Beast-controlling fairy clan.

Chapter 23 Zhou Zhengyong's Request
After giving the mysterious snake egg to Zhou Daoquan, the third elder of the Zhou family who was most proficient in the art of taming beasts, for research, Zhou Chun no longer took the matter to heart.

It would be best if Zhou Daoquan could figure out a way to hatch the egg next.

Even if he fails to figure out the problem and damages the mysterious snake egg, Zhou Chun can still get up to five hundred spirit coins as compensation.

He won't lose out no matter what.

In the next six months, Zhou Chun's life rhythm returned to the state before he went to the Mu family.

It’s just that because more and more independent cultivators come to Jiufeng Ridge to practice, the time that these Zhou family cultivators spend guarding Jingling Pavilion has been reduced.

For many independent cultivators who have low cultivation levels and are not good at fighting, the safest way to earn spirit coins is to guard the Jingling Pavilions for various immortal cultivation sects, families, and markets.

Compared to going out on adventures and fighting monsters for spiritual resources, guarding the Jingling Pavilion is harder and less rewarding, but it is safer and more stable.

A safe and stable job is definitely sought after by most people in any world.

If there was no need for someone to supervise these independent cultivators, and it would also save some spirit coins, the Zhou family could even completely outsource the task of guarding the Jingling Pavilion to independent cultivators.

It is precisely because of the participation of these independent cultivators in this arduous task that Zhou family members like Zhou Chun can have more time to meditate, practice, and learn other immortal cultivation techniques.

During the past six months, Zhou Chun took a [Chun Yang Pill] almost every fifty days. Each time he took the pill, he could open up an acupoint within fifty days.

It is basically certain that after he has taken all eight [Chun Yang Pills], his cultivation will definitely be promoted to the eighth level of Qi Refining Stage.

At the same time, his spiritual pet, the Rock Turtle, has been rapidly improving in cultivation after taking the [Beast Spirit Pills] continuously. It is estimated that in another year or so, it may be able to catch up with its master.

One day, Zhou Chunzheng came back from reading in the library on Feishi Peak, and saw his cousin Zhou Zhengyong waiting outside his courtyard gate.

Seeing him coming back, Zhou Zhengyong immediately stood up with a look of joy on his face and said, "Thirteenth brother, you are finally back."

"Brother Yong, what do you want from me?"

Zhou Chun looked at Zhou Zhengyong with a slightly surprised expression, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

Judging from Zhou Zhengyong's appearance, it is most likely that we are not looking for him for any official business.

"It's like this. Yesterday, when I was on duty, I was chatting with a casual cultivator and happened to hear him mention that he had seen a group of red-tailed monkeys in a certain place."

"Thirteenth brother, you also major in the art of taming beasts. You should know that wherever groups of red-tailed monkeys appear, there is a high probability that there are things that can purify their blood and improve their cultivation."

"My red-tailed monkey has been stuck in the first-level intermediate realm for several years. It has taken a lot of [Beast Spirit Pills] but has not made any breakthroughs. This is probably because its bloodline is not pure enough."

"So this time, I want to ask you, Thirteenth Brother, for a favor. Go to that place with me to see if there is a chance to get spiritual objects to help my spiritual pet break through!"

When Zhou Zhengyong said this, he looked at Zhou Chun expectantly.

It turned out that he came for personal matters.

Zhou Chun understood, and then faced Zhou Zhengyong's expectant gaze. After a moment's hesitation, he nodded and said, "Brother Yong, since you have found me here, given our relationship, there is no reason for me not to help."

After agreeing to this, before Zhou Zhengyong could happily thank him, he continued, "It's just that you, Brother Yong, have only heard about this matter from others and have never seen it with your own eyes. In my opinion, you should first find out the situation and the details of the red-tailed monkeys before taking action."

After he said this, he saw the joy on Zhou Zhengyong's face fade slightly, and embarrassment and shame appeared in his eyes.

call!
Zhou Zhengyong took a deep breath and quickly adjusted his mentality and calmed down. Then he looked at Zhou Chun seriously and nodded and said, "Thirteenth brother, you are right. I came to you as soon as I got the news. It was indeed a bit too hasty."

After that, he said in a deep voice: "Then wait until I have investigated it thoroughly, and then I will come to you for help, Thirteenth Brother."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun sincerely warned, "Brother Yong, you should be careful too. There may be people who used to practice here among those who come to the family to practice!"

"Thank you for your reminder, Thirteenth Brother. I will be careful."

Zhou Zhengyong nodded and left immediately.

Looking at Zhou Zhengyong's departing back, Zhou Chun couldn't help but think of his own rock turtle.

In terms of potential, the Rock Turtle is obviously stronger and more outstanding than Zhou Zhengyong's Red-tailed Monkey. Basically, as long as it is properly trained and the investment is made, it is not impossible to upgrade it to a first-class upper-grade monster within five years.

But by that time, the Rock Turtle's bloodline potential will have reached its limit.

If he wanted to advance the Rock Turtle to the second level in the future, he would have to do the same as Zhou Zhengyong and find ways to find some spiritual objects that could purify or alienate its bloodline.

However, that should be something he should consider after he has established his own foundation. He doesn't need to think too much about it now.

Zhou Zhengyong was undoubtedly a man of action. The next day, Zhou Chun heard that he had asked for leave and left the family.

Then seven days later, Zhou Zhengyong, who had just returned from outside less than a day ago, found Zhou Chun's residence again.

"Thirteenth brother, I have personally gone to the spot to observe and confirmed that there is a group of red-tailed monkeys there, with a number of about twelve or thirteen. The monkey king is a first-class upper-grade monster, and the rest are first-class middle-grade monsters and first-class lower-grade monsters."

"And I have also seen clearly that there are indeed exotic fruits growing in the valley where the monkeys live. If I am not mistaken, they should be the Red Sun Fruit."

In the living room, after Zhou Zhengyong was welcomed in by Zhou Chun, he just sat down and without even drinking his tea, he hurriedly talked about what he discovered when he went out these few days.

His impatient temper also made Zhou Chun speechless.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems normal.

Generally, the personalities of cultivators who major in the art of taming beasts are somewhat similar to those of their spirit pets.

Since Zhou Zhengyong chose the impatient red-tailed monkey as his spiritual pet, his personality is probably similar to that of the spiritual pet.

And whether it is Zhou Chun's previous spiritual pet "Wind Shadow Leopard" or his current spiritual pet Rock Turtle, they both seem to be in line with his cautious and steady character.

At this time, Zhou Chun suppressed the words of persuasion in his heart and followed Zhou Zhengyong's words and said, "According to what you said, Brother Yong, I'm afraid that the two of us alone are not enough to deal with so many red-tailed monkeys. I'm afraid we need to ask a powerful elder to support us!"

Hearing his words, Zhou Zhengyong frowned and sighed softly, "Yes, we need to ask an elder with late Qi training to come with us to ensure safety!"

"But which elder should I invite?"

He frowned and thought about those elders of the Zhou family who had a decent relationship with him.

When asking for help for personal matters, you should only ask people with whom you have a good relationship.

In this way, not only will the issue of compensation be easier to discuss, but it will also be less likely to cause conflicts when taking action.

Therefore, after thinking for a full quarter of an hour, Zhou Zhengyong looked up at Zhou Chun who was quietly waiting for him and said, "How is your twenty-seventh uncle Zhou Jiapeng? His pet is a flying monster beast, the Iron-feathered Eagle, which has been trained to the first-class upper grade and can carry one person. With him as the leader, this trip will definitely be safe."

Zhou Chun immediately nodded and said, "If it's Uncle Twenty-Seven, then there's no problem."

Twenty-seventh uncle Zhou Jiapeng is also a relatively famous figure among the cultivators of the "Jia" generation.

His own cultivation is not particularly outstanding, and he is currently only at the tenth level of the Qi Refining Stage, but the spiritual pet he trained, the Iron-Feathered Eagle, is a rare spiritual pet that can carry people and fly, and its own combat power is also very good.

With this iron-feathered eagle spirit pet by his side, there is almost no one who can stop him in the Qi Refining Stage unless he is ambushed or attacked.

After all, even if one has a flying magic weapon in hand, the magic power and flying speed of a Qi Refining cultivator are far inferior to that of a flying monster beast like the Iron-Winged Eagle.

Zhou Chun was quite surprised that Zhou Zhengyong had the ability to ask his uncle for help.

However, when he thought of Zhou Zhengyong's background, he seemed to understand the reason.

Unlike his ancestors who were all mortals, Zhou Zhengyong's father was also a cultivator of the Zhou family, but he died accidentally while on a mission outside.

If his father were still alive, he would also be a cultivator of the "Jia" generation, and perhaps he had a friendship with his twenty-seventh uncle Zhou Jiapeng.

Of course, there was no need for Zhou Chun to get to the bottom of these things.

After making this plan, Zhou Zhengyong immediately went to look for his twenty-seventh uncle Zhou Jiapeng, while Zhou Chun also started to prepare the things he would need for going out.
