Qian Renxue: I Think I Can Still Be Saved! Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Body! Teacher is a Fire Element Soul Master
In truth, ever since Qian Renxue had been reduced to a cripple, Bibi Dong's attitude toward her had changed imperceptibly.
At first, it was joy, but as the days dragged on.
Watching her disheveled and wretched appearance, for some reason, the shadow of another person would always surface in her mind.
Likewise falling from a genius into the dust, likewise lost and dejected.
As these two figures overlapped, coupled with the fact that she was, after all, her own daughter.
Various emotions intertwined.
It was like a hot pot, numbing and spicy, yet one could not stop reaching for more.
It made her involuntarily set some things aside, and involuntarily want to take a step forward.
"Inside this, there is also a portion of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast's body; send it to her as well."
Bibi Dong pondered for a moment, took out a ring-shaped storage Soul Tool, and handed it to the maid.
Hu Liena, standing to the side, kept her expression unchanged, but a monstrous wave surged in the depths of her heart.
She did not care how precious the body of a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast was.
She had never envied Qian Renxue's status as the Young Master, she did not envy her talent that topped the continent, and she did not even care about the status of Martial Soul Hall Saintess.
But what she could not endure, was that Qian Renxue had snatched away the love that had originally belonged to her alone.
She had no father or mother, growing up in an orphanage, and it was only after being spotted by Bibi Dong and taken as a disciple that she first experienced what it meant to be cared for, what a burning and sincere motherly love was!
And now, she watched helplessly as that love, which belonged exclusively to her, slipped away bit by bit, tilting toward someone else.
This feeling was like taking her life; it was agonizing and unsettling.
Inside the bedroom.
Qian Renxue clutched the storage Soul Tool ring sent by the maid, a warm current surging in her heart.
But in an instant, it turned into doubt and unease.
She had seen all of Bibi Dong's changes over these years.
Yet the impressions left behind previously were simply too profound.
With the loss of her cultivation, her heart had become more sensitive and fragile than ever before, like a wounded hedgehog.
She both craved that sliver of warmth and feared that getting too close would leave her covered in wounds.
She hoped Bibi Dong truly cared for her, yet feared that this concern hid other motives.
She wanted to take a step forward, but dared not, so she could only shrink into her shell, struggling back and forth.
But regardless, Bibi Dong sending such a precious Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast body at this time at least proved that she was concerned about her at all times...
Compared to Qian Daoliu, the scales in her heart could not help but tilt.
"Hmm, have you collected everything? Then bring it all out."
Just then, Ling Xiao's voice rang out again, pulling her back to reality.
"Yes, Teacher, everything is prepared!"
Qian Renxue hurriedly took out a large pile of materials from her storage Soul Tool.
Even though Qian Renxue's status was extraordinary, and the bedroom was over a hundred square meters.
The various Soul Beast bodies, fruits containing soul power, minerals, and the like, piled together, still occupied nearly half the room.
The dense fluctuations of soul power almost condensed into substance, surging through the air.
Especially one of the rabbit legs, two or three meters long, the pressure it radiated, made Qian Renxue's calves tremble slightly.
"Not bad!"
Ling Xiao merely swept a glance over them, and the properties of these materials were already clear in his mind.
Then, he changed the subject and said:
"However, rather than using these materials to restore your soul power cultivation, they would be far more suitable for promoting a further evolution of your Martial Soul."
"Martial Soul... evolution?"
Qian Renxue widened her eyes.
"Is the Six-Winged Angel not the top-tier Martial Soul on the entire continent?"
This completely exceeded her understanding!
"It was in the past, but from this day forward, it will no longer be!"
There was a hint of arrogance and disdain in Ling Xiao's tone.
As his voice fell, a red crystal and a small blue herb flew out from the mountain of materials.
Qian Renxue was confused; these were just two items she had collected into her Soul Tool because she noticed they contained relatively powerful soul power.
Could there be something special about them?
"You are very lucky. This is a Volcanic Gold Crystal, formed deep within the Earth's crust, taking hundreds of millions of years to take shape."
"Its extremely refined gold-fire attribute can facilitate a Martial Soul to break and then stand."
"It is a pity that such a pearl was covered in dust!"
"And this Jade Bead Grass seedling can provide the life force required for your Martial Soul's evolution!"
As he spoke, a translucent soul body appeared in the room.
With golden hair tied up and a black robe adorned with gold threads and mysterious patterns, he looked exceptionally noble.
His long black hair and robe moved without any wind.
Even though he was just standing there quietly, he gave off a sense of being detached from the mundane world.
What made it even harder to look away was that indescribable temperament.
Even without seeing his face clearly, one could be certain that this person must be incredibly handsome!
Yet that "handsomeness" was not merely skin-deep; it was a bearing that radiated from his very bones.
Sharp, composed, and carrying a hint of cynical nonchalance!
Qian Renxue couldn't help but stare in a daze for a moment before she realized her face was flushing red, and she hurriedly bowed in salute:
"Greetings, Teacher!"
Ling Xiao nodded slightly:
"This time, I shall first assist you in advancing your Martial Soul; next time, I will help you restore your cultivation. How about that?"
"Everything shall be as Teacher arranges!"
Qian Renxue naturally had no reason to refuse.
Although she was eager to restore her cultivation, the opportunity for a Martial Soul evolution was once in a millennium.
Furthermore, after the Martial Soul evolved, her cultivation speed would inevitably reach a higher level; she knew that sharpening the axe would not delay the woodcutting, and she naturally understood the priorities.
"Good, then stand aside and watch as your teacher performs!"
Ling Xiao waved a hand at Qian Renxue and then raised his palm.
A snow-white flame appeared in his palm.
It looked cold and gentle.
Yet, the moment it appeared, the temperature in the room soared violently.
What kind of flame was this?
Qian Renxue was forced to take another half-step back by the terrifying high temperature.
She instinctively raised her hand to shield her face, her palms feeling scorched even from several meters away.
Her Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul also contained fire attributes, but compared to this little flame, the Angel Flame was simply a firefly vying for brilliance with the bright moon!
Moreover, what was bizarre was that not only was the temperature absurdly high, but the flickering heart of the flame also exuded a chill that pierced straight into the soul!
It was too eerie!
"Teacher... could he be a Fire Element Soul Master?"
Looking at the snow-white flame, Qian Renxue couldn't help but wonder.
It was only then, that she suddenly remembered something extremely embarrassing—
She had already taken him as her master.
But until now, she actually didn't even know this mysterious teacher's name!
She had been so focused on recovering her cultivation that she hadn't even asked about something so important!
The thought made her toes curl with embarrassment, wishing she could dig a hole in the ground and disappear.
Meanwhile, Ling Xiao was lost in his own thoughts and hadn't remembered this detail either.
And so, this awkward situation came to be.
"Shameful, I've brought shame upon myself!"
"Qian Renxue, you're truly an idiot, how could you overlook something like this?"
She berated herself fiercely in her mind, "No, I think there's still a chance, I need to think of a way, ask indirectly."
"Otherwise, what if teacher discovers it himself one day..."
Her reputation in this life would be ruined!
The thought of being exposed one day, and facing each other awkwardly, made her even more flustered.
Ling Xiao had no idea what Qian Renxue was thinking in her head, nor did he notice her darting eyes.
His entire attention was on the materials before him.
With a wave of his hand, the soul beast bodies, ores, and fruits full of life force lined up, and were fed into the snow-white flame like an assembly line.
Each material was first intensely refined by the high temperature on the flame's surface, impurities turning into wisps of smoke and dissipating, then it was secondarily extracted by the extreme cold power deep within the flame's core, leaving behind only a wisp of the purest essence!
