Chapter 426: Off-the-Charts Third Uncle Almost Ruined Liu Yuer

~7 min read 1,208 words

Third Uncle, don't listen to them, trust your nephew—can your nephew possibly deceive you?

Capable. You're the most scheming.

Others at least still have a conscience, but my nephew, you truly have none.

Upon hearing this, Chen Chuyang gave Third Uncle a white-eyed look; these words were heartless.

It really hurt his feelings.

Third Uncle, saying that about your nephew will hurt his feelings.

Hehe. Third Uncle didn't believe it at all.

This nephew is too good at acting; his acting skills are three points better than the elder sister-in-law's; if you're not careful, you'll fall for his trap; Chen Shen knows this nephew too well, and it's not the first day they've dealt with each other; this pill definitely has a problem, otherwise Nongqian wouldn't have given him a hint.

Between Nongqian and this nephew Chen Chuyang, he chose to believe Nongqian; at least, children don't lie.

Moreover, the niece-in-law's expression gave her away; although she showed no reaction, Third Uncle knew there must be a serious problem here, otherwise such a fine fourth-grade pill wouldn't have come his way.

A fourth-grade pill, if casually put up for sale, could buy half of the present Chen Clan; one can imagine how precious a fourth-grade pill is—formerly, the Chen Clan didn't even have the qualifications to see one.

Such a fourth-grade pill could drive countless forces mad, yet the nephew gives it to himself; Third Uncle Chen Shen doesn't think he's that precious—being able to eat a fourth-grade pill, even receiving a third-grade pill would feel extravagant to him.

Third Uncle, you must eat this pill today even if you don't want to.

There's no room for refusal; you are my third uncle—if you don't eat it, are you supposed to give it to others?

Third Uncle hastily laughed: "Nephew Chuyang, it's not that I won't eat, but that I can't eat; such a precious pill should certainly be given to your father first—let me take it back for your elder brother; I'm sure he'll definitely eat it."

After the elder brother eats it and is fine, then it's the second brother's turn, and only then mine.

I'm the third brother; with good things, naturally the elder brothers eat first.

How could he overstep?

That's improper.

Chen Chuyang laughed: "Third Uncle, you weren't like this before; I give you any good thing right away, yet you doubt your nephew—your nephew feels hurt."

Third Uncle remained unmoved; you keep performing—anyway, I won't open my mouth.

Impossible to agree.

The two of them were stuck in a standoff here.

Chen Chuyang walked over and said softly: "Third Uncle, Nongqian is already my disciple; shouldn't we celebrate such happy news?"

This pill was refined by the nephew to teach Nongqian pill refining—do you really want to disappoint Nongqian?

Third Uncle, for Nongqian's sake, for your beloved, eat this pill.

Chen Shen stared at Chen Chuyang—this is a threat, a blatant threat.

If you don't eat this pill, I'll have to hold back; then Third Uncle will suffer.

Your women are in my hands; if you don't help me with my affairs, can that be justified?

Zhang Nongqian widened her eyes, never expecting her master to be so shameless—this is too……

Shang Hongxue burst out laughing.

This is truly my elder brother Chuyang—unscrupulous.

So full of villainous aura.

The black goat looked on with interest at Chen Shen—will he eat it or not?

It also wanted to be a spectator, to watch closely how Chen Shen ruins himself—that scene must be quite exciting.

Finally it's someone else's turn to break down; the one collapsing is no longer it.

Nephew Chuyang, must Third Uncle absolutely eat this pill?

Yes.

Third Uncle won't die, will he?

No, the nephew's pill isn't poisonous; Third Uncle, don't be afraid—it just has a few side effects.

What side effects?

Chen Chuyang didn't speak, but smiled while looking at Third Uncle.

Chen Shen took the pill, stared at it intently, trying to see its auxiliary effects.

Obviously, he couldn't see or discern them.

Third Uncle, stop looking—after taking this pill, we'll still be uncle and nephew.

……

Chen Shen took a deep breath, facing death as if returning home, and said: "Nephew Chuyang, if Third Uncle dies, you must find him an auspicious burial site—don't let him die in vain."

Okay.

His palm trembled, almost dropping the Blood Burning Pill.

Chen Shen then knew it was definitely problematic—this pill truly threatens life.

What could be done? Since he had leverage over this kid in Chen Shen's hands, Chen Shen had no choice; he closed his eyes, opened his mouth, and swallowed the pill in one gulp.

After waiting a while, nothing happened; Third Uncle was about to speak when his complexion suddenly changed.

His heart pounded violently, the blood energy inside his body uncontrollable, his cultivation began to erupt.

The powerful cultivation surged outward; Shang Hongxue and Zhang Nongqian were quickly flung away.

Chen Chuyang and the black goat stood their ground, unmoved by this aura.

Here it comes—indeed, this pill is even more terrifying, its effect even more formidable.

The black goat exclaimed excitedly: "Thirty times the blood energy, still rising—forty times, my heavens, fifty times!"

This kid's strength is still increasing—can his body withstand it?

The blood energy increase stopped; fiftyfold blood energy erupted.

One can see Chen Shen has reached his limit; his body is about to explode.

Chen Chuyang did not act, but was recording the data.

The modified Blood-Burning Pill reduced the pressure on the body, and the terrifying effect brought by the explosion also weakened.

Much better than the first Blood-Burning Pill.

"Deserves death."

Qi and blood erupted to a certain point; Chen Shen opened his mouth and uttered two words.

The hot-tempered him went straight down the mountain.

The formation blocked him; Chen Chuyang directly removed the restriction.

Third Uncle descended the mountain, headed for Liu Yuer, seized her in one grab, and rushed straight into the room.

Soon, a shrill sound came from the room.

Zhang Nongqian's face turned blush, she lowered her head, not daring to look.

Shang Hongxue smiled at the corner of her mouth, and sounds kept coming from beside her ear.

Even at such a distance, those sounds could not be blocked.

Third Aunt's voice was quite nice; unexpectedly, it was so pleasant to hear.

Heishanyang looked at Chen Chuyang with puzzlement, as if asking why their treatment differed; it, trapped in the Alchemy Furnace, longing for immortality yet suffering, could only self-harm; thinking of this, its eyes filled with killing intent.

Looking at Chen Shen again, just letting him go—this isn't… obviously a trap for it?

Chen Chuyang explained, "You don't have an old lover; you can't be allowed to harm others."

On Longshe Shan, there are no suitable demonic beasts for it; outside, Chen Chuyang worries those beasts might be diseased, and if it brings back an illness, wouldn't that be doom?

"I'm doing this all for your own good; you need to understand me."

Heishanyang panted, glaring at Chen Chuyang, so you just watch me self-harm, watch my joke?

"Cough, cough, cough—not really; I mainly want you to keep yourself pure and self-respecting."

"……"

Heishanyang lunged forward.

"I'll fight you to the end."
