After being demoted, my 300,000-strong army trampled the imperial city!

Upon hearing Chen Futu inquire about his identity, the mysterious man hesitated for a moment. The power of rules on his body gradually dissipated, revealing a face that was neither male nor female. His appearance was delicate yet very beautiful, and his skin was as smooth as a peeled egg.

Chen Futu stared at him intently for a long time, and looking at his flat chest, he couldn't tell whether he was male or female.

"You can call me Chixiao."

The mysterious man turned his face away, seemingly uncomfortable being stared at.

Chen Futu shrugged and didn't ask any more questions.

Afterwards, Wang Qianshan said hello and followed Zhou Baihe and his group, while Chen Futu was warmly taken back to the Lin family by Lin Ying. Hua Yun also followed, but her gaze remained fixed on Chi Xiao.

Chi Xiao noticed Hua Yun's probing gaze and said coldly, "Elder Hua, am I handsome?"

Hua Yun said with slight respect, "I'm just curious, which quasi-emperor are you, that I've never seen you before?"

"There are quite a few Quasi-Emperors in this world. Although your Celestial Clan is extraordinary, it is impossible for you to have seen all of them."

After saying that, Chi Xiao asked Lin Ying to prepare a room for him to rest.

Lin Ying naturally dared not neglect her duties and personally arranged a fine room for him. Afterwards, she returned to Chen Futu's side, clutching her bulging chest with a look of lingering fear, "Young Master Qin, this is the first time I've been so close to a quasi-Emperor level expert. It was really terrifying."

Her face was flushed when she spoke; it wasn't fear, but clearly excitement.

"Miss, the master is still outside and hasn't left." The butler suddenly reported, and Lin Ying's pretty face turned cold. "Get him out of here. He's no longer a member of the Lin family. I am the head of the family now."

"Here."

The steward dared not delay and went straight out to chase the people away.

"Young Master Qin, please treat my brother."

Lin Ying finally remembered her unlucky brother; otherwise, Chen Futu would have reminded her.

Back in the room, Chen Futu carefully examined the dying Lin Bei and said to Lin Ying, "He was corrupted by the chaotic energy of the earth's veins. He had mistakenly entered the earth's veins."

Upon hearing this, Lin Ying and Hua Yun both exclaimed in surprise.

Everyone was searching for the earth's veins, but Lin Bei unexpectedly stumbled upon one.

"Young Master Qin, is there any hope for him?"

"This kind of erosion is similar to what the White Night Clan suffered. I can try it with my blood; perhaps it can suppress it."

As Chen Futu spoke, he released a drop of Dragon Emperor's blood, which entered Lin Bei's brow.

The Dragon Emperor's Blood is a divine bloodline, possessing the power to resist all poisons and eliminate calamities. It was the Dragon Emperor's Blood that saved the Bai Ye Clan last time. Lin Bei's condition is much better than that of the Bai Ye Clan. After all, the Bai Ye Clan's condition stems from the punishment of the earth's veins, accompanied by the curse of their bloodline generation after generation. Lin Bei's negative condition is incomparable to theirs.

As expected, as the Dragon Emperor's blood spread, the invisible deathly gray aura on Lin Bei's body gradually faded away, and Lin Bei's sickly face gradually regained some vitality. He only needed to rest for a few days to recover.

"Thank you, Young Master Qin."

Lin Ying was overjoyed, and Hua Yun was also quite interested.

Lin Bei has been to the ley lines; if he remembers, he might be able to find it.

Afterwards, Chen Futu stayed temporarily at the Lin family's residence. Lin Ying sent someone to the Feixia Mountains to deliver a message to Ling Xue, explaining the three-year agreement and urging her to improve her cultivation as much as possible.

In addition, Chen Futu also entrusted Lin Ying to help choose a suitable place to establish a sect, planning to establish the Sun Moon Divine Sect after Dongfang Bubai arrived.

Several days passed in the blink of an eye. During these days, Lin Bei's condition gradually improved, and he finally regained consciousness. However, he remained tight-lipped about everything related to the earth veins, as if it were a taboo topic. Whenever Lin Ying asked, he would shake his head vehemently and refuse to answer.

"It seems that my brother has encountered a great horror, which is why he is unwilling to recall it."

Lin Ying was disappointed. She had originally planned to cooperate with Chen Futu and take a trip to the ley lines.

Chi Xiao warned, "The earth veins are dangerous. Even a quasi-emperor could perish there. Moreover, they contain all sorts of ominous signs. If you don't want to die, I advise you to give up the idea of ​​entering the earth veins. Although there are great opportunities in such places, you also need to be alive to bring them out."

"Thank you for your guidance, senior. I understand now."

Although Lin Ying said that, Chen Futu could tell that she still had her own thoughts. A woman with such strong opinions like her wouldn't turn back until she suffered a loss.

That night, Chen Futu entered Lin Bei's room alone. Upon hearing the footsteps, Lin Bei immediately shrank under the covers, trembling, and mumbled incoherent sobs, "No, don't come any closer!"

He suffered a mental breakdown, and even after regaining consciousness, he was unable to communicate normally.

Chen Futu casually asked a few questions, and Lin Bei answered the same thing as Lin Ying: whenever the topic of earth veins came up, Lin Bei would shut up and refuse to say anything more.

"Pity."

Chen Futu sighed inwardly. Fortunately, the Lin family had gained something from this trip. They acquired the Sun Moon Sect's territory and also reached a cooperation agreement with Lin Ying on the new Creation Pill. She would be in charge of the auction and sales and would not take a penny, which could be considered as a way of repaying the Lin family for resolving their crisis.

Just as Chen Futu was about to leave the room, Lin Bei suddenly poked his head out from under the covers and said mysteriously, "He will come looking for you..."

Chen Futu was startled and turned around to look. He saw Lin Bei huddled in the corner with a strange smile on his face. Outside the window, a strong wind was blowing in the dark night, making the trees sway and bend.

Chen Futu frowned and asked, "What do you mean? And who is this 'him' you're talking about?"

"He knows you. He will come for you and drag you into the abyss, so that you will never escape!"

Lin Bei seemed to be possessed, his mouth stretched almost to his ears, his expression extremely ferocious and sinister.

Chen Futu inexplicably got goosebumps all over his body.

If I'm not mistaken, the "he" Lin Bei mentioned is the one who controlled the earth vein curse of the Baiye clan's ancestor. Before leaving the ancestor's body, that thing said it would meet again. At the time, I thought it was just a casual threat, but I didn't expect it to actually come looking for me.

"The earth's veins are etched with everything. Everything that happens in the world will be recorded. He remembers you. He will find you and drag you into the abyss, drag you into the abyss!" Lin Bei roared, his eyes turning emerald green.

Chen Futu coldly replied, "Is that so? If you want to come find me, then come. Why would I be afraid of you?"

"The remnants of the White Night shall be condemned to eternal damnation. You have defied the will of Heaven, and your end will not be good."

"Hehe, I'll wait for him."

After Chen Futu finished speaking, he turned and left. As he left the room, a strange, deathly gray light flickered in Lin Bei's eyes. "Hehehe, Chen Futu, I won't let you get away with this..."

As soon as Chen Futu returned to his room, Chi Xiao appeared in a flash. He looked him up and down and said strangely, "You have a very strong smell of decay on you."

"Really?" Chen Futu subconsciously sniffed his arm. "No."

"Your cultivation is too weak to sense that this aura is decaying and dilapidated, and is filled with indescribable fluctuations of laws. It seems that you are being targeted by something."
