Pfft

As the Soaring Dragon Sword returned to Su Bai's body, Crown Prince Xiao Yue collapsed to the ground, Life Qi.

"So strong! What a terrifying Human Race Sword Cultivator!"

The Eight-Foot Madam, who witnessed Su Bai's killing move in the entire process, trembled all over, unable to believe that this was Assassin she had hired for 20,000 Spirit Stone.

Suddenly, as if sensing something, she looked towards the direction of the Moon Wolf Tribe Settlement.

"This aura... the Old Wolf Emperor has emerged from seclusion!" Eight-Foot Madam exclaimed in surprise.

Hearing this from afar, Su Bai, whose Spiritual Power was nearly exhausted, gave up his last chance to catch up.

Su Bai first used [Shadow Dust] to conceal his surroundings, then directly activated [Thousand Mile Lightning Escape].

Buzz.

The next moment, Su Bai appeared outside Demon Star City.

Su Bai turned around and looked at the city wall of Demon Star City not far away, then mounted his Sword Flight and flew towards Heavenly Star City without looking back.

No one knew what the enraged Old Wolf Emperor, Demon General Level, would do.

In the ruins of the Blood Feast Palace.

A terrifying aura of a Demon General descended.

Then, a tall, white-haired figure appeared on the ruins.

This person is none other than the current Clan Chief of the Moon Wolf Tribe, Wolf Emperor Cang Yue!

Cang Yue bent down and closed Crown Prince Xiao Yue's eyes.

He looked around and frowned, saying, "Blood Feast Palace?" His gaze fell on Yu Zhao.

"Your Excellency, please forgive me." The Eight-Foot Madam knelt on the ground.

Cang Yue looked at the Yu Zhao, who appeared to be just over two hundred years old, and sighed softly.

How could he not have noticed Howling Moon's intentions?

However, knowing his own lifespan was limited, he acquiesced to Howling Moon's intentions.

When a person dies, it's like a lamp going out. As long as the Moon Wolf Tribe can continue its lineage, what does it matter if everything is handed over to Howling Moon?

Cang Yue waved her hand, setting up a barrier to prevent outsiders from probing.

You are innocent.

"I've wronged you," Cang Yue said slowly.

Upon hearing this, Eight-Foot Madam breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Sensing that Howling Moon was in danger, I ended my Secret Method and emerged from seclusion."

He could have Lifespan another thirty years.

"Because the Secret Method ended prematurely, there are now only ten years left."

"Who in the clan can take over Howling Moon's position within ten years?" Cang Yue was quite melancholy. He felt that he would have to choose a clansman from the Collateral Line to succeed him as the Main Vein.

Eight-Foot Madam's heart stirred. "Your Majesty, Yinyue has awakened his Bloodline, and the Bloodline Concentration is even higher than that of Crown Prince Xiao Yue back then!"

"Is what you say true?" Cang Yue asked with slight doubt.

Yinyue's youngest son lost most of his innate essence at birth, making it difficult for him to even awaken his Bloodline.

In just three years, not only has he awakened his Bloodline, but its Bloodline Concentration is even higher than Howling Moon's?

"Your Excellency, why don't you go back and see Yinyue yourself? Then you'll understand everything!"

Upon hearing this, Cang Yue vanished from the ruins of the Blood Feast Palace.

Before long, he returned to the Moon Wolf Tribe Settlement, and with his Demon Sense activated, he quickly located Yinyue's position.

Call out!

Cang Yue appeared before Yinyue. "Who are you?" Yinyue was completely unfamiliar with the white-haired old man who appeared before her.

Not long after Yinyue was born, Cang Yue went into seclusion to practice a life-extending Secret Method, so it's normal that Yinyue didn't recognize him.

"I am your father, Wolf Emperor Cang Yue," Cang Yue said with a smile.

"You are not my father! I have my own godfather, the Alchemist Lu Jiu!" Yinyue immediately said.

Godfather? Alchemist Lu Jiu?

Cang Yue had some doubts, but it wasn't a big deal. He reached out, and Yinyue uncontrollably fell into his hand.

As the Demon Essence surged in, Cang Yue quickly sensed the boiling Moon Wolf Tribe Bloodline within Yinyue's body.

"Indeed, the concentration is extremely high, not much different from mine. There is hope for Demon General in the future!" Cang Yue looked at Yinyue with great joy.

"But we only have ten years..."

"Within ten years, I will at least raise you to the Condensing Origin Stage." Cang Yue stared intently at Yinyue.

When Eight-Foot Madam hurriedly returned to the Moon Wolf Tribe Settlement, she saw Cang Yue and Yinyue playing hide-and-seek in the courtyard, a peaceful scene unfolding.

After all, they were father and son. After feeling Cang Yue's selfless affection for him, Yinyue quickly accepted Cang Yue.

Upon seeing this, Eight-Foot Madam breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"You did a good job." Cang Yue appeared before her, carrying Yinyue.

"Where is the Alchemist Lu Jiu? I need to thank him in person," Cang Yue said.

Eight-Foot Madam, recalling the farewell note Su Bai had left in the Alchemy Room, said, "Alchemist Lu Jiu has already left Demon Star City. After all, he is Human Race, and it is not appropriate for him to stay in Demon Star City for long."

"I gained his trust by promising to make Yinyue his godfather, which is why I allowed him to stay in the Moon Wolf Tribe Settlement for so long."

In reality, Su Bai left the Moon Wolf Tribe Settlement by saying that he had hired Azure Fish Hall assassin to kill Howling Moon, and that he was temporarily leaving to avoid being discovered as the culprit. He left a message with Eight-Foot Madam and departed.

Cang Yue had no doubts. "You did well. It's a pity that this Alchemist's alchemy skills are so superb. If he were here, Yinyue's chances of breaking through to the Condensing Origin Stage within ten years would be even greater."

Within ten years? Condensing Origin Stage?

It seems the old man has finally acknowledged Yinyue and decided to fully cultivate Yinyue. Eight-Foot Madam was delighted, but her expression remained unchanged.

Eight-Foot Madam took out a Storage Bag: "This is a batch of Golden Marrow Pill left behind by Alchemist Lu Jiu before he left. It'll be enough for Yinyue to consume for a long time."

Upon hearing this, Yinyue snatched the Storage Bag, took out a Spirit Pills bottle, poured out a Golden Marrow Pill, and put it into her mouth.

"Mother, this medicine is so potent..."

As the medicinal power of the Golden Marrow Pill dissipated, Yinyue's face flushed red and then paled. She closed her eyes and began to fully Refinement the medicinal power.

The Golden Marrow Pill is Spirit Pills taken by Cultivator in the late Qi Refining Stage, and its medicinal power is naturally much stronger than that of the Yellow Dragon Pill.

The Golden Marrow Pill in this Storage Bag are enough for Yinyue to cultivate for a long time.

"I only have ten years left. In these ten years, I will dedicate myself to nurturing Yinyue."

"Did you understand?" Cang Yue patted Yinyue's little head.

"Understood!" Yinyue replied casually, unaware of the special training he would face that would enable him to advance to the Condensing Origin Stage within ten years.

On the other side.

After flying on his Sword Flight for several more hours, Su Bai's Spiritual Qi was almost completely depleted. He found a place to land, casually dug a hidden cave on the cliff, and went inside to recover his Spiritual Power.

Three days and three nights later, Su Bai's Spiritual Power had recovered to about 70-80%, and he finally broke through the cave's concealment and once again flew out on his Sword Flight.

"It's in my account." As Su Bai rode his Sword Flight, the Azure Fish Talisman on his chest felt slightly warm. Su Bai Su Bai sensed that the Jade Talisman was indicating that 40,000 Spirit Stone had been deposited into his account.

Thus, the Azure Fish Talisman accumulated 75,000 Spirit Stone.

Along with the arrival of Spirit Stone, there was another special notification message.

It turns out that Crown Prince Xiao Yue made a breakthrough during the mission, advancing from the Late Core Formation Stage to the Peak Core Formation Stage. Because of this change in his realm and strength, Su Bai could have refused the mission.

With the mission objectives undergoing significant changes in strength, Azure Fish Hall also has the authority to increase Mission Reward.

However, Su Bai has already completed his mission, so this matter can be dropped.

If there is a next time, and the target breaks through a realm within the mission deadline, Su Bai can simply apply to refuse the mission again.

"Now that the Old Wolf Emperor has emerged from seclusion, my identity as Alchemist certainly cannot continue. I can only visit you and your son again after the Old Wolf Emperor dies..." Su Bai thought to himself.
