I'm just a swineherd, not a beastmaster.

Gao Yuan lowered his voice and looked more serious: "Junior sister, I see signs of activity in the courtyard. I will go to the door and talk to the people inside to distract their attention. You are good at physical skills, so you can lie in ambush nearby and find an opportunity to sneak in and gather intelligence."

"But..." Ye Ni hesitated, "What if someone powerful or strong comes out? Should I still go in?"

Gao Yuan shook his head: "Of course not. If it's as you said, just run away, and I will find an excuse to leave, and pretend that I have never seen these top-grade beast-cultivating pills."

"I understand." Ye Ni relaxed her expression a little.

"Take this invisibility talisman, it will help you sneak in." As he spoke, Gao Yuan took out a piece of yellow talisman paper from his storage bag. There was a mysterious rune drawn on it. It was a low-level invisibility talisman.

"Yeah." Ye Ni took the invisibility talisman, said nothing more, and jumped to the side to hide.

After Ye Ni hid, Gao Yuan took a deep breath and walked forward to knock on the door.

"Is there anyone home?"

In the wooden house, Yuan Feng finally finished his work and was about to lie down on the recliner to rest when he suddenly heard someone knocking at the door. He responded unhappily:

"Who?"

An old neighbor from the village came to visit?

Yuan Feng stood up in confusion, the voice didn't sound like that of a villager.

This nameless mountain village had only a few households, but he was very familiar with it. He knew the voice was from a villager the moment he heard it.

If he is not from the village, who else could he be?

When he walked into the yard, Yuan Feng saw the person clearly. It was a strange face and he didn't recognize him.

"Who are you."

Yuan Feng looked young. Gao Yuan was stunned for a moment, then bowed slowly: "Fairy boy, I am a casual cultivator passing by here. I wonder who the head of the family is?"

Fairchild?

What the hell?

There is no such thing as a pigherd fairy boy.

Yuan Feng was also stunned.

"You are asking who owns this yard, right? I am the owner here, the only one, there is no other owner."

Gao Yuan slowly raised his head, his heart filled with turmoil.

Just one person?

Gao Yang tried hard to use his spiritual sense to observe the young man in front of him. There was no doubt that his aura was that of a mortal, without any fluctuations of spiritual energy.

It is absolutely impossible for a mortal to possess so many top-grade beast-cultivating pills. There must be someone behind him!

Thinking of this, Gao Yuan calmed down and organized his words again: "Xian Tong, my last name is Gao Mingyuan, I am a decent cultivator, I have long heard of your family master's name, I would like to pay my respects to you, do you have a chance?"

Yuan Feng looked carefully at Gao Yuan, who called himself Gao Yuan, and felt contempt for him.

You were just asking who the head of the family is, but now you're saying you've heard of him for a long time. This is obviously a lie.

Are you treating yourself like a fool?

He also looked at the other person with caution.

This area is not peaceful. If the other party is a bandit who comes to explore the way, it will be a big problem.

"Gao Yuan, right? Then you've come to the wrong place. There's no master here. I have nothing but a shabby house. I'm penniless. I have a pig, but it's skinny and has no meat!"

"And he's sick!" Yuan Feng added, fearing that the other party was a bandit who was coming to steal the pigs he raised.

When Gao Yuan heard Yuan Feng's nervous expression, he was certain that the big boss behind Yuan Feng was not at home, so he gave a wink and asked Ye Ni, who was lying in ambush nearby, to start the action.

Ye Ni saw Gao Yuan's look and understood what he meant. She immediately activated the invisibility talisman and used her body skills to sneak into the pigpen nearby.

Seeing that Ye Ni had gone deep into the conversation, Gao Yuan quickly found a topic to distract Yuan Feng.

"Xian Tong, your beast-cultivating pill is of really good quality?"

"What kind of pills are you making?" Yuan Feng looked at him as if he was a fool. "Isn't this soybean? It's for feeding pigs."

Feed the pigs?

Gao Yuan was stunned.

Random reaction.

He is powerful, he must be powerful.

The powerful person behind this young man is extraordinary. He calls the captive spiritual beasts pigs and feeds them top-grade animal-cultivating pills as soybeans.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel secretly happy in his heart.

As long as he finds out that the owner of this place is really not here, he will be rich!

"Why, you raise pigs too? Why are you so concerned about soybeans?"

Yuan Feng didn't know what the other party was thinking, so he could only chat casually, trying to make the other party give up the idea of ​​robbing him.

"Oh, and I also raised some small animals."

Since the other party compared the spirit beast to a domestic animal, Gao Yuan felt that he should not be too pretentious, so he called the spirit beast a little beast.

"Little beast, aren't those just chickens and ducks? How much meat can chickens and ducks have? You have to raise pigs, only pigs have meat..."

No, Yuan Feng suddenly realized that he was trying to fool the bandit in front of him, so why was he showing off? He quickly changed his words.

"Of course, the amount of meat you can get depends on your skills. Just like when I raise pigs, if I don't have the skills, they will just be skin and bones."

"How could it be possible?" Gao Yuan showed a surprised look, "With these soybeans, it should be possible to grow it."

"Soybeans?" Yuan Feng looked at the bamboo basket, reacted, and quickly explained, "These soybeans look good but are useless. You won't grow meat if you eat them. If you don't believe me, take them back and feed them to your dog and try." Yuan Feng hurriedly explained, but he didn't dare to reveal the truth.

The pigs he raises are all his property, and he must not let them be targeted by bandits.

After hearing what the other party said, Gao Yuan was so shocked that he was speechless for a moment.

From the sound of it, the other party wants to sell this top-grade beast-cultivating pill to me.

"How much are you selling these soybeans?"

"Sell it? No, it's only half a basket, not worth much. Take it if you want."

Yuan Feng spoke generously, but his heart was bleeding.

That was half a basket of the best soybeans, which could help the pigs in the pigsty grow a lot of fat.

If he didn't want to get rid of the bandits in front of him, he would not be willing to part with these soybeans.

What he didn't know was that Gao Yuan's heart was already in turmoil at this moment.

How magnanimous and generous it is to give away the top-grade beast-cultivating pills to others casually.

It is not something that a powerful person can accomplish.

Gao Yuan suddenly felt a little regretful. If he had known that the other party would easily give him the top-grade beast-cultivating pill, he would never have let his junior sister sneak in no matter what.

If you offend the big boss behind the scenes, things will get serious.

He changed his mind and was just about to take advantage of the situation to get the pills in the basket when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a purple shadow passing by.

It’s my junior sister!

Gao Yuan felt uneasy. Why was his junior sister running so fast?

He didn't even signal to himself.

Something is wrong!

Gao Yuan's outstretched hand froze.

"What? Don't want it?"

Yuan Feng looked at the other party in confusion.

It's a trap!

Gao Yuan suddenly came to his senses.

No matter how wealthy and powerful one is, it is impossible to be generous to a stranger.

While regretting his greed, Gao Yuan quickly made an excuse:

"No merit, no reward. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

Before he could finish his words, Gao Yuan left in a hurry.

Yuan Feng looked at the other person's receding back and breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the other party believes that I am a poor guy.

I am indeed a poor guy, but the pigs in the pigsty are quite fat, so I have to be careful.

After standing guard in the yard for a while and making sure that there was no one around, Yuan Feng went into the house and continued to rest.

……

Red maple mountainside.

Ye Ni was breathing heavily, looking frightened.

"Junior sister, what's wrong with you? What did you see in there that makes you so confused?"

Gao Yuan caught up with his junior sister and said with disdain.

"Yes... yes... big..."

"What's so big? Explain it carefully."

"Big demon! Such strong demonic power!"

"Big demon? Junior sister, have you forgotten what we are doing? Are you scared like this by a big demon?"

"Not just one, but eleven, and each one is at the ninth level!"

"Ninth level?!"

Hearing this, Gao Yuan was stunned for a moment.

A ninth-order demon beast is only one step away from transforming into a human form, and its strength is comparable to that of a human cultivator in the early stages of the out-of-body realm.

The levels of cultivation that Gao Yuan can reach are: Qi Refining Stage, Foundation Establishment Stage, Golden Core Stage, Nascent Soul Stage, and Out-of-Body Stage.

In his mind, the out-of-body stage was the ceiling, but he didn't expect to see a monster equivalent to the out-of-body stage in a remote mountain village.

This level of realm, if displayed, can influence the existence of one side.

You have to know that as a large sect, the Hongfan Beast Sect can only command two eighth-rank spirit beasts, whose strength is equivalent to that of a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage. There is one for the sect master and one for the great elder.

What does eleven heads mean?

If their Hongfan Beast Sect could subdue all the spirit beasts, they could flatten the Western Desolate Continent and become the number one immortal sect.

"That's not all. There's also a giant pig demon inside. Its aura is unfathomable. I really can't tell what it is. I'm afraid it's a transformed giant demon!"

"Transformation? That means he is at least at the demon king level. Junior sister, are you sure you are not mistaken?"

After transforming, the monster's body is infinitely close to that of humans, and its intelligence is fully awakened. It knows how to occupy a mountain and command the small monsters in a certain area, so it is called the Monster King.

Is the demon king hiding in this small courtyard?

Gao Yuan was a little bit unconvinced.

"I'm sure, Senior Brother, you know that I have a talent for seeing the realm of monsters, I'm sure I can't be wrong."

"It turns out that he raised a pig demon at the Demon King level. No wonder he said he was a pig farmer..." Gao Yuan fell into a low murmur.

"What should we do now, Brother? Should we go back?"

"go back!"

"Go back? We can't handle those monsters."

"When I say go back, I mean go back to the sect."

Ye Ni heaved a sigh of relief. Things had developed to a stage where the two of them, who were at the foundation building stage, could not handle it anymore. They had to go back and ask the sect for instructions.

"What should we do if we haven't tamed the spirit beast yet?" Thinking of going back, Ye Ni was troubled again.

"This is not the time to consider such trivial matters. This is a powerful person who can tame the demon king. Go back and report to the sect. If the sect can establish a relationship with him, you and I will have made great contributions."

"That's true, let's go."

"go!"

The two of them flew up at the same time, transformed into two purple shadows and disappeared into the distance, and the forest returned to silence.
