Archean Eon Art

Chapter 248 Ten Years

“Yes.” Solemn, Meng Chuan said, “The demons hate me to the core. If they do everything they can but are still unable to get rid of me, it’s very likely that they will take revenge on our children. The demons are ruthless and evil. They can and will do anything to exact revenge on me.”

“Ah Chuan, you guard six states and have great influence in this region. You alone are much more useful than a Regis Godfiend,” said Liu Qiyue seriously. “The demons will definitely not give up. We might as well hide You’er and An’er. Even the clansmen in the manor don’t know about our children… The Skydemon Sect can forget about finding out where our children are.”

“There are more than ten million people in Jiang State Capital. There are all sorts of people here,” said Meng Chuan. “I’ll find an ordinary manor and let You’er and An’er live there. We will usually live there so that we can take care of them.”

“Yes.” Liu Qiyue’s eyes lit up. “I’ve always been worried about You’er and An’er. They live in Meng Manor and have always been accompanied by a retinue. They are placed on a pedestal because their parents are Marquis Godfiends. I’ve been afraid that they would become proud and complacent. It will be detrimental to their growth. Now that they’re only two years old and still unaware of the world, we can pretend to be an ordinary family to nurture their characters. At the very least, they can be more down-to-earth.”

“Once they reach the Mortal Shedding realm, we can tell them everything,” said Meng Chuan. “After all, once they reach the Impervious realm, they will probably head to Archean Mountain to cultivate soon.”

“Can both of them enter Archean Mountain?” asked Liu Qiyue as she smiled.

“Let’s nurture and train them well. In this era, helping them possess sufficient strength will be the best gift we can give them,” said Meng Chuan. He had seen demon monarchs slaughtering humans too many times.

“Yes.” Liu Qiyue also understood what her husband was getting at.

In the foreseeable future, the war would likely become crueler.

“Oh? They’re here.” Liu Qiyue walked out of the study and saw a large group of people from Earth Net enter. Three Earth Net Godfiends led the group towards them.

“Marchioness Calmmoon.” The three Earth Net Godfiends bowed respectfully.

At that moment, Meng Chuan began cleaning up the bowl of porridge and the candle.

“This bowl of porridge and that candle combine to form a lethal poison. Even Marquis Godfiends might die if they are poisoned,” said Liu Qiyue coldly. “Investigate the origins of this poison. How did this poison make it to Marquis Eastcalm and I?”

The three Earth Net Godfiends were extremely shocked.

Marquis Eastcalm and Marchioness Calmmoon had just survived an attempted assassination?

“Yes.” The three Earth Net Godfiends respectfully acknowledged her orders.

Earth Net was responsible for investigating everything. They were experts at this. Even Great Solar Godiends that were proficient with illusions in Jiang State Capital helped investigate this matter.

Archean Mountain also sent Godfiends to investigate.

In just three days, the results were out.

The poison was Gold Horn Worm Poison. It was unique to the Demon Realm. Demon experts had to carefully produce this special poison. This poison required one to kill thousands of demon monarch-level Golden Horn Worms for a chance of refining the poison. In the Demon Realm, Golden Horn Worms were a rare species. A portion of Golden Horn Worm Poison was equivalent to 150 million Archean Mountain credits. Even a treasure like the Dragonwater Domain only had a value of 60 million credits.

Once the Golden Horn Worm Poison entered one’s body, it rapidly destroyed every part of the victim’s body. A Marquis Godfiend would die within seconds.

Even if one were a Phoenix Divine Body expert, they would be too late to save themselves if the poison reached their brains. Only Marquis Godfiends that cultivated the Indestructible Divine Body had a high chance of surviving the body. The rest were practically doomed. Such a potent poison was meant for cultivation. However, it was suitable for assassination because it was colorless and odorless. It was quite a significant loss for the demons to use it to assassinate a Marquis Godfiend.

The demons were willing to make such sacrifices just to kill Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue. Unfortunately for them, Meng Chuan had reached the physical body cultivation system’s Divine Power realm. His life-preservation means far exceeded the demons’ expectations.

Jiang State Capital, a manor that spanned just over an acre. It was ordinary in every way.

“Little You’you, Little An’an, this will be our home in the future.” Meng Dajiang and Liu Yebai brought Meng You and Meng An along as they played around. Meng You and Meng An ran around the yard happily. Meng Chuan and his wife watched this scene with a smile.

“Come, learn from Dad, and swing the saber.” Meng Chuan taught his son and daughter, Meng You and Meng An-who were both only three years old. They held a wooden saber each and swung them excitedly.

Let’s try again. Meng Chuan patiently taught them. He had personally sharpened the two wooden sabers.

When Meng You and Meng An were four years old, they had decided on the weapon they would wield in the future.

Meng An liked spears. His elder sister, Meng You, was more fond of swords.

They aren’t going to use sabers. Meng Chuan was helpless.

“You’re good at close combat. After attaining the Realm of Dao, you can use other weapons skillfully,” said Liu Qiyue with a smile. “I rarely engage in close combat. I’ll have to rely on you to teach them close-combat skills.”

“Don’t worry.” Meng Chuan smiled and said, “Be it spear or sword, in the early stages, they are just an application of strength. Furthermore, it’s only an extension of one’s arm. It’s the same for the Realm of Unity, Realm of Force, and the Realm of Intent. In each realm, they learn how to use their strength more intricately until they can affect the outside world. The Heart Intent Saber’s Yin-Yang Transformation is based on one’s intent. I’m still very confident in teaching them the basics. There’s no better master in Jiang State Capital than me!”

In just half a month’s time, Meng Chuan had created a set of basic spear arts and a set of basic sword arts. They contained the principle of Yin and Yang.

“How dare you slack off! Turn around and raise your buttocks!” Meng Chuan’s veins bulged as he roared angrily.

Meng An turned around and raised his buttocks obediently.

Pa! Pa! Pa! Meng Chuan slapped furiously.

“Stop hitting me. Stop hitting me. It hurts. It hurts.” Meng An finally cried after enduring a few hits. His sister stood at the side, not daring to speak. She also looked scared.

Years passed.

Meng Chuan taught them step-by-step. They reached Foundation Establishment at four years of age, Internal Tempering at six, and Marrow Cleansing at eight. They entered the Green Elm Dao Academy—the closest dao academy to their home. In public, they were thought to be ten years old! However, in reality, two years were added to their real age. In a large city with a population of over ten million, reaching the Marrow Cleansing realm at ten years of age wasn’t too conspicuous.In the blink of an eye, it had been ten years.

They still lived in the same manor. Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue were having breakfast when the boy and girl quickly finished eating.

“Dad, Mom, we are going to the Dao Academy.” Meng You and Meng An stood up. “Go.” Meng Chuan smiled at his children.

Meng Chuan and Liu Qiyue hadn’t changed in the past ten years, but their children had grown up.

Now 12 years old, Meng An and Meng You had reached the peak of the Mortal Shedding realm! Of course, everyone in Green Elm Dao Academy believed that the twins were 14 years old! But, they were still considered Green Elm Dao Academy’s geniuses.

“Meng An and Meng You are stronger than us back when we were their age.” Meng Chuan looked at the withered leaves floating down from the trees in the courtyard and sighed. “They will probably reach the Impervious realm next year. Their cultivation speed is rather good if they can reach the Impervious realm at 13 years of age.”

“I wonder when they will gain insight into Force,” said Liu Qiyue. “Junior Brother Yan Chitong attained Force at the age of 13. I wonder if Meng An and Meng You will be able to catch up to Junior Brother Yan.”

“I’ve taught them everything that needs to be taught. They have to rely on themselves to reach the Realm of Force. The further they go on their cultivation path, the less help we can provide,” said Meng Chuan.
