It's the same master, the exact same master, but something feels different from before.
Who cares!
"Owner!!!"
The enormous Wang Qian instantly shrank to the size of a small dog, flew into Yun Zhiqi's arms, and affectionately licked Yun Zhiqi's face with its tongue.
Wang Qian was the son of the Qilin Demon Emperor who was brought to the Immortal Realm. He grew up with Yun Zhiqi and was particularly dependent on her.
Yun Zhiqi hugged Wang Qian and spun her around like a little girl, laughing, "Alright, alright, stop fooling around. Come with me into the treasure vault and get something."
Wang Qian nestled in Yun Zhiqi's arms, feeling utterly aggrieved. Looking at Yun Zhiqi's face, she complained, "Master, after you passed away, those bad people always wanted to open the treasure vault. I have taken on the responsibility of protecting the treasure vault."
Yun Zhiqi used the power of [River of Time] to help Wang Qian recover from her injuries, nodded gently, and said, "Thank you for remembering our friendship."
Wang Qian's tears fell instantly, and she choked out, "If it weren't for my master's efforts to protect me back then, Wang Qian wouldn't be alive today."
In ancient times, the Qilin Demon Emperor, along with a group of demon emperors and their retinues, were captured by the immortal realm in order to protect the demon world. The Qilin Demon Emperor was unwilling to be enslaved and reduced to a celestial beast, and rose up in rebellion, but was no match for the combined suppression of the celestial kings.
The Celestial Kings decided to execute the captured Qilin clan, including Wang Qian. The young Yun Zhiqi pleaded with his father, Celestial King Yun Xian, to get Wang Qian, the daughter of the Qilin Demon Emperor, which saved Wang Qian's life.
Wang Qian played an indispensable role in Yun Zhiqi's eventual ascension to the throne.
A normal Qilin is golden all over, exuding a noble and domineering aura, but Wang Qian is black and red all over. This is not because her bloodline is impure, but precisely because it is too pure, which caused Wang Qian to achieve a second awakening of her bloodline.
Her talent and potential rose to a new level, making her a capable assistant to Yun Zhiqi, leading a group of celestial beasts and fighting alongside Yun Zhiqi in the north and south. After gaining the recognition of the celestial realm, Yun Zhiqi took on the war against the demon race, and Wang Qian followed her.
Even though Yun Zhiqi didn't leave any instructions when she passed away, she believed that her master would return and fought desperately to protect the Immortal Emperor's Treasury, because only this treasury could give Yun Zhiqi a chance to start over.
In March, it flew to the very center of the treasure vault, where there was a rhomboid groove emitting a faint blue light, and inside the groove was the imprint of a hand.
Tu Keke and Su Qing stared at each other wide-eyed. Tu Keke complained, "I thought it would be some cooler way to unlock it, but it's just palm print unlocking?"
After returning to the human realm for a week, Shao Shenyun smiled and explained to the two of them, "What seems like a simple palm print unlock is actually a power authentication unlock. Only the power within Yun Zhiqi can unlock her treasure trove."
Tu Keke let out a "waaaah" sound, her eyes fixed on the Cloud's Cry in front of her.
As the groove covered Yun Zhiqi's palm, the Immortal Emperor's Treasury emitted a powerful temporal fluctuation. If Yun Zhiqi had not had foresight, this fluctuation would have spread throughout the entire Immortal Realm, which would have completely deviated from Yun Zhiqi's plan.
The treasure vault, resembling a box, overflowed with the fluctuations of time, emitting the sound of mechanical gears turning inside. Soon, the diamond-shaped groove expanded to the size of a door, and the wide door swirled with golden vortexes, revealing the breath of time from the other end of the vortex.
Yun Zhiqi stroked March's soft phoenix feathers and said, "You've worked hard, March. Keep going."
In March, a loud phoenix cry rang out, followed by a flap of its wings, carrying the people on its back as it plunged headlong into the golden vortex.
Despite Yun Zhiqi's somewhat impolite attitude towards Bai Ningbing and Shang Xinci, she actually maintains a friendly and communicative attitude towards the demon race. Otherwise, Wang Qian wouldn't have gone to such lengths, guarding the treasure vault for her for so long even when Yun Zhiqi wasn't around.
March was willing to listen to Yun Zhiqi's request not only because Yun Zhiqi was Tu Yier, but also because of Yun Zhiqi's own affability.
A strong sense of dizziness swept over Su Qing. Even though there was another powerful soul in her body, Su Qing's physical body was still that of an ordinary person, unlike others who had cultivated.
Shao Shenyun put her arm around Su Qing's shoulder and channeled chaotic energy into her body to help her resist the uncomfortable dizziness.
Tu Keke looked around curiously and found various faintly glowing objects floating in the dark surroundings, like stars in the night sky, providing a dim light to the treasure vault.
Yun Zhiqi leaped lightly, floating to the center of the treasure vault. The moment she opened her arms, the various divine weapons and immortal artifacts floating within the vault resonated, unleashing a burst of intense light that illuminated the entire vault, turning the once pitch-black vault into a bright, daylight-like space.
Su Qing and Tu Keke were quite surprised by what they saw.
Yun Zhiqi beckoned to her right, and a pair of swords slowly flew into her hands. She gently stroked the two swords and murmured, "I have found you a master who is more suitable for you than I am. From now on, stay with her. I believe she will be the most suitable for you."
After speaking, the male and female immortal swords, Gan Jiang and Mo Xie, slowly flew towards Tu Keke at Yun Zhiqi's instruction. The blonde girl received the ancient immortal swords with a look of surprise in her eyes.
Shao Shenyun flashed in front of Tu Keke, snatched the two swords and threw them at Yun Zhiqi.
"What do you mean? Are you trying to annoy people with something like this?!"
Yun Zhiqi caught the two swords with one hand and met Shao Shenyun's gaze with cold eyes. Tu Keke and Su Qing were equally puzzled as to why Shao Shenyun suddenly did this.
Shao Shenyun looked at Tu Keke and explained, "Keke, those two swords are covered in the blood of our human race."
When the swords Gan Jiang and Mo Xie were forged, the male sword Gan Jiang incorporated the blood of three thousand young men, while the female sword Mo Xie incorporated the blood of three thousand young women.
As the swords approached Tu Keke, Shao Shenyun keenly sensed the extremely strong resentment emanating from both swords. If Tu Keke were to use such swords, unless he was at the ninth level, he would be unable to resist the resentment emanating from them.
Even at the ninth level, if one's mental state becomes lax, one will suffer the backlash of resentment.
Yun Zhiqi also sensed something was wrong, but there was only one pair of swords, so she had no choice but to apologize to Tu Keke, saying, "I'm sorry, Keke, this is the only pair of swords we have, but it's really not suitable for you. I'll find you another pair if I have the chance."
Tu Keke suddenly felt a chill; no wonder she felt a bone-chilling cold when the sword flew into her hand.
Shao Shenyun snorted coldly and said in a cold tone, "Do what you're going to do quickly, so we can go pick up Yanluo and take her home."
Yun Zhiqi didn't pay attention to Shao Shenyun's tone. This was considered as her stepping on Shao Shenyun's landmine. She nodded, stretched out her hand, and gently waved it. A purple-gold box slowly flew into Yun Zhiqi's hand.
After obtaining the Soul Gathering Box, the group, along with a bird and a dog, flew down to the ground of the treasure vault. The shrunken Wang Qian and the shrunken San Yue ran off to play.
Yun Zhiqi looked at Shao Shenyun and said, "I will remove the seal on the Demon Emperor's soul from Su Qing's body and use the Soul Gathering Box to extract her soul. Then Su Qing will be safe."
