Chapter 164: Compulsory Education Is Still Necessary

Qin Mengting said enviously,

“Qin Xue, can you summon the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf for us to see?”

Qin Xue nodded, and then the red Tian Xiao Fire Wolf reappeared before everyone.

Everyone touched it curiously, and the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf was incredibly docile, showing no signs of being a Peak Saint King.

At this moment, the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf spoke in human tongue,

“Master, I’ll take you up to see the full view of the Ten Thousand Demons Great Forest.”

Qin Xue looked at Qin Wudao, because if Qin Wudao hadn't arranged for her to retrieve the seven star immortal grass, she wouldn't have obtained such an Opportunity.

Qin Wudao nodded.

“Go ahead. Our Family token has a locator, so it won’t be too late to find us later.”

Then Qin Xue rode on the back of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf. With a burst of power, the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf instantly transformed into a red stream of light and flew towards the sky. Its speed was so fast that even Qin Wudao's Great Perfection Golden Immortal Divine Sense couldn't capture it.

The Qin Family members looked enviously at Qin Xue, who had disappeared into the sky. Some showed excitement, while others showed disappointment, after all, that was a Peak Saint King mount.

Especially those who ranked in the bottom hundred this time, their desire for a good mount was even more urgent. This was the most direct way to increase their combat power. If they ranked in the bottom hundred twice more, the Family's Secret Realm would be closed off to them in the future. They could not bear such consequences.

Then, everyone continued to explore the Ten Thousand Demons Great Forest, hoping to obtain a mount or battle beast like the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf themselves.

At this moment, high in the sky, Qin Xue stroked the fur of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf and said,

“Senior Tian Xiao Fire Wolf, why did you recognize me as your Master? Also, how should I address you in the future?”

The Tian Xiao Wolf King said,

“Master, you can just call me Xiao Tian from now on. Xiao Tian feels a strong connection with you, so I recognized you as my Master. I hope Master won't dislike me in the future.”

In fact, the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf knew clearly that the Seven Great Peak Groups in the Ten Thousand Demons Great Forest were all eyeing this group of young people. It was truly fortunate for him to recognize Qin Xue as his Master, because he was just about to collect the seven star immortal grass for his Clan's Junior to refine their bodies, but he unexpectedly encountered the Qin Family members.

Of course, it wouldn't miss this Opportunity, so it directly recognized Qin Xue as its Master.

At this moment, within the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan.

“Clan Chief, Clan Chief, great news, great news! The Seventh Princess has successfully recognized her Master!”

At this moment, a Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan member said excitedly.

Hearing the Clan member's words, the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf's Clan Chief, a Peak One Revolution Great Emperor, was now teary-eyed and said excitedly,

“Xiao Qi, well done! Our Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan is about to rise, about to rise! Quickly go and invite the Old Ancestor, tell the Old Ancestor this good news to bring him joy. If the Old Ancestor knows this good news, he might even live a few more days.”

At this moment, in the sky, the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf said,

“Master, Xiao Tian’s Family is down below. I’ll take Master to see them.”

Hearing the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf’s words, Qin Xue said solemnly,

“Xiao Tian, if your Family members know that you recognized me, a Heavenly Immortal Cultivator, as your Master, will they make you dissolve the contract between us?”

“Master, no, if my Family members knew, they would be overjoyed. Moreover, our Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan has a treasure called the fire source crystal, which can quickly help Master Breakthrough to the Saint Realm.”

Upon hearing of Breakthrough to the Saint Realm, Qin Xue was instantly moved.

“Alright, Xiao Tian, then I’ll go with you to take a look.”

At this moment, within the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan, the entire Clan was celebrating because the Seventh Princess had successfully recognized her Master, and their Old Ancestor, with white hair, sat on the main seat with a smile.

“Xiao Qi is truly a good child. To be able to recognize a Qin Family member as her Master, our Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan is now truly established in the Ten Thousand Demons Great Forest.”

“Yes, the Thousand Jun Ant Clan had been hoping for this, but Xiao Qi actually accomplished it. Xiao Qi is truly the pride of our Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan.”

At this moment, the Clan Chief of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan said.

At this moment, a Clan member of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan excitedly ran into the hall, panting heavily, and said,

“Old Ancestor, Clan Chief, the Seventh Princess is back! The Seventh Princess has brought her Master back to the Family!”

Hearing this, the Clan Chief of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan said with a solemn expression,

“Quick, all Clan members, quickly go and welcome them, quickly go and welcome them.”

At this moment, after the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf landed with Qin Xue, it transformed into a beautiful young woman, wearing a red dress, which was very beautiful.

Qin Xue covered her mouth, showing an unbelievable expression.

“Xiao Tian, I didn’t expect you to be so beautiful after transforming.”

Xiao Tian smiled, then took Qin Xue's hand and entered the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan.

At this moment, hundreds of Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan members were already waiting inside, considered their core Clan members.

“Greetings, Young Miss Qin.”

At this moment, the people of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan said respectfully in unison.

At this moment, Xiao Tian said,

“Master, this is our Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan’s Old Ancestor, a Second Revolution Great Emperor Cultivator.”

“This is my father, also the Clan Chief of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan, a Peak One Revolution Great Emperor Cultivator.”

“This is my mother, also a One Revolution Great Emperor Cultivator.”

“This is my eldest brother, a One Revolution Great Emperor Cultivator.”

“This is my second brother, a Quasi-Emperor Cultivator.”

…

“This is my eighth brother, a Peak Great Saint Cultivator.”

After introducing the core members of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf, Qin Xue was shocked. She never expected the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan to be so powerful, with Great Emperor guarding them. If this were in the Northern Region, it would be enough to dominate one side, yet they were so polite to her.

“I am Qin Xue, greetings to all Seniors.”

The reason she called them Seniors was because no one present had a lower Cultivation than her; the lowest was a Peak Saint.

At this moment, the Grand Elder of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf slowly rose with the support of his Clan members and then came to Qin Xue's side.

“Xiao Xue, it is Xiao Tian’s honor to be with you. Our entire Clan feels honored that it could recognize you as its Master.”

Qin Xue was overwhelmed by the favor at this moment. After all, the white-haired old man in front of her was a genuine Second Revolution Great Emperor, yet he was so respectful to her.

“Senior, rest assured, I will treat Xiao Tian like Family when she is with me.”

Everyone chatted for a while, then took their seats.

At this moment, Qin Xue said,

“Xiao Tian, I feel that your Old Ancestor’s condition isn’t right. What exactly is going on?”

At this moment, Xiao Tian said sadly,

“Master, our Old Ancestor is only considered mid-to-low tier in the Ten Thousand Demons Great Forest. A few years ago, our Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan had a conflict with the Black Water Mysterious Snake Clan, and the Old Ancestor was severely injured at that time and poisoned. Currently, the poison has spread throughout his body, constantly devouring the Old Ancestor’s Lifespan. It’s estimated to be a matter of days.”

Hearing this, Qin Xue stood up and walked to the center of the living room, then said to the old man on the platform,

“Senior, it is my honor that Xiao Tian can recognize me as her Master. I just heard Xiao Tian say that Senior was severely injured in a fight with the Black Water Mysterious Snake. I have a bottle of spiritual spring here, which I will give to Senior, hoping it will help with Senior’s injuries.”

Hearing this, the Old Ancestor of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf smiled and said,

“Xiao Xue, you are thoughtful, but my poison has already penetrated deep into my internal organs. To see Xiao Tian find a good Master, I can die without regrets.”

At this moment, Xiao Tian looked at Qin Xue with gratitude. Although it knew that something a Heavenly Immortal brought out couldn't have any effect on a Great Emperor, this was Qin Xue's intention, and it couldn't reject Qin Xue's Face. After all, standing behind Qin Xue was the Qin Clan, which even the Black Dragon Clan had to bow down to.

Then Xiao Tian handed the bottle of spiritual spring to the Old Ancestor of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf.

The Old Ancestor of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf opened the jade bottle, and a clear fragrance wafted out. After smelling it, he instantly felt a few points clearer.

At this moment, he no longer underestimated Qin Xue's gift, and then drank it all in one gulp.

And at this moment, everyone below was dumbfounded.

The Clan Chief of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan's eyes widened at this moment, and he said with a trembling voice,

“Old Ancestor, Old Ancestor, your hair has turned red, it’s turned red, and the wrinkles on your Face have also disappeared.”

And the Old Ancestor of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan was even more shocked, because his life fire, which should have been extinguished, was now reignited, even more so than before. Moreover, the Black Water Mysterious Snake's poison was now dissolved by a strange energy, and his Lifespan had been extended by at least a thousand years—that was a whole thousand years!

Then, a Second Revolution Great Emperor Aura spread out from his body. He looked at the jade bottle in his hand in shock, roaring in his heart,

“This… how is this possible? What kind of spiritual spring is this? It actually extended my Lifespan by a thousand years, and the poison is also gone! Is this the foundation of the Qin Family? Even a Heavenly Immortal Realm Clan member can produce such a divine item! How powerful is the Qin Clan exactly?”

At this moment, the Grand Elder of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf said excitedly,

“Xiao Tian, you truly found a good Master! Thanks to you, Old Ancestor, my body has fully recovered, and my Lifespan has been extended by a thousand years. You can rest assured and follow Xiao Xue.”

Then the Old Ancestor of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf said to Qin Xue,

“Xiao Xue, you are truly the great benefactor of our Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan. In the future, if Xiao Tian is disobedient, just tell me, and I will deal with her.”

Qin Xue said at this moment,

“Senior, Xiao Tian treats me very well, and I also thank Xiao Tian for thinking highly of me. However, it's getting late now, and I must leave. My Family members are still waiting for me.”

Hearing Qin Xue's words, the Old Ancestor of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf gave the Clan Chief a look, and then the Clan Chief of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf hurried away.

Before long, the Clan Chief of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan came over, holding a Storage Ring in his hand.

“Xiao Xue, this is a small token of our Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan’s appreciation. Inside are two hundred thousand fire source crystals, which can help you quickly Breakthrough to the Saint Realm. There are also our Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan’s specialties and spiritual fruits. Please accept them.”

Qin Xue took the Storage Ring, scanned inside, and then her Face changed dramatically, sighing inwardly,

This… This… The Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan didn’t empty their Clan’s treasury, did they? Because there were simply too many things inside. Not to mention the fire source crystal, a supreme treasure, there were hundreds of seven star immortal grass alone, and some things she didn’t even recognize, but their grade was definitely higher than the seven star immortal grass.

“Senior, this, this gift is too valuable, I cannot accept it.”

At this moment, the Old Ancestor of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan smiled kindly.

“Some of these resources are for you, and the other part is for Xiao Tian. Xiao Tian also needs a lot of resources for her Cultivation. I don't want Xiao Tian to hold you back in the near future.”

In fact, the Clan Chief of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf knew that these resources were enough for Xiao Tian to Breakthrough to the Emperor Realm, after all, what he had just taken was half of the resources in the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan's treasury.

Xiao Tian said at this moment,

“Master, just take it. After all, the spiritual spring you just gave to the Old Ancestor is priceless. These things are less than one percent of the value of your gift. After all, if life is gone, what use are these treasures?”

Then Xiao Tian directly took the Storage Ring and put it into Qin Xue's hand.

“Master, let’s go. Otherwise, your Family members will be anxious. We’ve been out for a while now.”

Qin Xue nodded, then said,

“Senior, thank you for your treasures. I know elderly people like to drink tea. These are some tea leaves I usually save, and I’ll give them to Senior. Then I’ll be leaving. If I have the Opportunity in the future, I’ll bring Xiao Tian back to see you all.”

After speaking, Qin Xue handed a jade box to the Clan Chief of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf.

Then Xiao Tian transformed into her true form and flew towards the distance, disappearing from everyone's sight shortly after.

At this moment, the Clan Chief of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf opened the jade box Qin Xue had given him. Inside, three green tea leaves were neatly arranged. He frowned and said,

“This Qin Xue is too stingy, isn’t she? She knows the Old Ancestor likes to drink tea, but she only gave three tea leaves, and they’re green. This is completely disregarding the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan! The things we just gave her were wasted. Sigh.”

The Old Ancestor of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf frowned slightly. He did not agree with what the Clan Chief of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf said.

“You need to change this bad habit. Not everything can be measured by value. The spiritual spring Qin Xue just gave me, even if you gave her the entire treasury, wouldn’t be too much. Moreover, this is someone’s sincerity, do you understand sincerity? Don’t you understand the principle of a small gift, but great meaning?”

“Bring it over. I like everything Qin Xue gives me. Giving it to you would be a waste.”

After being reprimanded, the Clan Chief of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf lowered his head, not daring to look directly, then closed the jade box and handed it over.

The Old Ancestor of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf took the jade box, smiling, and said,

“Even if Qin Xue only gave a few tea leaves, I would still like them, and they are green, so they must be freshly picked. This is someone’s sincerity.”

However, when he opened the jade box, he became restless.

What did he see?

He actually saw three green leaves neatly arranged inside, but these leaves were exactly like the Enlightenment Tea Leaves recorded in the Clan's ancient texts.

He took a sharp breath, then cursed angrily,

“Idiot, take a good look at what this is!”

The Clan Chief of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf said distractedly,

“Isn’t it just a few tea leaves?”

The Old Ancestor of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf said, disappointed,

“I always told you to read more books, but you never did. You only know how to fight and kill. When it really comes down to it, you don’t know anything, and you’re not afraid of others laughing at you.”

“Do you know what this is? How much are these three tea leaves worth?”

The Clan Chief of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf listened to the Old Ancestor’s scolding and said distractedly,

“Aren’t they just three tea leaves? Take them if you like them, I don’t care for them anyway.”

The Old Ancestor of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf was now exasperated.

“Good. Good. Good. Today I will open your eyes and give you, this illiterate, some knowledge. These tea leaves are the legendary Enlightenment Tea Leaves.”

When the words “Enlightenment Tea Leaves” were uttered by the Old Ancestor of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf, the Clan Chief of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf’s eyes widened, and he had an incredulous expression. He wailed in his heart,

“Ah… Ah… Ah, what have I done? These are actually Enlightenment Tea Leaves! I’m such an idiot! How could anything given by a Qin Family member be ordinary? I’m truly a pig-headed fool!”

Then he showed a fawning expression,

“Old Ancestor, can you give me one? I am currently a Peak One Revolution Great Emperor. If I have this one Enlightenment Tea Leaf, I might be able to Breakthrough to a Second Revolution Great Emperor.”

The Old Ancestor of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf scoffed,

“Who was it just now who said they didn’t care for them? I’ll gladly accept these three tea leaves. I need to go and savor them properly. Thank you.”

“Old Ancestor, don’t! Please give me one! I’m illiterate, it’s my fault. You shouldn’t argue with an illiterate, right?”

The Old Ancestor of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf said at this moment,

“It’s not impossible if you want it. Go and memorize all the books in the Scripture Pavilion for me right now. If you remember all of them, I can consider giving you one.”

The Clan Chief of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf was overjoyed upon hearing this.

“Old Ancestor, you said it! I’ll go memorize them right now. Remember your promise.”

Hearing this, the Old Ancestor of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf smiled and shook his head.

“It seems there’s always something to conquer something else. Before, when I told you to read, you refused to, but now you’re so eager.”

“It seems all Clan members of the Tian Xiao Fire Wolf Clan will have to undergo compulsory education. Reading is still very beneficial, otherwise, they might obtain a great treasure and not even realize it, throwing it away like trash.”
