Chapter 173: With such a good thing, why didn't you tell me earlier

In the dilapidated small temple, A-Mei recounted her experience.

Originally, they lived in this surrounding area, but as human sects continued to increase, their living territory became smaller and smaller.

There were also many human powerhouses who formed teams to enter the depths of the forest to hunt demonic beasts.

There were also many human powerhouses who died in the depths of the forest.

This also formed a subtle balance.

But the problem was, in the territory of the demonic beasts, they not only had to deal with fierce humans but were also attacked by other demonic beasts.

By chance, her daughter obtained a fairy grass that could transform her form.

The mother and daughter simply transformed into human appearances and entered the human territory to cultivate.

After all, the fighting between humans didn't seem as cruel as that of demonic beasts.

Transformed demon races were "black households" in the May Tian Ce Dynasty; the best way was to stay in a sect to cultivate.

Next was what Xie Minjun said: A-Mei preserved her strength, served as a tribute in a small sect, and provided some help for her daughter; her daughter dispersed her demonic aura and went to a major sect to cultivate.

Facing a powerhouse of Li Chen's crushing level, A-Mei definitely had to tell the truth, perhaps only then could she obtain the other party's trust and gain a way to live.

Just as Xie Minjun said, if she could be taken in by a Sage Realm powerhouse, then she would be considered to have an identity and wouldn't have to hide in the May Tian Ce Dynasty.

While A-Mei was saying these things, Li Chen was also sizing her up.

This demon woman's jade body and delicate frame had undulating mountains, and her exquisite figure was just right.

Perhaps because she was of the demon race, her figure was even more perky.

Her full chest supported her clothes, and looking from the side, one could discover a perfect arc.

Plump and sexy, it aroused reverie.

In front of Li Chen, her performance was like a gentle, virtuous, and wise wife and mother, gentle, elegant, and beautifully peerless!

As the Emperor, he knew well that demon races more or less had some wildness; if the wildness erupted, it would cause certain harm to ordinary people, not to mention this demon woman who had the cultivation of the peak of the Heavenly Abyss Realm.

Leaving her outside, it was indeed somewhat dangerous.

So Li Chen felt that it was better to keep her by his side, watch her well himself, and it could also be considered for the safety of the people.

In the end, A-Mei knelt on the ground and said earnestly: "If Your Majesty needs it, A-Mei is willing to work like a dog or horse for Your Majesty!"

Li Chen had seen this kind of attitude before; it was like in a mystical realm, when those powerful demonic beasts felt the aura on his body, they would all crawl on the ground, waiting for him to ride them.

During the time Li Chen was thinking, even if it was less than ten seconds, A-Mei felt that every second was like a year.

Her life and death were completely in the hands of this man.

Now, she was just begging for a way to live.

After thinking for a moment, Li Chen said: "Fine, I will take into account that you haven't committed any major mistakes and keep you by my side."

Hearing this, A-Mei was overjoyed; now not only did she not have to die, but she had also grabbed onto the thigh of the Emperor of the May Tian Ce Dynasty, and she would never have to hide in the May Tian Ce Dynasty again in the future.

A-Mei stood up and came to Li Chen's side, as obedient as a pet.

Seeing this happy ending, Xie Minjun was also very relieved; at least she didn't let her friend be harmed.

Next was naturally the stage of signing a contract.

Just like some cultivators who keep demonic beasts, they would make some marks on the demonic beasts, linked to the marks on their own bodies, so they could feel the state and position of the demonic beasts.

It could also be said to be a master-servant contract.

A-Mei had heard of master-servant contracts, but she didn't know how to do it, so she waited for Li Chen's arrangement.

A pair of large, blinking eyes looked at Li Chen, appearing very obedient and sensible.

Li Chen had only learned about demonic beast sealing in this regard, and that was learned from Wu Nanzhi.

That kind of sealing also had to be faced with powerful demonic beasts; A-Mei was now a demon race, so unless she turned back, it was also very difficult to do.

However, there were still ways; Li Chen could use the most primitive means.

It was still morning, so Li Chen brought this Soft-Rou Rou Gu Mei Tu A-Mei back to Shanghe City, arrived at the Jiang family, entered his room, and began to seriously sign the contract.

The contract was signed from this moment until the next morning.

Li Chen had been working very hard to sign the contract until A-Mei willingly shouted "Master."

When A-Mei came out of the room, this contract signing was considered finished.

Xie Minjun had long prepared a sumptuous meal, waiting for them to appear.

Beside Li Chen, A-Mei was still obedient and sensible; after Li Chen left slightly, A-Mei glared at Xie Minjun.

Xie Minjun also came to her side with an apologetic face and said: "Sister, I did this for your own good."

A-Mei didn't appreciate it and said angrily: "With such a good thing, why didn't you tell me earlier!"

Xie Minjun: "..."

So you weren't angry because I sold you out, but because you didn't get to meet Li Chen earlier, right?

This was wronging me; I only met him recently, and I shared it with you immediately. I heard that the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law Jiang Ningyue secretly hid it for a few days.

Xie Minjun didn't know the demon race's way of thinking, but as a woman, she also understood women. This demon powerhouse probably also experienced the happiness, so she appeared so willing in front of His Majesty.

How could she not know Li Chen's power? Women who could be favored by Li Chen might be a bit coy at first, but in the end, they all felt they had profited and met too late!

Xie Minjun had prepared many words of persuasion; now it seemed there was no need to say them.

The other women of the Jiang Fu were very curious about A-Mei's background.

But the most shocked was the Son of Luck Lin Mo.

It had only been a day, and how did that Emperor named Li Chen get another woman, and she was such a mature, beautiful, and stunning one.

He felt that the speed at which Li Chen obtained women was faster than what he saw.

If it were another man, Lin Mo would complain: You have so many women, can you afford to keep them!

But this was the Emperor; he could truly afford it.

Seeing Li Chen, Lin Mo had a feeling of being a loser.

So he decided to find a sense of superiority from the other two servants.

At least he was still a small attendant by Jiang Rong's side, and these two servants were just doing odd jobs.

If he couldn't compare to Li Chen, he had to find someone to compare with.

Otherwise, how could he live these days?

In the hall, after Li Chen returned, he began to ask A-Mei about the remnants of the previous dynasty, the sects, and her daughter.

She had been lurking in this area for a long time, so she would more or less know something.

To say anything else, A-Mei might not know, but she had indeed seen this.

When she lived in the forest before, she saw some human cultivators killing each other.

Those human cultivators killed their compatriots and then used a special technique to absorb the energy from the other party for their own use.

At that time, she was very curious: was the human race also like this?

After transforming into a human form, she lived in a human sect and also heard some news.

According to the sect people, this kind belonged to special evil cultivators; they could cultivate normally, but they could improve their cultivation by sacrificing others.

There was another saying, which was the Yuan clan, the remnants of the previous dynasty that Li Chen mentioned.

The cultivation of the Yuan clan had always been like this; in Shanghe City and its surrounding areas, many remnants of the previous dynasty were hidden.

They seemed to have been developing in this place, but the problem was, the May Tian Ce Dynasty's official authorities checked this area strictly, and those powerful sect cultivators also had zero tolerance for this kind of thing, so they suppressed them in various ways.

So the Yuan clan of the previous dynasty had been developing in this area for so long, but the progress was very slow and had always been in a state of being neither dead nor alive.

As for the sects Li Chen wanted to know about, A-Mei could say it together with her daughter.

Her daughter, because of her extraordinary talent, joined the Chensha Dao Sect.

The Chensha Dao Sect was just as the outside world said: a mixture of good and bad people, but with a deep foundation and extremely strong strength.

Perhaps it was these people with problems in their identities who wanted to protect this place they relied on for survival.

The management mode of the Chensha Dao Sect was very unique; they would let sect disciples form teams, and then be managed by elders, so this team would produce bonds, and the cohesion would be very strong.

The disciples of the Chensha Dao Sect were very fierce outside; in some competitions, when other sects were in an advantageous position, they would hear the disciples of the Chensha Dao Sect shouting slogans about bonds, affection, love, and the like, and in a minute, they would explode with a small universe and directly turn the tables. A-Mei remembered that her daughter joined a group called the "Chensha Seven Freaks."

These seven people each had their own characteristics, and their talent and strength were very strong, and they were also key targets for the Chensha Dao Sect.

However, A-Mei didn't like the captain of these seven people very much; she remembered that the boy's surname was Tang.

The boy surnamed Tang often said that he wanted to achieve coexistence between humans and demons, not to kill demonic beasts easily, and would not take the initiative to kill those demonic beasts.

But this boy said one thing and did another.

A-Mei often saw this boy wantonly killing demonic beasts, and he killed those high-quality demonic beasts, just purely to obtain powerful strength.

Li Chen could hear that when A-Mei spoke of this boy, the resentment expressed was clear; she obviously didn't like this guy surnamed Tang.

But the problem was, her daughter liked that boy surnamed Tang very much and helped the one surnamed Tang kill demonic beasts, obtaining cultivation resources from the demonic beasts.

This made A-Mei very angry, feeling that her daughter had been deceived.

Speaking of this, A-Mei seemed to think of something and said: "Your Majesty, today my daughter is coming to the auction house in Shanghe City. If you want to understand the Chensha Dao Sect, I can call her over."

As Li Chen's contract beast, or to be precise, pet, she was indeed trying very hard to understand Li Chen and share his worries.

!

Hearing that Li Chen wanted to inquire about the Chensha Dao Sect, she said so, but she also had other plans.

At this time, Xie Minjun said: "Sister, you are doing this too dangerously; why don't I go."

If there was no Sage Realm person accompanying, if a demon race was discovered outside, it was very likely to be directly attacked by human powerhouses.

Even if A-Mei was Li Chen's pet now, others might not know.

A-Mei had a trace of demonic aura on her body, which could be perceived by some props or powerhouses who often dealt with the demon race.

"Auction house? Anyway, I don't have anything to do recently; let's go together." Li Chen intended to go out for a walk, so as not to have his pet caught, which would be difficult to handle.

You know, the one responsible for the city's public security was Lin Yue'e; she had been catching people strictly since she took office, and every day she was either catching people or on the way to catch people, simply handling cases that hadn't been handled in Shanghe City for so many years.

Don't let Lin Yue'e and A-Mei have a conflict; Li Chen would have to run a trip.

Hearing that Li Chen was going, A-Mei was also overjoyed.

Places like auction houses were also locations that Sons of Luck liked to come to very much.

They could rely on their luck to obtain various mysterious props at low prices.

Today, the Son of Luck Tang Shan and A-Mei's daughter Xiao Rou also came here.

After entering the venue, Tang Shan and Xiao Rou encountered two infuriating things.

The first was the arrogant attitude of the auction house's maid; the Son of Luck seemed to carry a halo of being looked down upon, and wherever he went, he seemed to be ridiculed.

Tang Shan clearly had this halo; after showing off a little, taking out the treasure to be auctioned, and seeing the maid's surprised eyes, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a satisfied smile, and he took Xiao Rou inside.

"Brother Shan is so amazing; these blind guys, humph!"

Xiao Rou was like Tang Shan's fan, constantly praising him.

Tang Shan enjoyed this feeling very much; anyway, no matter where he went, he would encounter these people with nothing to do looking for trouble with him.

But the problem wasn't big; he could show them off, and gain the favor of the fan girl.

The second was that the auction house was actually auctioning demonic beasts.

For a human auction house to sell demonic beasts, that was actually a very normal thing.

But Tang Shan angrily denounced this behavior, using a voice that Xiao Rou could hear, and said in a low voice: "The life of a demonic beast is also a life; how can it be sold as a commodity! It's simply inhumane!"

Tang Shan, who had just hunted a demonic beast, obtained the inner core, peeled the skin to sell, and ate the meat, was able to say such righteous words without blushing or skipping a beat.

But once he said this, Xiao Rou even more admiringly continued: "If everyone were as excellent as Brother Shan, demonic beasts could live in peace with humans."

A girl in love just brainlessly felt that whatever her sweetheart did was right.

Anyway, Tang Shan had reasons for whatever he did; he was a self-centered person.

Whether it was stealing treasures from other sects or snatching other people's opportunities, eating the sect's resources but not wanting to repay the sect at all, he felt it was all taken for granted.

After all, he was the Son of Luck; everything was very reasonable.

Many people came to the auction; they were all local cultivation families in Shanghe City and nearby sects.

Because this was a place of the May Tian Ce Dynasty's official authorities, it was relatively formal and safe, and selling things was guaranteed.

Tang Shan came this time to sell some things he didn't need and obtain some value-for-money props at low prices; every time he came to the auction house, he had this kind of luck.

Arriving at the auction scene, the demonic beast just now had been sold, and on the stage, another cultivation material called "Charm Spirit Velvet" was being auctioned; it was a spirit grass.

Seeing this kind of thing, Xiao Rou's eyes lit up.

Charm Spirit Velvet was the favorite food of the Soft-Rou Rou Gu Mei Tu; not only could it nourish the body of the Soft-Rou Rou Gu Mei Tu, but it could also enhance its agility and flexibility, making it more agile and free in battle.

Perhaps this kind of spirit grass was of general use to other cultivators, but to the Soft-Rou Rou Gu Mei Tu, it was a heaven-and-earth treasure; buying it was profiting.

Xiao Rou looked at Tang Shan with eager eyes, the expression seeming to say: Brother Shan, buy it for me!

Tang Shan said grandly: "No problem; not many people are bidding for this thing; I can buy it with a little money."

Looking generous, in fact, this guy was very stingy; he felt that good things should be used by himself and shouldn't be spent too much on others.

Tang Shan was not only stingy but also very selfish.

In the past, his strength was low, and he was mixing at the bottom of the Chensha Dao Sect.

At that time, he met a kind elder; this elder's strength was not strong, but he taught him earnestly.

He compared that elder to his father; that elder had no descendants and was very happy, so he taught Tang Shan all his skills and fought for many resources for him.

But now, his strength was getting stronger and stronger, and he had surpassed that elder.

He naturally felt that there was no need to be overly respectful to that elder; this was a world where the strong prey on the weak.

The reason he took care of Xiao Rou by his side was nothing more than seeing that Xiao Rou had some skills, slowly cultivating feelings, and maybe she could block disasters for him in the future.

The cultivation world was very dangerous, especially in this kind of cruel sect, with various enemies killing each other.

And when exploring in dangerous places, one would also encounter many powerful demonic beasts.

Many times, only by selling teammates could one survive.

The problem was, if you want to sell teammates, you have to have teammates first!

Without teammates, how can you sell teammates?

Xiao Rou was very fond of Tang Shan; she had a tall figure, a black scorpion braid hanging past her buttocks, a stunningly beautiful face that was fair and moving, and a pair of eyes that looked particularly agile; her appearance looked clear and moving.

No matter where she went, she was a stunning beauty who attracted attention.

With this kind of woman by his side, Tang Shan enjoyed the envious and jealous eyes of other men, which was naturally very cool.

In fact, Tang Shan wanted to take down Xiao Rou, which was also a matter of convenience; he hadn't taken her down for two major reasons.

The first reason had already walked over.

"Brother Shan, Sister Xiao Rou, why are you here?"

A familiar voice sounded, and a delicate and exquisite beautiful young girl walked over.

The beautiful young girl was wearing a simple white long dress, with neat ear-length short hair, and her skin was as tender and smooth as a lychee.

With an exquisite and beautiful face, a very well-proportioned figure, and a noble and transcendent temperament, her sweet smile could make anyone who saw it feel pleasing to the eye.

This beautiful young girl's name was Ning Xiaoxiao, and she was a member of the "Chensha Seven Freaks," the team Tang Shan was in.

Ning Xiaoxiao's background was very powerful; her father was also a well-known expert and possessed an extremely strong cultivation bloodline.

She had shown her infatuation and admiration for Tang Shan on many occasions, which was a feeling that transcended friendship.

Tang Shan definitely knew, but the problem was he could only choose one, so he didn't clearly express his rejection of Ning Xiaoxiao, hanging Ning Xiaoxiao and enjoying Ning Xiaoxiao's pursuit.

After all, Ning Xiaoxiao's father was very strong; sometimes Tang Shan still needed her father's help.

When Tang Shan's strength surpassed Ning Xiaoxiao's father, Tang Shan's face would be revealed without a doubt.

If Tang Shan took down Xiao Rou now, then Ning Xiaoxiao would give up and not be so good to him, so Tang Shan chose to hang them both, and talk about it when he didn't need Ning Xiaoxiao anymore.

There was no way; Xiao Rou and Ning Xiaoxiao were both naturally beautiful types; Tang Shan was actually very tempted, but he could only choose one, because these women definitely wouldn't allow him to choose a second one.

Hearing Ning Xiaoxiao's greeting, Tang Shan returned gently: "It's Xiaoxiao; why didn't I see Brother Dai and the others?"

As for the second reason why Tang Shan didn't take down Xiao Rou, it was the fiancée of this Dai Xiaoyao he just mentioned, Zhu Zhuying!
