Chapter 543: Chapter 535: The Origin of Xiao Qing

Special flames are extremely precious and scarce; the innocent man is blameless, but invites trouble with his possession.

Should those powerful beings come to know of it, it would easily become a target of their contention. When the strong desire to loot the treasures of the weak, they wouldn’t bother with reason and would simply seize it by force.

“Understood!”

Xiao Qing nodded in agreement.

“Master, take a look at this.”

With a wave of her hand in the air, Xiao Qing released a beam of green light that shot straight out from her body.

It was unexpectedly an ancient greenish Pill Furnace.

The material was indiscernible, somewhat resembling ancient bronze. The outer walls of the Pill Furnace were adorned with Thistle Dragon Patterns and complex runes, with hints of electric sparks flickering and magical light emerging intermittently. An aura of dignity emanated from the Pill Furnace, making anyone facing it feel as if they were in the presence of a supremely noble Immortal.

Moreover, the dignified aura it emitted seemed to be of a higher grade than even the Immortal Might of the Great Immortal Envoy.

Dong!

The Pill Furnace landed on the ground with a dull thud.

It was indeed a real Pill Furnace, not one condensed by the power of her Medicine King Sutra.

“It can change size and be taken into the body for nourishment; could this Pill Furnace possibly be a Magical Treasure?”

Up until now, the only piece of equipment that Qin Niu had obtained which possibly was a Magical Treasure was the Hundred Treasures Insect Bag. It was quite special, capable of taking insects into the bag.

But he was not sure whether the Hundred Treasures Insect Bag was definitely a Magical Treasure.

According to the legends, even ordinary Immortal Masters might not possess a Magical Treasure.

“It is the Magical Treasure passed down through generations in our Yao Family, specially used for Alchemy. This Medicine King Tower was secretly left by my Yao Family, and to mislead others, it has always been open for public use. But the most important Medicine King Furnace of our family was hidden at the bottom of this tower when the Yao Family encountered the calamity of annihilation.

Protected by defensive formations that even an Immortal King would find difficult to break through, and guarded by the Purple Flame Divine Fire, it has remained safe and sound over the years.

One must successfully cultivate the Medicine King Sutra and produce two Pill Furnaces to enter the second level of the tower basement.

After entering, there are even stronger and more concealed restrictions inside, which only the bloodline of the Yao Family can unlock.

Thirteen years ago, my Yao Family faced the calamity of annihilation, and every elder and senior Cultivator in the clan was either killed or bound by spells. My father was a hidden bloodline of the Yao Family, and when the disaster struck our clan, he escaped with the Medicine King Sutra.

Later, during his escape, he met my mother, and after they fell in love, I was born.

But the good times did not last long. At that time, I was still in my infancy when my father was unfortunately tracked down by our enemies.

The enemies refused to spare the last bloodline of the Yao Family.

In order to protect me, my parents had no choice but to abandon me heartlessly.

Yet they did their utmost to lure the enemies away.

What happened afterward, I am not sure, as the information recorded in this jade amulet is only this much.”

By this point, Xiao Qing was already in tears.

Her current cultivation had advanced to the late stage of the Spirit Qi Realm, indicating that she gained great benefits beneath the ground.

“Initially, your parents abandoned you to protect you, this was an act of desperation, not heartlessness or a lack of love. Do you understand this?”

“Of course, I do!”

Xiao Qing bit her lip as she nodded forcefully, tears cascading down continuously.

“Since you have become my maidservant, it is a twist of fate. No matter how powerful your family’s enemies are, as long as I am capable, I will spare no effort to protect you completely.”

Qin Niu had made his stance clear.

He always cherished those close to him—family and friends. Since he was adopted by Old Man Liu from a young age, he held the precious human emotions of kinship, love, and friendship in even higher regard.

“Thank you, Master!”

At this moment, Xiao Qing felt Qin Niu’s caring love, which made her more reliant and closer to him.

The two were not related by blood, yet their bond was as strong as if they were.
