168: Chapter 168 The Jockey's Ancestor's Demise?

"Fairy, I'm sorry!"

Ji Taichang scrambled out of bed, decisively following his heart.

"Mas... Revered Master, I will teach you how to appease her anger!"

Yun Qiyao immediately spoke via voice transmission.

Under Yun Qiyao's guidance, Ji Taichang rubbed his hands together and said to the white-clothed Fairy, "It happened like this: our Sect's ancestor once had a fated encounter with a mysterious and powerful Immortal Revered Master. That Immortal Revered Master left a map for the ancestor, saying that if the Sect ever flourished in the future, we could come to this place and take this Blessed Land as our Sect's territory. Thus, we set out from the Land of a Hundred Dynasties and traveled a long distance to get here..."

Upon hearing this, the white-clothed Fairy's pupils suddenly constricted. A ripple of emotion appeared on her exquisite face, which was usually as calm as a deep well.

"What dealings did your ancestor have with that Immortal Revered Master? Tell me everything in detail!"

The white-clothed Fairy's tone grew a bit more urgent, making it difficult for her to maintain her composure!

"I don't know."

Ji Taichang gave a bitter smile. "The ancestor was extremely secretive about the Immortal Revered Master's identity and left no records. Moreover, so many years have passed that we simply do not know..."

Hearing this, a look of disappointment immediately surfaced in the white-clothed Fairy's eyes.

"Since that Immortal Revered Master promised this Secret Realm to your Sect, I will not pursue your offense further."

"You may use this Secret Realm, but this Immortal Cave is my residence. From now on, without my permission, you are not allowed to approach it!"

As the white-clothed Fairy's cold voice fell,

Ji Taichang felt his vision blur, and he was instantly moved from the Immortal Cave into the Secret Realm.

"Space Law!"

Ji Taichang's heart skipped a beat. He hadn't expected the white-clothed Fairy to actually wield the mysterious and powerful force of Space Law!

It was no wonder the white-clothed Fairy had rushed back so soon after he entered the Secret Realm and the Immortal Cave. She likely left a Spatial Brand within them, allowing her to traverse the Void Realm and arrive instantly.

"Xiao Yao, do you have some connection with this Fairy? A single sentence actually made her hand over the Secret Realm."

"This Secret Realm was left by you, and she seems quite concerned about news of you..."

Ji Taichang couldn't help but ask Yun Qiyao via voice transmission.

Yun Qiyao remained silent and did not speak.

The white-clothed Fairy was not tall, but her temperament was incredibly cold and lofty, like an Immortal walking the earth, giving Ji Taichang an immense sense of pressure.

Her face was breathtakingly beautiful, and a faint, ethereal fragrance wafted from her body.

The white-clothed Fairy's beautiful eyes were deep and calm. She looked into the distance at the people of the Qingyun Sect who were busily working in the Secret Realm. When her gaze swept over Lan Huaying, a flash of surprise couldn't help but flicker through her eyes.

"Boy, tell me about your Qingyun Sect. How did you get acquainted with a Disciple of the Shuiyue Holy Land?"

Ji Taichang did not dare to be negligent and honestly recounted the entire sequence of events.

Hearing that the Qingyun Sect was just an ordinary Sect from the Land of a Hundred Dynasties, the surprise in her eyes grew even stronger.

The white-clothed Fairy turned around and sized up Ji Taichang once more.

That deep and sharp gaze felt as if it could see through Ji Taichang inside and out, making him feel somewhat uncomfortable.

"To come from a remote and desolate place like the Land of a Hundred Dynasties yet possess such world-startling talent... you are quite good."

"Since you have a fated connection with that Immortal Revered Master, then you have a fated connection with me."

"Are you willing to become my Named Disciple?"

The white-clothed Fairy's voice was crisp and calm.

Inside the human emperor flag, Yun Qiyao's eyes widened. "You mustn't..."

"Yes, yes!"

Before Yun Qiyao could finish her sentence, Ji Taichang showed a look of joy and directly performed the formal bow of a Disciple to the white-clothed Fairy!

"Disciple Ji Taichang pays respects to Revered Master!!"

The white-clothed Fairy's expression softened slightly. She pointed a finger, and a snow-white Flying Sword appeared before Ji Taichang along with a Jade Slip.

"This is your apprenticeship gift."

"You are currently only my Named Disciple. This Jade Slip records a sword technique. You need to Cultivate it to Minor Achievement within one year. If you cannot even do that, you are not worthy of being my Disciple. Do you understand?"

Clearly.

The white-clothed Fairy was proud and aloof; if she were to take a Disciple, she would only take a top-tier Prodigy. Ordinary Geniuses could not enter her eyes!

This was a test for Ji Taichang!

"Thank you, Revered Master! Disciple guarantees the mission will be completed!"

Ji Taichang happily took the Jade Slip and the Flying Sword.

"My goodness, this Flying Sword is actually a High Grade Magic Treasure!"

"As expected of a Body Integration Stage powerhouse, she's so generous. I've really latched onto a powerful supporter now!!"

Ji Taichang was ecstatic.

"By the way, Revered Master, your Disciple doesn't know your esteemed name yet."

"Furthermore, your Disciple has been targeted by the Thousand-Faced Enchantress and the Twin Demoness of the Black Thorn Cult. I fear they may come knocking at any time. I hope Revered Master can resolve these powerful enemies for me."

The white-clothed Fairy's expression was calm and indifferent as she said faintly, "My name is... Nan Yin!"

"As for those two enchantresses from the Black Thorn Cult, find a way to deal with them yourself. Consider it a test for you."

With that,

her figure flashed and she vanished.

"Hey..."

Ji Taichang was dumbfounded. "I'm only at the third level of the Soul Transformation Stage, and you want me to deal with the Twin Demoness at the ninth level of the Void Refining Stage??"

"You could at least give me some life-saving trump cards, Revered Master? Revered Master??"

No matter how Ji Taichang shouted, the white-clothed Fairy did not respond.

She stood before the Immortal Cave, overlooking the entire Secret Realm. A look of extreme complexity and sorrow flashed in her eyes as she murmured to herself, "It's been a thousand years... Revered Master, who exactly was it that harmed you!?"

"I have searched the entire Eastern Desolate Region, yet I have only found a few barriers you left behind, with no sign of your tracks."

"Disciple... Disciple misses you so much..."

The usually cold and strong white-clothed Fairy now had reddened eyes, and two lines of clear tears rolled down her cheeks!

...

"What a sin!!"

Inside the human emperor flag,

Yun Qiyao covered her face with her hand, showing a look of helplessness and pain!

She had been forcibly coerced by this villain Ji Taichang and forced to become his servant.

But now Ji Taichang had become her own Disciple's Disciple...

What kind of mess was this!

It was simply... riding the Revered Master and destroying the ancestor!

"Should I just go out and reveal myself to Xiao Yin? That way I could escape Ji Taichang's poisonous hands."

A thought couldn't help but surface in Yun Qiyao's mind.

"No!"

But she quickly shook her head, immediately rejecting the idea.

"If I tell her about such a shameful thing, with Xiao Yin's personality, she would definitely kill Ji Taichang!"

"Although this boy Ji Taichang's personality is a bit wicked, he possesses three Supreme-grade talents and has the bearing of an Immortal. He might even be the Reincarnation of an Immortal from the Upper Realm!"

"If Xiao Yin attacks him, it might trigger some unspeakable variables!"

"Besides, it would be a pity for such a prodigious talent to die. That wench has been the Sect Head of the Shuiyue Holy Land for a thousand years now, and her power has increased greatly. She might even have touched the threshold of the Tribulation Transcendence Stage. I still need to use Ji Taichang's peerless talent to oppose her."

"Otherwise, even with Xiao Yin's help, I could never be that wench's match; it would just be throwing my life away!"

"And if Xiao Yin found out about my plight, she would certainly risk her life against that wench. But she is only at the Body Integration Stage; going there would be certain death!"

"...Endure!!"

Yun Qiyao took a deep breath, her eyes flickering as a plan formed in her mind.
