Becoming a succubus tentacle monster in the world of cultivation

The masked man's attack came to an end.

The caravan's guards also suffered few casualties because Geng Xing had first dealt with the masked man at the sixth level of Qi Refining.

Geng Xing felt that the caravan must be escorting something extremely precious, otherwise they would not have attracted the combat power of the middle stage of foundation building. Ye Chen also said at the beginning that someone asked him to protect the caravan.

But Geng Xing couldn't understand one thing. Ye Chen was really injured. Who could have hurt Ye Chen?

Geng Xing called over the caravan leader and, without lowering his voice, asked in a voice that most of the caravan could hear: "Brother, how could you, a caravan escorted by a person at the fourth level of Qi Refining, attract the robbery of the Four Xuanming Elders? Do you have any clues?"

Geng Xing didn't think the big man knew anything. When only one of the Four Xuanming Elders showed up, the big man had already planned to give up the goods.

"Senior, I'm also confused. This time we only sent a batch of ordinary medicinal herbs. Although they are somewhat spiritual, they are not of much use to a cultivator like me who is at the fourth level of Qi Refining or above, unless..."

The big man obviously thought of something. At this time, a middle-aged man walked out of the crowd and bowed to Geng Xing, "Sir, may I have a word with you?"

"can."

Geng Xing and the middle-aged man walked a little further away. Geng Xing only had one leg left, so it was not nice for him to jump around, so he could only fly with his sword.

"My name is Xu Kun, and I am the steward of the Chen Mansion. This batch of medicinal herbs was also sent to the Chen Mansion. Senior, you are right. There are indeed some precious items hidden in the caravan."

Geng Xing thought to himself, "Sure enough."

Xu Kun continued, "The Four Xuanming Elders are notorious for their evil deeds, yet only a very few know that they are merely servants of one man. This man is our Chen family's enemy, the Young Master of the Lion King Sect."

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Geng Xing interrupted, "Don't tell me so much. I'm just a little Karami at the Qi Refining stage, and I don't want to get involved in the fight between your two factions. But I'm a little curious about how you, a Qi Refining third level person, became the Chen family's steward."

Geng Xing knew that the Chen family had a Nascent Soul master.

Xu Kun replied, "I've had a close relationship with the current Patriarch since childhood. I once had the good fortune to save his life. The Patriarch always repays favors, so since he became Patriarch, he hasn't looked down on me for my poor talent or low realm. Instead, he's made me the housekeeper."

Geng Xing nodded, but he didn't completely believe it.

Xu Kun continued, "Don't look at me like this, sir. I'm actually over 170 years old. It's all thanks to the patriarch who never skimped on the medicinal herbs that would prolong my life."

Geng Xing grabbed Xu Kun's hand and felt it, confirming that he had no hidden realm and that his bone age was indeed over a hundred years old, so he felt relieved.

"It seems that what you said is true. What about Ye Chen?"

"Ye Chen is the helper that the Patriarch has found. This time, Ye Chen has done our Chen Mansion a great favor. It is not an exaggeration to say that he has saved our Chen Mansion from danger. When we return to the Chen Mansion, the Patriarch will definitely give Ye Chen a generous gift to thank you for your kindness."

Xu Kun is also an old fox. His previous words seemed to be an answer to Geng Xing's question, but his words actually emphasized that the head of the family was grateful and had excellent character, which made Geng Xing have a good impression of the head of the Chen family. He then suggested that there would be generous gifts when he arrived at the Chen Mansion, so that Geng Xing could continue to travel with the caravan and continue to protect the caravan.

After all, Ye Chen is now in a coma and it is unknown when he will wake up.

In fact, there was no need for Brother Kun to say much. Geng Xing had already planned to go to Chen Mansion. Geng Xing had not yet received the reward promised by Ye Chen, so of course he could not leave now.

Geng Xing asked again, "Brother Kun, do you know what happened to Brother Ye's injury?"

"I dare not, I dare not!" Although Xu Kun didn't know that Geng Xing's "Brother Kun" contained a teasing tone, he really didn't dare to be called "brother". If he were in Tianyang City, with his identity as the steward of the Chen family, all the foundation-building cultivators would be respectful to him.

But now they are still far away from Tianyang City, and they still have to rely on Geng Xing to protect the caravan, so they naturally have to lower their posture.

"I don't know the extent of Lord Ye's injuries. He wasn't injured when the master asked him to protect the caravan. You should wait until Lord Ye wakes up and ask him in person."

"That's fine."

"By the way, sir, if the master knew you lost a leg protecting the caravan, he would definitely find you a precious medicine that could regenerate the limb, so please don't worry about it."

Geng Xing didn't expect there would be an unexpected surprise. He didn't care about his broken leg. He hadn't used the tentacles to regenerate until now just because he didn't want to attract attention.

However, if there is a precious medicine that can regenerate severed limbs, it will be of great help to Bai Lingling's body.

At that time, Tentacles and Bai Lingling can act separately, so that if they really encounter a situation where they are sure to die, they will have a backup plan.

Geng Xing excitedly shook Xu Kun's hand: "Is it true, godfather?"

The word "godfather" frightened Xu Kun.

"I dare not, I dare not. If I really want to talk about adoptive father, then you are my adoptive father. The grace of saving my life is like giving me a new life. I dare not mess up the kindness!"

Geng Xing put his arm around Xu Kun's shoulders and said, "Don't worry about these details. The affairs of the Chen Mansion are my business. Don't worry, even if it costs me my life, I will escort the caravan safely to Tianyang City!"

Xu Kun showed his delight:

"In that case, I would like to thank you for your generous help. Don't worry, the reward will not disappoint you."

Before Geng Xing could continue to flatter him, he heard the caravan leader shout, "Brother Ye is awake!"

Geng Xing and Xu Kun hurried to Ye Chen's carriage, and Geng Ling spoke first: "Brother Ye! You're finally awake!"

"How long have I been unconscious?" Ye Chen supported his head and slowly sat up.

"About four hours. Look, it's getting dark."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen looked out the window and continued, "I'm afraid I won't be able to fight for a few hours. During this time, you must protect the goods and me as well. I will heal my wounds as soon as possible."

Geng Xing knew it was over when he heard it. There was a high probability that someone would come to attack the caravan in the next few hours.

But Geng Xing also knew this was an opportunity to improve his favorability, so he immediately said, "Brother Ye, don't worry! As long as I'm alive, I won't let them get close to you!"

Ye Chen was deeply moved when he heard this: "Fellow Daoist Geng, I thank you again. But if your life is really in danger, please don't worry about me anymore!"

"Don't worry, Brother Ye, I will definitely put my own safety first." Geng Xing's eyes were firm, but he said in his heart: Nonsense, I definitely can't fight you to the death.

Ye Chen looked at Geng Xing's determined eyes and knew that Geng Xing would probably fight to the death to protect him. He looked at Geng Xing's missing right leg again, hesitated for a moment, but still took out a set of armor that could cover his entire body from the storage bag.

"Fellow Daoist Geng, this is a magical weapon I accidentally acquired. Unfortunately, I'm seriously injured and can't activate it, so I'll lend it to you temporarily. After you put it on, use your spiritual power to activate it and it can temporarily serve as your limbs. At your level, attacks below the foundation building stage won't be able to hurt you at all. It can also enhance your combat power in all aspects. Please prioritize your own safety!"

Holy crap, that’s awesome.

Seeing Ye Chen take out such an awesome magic weapon so easily, I thought that Ye Chen could fight against the peak of Foundation Establishment at his peak, which was already an overestimation of him. Now it seems that he may not be able to fight against the Golden Core.

Geng Xing was indignant. Damn, the protagonist was really unreasonable.

"Brother Ye, just focus on healing! I will definitely live up to your trust."

"Ok!"

Ye Chen was very moved as he watched Geng Xing get out of the carriage.
