Chapter 179: Human Pet

Chapter 179: Human Pet

Wu Dayong arranged Wang Hong in a secluded courtyard behind Qingxu Tower. The place was adorned with various furnishings, and the craftsmanship of the furniture was exquisite.

For the next few years, Wang Hong would spend his time here.

His responsibility was to take on Alchemy commissions from customers and collect rewards. Additionally, he could assist in refining Pills for Qingxu Tower, which could be sold, but most of the Pills sold here were supplied internally by the sect, so it was entirely voluntary.

During his free time, Wang Hong could move around as he pleased, as long as it wasn't too far, and he could be contacted if needed.

As a second-tier Alchemist, this kind of experience was quite enriching.

After settling Wang Hong, he went to find Zhang Chunfeng and Elder Brother, who had come here before. Yesterday, he had inquired about their addresses from Senior Brother Shen Jian.

In the South City District, behind South City Street, there was an alley with neatly arranged houses of consistent architectural style.

This area was where Qingxu Sect arranged the residences for Foundation Building disciples.

Wang Hong found one of the houses, sent a Transmission Talisman inside these houses were protected by formations, and knocking on the door wouldn't work.

After a moment, the door opened, and Zhang Chunfeng walked out.

"Senior Brother! You're here too?"

Zhang Chunfeng was somewhat surprised to see Wang Hong.

"I was assigned to this place shortly after reaching Foundation Building. Let's talk inside," Wang Hong said, taking the initiative.

"Yes, yes, Senior Brother, please come in!"

She and a group of children were then herded together and literally raised, locked inside another mountain cave. Food was thrown in casually every day, causing chaotic scrambles among the children.

The food varied from nearly spoiled wild fruits to leaves of wild vegetables, occasionally including some unidentified meat. Once, Yun Qingya found a human finger in a pile of minced meat, reminding her of her consumed parents. From then on, she chose to go hungry rather than compete for meat.

Some among them tried to escape, but they were quickly caught. Three children were tied to a bonfire, roasted alive in front of everyone. The smell of cooking flesh wafted in the air, and the screams lingered, ensuring no one dared to escape again.

After being raised for two years, Yun Qingya was sold to a Demon Clan member covered in black scales, with a humanoid appearance. She became this Demon Clan's human pet after being acknowledged.

Later, another human pet, seemingly aged fifty or sixty, was assigned to educate her. Every day, she learned the language, writing, and various customs of the human race. The teachings covered even the minutest details, such as walking posture and tone of speech. Failure to meet the requirements resulted in punishment.

At the age of eighteen, she was brought to Azure Void City. After spending some time there, she successfully joined Qingxu Sect.

In Qingxu Sect, she experienced care from elders and admiration from fellow disciples, momentarily forgetting she was just a human pet.

However, this happiness was short-lived. She received orders to cooperate with another human pet, subduing some Qingxu Sect disciples to become undercover agents for the Demon Clan.

Now, she moved cautiously, despite being someone's possession. If she were casually killed by passing Demon Clan members for dinner, her owner wouldn't seek revengeperhaps just compensating with a few Spirit Herbs.

Since the Demon Clan lagged in Pill Recipe refinement, their transactions seldom involved Pills, mostly consisting of raw Spirit Herbs.

After two days of stealth, she finally returned to her owner's cave mansiona not too large stone palace entirely constructed from blue stones.

At the upper part of the main hall, a Demon Clan member with tusks, covered in black scales with a thick tail, sat high. Two robust humans, apparently females, served this Demon Clan member attentively.

The two women were tall and muscular, with bulging muscles, facial hair, and a layer of fine beard on their mouths.
