The Two Were Imprisoned
Despicable. Destroy all that they couldn’t have!
Cheng Xiao Xiao looked at them coldly as they approach the chicken coops with lightning speed. You could tell their intention was to cull them all.
Murderous looked beamed from their eyes. They both reach out their palms. Their intentions were clear.
One second later, a green glow flickered through the air and the two body was froze in mid-air. They couldn’t tell what had wrapped around their bodies. Before they could react, they were thrown out of the ranch by a strong force.
Bang! Bang!
The two silhouette landed hard on the ground. The two frightened and angry individuals were about to jump up and suddenly sensed danger in the air!
Froze, the two looked closer. They had no idea when the two dogs approached them. Their looks were human like and stared at them with malicious intent. It seemed to say that they would lung forward and snap their necks if they dare to move.
What was more surprisingly was that they were not barking, unlike your usual guard dogs.
What was going on?
Before they could comprehend what was going on, they were starting to notice that what was wrapped around their bodies were getting tighter and tighter. Looking down, they saw bright green vine wrapped around their chests and they couldn’t even shatter it with their chi.
What was this?
The two deacons exchanged a look and they saw fear in each other’s eyes. They realized they had fallen into the trap set by the Cheng’s.
Thinking of the Cheng’s, Deacon Lin’s eyes were full of murderous intent, whereas Deacon Bai was a bit surprised. He realized that he had underestimated the Cheng’s.
The two were not able to struggle free, and there were two dogs on guard next to them. Even though nobody from the Cheng’s had shown up yet, the two of martial master level1 were unable to leave!
“Young master, what should we do with them?” asked little Yuteng.
Cheng Xiao Xiao examined the two helpless men and laughed coldly, “Yuteng, take them to the bamboo forest and lock them up.”
“Yes, young master!” Yuteng use her consciousness and the two tied-up men disappeared.
Yuteng used her vine to create a small jail cell in the empty area in the deepest part of the bamboo forest and locked them inside.
Looking at the from the dimension, Cheng Xiao Xiao continued to order, “Yuteng, place our little snakies on your vine. If they try to escape, have the snakies bite them. No need to be polite, bite them however they want!”
“Hehe, young master. That’s such a good idea!”
Little Yuteng released the tens of snakes that they had been raising in the dimension. They all wrapped their bodies around the vines and blended in. They were difficult to detect in the moonlight.
The two deacons felt a chill down their spines. They were just in the Cheng’s ranch. Now they were somewhere entirely different, caged.
The worst part was they had no idea how it all happened.
Of course, from their perspective, this was all done by the Cheng’s!
After depositing them in the bamboo forest and having them guarded by the snakes. Cheng Xiao Xiao could now go back and sleep without worries.
Just when she had arrived at the front door, a familiar silhouette appeared in front of her. She looked closely at the person and called out lightly, “Dad!”
“Xiao Xiao, all taken care of?” Even though he knew that she had the dimension and a fairy to assit, he was still worried. He felt much better now that he saw her returning unscathed.
Cheng Xiao Xiao smiled at her father and nodded, “Yes, dad, all taken care of!”
“That’s good to hear. Now let’s go to bed!”
“Okay!”
The two of them didn’t exchange much before they returned to their own quarters and went to bed.
The next morning, after breakfast and sending the three young ones to cultivate, Cheng Biyuan asked about what happened the night before.
Cheng Xiao Xiao briefed him on the event, including the part that they were imprisoned by her inside the bamboo forest.
“Xiao Xiao, what are you planning on doing with them?” Cheng Biyuan wanted to know what was on her mind.
“Dad, what are you thinking?”
She answered his question with another question. She, too, wanted to know his thoughts.
Cheng Biyuan cast her a glance, “We can’t kill them. More will be coming for them shortly. We will need to be able to give them an answer then!”
“I understand. We won’t kill them!” Cheng Xiao Xiao never intended to kill them. After all, they weren’t trying to kill her family the night before, just the mythical animals.
Not punishable by death, but she wasn’t going to let them off lightly either!
“Oh yeah, dad, I want to discuss something with you!” Cheng Xiao Xiao remembered her intention with the bamboo forest.
“Oh yeah? What is it?”
“Dad, since the brothers like to cultivate in the bamboo forest behind the house. I want to improve it. I heard from Yuteng that if we irrigate it with well water, the bamboo can become spiritual. That way it could enhance the progress of cultivation!”
“Xiao Xiao, are you serious?”
Cheng Biyuan was pleasantly surprised. He knew what this meant. Cultivating at a location filled with spiritual air will enhance the speed of progress greatly. This he had heard of in past.
“Dad, I mean it, truly!” replied Cheng Xiao Xiao seriously.
“Great, great, great. This is awesome!” Cheng Biyuan was ecstatic. He rubbed his fist and became very ambitious, “If this works, our place will turn into sacred land. Ha ha ha ha ha…”
“Dad, don’t be so excited just yet. We have a large field of bamboos. You think this will be easy?” Cheng Xiao Xiao couldn’t help but to rain on his parade a little.
“Yes, of course it will be easy. It’s passed seeding time, the villagers had lots of free time. We will have some of them come to help out and pay them with food or money. A lot of them will be willing to help out!”
“Hmm, that might not be a bad idea!”
“I’ll go look for helpers right away!”
Cheng Biyuan was a man of his words. Immediately he headed out the door happily.
After her father left, Cheng Xiao Xiao walked inside the kitchen and saw her mother boiling water. She walked up to her and asked, “Mom, anything I can help you with?”
“Xiao Xiao you are here. How come you didn’t go cultivate? I don’t need much help around the house!” said Mrs. Cheng tenderly as the water boiled.
Xiao Xiao helped her mother to the stool and seated her, smiling lightly, “Mom, have me help you in the future. We don’t want you to burden yourself!”
“Xiao Xiao, a little bit of housework is not a burden!”
Mrs. Cheng stared at her precious daughter and she couldn’t help but sighed again, “Xiao Xiao, dad’s health has more or less recovered fully. Now I worry about your marriage. We should ask your dad to ask about in a little bit and look for a good family for you!”
“Mom, why are you bringing this up again?” Cheng Xiao Xiao frowned light and helplessly said, “Mom, I have said it before, there are no rush. Why don’t you let me worry about that?”
“Nonsense. What do you mean let you worry about that? These decisions are always made by the parents and the matchmaker!”
