Chapter 643 Fate of the couple (3)
It took a minute before Yang Qing consolidated his thoughts together. The couple didn't interrupt him as they too had thoughts of their own to arrange which were largely centered on their fate, the fate of the Deer Mountain Range, and if they would even get the chance to avenge their daughter.
"Did his master not use the treasure bone to complete her evolution?" asked Yang Qing once he had finished arranging his thoughts.
"She did use it,?but not to evolve into a flood dragon even though it would have been easier for her to evolve into a complete flood dragon unlike me or my daughter.
Her constitution suited it perfectly but she didn't want to abandon her true form and opted to just use it to strengthen her bloodline and foundations while contemplating the dao markings within it..."
It was Bai Su who answered this time, with a gaze of worship.
"She wanted to walk forward with her original form. I am not sure many would make the same choice.." she added.
"It seems you're acquainted with her?" asked Yang Qing when he saw Bai Su smile for the first time since he met her.
"I did when I was just a fledgling in the core formation realm and didn't know better. She saved me from being eaten.." answered Bai Su as her gaze flickered.
"I know my talent well enough. If it wasn't for your constant sacrifices Zhen'er, I wouldn't have reached the heights that I've reached.
Even now I can tell, my potential has already been exhausted. This is as far as I will ever reach and I am okay with it, but Qin'er I hoped she could reach her heights someday. I hoped our daughter would soar to the skies and see a world I could never see.." she added with sorrow in her tone.
"I am sorry you had me for a wife, and our daughter had me for a mother. I failed you both.." she said as tears slowly trickled down her cheeks.
"I am not. You and Qin'er are my greatest accomplishments.." firmly said Bai Zhen as cast a gentle gaze on Bai Su.
"But I am glad you're more self-aware now of how lucky you are to have me. Back then you even tried to eat me and when that didn't work you even schemed with adler and badger to give me a beating..." Bai Zhen cheekily said drawing a smile from his wife.
"You were arrogant back then. I couldn't stand your smug look, the same look you're showing right now. Seems like the beatings were not enough.." said Bao Su with a teasing threatening smile.
Yang Qing didn't interrupt as he wondered to himself if he would ever have something similar. A certain nosey purple-haired gossip hoarder appeared in his mind before he hurriedly shook his head to clear his thoughts. He still had questions that needed answering.
Once the couple had settled down, he asked,
"So whatever was left behind after contemplation, she gave it to the fire adler bear?" asked Yang Qing.
"Yes. Even though Adler wasn't a match with it for evolution he could at least contemplate the profundities contained within it to improve himself.
Even without using it for evolution, it was still precious and had wonderful benefits. But he wanted to be like his master.." said Bai Zhen with a laugh.
"I don't know whether it's true or not, Adler likes to exaggerate things all the time. But he told me the real reason his master didn't use the treasure bone for evolution was because if she was to evolve, she wanted it to be into a true dragon and not a poisonous snake that shared its name.
Only as a true dragon would she feel worthy of telling the senior who had given her the treasure bone, that his efforts were not wasted.
Adler decided to adopt the same stance as hers and decided to pave his own way forward so that when his master came back she would think he had grown and wasn't the same troublemaker cub he had been back then.
I think that's the reason he was so close to our daughter. It was his way of showing he had really matured. Though he was still just as cheeky as the oversized mischievous cub I knew back then.." Bai Zhen said with a smile.
"He was.." echoed Bai Su with a smile of her own.
"The foundation circle I was talking about; the blood pond, the harmonic garden filled with plants of different elements, the lake with inner flame mosaic flower, and the region with the sunset heart-seeking boulder, did Adler set it all up was it the doing of his master?" asked Yang Qing getting to the real thing he wanted to know about.
"At first we thought it was his master's doing but Adler smugly said it wasn't and it was his doing.
But I didn't believe him. I know him well enough to know he doesn't have any of the skills required to create something like that.
He kept insisting it was all him, and it was only when I threatened to not let my daughter try did he finally fess up.
The design was made by a resident of this range, an eclipse spiritweave fox that went by the name of Jiang Xiang.
He may have not been the most combative spirit beast, but he had been one of the leading figures of the range once upon a time, especially as a mediator, and his talents even extended to humans.
Because of this aura of tranquility and serenity, he can form friendships easily and make even the most volatile of spirit beasts, calm down.
He was well-liked and the range enjoyed a period of peace thanks to him, however, he left to explore the outside world and try to be a merchant or a scholar or something of the sort. He was always fascinated by humans and their different facets when it came to personality and their ingenuity with cultivation arts.
He was always curious. I think it was about seven thousand years ago, and he was at the sixth or seventh stage of the palace realm, he decided to venture outside, up until two thousand years ago when he briefly came back, which was the time he met with Adler..."
Bai Zhen paused for a bit and continued.
"Adler told me Jiang Xiang had managed to join a merchant company by the name of the White Rose Pavilion. I don't know much about it, but from the way he put it, it has to be something big in your world.."
"It is, they're pretty powerful and widespread. Jiang Xiang must have been talented to get a job there.." said Yang Qing which drew a surprised look from the couple.
After seeing a bit of the depth of the Order, for the White Rose Pavilion to garner such a remark from a member of the Order, the pavilion had to be powerful.
Bai Zhen and his wife had assumed the fire adler bear embellished some of the information, so he could receive their cooperation in letting their daughter go through with the evolution process.
