167: Huang Xiaoyao, who has completed her apprenticeship

"Brother Tianxiao, have you forgotten? The seven-colored sacred lotus I gave you a few years ago."

Huang Xiaoyao's reminder caused Mo Tianxiao to pause for a moment.

"The seven-colored sacred lotus?"

Mo Tianxiao's consciousness sank into his spatial ring, searching through a pile of Heaven And Earth Treasures until he found that rare wonder of heaven and earth, the seven-colored sacred lotus.

With a flip of his palm, the lotus with seven differently colored petals floated above his hand, rotating slowly.

"This thing can reshape a Divine Soul?"

Mo Tianxiao was somewhat surprised. Although he knew the seven-colored sacred lotus was a rare item, he didn't know its exact effects. However, the fact that Xiao Fan had set his sights on it meant it was no ordinary object.

Gui Xujin's gaze fell upon the seven-colored sacred lotus, and a flash of joy appeared in his eyes. "The seven-colored sacred lotus indeed has the effect of reshaping a Divine Soul. With seven colors, it is just right to reshape Great Dragon Ao's Divine Soul."

He hadn't expected Great Dragon Ao to have such Luck.

A rare item like the seven-colored sacred lotus was extremely hard to find, and its growth environment was incredibly demanding. Under normal circumstances, it wouldn't grow to the seven-colored stage.

Only old fogies like Xuan Xiaotian, who enjoyed tending to plants and flowers, would know how to cultivate such a rare item.

"Young Friend Mo, right? Could you find it in your heart to part with this seven-colored sacred lotus and give it to me so I can reshape this boy's Divine Soul? When the time comes, whatever you want, just tell him, and he will find a way to get it for you."

Gui Xujin shamelessly asked Mo Tianxiao for the seven-colored sacred lotus.

After all, this was a Saint Realm Flood Dragon, a Yao Beast that might one day have the chance to transform into a Dragon. If he could save it, he naturally would.

At the same time, he felt somewhat sentimental. As soon as this Yao Race Auspicious Beast appeared, the Luck of his Yao Race seemed to have improved significantly. Luck was truly a mysterious and profound thing.

Mo Tianxiao was just about to hand the seven-colored sacred lotus to Gui Xujin. He had plenty of Heaven And Earth Treasures anyway. Although this seven-colored sacred lotus was a rare item, it didn't seem to have much use for him. It would be better used to earn a favor.

Or... exchange it for a dragon bone?

He was technically saving Great Dragon Ao's life; taking one of his True Dragon bones shouldn't be a problem, right?

"Brother Tianxiao, wait a moment."

Huang Xiaoyao stopped Mo Tianxiao's movement. She turned to look at Gui Xujin. "Senior, without Brother Tianxiao's seven-colored sacred lotus, this Flood Dragon wouldn't survive today, right?"

Gui Xujin looked at Huang Xiaoyao, a hint of confusion between his brows. What was this little girl trying to do?

"You are right. At the very least, my Chaotic Star Sea does not have any rare items that can reshape a Saint Realm Divine Soul."

"In other words, this Flood Dragon's life was saved by my Brother Tianxiao. His life belongs to my Brother Tianxiao. There's no problem with that, right?"

A cunning smile appeared on Huang Xiaoyao's Face.

Mo Tianxiao swallowed, his eyes widening slightly. Hearing Huang Xiaoyao's words, he felt like she was about to stir up some trouble.

Stirring up trouble right in front of the spokesperson of the Chaotic Star Sea, a dignified Quasi-Emperor Expert? Husky-Yao, you really are something!

A smile appeared on Gui Xujin's Face as he shook his head slightly. "Xiao Yao, just say what's on your mind. What will it take to save him?"

Huang Xiaoyao looked at Mo Tianxiao and then spoke. "My brother lacks a mount. I think this Flood Dragon is quite good. Let him acknowledge my brother as his master."

Beside them, Yun Sangyi's mouth couldn't help but drop wide open upon hearing this.

Mo Tianxiao's expression was full of surprise, but in his heart, he secretly gave Huang Xiaoyao a thumbs up.

Well done, Xiao Yao. I taught you how to rob, and you've already surpassed your master so quickly.

He was only coveting a True Dragon bone, thinking about whether he could get his hands on one.

Huang Xiaoyao, on the other hand, was directly finding him a Saint Realm Flood Dragon mount that could also double as an enforcer. This move was simply explosive!

Hearing Huang Xiaoyao's condition, Gui Xujin fell into contemplation. "I'll have to ask Great Dragon Ao for his own opinion. After all, this fellow isn't one to willingly serve others; otherwise, he wouldn't have established himself as a king and dominated this sea region."

"Then I don't care. If he doesn't acknowledge Brother Tianxiao as his master, then we won't save him."

"Furthermore, on Brother Tianxiao's way to the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains last time, he was attacked by him. If Brother Tianxiao hadn't run fast, he would have died at this guy's hands. Now that Brother Tianxiao is turning around to save him, shouldn't he pay a bit of a price?"

Huang Xiaoyao's words were well-reasoned, and her firm attitude gave Gui Xujin a bit of a headache.

If it were anyone else who dared to speak to him like this, they would have died countless times already.

But facing the daughter of his old friend, he really couldn't refuse to give her Face.

Gui Xujin looked at Mo Tianxiao, also pondering the matter in his heart.

The boy was not only the son-in-law recognized by Brother Feng but also Yue Liuli's Personal Disciple. If he forcibly snatched the boy's things, Brother Feng might be easy to talk to, but that lunatic Yue Liuli wouldn't listen to reason.

The three of them—Mo Tianxiao and the girls—remained silent, waiting for Gui Xujin's answer. His response would determine Great Dragon Ao's life or death.

After a long silence, Gui Xujin spoke. "I can make the decision for him to acknowledge you as his master, but there are conditions."

"What conditions?"

Mo Tianxiao asked hurriedly.

Was he really going to have a Flood Dragon as a mount? In a world without True Dragons, this Flood Dragon would be quite flashy, not to mention it was a Saint Realm Flood Dragon with extraordinary combat power.

With this enforcer, the safety of their subsequent actions would be greatly improved.

Gui Xujin spoke slowly. "First, when Great Dragon Ao becomes a Quasi-Emperor in the future, you must do your utmost to help him transform into a Dragon. Second, on the day you break through the restrictions of the Xuanhuang World, you must return his freedom."

Mo Tianxiao listened to the two conditions and nodded. "Deal."

He didn't know when Great Dragon Ao would become a Quasi-Emperor, and he didn't know how long it would take for him to break through the Xuanhuang World's restrictions. These two conditions didn't need to be considered for now.

Gui Xujin looked at Mo Tianxiao, feeling a bit suspicious. This kid agreed so quickly; he wouldn't be lying, would he?

But thinking about the boy's various identities, he felt at ease again.

He probably wouldn't lie.

"In that case, I'll begin."

Gui Xujin no longer hesitated. He took the seven-colored sacred lotus from Mo Tianxiao and began to reshape Great Dragon Ao's scattered Divine Soul.

Under Gui Xujin's control, the seven differently colored petals of the seven-colored sacred lotus slowly detached, merging one by one into that mass of chaotic Divine Soul.

Under the effect of the seven-colored sacred lotus, the chaotic Divine Soul gradually changed and began to take shape.

After about an hour, a complete Flood Dragon Divine Soul appeared before everyone's eyes.

"So this is the effect of the seven-colored sacred lotus? Truly miraculous."

It was indeed a wonder of heaven and earth. It was a good thing it hadn't fallen into Xiao Fan's hands; otherwise, that Golden Finger old man of his would probably have recovered even more of his strength.

"It's not over yet. Young Friend Mo, prepare your blood."

Gui Xujin crushed the lotus pod in his hand, and a surge of majestic energy instantly merged into Great Dragon Ao's newly shaped Divine Soul. In the next second, his Divine Soul became solid at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Blood!"

Hearing Gui Xujin's reminder, Mo Tianxiao forced out a drop of fresh blood and flicked it toward him.

Taking the blood, Gui Xujin formed a seal with one hand and threw the blood into Great Dragon Ao's Divine Soul. In an instant, a servitude mark appeared directly upon the soul.

"It is finished. Young Friend Mo, remember what you promised me."

"Don't worry, Senior. This Junior has it engraved in his heart."
