Cultivation of immortality begins with an eighty-year-old eunuch.

Chapter 447 Young Master Wang! Night Stroll!

Chen Fan concealed his aura and slowly walked towards the Beast Taming Garden.

Before we even got close, we heard a series of cursing and swearing.

"Hurry up! What are you dawdling for! This pile of shit has to be cleaned up today! Otherwise, tomorrow those armored rhinos will have pooped all over the garden, and I'll have to clean it up again!"

It was Lao Huang's voice, rough and impatient.

Then came Young Master Wang's tearful reply: "Old Huang, this is the third time... I really can't shovel anymore..."

"Can't shovel it? If you can't shovel it, then use your hands! Let me tell you, in this Beast Taming Garden, if you're a dragon, you have to coil up; if you're a tiger, you have to lie down! No matter what kind of young master you are, once you come here, you're destined to shovel poop!"

Chen Fan walked to the outside of the Beast Taming Garden and looked inside through the fence.

The garden was brightly lit, and several moonstones were embedded in the wooden stakes, emitting a soft white light.

The garden was very large, divided into dozens of areas, each housing different kinds of demonic beasts. There were armored rhinoceroses, wind wolves, fire foxes, thunder eagles, and so on. Most of them were low-level demonic beasts, but there were quite a few of them. At this moment, some were lying down, some were pacing, and some were fast asleep.

In the center of the garden, Young Master Wang, with his sleeves rolled up, was digging vigorously at a pile of monster dung with an extra-large iron shovel in his hand.

He was dressed in coarse cloth clothes, which were covered in dirt. His hair was messy and there were several black marks on his face. He looked nothing like a young master from a noble family.

Old Huang squatted on a stone stool to the side, holding a pipe in his hand, puffing away, and squinting as he supervised.

"There's another one on the left! Can't you see it? Are your eyes on your butt?"

With a mournful face, Young Master Wang turned to his left and, sure enough, saw another pile of fresh rhinoceros dung. He gritted his teeth, shoveled it down, but used too much force, and the dung splattered up, almost covering his face.

"Ugh!" He gagged, tears welling up in his eyes.

Old Huang scoffed, "Is that all you've got? A direct descendant of the Wang family, my foot! Let me tell you, back in my day on the battlefield, I'd dig up mountains of human blood and flesh, let alone monster dung!"

Young Master Wang dared not argue and could only endure the nausea and continue shoveling.

Chen Fan found it interesting, but instead of showing himself, he quietly entered the garden and observed from the shadows.

After clearing out the Rhino Zone, Young Master Wang was driven to the Wind Wolf Zone by Old Huang.

The wind wolf droppings were less numerous, but the smell was far stronger. As soon as Young Master Wang approached, he was so overwhelmed by the stench that he took three steps back and almost vomited.

"What are you dawdling for! Hurry up!" Old Huang hit him on the back of the head with his pipe.

Young Master Wang covered his head, on the verge of tears, and could only pinch his nose and step forward.

As he shoveled, he muttered under his breath, "When I get out... when I get out I'll make sure the family wipes you all out... damn eunuchs... damn old men..."

Old Huang, with his sharp ears, sneered after hearing this: "Destroy us? You'd better think about how you're going to get out of here alive! Let me tell you, since the old eunuch dumped you here, he has no intention of letting you go easily! You'd better just obediently shovel manure, and maybe one day the old eunuch will be in a good mood and spare your dog's life!"

Young Master Wang trembled and dared not speak again, only lowering his head to shovel furiously.

Chen Fan watched for a while, then suddenly spoke up: "Old Huang."

Old Huang was startled, nearly dropping his pipe. He whirled around and saw the old eunuch. He quickly jumped down from the stone stool, bowed deeply, and said, "Master! What brings you here?"

Young Master Wang also heard the sound, looked up and saw the old eunuch. His face turned pale, and the iron shovel in his hand fell to the ground with a "clatter".

"Eunuch Chen..."

Chen Fan walked closer, glanced at the filthy Young Master Wang, and then looked at Old Huang: "How has he been these past few days?"

Old Huang chuckled: "Reporting to Master, this kid was putting on airs at first and refused to work. I starved him for two days and made the armored rhinoceros poop a few times where he was sleeping, and then he behaved himself. Now he works quite hard, but he's a bit delicate and vomits all the time."

Young Master Wang lowered his head, trembling all over, whether from fear or anger, it was hard to tell.

Chen Fan smiled, narrowing his eyes, "The Wang family patriarch will come to redeem him in three days. During these three days, you should teach him well and let him know that living in this world is not just about family background."

Old Huang's eyes lit up: "Understood! Don't worry, Master, I will definitely teach him well!"

Young Master Wang suddenly looked up, a glimmer of hope in his eyes: "Three...three days later? My family will come to ransom me?"

Chen Fan glanced at him: "Not bad. But the ransom is quite high. If your family can't afford it, you'll have to continue shoveling shit here."

Young Master Wang quickly replied, "Of course! Absolutely! Whatever Eunuch Chen wants, my family will provide it!"

"That's good." Chen Fan said calmly, "These three days, you'd better work hard. If you slack off..."

Before he could finish speaking, Young Master Wang understood and quickly picked up the shovel: "I'll do it! I'll definitely do it well!"

Chen Fan said no more and turned to leave.

With nothing to do, he decided to go outside and take a look!

Under the moonlight, Chen Fan strolled towards the training ground.

They hadn't gone far when they heard a clear, ringing sound of a sword. Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw Qingxiazi practicing her swordsmanship in an open space.

She moved with agility, wielding her longsword with fluid grace, her sword aura sharp and incongruous with the tranquil night around her.

Qingxiazi was focused, with beads of sweat on her forehead, clearly having practiced for a long time. Sensing someone approaching, she withdrew her sword, glanced at the old eunuch, her expression remained unchanged, she merely nodded slightly, and then continued to concentrate on her swordplay.

Chen Fan paused and watched for a while, nodding to himself. This woman was indeed resilient; she had not slacked off in her cultivation since arriving in this place!

After bypassing the training ground, Chen Fan arrived near the Enlightenment Stele.

From afar, one could hear a dog barking mixed with indistinct human voices.

As they approached, they saw the big black dog lying proudly on a large rock, while Qingyunzi knelt beside it blankly, holding a handful of wild fruits he had picked from somewhere, feeding them one by one to the black dog.

Black King would occasionally reach out a paw and pat Qingyunzi's head, muttering, "Hurry up, haven't you eaten enough? I'm in a good mood tonight, so serve me well, or you'll get bitten less tomorrow!"

Qingyunzi was dressed in rags, with disheveled hair and empty eyes. He mechanically repeated the feeding motions, seemingly oblivious to Heihuang's shouts.

Chen Fan shook his head at the sight. This former prodigy of the Qingyun Sect had fallen to such a state; it was karmic retribution. He didn't disturb the "master and servant" pair and quietly walked past them.

Further ahead, there is a relatively open flat area.

This place has been temporarily designated as a training ground for sword formations.

There, Qingyizi, Qingfengzi, and Tianyu Daoren were gathered around a huge animal hide spread out on the ground. The hide was covered with intricate array patterns and sword paths.

Qingfengzi pointed to a key point in the formation and was speaking passionately, his face flushed with excitement!

Daoist Tianyu frowned, gesturing with his fingers in the air as if calculating the flow of spiritual energy!

The one in green was the most composed. He sat cross-legged to the side, holding a jade slip in his hand, sometimes comparing it to the animal skin, sometimes closing his eyes in deep thought.

The three had clearly been studying it for a long time, and several spirit stones used for deduction were scattered on the ground.
