Under Chen De’s smooth combination of moves, the Shadow Wolf King’s brain crashed on the spot.

Just as the Shadow Wolf King was still in a bewildered state,

Chen De was already kneeling before him, about to call him his foster father.

The first time, this was truly the first time!

The Shadow Wolf King couldn't imagine it!

Over so many years, the Shadow Wolf King had seen countless shameless demons and humans.

But someone as utterly shameless as Chen De, the Shadow Wolf King was seeing for the first time.

Look at Chen De’s fawning and obsequious expression; even he, who was known for his shamelessness, had to admit defeat.

He had initially thought that whoever could throw the Northern Forest into such disarray would be some ruthless character.

The result was this?

However, putting aside the talk and the commotion, this guy’s ability to cause trouble was indeed very strong.

The Shadow Wolf King felt that he could send him to various parts of the Vortex Forest to stir up trouble and muddle the waters there.

Some things that he found inconvenient to do himself could also be entrusted to him.

It would be beneficial to his grand plans, with no drawbacks.

Even if there were problems later, he could just crush him.

Moreover, with Chen De’s shameless demeanor!

To take such a foster son.

That was truly...

Too awesome!

The Shadow Wolf King mused, quickly made his decision, and looked down at Chen De,

“Good, seeing how clever and sensible you are, this King will accept you as his foster son.”

It’s done!

Upon hearing this, Chen De’s face immediately broke into a wide smile, and he performed another grand bow, exclaiming, “Foster Father above, please accept this child’s bow!”

He then kowtowed three more times with resounding thuds.

From then on, Chen De became the Shadow Wolf King’s foster son.

The Shadow Wolf King was very satisfied with Chen De’s respect, and nodded slightly,

“My child, we are father and son, yet I don’t even know your name. I saw you refer to yourself as Bu just now; are you called Bu?”

Before you, of course I am Lu Bu.

So Chen De quickly replied,

“Not so, Esteemed Foster Father. My full name is Chen De, and my courtesy name is Lu Bu, styled Fengxian. I referred to myself as Bu before you to express my admiration for you.

From now on, I am Lu Bu before you. You can call me Bu’er or Fengxian.

Only you can call me that; besides you, everyone else can only call me Chen De!”

After Chen De finished speaking, the Shadow Wolf King immediately tried calling him.

“My child, Chen De!”

This “My child, Chen De” made Chen De extremely uncomfortable.

How could this be? How could this be allowed?

When acknowledging a foster father, of course he had to use the Lu Bu persona; it came with a buff.

If he didn't use the Lu Bu persona, Chen De’s efforts would be in vain.

So Chen De’s expression immediately changed, becoming somewhat sad, a little downcast.

He looked like he felt his foster father didn't value him enough, unwilling to treat him as a son.

He looked at the Shadow Wolf King with a hint of grievance, but still responded,

“Your child is here!”

His voice was weak and listless.

Anyone unaware would think he had suffered a great injustice.

Seeing this, the Shadow Wolf King tried to call out tentatively again.

“My child, Fengxian!”

Here it comes!

Hearing this, Chen De immediately beamed with joy, nodding repeatedly in affirmation, and excitedly said:

“Yes, yes, yes! That’s it! That’s it! Foster Father, I’m here! I’m here!”

Chen De’s expression was incredibly happy, like a lost child finding his father.

Then the Shadow Wolf King called out again, wanting to see Chen De’s reaction once more.

“Bu’er!”

Indeed, Chen De became even more excited, nodding his head vigorously.

“I’m here, I’m here, Foster Father!”

The single word “Bu’er” made Chen De jump up happily, doing a somersault in the air, and then rolling on the ground upon landing.

Then he scrambled up and declared to his foster father, the Shadow Wolf King,

“I, Lu Bu, am willing to brave mountains of blades and seas of fire for my Foster Father, to be utterly devoted, yet still unable to repay even a fraction of your kindness!”

Looking at Chen De, he was the spitting image of a fanatic.

At this moment, Chen De himself was impressed by his own acting, as if the Shadow Wolf King was truly his biological father.

This made the Shadow Wolf King wonder if this convenient son, Chen De, was truly influenced by his demonic charm.

He knew that among humans, there were some fervent admirers who would do incredibly outrageous things just to meet their idols.

He hadn't expected that he now had one such admirer.

He had merely spared his life, and he was already so grateful.

Was this kid so easy to fool?

So the Shadow Wolf King, somewhat puzzled, asked, “Bu’er, since you are so eager to join me, even killing my subordinates just to meet me.

Why did you run away as soon as you saw me? And even tried to attack me?”

Why did I run as soon as I saw you?

Nonsense!

If I could have escaped, wouldn't I have avoided recognizing you as my foster father? It's just that I couldn't escape.

Chen De’s heart tightened!

Could it be that his cover was about to be blown?

If he couldn't answer, wouldn't Chen De be utterly humiliated?

Chen De, being so moral, was naturally a person who valued his reputation.

No one knew how much Chen De valued the concept of reputation.

So he felt he couldn't let his cover be blown!

Fortunately, Chen De was a quick-witted person and quickly thought of a countermeasure.

So he said in an even more sincere tone, “Esteemed Foster Father, I was also afraid that you might misunderstand me and accidentally kill me.

My death is not important; I was just afraid that I would no longer have the opportunity to pledge loyalty to you, Esteemed Foster Father.”

Seeing the Shadow Wolf King’s hesitant expression.

Chen De immediately steeled his heart, placed his claw in front of his neck, and made a gesture,

“If Foster Father still doesn’t believe your child, your child is willing to die to prove his sincerity, and repay Foster Father’s kindness in the next life.”

Stop him! Stop him!

Sure enough, the next moment, the Shadow Wolf King acted, moving his claw aside with a speed Chen De couldn't perceive.

And he reproached, “You, you’re too sensitive. Your Foster Father merely had a small doubt; I have no doubt about your loyalty.”

Chen De’s eyes were red, and he asked, “Really?”

The Shadow Wolf King said solemnly, “Naturally.”

So Chen De happily said, “That’s good, I knew Foster Father believed me. Foster Father is the best!”

Chen De was almost disgusted with himself, his stomach churning, but fortunately, he had finally passed the test.

Looking at Chen De’s worshipful expression.

The Shadow Wolf King was in a great mood and took out a few spirit herbs, intending to give them to Chen De.

“We are father and son, and it’s our first meeting. How can I, as a foster father, not offer something?

Here, take these five spirit herbs. These are all mid-grade spirit herbs!”

Chen De, seeing this, repeatedly expressed that he couldn't accept them, couldn't accept them.

He acknowledged him as his foster father not for these spirit herbs, but to better show filial piety to his foster father.

It’s just that Chen De’s eyes were almost glowing green now; although he said no, he desperately wanted them in his heart!

The Shadow Wolf King, however, put on a stern face, feigning anger, and stated that if Chen De didn't accept them, he would no longer be his godson.

Look, he was giving him things, and he had to beg him to take them!

Sure enough, these words seemed to genuinely scare Chen De; Chen De initially repeatedly refused, but after hearing this, he quickly put away the spirit herbs, afraid of being even a moment too slow.

He finally got them!

Although Chen De desperately wanted them in his heart at this moment, he still said that he was only accepting them for now to improve his strength.

Once he became stronger, he would repay his foster father's kindness tenfold or a hundredfold.

His foster father’s kindness was endless!

Seeing Chen De accept his spirit herbs, the Shadow Wolf King smiled with satisfaction,

“Since you have accepted the spirit herbs, go back and refine them quickly.

I see you are still at Demon Qi Realm Seventh Stage; I hope to see you at Demon Qi Realm Eighth Stage when I see you tomorrow.”

“Yes, Foster Father, your child will definitely not disappoint you, and will definitely show good filial piety to you!”

“You, don’t always talk about filial piety; filial piety requires actual action.”

The Shadow Wolf King said with a smile and a scolding tone.

Chen De immediately showed a knowing smile, “Okay, Foster Father, I will definitely use practical actions to show you my filial piety.”

Just you wait!

The Shadow Wolf King nodded with satisfaction.

“Good, very good.”

Then the Shadow Wolf King took advantage of the situation and said, “Bu’er! Your Foster Father just happens to have an important matter that needs you to do.

You are now the person I trust most; this matter is perfect for you!”

Nima, this picture is too short, isn't it?

Sure enough, no benefits come for free.

Chen De, however, appeared incredibly excited, looking like he was about to burst with excitement on the spot; his foster father had assigned him a task, he was truly too happy!

The Shadow Wolf King was very pleased with Chen De’s current performance and soothed him,

“Oh, Bu’er! Don’t always be so emotional, still like a child.

Don’t rush with the task for now; come find me after your cultivation breaks through.”

Chen De, however, shook his head and said,

“No, no, Foster Father, I will always be a child before you, I will always be your Bu’er!

Bu’er is already impatient to show you his filial piety.”

My Fangtian Huaji is really about to lose control!

“Okay, Bu’er! Your father will wait for you to show your filial piety! But…”

As he spoke, the Shadow Wolf King seemed to suddenly remember, and cautioned Chen De,

“What happened between us today must absolutely not be known by other demon beasts.

Otherwise, if they all follow suit, this forest will be chaotic, and your father will have a headache.”

Then he looked at Chen De with a half-smile and said, “You wouldn’t want to suddenly have several brothers and sisters, would you?”

Upon hearing this, Chen De immediately shook his head like a rattle-drum,

“Foster Father, rest assured, your child will keep his mouth shut and will not cause you any trouble.”

Nonsense, all your inheritance will be mine alone; whoever dares to snatch it from Chen De, he will kill them.

After Chen De finished speaking, he bid farewell to the Shadow Wolf King, saying he was going back to refine the spirit herbs, only wishing for his cultivation to break through soon so he could quickly show filial piety to his foster father.

The Shadow Wolf King watched Chen De’s departing back, a profound smile on his face.
