"Master! I've bought the mythical Qilin you requested!"

A dusty servant rushed in from outside, leading a "ferocious" beast.

Before even seeing the figure of the young master he was talking about, he started shouting so loudly that everyone in the Ye family and even the whole Fengcheng knew about it!

"You! Pull the rope tighter and don't let that stinky thing get close to me!"

Just as the servant leading the "divine beast" stepped into the gate, a young girl who was supporting a white-haired old man not far ahead suddenly turned around after hearing the sound, looked at the "ferocious" divine beast, pointed at it and told it not to approach her, and immediately scolded it.

"Smelly stuff? This is the mythical Qilin beast... My young master wants it, there's no time to waste!"

The servant was too lazy to continue talking nonsense and hurriedly walked past the woman, wanting to quickly deliver this "divine beast" to his cynical young master.

"You said this thing is a Qilin?"

Seeing that the servant refused to listen and insisted on letting the naughty thing get close to her, the girl got so angry that she covered her nose and kicked the "divine beast Qilin" several meters away!

"You dare to kick my young master's divine beast?"

"Do you really think I'm a fool? This guy is a pig!"

The girl's chest rose and fell, and for a moment she was completely speechless at the words of the man in front of her.

"I told my young master it was a pig, but he said it was the mythical beast Qilin!"

Seeing the girl's equally incredible expression, the servant stood aside helplessly, smiling bitterly and lowering his head!

"Girl! Control your temper and don't forget why you came here today!" The old man who was supported by the girl shook his head helplessly and said.

"I've heard that the Ye family's young master is an uneducated fool who is often deceived. I never thought that this brat could even call a pig a Qilin. This is truly unheard of. I will not marry this fool!"

......

At the same time, in the backyard of the Ye family, a romantic young man was trying to climb over the wall and escape from his yard, regardless of the servants' obstruction.

The boy's name is "Ye Qi", the only son of the Ye family's patriarch, and the "foolish young master who calls a pig a Qilin" as Luo Yanxin called him.

He has been willful since he was young. The head of the Ye family has high hopes for him, but he is obsessed with cultivating immortals and often finds so-called immortals from outside, causing chaos in the Ye family.

"Master! Please don't make things difficult for me. If I let you out, the master will definitely break my legs!"

Seeing the servant yelling nervously, Ye Qi curled his lips slightly, glanced at the servant with an uncertain look, spread his hands and said disdainfully: "What does breaking your leg have to do with me! Tell my father that I'm going to cultivate immortality. I'll honor him after I become a sword immortal!"

"Hmph! By the time you become a sword immortal, I'm afraid I'll be dead!"

"Hey! That old man is not..."

Ye Qi had just said half of his words when he suddenly realized what was happening. He smiled awkwardly and turned his head away stiffly.

Looking at the furious expression and hearing an angry snort, it seems that he is bound to have to eat fried pork with bamboo shoots again.

"You? If you could become an immortal, I'd even chop off your father's head and use it as your chamber pot. You're already grown up, can't you understand a little bit?"

Looking at the brat in front of him who was unrepentant and wanted to run away, Ye Ting was furious.

Instead of inheriting the good family business, he wanted to become an immortal. From ancient times to the present, there have been countless immortal practitioners in the world, but no one has ever been able to achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven.

"No! No! No! I can't afford your chamber pot!"

"You...for the sake of Miss Luo, I won't punish you today, so you won't be embarrassed in front of Miss Luo!"

As soon as Ye Qi heard the three words "Miss Luo", he immediately felt a headache. The two were engaged as soon as they were born because of the long-standing friendship between the two families, but they had never met before.

But I have heard the name of Miss Luo since I was a child. However, compared with cultivating immortals, Miss Luo is too boring.

"You guys decide on the marriage!"

Ye Ting's eyes widened as he looked at his son who had suddenly become sensible and obedient. When did this brat become so obedient?

But before he could come to his senses, his smiling face turned gloomy again, and this time even his fists were shaking.

"I remember that taking a concubine doesn't seem to require any ceremony. You can handle the details as you wish. Taking a concubine can help me cultivate my immortality at the same time. Goodbye, father!"

After saying that, he looked at his stunned father and tiptoed towards the door before he could come to his senses, leaving Ye Ting standing there alone with a changing expression.

Just when Ye Qi was still immersed in the joy of getting rid of his father's obstruction, he suddenly bumped into a strange woman at the corner of the door. Fortunately, the woman's personal maid helped him up and prevented him from falling to the ground.

"Ye Qi! How dare you take me as your concubine? Who do you think you are? As long as I'm willing, suitors can line up from my home to Fengcheng! You, a scoundrel, are trying to cultivate immortality! If you can become an immortal, then God must be blind!"

Ye Qi was completely bewildered by the girl in front of him. Aren’t women in his impression always gentle and soft-spoken?

"you you you…"

Seeing Ye Qi unable to speak as if a stone was stuck in his mouth, the woman glared at him with even greater disappointment and said, "What do you mean by 'you'? You rascal who can't even speak clearly, you want to take me as your concubine?"

Ye Qi spread his hands and said with a look of wanting a beating: "I didn't touch or look at anything, so how can I be called a pervert?"

When Ye Qi heard that he was slandered as a lecher, he immediately became unwilling. He had never been close to women for so many years. Even his father had suspected that there was something wrong with him and specially asked a doctor to treat him. In the end, the doctor was scared away by his ghost-like appearance in the middle of the night.

"you……"

Luo Yanxin's cheeks were swollen with anger. She raised her fist and punched Ye Qi, then turned away angrily, no longer paying any attention to this frivolous playboy.

Looking at Luo Yanxin who left in shame and anger, Ye Qi pretended to be indifferent.

But just as Luo Yanxin passed by her, she suddenly stretched out a toe, which happened to block her step.

"what!"

Luo Yanxin suddenly felt that she was out of control of her body. She was so frightened that she screamed subconsciously. Then she staggered and took several steps forward before she stabilized herself.

Fortunately, the maidservant next to her was quick-witted and supported her young lady at the first moment, which prevented Ye Qi from becoming complacent.

"You little bastard, you always resort to such despicable tactics!"

Ye Qi pretended to be completely clueless about what was happening. Facing Luo Yanxin's furious expression, he didn't even glance at her. He rubbed his chest as if playing deaf and dumb, and said to himself, "The fist isn't big, but it still hurts!"

Ye Ting looked at the two men playing around, and couldn't help but stroke his beard. He laughed meaningfully, patted Ye Qi's shoulder and said, "Hey! My son!"

The kid who she couldn't even control for so many years finally got his comeuppance one day. The daughter-in-law was very satisfied. She hoped that after they got married, this kid would have a hard time.

Ye Qi also had a bewildered look on his face. He looked at his father's departing figure in the distance, chuckled softly, and muttered to himself, "What's going on today? Everyone is so weird. It seems like it's not a good time to go out today!"

After standing there for two seconds, Ye Qi followed behind. This girl from the Luo family was indeed different from the ordinary girls. Her temper was quite interesting.

But as soon as she reached the door, she heard Luo Yanxin's voice, mixed with tears, saying, "Grandpa! I don't want to marry that little bastard!"

Ye Qi, who was outside the door, heard the girl from the Luo family saying bad things about him again. He forgot he was eavesdropping and stood up and asked angrily, "Who are you calling a little bastard?"

"Wow! The eldest young master of the Ye family actually has a hobby of eavesdropping!"

Luo Yanxin stood in front of Ye Qi with her head held high and her chest puffed out, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she looked very proud and indifferent.

"you……"

He was so angry at Luo Yanxin's attitude that he pointed his finger at her, but when he opened his mouth he didn't know how to refute.

Fortunately, the old man of the Luo family saw the two of them and quickly interrupted, "Ye Ting! Look how well-matched they are. I remember when your father asked you to marry Yan'er, you refused to do so. You ran to my house and stayed there for half a month, saying you didn't want to marry Yan'er no matter what. In the end, you two started fighting and quarreling until she didn't want to marry you anymore, but you shamelessly stuck to her! Hahahaha..."

"Uncle Luo! The children are still here, please give me, your nephew, some face!"

Hearing Mr. Luo's teasing, Ye Ting broke out in a sweat and was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

However, Luo Yanxin understood what her grandfather meant. She immediately looked at him, stomped her feet shyly, pointed at Ye Qi and said, "Even if I die, I would rather die than marry this little bastard!"

"Die? Eh! How does Miss Luo want to die? With a knife? No, no, Miss Luo's palms, which are not even as big as the knife, might not be strong enough and the knife might get stuck in the bone. We would have to pull it out and cut it a second time, and there would be a river of blood. Besides, we definitely can't watch Miss Luo die by then. We dare not ignore her. But what if she is rescued... Ugh! It hurts just thinking about it! It's better to use poison, it will work faster!"

As he said this, he called on the servant beside him to bring a small jade bottle, which he didn't know whether it really contained poison or not. Luo Yanxin was so scared that she staggered and almost fell.

Then, with tears in her eyes, she hugged Old Man Luo and shook his arms, saying, "Grandpa! Your granddaughter has been bullied like this by that little bastard, and you still don't say a word for your granddaughter!"

Seeing the young lady from the Luo family tear up at the amusement of her own son, Ye Ting secretly gave her a thumbs up and said proudly in his heart, "You are worthy of being my son, Ye Ting. You have the demeanor of your father back then!"

However, although he was happy in his heart, he still had to vent his anger on the girl from the Luo family for the sake of face.

He immediately feigned anger, pointed at his "excellent" son, and angrily scolded him, "Qi'er! Today I'm punishing you to go to the study and copy the 'Qingxin Sutra'. Copy... copy until Miss Luo feels relieved, then you can come out!"

"whispering sound!"

Looking at Luo Yanxin, who was acting arrogantly and bullying others, Ye Qi turned around and walked towards the study.

"Niece Luo, are you satisfied with this punishment?"

Looking at Ye Ting's kind face, Luo Yanxin nodded vigorously like a chick pecking at rice.

But in comparison, Ye Qi was not so happy. He went into the study alone out of boredom and did not follow his father's arrangement to copy books.

I had originally planned to go out into the world today, but something unexpected happened. I had no chance of escaping in broad daylight, so I had no choice but to lie down among the books and recuperate, and make my plans when it was late at night.

As he was thinking, Ye fell asleep and slept soundly without knowing when. He was suddenly awakened by hearing Luo Yanxin's panicked screams for help late at night!

"Little bastard, help!"

Ye Qi, who had just opened his sleepy eyes, saw Luo Yanxin running towards the study, looking back every few steps. His face looked hurried, and he even tripped over the threshold in panic.

Before Luo Yanxin could get up, a man with strange and stiff movements pounced on Luo Yanxin and opened his bloody mouth to bite her fair and tender neck.

Just when Luo Yanxin thought she was about to die, she saw Ye Qi grab the man and kick him out of the door.

"Thank you... thank you..."

"Don't thank me yet, come and help!"

After Luo Yanxin reacted, she discovered that Ye Qi's body was against the door of the study, and there were several figures outside banging on the wooden door of the study, accompanied by bursts of beast-like roars!

"Oh...oh oh..."

"Go push the bookcase over here!"

Soon after he finished speaking, Ye Qi saw a towering bookshelf falling towards him at an angle.

Fortunately, they reacted quickly and dodged it, and the bookshelf successfully held the wooden door tightly. After checking the window, the two of them sat down together.

After a moment, Luo Yanxin spoke first: "Aren't you... a cultivator? Why are you still afraid of them?"

Hearing Luo Yanxin's questioning voice, Ye Qi scratched his head awkwardly and said, "I've tried seven or eight scammers before, but none of them could teach me how to cultivate immortality. Today, I plan to go to the Qiongyang Sect, where my master once lived, to learn from him. You all know what happened next..."

"You can't blame me, you were the first one..."

"Forget it, forget it. Let's find a way out first. I wonder what's going on with my father and your grandfather! The guy outside just now didn't seem to feel any pain after being hit by my sword. I'm afraid he'll be a bit difficult to deal with!"

As he spoke, Ye Qi stood up and tiptoed to the window, then gently opened a crack to observe the situation outside. The people in the courtyard were wandering around like zombies!

"I've heard from my master before that there's an extremely powerful monster in this world called the Nightmare Monster. It feeds on dreams. Those who lose their dream consciousness become the walking corpse. These people are called 'Nightmare Seeds'!"

Luo Yanxin was stunned with surprise. It was the first time she heard of such a powerful monster.

Just these "nightmare seeds" that have been sucked into dreams are so difficult to deal with, not to mention the nightmare demon behind them!

"If it's really the nightmare demon you mentioned, then... Grandpa..."
