Chapter 501: Planting Grape Seeds

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

The picture in Chen Zhao’s mind was very weird.

It was the rooftop of a high-rise building. Soone was lying there. They were hooded, so that Chen Zhao could not see their appearance, but the thing in their hands alard him.

It was a sniper rifle!

Chen Zhao suddenly opened his eyes. He realized sothing.

He looked at a tall building in the distance.

“Master, what’s wrong?”

“I saw a strange image. Think it’s from the eye. Soone is on that building there, pointing a sniper rifle at .”

“Oh... It’s Shadow Vision.” Samuel thought of sothing.

“What’s Shadow Vision?”

“Shadow Vision can detect looks of evil intent in places that you cannot see with your own eyes. That’s the function of your new eye.”

“Huh, that’s really useful.” Chen Zhao was very pleased. With Shadow Vision, he would be much safer.

...

Kelly put her sniper rifle away.

Just now, she really wanted to fire, but the Blood Brand on her arm started to hurt.

She knew what the Blood Brand was for. Whenever she had the intention to kill that person, the Blood Brand would stop her.

Of course, Kelly knew that she would not be able to kill him.

Nevertheless, she did not expect that person to discover her from several kiloters away!

After so thoughts, Kelly made a call.

“Hey, Chen.”

“Who are you? You sound familiar,” Chen Zhao said on the other side of the line.

“Chen, you already saw . Why do you have to pretend?”

“So why did you call ?”

Chen Zhao did not understand what the lady ant.

He saw her?

Wait, he saw her...

Was she the one who had pointed her sniper rifle at him?

From the voice, Chen Zhao suddenly recalled a woman.

A woman who had killed him.

That ti, Chen Zhao had just arrived in Arica.

That ti, he was still an honest man.

She was Kelly, that female killer.

“How about a deal?”

“What deal?”

“Soone wants you dead. The person found my organization, and I’m on the mission.”

“Are you going to tell that you won’t kill and I should reward you?”

“I’m not that naive. I know that I can’t kill you.”

Chen Zhao had just discovered Kelly from many kiloters away.

How was it possible to kill such a person?

Even without the Blood Brand, Kelly did not think that she could threaten him at all.

“So what’s the deal?”

“I’ll tell you who’s the person who wants you dead, and you’ll remove the Blood Brand.”

“How do I know that you’re not lying?”

Chen Zhao did not trust the female killer at all.

After all, Kelly had once managed to truly kill him.

“I can tell you who the person is first. If you think I’m not lying, then remove the Blood Brand for .”

“Sure.” After thinking, Chen Zhao accepted the deal.

“His na is Pierce South.”

“Wait, I know him, and he’s an enemy of mine. I know all along that he wants dead,” Chen Zhao interrupted Kelly. “If that’s all you can tell , I think you can forget about the deal.”

Kelly was stunned. It seed like she was still too naive.

“How about I help you find him?” Kelly asked.

“Can you?” Chen Zhao’s eyes brightened.

If Kelly could really find Pierce South for him, Chen Zhao would be happy to accept the deal.

“I’ll try my best.”

“Fine. If you can find him, I’ll dismiss your Blood Brand.”

Chen Zhao was extrely bothered by Pierce South. He was literally a mouse.

Chen Zhao could not locate him, but he kept harassing him. It was really irritating.

Every ti Chen Zhao heard that na, he would swear that he must kill that guy.

...

In the evening, Fali returned ho and threw a bag on the table.

Chen Zhao picked it up to take a look. It contained many seeds of sothing.

“Fali, what’s this for?”

“Robio gave them to . He said that our ho is a great place to grow grapes and make red wine.”

Chen Zhao patted his forehead. Fali, can’t you just admit that you want to grow grapes and make wine yourself?

Why do you have to push it to soone else?

Anyway, Chen Zhao did not expose Fali.

Since Fali wanted it, he did not mind.

“I’ll ask the underlings to plant them.”

“Chen, don’t you think that it’ll be more aningful if we do it ourselves?” Fali stared at Chen Zhao with a serious face. “After the grapes are ready, we’ll make the wine and share it with our friends. What do you think?”

“Alright. That’s thoughtful.” Chen Zhao pulled Fali and kissed her forehead.

He was only worried that Fali’s enthusiasm was short-lived. After the initial fun was over, she might ask the underlings to do the rest.

“Yura, Cheryl, let’s go and plant so grapes together.”

“Plant grapes? No, I want to keep playing...” Yura subconsciously rejected.

Very soon, however, she noticed Chen Zhao’s threatening look.

Two days ago, she had been grounded for a day just because she had talked back to Chen Zhao.

Hence, she swallowed the rest of the sentence. With a forced smile, she replied, “Sure.”

The group picked a stretch of land. It was about a hundred ters away from the house.

There were no trees here and sunlight was excellent, but there was so wild grass.

“What do we do first?” Fali asked.

In fact, she was actually being impetuous.

She had no plans at all.

“Remove the grass, of course,” Cheryl said.

Chen Zhao rolled his eyes. With Eugenice around, this was absolutely unnecessary.

“No need. Wild grass doesn’t grow here,” Chen Zhao said.

“Then what’s that over there?”

“Ignore those. Loosen the soil first,” Chen Zhao said, waving his hand.

The four began the task. Actually, the soil was already very loose, because silt had been dug from Mirror Lake and spread here. At least the surface was very soft.

Therefore, they easily readied a large area for planting the grapes.

With Chen Zhao’s strength, it was not even considered as labor.

As Cheryl and Yura loosed the soil, they started playing again.

It was characteristic of children of their age. There was no way they were going to focus on any physical work.

“Yura, look...”

Cheryl transford into a 1.8-ter-tall werewolf. Then, she stuck her claws into the soil and ran forward.

Chapter 502: Blackie Can Upgrade Too

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

The group didn’t go back inside until nightti.

Chen Zhao didn’t have Cheryl and Yura jump into the lake to bathe. If he had them go into the lake, they would probably play until morning.

After having them get clean in the pool, they went back to wash up in the house.

They had a pool at ho, but Chen Zhao and Fali didn’t use it often.

If they wanted to play with water, they would usually go into the lake.

They liked the feeling of the lake. The pool was mostly used for the pets to play in.

Of course, they would change the water every day too.

But when Yura and Cheryl ca back, Cheryl was supporting Yura.

Chen Zhao furrowed his brows and pulled Yura to the side. “Yura, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing, just a little tired.”

Chen Zhao took out his stethoscope to check Yura’s body.

The potion that Chen Zhao had given last ti improved her immunity.

However, Yura was still too weak and still easily sick.

If she got sick, it would be very dangerous for her.

Chen Zhao didn’t want to restrict Yura and tell her she couldn’t do this or that.

If possible, he wanted Yura to grow up happily, instead of being like a caged bird, watching others play while she could only sit to the side quietly.

But this way, it was also more dangerous.

Yura had a low fever. But because of her special body, she couldn’t even take antibiotics.

Right then, Blackie appeared beside Chen Zhao.

“I can sense her death.”

Chen Zhao’s expression darkened. He wasn’t mad at Blackie.

Whether Blackie existed or not, it all ant that Yura’s health had worsened again.

This ti, it even affected her life.

This also ant that Chen Zhao had no ti to waste ti while researching.

He rembered that his mother had invited him to Arica back then to make him donate his bone marrow.

This ant that his bone marrow matched Yura’s.

Usually, the match between siblings was the highest.

Of course, Chen Zhao and Yura were only half-siblings.

Donating bone marrow sounded scary, but it wasn’t as bad as one imagined.

Plus, there were safer ways to donate now.

Donating bone marrow was actually for the hematopoietic stem cells in the marrow.

People’s hematopoietic stem cells were all created through mitosis, producing more and more.

After extracting the bone marrow, the hematopoietic stem cells technically should split quickly, making up for the lower number.

In the past, donating bone marrow had a certain ratio. Though it was relatively safe, there were still certain risks.

Now, doctors used blood cultivation thods. One only needed to extract a tiny bit of hematopoietic stem cells from the bone marrow and cultivate it in the blood.

The danger for the donor was lowered to the max. It was basically like donating blood.

This was also called peripheral blood stem cell transplantation.

“Cheryl, go rest,” Chen Zhao said. “Fali, sleep with Cheryl tonight.”

“Okay.” Fali looked at Chen Zhao’s solemn expression and nodded.

Chen Zhao carried Yura to the basent. “Blackie, help .”

Chen Zhao didn’t have the conditions for cultivation, so he could only do a direct bone marrow transplant.

This surgery would mostly be on Chen Zhao too. As the recipient, Yura only had to passively accept the blood transfusion, so there weren’t many problems.

The main problem was still on Chen Zhao. He had to find soone who could help transplant the bone marrow.

Thus, he needed Blackie to extract it for him.

The entire transplantation process had to be done in the space crevice too.

“Chen Zhao, open a hole on your back first. I’ll use Life Extraction to extract your bone marrow.”

“Okay.” Chen Zhao sprawled on the cold tal bed and stabbed his back with difficulty.

Yura was laying on the bed beside him.

“Is the hole big enough?”

“Yes, it’s okay.”

Blackie started casting a spell. He extracted blood first.

Then Chen Zhao felt stabbing pain. White material mixed in blood gathered in Blackie’s palms.

“It should be enough,” Chen Zhao said.

Blackie softly pushed the liquid in his palms to Yura. The liquid started seeping in Yura’s body.

Just then, a black line appeared on Blackie’s back.

This black line was like the Dharmachakra from Buddhism. Chen Zhao looked at Blackie in shock.

Blackie didn’t seem to sense it. He was still attentively casting the spell.

Finally, the bone marrow lded completely into Yura’s body.

Blackie finally stopped. Now, he discovered his own changes.

“Huh?”

“Blackie, what happened?”

“It feels strange. I got stronger.”

“Why?”

“I think it’s because I saved your sister.”

“A Soulbringer saved soone and got rewarded?” Chen Zhao looked at him with strange eyes.

“No, I saved soone who was destined to die.”

Blackie reached up and pulled down his hood. He revealed a face like Chen Zhao’s.

“F*ck, why do you look like ?”

“I can be anyone. Appearances an nothing to .” Blackie changed to Fali’s face.

“Stop. You’re not allowed to turn into Fali.”

“Fine.” Blackie put the hood back on.

“Can the halo on your back disappear? It looks weird.”

“I can’t. That’s the representation of my abilities.”

“It’s just an extra halo. What significance does it have?”

“I’m no longer a Soulbringer. I’m a Deathbringer now.”

“Okay, that title sounds pretty scary. What other changes do you have now?”

“I can appear before people.”

“Okay, sounds pretty scary. What else? Like, can you kill soone for ?”

“No. If I kill, I’ll still be punished.”

“So, still not that useful.”

Actually, Blackie’s biggest use was still against evil spirits.

He was the most intimidating to evil spirits than Chen Zhao’s other demon servants.

Even Samuel couldn’t compare to Blackie.

However, with Blackie’s attitude, he didn’t seem that excited about his upgrade either.

Later, Chen Zhao carried Yura out of the space crevice.

She seed to have woken up in a daze.

But she still wasn’t very clear-headed. She didn’t wake up until the light in the room shone down.

“Brother... I think I saw heaven...”

“Why do you think that?”

“It was such a big, big castle. It must be heaven’s castle.”

1“Ha...If you say so.” It wasn’t like Chen Zhao could say, That wasn’t heaven. That was the Grim Reaper’s lair.
