Chapter 226: Conquering the White Jade One-Horned Rhino! Chen's Foundation Increases Explosively

……

Ziyin Zhenren's Qingluan flying chariot is very fast. It can fly 28,000 miles in ten hours at a constant speed.

Because they were in a hurry, Qingluan only rested for two hours a day and was almost squeezed to the extreme. In less than three days, the two sides successfully met at the agreed coordinate point in Nanhuang.

"metropolitan."

As soon as they met, Zhong Liye pulled Master Ziyin aside and whispered, "This time, Chen's family encountered an opportunity and originally wanted to ask Master Hongfu of Wanhua Palace to help. It was because I strongly opposed it that I had to take on this job."

"What do you mean?" Immortal Ziyin raised his eyebrows, and was immediately a little unhappy. "The Chen family was originally a family under the jurisdiction of our Yunyang Sect. When encountering good or bad things, instead of asking for help from our own sect, they actually wanted to take advantage of Wanhua Palace?"

At this point, Master Ziyin suddenly remembered the news he had received before, and could not help but frowning slightly: "I heard that Chen Ningtai often flirts with the fairies in Wanhua Palace, and he goes there in person every one or two years. Could it be that he has been bewitched by Yulian and the others?"

The more Master Ziyin thought about it, the more possible it seemed to him. He became more and more unhappy. He felt that Chen was showing signs of changing her mind and he became alert unconsciously.

"Of course that makes sense." Zhong Liye said shamelessly, "However, if the Chen family is really determined to change their family, we can't really do anything to them."

"Hmph! If you want to leave, just leave. If a family has turned treacherously, how can I stop them?" On the surface, Master Ziyin looked aloof and acted as if he didn't care, but in his heart, alarm bells were rising.

Although the Chen family is still a foundation-building family on the surface, with the insight and vision of Master Ziyin, he can naturally see the development potential of the Chen family.

To put it bluntly, the Chen family might be the most promising family under the rule of the Yunyang Sect today. It might be possible for them to become a powerful upper family like the Lu family in Zhongzhou with three golden elixirs in the future.

If he was really poached by the Wanhua Palace, even if Ziyin died, he would not have the face to see the ancestors of the Yunyang Sect.

Think about this.

True Man Ziyin made up his mind immediately.

This time, we must demonstrate our strength and our unremitting support for Chen, so that they can feel who is Chen's most reliable backer!
"Okay, I got it." Master Ziyin patted Zhong Liye on the shoulder and gave him an approving look, "Well done."

After that, Master Ziyin turned around and waved at Chen Jingyun, with an extremely friendly attitude: "Jingyun boy. Tell me what happened. Don't worry, your Chen family is a legitimate family under my Yunyang Sect. Even if the sky falls, I will protect your Chen family."

"By the way, a reward of 300,000 spirit stones is a bit too much. We are all family, so just give half."

He also took the initiative to lower the price in order to strengthen the bond between Yunyang Sect and Chen family, so as to prevent Chen family from having the illusion that their relationship with him, Ziyin, was only based on money.

"Thank you for your sympathy. However, there is no need to lower the price. You came all the way to help us, and we at the Chen family are already very grateful." Chen Jingyun said respectfully, then took out two copies of the contract and handed them over, saying, "However, public matters are public and private matters are private. In order to avoid disputes in the future, this employment mission must go through the contract process."

Master Ziyin was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly and said, "It seems that the opportunity you Chen family encountered this time is not small. Are you afraid that I, Ziyin, will turn against you after seeing the treasure? Don't worry, I, Ziyin, am such a person, how could I be greedy and rob you Chen family of the opportunity you encountered?"

"The Immortal has a noble character, and the world has witnessed it." Chen Jingyun smiled sincerely, looking at Immortal Ziyin with a look of respect, but his tone was not relaxed at all. "However, my Chen family intends to establish more cooperation with the Immortal in various aspects. We can't rely on character for everything in the future. The necessary procedures and contracts cannot be omitted. This is also the foundation for ensuring long-term cooperation."

Master Ziyin thought for a moment, then agreed with a hearty smile: "Okay, then let's sign the contract, this way it will seem more formal."

He opened the contract and scanned it. It was a regular employment contract without any wording traps. It clearly stated the remuneration, responsibilities, obligations, ownership of the spoils, etc.

Without any hesitation, he signed the contract and swore to strictly abide by the contract between the two parties.

In the world of immortal cultivation, it is not uncommon for disputes or even enmity to arise over some interests, but that often happens to independent cultivators who have no roots or foundations. Many cultivators from families and sects have to rely on the word "reputation" to survive in this world.

Take Master Ziyin for example, his reputation is naturally extremely valuable.

In addition, if he really wanted to overturn the contract for the sake of profit, or even engage in activities such as killing people and stealing treasures, not to mention that this would most likely completely ruin his reputation and the reputation of the Yunyang Sect would also completely collapse, he himself would not be able to get over this hurdle.

I, Ziyin, have practiced cultivation all my life. I am a Nascent Soul cultivator who upholds the righteous path. However, I ended up killing people and stealing treasures for profit. My own faith is bound to collapse.

When both parties signed the contract.

The Phoenix-tailed Blue Luan that was pulling the flying chariot on the side of True Man Ziyin was no longer bound by the ropes, and it huddled together with the Golden-feathered Spirit Crane, chatting with each other through their chirping sounds, as if they were reminiscing about the time when they were in the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace and had teased True Man Hongfu's spirit bird together.

Sometimes, the bond between brothers comes from doing little bad things together.

Fortunately, Chen Ningtai is not here, otherwise I would have to worry about my brother Chen Ninghe again.

After Master Ziyin signed the contract, he also formally asked about the specific details of this mission.

Chen Jingyun put away the contract and stopped being shy about it.

Then he encountered a fight between two blue-winged wind-patterned tigers and a white jade one-horned rhino. The blue-winged wind-patterned tiger fled away, but the white jade one-horned rhino returned and told him everything that happened in a valley with a top-grade earth-type spiritual vein.

The more Master Ziyin listened, the wider his mouth opened, and finally his eyes widened.

Top grade spiritual veins!

What a fortune the Chen family has~!!

The last time Chen said he wanted to get a top-grade spiritual vein, he was secretly mocking him in his heart. How could a top-grade spiritual vein be so easy to get? The Yunyang Sect had been developing in the Great Wu Kingdom for ten thousand years, and had only accumulated a dozen top-grade spiritual veins, most of which were accumulated in the early Blue Ocean era.

It is now impossible to find new high-quality spiritual veins in the interior of the Great Wu Kingdom. Even the area in the Southern Wilderness near the Great Wu Kingdom has been plowed over and over again, and everything that should be taken away has been taken away!

If you want to find a top-grade spiritual vein, you either have to go deep into the wilderness or go to dangerous waters.

Not to mention the risks of entering the depths of the wilderness and dangerous waters, even if you are not afraid of risks, exploring and searching for top-grade spiritual veins is like looking for a needle in a haystack. You need extremely good luck to come across one.

But what did Chen do?
Have you found one yet?

Ziyin Zhenren's eyes turned green. "So, Chen's commission this time is for me to kill the white jade unicorn and help Chen extract this top-grade spiritual vein?"

"That's right. For a real person, this shouldn't be difficult or risky, right? And the white jade unicorn rhino is already injured..." Chen Jingyun said calmly.

Difficulty.

Of course it doesn't exist, it just takes some effort.

If he could earn 300,000 spirit stones with just this little effort, Master Ziyin felt that he could do it forever.

But the problem is, this is a white jade unicorn and a top-grade spiritual vein.

Just thinking about it, Master Ziyin felt filled with envy and jealousy.

He would occasionally sneak into the Southern Wilderness to hunt, but he had never encountered such a good thing in many years. However, Chen could easily get such good luck!
Now he kind of understood why Chen wanted to sign a contract with him in advance. Most likely, it was because he was afraid that the benefits would be too great and worried that Ziyin would feel conflicted and uncomfortable.

With a contract, you don’t have to think about anything else.

It's also a relief.

It took Master Ziyin a full quarter of an hour to adjust his mood. He said quietly, "The white jade unicorn is a relatively rare species in the prehistoric world. Because of its lazy personality and dislike of fighting, it is one of the few species that can be tamed after adulthood and domesticated into a sect or family spirit beast through long-term training. A relatively similar species is the dragon whale that your Chen family is on good terms with."

Not only Chen Jingyun's eyes lit up after hearing these words.

Even Chen Xuanmo, who was in the heroic spirit state, showed an expression of great joy.

Killing the white jade unicorn rhino would certainly make a lot of money, but if it could be taken as a family spirit beast, it would greatly alleviate the family's dilemma of insufficient high-end combat power.

"Please help me, Immortal." How could Chen Jingyun miss such a good opportunity? He bowed deeply to Immortal Ziyin and said, "We, the Chen family, are willing to provide more spirit stones."

“Alright, alright, since I have signed a contract with you, I will follow the contract.” Ziyin Zhenren waved his hand, “There is not much difference between injuring the white jade unicorn and killing it. However, the white jade unicorn is only relatively easy to tame. What conditions you Chen family is willing to give and whether you can tame it in the end all depends on your own ability. I can’t guarantee it!”

"Your willingness to help is a great favor to my Chen family." Chen Jingyun solemnly stated, "Whether we succeed or fail, my Chen family will remember your kindness."

This is exactly what Master Ziyin was waiting for.

He has helped Chen so much. If Chen still wants to join Wanhua Palace, he will have to talk things over with her.

After both parties reached an agreement.

True Man Ziyin then helped out, saying, “From your description, that white jade unicorn is either at the peak of the fifth level or the sixth level. But seeing how it was struggling to defeat the two blue-winged wind-patterned tigers, it’s probably at the peak of the fifth level. It’s just that its skin is thick and its strength is so brutal that you mistakenly thought it was at the sixth level!”

"But even so, it should have some good wisdom. Next, I will be the bad guy first. After I injure it, Jingyun and the others will step forward to be the good guys. First, build a good impression with it. After it saves your life, you can have a good exchange with it."

When Chen Jingyun heard this, he immediately nodded.

This is a good plan.

He immediately discussed various details with Master Ziyin, while Zhongli Ye and a group of Chen clan members also helped to consider the details and make the plan as smooth as possible.

Three days later.

In the valley where the white jade one-horned rhinoceros lives, a huge rhinoceros with a body as white as jade is kneeling on the ground listlessly.

Looking closely, there were many hideous wounds on its thick white jade skin, all of which were caused by the claws and bites of the Blue-Winged Wind-Pattern Tiger, as well as wounds cut by knife-like wind blades.

It opened its big sickly mouth and took a deep breath. A pile of rough metal ore flew into its mouth. It chewed it into pieces like candy beans and then swallowed it in one gulp.

After swallowing a few mouthfuls of metal ore, it seemed to feel a little better. At the same time, a hazy yellow energy halo lit up around the white jade unicorn, as if it was connected and resonating with the top-grade earth spirit vein, constantly absorbing the energy in the spirit vein to heal itself.

If no one disturbs it, in a few months or so, the white jade one-horned rhino will recover from its injuries and return to its strong and vigorous state.

Unfortunately.

It is destined that it will never have the chance to recover from its injuries peacefully.

Just when it was concentrating on healing its wounds.

A flash of purple light flashed across the sky, and a terrifying and breathtaking aura spread.

Danger! !! !!

The white jade unicorn was startled and quickly lowered his body, trying his best to restrain his breath, and kept praying in his heart, "Don't see me, don't see me."

But the reality is that what you fear often comes true.

The purple light didn't fly far before it suddenly stopped and flew back.

"what?"

A surprised human voice sounded in the escaping light.

"It turned out to be a wounded white jade unicorn. Great, great, I am really lucky. I am destined to become rich."

As he spoke, the figure in the escaping light waved his sleeves.

A purple cloud suddenly descended from the sky.

When I got closer, I realized that it was not a purple cloud, but a ball of purple flame that covered the sky!

The injured white jade unicorn was unable to dodge and was immediately enveloped by the purple flames.

In an instant, waves of flames rolled, and severe pain came from the skin as thick as gold and jade.

"Ow!"

It was in pain and angry, and couldn't help but let out a heart-wrenching roar.

It's a little rhino. Who did it offend for no reason?
It just wanted to practice in peace, but first the tiger couple suddenly showed up to seize its territory. After it was finally driven away by them, another bad guy came out and burned it with purple fire.

Why, why is this happening? ! !
But its anger was just anger.

The villain's aura was so dangerous, just like the demon king it had visited when it was young. It didn't have the courage to resist at all.

Ouch~~
It roared and fled madly, but no matter how fast it ran or how many towering trees it crashed into, the ball of purple fire still clung to it like a thorn in its side.

In the sky, the bad guy's evil laughter was endless.

“Hehehe, a mere injured white jade unicorn rhino thinks it can cause any trouble in my hands.”

“Just accept your death~ Ahahaha~~”

It’s over. It’s over.

I'm about to be roasted.

The white jade unicorn found that no matter how he fled, he could not escape the entanglement of the purple fire, and the anger in his eyes gradually turned into despair.

It felt that it could not escape the fate of being roasted today.

however.

At this critical moment.

A loud and clear young voice suddenly sounded: "Senior Ziyin, please stop."

"Eh? Jingyun, boy, I advise you to stop interfering in my business." The old man's voice sounded a little vicious, but one could also feel a hint of fear in his tone.

At least, the purple fire moved away from the white jade unicorn a little, giving it a little chance to breathe.

The white jade unicorn looked up slightly, and saw a handsome human youth riding on a majestic and ethereal golden-feathered crane, standing between it and the bad guy, and looking at the purple-robed old man with righteousness and fearlessness.

It didn't know what the young man looked like according to human standards, but in its eyes at this moment, the young man looked particularly pleasing to the eye, and his momentum when confronting the bad guy was also particularly powerful, which made the beast feel particularly at ease.

The young man spoke in a righteous and stern voice: "Senior Ziyin, I see that this white jade unicorn rhino does not seem to have done anything evil, why can't you let it go?"

That's right, that's right.

The white jade unicorn suddenly felt like it had met a soulmate. Every word this person said touched its heart, causing it to nod and howl repeatedly in response.

Awooo awooo, I, the little rhino, always stay within the realm of possibility and never take the initiative to cause trouble.

"Foolish!" The purple-robed old man sneered disdainfully, "Humans and monsters are mortal enemies. Your kindness will only bring more disasters to the human race."

"No!" The young man's eyes were clear and firm. "I believe that there are cruel and brutal monsters in this world, and there are also kind and honest monsters. Take my grandfather Ning He for example, he is a monster with a noble character."

"Ang chi!"

As if to support the young man, the golden-winged crane let out a clear and high-pitched cry.

That's right! This remark hits the nail on the head.

The white jade unicorn rhino quickly responded with a howl.

“Haha! Chen Jingyun, you have a very good family background, you have never suffered any hardship, and you have not witnessed the evil of the world. This Master does not blame you. Get out of the way and let this Master kill this one-horned rhino.” The purple-robed old man seemed unwilling to argue with the young man anymore. He waved his sleeves, and his murderous intent continued to rise.

The rhino was terrified.

"No, Senior Ziyin, I am willing to believe this rhinoceros once." Chen Jingyun stubbornly protected the white jade unicorn.

"No, Chen Jingyun, you can't afford to take the risk. If you keep an adult beast like this by your side, it might become ferocious and harm everyone around you."

"I believe Ah Xi won't do that. It can accept the Beast Taming Ring, right?"

The white jade unicorn nodded repeatedly.

Right, right, wait, the Beast Taming Ring, that thing won’t work~

But before it could object, the purple-robed old man snorted again and continued, "So what? I found this prey myself. Why would you let me suffer the loss in vain?"

"Senior, I can compensate you. Three hundred thousand spirit stones are enough to make up for your loss."

"Jingyun, are you crazy? Even if you kill and sell this stupid rhino, it's not worth that much money."

Yes, yes, I'm not worth the money even if you sell me.

The white jade unicorn seemed to be moved and shed tears.

Otherwise, sir, please don't save me.

"I believe in Ah Xi, it is a good monster. Here are 300,000 spirit stone bills, please take them." Chen Jingyun took out a stack of spirit stone bills, waved his arm, and used his true energy to carry them to Master Ziyin.

When he did this, his eyes were extremely firm and pure, and his whole body seemed to be radiating light. Master Ziyin's tone slowed down a little, but he seemed still unwilling to give up.

"Hmph, even if you pay this amount of spirit stones to buy its life, what does it matter? Although this white jade unicorn has great potential, it has an amazing appetite and likes to eat all kinds of precious minerals. Can you afford to feed it?" "I will try my best to raise resources to feed the unicorn and will definitely not delay its growth in Taoism."

"Forget it, forget it. I have never seen a child as stubborn as you. What are you still standing there for? Since you want to adopt it, why don't you put a taming ring on this evil beast?"

Ah this...

The white jade unicorn's mind was a little fuzzy.

When did it agree to be adopted and given a taming ring?
However, this young man protected himself so much that he even paid a large sum of spirit stones to rescue himself from the purple-robed villain.

Now, if I am not adopted by him and don’t wear the beast-taming ring, it seems that there will be no way out.

Never mind, he is a good guy, why not give it a try.

At this moment, the white jade unicorn made up its mind.
