But just as he finished speaking, Hu Huan pulled him into his embrace, pinching his cheek and kneading it with a mischievous smile.
"Hehe, my good disciple, do you know how adorable you look with that serious expression? Even I can’t resist wanting to tease you a bit!"
This awkward exchange left everyone speechless, even Xue An was somewhat unable to look straight at it.
The former Great Elder, now the little young master Hu An, was even more expressionless, filled with a sense of hopelessness, and feebly said, "Master, can you stop talking nonsense? Can’t you be a bit more proper?"
"Be proper?" Hu Huan chuckled, "What a joke, when have I ever been proper? Besides, if I were truly proper, would I still be me?"
Hu An: "..."
And then he completely resigned himself.
The key was that with such an unreliable master, he had no choice but to accept his fate.
Yes.
Hu Huan was indeed Hu An’s master, and a genuine one at that.
Back then, Hu Huan, as the first Great Elder of Qingqiu Fox Country, was renowned for his astonishing talent, shaking The Multiverse.
Yet, strong as he was, he only accepted one disciple, and that was Hu An.
Later, as Hu An gradually grew and eventually became the new generation Great Elder of Qingqiu Fox Country, Hu Huan suddenly disappeared without a trace.
It wasn’t until Hu An faced the five declines of a Heavenly Being, teetering on the brink of death, that he returned, forcibly reversing Hu An’s fate, turning him into a fruit on the Three Lives Tree, thus saving his life.
Xue An detected something unusual at that time.
Though there were many twists and turns, the final result was a joyous one, causing the entire Qingqiu Fox Country to erupt in celebration.
Ah Rou’s wedding was considered complete, but the wedding of the Second Dragon Princess Ao Yi couldn’t be hastily arranged.
After all, this involved the marriage alliance between the Qingqiu and the Dragon Clan, two major factions of the Demon Race, so the Second Dragon Princess Ao Yi and the Dragon Clan Great Elder returned first to prepare.
Zhuge Cang, witnessing this scene, couldn’t help but sigh, "Once this marriage is concluded, it’s likely that the Demon Race will be united!"
Previously, Zhuge Cang had been severely injured in the battle with Tian Xiu and even fell unconscious.
But with the full efforts of the Qingqiu Fox Country in healing him, he quickly regained consciousness, especially since Hu An spared no effort, even sacrificing his own vital essence to aid his recovery.
Thus, Zhuge Cang not only fully recovered but even advanced in cultivation level and realm.
Upon hearing this, Xue An smiled, "Isn’t that a good thing?"
Zhuge Cang gave Xue An a peculiar look, "Aren’t you afraid that the rise of the Demon Race might threaten the rule of the Human Clan?"
Xue An gazed at the starry sky and said indifferently, "If the Human Clan’s rule can be so easily threatened, it only proves that the Human Clan hasn’t done enough. What they should do is reflect and improve, not worry about whether other races might rise!"
Zhuge Cang’s face showed a look of contemplation, and after a while, he sighed softly, "What you say is true, but how many in the Human Clan today have this awareness? Internal strife is the eternal melody of our Human Clan!"
Xue An suddenly revealed a set of gleaming white teeth, smiling eerily, "What if the Human Clan were unified by force as well?"
Zhuge Cang trembled all over, then stared at Xue An quite astonished, "Are you saying...?"
Xue An said leisurely, "In my past life, I was once very opposed to using force to subdue others, always thinking that allowing a hundred flowers to bloom was best, but now I suddenly feel that sometimes strong rule isn’t a bad thing, especially when..."
"In times of an uncertain future, and when darkness is filled with unknown dangers, only unity can ensure we remain unshaken."
Zhuge Cang’s eyes gradually showed a solemn look.
What Xue An said might have sounded obscure and hard to understand initially, but Zhuge Cang understood it.
Upon hearing footsteps, Hu Huan didn’t even open his eyes, speaking with a lazy tone, "You’re here!"
"Yes, I’m here!"
"Hehe, it looks like you know why I called you here?"
Xue An also smiled, "Of course!"
Hu Huan suddenly opened his eyes, a brilliant light flashed through the White Pagoda, then he closed them again, speaking lightly, "Hua Clan... who would’ve thought that the illustrious Red Lotus Immortal Venerable is actually someone from the Hua Clan."
"Why? Is that strange?" Without a chair in the White Pagoda, Xue An simply sat on the floor, smiling.
"It’s not strange, it’s rather a bit poignant." Hu Huan sighed deeply at this point, then looked at Xue An with piercing eyes.
"Do you want to ask about the battle back then?"
"Of course!" Xue An answered without hesitation.
"Then tell me first, what do you know now!"
Xue An didn’t conceal anything, directly laying out everything he knew, and after finishing, he looked at Hu Huan.
"This is all I know."
Hu Huan remained silent for a long time before finally letting out a long sigh, "I really didn’t expect, you’ve already learned so much, even personally dealing with many enemies."
"But that’s far from enough, isn’t it? After all, the blood spilled by the Hua Clan back then could fill an entire ocean." Xue An said coldly.
"I understand your point, but you might be disappointed because I don’t know much more than you."
