At his words, Feng Tianxiang's expression turned strange.
He did not understand why Su Changqing was asking about Xue Qinghe's age.
"His Highness should be sixteen this year."
After hearing his answer, Su Changqing immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
As he remembered it, according to the original plot, Qian Renxue was ten years older than Tang San. That meant he was now the same age as Tang San—the timeline was correct!
What he feared most was that his timeline came after Tang San's!
After all, he did not have the system that every transmigrator possessed. If he were younger than Tang San, he would basically have no chance of snatching those opportunities!
"Thank you, Patriarch."
Feng Tianxiang found Su Changqing somewhat strange, yet he could not pinpoint why.
He suppressed his doubts and did not continue asking.
"Mm. Rest early. The day after tomorrow, tell me which spirit beast you need for your first spirit ring."
Watching Feng Tianxiang leave, Su Changqing's mind began racing as he considered his first spirit ring and how he could later get ahead of Tang San and seize that hypocrite's opportunities.
Su Changqing leaned against the headboard, recalling Xiaomi's traits.
Xiaomi was still only in its initial form. To evolve into Mirai, and perhaps even its final form, it would need to grow stronger continuously. His first spirit ring had to come from a spirit beast with an extremely powerful Light Attribute.
Wait, light!
Su Changqing suddenly realized something!
Xue Qinghe was Qian Renxue, and her spirit had an ultimate Light Attribute as well. No wonder that woman was so interested in him!
With that thought, Su Changqing immediately wanted to leave Heaven Dou City.
After all, Qian Renxue could not exactly be considered a good person. He needed to be wary of her.
Fortunately, leaving should not be too difficult for him. His most urgent task now was to carefully consider his first spirit ring.
After sorting out his thoughts, all kinds of spirit beasts with Light Attributes began appearing in his mind.
The next day.
Early in the morning, Su Changqing boarded a carriage bound for the Star Dou Great Forest with Feng Tianxiang.
For this operation, both Spirit Douluo-level experts of the Feng clan had come out, along with five Spirit Saints.
Including Feng Tianxiang himself, who was already at rank eighty-nine.
Mobilizing so many experts for a Hundred-Year Spirit Ring was truly an exceptional treatment!
"Changqing, have you found a spirit beast you like?" Feng Tianxiang asked calmly inside the carriage.
"Yes."
Su Changqing said, "I considered several kinds and eventually settled on three: the Blazing Sun Heavenly Horse, the Radiant Giant Lizard, and the Flowing Light Illusion Butterfly."
Feng Tianxiang could not help frowning at that.
Other than the Flowing Light Illusion Butterfly, all three were extremely powerful spirit beasts. At four or five hundred years of cultivation, their combat power was enough to rival a thousand-year spirit beast!
While the Flowing Light Illusion Butterfly was not quite as powerful, it was an exceptionally rare creature. Without venturing deep into the Star Dou Great Forest, they would never encounter one!
Feng Tianxiang was not frowning because Su Changqing's request was troublesome. He merely wondered whether a Rabbit Spirit could withstand the power brought by such formidable spirit beasts.
"Changqing, although you possess Innate Full Soul Power, your spirit is ultimately just a rabbit. You may not be able to bear the power of the spirit beasts you mentioned. To be safe, how about choosing a Flowing Light Rabbit of around four hundred and twenty years for your first spirit ring?"
Hearing that answer, Su Changqing felt the urge to slap him!
He was the embodiment of light, the representative of the sun. How could he possibly fail to withstand it?
How could Mirai's power possibly be compared to that of a rabbit?
"Patriarch, please believe me. We must find one of the three spirit beasts I mentioned, preferably one around five hundred years old."
Su Changqing's gaze was incredibly resolute, making Feng Tianxiang feel an impulse to believe him!
Feng Tianxiang feared that Su Changqing was young and reckless.
After all, Xue Qinghe had personally designated him for special training. If he died from absorbing a spirit ring, Feng Tianxiang would have a difficult time explaining himself!
But on further thought, why would Xue Qinghe be so interested in a spirit that he considered weak?
Could it be that Su Changqing's spirit really was not so simple?
After pondering for a moment, Feng Tianxiang decided to take a gamble.
"Alright. We'll do as you say. We'll do our best to ensure your safety."
Seeing that he had agreed, Su Changqing immediately beamed. "Thank you, Patriarch!"
Much later, the group arrived at the Star Dou Great Forest.
Su Changqing stood in the center while the gathered experts tightly surrounded him.
This was the Star Dou Great Forest. No amount of caution was excessive!
The group gradually ventured deeper and, after an hour, finally discovered a Radiant Giant Lizard around five hundred years old!
"Patriarch, we found one! It's a Radiant Giant Lizard, and it's injured!" a Spirit Saint said.
Feng Tianxiang nodded. "Good. Capture it!"
The moment he spoke, the injured Radiant Giant Lizard was knocked unconscious by the Spirit Saint and placed before Su Changqing.
Su Changqing released his spirit, intending to end its life with one punch.
"Hm?"
"What is it, Changqing?"
Feng Tianxiang was curious when he saw him stop.
"Something seems to be approaching. It has a very powerful Light Attribute!"
The instant Su Changqing finished speaking, Feng Tianxiang and the others sensed it as well. However, what they sensed was not the Power of Light, but a spirit beast!
"Screech—"
In only a few seconds, a clear phoenix cry rang out. Then a phoenix with golden wings appeared in everyone's sight!
"This is... a Rainbow Plume Phoenix over five hundred years old! A top-tier phoenix subspecies!"
Feng Tianxiang immediately grew excited.
This was the first time in his life he had seen such a powerful and rare spirit beast!
"It seems that Radiant Giant Lizard was its food."
Su Changqing looked at it and said calmly, "Patriarch, I've changed my mind. I want it to be my first spirit ring!"
"Such a rare spirit beast delivered itself right to us. This is your fortune!"
As he spoke, Feng Tianxiang had already released his eight spirit rings.
The Rainbow Plume Phoenix reacted quickly. Upon sensing Feng Tianxiang's strength, it immediately turned and fled.
Without hesitation, Su Changqing leaped up, transforming into a streak of Golden Light as he shot several meters away.
"Changqing!!!"
Feng Tianxiang immediately panicked!
That was a Rainbow Plume Phoenix! With only a hundred years of cultivation, it could instantly kill a Soul Elder!
Yet in the next moment, every one of them froze in place!
"Stop for me!!!"
Su Changqing shouted sharply. The Power of Light around him erupted to its utmost limit, as though a child of light had descended into the world!
"Screech—"
The fleeing Rainbow Plume Phoenix suddenly stiffened. Its bloodline churned within its body, as though it had been suppressed by something.
A few seconds later, it crashed directly to the ground!
Feng Tianxiang and the others saw the entire scene, all of them staring with their mouths agape!
"Bloodline suppression? This child's spirit..."
Only then did Feng Tianxiang understand why Xue Qinghe was so interested in Su Changqing!
Even the Light Attribute of a Rainbow Plume Phoenix could be suppressed. One could only imagine how monstrously powerful his spirit was!
