“Every courtyard has a legacy or treasure left behind by the Yang Sect. Only after receiving all of them can it be considered complete.”

“All received?”

Chen Yang looked at the dense courtyard and swallowed his saliva. There were so many inheritances. If he accepted all of them, how long would they have to wait!

“Why? Do you want to obtain the entire inheritance at once? With your current strength, you can’t do it.”

“But don’t worry, you can leave at will. You can come back to accept the inheritance when you’re ready,” the giant moth said.

“Senior, aren’t you afraid that we won’t be able to return?” Chen Yang was really not used to the giant moth suddenly being so easy to talk to. He subconsciously felt that there was a conspiracy.

“Hmph! Ask yourself that. See if you’ll come back on your own?”

“That’s true. How can I give up with such a precious treasure in front of me?” Chen Yang smiled and ignored this question.

It was impossible for anyone to give up such a precious inheritance. The Giant Moth was naturally not afraid that they would never return.

“By the way, you’re the first person to come in after all these years. As a reward, I’ve decided that anyone who follows you in is an inheritor.”

“Hurry up and call everyone you know. Complete this damn inheritance so I can be freed.”

The light voice carried the thick resentment of the giant moth and sounded in Chen Yang and the others’ ears again.

Chen Yang was stunned. This giant moth would do anything to hand over this inheritance.

“Why not? That Old Li didn’t say that he could only choose one heir. I think the people who came with you are all dragons and phoenixes among men. They are favored by the heavens, so they can naturally be heirs,” the Giant Moth said disdainfully.

Chen Yang was speechless.

“Since Senior has said so, I will thank you.” As he spoke, Chen Yang glanced back. “Aren’t you going to thank Senior?”

“Thank you, Senior!”

“Alright, alright, hypocrites. If you really want to thank me, hurry up and take the assessment.”

The sudden shout of the giant moth made everyone jump and run to the courtyard area. Everyone chose a courtyard.

“After entering, don’t force the inheritance. Your safety is the most important.” Before entering, Chen Yang reminded them one last time.

“We understand.”

Whoosh!

Taking a deep breath, Chen Yang officially pushed open the courtyard door in front of him.

…

In the outside world, the appearance of the Demon Venerable made all the aristocratic families participating in the hunt gather together to fight against the Demon Venerable with the Ningdan Patriarch of the Song family.

“Spirit Eye Python, how dare you attack my Nanyang people? Aren’t you afraid that the Beastmaster Sect will skin you alive?” The Song Family Ningdan Patriarch berated.

Upon hearing the words ‘Beastmaster Sect’, a trace of conflict flashed across the Spirit Eye Python’s eyes. However, it was quickly invaded by its bloodlust and continued to charge at the aristocratic families.

“Damn it, isn’t it said that this Spirit Eye Python is extremely intelligent and calm and won’t attack humans easily? This Spirit Eye Python is simply crazy.” Gongsun Miao broke down.

As a beast-taming family, Gongsun Miao did not dare to say that he knew all the demon beasts, but he still knew the famous Spirit Eye Python in the Great Qian Dynasty.

However, the Spirit Eye Python in front of him was completely different from the usual Spirit Eye Python. It was bloodthirsty and impulsive. It did everything that a Spirit Eye Python does not do.

“Could it be that it’s pregnant?” The head of the Mo family, another Beast Tamer family, raised a different opinion.

“Pregnant?” After being reminded by the head of the Mo family, Gongsun Miao snapped out of his daze. “Yes! It’s rumored that once the Spiritual Eye Python gets pregnant, its temperament will change drastically.”

“Not only is it bloodthirsty, but it will also rush out and tear apart anything in the outside world.”

“Although this Spirit Eye Python is quite strong and has a certain level of self-control, it caused too much commotion when we hunted. This beast’s nature has already suppressed its rationality.”

Hearing Gongsun Miao’s words, everyone finally understood why the Spirit Eye Python was charging at them without any regard for its life.

At the same time, he also felt a little resentful towards the Song family. This was because during the hunt just now, only the Song family had caused a huge commotion.

However, what they did not know was that the Song family had done this on purpose to lure the Spirit Eye Python out.

Two flowers bloomed, one on each side.

In the cave of the Spirit Eye Python, a man in black entered. He ignored the small Spirit Eye Pythons and picked up a small red snake.

After putting the little snake into the Beast Taming Bag, this person immediately turned around and left. At this moment, a cold snort entered his ears.

“Hmph! Did you want to swallow this Scarlet Flame Python alone?”

Following the cold snort, three Ningdan Venerables, who were dressed in the uniforms of the Beastmaster Sect, emitted a terrifying aura.

“Heh, I didn’t expect to see a Scarlet Flame Python in the Spirit Eye Python’s cave. This is really strange. Could it be that the female Spirit Eye Python has mated with a Scarlet Flame Python?”

“Elder Qiu, you can’t spout nonsense. The disciples will misunderstand. The Scarlet Flame Python and the Spirit Eye Python are mortal enemies. How can they reconcile?”

“Then Elder Wu, why do you think there’s a Scarlet Flame Python in the Spirit Eye Python Cave?” Elder Qiu smiled.

Elder Wu snorted at the man in black. “Hmph! There are many situations. For example, although the Spirit Eye Python and the Scarlet Flame Python are mortal enemies, it still likes some snake-type demon beasts with the Scarlet Flame Python bloodline.”

“There were some fortuitous encounters that led to his bloodline reverting to its original state and becoming a Scarlet Flame Python.”

Besides, it might be the Spirit Eye Python that captured it as food for the Little Spirit Eye Pythons. But based on the current situation, the first possibility is very likely.”

“After all, this man pointed straight here. He must have received the news in advance.”

“Oh, I see.” Elder Qiu agreed exaggeratedly. Then, he stared at the man in black in front of him and a murderous aura gradually surrounded him.

Surrounded by three Ningdan experts, the man in black was not nervous at all. Instead, he showed a golden token.

“This is what my master wants. Please give me some face.”

Seeing this token, the three of them narrowed their eyes at the same time. Elder Qiu braced himself and said, “I didn’t expect it to be that person’s request. Then we will naturally give in.”

“However, I’m very curious. With that person’s strength, he shouldn’t be interested in this Scarlet Flame Python.”

“Not interested? Hmph! Everyone from the Beastmaster Sect is so arrogant. You don’t even like the Scarlet Flame Python with the Demon King bloodline.”

“Besides, this thing is for my little master to use as a beast tamer. Please give my master some face.”

Although the man in black sounded like he was pleading with the Beastmaster Sect, his expression was provocative, aii he was afraid that these people would not attack.

“Well …”

The three elders of the Beastmaster Sect looked at each other. Then, Elder Wu took a step forward. “Since your family needs it, we naturally have to give in.”

“I just have a question for you. With your family’s power, you can easily obtain the Scarlet Python without revealing anything. Why are you making such a big fuss?”
