Chapter 322: I Have Two More Younger Siblings?

One day later.

On Longshe Shan.

Uncle Chen Shen brought three people up the mountain together; after entering the formation, Chen Shen instructed the three to stay where they were, not to wander, not to go down the mountain, just rest on the spot, not to touch anything around, repeatedly warning and ordering, lest they touch the formation and invite deadly disaster.

Longshe Shan is not the Chen family's property; moreover, those two nephews are young, seem unreliable, after all they are children, running around everywhere, getting carried away when they find something fun. This remark was mainly directed at that sister-in-law, who is called Hu Yueer, of the Fox Clan, a fox tribe within the Monster Race, considered a relatively well-known monster tribe.

Among the Fox Clan, women are beautiful, men handsome, beloved by many cultivators; some lower-cultivation Fox Clan members are even more favored by many families, fetching high prices—for example, this sister-in-law named Hu Yueer, of such quality, if put up for auction outside, the price would not be low; our Chen Clan cannot afford her.

One can imagine how costly that price is; many loose cultivators, for resources, will take risks, and it is not easy for them to reach Longshe Cheng safely—first, Longshe Cheng is relatively close to the Fox Clan's territory, outside is the domain of demon beasts with few humans; second, the Fox Clan possesses its own life-saving abilities, so it can only be said they were very lucky, encountering neither humans nor danger along the way.

Along the way, Chen Shen didn't chat much with her, and Hu Yueer also didn't speak much; it seemed Chen Yuan had previously instructed her not to ask what she shouldn't, not to say what she shouldn't.

"Wait here for me, don't wander off, this place is very dangerous."

Hu Yueer nodded; the two children stayed close by, very well-behaved, a pair of cute big eyes observing the surroundings; it was clear they liked this place, the spiritual aura of Longshe Shan was rich, nourishing their bodies, mainly due to the special Dao rhythm emanating from this mountain peak, making them feel as if they were back home, relaxed in mind and body.

The two young children sat beside their mother, curiously observing this strange world; after being warned by their mother, they dared not misbehave, staying quietly by her side; Uncle Chen Shen came up the mountain, found his nephew Chen Chuyang, or rather, Chen Chuyang was waiting for him here.

Shang Hongxue stared oddly at Uncle, wanting to speak but hesitating; Chen Shen naturally knew what she thought—this lass, no, plus Yu'er and them were also staring at him; Chen Shen gave no explanation, but went straight to Chen Chuyang and whispered, "Nephew Chuyang, this time you must help Uncle."

Chen Chuyang gave Uncle a strange glance, then said displeased, "Uncle, doing this aren't you afraid Aunt Yu'er will cause you trouble? They're all keeping an eye on you."

"My Longshe Shan is not a dumping ground, not a place where you can just stash women; this time, nephew, I am powerless."

He directly issued an expulsion order, not wanting Longshe Shan to become Uncle's hiding place for women.

Nor did he want Liu Yuer and Zhang Nongqian to clash over the new woman; Uncle played around a lot, got his hands on Fox Clan women, and even had two children with them—impressive.

Cough, cough, maybe the two children aren't necessarily Uncle's; Uncle just likes married women.

"Cough, cough, Nephew Chuyang, don't think wildly; they are not my women."

Uncle Chen Shen hastily explained: "This is your father's woman."

Chen Chuyang widened his eyes in disbelief, looking at Uncle, suspecting he had misheard.

"Whose?"

Beside her, Shang Hongxue's eyes also widened, filled with gossiping fire.

If she heard correctly, this woman is the father of Elder Brother Chuyang, that is, the Chen family's head, Chen Yuan's?

No way, Chen Yuan is utterly henpecked, just like her father, a man terrified of his wife to death—how could he…

Could it really be that one knows the face but not the heart?

Has Chen Yuan's persona collapsed?

My goodness.

This is big news.

Shang Hongxue leaned in a bit; this gossip, she definitely wants to hear clearly, cannot miss it.

Uncle Chen Shen also had no need to conceal it; the Chen Clan already knows this matter.

Chen Chuyang will soon find out too; he shrugged, relaying everything Chen Yuan had told him, one by one, to Chen Chuyang.

"That's how it is; your father told me this, now you understand, right? These three are not my trouble but your father's; this favor, you cannot refuse to help."

"Their identities are special; once they leave Longshe Cheng, they will surely be watched, and then it will become dangerous."

"Nephew Chuyang, you wouldn't want your brothers and sisters to encounter danger, would you?"

Uncle Chen Shen had Chen Chuyang figured out; if they were his women, pah pah, he could never have them, nor could he betray Yu'er; in his heart, only Yu'er.

Chen Chuyang's breathing quickened, somewhat unable to accept; he needed to think it through.

In other words, father brought back a concubine.

Moreover, this woman met father before mother did?

Then, on a stormy night, father's luck was great; he succeeded on the first try.

That Fox Clan woman gave birth to twins; such probability is too low, right?

It seems somewhat fake, somewhat unbelievable.

The Fox Clan, also part of the Monster Race; for any monster tribe, birth rates are low, pregnancy chances far lower than humans, incomparable; the odds of succeeding in one attempt are harder than forming a Golden Core in one step, yet father hit the jackpot—this luck is indescribable.

Chen Chuyang still cannot accept it to this day.

It really is too hard to believe.

"Uncle, this kind of thing cannot be joked about."

Uncle Chen Shen solemnly said: "Nephew Chuyang, I am not joking with you; her arrival caused an uproar throughout the Chen Clan; currently your mother is fuming, and your father, to appease her, specifically had me bring them up here for you to look after for a while."

"You know your mother's temper; this matter won't be easily overcome."

"This matter isn't your father's fault, either."

Chen Chuyang understood; Uncle had come as a mediator.

This is full of illicit affairs.

Why wasn't it father who sent them up, but Uncle instead?

Father felt he would lose face facing him, didn't dare come, so he sought Uncle.

"Uncle, did you take some benefit?"

Chen Shen had no concealment; he leaned in and whispered softly into Chen Chuyang's ear.

"Just like that, you must help Uncle; Uncle's future and happiness depend on you."

Chen Chuyang was speechless; this Uncle had sold him out again.

For his Yu'er, for his happiness, even his blood nephew was sold out.

"Uncle, you're doing this wrong."

"Nephew Chuyang, this is Uncle's compensation for you."

As he spoke, Chen Shen handed over a storage bag containing his compensation.

Chen Chuyang glanced at it and nodded.

That's right, Third Uncle still knows how to handle worldly affairs.

This time I'm giving you face for Third Uncle's sake; next time, there won't be a next time.

All right, all right, no next time, Chuyang nephew, rest assured—Third Uncle guarantees this is the last time.

Chen Chuyang gave him a deep look, thinking to himself, Hopefully that's the case.
