CHAPTER 22
Reforming Wu Ling
The three of them returned to the courtyard. As soon as they closed the door, Tiger Chu cheered loudly.
Shui Liu Xiang, who was standing beside Tiger Chu, was also flushed with excitement.
From today onwards, Chu Xingyun would be the new Patriarch of the Chu Clan. He would no longer have to endure such humiliation.
"That's enough. If you keep shouting, you're going to tear the roof off." Chu Xingyun rolled his eyes in annoyance. He took out a few jade bottles and placed them on the table. He said, "Take these bottles of Body Tempering Pills. Quickly condense the Wu Ling."
When Tiger Chu heard this, he immediately opened his eyes wide and said, "Did I hear wrongly? Young master, these bottles of Body Tempering Pills are for me?"
"It's fine if you don't want it. Give it all to Flowing Fragrance." Chu Xingyun pursed his lips and pretended to put away the jade bottle.
Tiger Chu hurriedly took a few steps forward and reached out his hand to grab the two jade bottles. He chuckled and said, "Young Master, how can I not accept these pills?"
As he spoke, Chu Hu hid the Body Tempering Pills in his clothes. His expression immediately amused Shui Liu Xiang, causing her to let out a bell-like laughter.
"You're so cunning." Chu Xingyun also laughed, but he quickly became serious. He said to Tiger Chu, "Just now, I fought with Chu Hai and gained some insights. I might need to go into seclusion to cultivate. During the few days I'm in seclusion, I have something to tell you."
"Young master, please." Seeing Chu Pingtian's serious face, Tiger Chu stopped joking around.
"A few days ago, I reached an agreement with the Hundred Treasures Tower to develop the spiritual material resources of Phoenix Perch Mountain together. This matter is very important to the Chu family, so I want to give you full authority to handle it."
"Full authority?" Tiger Chu was stunned as he looked at Chu Xingyun in surprise.
Chu Xingyun nodded and said, "That's right. You'll be in charge of the whole thing. Nobody else has the right to ask about it. Besides, you have to choose some trustworthy people and train them well to fight against Chu Pingtian."
Just like what Chu Xingyun said, once Chu Hai died, he and Chu Pingtian became enemies.
Reasonably speaking, Chu Pingtian would not let go of Chu Xingyun. He would try his best to destroy Chu Xingyun.
If Chu Xingyun wanted to gain a foothold, he had to have his own forces to contend against them.
And the matter of mining the spiritual materials of Feng's Nest Mountain was the perfect opportunity!
"I understand." When Tiger Chu heard Chu Xingyun's words, not only did he not refuse, his eyes were filled with excitement as if he wanted to show off his skills.
Then, Chu Xingyun told Tiger Chu about the cooperation. After listening, Tiger Chu had a lot of opinions about this cooperation. Some of his ideas were very good and made Chu Xingyun's eyes brighten.
"If Tiger Chu is in charge of this, nothing will go wrong. I just didn't expect him to do such a good job and give me such a surprise." Chu Xingyun looked at Tiger Chu with satisfaction.
In his previous life, not long after Chu Xingyun left West Wind City, he heard that Tiger Chu left the Chu family and was recognized by a certain trading company.
Within a short year, Tiger Chu entered the trading company and became an advisor. He showed great insight and ability.
Tiger Chu and Chu Xingyun depended on each other since they were young. During the most difficult times, Tiger Chu did not leave and silently supported Chu Xingyun.
His loyalty and ability made him the best person to manage the mining of spiritual materials.
They talked until late at night. Then, the three returned to their rooms.
After entering the space of the Reincarnation Stone, Chu Xingyun did not start cultivating immediately. Instead, he was in deep thought.
"Although there are many twists and turns in this Family Meeting, it is not far from what I expected. After Qin Shan's words, I believe many people will choose to support me and give up on Chu Pingtian." Chu Xingyun concluded in his heart.
It could be said that Chu Xingyun was fully prepared for this clan meeting. Everything was under his control.
Even if Qin Shan did not make a move in the end, he still had many ways to escape.
However, it was too risky. Not only would he expose his trump card, but it would also cause great damage to Chu Xingyun's body.
After all, he was no longer the all-powerful Martial Emperor. He was only in the Fourth Sky of Body Tempering Realm. If he wanted to defeat Chu Pingtian, who was in the Second Sky of Spirit Gathering Realm, he would have to pay a great price.
"Power. I still need power!" Thinking of this, Chu Xingyun's eyes shone sharply. He reached out his right hand. A gray halo appeared on his palm.
This grey halo emitted layers upon layers of dim light, and actually condensed into a wolf beast with a dense evil aura. Its fur was pitch-black, and its fangs were dense. Especially its sharp wolf claws, they emitted a blood-red color that represented slaughter.
If Chu Pingtian was here and saw this, he would be so shocked that his jaw would drop. This wolf beast was Chu Hai's Wu Ling, the Spirit Demon Wolf!
It turned out that when Chu Xingyun killed Wu Ling, he used the Nameless Art. Without anyone noticing, he swallowed the Spirit Demon Wolf into his body and suppressed it. He only released it now.
"Do you hate me?" Chu Xingyun could feel the Spirit Demon Wolf's cold eyes. He smiled faintly.
Wu Ling belonged to the spirit lineage of warriors.
Before Chu Hai died, he was filled with hatred for Chu Xingyun. That resentment naturally affected the Spirit Demon Wolf. It was filled with hatred for Chu Xingyun.
The Spirit Demon Wolf stared coldly at Chu Xingyun. It roared angrily. Then, it charged forward and pounced on Chu Xingyun like a ghost.
The red glowing Spirit Demon Wolf swept its claws, wanting to tear Chu Xingyun into pieces.
"Even Chu Hai died in my hands. What's the use of your resistance?" Chu Xingyun held Wu Ling's sword. The moment the Spirit Demon Wolf moved, he made his move.
The sound of wind blew. Chu Xingyun appeared in front of the Spirit Demon Wolf. He stabbed with his sword and almost instantly cut off the Spirit Demon Wolf's claws.
"Suppress!" A cold shout came from Chu Xingyun's mouth. In the palm of his left hand, a strange black flame suddenly rose. He heavily slammed it between the Spirit Demon Wolf's eyebrows.
The Spirit Demon Wolf let out a mournful cry. Then, its body began to tremble. It was like ice that had encountered a flame. It began to melt and finally turned into a thumb-sized grey crystal.
"In my previous life, the first time I swallowed Wu Ling was the second stage. I felt that I still had some strength left. I don't know if I can swallow the third stage Wu Ling this time." Chu Xingyun whispered as he picked up the grey crystal.
Transforming Wu Ling was definitely not easy.
Once a cultivator began to transform Wu Ling, they would have to endure endless pain. If Wu Ling's level was too high, this pain could very well be fatal.
This was why Chu Xingyun was so cautious. The third stage Wu Ling should be his current limit.
Taking out all the pills and arranging them in a row, Chu Xingyun adjusted his state to the peak. With a slight thought, he wrapped the grey crystal with his spiritual energy and slowly merged it with Wu Ling's sword.
"Ah!" As soon as the grey crystal merged with Wu Ling's sword, Chu Xingyun felt a heart-wrenching pain. On Wu Ling's sword, rays of grey light suddenly bloomed.
These rays of grey light were very strange. It seemed that each ray contained the aura of the Spirit Demon Wolf. After merging with Wu Ling's sword, the sword began to fluctuate. It was like a ghost, emitting an eerie cold air.
"As expected of the third stage Wu Ling. The transformation has just begun, but Wu Ling's sword has the characteristics of the Spirit Demon Wolf." Chu Xingyun raised his head and looked at the mutated Wu Ling's sword. His heart was filled with anticipation.
However, what Chu Xingyun did not know was that the moment he entered the state of cultivation.
The Reincarnation Heavenly Book, which was quietly placed on the stone platform, trembled without any warning. A faint light was emitted from it and enveloped the entire space within it.
