The Strongest Urban Son-in-law

Chapter 500: Chapter 509: Monster【Two Updates】

However, Zhang Qing now sensed that Ye Feng had easily crossed that barrier and was conversing with Han Yi.

Others actively sought out Han Yi, trying to get close to her, but Ye Feng was different, it was Han Yi who took the initiative to approach Ye Feng, which puzzled Zhang Qing.

In Longdu, among the second-tier, top elite families, there was no family surnamed Ye. If Ye Feng was a martial artist, Zhang Qing didn’t sense any trace of a martial artist’s aura on him.

Such an ordinary person, what exactly had Han Yi seen in him that made Zhang Qing feel very uncomfortable.

”Hurry up! Didn’t I tell you not to stray too far from us? Do you have a death wish?” Zhang Qing chided loudly, his eyes flashing with anger.

Upon hearing Zhang Qing’s words, Han Yi was taken aback, showing a look of guilt, ”I’m sorry, Zhang Qing. I got carried away and forgot what you told me. I’ll be more careful.”

Seeing Han Yi’s apologetic expression, Zhang Qing felt somewhat reluctant to scold her further: ”Alright, just stay close to us from now on.”

Han Yi grew even more puzzled: ”By the way, Big Brother Zhang Qing, what exactly happened in the Hundred Flower Garden that required your intervention, and even shut it down for a week?”

Zhang Qing frowned and then spoke: ”Enough, I’ll tell you all so you don’t go running around and lose your lives. You know about the Demon Suppressing Pond of the Wendao Sect, right? Inside, we suppress some powerful demon beasts. However, some time ago, a demon beast escaped from the Demon Suppressing Pond and hid within this Hundred Flower Garden, secretly devouring humans to restore cultivation.

”That demon beast has already covertly killed four or five people. It’s extremely dangerous. We’ve only recently discovered that the creature has taken refuge here, so now you understand why the staff won’t let you in, right?”

”A demon beast?” Upon hearing Zhang Qing’s words, Han Yi’s face turned sour. Although Han Yi was already a martial artist, she had only reached the realm of External Force. Indeed, it would be very dangerous if they actually encountered it.

Zhang Qing smiled faintly: ”That’s why you should stay closer to us if you want to enjoy the flowers. With the protection of me and my two Taoist uncles, nothing will go wrong. If you behave like just now and play by yourselves, I’ll send you back and won’t take you with us any longer!”

Han Yi nodded repeatedly: ”Yes, got it, got it!”

Zhang Qing glanced at Ye Feng: ”And you, kid, you’d better not run off. If you stray more than five meters away from me, and something happens to you, don’t blame me for not warning you!”

Ye Feng seemed unconcerned and replied indifferently: ”I won’t die...”

After hearing Ye Feng’s words, Zhang Qing scoffed coldly, his eyes showing disdain, as though looking at an idiot: ”Forget it then, I’ve said what I needed to say. If you’re seeking death, it’s up to you!”

Ye Feng and his group walked through the flowers, making their way towards the summit of Baixiang Peak.

The closer they approached the mountain top, the more they could feel the silence throughout the peak.

The entirety of Baixiang Peak was deadly quiet, as if devoid of any life. Looking along the mountain path, it was bottomless, as though danger awaited them.

After walking for about half an hour, Ye Feng and his companions finally arrived at the summit of Baixiang Peak.

In the center of Baixiang Peak’s summit, there was a pond about twenty square meters in size, and from this pond, a faint chill rose, freezing the space at the summit as if time itself had stopped.

And around this icy pond, there were skeletal remains, not of humans, but of animals, such as hares and wild chickens, and the quantity was terrifying, amounting to the bones of over a hundred animals.

After seeing this scene, Zhang Qing said, ”Uncle Master, it seems that demon beast is indeed hiding within the chilly pond.”

The two Daoist Grandmasters nodded: ”It’s all right. That demon beast has been suppressed in our Demon Suppressing Pond for over a hundred years, unable to feed. It’s been in a state of depletion, far weaker than before. The few of us are more than enough to handle it!”

After hearing the Grandmaster’s words, Zhang Qing felt much more at ease.

Then, the Grandmaster of Innate Perfection approached the icy pond, picked up a stone, and threw it into the pond.

”Plop~~” The sound echoed as ripples emerged on the surface of the pond.

But at that moment, something miraculous happened, with the ripples upon the pond’s surface.

A Yao Feng storm suddenly swept through the space between heaven and earth.

”Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~” The Yao Feng tore through the area, petals scattering, trees shaking violently.

The gusting winds sounded like the roars of demon beasts.

Yet as the ripples in the pond disappeared, so did the Yao Feng.

”Plop!” Again, the Innate Perfection powerhouse threw another stone into the icy pond, causing more ripples.

”Whoosh whoosh whoosh~~” Instantly, the storm returned to the mountain summit.

As the Yao Feng howled, the surrounding trees came to life, twisting their bodies like roaring demon beasts gone wild.

But once the ripples in the pond ceased, the Yao Feng also came to a stop.

”It seems the demon beast is indeed slumbering beneath this icy pond. Now, we just need to figure out a way to lure it out!”

The Innate Perfection cultivator spoke, deep in thought.

Yet, Ye Feng’s heart was full of excitement. A demon beast capable of causing such unique phenomena must be a legendary creature! One must know that demon beasts form under stringent conditions; they must absorb nature’s spiritual energy and the essence of the sun and moon. Only through serendipitous circumstances can they develop Spiritual Wisdom and become a demon beast.

Nowadays on Earth, nature’s spiritual energy has been depleted, and demon beasts have mostly perished. However, Ye Feng had now encountered one.

For Ye Feng, this was truly an unexpected fortune.

Once a demon beast cultivated to the level of a legendary creature, it would condense a Demon Core. For any martial artist, the Demon Core was an exceptional tonic, capable of directly enhancing one’s cultivation when consumed.

Of course, if used for Alchemy, the effects could be increased manifold. Right now, Ye Feng was in urgent need of increasing his cultivation, and it seemed that fortune had favored him with this encounter...
