A ray of sunshine in the early morning breaks through the mist, and the dew reflects the brilliant brilliance.
"Good morning, young master!"
The maid greeted Bai Ze.
The handsome young man smiled and nodded: "Good morning!"
Hearing the young man's approachable greetings, the maids on both sides were shocked.
"The young master's temper has improved since he recovered from his injury."
"It's not because I have become a disabled person that I can no longer dominate as before!"
"I see, the Bai family will be inherited by the second young master in the future. We have to please the second young master. If the second young master can be taken into the house, we will be able to turn around."
Several maids were talking quietly, but their voices reached Bai Ze's ears without any hindrance.
Bai Ze chuckled, of course the eldest young master of the Bai family could not be so approachable, but he was not the original eldest son of the Bai family.
As soon as he woke up, he traveled back in time to seize the body of the young man of the Bai family who was seriously injured and dying. He inherited the memory of the young man of the Bai family and knew that this was a very dangerous world where monsters were rampant.
In this world, only monsters can master extraordinary power, and humans cannot practice it. In order to survive, the sages of the human race tried their best to develop a unique cultivation system, integrating the soul of monsters with their own hearts, and thus the imperial demon soul was born.
Fighting sorcerer.
But if you want to become a demon master, you must have an acuity in your heart. Those who know nothing can only become a mortal.
Only by becoming a demon master can one be qualified to become a master in this world.
The Bai Mansion is a wealthy family in Yong'an City, Jingzhou, during the Great Chu Dynasty. Although they have no official status, their ancestors have been demon masters of the sixth level. Their influence is deeply rooted in Yong'an City, and even the city's government officials will give them some face.
The former eldest son of the Bai family relied on his family background to bully men and women in Yong'an City. Although he was good-looking enough to make any woman fall in love with him at first sight, he could not be called a charming man, but a real bully.
What's even more frustrating is that Bai Ze's talent is astonishing. He was found to have the Seven Orifices Exquisite Heart when he was born. As long as he starts practicing, he can cultivate to the level of seventh-level demon master without any constraints, leading the Bai family to reach the top again.
Such a genius is naturally doted on by the Bai family.
It is a pity that Mr. Bai, who is used to running rampant in Yong'an City, was severely injured two days ago. Even his precious heart was taken away, and he almost couldn't be saved.
Of course, the Bai family will not just let it go. This will ruin the future of their Bai family.
Bai Ze's father, who is now the current head of the Bai family, and his uncles from the ancestral hall all came out to seek an explanation for Bai Ze. Unfortunately, they all came back in despair, only to save Bai Ze's life.
, said nothing more.
This lets everyone with a discerning eye know that the Bai family has offended a great person.
Knocking on the door of his father Bai Xunshan's study, after receiving a response, Bai Ze opened the door and walked in.
"Father is well."
"Ze'er is here."
Seeing Bai Ze, a trace of regret and heartache flashed in Bai Xunshan's eyes.
Although Bai Ze's life was saved, his talent was lost.
The exquisite heart with seven orifices was taken away. Although the sixth-level flower demon left by the ancestors in the ancestral hall was invited to renew Bai Ze's life, even the heart grew back, but the newly grown heart did not have the seven orifices, only the remaining seven orifices were left.
The most common thing.
From the family's hope to being ordinary, this is something no one wants to see.
"Dad, why did you come to see me?"
"I have three things for you."
Bai Xunshan took out a booklet, which was full of pictures and text, like an encyclopedia.
Bai Ze has seen this book many times in his memory. It records the monsters in the Bai family's monster hunting ground. When the children of the Bai family need to contract monsters, they can choose the monster contract in the monster hunting ground. And in this
What is recorded in this booklet is the group of monsters with the best qualifications in the monster hunting ground. Only the children of the Bai family who have contributed to the family can choose from here.
Bai Ze used to be the hope of the family, so the demon souls contracted with him were of course the best. Unfortunately, as the exquisite heart of Qiqiao was taken away, the demon souls contracted in the heart were also lost.
Now that the heart has grown again, although it only has one orifice, it is qualified to become a demon master and has the right to choose demon souls.
"Originally, with your current talent, you are not qualified to choose monsters from here, but I will make an exception for you this time. From now on, even if you don't have the talent of Qiqiao Exquisite Heart, you will still have to practice hard. Do you understand?"
Bai Xunshan said sincerely that this is the only thing he can do for Bai Ze as a father now.
Bai Ze flipped through the album. He was already familiar with the monsters in it. His predecessor had seen them many times. The monsters with good qualifications had already been chosen by him, and the ones left behind were those that his predecessor looked down on.
"While you are watching, my father will tell you two other things."
Bai Xunshan pondered for a moment, as if he was organizing his words.
"Before, your talent was amazing. The family originally found a teacher for you to teach you personally, but he kept delaying it because of the impact of seclusion on the Seventh Turn. As a result, now that you have encountered such a thing, I am afraid that others will not accept it anymore.
You, you have to be mentally prepared!"
This kind of thing would undoubtedly be another blow to Bai Ze, but Bai Xunshan felt that it would be better to tell Bai Ze if he kept it a secret.
Frustration can make people grow. Now that Bai Ze has lost his talent, he can only become stronger in all aspects.
Bai Ze looked at the album and nodded indifferently.
He had heard that this teacher he had never met before was a close friend of his grandfather. Because his grandfather had saved the other person's life, the other party promised that if the Bai family asked him for something, he would definitely agree.
If the Bai family asked the other party to accept Bai Ze as their disciple, then the other party might still agree, but it would be easy to separate the relationship between the two families.
If Bai Ze still has talent, the two parties will naturally become closer and closer, but now that Bai Ze has no talent, even if the other party accepts him as a disciple, he may be left to fend for himself, just using the name of a disciple.
Bai Ze's grandfather has died a long time ago, but after years of training, he has become a sixth-level demon master and is attacking the seventh-level demon master. This is a big backer. If he settles the relationship with the Bai family, it will be more than the gain is worth the loss.
Seeing that Bai Ze didn't care, Bai Xunshan nodded and refused to make a fuss over the loss. Bai Ze had grown up much more than before.
"There is one more thing that is your lifelong event!"
Hearing this, Bai Ze was stunned. In his memory, his family had never told him about marriage.
"A few months ago, an imperial edict came from the royal family in the capital city, and a marriage was arranged for you and Princess Qingyang. Our Bai family is just an ordinary family, but the royal family actually knows your name, and even personally arranged a marriage for you. I'm afraid it has already been
I know your talent."
The fact that Bai Ze possesses the Seven-Orificed Exquisite Heart was only known within the Bai family, and only a few elders of the family knew about it. It was only after Bai Ze had his heart ripped out that everyone became aware of it.
But the royal family of the divine capital had received the imperial edict a month ago, so they must have known about it for a long time.
"The King of Zhennan is the younger brother of His Majesty, who is in charge of Jingzhou, and Princess Qingyang is the youngest daughter of the King of Zhennan. She is the most favored. Although she has never heard of any talent or fame, she is a member of the royal family after all. I, the Bai family, are just
For ordinary people, His Majesty personally arranged the marriage. He must have taken a fancy to your talent and wanted to bring you into the royal family. This was originally a good thing for the Bai family, but now that your talent is gone, if you really accept the imperial edict, it will be a blessing to the Bai family.
We still don’t know whether it is a disaster, but if we don’t accept it, it will definitely be a disaster!”
When Bai Xunshan said this, his brows were already furrowed.
This was originally a good time for the Bai family to rise, but because of Bai Ze's accident, it plummeted, and it might even become a talisman for the Bai family's death.
Now Bai Xunshan can't even figure out whether His Majesty the Emperor of Chu wants to win over the Bai family or destroy the Bai family with this imperial edict.
"And the most important thing is that the imperial edict arrived at Yong'an City at the same time as your accident. At that time, we chased the assassin all the way to Qingyang County in Jingzhou before losing his trace. I'm afraid there is some connection."
Qingyang County in Jingzhou is the fiefdom of Princess Qingyang, and it is also one of the residences of King Zhennan. If King Zhennan did all this, then the Bai family really cannot afford to offend, and they don’t even have the heart to take revenge.
Dare to have it.
The Bai family only had a sixth-level demon master in their ancestors, and now the highest one in the family is only a third-level demon master. The King of Zhennan is a seventh-level demon master. There are countless sixth-level demon masters in the Zhennan King’s army. How can the Bai family take revenge?
?
"Is this because King Zhennan looks down on me?"
Bai Ze gave a wry smile, the murder of his predecessor came out of nowhere.
Even if he doesn't like her, he can break off the engagement or something, but he can still say not to bully young people into poverty, but directly kill people and steal their hearts. This is really cruel.
Of course, it is also possible that King Zhennan was very dissatisfied with Bai Ze's previous style in Yong'an City. Even if Bai Ze was extremely talented, it was still related to Princess Qingyang's lifelong happiness.
"There is no confirmation that it must be King Zhennan who did it. He just happened to disappear there, making people suspicious. What's more, if King Zhennan doesn't like my Bai family, there is no need to use assassination to deal with us.
"
The Bai family has no official status, so the people are in trouble and the officials are fighting, not to mention the King of Zhennan, who can make the Bai family disappear with just one sentence.
Bai Xunshan glanced at Bai Ze, sighed, and said again:
"The imperial edict has arrived. The envoys have been staying in Yong'an City in the past few days. The news of your recovery from injuries has been known to them. I am afraid that they will come to announce the edict soon. Once the edict is received, King Zhennan will also send someone to come, in name only.
It depends on you, but what you actually want to do is unpredictable!"
His Majesty the Emperor took a fancy to Bai Ze's talent, but granted marriage to the daughter of King Zhennan. No one can guess what his intentions were.
Once His Majesty the Emperor's imperial edict is issued, it is impossible to take it back. Even if Bai Ze is disabled, he will still accept it. But what King Zhennan thinks, that is the matter of King Zhennan. Our Majesty the Emperor is
He never cares about other people, even though King Zhennan is very close to His Majesty the Emperor.
The Bai family seems to be the same as the Tu emperor in Yong'an City, but when they really face the top existence, they still have no room for resistance.
"If the soldiers come to block you, let the water come and the earth covers you. I won't lose even if I picked up a wife for nothing!"
Bai Ze smiled and said that he could only comfort himself in this way.
"The most urgent thing is to improve your own strength."
It’s not a good feeling to be a slave to someone else, but if you want to change the situation, you can only make yourself stronger.
Bai Ze looked at the album carefully and finally chose a mulberry tree demon.
"The contracted tree demon can increase my physical defense, and the mulberry tree demon can also heal injuries. This type of healing demon soul is very popular. The Bai family can develop to such a scale because there are flower demons that can heal injuries, but now there are no
Among the flower demons with good qualifications, let’s choose the mulberry tree demon.”
After Bai Ze chose the monster, his men quickly sent a small sapling, which was somewhat different from the mulberry tree monster in the album.
"Although this is just a sapling, it is born to transform into monsters. It has the best qualifications among the new batch of monsters, and it has not yet been registered!"
When Bai Ze heard this, he thought this was an unexpected surprise. He bit the tip of his tongue and spurted out blood, making a contract with the mulberry sapling.
