“Greetings, Exalted One!”
Sensing the terrifying aura emitted by Ningdan Patriarch of the Song Family, the group hurriedly bowed.
Under normal circumstances, people would address Ningdan Patriarch respectfully as the Exalted One. After all, the Exalted Cultivator Ningdan was the general title of this realm.
Ningdan was only the simplified name.
Moreover, he could already be called a Patriarch after achieving Genesis. If he is still addressed as Patriarch after achieving Ningdan level, it would not show enough respect for a Ningdan expert.
Of course, it didn’t matter if it was his own family. After all, he was really their patriarch.
“There’s no need for formalities. I’m only here to ensure that you won’t be attacked by demon beasts at the Demon Venerable level. The rest is up to you.”
After the old esteemed one said this, Venerable Ning Dan retracted his aura.
The people from the various families also heaved a sigh of relief.
“Do you have any other objections?” Family Head Song glanced at the other family heads smugly.
“But won’t entering from such a long distance delay the annual worship of the ancestors?” Another family head asked worriedly.
In the Great Qian Dynasty, the worship of ancestors at the end of the year was a big deal. If the worship was delayed because they entered the Endless Mountains, no one would be willing to pay heed even if it was the Song family.
“Everyone, don’t worry about that. The purpose of our trip is not to eliminate all the demon beasts within a 1000-mile radius. Instead, we’re only targeting the demon beasts within the 1000-mile to 1100-mile radius.”
“As for the demon beasts within a thousand miles, they won’t be too dangerous to their respective cities.
“And your mounts are all capable of traveling a thousand miles a day. If we hurry, we’ll definitely be able to resolve it within twenty days. We won’t delay the worship of our ancestors.”
Family Head Song was right. Although the ninth-grade families in Nanyang County were not all Beast Tamer Families, they still controlled some demon beasts as mounts.
Hearing this, no one had any reason to object.
Then, under the lead of Family Head Song, a group of more than two hundred experts above the mid-stage Qi Refinement realm headed into the Endless Mountains.
On the way, Chen Yang, who was riding the Gale Wolf, quietly moved to Chen Xuan’s side. “It was the right choice to let the First Elder come.”
“Looks like the Song family is definitely not up to anything good.”
Hearing Chen Yang’s words, Chen Xuan narrowed his eyes and stared at the Song family members a few kilometers away. “Family Head, don’t worry. I’ll risk my life to ensure your safety.”
“That won’t be necessary. Just be careful when the time comes.”
…
After a day of traveling, everyone finally arrived at their destination before nightfall.
Immediately, under the lead of their respective family heads, temporary residences were established one after another. After arranging for the night guards, the group slept.
The next morning, the Family Heads who had rested for the night gathered around Family Head Song and waited for his orders.
“Everyone, the range of our hunt this time is 1100 miles east-west and 100 miles north-south.”
“I propose that these areas be divided into eleven portions for everyone to choose. Since my Song family is the one who suggested it, you can all choose first. My Song family will choose the last one.”
“In addition, our Ningdan Patriarch will also constantly patrol the hunting area to ensure that the Demon Venerable won’t disturb our hunting trip.”
“Everyone, don’t worry for now. At this distance, there’s only a possibility of demon beasts at the Demon Venerable level appearing.”
Hearing this, the family heads became even more puzzled.
Judging from the current situation, Family Head Song was indeed wholeheartedly organizing the hunt. He even sent out his Patriarch to ensure their safety.
But the more this was the case, the more panicked they became. How could the head of an eighth-grade aristocratic family be so benevolent?
“Everyone, choose your area of responsibility.”
Family Head Song ignored the doubts in everyone’s hearts and opened a map, waiting for Chen Yang and the others to choose.
When the others saw this, they could only brace themselves and choose their hunting area. The Chen family’s hunting area was the westernmost area, adjacent to the 10,000-foot-tall mountain.
And just as Family Head Song had said, the Song family really chose the last piece of the chassis without any objections.
Seeing that Family Head Song was so carefree, everyone could only comfort themselves that Family Head Song might really be planning to clean up the demon beasts.
After collecting the area they were responsible for, everyone took a spare map from Family Head Song and left.
After Chen Yan and the other Family Heads had left, Family Head Song hurriedly bowed to a person dressed as a general. “Young prince, you can begin.”
“Okay.” Excitement flashed in the eyes of the gener… no, the young prince.
After returning from the Song family, Chen Yang did not delay. He immediately led the Chen family to the west.
After half a day of trekking, the Chen family arrived at their destination.
After arriving at their destination, the Chen family was not in a hurry to hunt. Instead, they first built a simple residence and placed some high-level demon beast feces outside the residence before starting to hunt.
In the blink of an eye, the various families of Nanyang County had been hunting in the Endless Mountains for ten days.
In these ten days, the hunting area 1000 miles away from the Endless Mountains was turned upside down by Chen Yang and the other families.
One level-one demon beast after another was killed by everyone. Even if they encountered demon beasts at the demon general level, they could successfully trap and kill them with the exquisite cooperation of everyone.
The Song family even sent a team led by the Genesis Patriarch to support the various families.
This moved the family heads. It seemed that this family head was really doing this for everyone’s good.
However, what everyone could not figure out was that hunts usually had to be quiet to avoid attracting the attention of high-level demon beasts.
However, the members of the Song family did not care about this. All kinds of loud martial arts were used, turning the silent forest into a bustling city.
In a cave in the hunting area, a python demon beast that emitted a terrifying aura and had scarlet eyes spat out its tongue.
Hearing the commotion outside, the python demon beast instinctively wanted to fight, but after glancing behind it, it temporarily held back.
However, as time passed, the bloodthirsty instinct in the python demon beast’s bloodline could no longer be concealed. After hesitating for a moment, it rushed out.
…
BANG!
After Chen Yang killed a mid-stage First Realm demon beast with a punch, he couldn’t help but shake his head. “Our family’s martial arts are really bad.”
“As one with eighth level of Qi Refinement, I still need to spend a lot of effort just to deal with a mid-stage First Realm demon beast.”
“Family Head, our Beast Tamer family is all about beasts, so we naturally don’t have any demands on martial arts.”
“Besides, our Chen family isn’t strong, so we don’t have a chance to find good martial arts,” Chen Xuan explained.
Chen Yang sighed. “I understand what the First Elder means, but can the Beast Tamer Families not pay attention to their own strength?”
“If nothing else, when you’re controlling your beast to fight for you, you need to keep yourself safe from ambushes.”
