117: I prefer someone like my master...

Leaving the Qin Family ancestral land, Qin Tian looked up at the sky and murmured silently.

"Revered Master and Mother... they should be back by now, right?"

Inspecting his internal state, Qin Tian tidied his appearance.

At the same time, he adjusted his aura to its optimal state.

After a careful check, Qin Tian nodded in satisfaction.

"When the time comes, I'll give Revered Master a surprise!"

Before his voice could fade, Qin Tian transformed into a stream of light and soared away... Qin Longevity looked up slightly, "Old Ancestor, why didn't you explain the matter between him and her clearly?"

An aged voice rang out.

"There is only one red dust fate seed in the world; the divination does not reveal the full picture."

"Perhaps there is a way for them to coexist together, who can say..."

Qin Longevity remained silent for a long time, letting out a heavy sigh.

"That girl has suffered..."

"If the day comes when that brat Qin Tian learns the truth, he will definitely flip the Qin Family ancestral land upside down..."

The aged sighing continued unabated.

"Let him be..."

...In the Imperial City, no one had left.

They were all waiting for Qin Tian to emerge.

The battle of the Abyss Prison.

Now, Qin Tian's name had already shaken the Ancient Immortal world.

Everyone knew that he possessed infinite possibilities!

In the future, he might even prove his Dao and achieve longevity!

"He's out!"

Someone shouted.

Everyone's Divine Thought reached out simultaneously.

In mid-air, Qin Tian was momentarily dazed.

What are they doing?

Divine Thoughts flooded in like an overwhelming tide, seemingly trying to see through him completely without missing a single detail... If he went down there, he would definitely be surrounded until not a drop of water could leak through... Privacy!

My privacy!

Without hesitation, Qin Tian flickered and vanished.

"Huh?"

The crowd was stunned for a moment.

"Qin Tian, don't leave!"

"My clan has a pearl of a girl who is about your age and admires you greatly!"

"My clan has a Spirit Beast that can swallow the heavens and eat the moon..."

One after another, they rushed toward the direction where Qin Tian had disappeared.

Bai Xiyin and the others were instantly squeezed to the back of the crowd.

The current Imperial City was exactly like a massive celebrity-chasing scene... "Void Enticement"

"Enticement" X10086

"Phew, I shouldn't be discovered here..."

"Ah! It's Qin Tian!!!"

!!!

"Void Enticement Enticement" X10086

After leaping consecutively an unknown number of times, there were finally no figures around him.

Not far away, an ancient Acacia Tree swayed with the wind.

"There shouldn't be anyone here, right?"

Looking around, Qin Tian felt at ease.

He leaned against the tree, his eyes slowly closing... Having fought and achieved a Breakthrough in succession, Qin Tian's mind was somewhat weary, and he involuntarily fell into a deep sleep... At the same time, a white-clothed figure quietly appeared. She sat by Qin Tian's side. Quietly, gently, without a word...

She sat by Qin Tian's side.

Quietly, gently, without a word... After a long time.

Qin Tian opened his eyes in a daze.

He was slightly stunned.

Why... did I sleep so soundly? I didn't even sense a single movement...

"Awake?"

A soft voice sounded by his ear.

Qin Tian's body trembled.

This voice was incredibly familiar.

"Revered Master...!?"

Qin Tian abruptly looked up and scanned his surroundings.

Finally, under the shade of the Acacia Tree, he saw the figure he had been longing for.

"You're back...!"

"Mhm."

Yun Xi gave a light hum, her lips pursed, "You broke through?"

Qin Tian hurriedly stood up, his spiritual power surging to dispel his fatigue, "Revered Master, look."

The seven emotions seed manifested, surrounded by seven streaks of rainbow Immortal Qi.

It radiated a mysterious immortal light.

Yun Xi stared blankly for a moment, "Mhm, not bad."

Revered Master didn't seem as happy as he had imagined?

In his daze, Qin Tian felt a sense of doubt.

"Tian'er, once you break through to the Reflection Realm and can stand on your own, it will be time for your Revered Master to leave..."

Buzz—

Qin Tian's ears rang.

"Revered Master, where are you going?"

Yun Xi smiled, "Naturally, to find a way to break through."

"As a Revered Master, I can't let my Disciple surpass me."

Qin Tian breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, it was just for a Breakthrough.

"Revered Master, if there are any Heaven And Earth Treasures you lack, just tell me."

"I have all sorts of treasures here!"

Yun Xi smiled faintly, "Those treasures of yours from the restricted zones are of no use to me."

"Let's not talk about that."

"Your mother is back too."

Qin Tian's eyes lit up.

"However, in the Imperial City, you cannot acknowledge each other."

"Mhm, I understand."

Qin Tian looked up, "Revered Master, actually there is one more thing I want to ask Mother, but I don't know how to bring it up..."

"What is it?"

"During these days in the Imperial City, I heard that back then, the Snow Clan Saintess—my mother—was carrying a stillborn fetus, yet here I am, alive and well..." Qin Tian said to himself.

Upon hearing the words 'stillborn fetus', Yun Xi's breathing hitched slightly.

"I know about this matter; you don't need to ask your mother."

"Revered Master knows?"

Yun Xi nodded, "Back then, your mother and I went to the Qin Family ancestral land together to find a Great Life Medicine for you."

"Furthermore, you were not a stillborn; your life aura was simply extremely weak."

"The rumor of a stillborn was intentionally spread."

Hearing this, Qin Tian breathed a sigh of relief.

Yun Xi would never hide things from him.

And there was no reason to hide it... "So that's how it was..."

"I thought it was related to that Eternal Foreign Realm heaven and earth sacred fetus or something."

Yun Xi smiled, "Are you afraid of being a Foreign Realm Being?"

Qin Tian nodded.

"There's no need for such worry; that heaven and earth sacred fetus is not in you."

"If Revered Master says so, then I'm relieved."

Yun Xi waved her hand.

"Let's go, Revered Master will take you to the Xue Clan to see your mother."

Qin Tian flickered to her side, "I heard Mother is no longer serving as the Snow Clan Saintess?"

"Yes, she came back specifically for this matter." Yun Xi nodded, "The successor of the Xue Clan is Xue Yi; her talent is extremely high, you should already be familiar with her."

Yun Xi paused.

"The Qin Family and the Xue Clan have had a marriage contract since ancient times; if nothing goes wrong, she should be your future Dao Companion."

Qin Tian couldn't help but laugh, "On the surface, I'm not a member of the Qin Family, so it wouldn't be my turn anyway."

"Acknowledging your ancestors is only a matter of time." Yun Xi said indifferently, "Moreover, Xue Yi is one in ten thousand in both talent and appearance; she is a perfect match for you."

Qin Tian: ..."Revered Master, you can't make jokes about such things!"

Yun Xi's lips pursed slightly, "What, you don't like her?"

Qin Tian thought for a moment and said in a joking tone, "Actually..."

"I prefer someone like Revered Master..."

Yun Xi's breathing hitched, and her steps halted in mid-air.

Her heart began to race uncontrollably.

Spiritual power surged.

Yun Xi quickly activated her dao seed to completely suppress her emotions.

Everything happened in an instant, and Qin Tian did not notice anything.

"Tian'er, having not seen you for just a short while, you now dare to tease your Revered Master?"

Qin Tian's heart skipped a beat.

"Revered Master... that... I was just joking..."

Yun Xi raised her hand and instantly restrained Qin Tian.

"Revered Master... what are you doing?"

Qin Tian's breathing became rapid.

Yun Xi's lips curled up.

Thump!

She flicked her jade finger.

Qin Tian felt a slight sting on his forehead.

Then, Yun Xi gently tilted Qin Tian's chin up... Qin Tian's breathing stalled, and his heart rate suddenly accelerated... Revered Master, what is she going to do...? Could it be... Yun Xi smiled, "What are you so nervous about?"

As her voice fell, a wisp of white misty Spirit Medicine drifted from Yun Xi's fingertip and was gently applied to Qin Tian's neck.

There.

The golden mark originally left by You Ruoli vanished instantly without a trace...

Yun Xi looked at it again and again.

Until not a single trace remained, she finally nodded in satisfaction.

"Now, this looks much better..."

...
