Chapter 1 Proposal (Part 2)
After his idea was settled, Zhuang Yi's mind calmed down. He ate and practiced as usual. Facing Yue Niang and her daughter, he did not reveal his concerns.
A day passed by in a hurry. The next morning, Zhuang Yi had just pushed the door out and saw a drizzle falling from the sky.
The drizzle was as fine as powder, which seemed to be covered with a layer of floating veil. The scenery in the distance was hazy and unreal.
In a vaguely, Zhuang Yi, with sharp eyes, seemed to see a shadow standing under a short tree dozens of meters away from the door, waving to him.
Zhuang Yi walked over in the rain. Sure enough, it was Zhuang Xiaoyue who stood tall under the tree. Seeing him appear, a hint of joy appeared on his pretty face.
"Have you been waiting here for a long time?" Seeing her face a little haggard, she knew that she must have been sleeping for another night last night, and she couldn't help but feel pity.
Zhuang Xiaoyue shook her head, and a sweet smile appeared on her face, "I just arrived too."
Zhuang Yi looked at the corner of her skirt, which was completely wet, and knew that she had been standing here for a while. Seeing her say this, she didn't expose it. She took her hand and said, "Let's go to Xiaogu and say." After that, she pulled her out.
The two of them trotted and ran to the valley. There was a corner inside the valley, with a large protruding rock above it, just in time to shelter from the rain.
Under the rock, Zhuang Yi found a dry place to sit down and said, "I have thought of a way. As long as you do what I said, your uncle will definitely not agree to the Gu family's proposal."
"Really? What's the solution?" Hearing Zhuang Yi's words, two blushings rose on Zhuang Xiaoyue's slightly pale face. With excitement, he took it for a moment and grabbed Zhuang Yi's arm with all his strength.
After a while, she suddenly woke up and quickly withdrew her hand. The blush on her face seemed to expand. At this time, she was no longer the cold and arrogant girl from heaven, but a gentle and friendly little cousin.
A smile appeared on the corner of Zhuang Yi's mouth and continued, "Do you know that the family had come out in full bloom more than ten days ago?"
When he heard his serious business, Zhuang Xiaoyue slid her long hair on her temples, thought for a while, and said, "A few days ago, there were indeed a few days when an elder could not see him. Even the elders of the Wu Pavilion had not appeared for several days. Could it be that they were not in the family?"
Zhuang Yi said, "Of course they are not in the family, but go into the mountains to hunt monsters."
Her slender eyebrows, like willow leaves, frowned slightly. Zhuang Xiaoyue said in surprise, "Monster Beast?" But she didn't know what this matter had to do with her marriage.
Zhuang Yi's voice subconsciously lightened, "Do you know, what kind of monster are they going to hunt?"
Zhuang Xiaoyue was curious and asked nervously, "What is it?"
"Blood Jade Fox." Zhuang Yi expressed the answer.
"Blood Jade Fox?" Zhuang Xiaoyue said in a lost voice, and her little face was full of horror. The Blood Jade Fox is famous for being a man of evil, and everyone in Tangjun knows it, "What's the result?"
"That was just a minor blood jade fox. The family came out of the crowd, so it was naturally easy to capture." Zhuang Yi smiled.
In fact, he was not sure whether the Blood Jade Fox was dead or alive now. However, at least when he killed Zhuang Fan and escaped from the scene, it was still alive. Because when he finally threw out the Blood Jade Grass, the Blood Jade Grass had not yet withered.
Zhuang Xiaoyue's tense body was loose. The blood jade fox was too famous, so she couldn't be nervous. Then, a trace of sudden enlightenment appeared on her face and said, "No wonder. No wonder several elders died at the same time a few days ago. It turned out that they were hunting the blood jade fox..."
After saying that, she looked at Zhuang Yi, but she still didn't understand what this matter had to do with her marriage.
Zhuang Yi stretched out his index finger, rubbed his eyebrows, and said, "Have you ever mentioned to you that there is a secret method for the family inheritance?"
Zhuang Xiaoyue turned her head and thought for a moment, shook her head, "No."
Zhuang Yi's face showed a look of memories, "When my grandfather was still there, I mentioned it to me. The family has a secret method that has been passed down from the first generation of ancestors to this day."
After hearing him reveal the secrets of the family, Zhuang Xiaoyue listened intently. When she heard this, she couldn't help but ask, "What is the secret method?"
"The Art of Beast Control." Zhuang Yi said authentically.
"Beast Control Art?" Zhuang Xiaoyue repeated it, and her face gradually changed.
"That's right." Zhuang Yi nodded solemnly, "This is an extremely magical method that can control powerful monsters and be used by me."
Zhuang Xiaoyue covered her mouth with her hands, as if she was afraid that she would shout.
Controlling monsters? How horrible it is.
Monsters have always been famous for their cruelty and power. The appearance of middle and high-grade monsters often means bloody storms. Humans and monsters have always been incompatible with water and fire.
I have never heard of anyone who can control monsters.
"Why have I never heard of the family that there are monsters that can control me?" After being shocked, Zhuang Xiaoyue raised such a question again. It's not that she doesn't believe in Zhuang Yi, but this news is really incredible.
"If it is easy to tame a monster, how could the family just stay in this remote place? It has long been famous in the five major states." Zhuang Yi said with a wry smile.
"There are several conditions for taming monsters. First, they must be underage monsters. Second, the grade must be below the fourth grade. Finally, and most importantly, they must have the heart to control beasts."
The first two are easy to understand, but, "What is the heart of controlling beasts?" Zhuang Xiaoyue said strangely.
"The Heart of Beast Control is an item, an indispensable item for Beast Control Monsters. Only by owning it can one establish a special relationship with the monsters and thus control the monsters."
Zhuang Yi continued, "Refining a mind of controlling beasts requires several extremely rare materials. The family has accumulated over hundreds of years to barely get enough materials to refine three. In the end, only two of them were successfully refined."
At this time, Zhuang Xiaoyue didn't understand his plan. Her little face turned a little white in an instant, "What do you mean is to let me... steal the heart of controlling beasts, and then... tame the blood jade fox?"
"No, if my uncle knew about it, he... wouldn't let us go." Zhuang Xiaoyue shook her head vigorously, because she was afraid, and her voice was a little trembling.
Zhuang Yi's face suddenly became cold and he sneered, "Then, you are going to marry into the Gu family and be your Gu family's young grandmother."
Zhuang Xiaoyue's body trembled slightly, and even her lips lost their blood. She looked at Zhuang Yi, with fear and begging in her eyes.
Zhuang Yi hardened his heart and his face became even colder, "If you want to control your own destiny, this is your only chance."
His words were like a heavy hammer, hitting the most vulnerable part of her heart. In her eyes, a sense of despair first appeared, and then a resolute look appeared on her face.
Finally, a faint voice spit out in her bloodless lips, "I'll do it."
A satisfied smile rose on Zhuang Yi's face.
