"That's really great."
Xiao Jiu placed the regenerated soil at the boundary between the medicinal herb field and the black soil.
"Let's settle down here for now. Master, the most important thing is that it is a supreme treasure of the five elements. Now that you have the earth element divine object, you still need the water, fire, and wood elements so that the space can evolve."
Xiao Li felt like she had really struck gold. "Quickly open the white bead and take a look."
Xiao Jiu also cracked open the white bead, and a cluster of flames floated in the air.
"This is... the fire of the sun god! Although there is only a wisp of it, it is divine fire."
Little Jiu started wailing again. Its owner must have had some incredible luck! This is just too lucky!
Youyou was sent into the space from Xiaoli's dantian. As soon as it entered, it felt a fatal attraction. It felt that if it swallowed this divine fire, it could evolve.
So it charged toward the sun god's fire, and the two flames clashed, one green and one gold, spinning and chasing each other incessantly.
The golden fire of the sun god was only a wisp to begin with, and it quickly fell into a disadvantageous position.
Finally, Youyou devoured the Sun God's Fire, becoming the big winner, and its color turned blue.
"Master, I'm about to evolve. During this time, I'll be in this space, using this evolutionary power to help the Heavenly Heart Tree grow. It will also benefit greatly this time."
Xiao Li nodded in agreement and quietly entered the heart of the Heavenly Heart Wood, merging with it.
"Master, I'm going to cultivate now. With the Breath Soil, I can recover faster, and maybe I can even evolve in the future."
Xiao Li was very curious, "What can you evolve into?"
Little Nine sensed its owner's curiosity and said proudly.
"I have evolved. I am still a Nine-Leaf Golden Ginseng, but my grade can be raised to a higher level. I can produce spiritual liquid for my master to consume, which can save his life."
"Oh, this is good."
"That's right, I'm very useful."
Xiao Li suppressed a laugh and withdrew her divine sense. She had really made a profit this time.
☆
Hu San Niang's background is still a mystery, but she has found her younger brother, which should bring some comfort to the original owner of this body.
Xiao Li did not venture out again. She stayed in Qingqiu and devoted herself to alchemy. This time she obtained many spiritual herbs, which she refined into pills.
She also helped her fellow clansmen refine elixirs and assist them in their cultivation.
Gradually, her fame grew, and the entire demon realm knew that a fox demon from Qingqiu could refine pills.
The fox clan chief even came to see her and discussed the distribution of the pills with her.
Xiao Li was also willing to do something for Qingqiu and readily agreed.
The clan chief convened a meeting of the elders, and after a day of discussion, they finally came up with a set of rules.
Xiao Li was focused on refining pills and didn't care about these things.
Ten years later, her alchemy skills had broken through to the intermediate level, and she had also taught some promising juniors. From then on, she only focused on refining intermediate-level pills.
"Third Sister, Father asked me to tell you that the Anshan Fox Clan will be visiting tomorrow, and the clan leader hopes you will attend as well."
Xiao Li nodded. She was willing to make contact with any fox clan members from outside the clan in order to investigate the original owner's background.
Anshan is one of the mountain ranges three hundred miles away from Qingqiu. It is rich in resources and is the habitat of the demon race. Anshan is the mountain of the fox race.
Over the past ten years, Xiao Li has researched a lot of information about Qingqiu, and it is highly likely that the original owner was not a descendant of Qingqiu.
So she must be from an outside fox clan, and Anshan is one of the closest fox clans, and most importantly, Anshan has a large number of white foxes.
The next day, Xiaoli dressed up specially before going to the banquet hall.
Upon entering the banquet hall, a loud bang was heard as a glass cup in a middle-aged man's hand fell to the ground and shattered.
He stood up and muttered to himself, "It's so similar..."
Xiaoli felt excited; was there really a clue?
The two fox clans were eager to befriend each other and had a pleasant conversation. Xiao Li noticed that the middle-aged man who had lost his composure was named Andy and kept looking at her. Sure enough, he followed her after she left the banquet hall.
Why are you following me?
Andy looked at Xiaoli as if she were looking at someone else.
"So you're Hu Sanniang? Do you know who your parents are?"
Before Xiaoli could answer, he continued.
"Rumor has it that you were picked up by Elder Hu Lie. You're so young, you shouldn't know any of this."
Xiao Li invited Andy to her courtyard. The two sat in the courtyard, and Xiao Li thought that An Ye also had the right to know, so she called An Ye over as well.
Unexpectedly, Andy's expression changed drastically upon seeing An, and he immediately attacked the jade gourd around An's neck.
With a wave of his hand, the jade gourd on An's neck flew into his hand. He made a series of hand seals, and a drop of blood merged into the jade gourd. The shadow of a woman appeared before everyone.
"I have no hope of ever returning to Anshan in this life. The person who sees this photo must be my closest relative."
I was harmed by An Meng. On the day of my burial, I woke up and struggled to climb out of the coffin. I gave birth to my child and fell into the river while washing him.
When I woke up again, I was in Qingshui Village. My child was nowhere to be found, and I had lost my memory.
Later, I married Genzi and had a child. When the child was three years old, I met Anmeng by chance, regained my memory, but was then hunted down by him.
He harmed me twice, killed my husband, and harmed my child. This is an irreconcilable hatred. I hope my parents and brothers will know and avenge me.
This child is a descendant of humans, and my beloved son. I beg my parents and elder brothers to raise him/her in gratitude.
A moment later, the image disappeared without a trace.
Andy cried uncontrollably, calling out for his sister while cursing Anmon.
After a long while, Andy gradually calmed down.
Xiao Li brewed them a pot of tea with leaves of the Tianxin wood, which is said to calm the mind and focus the spirit.
Andy began to speak slowly.
"This is a secret technique of my family. After performing this technique, one's soul will be scattered and death is certain."
The moment I saw you, I knew you were my sister's child.
He then looked at An, "You too. Although you don't look like her, the jade gourd you wear around your neck is the one she carried with her since childhood."
He secretly touched the jade gourd that had returned to his neck; it was indeed something he had since childhood.
“My younger sister is named Anxin. She was the little princess of Anshan since she was a child. After she grew up, she married her childhood sweetheart Anmeng, and a year later, you were born.”
Andy looked at Xiaoli and continued speaking.
"Unfortunately, she had an accident when she was out with Anmeng when you were about to be born. By the time she returned to Anshan, it was too late. We buried her in the back mountain."
At this point, Andy's face contorted in a grimace.
“Anmon will soon marry another woman. We are angry, but there is nothing we can do, since your mother has already passed away.”
My second brother and I were furious, so we went to confront Anmeng. We were surprised to learn that he was only with your mother to get our family's support. Now that he had gotten what he wanted, he naturally had to give way to the woman he loved.
Finally, my father, your maternal grandfather, wanted to move your mother's grave back, but to our utter surprise, the coffin was empty. We searched for many years, but we still couldn't find your mother's whereabouts.
Andy looked into the shadows and said, "I never imagined your mother was among the humans."
