Beast Taming, my intelligence updates daily.

Chapter 179 Could there be some kind of conspiracy?

In fact, Ye Bai wasn't entirely sure whether the Sunflower Emperor's clone could send out the message.

However, the Gospel Church is determined to force Ye Bai into the ancient ancestral home this time.

He could already vaguely see the outline of the ancient ancestral home.

A courtyard shaded by green trees, a crystal-clear pond, and pavilions and towers arranged in a pleasing manner—what an exquisite courtyard!

However, Ye Bai knew that this was just an illusion. The truth was that this was the legendary ancient ancestral home, the place where Fang Ritu disappeared.

These guys clearly have the ability to control fourth-tier armored serpents, so why don't they use the armored serpents to trap and kill me instead of forcing me into this mansion?

Could there be some kind of conspiracy?

The fact that they surrounded them without killing them already made Ye Bai vaguely feel uneasy.

The armored serpent has gradually caught up.

A large number of corpse doves appeared in the sky.

This monstrous beast that feeds on carrion carries a large amount of toxins throughout its body.

They were all watching intently. As soon as they saw the Space Pelican fly slightly upwards, they would make a sharp, piercing sound and fly down from the low sky. Their sharp beaks and rotting bodies made Ye Bai quite wary of these Corpse Doves.

The toxin of the corpse pigeon can cause excruciating pain; it is a pathological toxin.

There was only one way out. The members of the Gospel Church were toying with Ye Bai like cats playing with mice, all in an attempt to force him into the ancient ancestral home.

The grand mansion is getting closer.

Just as they were about to land on the ancient ancestral home, the Space Pelican and Ye Bai came into contact with the spatial ripples.

They instantly felt dizzy and disappeared somewhere.

Before Ye Bai could react, a whooshing sound pierced the air, followed by a delicate shout: Die!!!
Ye Bai released the ever-changing silkworm that emitted a silvery-white light.

It crashed into the wall with a thud, leaving a large hole in it.

"I'm sorry, your sudden appearance made me think something had rushed in."

After realizing he had called the wrong person, Fang Ritu quickly apologized.

She wore rabbit ears on her head and dressed in understated yet luxurious clothes, like those worn by casino dealers.

A very short skirt, her fair and jade-like legs encased in black stockings.

She looked somewhat haggard, and her lips were slightly dry.

She was about the same age as Zhang Lingxue, with sword-like eyebrows and almond lips, and an indescribable air of heroism.

This elegant woman is holding two enormous hammers in her hands.

The Myriad Transformations Silkworm was hit directly by Fang Ritu's attack and immediately fainted.

Only then did Ye Bai notice that the hammer in the beautiful woman's hand had two large eyes.

This looks like an equipment-type alien beast.

Ye Bai's True Dragon Sword can also be considered an equipment-type beast, capable of launching attacks independently or serving as a weapon for its master.

After confirming Ye Bai's identity, the beautiful woman placed the heavy hammer she was holding on the ground.

The ground shook slightly, and the heavy hammer dented deeply.

Ye Bai was dumbfounded. He estimated that the hammer weighed at least 500 kilograms.

A gurgling sound came from Fangri Rabbit's belly.

Fang Ritu blushed, looking very embarrassed.

Do you have any food on you?

“I’ve been stuck here for almost a week, and I’ve run out of food.”

"Nothing here is edible."

"I'm so hungry I'm ready to eat my own flesh."

Ye Bai took out all the food from his pet space.

Fang Ritu immediately began to feast.

She ate her food in big mouthfuls, slurping up the steaming noodles with a slurping sound, while holding a large steamed bun the size of her palm in her hand.

After biting through the outer skin, a large, juicy pork bun was revealed inside, and Fang Ritu's eyes welled up with tears of emotion.

When you're starving, being able to eat a steaming bowl of hot soup noodles and a big meat bun is simply one of life's greatest pleasures.

Ye Bai was dumbfounded when he saw Fang Ritu eat up all the food he could have eaten for a month.

After a hearty meal, Fang Ri Tu drank the nectar secreted by the sunflower queen and felt instantly refreshed.

She rubbed her slightly full stomach and let out a big burp.

At this moment, Fang Ritu blushed when she saw Ye Bai's stunned expression. Her fair and delicate fingers touched each other, and she seemed very nervous.

"My name is Fang Xiaotu."

"What about you?"

Ye Bai inwardly complained that Fang Ri Tu had given himself such a nickname.

“My name is Ye Bai. I was forced into this place by the people of the Gospel Church.”

After hearing Ye Bai's words, Fang Ritu felt slightly dejected.

“I’m not like you. I’ve fallen into the trap of the evangelical church and am stuck here.”

“I’ve visited almost all the houses these past few days.”

"But I found absolutely no clue as to how to get out."

"It's fine during the day, but at night, many ghostly beasts appear in the courtyard."

"I went to great lengths to escape the pursuit of the ghost-type beasts, and the resources in my pet space are almost exhausted."

"Now that I've replenished my energy, I won't eat as much as I did before."

"My talent is that the more I eat, and the better I eat, the more terrifying my fighting power becomes." This is a very delicious prisoner.

Ye Bai almost suspected that this guy had taken some kind of gourmet cell.

What kind of creatures are among these ghost-type monsters?

Ye Bai asked curiously, having learned from the system that light-type skills were the nemesis of spirit sacrifices.

If it's easy to deal with, then I can have the Myriad Transformations Silkworm create a Light Goddess Butterfly clone and use the Holy Light Illumination skill together with the Sunflower Queen.

"Ghost lanterns, ghost candles, ghost umbrellas, and so on, and after these strange beasts died, even their crystal cores didn't fall off."

"I strongly suspect that it is a phantom created by this old ancestral house."

"But the flowers blooming in the courtyard are real."

After hearing Fang Ritu's words, Ye Bai nodded.

"Let's watch it tonight."

"We need to figure out how to get out, otherwise we'll be trapped here and run out of food and ammunition."

"In broad daylight, there shouldn't be any danger in this house, right?"

Ye Bai continued to ask.

"I usually catch up on sleep during the day and fight at night."

"I can tell you about my discovery: this courtyard is planted with many willow and locust trees."

"At night, the willow and locust trees come to life."

"I once killed a willow tree, and all I saw was a large amount of black blood flowing from its trunk before it turned into countless plumes of smoke and disappeared."

“Each willow tree has the strength of the fourth rank, but during the day it becomes an ordinary willow tree.”

After hearing Fang Ritu's description, Ye Bai couldn't help but feel that he was somewhat lucky.

He had read the encyclopedia of strange beasts and knew what this phenomenon was.

This willow tree is called the Yin-Yang Willow, and it is one of the evolution materials for raising Ghost-type pets.

Its unique characteristic is that it transforms into a ferocious-looking willow tree at night, while during the day it becomes an ordinary willow tree.

In other words, this creature only reveals its true form at night; otherwise, it merely lives as a parasite on the willow tree.

Nighttime is also the best time to kill it.

Just as Ye Bai and Fang Ritu were discussing, the members of the Gospel Church gathered together.

"This time, because some members of the Yan Dong Evangelical Fellowship defected, too much information was leaked."

"This resulted in the complete annihilation of all our outposts in Yandong Province."

"We suffered heavy losses this time."

"Fang Ritu just happened to fall into our hands, so we trapped her in the old ancestral house and starved her to death, then turned her into a corpse puppet to serve us."

"This must be a huge slap in the face to the Yan Kingdom's top leadership."

"After all, a special inspector of the Twenty-Eight Constellations has fallen into our hands and suffered endless torment."

At this moment, the eyes of the Gospel Church members fell on the Black Knight.

“Black Knight, what grudge does Ye Bai have against the Blood Saint? You actually managed to get him to reveal the Blood Saint’s secret—the construction method of the Blood Pool—so that Ye Bai could become a sacrifice for the ancient ancestral home’s spirit.”

The Black Knight did not answer the Resurrection Society's question, leaving everyone feeling somewhat bored.

What about Ye Bai's bodyguard?

"Or we could just lock them up in the old ancestral home, where the spirits have already been controlled by the party leader's tomb whip."

"That guy has already killed many armored serpents and is about to break through the encirclement."

"If others find out about our actions, it won't be good news for us."

They are survivors of the Yan Dong Gospel Church. When Chairman Zhang dismantled the outpost, they were on a mission outside, which is why they narrowly escaped death.

This incident was actually a retaliatory action by the Gospel Church against the Yan Kingdom Alliance.

Their faction's leader, a necromancer, was unable to attend due to other commitments, so he personally bestowed his own tomb whip and remotely controlled the spirits of this ancient ancestral home.

However, their strength was generally at the fourth or fifth level, and they were no match for Fang Ritu at all. That's why they set a trap to let Fang Ritu sneak into the ancient ancestral house.

At this moment, Ye Bai was observing the willow and locust trees in the courtyard.

The willow trees have just sprouted tender buds, while the locust trees are covered with locust blossoms.

Ah, isn't this a natural wild vegetable?

Ye Bai plucked a handful of willow leaves and picked the tenderest part of them.

After blanching this part to remove the bitterness, it can be dressed with sesame oil, sour sauce, and chili peppers to make a delicious cold dish.

Locust flowers are a common ingredient in many dishes.

Coat locust flowers with flour, steam them, then toss them with minced garlic, sesame oil, vinegar, and chili peppers—they taste amazing!

Ye Bai took a walk around the courtyard and found that there was plenty of food there.

"help me!"

"It hurts!"

Ye Bai heard the girl's whisper.

Ye Bai turned his head immediately. Who?

Behind him was only Fang Ritu, blinking his eyes.
"Ye Bai, what's wrong?"

Fang Ritu looked at Ye Bai as he suddenly turned around and asked curiously.
"Did you hear cries for help?"

Ye Bai asked curiously.

It's getting late, and I don't have time to write Chapter 3 yet. I'll make it up tomorrow, so there will be four chapters tomorrow. Sorry everyone.
