Su Xian'er poured tea for Hei Yue and Grandpa Zhang, but neither of them looked at the teacups, nor did they have any intention of drinking the tea.
Chu Xuan did not care.
Instead, he said to himself, "Hei Yue, or should I call you Ji Hei Yue instead?"
"What did you say? Who are you?"
Grandpa Zhang stood up abruptly, his aura rising threateningly.
Hei Yue clapped her hands and said calmly, "Grandfather, there's no need to be like this!"
Grandpa Zhang's chest heaved up and down a few times before he finally listened to his granddaughter and sat down again. However, the rage in his eyes could not be hidden.
It could be seen that the current patriarch of the Ji family had caused Hei Yue, as well as Hei Yue's mother, to undergo a lot of suffering.
This made Grandpa Zhang extremely angry.
Chu Xuan ignored Grandpa Zhang's anger as he continued to speak, "You're not that old, not even a hundred years old. Your ninth-level Emperor realm cultivation isn't too shabby."
"The Emperor realm isn't your limit. It's just a pity that cultivation is extremely difficult and painful for you."
"You were born with a divine soul, but it's a pity that your divine soul is incomplete. This kind of deficiency wasn't caused by an injury, so it's hard to remedy."
Grandpa Zhang's eyes widened, and his aura was about to explode again.
Hei Yue comforted him. Even though her expression changed, she still tried her best to keep calm.
There were only two people in this world who knew that she was born with an incomplete divine soul.
Even her father did not know, and her mother had died.
It was obvious that the other party could see through it.
It was not strange for him to be able to see that her divine soul was incomplete, but being able to tell that she had been born with that condition was something that no ordinary expert could accomplish.
Chu Xuan continued, "You came to the Northern Zone to take control of the Black Moon Tower and establish an intelligence gathering system. Your ultimate goal is to find a treasure that can restore your divine soul, right?"
Hei Yue did not deny it.
Chu Xuan changed the topic and asked, "I am very curious. How did you discover that something was amiss in the Black Moon Tower?"
Hei Yue replied calmly, "I control the Black Moon Tower, so I naturally know how the Black Moon Tower operates. I am fully aware of the capabilities of each Tower Lord, so the sudden changes in the Black Moon Tower were very apparent to me. Since I did not incite those changes, I can naturally arrive at certain conclusions through those clues."
"Also, there's intuition."
Intuition was the real reason. She was born with a divine soul and had an innate intuition.
She came to the Northern Zone because her intuition told her that there was trouble in the Central Zone. As such, she hid in the Northern Zone.
"I quite like the Black Moon Tower."
Chu Xuan finished a cup of tea and Su Xian'er poured more for him.
Hei Yue remained silent for a while, before saying, "Then from now on, the Black Moon Tower is yours."
"Yue'er!"
Grandpa Zhang became anxious.
Hei Yue shook her head and stopped him from continuing.
She looked at Chu Xuan and said, "Do you have any other intentions?"
Chu Xuan pointed at the teacup and said, "Since you're already here, why don't you have a cup of tea?"
"Okay."
Hei Yue picked up the teacup.
"Yue'er, you..."
"It's okay, grandfather."
Hei Yue smiled and downed the teacup in one gulp.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up. She looked at the teacup and revealed a shocked expression.
"This is?"
"Thank you, Sir, for this cup of tea!"
Hei Yue stood up and bowed respectfully.
Grandpa Zhang was puzzled. What was the secret behind this tea?
Chu Xuan said with a smile, "I can restore your divine soul, and I can also help you become strong enough to return to the Central Zone. With my help, you can trample upon the Ji family and take back your dignity."
"Are you willing to acknowledge me as your master?"
Hei Yue hesitated for a moment before immediately kneeling on the ground.
"Hei Yue greets Master!"
Thud thud thud!
She kowtowed three times, and her forehead turned red.
Her emotions fluctuated a little, and a hint of pain flashed across her pale face.
Grandpa Zhang was stunned.
However, he remained silent. His granddaughter had always had her own way of doing things. Moreover, she was born with sharp instincts, which had helped her to avoid disasters several times.
She had found supreme treasures several times.
The fact that he could break through to the fifth level of the Divine realm was also related to this.
"Get up."
Chu Xuan was very satisfied.
He called out Xiang Xing.
"This is your fourth senior brother. In terms of the order in which you became disciples, you are ranked seventh."
"Greetings, Fourth Senior Brother!"
"Hello, Junior Sister."
Xiang Xing widened his eyes and sized up Hei Yue curiously.
Master had actually taken in a female disciple!
He waved his hand and handed over a puppet.
"Junior Sister, this is a welcome gift. Senior Brother personally refined this puppet."
Grandpa Zhang's face was filled with shock when he saw this.
That was a Heaven realm soul puppet, right?
He was only an Emperor realm cultivator, yet he had actually refined a Heaven realm soul puppet?
With this puppet, would he not be invincible in the same realm?
Under normal circumstances, given Xiang Xing's cultivation level, he would not be able to refine a Heaven realm soul puppet. The only reason he could do so was because the pocket dimension was special.
Moreover, for the sake of the Heavenly Dao Talisman plan, Chu Xuan had condensed a cluster of Dao aura around his artifact-refining area.
In addition, he had refined it with all sorts of high-level materials.
Of course, it had to be said that Xiang Xing's talent in artifact-refining was absolutely monstrous.
"Thank you, Fourth Senior Brother."
Hei Yue's expression remained calm, without any emotional fluctuations.
Xiang Xing did not mind.
He only cared about refining artifacts, not women. He was not bothered about Hei Yue's attitude and expression.
"You have accepted a disciple with an innate divine soul. She has the talent to carry out the Heavenly Dao Talisman plan. You have been rewarded with the Heavenly Dao Scripture."
The system's reward arrived.
Chu Xuan examined the Heavenly Dao Scripture. It was indeed an extremely powerful cultivation technique. When it was fully mastered, one would have the power of the Heavenly Dao, controlling all living things.
It just so happened to be in line with the Heavenly Dao Talisman plan. Hei Yue could be nurtured to become the first ruler of the Heavenly Dao!
Chu Xuan received the reward.
Xiang Xing had already returned to the pocket dimension to continue cultivating and refining artifacts.
As for courting his Junior Sister?
Such a thought did not exist in his mind.
Under the influence of that b*stard Ding Yue, he might also be destined to be a loner in the future.
"Since you have already acknowledged me as your Master, I will naturally resolve the issue of your incomplete divine soul."
Chu Xuan raised his hand and grabbed a fruit from his pocket dimension.
Dao fruit!
Soul-nourishing Dao fruit!
A cluster of Dao aura also appeared in his hand.
Grandpa Zhang's face was filled with shock. Was that a legendary treasure?
The other party had taken it out so casually. It was as if it was some common cabbage by the roadside.
Black Moon revealed a look of joy. Her choice was indeed correct.
Even though her soul was suffering pain due to the fluctuations of her emotions, she did not mind it at all.
From now on, she would no longer have to suffer.
"Eat it."
Chu Xuan handed the Dao fruit over.
Hei Yue stretched out her hand to receive it and said respectfully, "Thank you, Master!"
The Dao fruit entered her mouth and turned into a stream of energy that directly nourished her divine soul. The damaged divine soul received nourishment and was slowly being restored.
However, it seemed that it lacked enough energy to sustain and complete the restoration process.
Chu Xuan waved his hand and the cluster of Dao aura entered Hei Yue's body.
The Dao aura nourished her divine soul, causing the originally stagnant speed of the restoration process to increase once again.
Hei Yue's entire being fell into a wonderful state.
The process of her divine soul's restoration was also the moment of enlightenment for her.
Chu Xuan raised his hand and transmitted the Heavenly Dao Scripture into her mind. He said telepathically, "Cultivate this technique while suppressing your cultivation realm and solidifying your cultivation foundation. There's no rush to make a breakthrough."
"Yes, Master!"
Chu Xuan waved his hand and moved Hei Yue into the pocket dimension. He said, "You can cultivate and comprehend it there."
