"That is natural. Whether it is in alchemy or cultivation, you might not be the most outstanding in the Fighting Qi Continent, but you are the most qualified teacher. Before, it was just a case of meeting the wrong people. This time, I came to the Pill Tower for three things. First, to resurrect you. Second, to have my A Si become your disciple. As for the third…" Xiao Se revealed a mysterious smile.
"What is the third?" Yao Chen could not help but ask curiously.
"Hua Granny, come out. The Yao Chen brother you have been thinking of day and night is right before your eyes." Xiao Se took out the Soul-Nourishing storage ring.
The storage ring flashed with a dim light, and Hua Granny's Soul drifted out from within.
"Hua Yu." The pupils of Yao Chen and Xuan Yi contracted instantly.
Old lovers and rivals meeting; one could only imagine how spectacular the scene was at this moment.
The three of them looked at each other. Hua Granny gazed at Yao Chen with deep affection, her eyes brimming with tears. Yao Chen's face was filled with complex emotions; he had not expected to see Hua Yu again in this lifetime, and in such a state.
Xuan Yi looked at Yao Chen, then at Hua Granny, biting her red lips tightly with her white teeth. While feeling pity in her heart that Hua Yu had become a Soul entity, she could not help but be filled with jealousy. Her ample chest rose and fell slightly, outlining a breathtaking curve.
Xiao Se explained: "A year ago, when I first came to the Central Plains, I had placed Yun'er and her child, as well as Nalan Yanran, in the Flower Sect. By chance, I encountered Hua Granny, who was nearing the end of her life. Hua Granny passed her lifelong Fighting Qi to Yun'er. Fortunately, I arrived in time and gave her a Soul Poppy Fruit to preserve her Soul. Now, she is a Soul entity just like you. Later, I will refine a body for each of you, and you will be completely resurrected."
"How about it, Yao Chen? I'm quite decent, right? I also prepared a Soul Poppy Fruit for you. Here, take it."
While speaking, Xiao Se tossed the Soul Poppy Fruit over.
Yao Chen took the Soul Poppy Fruit, but there was not a hint of joy on his face. His old face flushed red, and he inwardly groaned, because Xuan Yi had already started to secretly compete with Hua Yu.
"Ahem." Yao Chen coughed a few times and changed the subject: "That, Xiao Se, thanks. I will accept A Si as a disciple. I will do my utmost for the rest of my life to teach him and help him succeed."
"Then I will thank you on behalf of A Si." Xiao Se smiled faintly, took A Si from Yun'er's arms, placed him on the ground, and let him stand up. "A Si, from now on, this SeniorYao Chen is your teacher. You must respect him just as you respect Daddy. Come on. Hurry over and call him Teacher."
Although A Si did not know what a teacher was, since his Daddy told him to call him that, he would just do it. Immediately, he took his short little legs and stumbled towards Yao Chen, walking while shouting: "Hello, Teacher."
"Hehe, good boy, A Si." Yao Chen half-squatted down, gently stroking A Si's little head. He was clearly very happy. This little fellow, who was like a blank sheet of paper, was truly endearing.
A moment later, A Si returned to Yun'er's arms. Xiao Se said: "Yao Chen, then wait until A Si is three years old and begins to CultivateDou Zhi Qi; I will then send him to your side for instruction. Of course, if you could go to the Jia Ma Empire's Sea Alliance and teach him directly, that would be even better."
"You brat, you really aren't one to suffer a loss. Fine, anyway, the Starfall Pavilion has already joined the Sea Alliance. When A Si is three, I will go over and just retire there while I'm at it." Yao Chen laughed.
Xiao Se nodded and took two corpses out of his storage ring. One was that of the Dou Zun Hua Jin, who had attempted to harm Yun'er, and the other was that of the Hun Clan Dou Sheng Soul Scars, who had been killed by Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun.
"This is…" Yao Chen and Hua Yu exclaimed simultaneously.
"The female corpse is a Dou Zun from the Flower Sect named Hua Jin. She summoned a Hall of Souls Semi-Saint with the intention of harming my wife, so I dealt with her while I was at it. The male corpse is from a Hun Clan Dou Sheng. His cultivation during his lifetime was at the Peak of a Two-Star Dou Sheng. I encountered him on the way to the Ancient Clan last time, and I summoned Senior Dragon Emperor to kill him." Xiao Se said nonchalantly.
"This is too valuable." Yao Chen was deeply moved. Originally, he would have been satisfied with a Dou Zun body, but he had not expected to be given a Dou Sheng body, and a complete one at that. In the past, this was something he had not even dared to imagine.
"Yao Chen, no matter what, you are A Si's teacher; this is nothing. You should refine the Soul Poppy Fruit first, and I will come to refine your bodies later."
While speaking, Xiao Se took Bibi Dong and the others back to his residence.
First, he arranged rooms for Yun'er and her child, as well as Nalan Yanran. Then, he brought Bibi Dong to the secret cultivation chamber, used the strange fire to transform the mottled Fighting Qi within her body, and incidentally performed as a secret chamber Douluo. Finally, he gave her the Heaven RankAdvanced dark attribute Cultivation Technique from the Xiao Clan's collection, as well as the four Souls of Soul Scars, the Hun Clan Semi-Saint, Hua Jin, and the Demon Flower Evil Monarch—one Dou Sheng, one Semi-Saint, and two Dou Zuns—for her to devour and increase her cultivation.
Once refined, if there were no accidents, Bibi Dong would be able to advance to Dou Sheng upon leaving seclusion.
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and three months went by.
In the first month, Xiao Se refined bodies for Yao Chen and Hua Granny. Because he used Dou Sheng bodies, Yao Chen's cultivation skipped the Semi-Saint stage and Advanced directly to One-Star Dou Sheng, becoming a true Medicine Saint; Hua Granny's cultivation was restored to her original Peak Dou Zun level.
From then on, Xuan Yi and Hua Yu pestered Yao Chen every day, competing for his favor. Yao Chen was in pain yet happy. Several times, he ran to Xiao Se to complain, but Xiao Se just laughed it off.
For a period of time afterwards, Yun'er also went into seclusion. She needed to refine the Fighting Qi that Hua Granny had left in her body, while A Si was looked after by Nalan Yanran. Xiao Xue also went into seclusion. Back in the Heavenly Tomb, she was only a hair's breadth away from breaking through to Two-Star Dou Sheng; now that she felt the opportunity, she went to break through.
In the end, only Xiao Se and Long Kui remained. The two of them simply studied the Dou Techniques and secret arts collected by the Xiao Clan. And incidentally, they studied the art of making babies.
Occasionally, they would help Nalan Yanran take care of A Si and guide Nalan Yanran's Cultivation.
It is worth mentioning that Cao Ying, for some reason, also began to frequently visit Xiao Se's residence. Her goal was to beg Xiao Se to accept her as a disciple. Xiao Se ignored her, so she turned to curry favor with A Si, using the excuse of helping Nalan Yanran.
Xiao Se was worried that A Si would be led astray by Cao Ying. In the end, having no other choice, he accepted her as a Named Disciple. Of course, there were conditions: she had to join the Sea Alliance and become a member of the Pill Hall.
Until the third month, when Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin returned from their training in the Beast Region, their cultivation had greatly increased. Relying on their outstanding Physique talents, both of them had Advanced to Semi-Saint. Incidentally, they also brought back two gifts that Xiao Se had not expected: Xiao Yan, and the Ten Thousand Beast Spirit Fire, ranked twenty-second on the strange fire ranking list.
Perhaps it was fated, or perhaps it was a coincidence, but after nearly three months, Yao Chen visited again. He brought back the Bone Chilling Flame that he had once released, and it happened to collide head-on with Xiao Yan.
Master and disciple met, and the air was thick with intense emotion.
