Pearl.
Nanyang County, Gongsun City.
As a ninth-grade family with two Genesis Patriarchs, the Gongsun family was qualified to name the city they lived in.
This was also a manifestation of the Gongsun family’s strength.
In the Gongsun family home, the First Elder Gongsun Gu, stood beside his lord, Gongsun Miao. “Family Head, what do you think of this news?”
“What do you think?” Gongsun Miao snorted. “The Chen family is anxious and wants to seek help from their patriarch’s master.”
“In that case, I can’t let the Chen family get what they want.”
“Pass down the order to search for the Ice Elemental Pearl in Nanyang County with all our might. No matter what, we can’t let the Chen family obtain it.”
“Yes!” Gongsun Gu nodded and turned to leave.
Gongsun Miao stroked his mustache. “Hmph, Chen family, let’s see who else can save you this time.”
Time passed. In the blink of an eye, five days passed.
According to the Chen family’s discussion, they would send someone to attend the young sect master’s coming-of-age ceremony today.
In the meeting hall, when Chen Xuan saw Chen Yang, he was first stunned before he fell into ecstasy. “Family Head, have you broken through?
“I was lucky.” Chen Yang closed his fan and smiled.
“Good! Good! Good!”
Chen Xuan shouted three times in a row, then smiled and said, “With the Family Head’s talent, you will probably achieve your Genesis Breakthrough soon. At that time, our Chen family will no longer be afraid of the Gongsun family.”
“That’s enough. No one can predict the future. Let’s focus on what’s in front of us first.”
“By the way, have you dealt with the Howling Moon Wolf?”
“Of course there’s no problem.” Chen Xuan patted the blue-gray bag at his waist. “With the Beast Taming Bag given to me by the Patriarch, no one will know that we Chen family has the Howling Moon Wolf with us on this trip.”
“Then I’ll have to trouble First Elder to guard the Beast Taming Bag.”
Chen Yang nodded. This Beast Taming Bag was a treasure refined by the Beastmaster Sect. It had a universe inside and could store demon beasts.
Although it could only store demon beasts below the Genesis Level, it was still very precious.
In the entire Great Qian Dynasty, only the Beastmaster Sect could refine it.
If not for the fact that the Chen family’s Patriarch had made a lot of contributions back then, there would really be no free Beast Taming Bag left for the family.
After preparing everything, under Chen Yang’s lead, a group of more than ten people headed to the Beastmaster Sect.
As a seventh-grade sect, the Beastmaster Sect was the ruler of Jiangzhou, one of the thirteen states of the Great Qian.
Its mountain gate was located in the place with the most spiritual energy in Jiangzhou.
Fortunately, this place was not far from Maple City. After traveling for eight days, Chen Yang and the others arrived at the Beast City at the foot of the Beast Mountain.
“Alright, let’s rest.” After finding an inn, Chen Yang arranged for everyone to stay.
After everything was arranged, Chen Yang planned to rest.
At this moment, Chen Xuan suddenly walked in.
“First Elder, what’s the matter?” Chen Yang was very surprised. Why was First Elder looking for him instead of resting?
“I have something to tell you, Master.”
“What sort of things?”
“Previously, because you broke through to the eighth level of Qi Refinement, I was so happy that I forgot something important.”
Hearing the First Elder’s words, Chen Yang was a little surprised and immediately gestured for the First Elder to continue.
“Family Head, as you know, our Chen family is a beast-taming family. We don’t have many powerful martial arts in the family. Our strength is all on our natal beasts.”
“But our Chen family’s cultivation technique is an incomplete version of the Beastmaster Sect’s cultivation technique. It can only refine a natal demon beast at the Qi Refinement realm.”
“What I’m worried about is that if the Family Head doesn’t refine the natal demon beast, you’ll probably achieve your Genesis Breakthrough.”
Hearing the First Elder’s words, Chen Yang smiled and said, “First Elder, you think too highly of me. How can I achieve Genesis Breakthrough so quickly?”
“Besides, after resolving my current predicament, I’ll just choose one of our family’s Gale Wolves and refine it into my natal beast.”
“What? The family head wants to refine the Gale Wolf? No, no.”
Hearing that Chen Yang planned to use the Gale Wolf as his natal beast, Chen Xuan waved his hand.
“Why?” Chen Yang was a little surprised. The demon beast that the Chen family knew the best was the Gale Wolf. Why couldn’t they treat the Gale Wolf as their natal demon beast?
“Family Head, you also know that the Gale Wolf’s future achievements are limited. It’s impossible for it to become a Demon General.”
“Family Head, you will definitely become a Genesis Patriarch in the future. If you don’t have a demon general-level natal beast, wouldn’t you be delaying yourself?” Chen Xuan said.
Only then did Chen Yang understand that this was what Chen Xuan was worried about.
“First Elder, have you really forgotten my secret?” Chen Yang smiled at Chen Xuan.
Chen Xuan nodded. “Although I’m not sure how the Family Head strengthened the demon beast bloodline, I’m certain that the price he paid must not be small.”
“In that case, why waste this price on the Gale Wolf and not choose a more powerful demon beast to nurture?”
Chen Yang understood.
The First Elder’s worries were not unreasonable. The Dao Integration Bead used the Chen family’s clan fortune as energy, so it naturally could not be used casually.
If he found a demon beast with a powerful bloodline, he could save a lot of energy.
Besides, even if he didn’t save energy, that energy could be used to strengthen demon beasts and quickly become Chen Yang’s trump card.
Moreover, the Dao Integration Bead could not accumulate a lot of energy in an instant. It needed to continuously devour the clan’s fortune and slowly accumulate energy.
This could also ensure that the Chen family could develop steadily.
If they suddenly consumed a large amount of their clan’s luck, most of the Chen family’s martial artists would probably go berserk. The rest would either be smashed to death by meteors or accidentally fall into the water and drown.
That was how much the family’s clan fortunes affected the family.
“First Elder is right. I won’t casually refine my own beast.” After thinking about it, Chen Yang decided to listen to Chen Xuan.
Hearing Chen Yang’s answer, Chen Xuan stroked his beard and smiled. “That should be the case. I’ll take my leave now.”
After the First Elder left, Chen Yang laid on the bed and looked at the roof, his mind constantly thinking about his natal beast.
The Chen family’s cultivation technique, the Ten Thousand Beast Technique, had a flaw. Not only was the path to the Genesis Breakthrough cut off, but it could only refine an natal beast at the Qi Refinement Realm.
“The inheritance of the Ten Thousand Beast Technique and the Beast Taming Sect. When I have the chance in the future, I can try to exchange for the subsequent cultivation techniques.”
“This way, not only can the patriarch try to break through to the Ningdan

realm, but the disciples of the family also don’t have to rush to find their natal beasts.”
