Qing Tan's Whereabouts

Facing the curious gazes of the crowd, the Master of Darkness lazily said:

"You lot are still so useless, you can't even handle the leaked Demonic Qi. Aren't those old monsters in your clan willing to take action?"

"... They are all in seclusion, undergoing Life-and-Death Retreat."

Yuan Qian replied somewhat awkwardly, which wasn't entirely untrue. If those old monsters joined forces, the matter of the Demon Suppressing Prison could definitely be resolved. However, for some reason, those old monsters hesitated and refused to take action. He couldn't handle the Demonic Qi alone, yet he hadn't considered seeking help from other Reincarnation Realm powerhouse.

Thinking about it again, it still seemed a bit strange, and Yuan Qian fell into deep thought once more.

'Could it be that I've been hit by a special technique of the Otherworldly Demons?'

Upon hearing this, the Master of Darkness shook his head, no longer paying attention, and instead looked at Ying Huanhuan, saying with delight.

"Junior Sister!"

However, she was Ying Huanhuan a questioning look from Ying Huanhuan, Darkness Lord.

"Haven't your memories awakened yet?"

"What memories?" Ying Huanhuan was now completely puzzled. Why did all the Eight Ancient Masters her?

"You didn't tell her?" The Master of Darkness didn't answer directly, but turned to ask Xiao Ming.

I think Ying Huanhuan probably wants to be herself more.

Xiao Ming replied softly. At first, he didn't mind Ying Huanhuan regaining her memories, since the two had no relationship. So he directly activated her Reincarnation Seal to obtain the Ice Ancestor Symbol.

However, now that Ying Huanhuan his disciple for over a year, Xiao Ming has developed feelings for her. He feels that Ying Huanhuan's current personality is quite good, so whether she awakens her powers or not is no longer important.

If Ying Huanhuan's personality is more mature.

Upon hearing this, the Master of Darkness recalled his junior sister's icy personality from his previous life, and then looked at Ying Huanhuan before him, and felt a certain degree of agreement.

"What you say makes sense. Now that you're here, Junior Sister doesn't need to shoulder the heavy responsibility of saving the world. That's good."

"No, Master, what are you talking about?" Ying Huanhuan was completely bewildered.

"Now that things have come to this, I won't hide it from you anymore. You are actually the reincarnation of the Ice Lord, one of the Eight Ancient Masters." Xiao Ming turned to look at Ying Huanhuan, sighed, and replied softly.

"What!" Ying Huanhuan's face was filled with astonishment, and Mu Lingshan and Qing Tan were also shocked. Ying Huanhuan had such a background!?

Yuan Qian was secretly astonished. He hadn't expected this little girl to have such an amazing identity. She was actually the Ice Lord, the Number One Under the Symbol Ancestor. They hadn't even noticed her before.

"Don't worry, if you don't want to awaken your memories, I can help you seal them. As you gain more strength and experience, these memories will have a much smaller impact on you."

Seeing the obvious panic on Ying Huanhuan's face, Xiao Ming patted her head and comforted her.

Feeling the warmth above her head, Ying Huanhuan instinctively threw herself into Xiao Ming, her voice somewhat muffled.

"Can't I just not awaken my memories? I don't want to be some Ice Lord, I just want to be Ying Huanhuan."

"Well, it's not impossible, but your cultivation memories from your previous life would be beneficial to you. If you awaken those memories now, with my help, you can quickly become a Peak Reincarnation Realm expert. Aren't you tempted?" Xiao Ming patted Ying Huanhuan's shoulder and asked.

Ying Huanhuan lifted her head from Xiao Ming and met his gaze, her eyes filled with a stubbornness.

"I wouldn't be tempted!"

"Alright, as you wish."

Even if his memories are sealed, he can still awaken his power; it just requires some time and effort. Ying Huanhuan also needs more time to master her power, but he can only indulge his disciple.

Yuan Qian, listening from the side, swallowed hard. A senior is indeed a senior; he can even seal the memories of Reincarnator, and he is the most powerful Ice Lord besides the Symbol Ancestor.

With combat power at this level, they wouldn't even bother to block it; if they discovered it, they'd practically want the enemy to awaken immediately.

"Thank you, Master!"

Ying Huanhuan that Xiao Ming agreed so readily, Xiao Ming smiled happily and kissed him on the cheek, causing Mu Lingshan, who was standing next to her, to exclaim in surprise.

"Oh, so you're using this as an excuse to kiss your older brother!"

"This is my master, so what if I kiss him!" Ying Huanhuan became lively again after receiving Xiao Ming's assurance, and made a face at Mu Lingshan.

"That big brother is still my big brother, I want to kiss him too!" Mu Lingshan said, about to pounce on him, making Qing Tan, who was standing next to her, blush.

"Stop fooling around!" Xiao Ming grabbed Mu Lingshan, who was lunging at him, and flicked her forehead with his finger.

Seeing Mu Lingshan covering her forehead with tears in her eyes and becoming much more obedient, Xiao Ming put her down and also shooed Ying Huanhuan away.

The Master of Darkness smiled as he watched Ying Huanhuan playfully bickering. His junior sister was the most favored of the Eight Ancient Masters, but they had never seen such a smile on her face in their previous lives.

"Ahem, Senior Xiao? The matter has been resolved. If there's anything you need, please feel free to ask. If my Dragon Clan can meet your needs, we will certainly not be stingy."

Seeing that Xiao Ming and the others had finished their conversation, Yuan Qian jumped out again.

"Give me some of the medicinal herbs that your Dragon Clan collects." Xiao Ming glanced at the other party but did not refuse. The Dragon Clan has always been very wealthy, and the Tian Xuan Continent is rich in resources. He couldn't say that the Dragon Clan didn't have Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that he would like.

"Alright, I'll arrange the manpower right away." Yuan Qian waved his hand, and an elder quickly left.

Suddenly, Xiao Ming looked at the Master of Darkness again.

What are your plans for the future?

"Plans?" The Master of Darkness pondered for a moment upon hearing this. "My power has not yet fully awakened. I'll find a place to wait until it's fully restored, and then I'll go find my Senior Sister and the others."

I have a place I recommend you go to.

"Where?" the Master of Darkness asked curiously.

"The Darkness Divine Hall of the Northern Xuan Region."

"The Hall of Darkness seems to be a legacy I left behind."

"That's right, the Darkness Divine Hall is now the overlord of the Northern Xuan Region. No one will bother you there to recover your strength. Oh, and take Qing Tan with you too." Xiao Ming waved his hand, leading Qing Tan to the Master of Darkness.

"This little girl's physique seems a bit special!" The Master of Darkness noticed Qing Tan's unusual nature; the latter seemed to be absorbing Yin Cold Qi at all times.

"Qing Tan possesses the Sha Demon Physique, and your inheritance is very suitable for her," Xiao Ming explained. It wasn't that he couldn't teach Qing Tan personally, but the inheritance of the Master of Darkness was indeed suitable for Qing Tan. Moreover, the Master of Darkness was only one realm lower than him and had her own unique understanding of cultivation, so her inheritance wouldn't be too bad.

"Indeed, it's very suitable." The Master of Darkness nodded, acknowledging his agreement.

Qing Tan timidly clutched Xiao Ming's sleeve, clearly somewhat unwilling.

"Don't worry, with your current strength, you won't be gone for long. I'll bring you back soon."
