Eternal Life Starts as a Hunter-Chapter 366 - 140: Double Blessings, the Invincible Hall Master (Super - )
Originally, there should have been an Ancestor of the Guo Family here, but the Ancestor of the Guo Family, along with the Patriarch, had already died. Their descendants received some protection and rewards, and temporarily still reside behind the Triple Gate. However, if they’re unable to reach the Fifth Grade later, they will likely have to move out.
At this moment, seven ancestors watched quietly.
"This old man is truly gaining knowledge.
It’s rare for ordinary people in martial cultivation to master even one additional skill.
Yet, Master Li, at such a young age, has achieved success in both Weapon Casting Skill and Demon Taming Skill."
"Weapon Casting Skill and Demon Taming Skill are not ordinary skills that just anyone can learn.
Elder Xiang, have you not heard of the four great wonders of the world: weapon casting, taming demons, puppet mastery, and alchemy...
To master even one, you can become a valued guest of a major power. This Master Li... has mastered both weapon casting and demon taming."
"I heard that Master Li was already a Demon Master when he was in a small corner county over there, and he could control Seventh Grade Demon Beasts at that time. Unexpectedly... he has remained low-key all these years."
The ancestors exchanged pleasantries while secretly calculating something in their hearts.
Cui Wuji showed a protective stance, laughingly saying, "This is my son-in-law from the Cui Family, hahaha!"
Although outwardly calm, his heart was filled with joy.
The Cui Family had almost fallen from the top four of the Divine Wood Hall’s eight major families to the lowest tier.
But now, the Guo Family is ruined, and although the Cui Family suffered from Master Zhu’s betrayal and only has half a remaining ancestor, they’ve gained a powerful son-in-law.
Next to him, another Ancestor sneered and said, "A Sixth Grade Weapon Forger can forge a Fifth Grade Spiritual Artifact, and even craft terrifying spiritual artifacts like the residual array...
And a Sixth Grade Demon Tamer, his future is unparalleled.
If Li Yuan were to learn the Fifth Grade Demon Taming Skill and then tame a Fifth Grade Demon Beast, even if just one, heh... hehehe...
His value alone would be equivalent to an entire family."
All the ancestors were silent.
A powerful demon beast possesses the strength to "control weaker demon beasts," a concept long evident among ordinary beasts, such as the "Wolf King over wolves," and similarly among demon beasts.
If Li Yuan truly tames a Fifth Grade Demon Beast, it would mean controlling a whole army of demon beasts.
This "helpful" hint immediately caused the ancestors’ eyes to redden.
Cui Wuji quickly said, "Elder Xiang, don’t talk nonsense. Who said a Sixth Grade Demon Tamer can tame a Fifth Grade Demon Beast? That’s impossible."
Yet, no one paid him any attention.
Everyone was just as cunning; what did his words mean? Does anyone not understand?
At this time, a slightly jarring voice sounded.
"Don’t you find this Li Yuan a bit strange?"
The ancestors turned their heads to look and saw it was Liu Family’s Ancestor Liu Luzi.
This female ancestor wore dark black robes with traces of red patterns at the edges. Time surely couldn’t leave wrinkles on the face of a Longevity Species, but it can shape personality.
The Ancestor had narrow eyes and a cold gleam in her pupils, akin to a slippery poisonous snake, giving off an unsettling chilly feeling.
Liu Luzi’s domain of expertise was poison.
Despite not being Gu Xuejian, because of Gu Family’s connection to Li Yuan, this Ancestor said solemnly, "Elder Liu, geniuses are like this. What more do you want to say?
By now, you all should know, Master Li’s son Li Ping’an possesses Innate Shadow Blood.
Ask yourself, would a man who could father such a demon-like son be simple?"
Liu Luzi said sinisterly, "Given your protectiveness, Ancestor Gu, I’ll only say one..."
She glanced around and said, "He became a true Weapon Forger in just over a year, so how could he also possess the talent for Demon Taming?
Think about it... think about it..."
She laughed, her thin lips dripping with malice.
Ancestor Gu squinted slightly and said, "Elder Liu, do you suggest capturing Li Yuan for interrogation to see if he possesses some extraordinary treasure?"
Liu Luzi said with a sinister smile, "I didn’t suggest interrogation, after all... we aren’t impulsive children; we wouldn’t do such a thing, right, Elder Gu?
I’m just reminding everyone that perhaps such a demon doesn’t exist in the world.
If it does exist, there’s the possibility of possessing secret treasures, and such treasures, no matter who obtains them..."
"Elder Liu!"
The Hall Master of the Gu Family stared coldly at her, asking, "Do you have a grudge against Li Yuan? Or perhaps..."
He glanced sideways at Patriarch Jing.
The Jing Family is quite special; the Ancestor is Vice Hall Master Jing Baikou, while the Patriarch is a local elder here.
Patriarch Jing Banfeng’s son died because of Master Zhu, and later, the disgrace to the Jing Family, as well as their ally Guo Family’s destruction, were all related to Master Zhu.
Li Yuan being Master Zhu’s son-in-law, it’s understandable to be resentful...
Jing Banfeng glanced at Liu Luzi, withdrew his gaze, his eyes flickering, then smiled, "Don’t be angry, Elder Gu; Elder Liu just mentioned a possibility."
Then he sighed and said, "Right now, the western battlefield is quite unfavorable to us. Lotus Sect, their tricks are many, and now is the time for everyone to work together.
If Master Li truly has some treasure or secret, it should be revealed...
After all, in the collapse, no egg stays whole.
If Master Li’s treasure or secret can enhance our Divine Wood Hall’s strength, it could help us turn the situation around.
I know, Master Li will sacrifice a lot, but... our Divine Wood Hall will surely compensate him and his son, right?"
As his words fell, Ancestor of the Gu Family already rolled up his sleeves.
Jing Banfeng chuckled, "Don’t be angry, Elder Gu; it’s not time for internal fighting. Better leave it to the Hall Master to decide... If Master Li has no secrets, it won’t harm him, right?"
