251: You two work the day shift, Xiaoqing works the night shift.

“This is Luo Shuo, the future successor of the current Demon Emperor, the First Prince.”

Chen Heng pulled Luo Shuo, who was standing behind him, over and introduced him to Gou Longxun and the others.

Hearing that this inconspicuous man in front of them was actually the First Prince of the Eastern Demon Alliance, everyone immediately stood up and bowed.

“Old man Gou Longxun pays his respects, Your Highness.”

Although Luo Shuo was of the Yao Race, Gou Longxun and the others still showed him sufficient respect.

“There’s no need to bow. I am merely an ordinary Yao Race member following Big Brother Chen.”

Luo Shuo didn’t dare let Chen Heng’s elders bow to him; wouldn’t that just cause him trouble?

“Indeed, there’s no need to be polite with him; he’s just a weakling Demon Saint.”

Chen Heng also waved his hand, signaling to the others not to be nervous.

“Gang Leader, when did you remarry?” Chen Heng asked, looking at Gou Longying, who was standing beside Gou Longxun.

“Tsk tsk tsk, an old tree blossoming! Is that white-bearded old man your father-in-law?”

“?” Gou Longxun looked at his daughter beside him, then at Han Yun, who was utterly bewildered, and couldn’t help but laugh.

“Chen Heng, you rascal, didn’t I tell you before? This is my daughter, Gou Longying.”

Gou Longxun pulled Gou Longying to his side and introduced her.

“The white-bearded old man you mentioned is my daughter’s Master, named Han Yun.”

“Didn’t expect it, did you? My daughter is also a Xiantian Realm expert.”

Although they didn’t know the true strength of a Demon Saint, it was definitely much stronger than theirs.

And since the legendary Dragon Prodigy of the Yao Race had been beaten to death by Chen Heng, they couldn’t even imagine how strong Chen Heng was now.

But this didn’t prevent Gou Longxun from feeling proud of his daughter.

What kind of person was Chen Heng?

He was a Prodigy; his daughter at most had some talent, how could she be compared to a Prodigy?

Even if Chen Heng said he was a deity now, Gou Longxun wouldn’t be surprised.

“So that’s it. It seems I misunderstood.” Chen Heng rubbed his nose.

“Bai Jun, is there any way to replenish the lost Qi and Lifespan for the Gang Leader and the others?”

Chen Heng used a rather clumsy method to change the subject.

“Yes, it’s not a difficult task.” Bai Jun nodded, replying with full confidence.

“It only requires two Spiritual Plants and some common medicinal ingredients.”

“Done. Give the prescription to the Gang Leader, and two Spiritual Plants.”

Bai Jun nodded and took out two slender Spiritual Plants, imbued with Spiritual Qi, from a snake skin pouch.

“Gang Leader Gou Long, this is the prescription; it’s enough for all the common people in the city to use.”

Writing out the prescription, Bai Jun told Gou Longxun some precautions.

“Also, this medicine should not be consumed excessively, especially in your current state of depleted Qi…”

After saying what needed to be said, Gou Longxun knew it wasn’t good to disturb Chen Heng’s family reunion, so he cupped his hands and led the others away from the Chen Family Courtyard.

“Remember to come to the gang to sit down when you have time. The brothers are all quite worried about you.”

Xu Lieying said to Chen Heng as he left.

“Definitely. I’ll talk about it after I rest for a couple of days.” Chen Heng nodded and saw them off.

Returning home, Chen Heng let out a long breath.

A long-lost sense of relaxation enveloped Chen Heng, and sleepiness gradually crept in.

Xiao He, who had been following him silently, covered her young Master with a quilt and quietly left after closing the door.

“Young Master, your safe return is better than anything…”

…A night passed quickly, and Chen Heng slept very comfortably this night.

Getting up from bed feeling refreshed, Chen Heng immediately saw Xiao He placing breakfast on the table.

“Xiao He, come here.” Chen Heng waved to Xiao He.

“Oh, young Master, you’re awake!” Xiao He quickly walked over, awaiting Chen Heng’s instructions.

“Come, feed young Master.” Chen Heng leaned against the headboard, pointing to his wide-open mouth.

“Alright, Xiao He will feed young Master now.”

Xiao He happily picked up a bowl of ‘porridge’ that had very few grains of rice and was mostly meat, spooning it into Chen Heng’s mouth one spoonful at a time.

Half an hour later, this breakfast, enough to stuff an ox to death, was all fed into Chen Heng’s mouth by Xiao He.

“I’ve been away for so long; I made you worry.”

Gently patting Xiao He’s head, Chen Heng said.

“Young Master, your safe return is better than anything.” As soon as this was mentioned, Xiao He’s eyes began to redden.

“I… I almost died of fright when I heard that young Master was missing…”

Chen Heng gently hugged Xiao He, and with a slight force of his fingers, Xiao He collapsed softly into his arms.

Although he was asleep yesterday, he still had a perception of the outside world.

This silly girl had guarded his window all night and had forced herself to stay awake to prepare his breakfast.

It was time for her to get some good rest.

Placing Xiao He on his bed, Chen Heng put on his coat and walked out of the small courtyard.

“Hehehe, my darling, I finally get to see you again…”

A strange and lewd sound came from Bai Jun’s courtyard.

Chen Heng wasn’t surprised; this guy had been hugging the spirit gathering furnace and cackling ever since Gou Longxun left yesterday.

“Oh, son, you’re awake!”

Chen Fugui had just finished practicing the health-preserving fist technique Bai Jun taught him, drenched in sweat.

“The stone piers and stone pillars you asked me to prepare yesterday are all ready and placed at the entrance.”

“Done.” Chen Heng nodded, gently clapping his hands.

In an instant, Snake Green appeared beside Chen Heng with the siblings Zhu Ri and Zhu Chang.

“Come, come, do you see those two stone piers at the entrance?”

Chen Heng led the three out the main door, pointing to the two large stone piers placed at the entrance and asked.

“Starting today, you two siblings will take the day shift, which is squatting from Mao Shi to You Shi.”

“Little Green, you’re in charge of the night shift, squatting from You Shi to Yin Shi.”

“These two stone piers are for you two siblings, and that stone pillar is for you, Little Green.”

“…” Although the siblings Zhu Ri and Zhu Chang had guessed this would happen, they didn’t expect Chen Heng to actually make two Demon Kings guard the gate… After a little over half an hour, Chen Heng looked at the two white tigers squatting in front of him and nodded with satisfaction.

“That’s right, just like that. Remember how I taught you?”

“I remember…” Zhu Ri sighed somewhat helplessly.

Who told him to agree? It was only a few decades of time; he could afford to waste it.

“When someone comes, ask who they are. If they don’t speak, stand up and glare at them.”

“If glaring at them still doesn’t make them leave, then directly take action. If anything happens, you’ll take responsibility.”

“That’s right, Little Green, do you understand?”

Chen Heng turned to look at Snake Green.

“Understood, Master. I will definitely guard the gate well!” Snake Green nodded vigorously.

“Alright, from now on, the family’s main gate is entrusted to you all.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t let your cultivation fall behind. Everyone will have Dragon Prodigy meat to eat every day.”

The Dragon Prodigy was quite large; even if they ate it every day, it wouldn’t be finished in a hundred or eighty years.
