Chapter 294

Clan chief, you wouldn't really be preparing to let this little brat still crawling in bed become our Nine-headed Mountain Fox Clan's son-in-law, would you?

Hu Jiushisan said doubtfully.

Hearing this, Wang Ping'an, who was originally multitasking and secretly monitoring Hu Jiushisan, almost cried out.

He was worried that Hu Jiushisan's sudden visit to their home was to scout, to confirm whether his uncle had left, making it convenient for Hu Jianbai to act.

Taking the opportunity, they examined his body to see if he had any value, worth paying the heavy price of the entire Nine-headed Mountain Fox Clan, and also secretly abduct him.

Of course.

He also speculated whether Hu Jiushisan's purpose in coming here had other motives.

But hearing Hu Jiushisan's words was something he never expected.

Let him become the son-in-law of the Nine-headed Mountain Fox Clan?

Let him, a baby just born a few months ago, become the son-in-law of the Nine-headed Mountain Fox Clan?

Is this something a normal person… a normal demon could do?

No.

A figure suddenly appeared in Wang Ping'an's mind, and he then recalled that Lord Luo had arranged people to come to their home to set up a child betrothal, and despite his mother's firm opposition, Lord Luo also built a villa nearby.

Although.

Lord Luo did not reveal the purpose of building this villa near the Wang family, but everyone is not a fool; how could they not know what's going on?

After all.

Sima Zhao's intentions are known to all!

Lord Luo already wanted to arrange a child betrothal with him when he was just a few months old, so Hu Jianbai wanting him to become the son-in-law of the Nine-headed Mountain Fox Clan is understandable.

"No way, in my previous life I was a lone star of calamity; in this life is my peach blossom luck really this strong?"

Wang Ping'an said with a strange expression: "I've only just been born a few months ago, I haven't even grown up yet, and already two people want to become engaged to me, one of them a monster; if I grow up, what will happen?"

For a moment, Wang Ping'an didn't know whether he should feel depressed or happy.

Although.

Hu Jiushisan muttered to himself, stating his purpose here, which made him feel utterly absurd, yet he still breathed a sigh of relief.

At least he didn't have to worry about being exposed in front of that old fox Hu Jianbai and being abducted by him.

"Perhaps this really is the possibility; otherwise, the clan chief wouldn't have sent me to guard a human household and allowed me to tell this to the human cultivator named Xuanqing Daozhang, completely uncaring about outsiders discovering it.

"On the contrary, as soon as I finished speaking, that human cultivator knew it was our clan chief who wanted to arrange a child betrothal with this human family's newborn."

Hu Jiushisan sighed, face full of envy; it was not actually interested in the clan chief's daughter, after all, the seniority is set, and acting rashly would easily invite heavenly punishment and an untimely death.

What it envied was the clan chief's great regard for this human family's newborn child.

If the clan chief had shown it even a little more regard, it wouldn't have spent so many years watching the gate.

Facing Niuda's veiled mockery, he at that time had no ability to retort.

"No, Hu Jianbai wants me to be his son-in-law; how would my master know? From Hu Jiushisan's words, did my master tell him this?"

Wang Ping'an's expression instantly turned extremely strange; he knew that when Hu Jianbai left, he had no contact with his master, and such an important matter couldn't be settled in a few words.

Suddenly.

A flash of insight passed through Wang Ping'an's mind, and he thought, "I understand, this is fake; my master deliberately deceived Hu Jiushisan, wanting to use this to stop him from acting recklessly."

At this time.

Wang Ping'an didn't know whether to feel happy or disappointed; the reputation of fox spirits was like thunder in his previous life, and shortly after arriving in this world he had seen Hu Meiniang and Hu Jianbai, two fox demons who had taken human form.

What shocked him was that the previous life's boasting about fox spirits could only be described as not exaggerated.

Just now. Upon hearing that Hu Jianbai intended to take him as a son-in-law, he felt, besides gloom, also secret joy.

Who would have known.

This matter, however, turned out to be false.

Upon hearing this, which his master told Hu Jiushisan, Wang Ping'an not only could understand his master's purpose in doing so, but also could understand Hu Jianbai's purpose in arranging for Hu Jiushisan to guard his home.

Nothing more than gaining some favors!

The martial world.

It's not just fighting and killing; it's human relations and worldly wisdom.

After confirming there were no problems, Wang Ping'an couldn't be bothered to pay attention to Hu Jiushisan's outside surveillance, but deep down he still felt a bit tense.

Today.

Hu Jianbai, to gain some favors, not knowing whether from him or his master, arranged for Hu Jiushisan to guard his courtyard; someday, for others' favors, he might also go out.

Although the saying goes: 'At home rely on parents, when out rely on friends!'

But in fact, one relies more on oneself!

It seems.

He still needed to quickly go to the Nine-headed Mountain Market to see if he could buy a beast hide on credit, remake the Small Five Elements Sword Formation, and set it up in his courtyard.

This novel you have reached

Although.

The Small Five Elements Sword Formation, which even Hu Meiniang cannot handle, let alone Hu Jianbai who is obviously stronger than her, but at least can play an unexpected role at critical moments.

He happened to take advantage of this period when Hu Jianbai was preparing to befriend him, striving to improve himself; even if the Small Five Elements Sword Formation couldn't stop Hu Jianbai's wrongdoing.

His own strength……

Even if he is no match for Hu Jianbai, at least he can flee with his family.

The next day.

The sun gradually rose, a strand of soft sunlight from the window shone on Wang Ping'an; he woke from deep sleep, while practicing the Purple Qi Scripture, he also controlled a paper person to emerge from the World Pearl.

He carried a storage bag with him.

In his storage bag were nothing but intermediate talismans he had refined over this period, one after another.

Although.

He had just obtained an advanced talisman yesterday; the value of an advanced talisman absolutely exceeds that of an intermediate talisman, but the problem is he lacks the materials to draw an advanced talisman.

As for basic talismans…

He does have some materials, but for him drawing intermediate talismans is just as easy as drawing basic talismans, yet the difference in value between them is astronomical.

As long as one isn't foolish, everyone knows how to choose.

This time leaving for Jiu tou shan ji shi market, Wang Ping'an did not, as usual, wake Peregrine Falcon Little Gray and have it serve as his mount.

Who let Hu Jianbo place Hu Jiushisan at his doorstep? Hu Jiushisan had already been digging a hole and building a house in an inconspicuous spot outside his courtyard; he could not guarantee that commanding the Paper Person to leave would not alert Hu Jiushisan to something amiss.

Even if the possibility is small, it's still better to be extra careful.

Wang Ping'an commanded the Paper Person to leave, and after traveling a long distance, since the Paper Person he controlled could be large or small, now having been shrunk, he need not worry about attracting attention, and moreover it moved very fast and was hard to detect.

He arrived at an uninhabited forest.

Wang Ping'an then took out a spirit boat from his storage bag and commanded it to fly toward Jiu tou shan ji shi market.
