At Fifth Young Master Qin Muhan's place, Qin Muhan was flirting with a pretty servant girl. The voice of the girl playing in the courtyard was soft and charming, with a hint of charm.
As the son of a concubine from the third branch, although he had the title of Young Master, in reality, it was only in name. The reason was because of the difference between the direct line and the concubine.
What was the direct line of descent? The direct line of descent was the children of the main wife, while the concubine's children were usually born of concubines.
The concubine's children had a low status and were looked down upon. Most of them were not put in important positions. Even if they had outstanding aptitudes, they could only be reduced to the lackeys of the direct line of descent. On the other hand, the direct line of descent enjoyed the best treatment since birth. The family's inherited secret techniques were fully open to them, and endless resources poured into them.
They could easily obtain the achievements that the collateral descendants had worked hard for a long time.
The third branch had three sons. Two of them were the direct line of descent: Fourth Young Master Qin Mubing and Sixth Young Master Qin Muyun. Fifth Young Master Qin Muhan was the son of a concubine. In fact, Fifth Young Master Qin Muhan hated his brothers from the bottom of his heart. This hatred had a long history, and it was like an unbreakable curse in the Qin family's bloodline.
The source of this hatred was the complicated struggle between the direct line of descent and the collateral descendants.
In the courtyard, a figure hurriedly walked over. "Fifth Young Master, there's movement in front of Sixth Young Master's door!"
Qin Muhan threw away the beautiful girl in his arms and suddenly stood up. He ignored the girl's resentful and coquettish gaze and said in a hurried tone. "Tell me, did Sixth Young Master get some benefits again? Did Father send someone to give him the Bone Tempering Pill again? I hate Father for being so biased. Am I not his biological son because I'm born of a concubine? Why is he treating me like this? "
Qin Muhan's eyes revealed a trace of anger. His five fingers were like iron hooks as he grabbed the servant's collar, causing the servant to be unable to breathe.
The Bone Tempering Pill was one of the essential pills for cultivators. When one just started cultivating, with the help of this pill, one could quickly temper one's bones, remove impurities in the body, and improve the quality of one's body. With a good body, one could achieve twice the results with half the effort when cultivating.
The importance of the Bone Tempering Pill to cultivators was self-evident. Moreover, the Bone Tempering Pill was also very expensive in the market. It also cost 30 taels of gold. Thirty to forty taels of gold and a hundred taels of silver. If one wasn't from a wealthy family, it would be difficult to buy one even if they sold their house and body.
Qin Muhan's aptitude was average. At his age, it was the time for him to catch up. He needed this kind of medicinal pill. How could he not be angry when he heard that his father was giving medicinal pills to his brothers?
"N-no, Fifth Young Master, the Master didn't give the Sixth Young Master any Bone Tempering Pills!" The servant stammered, his face red and trembling.
"Could it be the Body Tempering Pill?" Qin Muhan's expression changed, and the anger in his eyes grew.
"That's not it either!" The servant trembled in fear and waved his hands repeatedly.
"What's that? You bastard! Speak clearly! "Qin Muhan glared at him as a cold aura surged from his body.
The servant shuddered and hurriedly told him everything he knew in one breath. "It's the Sixth Young Master. The Sixth Young Master went out with the Ninth Young Master. He seems to have discovered the Ninth Young Master's secret?"
"Ninth Young Master, could it be that Qin Feng, that trash, still have some secret?" Qin Muhan threw the servant aside as a strange light flashed in his eyes. "Wasn't he crippled by me? How did he recover so quickly? It seems that this Qin Feng really has some secret!"
"No, I can't let the Sixth Young Master monopolize all the benefits!" Qin Muhan's face turned cold as he thought of his younger brother. Just as he was about to walk out of the door, he suddenly stopped. He muttered to himself.
"Should I inform the Seventh Young Master? Now that I've pledged my allegiance to the Seventh Young Master, I can keep the Fourth Young Master in check. Although the Sixth Young Master doesn't have a trace of sincerity and only wants to get some benefits, the Seventh Young Master's tyrannical strength is not something I can compare to. That little bastard, the Sixth Young Master, is favored by my father. Every time my father secretly sends him pills and cultivation methods, he thinks that I don't know. Now, the Sixth Young Master is already at the Peak of the Second Firmament of the Martial Path. He's only one step away from the Third Firmament of the Martial Path. I can only rely on my own efforts. Although I deducted Qin Feng's monthly salary and temporarily gave him an extra set of Bone Tempering Pills, it's still very difficult for me to break through to the Middle of the Second Firmament of the Martial Path. I'm still far away from the Third Firmament of the Martial Path. How can I fight the Sixth Young Master who is at the Peak of the Second Firmament of the Martial Path? "
After a moment of hesitation, his eyes flashed as he pondered. "No, I can't inform the Seventh Young Master. The Seventh Young Master is too powerful. I'm far from being his opponent. If he knows, even if there's a secret, I won't be able to get anything. It's better to inform the Eldest Young Master, Qin Shu. His aptitude is average. Although he's at the Third Firmament of the Martial Path, he's not strong and has always been suppressed by the Seventh Young Master. Although he seems to be diligent and sincere on the surface, I know that he must be resentful and depressed in his heart. If I join forces with him, it's enough to restrain the Sixth Young Master. After we get the benefits, we can share them equally! "
Thinking of this, Qin Muhan's eyes lit up. He summoned two trustworthy servants and ordered. "There are many spies of the other Young Masters in front of our mansion. You two go out through the underground secret passage and immediately find the Eldest Young Master. Tell him that I have something important to discuss with him and ask him to come quickly. Remember, don't leak the news!"
"Yes, Fifth Young Master!" The two servants quickly walked into the house.
"Old Ninth, Old Ninth, I'd like to see what tricks you're playing. Is it like what the patriarch said, that Qin Zhan really has a secret for you? Whether you have a secret or not, it's all mine! "Seeing the two servants leave, Qin Muhan muttered to himself with a sneer in his eyes.
… …
"Hehe, another dog is following me!" Less than a quarter of an hour after leaving the Qiyang Mountain Range, Qin Feng found traces of someone following him. The Old Devil's mind was strange and cunning. Thinking of the last time he was followed, he knew in a moment that he was definitely being watched by someone.
As for who it was, it was easy to guess. It was either the Qin Family Head's men or one of the other Young Masters. In any case, no matter who it was, they were definitely up to no good.
Although he didn't know why the other party was following him, Qin Feng had plenty of ways to get rid of them. He walked along the Qiyang Mountain Range and came to the outer ring of the Desolate Mountain Range. He began to walk around, specifically going to remote and difficult places.
"Bastard, this trick again. You want to use the terrain to get rid of this Young Master? Dream on! Do you think this Young Master will fall for your trick twice in a row? This time, this Young Master brought the Scaled Hounds! " Behind him, Qin Muyun sneered. Behind him, several guards were leading a few strange small dog-type Vicious Beasts to sniff around.
The Scaled Hounds were extremely ferocious small dog-type Vicious Beasts with sensitive noses and short limbs. They were extremely good at tracking. Most importantly, they were loyal and had slippery scales like snake scales all over their bodies. With a little training, they could be used to guard a house.
"Young Master, not good, the Ninth Young Master is missing!" Suddenly, a courageous guard cried out in alarm.
Qin Muyun flew into a rage and looked up. Sure enough, Qin Feng was nowhere to be found in the vast mountain forest. He was flustered and exasperated as he scolded furiously. "A bunch of trash, don't you know how to chase?"
"We can't!" Several guards drooped their heads.
Qin Muyun was so angry that he laughed. Just as he was about to ask why, very quickly, he heard a groaning sound. He turned his head and couldn't help but be dumbfounded. He saw a few Scaled Hounds moving up and down.
He pointed blankly at the Scaled Hounds and asked. "What are these beasts doing?"
"Mating!" Several servants answered honestly.
Qin Muyun flew into a rage. "Are your dog eyes blind? This Young Master asks you, why don't they mate normally? Why do they mate as soon as they come out to work?!"
The servants didn't say anything. They were also muttering in their hearts. These Scaled Hounds obviously hadn't entered the mating period yet, so why would they do this at this crucial time?
… …
Seeing that he had shaken off the group of people, Qin Feng turned to look at the forest and sneered. They thought that they could track his whereabouts with just the Scaled Hounds? That was simply wishful thinking. He had long been on guard against this move. Although he was wandering left and right in the mountain forest, in fact, he had taken advantage of the opportunity just now to spread a Lust Powder in the air of the forest. The fragrance of this medicine was very faint, and ordinary creatures couldn't smell it. However, the Scaled Hounds' noses were very sensitive. They could easily smell the fragrance and be stimulated, causing them to go into estrus.
