22 Break 1 (1/2)

In the morning, Yan Xiu had Bai Yuan delivered the green water to the livestock. Bai Yuan gazed at the green water intensely, the fresh fragrance from the water was very enticing to Bai Yuan.

Yan Xiu was amused looking at Bai Yuan, he produced seven buckets worth of green water while resting in between.

”Don't worry, I have your portion right here. So just take that to the livestock and be careful not to drop it.” (YX)

”Uho! (Got, it!)” (BY)

With bucket in each hand, Bai Yuan carefully walked to the pig pen and chicken coop. Six buckets were for the pigs, chickens, and Bai Yuan, two buckets each. The last one was for the Glass Lime. The last two crops, Spiked Carrots and Snow Radish were ready to harvest, so the Glass Lime got a bucket for itself. Yan Xiu was thinking of fermenting them.

After harvesting and watering, Yan Xiu went to cultivating. On the side, Bai Yuan was enjoying the green water after he delivered the green water to the pig pen and chicken coop. He drank it slowly, sip by sip, like enjoying a wine.

”Teacher, we're almost there.” (CH)

”Un.” (XM)

Chen Hanchen was walking with Xiao Musheng toward Yan Xiu house, their purpose was to check on the contract between Yan Xiu and Bai Yuan, also to check Bai Yuan personality. They would not let a demon beast with dangerous and uncontrollable personality into the village, even if it was contracted.

Frankly, Xiao Musheng didn't believe Yan Xiu had contracted a demon beast, what's more the demon beast was stronger than him. Chen Hanchen might not know, but Xiao Musheng knew that contracting beast was harder than it looks.

First, the contractor, in this case the human, must be stronger than the demon beast, or the demon beast would break free from the cultivator control. Second, the most important factor, the demon beast must be willing to be contracted, lest the demon beast would be harder to control, even try to break the contract and the contractor would suffer the demon beast wrath if it ever be free.

Based on the two conditions, Xiao Musheng had his reason to not believe what Chen Hanchen told him.

Turning back time to yesterday evening, Xiao Musheng just got back to the hunter HQ and Chen Hanchen already waiting for him at the door.

Chen Hanchen recounted Yan Xiu battle with the Wood Snake to him, after the story, Xiao Musheng held the same opinion with Chen Hanchen. The boy was a talent, he had to be nurtured carefully.

But, when Chen Hanchen reached the part where Bai Yuan showed up, Xiao Musheng could hardly believe what he heard. A boy and demon beast eating together? A demon beast following a boy for food? Even going as far as make a contract for it?

Xiao Musheng wondered just what was Chen Hanchen smoking when he recounted the story for him. In the end, to ascertain the truth, Xiao Musheng decided to check it personally.

When they reached Yan Xiu house, Xiao Musheng was rooted on the spot. While Chen Hanchen could only feel the barrier when he passes through, Xiao Musheng already felt the barrier from afar.

Chen Hanchen already told him about the barrier, but he didn't believe it. Why would an esteemed personage stayed on this backwater village? But now, he was forced to believe it.
