Lick.
Lick, lick, lick.
Zhu Youniang carefully tried a few more times before finally confirming this shocking fact.
Humans did not taste that bad after all!
“But Xia told me earlier…”
She then glanced at the white-robed young man who was cultivating with his eyes closed.
How about… taking another bite to try?
“Just a bite… just a small bite… Ow!”
Very quickly, the girl’s expression turned bitter. The moment her teeth came into contact with Feng Xia, a layer of dragon scales that looked like dead wood appeared under Feng Xia’s skin, causing her teeth to ache.
With a bitter expression, she climbed down from Feng Xia’s body. However, Zhu Youniang’s expression also became much more relaxed after that.
“Fortunately, the cold that Xia mentioned doesn’t make him taste bad…”
Thinking of this, the girl’s lips curled up slightly and her mood became happy again.
Not long after, the very bored Zhu Youniang looked around and then imitated Feng Xia and sat down beside him.
Feng Xia sat in the lotus position.
The young girl pressed her legs together and put her calves beneath her body. The hem of her skirt casually fluttered down and she sat there like an obedient child.
“Eh, strange, there seems to be something…”
Suddenly, the girl sniffed and looked into the distance in puzzlement.
Her gaze seemed to be able to penetrate the wall and see the mysterious ancient street that ran through the Thousand Autumn Valley.
However, confusion appeared in her eyes again. Her gaze swept around randomly, as if she could not find her target.
“Why does that smell seem to have disappeared again…”
Zhu Youniang shook her head, trying to find the source of the smell. However, in the end, her body went limp helplessly and she lay back on the ground as if she had no bones.
“I can’t find it—I give up!”
However, not long after, the girl got up again and sat upright. “No, no, I have to continue to become stronger. Otherwise, I won’t be able to kill Xia in the future…”
Unknowingly, the scene from a few days ago appeared in front of her eyes again.
Under the rampage of the imperial court’s experts, the sea of fire covered the sky and made the entire sky seem like it was collapsing. Even though her cultivation was in the Divine Power Realm, she was so weak in the face of it all.
Feng Xia, who was beside her, had his eyes closed tightly. Wounds kept appearing on the surface of his body and blood flowed everywhere before the wounds healed with difficulty.
That was him devouring the vast fire spiritual energy and turning it into his own power to open up his first Mystical Wheel secret realm.
Zhu Youniang, who was originally a black jade spider… hated those despicable flames.

Half a day later, Feng Xia woke up from his cultivation.
In his perception, he knew he could break through another realm at any time. However, at the last moment, Feng Xia still chose to take a breather.
Patriarch Chenhai had emphasized many times that the foundation was the most important thing of a divine being’s cultivation path. To a large extent, it would determine the future potential of a divine being!
In fact, during Patriarch Chenhai’s era, many people would choose to stay in the Inception Realm and carefully perfect their realm for a long time. Only when their Mystical Wheel secret realm was completely developed did they step into the next realm in one go.
Although it was tempting to immediately reach the Primal Core Realm and become the number one in Xuanwu Kingdom, I will become the rag-and-bone king in the future… ah, no, I will step into the Deity Realm and return to the Ancient Forsaken Land to save Patriarch Chenhai!
Feng Xia thought to himself.
In a short period of time, no enemies would come to his door. There was no need for him to break through immediately.
Therefore, he hoped to find out the secret of his strange Mystical Wheel as soon as possible.
“Hmm? What are the two of them doing here at this time?”
Suddenly, Feng Xia noticed two auras approaching and stopping outside Qionghua Courtyard. They seemed to be hesitating whether to knock on the door.
“I can see you. Come in directly,” Feng Xia said with a smile.
“Senior Feng is indeed powerful.”
Bitter laughter came from outside the courtyard. Then, the courtyard door was gently pushed open. Lei Shao and Liu Chuanyuan walked in one after another.
Feng Xia noticed that, compared to the training clothes or sturdy clothes that they usually wore, the two of them were dressed rather formally today.
They were wearing purple brocade robes with silver threads embroidered on the edges, with complicated patterns at the chest areas to symbolize their identities. Not only that, Lei Shao was holding a cloth bag with both hands.
“Senior Feng.”
Lei Shao bowed slightly to Feng Xia and said sincerely, “Liu Chuanyuan and I have something important to discuss with you at the Thousand Autumn Hall.”
“Alright. I don’t have anything to do anyway.”
Feng Xia agreed after some thought.
As the saying went, the path of cultivation had to be flexible.
In addition, he was talented… Alright, he did not really want to continue breaking through for the time being, so it was completely acceptable for him to slack off for three days, right?
“Please follow me.”
Lei Shao heaved a sigh of relief and turned to make way.
Although Feng Xia had been in the Thousand Autumn Valley for some time, this was the first time he had come to the Thousand Autumn Hall. This was the most important hall in the Thousand Autumn Valley. In the past, any major decisions related to the fate of the Thousand Autumn Valley were made in this magnificent hall.
The Thousand Autumn Hall was located at the highest point of the entire valley. Feng Xia stood in front of the majestic Thousand Autumn Hall and easily had an overview of the entire Thousand Autumn Valley.
Feng Xia suddenly realized that not too long ago, the old Sect Master of the Thousand Autumn Valley might have stood here and looked at the mountain gate that he had guarded for 120 years, and then made the most important decision of his life.
“Alright, we’re already here. What do you want to discuss?”
Walking into the Thousand Autumn Hall, Feng Xia looked around and grinned.
“Senior Feng.”
“Senior Feng.”
When Feng Xia turned around again, he saw both Lei Shao and Liu Chuanyuan kneeling on one knee in front of him. At some point, Lei Shao had opened his cloth bag. He held a large seal in his hand and raised it in front of Feng Xia.
“I’m Lei Shao, the current First Elder of the Thousand Autumn Valley. I’m the temporary Sect Master.”
“I’m Liu Chuanyuan, the current Sixth Elder of the Thousand Autumn Valley.”
The two of them spoke one after another with extremely respectful expressions. “We respectfully beseech Senior to take over the Thousand Autumn Seal and be our sect’s new Sect Master!”
Feng Xia was stunned.
He really did not expect that the two of them would invite him over with such intentions!
Given that the two of them happened to be blocking the entrance of the hall, it was obvious that if Feng Xia did not agree, they did not intend to move aside!
Feng Xia’s throat moved as an inexplicable emotion brewed in his chest. The two men did not move. They only lowered their heads and waited for Feng Xia to give them an answer.
Finally, they heard the young man speak.
“Thousand Autumn Valley, Thousand Autumn Hall, Thousand Autumn Bell, Thousand Autumn Seal… Is everything in the Thousand Autumn Valley named so casually?”
…
