The next day, Tian Fen came to Elder Tian's room alone to pay her respects.

"Good morning, grandfather."

"Fen, why are you not sleeping? You must be tired from your journey these past few days."

"Hehe, Grandpa, I'm not tired."

"Speak, is there something you need of me? I don't believe that our Fen'er's personality would change after not seeing her for only half a year." Others only saw Tian Fen's naive and lively side, but he understood that once this granddaughter of her returned home, she would only get up once she fell asleep late into the morning. After all, cultivation in the Sword Sect was extremely bitter, especially in the Profound Maiden School that she was in, the competition was too fierce.

"Grandfather, you're too smart. I can't hide anything from you. Actually, I wanted to ask you if you could take us to see that plum tree. Senior Brother Lee Xun is very interested. "

"I think you want to see it." The Plum Tree of the Tian Family had a special meaning to the Tian Family. Apart from him, the Tian Family's Patriarch, no one else was allowed to see it, not even his own son and daughter.

"Grandfather, is this good?" Tian Fen began to act coquettishly.

"Alright, alright. You're almost seventeen this year, and it's time to tell you some of the clan's secrets. Outsiders know that our family has a thousand-year-old peach tree, but only a few know that it is the foundation of our family. One hundred and fifteen years ago, our family encountered an unprecedented crisis. Because the last warrior of the twelfth step passed away from our family, you should know what this means to our Tian Family. We've been keeping this a secret for a long time, but a year later, some of our enemies found out. When they came to make trouble, our family welcomed a mysterious expert. With a raise of her hand, she beat up three experts of the twelfth step until they vomited blood. My great-grandfather tried to befriend him at that time, but he didn't expect that the expert would straightforwardly agree to protect our Tian Clan. However, the condition is to give the thousand-year-old peach tree to her. However, in the past three hundred years, the majority of our clan's experts have been weakened by that fruit. At that time, Great Grandfather and that senior had talked about giving some fruits to the younger generation of the Tian Family that she had taken a liking to, then he asked her to give them to them and teach them in their stead. In these hundred years, under the guidance of senior, our Tian Family has gained seven experts in Eleventh Rank and three experts of the twelfth rank, which could be said to be the blessing of disaster. "Originally, grandpa wanted to wait until you are twenty and become stronger before you can bring me to see senior. However, I did not expect that you had improved so much in just half a year. So, grandpa wants to bring you to meet the guardian god of our Tian Clan."

Hearing this, Tian Fen finally understood that there was actually such a thing happening in the clan, and there was even a peerless expert in the clan. She couldn't help but be curious about the Guardian God.

"Grandfather, then my senior brothers and sisters ?" Tian Fen could not continue speaking here. After all, this concerned the life and death of the clan, and if they were to forcefully bring outsiders to disturb the expert, then it would truly be troublesome. But today, she had praised him in front of Lee Xun and the others, making it difficult for her to advance or retreat.

"Fen'er, Lee Xun and Qin Qing are talents that only appear once every hundred years, the other three people's aptitudes are also the best choices. Grandfather doesn't want you to feel troubled so I can bring them along, but whether or not Senior wishes to see them, I cannot make the decision. You can tell the truth about this matter. "

Tian Fen went back and told the truth to Lee Xun and the rest, they did not expect the matter to be so troublesome. However, they were extremely grateful for the honesty and trust Tian had placed in them.

"Fen, don't make things difficult for us, it's not like we won't be able to see the plum tree, but after hearing what you said, I'm more interested in that master, but seeing or not is fate, you don't have to care." Lee Xun consoled.

After lunch, Lee Xun and the others were led to the front of a courtyard by Master Tian.

"You guys just wait here for a moment, I will bring Fen in first, I am truly sorry."

"Lordmaster, you're too polite. We're all juniors, you're taking our lives for granted." Lee Xun had felt Elder Tian's warmth these past two days, so he felt that it was better for him to not to follow him earlier.

When Tian Fen followed the old man into the courtyard, she saw a fiery red peach tree. On the tree, nearly a hundred small fruits were hanging. Beneath the tree, there was a young lady meditating. The girl was very beautiful, even Tian Fen who was always confident in herself felt inferior. A black panther with a green glint was lying beside the woman. The black panther seemed to be sleeping.

Old Master Tian brought Tian Fen to the girl and bowed respectfully.

The woman did not open her eyes as she said, "Tian Zhen, your Tian Clan has finally produced a talent."

To be able to receive such praise from this guardian of the Tian Family, she knew that Tian Fen was definitely the first. In other words, in time, Tian Fen had the highest hopes of becoming a strong warrior that had surpassed the twelfth stage.

Tian Zhen bowed again, and said. "Senior, thanks to you protecting our Tian Clan for a hundred years, our Tian Clan is truly unable to repay you. Fen is truly a talented person, I hope senior can give us some pointers."

Tian Fen also kneeled down and kowtowed three times.

"Get up. When you're twenty, bring her here to cultivate with me. Tian Zhen, go to the same place and get forty Peach Pills. Let her consume one every month."

One per month. In the past hundred years, those of his clan who received a Spirit Peach Pill every year would be so happy that they wouldn't even be able to sleep for a few days.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Tian Zhen said, "Thank you, senior." Senior, there is one more thing. " Tian Zhen stopped to look at the woman's expression. Seeing that she did not stop him, he continued, "There are still a few juniors outside that are Fen's senior brothers and sisters. Their talents are not inferior to Fen's.

"Let them in."

When Lee Xun and the others saw this outrageously young expert, their mouths were all wide open. Lee Xun could not help but think in his heart, could this be the legendary old demon? However, the black panther from before was nowhere to be seen.

When Lee Xun and the rest bowed, the lady actually opened her eyes, it was a pair of extremely beautiful eyes, but Lee Xun felt that there was a trace of sadness in her eyes.

"All of you are not bad, looks like that Ouyang Qingfeng brat is getting more and more promising."

Lee Xun and the others looked at each other in dismay when they heard the words that the woman before them used to address Tianshan Sword Sect as Sect Leader. But when they thought back to one hundred and fifteen years ago, he was already an extreme expert, and their own Sect Leader was probably around the same age as them at that time, so it wasn't weird for them to address each other like that.

"I wasn't taught by that cunning old man." Lee Xun muttered.

"Tian Zhen, bring them and wait outside. You stay." The lady pointed to Lee Xun.

This sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard. Tian Zhen naturally did not dare to disobey the woman's orders and immediately left with the others.

"Is your master well?" The woman's voice suddenly became soft.

Lee Xun observed that the woman's face was slightly flushed. Although it was very brief, he still saw it. He thought to himself: This woman can't be the old man's lover, right? It seems that the old man also called Ouyang Qingfeng a little guy, it couldn't be such a coincidence.

"Master is very good, but I don't know why senior would ask, but I have never met him before."

"The Spatial Ring in your hands is a gift from him, right?" As she spoke, the woman extended her left hand. On the middle finger of her left hand, there was actually a ring with exactly the same color pattern.

"My Spatial Ring was indeed gifted to me by my master. I wonder what kind of relationship does senior have with my master?" Lee Xun was becoming more and more curious about this woman, and her tone of voice was also becoming more and more respectful.

Suddenly, a purple light flashed out, causing Lee Xun to become angry, but at the critical moment in his words, Little Fire Fox actually ran out. This little fellow had been sleeping soundly ever since it had entered the Spatial Ring. Lee Xun had wanted to wake it up several times, but the little fellow had never reacted.

"Yi, Purple Spirit Fire Fox." The lady looked at Little Fire Fox as if she had thought of something.

Little Fire Fox immediately came out and circled around the peach tree. From the direction of the's sharp eyes, one could tell how much it desired the fruits, but it also knew that the fruits were not ripe yet and was clearly a little anxious.

Just as Little Fire Fox was about to climb up the tree, a streak of black light flashed and a black panther that was many times larger than Little Fire Fox appeared. It bared its fangs at Little Fire Fox, clearly warning him.

Little Fire Fox felt the strength of her opponent, and was not someone she could deal with, so she quickly jumped into Lee Xun's embrace. Lee Xun also laughed bitterly, if the black panther really wanted to harm him, he would have to account for its strength here, and Lee Xun could sense how powerful the black panther really was the moment it appeared.

"Little Qing, they are on the same side as us. Don't scare the two little fellows. Go back." The woman stroked the head of the black panther. The black panther seemed to enjoy itself very much, disappearing without a trace.

"I really didn't think that you would find the Spiritual Beast at such a young age. It's a pity that it doesn't have the same attribute as you, I really don't know how it would agree to stay by your side." The woman seemed to feel very regretful as she spoke.

Lee Xun told the woman in detail about the origins of the Little Fire Fox. If he wanted to trick her, he naturally had to pay a price, and Zixing had already been exposed. There wasn't much of a need to hide his origins from such an expert. Little Fire Fox also felt bored and went back to sleep in his storage ring.

"So that's how it is. Purple Spirit Fire Fox are the top quality Spiritual Beast among the Spiritual Beast. You should hide it well. If someone sees it, it might be detrimental to you."

"Senior, I don't know how you got to know my teacher, but I've never heard him mention it before." Lee Xun could feel the concern of the woman towards him, so he dared to ask again.

"If you can promise that you will bring your master to see me in the future, I'll tell you about the matter between us."

Lee Xun's heart skipped a beat: There was a problem, there was definitely a problem, he did not think that this old man would have any problems with it, but something was not right, this girl was so beautiful, and was so powerful, how could she not be able to beat this old man?

"Senior, please forgive this junior but I will definitely bring back the wish that you wanted to see my master. As for whether he comes or not, that will depend on the old man's decision. "

"That's right. He was the one who nurtured you after all. Do you know that if you had agreed just now, I would have chopped you apart with one palm?" The woman's words were still as soft as before, but when Lee Xun heard her, he immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

What kind of person was this? Why did he want his life so silently? He almost got involved. Sure enough, the people who were related to the old man were all strange people.
