How Could a Mere Earth Immortal Be Your Master?

Not long after.

A group of people walked over from a distance. Everyone had fair skin. The men were handsome and the women were stunningly beautiful. The leader was a young man of about twenty-five years old. He was wearing White Shirt and had five white tails. His appearance was breathtaking, as if he had stepped out of Painting.

If such a face were in Jueyang City, countless women would drool over it.

He is none other than Bai Lin, the current lord of Lord of Fox Mountain and the Nine-Tailed Clan Chief.

However, Bai Lin's face was somewhat pale, as if he had been injured.

When Yelan saw a group of people approaching, she became extremely excited, especially upon seeing Bai Lin, and quickly ran to Bai Lin's side.

"Clan Chief Grandfather, Yelan misses you so much."

Although Bai Lin looks young, he is actually the oldest member of the entire Nine-Tails Clan.

Bai Lin coughed lightly twice, looking somewhat weak, but still gently patted Yelan's head, saying with concern, "You silly girl, why have you been out for so long? Don't you know we were all worried about you?"

He glanced again at the four tails behind Yelan, his eyes narrowing slightly, his expression somewhat solemn.

He had examined Yelan when he was born; his Bloodline was stronger than that of ordinary clansmen, and he might be able to grow to the Four-tailed in the Future, with a certain probability of growing to the Five-Tailed.

But that's all in the Future, not now.

He was born with the Three-Tails, and it took him nearly 300,000 years to grow to the Four-tailed. The process of growing from the Four-tailed to the Five-Tailed was even longer, taking nearly 5 million years.

Time is only one aspect; the key is that enhancing Bloodline power requires an extremely large amount of resources.

In comparison, the Yelan period is extremely short, which must be due to the use of countless resources.

Yelan felt a little embarrassed, mainly because she had completely lost contact after being captured. If it weren't for Su Chen, she might never have been able to come back in this lifetime.

Bai Lin didn't say much. He smiled and said, "It's alright, it's good that you're back. We can talk about the rest later."

Yelan suddenly looked behind him and asked curiously, "Clan Chief Grandfather, where are my parents? I don't see them."

Upon hearing this, Bai Lin immediately looked troubled, as if he was hesitant to speak.

Not only him, but the other members of the clan did the same.

Yelan also sensed that the situation was somewhat delicate. The smile on her face gradually faded, and she asked Bai Lin again, "Clan Chief Grandfather?"

Bai Lin sighed, "Your parents were seriously injured before and are currently recuperating at the Myriad Spirit Pool."

Yelan Lan trembled. If he could go to the Myriad Spirit Pool to recuperate, it must mean that his injuries were extremely serious, even life-threatening.

Bai Lin added again, "But don't worry, your life is safe, though there might be some lingering problems."

As Yelan fell, my anxiety eased slightly. As long as nothing went wrong, everything else was fine.

She was about to ask questions, but Bai Lin waved his hand to stop her. "I'll tell you about this later. Don't worry about your parents' lives. Let's deal with the immediate problem first."

Although Yelan was anxiously worried about her parents' safety, Bai Lin assured her that they were alright, so she could only calm herself down and then nervously looked at Su Chen.

Bai Lin and the others also looked at Su Chen, but many of them turned sharp the moment they saw Su Chen.

Over the years, the Nine-Tails Clan has suffered greatly at the hands of the Human Race. Many of their members who went out were captured by them, which has made them extremely cautious every time they leave the heart of the Hengduan Mountains, and some even dare not leave at all.

Bai Lin looked at Su Chen, his words filled with indifference. "Young friend, did you raise Yelan's Four-tailed?"

As he spoke, a chilling aura emanated from his body, exerting invisible pressure on Su Chen.

Su Chen remained completely unaffected, nodding calmly with his hands behind his back. "Yes."

Bai Lin asked again, "When Yelan was kidnapped that year, was it you who rescued him?"

Su Chen nodded again.

Bai Lin's sharp aura softened slightly, and he looked at Su Chen again. "My Nine-Tails Clan is not unreasonable. I'll give you two choices: either leave on your own, or complete my clan's experiment and become a true man of Yelan."

"But let me make this clear to you, the Trial within my clan are no simple matter; basically, anyone below the Profound Immortal has absolutely no chance of success."

This Trial was set up countless years ago. The Nine-Tails Clan reveres the strong, so naturally, they need to meet the requirement of being strong in order to convince them. This Trial is precisely to verify the other party's strength.

Therefore, it is extremely dangerous.

"Clan Chief, this is absolutely unacceptable!"

Suddenly, a Middle-aged Man with three yellow tails on his back stepped out. He looked at Su Chen with murderous intent and said with utter disgust.

"This is Human Race. How many of our people have been harmed by them? Letting him go is already an act of kindness. How can we allow him to participate in our clan's Trial?"

The speaker's eyes were filled with intense hatred, especially when he looked at Su Chen, his eyes were bloodshot.

Bai Lin felt somewhat helpless upon seeing this. Huang Shihuai's younger sister had been captured a few years ago and her whereabouts were still unknown, which was why he had an extreme aversion to Human Race.

This wasn't the first time something like this had happened, and the Nine-Tails Clan didn't have the strength to venture deep into Human Race territory to search, so they had no choice but to give up.

In Huang Shihuai's view, sparing Su Chen's life was already a testament to his remarkable composure.

If it weren't for the fact that he had helped Yelan, he would have killed Su Chen on the spot.

A mere Earth Immortal dares to dream of Yelan's man.

Even if Yelan were only a Three-Tails Four-tailed, Su Chen wouldn't be qualified to claim that.

"Yes, Clan Chief, let's drop the Trial and let him leave on his own."

"Letting him participate in the Trial would be tantamount to acknowledging him, wouldn't it? We can't possibly accept a mere Earth Immortal cultivator."

There have been increasing voices of opposition.

When Nine-Tails Clan Branches intermarry, they don't place particular emphasis on Cultivation Level; as long as they are roughly equal, they're considered close enough to be together.

However, if one wishes to marry into another family or become a disciple, the requirements for Cultivation Level are extremely high.

To participate in the Nine-Tails Clan's Trial, Su Chen had to satisfy them all before they would give him a chance. But now, who among them was satisfied with Su Chen?

Who would be willing to take Su Chen in?

There was nobody there.

Although they knew Su Chen was doomed, they were still unwilling to give Su Chen the opportunity to participate in the Trial.

Because Su Chen is simply not worthy!

Seeing the crowd's agitated state, Bai Lin was at a loss as to how to handle the situation. Yelan could only say, with a hint of pleading:

"Fellow clansmen, my Family Head is not like what you think, nor like other Human Race. When I was captured and sold in Jueyang City, a Human Race territory, it was my Family Head who bought me."

"My master treated me very well and never forced me to do anything. My Bloodline was also enhanced with his help."

"It's safe to say that without a master, Yelan is unlikely to return tonight. He may have already become someone's plaything in Jueyang City, living a life worse than death."

Upon hearing this, the members of the Nine-Tails Clan fell silent.
