1743 Side Story 2: Prime Master Yin Mingjue Pursues His Wife (12)
Ever since Yu Huang became the Phoenix Great Dao, the cultivation world had used the words ‘Phoenix Creator’ and ‘Supreme Lord’ to address her respectfully. As for Yu Huang’s name, no one dared to address her by it directly. The civilians only knew that the Great Dao of the three thousand worlds was the Phoenix Great Dao and that the current Yin Clan was the home of the Phoenix Great Dao, but no one knew that the Phoenix Great Dao was actually called Yu Huang.
Xu Qingtian naturally didn’t know either.
If he knew that the beautiful woman sitting in front of him was the Phoenix Great Dao, he probably would have fainted on the spot.
Although he didn’t know the other party’s true identity, Xu Qingtian still felt uneasy after knowing that Yu Huang was from the Yin Clan. He grabbed his pants and asked nervously, “Lord, why did you call me over?”
Yu Huang suppressed her longing and heartache.
She smiled as she told Xu Qingtian, “Your performance during the beast form test ceremony today was very eye-catching. Do you know what a Super Beast form means?”
Although Xu Qingtian had never come into contact with the cultivation world or Beast Tamers, they had learned general knowledge about beast forms when they were in primary school.
Xu Qingtian naturally knew how rare a Super Beast form was.
“Super Beast Forms have unlimited potential and are the beast form of top powerhouses. I heard from my teacher that Beast Tamers who have awakened their Super Beast Forms are faster than others in terms of cultivation talent and cultivation speed. They have a higher chance of becoming Prime Masters, Prime Emperors, or even… Divine Masters.”
After saying that, Xu Qingtian asked Yu Huang humbly, “I wonder if my understanding is right?”
“You’re right.” Yu Huang nodded in agreement.
Yu Huang told Xu Qingtian, “In the past 15 years, very few people in the Divine Moon Empire have been able to awaken the Super Beast form. You are the only Beast Tamer in the past 15 years to have awakened your Super Beast form. Before this, only the sons of the Sky Dragon Divine Master and the Phoenix Divine Master, the Netherworld Phoenixes, had awakened their Super Beast form. The moment they awakened their beast form, they were Grand Masters. However, they were all children of Divine Masters. As for you, you are a civilian, so it was very impressive for you to awaken your Super Beast form.”
Upon hearing Yu Huang’s explanation, Xu Qingtian truly felt how rare a Super Beast form was.
“Why did Madam Yu Huang call me over today?” Xu Qingtian guessed that Yu Huang took the initiative to look for him today to invite him to join the Yin Clan.
He had heard that cultivation major families would try their best to recruit good seedlings into their families and take them in as disciples to strengthen themselves.
However, Yu Huang shook her head and said, “I looked for you today to give you a gift.” Yu Huang handed a glowing jade pendant to Xu Qingtian. After Xu Qingtian took it with both hands, he asked, “What is this?”
“It’s a cultivation technique.”
Xu Qingtian was a little surprised. “You…”
Xu Qingtian was puzzled. “Why are you giving me a cultivation technique for no reason?”
“For no reason…” As Yu Huang pondered over these words, she felt extremely bitter.
How could there be no relation between them?
“This is the Blazing Moon Art. It’s a cultivation technique created by Prime Master Yin Mingjue. This cultivation technique is now a cultivation technique that the disciples of the Yin Clan must cultivate. I gave it to you because I sincerely want to invite you to join the Yin Clan. Xu Qingtian, you’re someone the Yin Clan values very much.”
Yu Huang said the last sentence in a meaningful tone.
Xu Qingtian had a feeling that Yu Huang was implying something.
To him, the Blazing Moon Art wasn’t a gift, but a hot potato.
Accepting this thing meant that he would be inextricably related to the Yin Clan.
However, he had yet to truly set foot in the cultivation world and knew nothing about it, so he naturally couldn’t join the Yin Clan so rashly.
Xu Qingtian quickly calmed down.
He pushed the jade pendant in front of Yu Huang with a calm expression as he said indifferently, “Thank you for thinking so highly of me, Lord, but please forgive me for not accepting this precious gift. If I really need the Yin Clan’s recognition and help, I will naturally join the Yin Clan according to the standard protocol.”
“I can’t touch things that don’t belong to me.”
Yu Huang smiled.
“Xu Qingtian, we’ll meet again.” With that, Yu Huang put away the jade pendant.
Xu Qingtian stood up and left.
When they arrived in the far north, Yu Huang was the first to alight from the aeroplane. Then, the passengers in cabin 1 alighted, followed by cabin 2, and then cabin 3. She sat in the first section of the maglev train heading to the Central Pagoda. In the entire carriage, there was only her as the passenger and two attendants.
Yu Huang stared at the young man who was shuttling through the crowd with his bag on his back. When she noticed a middle-aged man following behind the young man, Yu Huang was suddenly stunned.
That was…

After finding a seat, Mr. Dong saw that Xu Qingtian had been staring out the window in a daze, so he picked up Xu Qingtian’s cup and stood up as he said, “Eldest Young Master, take a seat. I’ll get you a cup of water.”
Xu Qingtian nodded.
Mr. Dong went to the drinking station between Car 2 and Car 1. After he filled a cup of water, he was lowering his head to twist the cap when he suddenly heard an unfamiliar but charming female voice ask, “Sir, is this your first time coming to the Central Pagoda?”
After Mr. Dong turned around in surprise, he saw a beautiful face.
As he stared at the woman’s face, Mr. Dong’s heart suddenly skipped a beat.
He subconsciously opened his mouth to shout out a name, but then he swallowed his words.
He wanted to shout—
Jiujiu.
But even he didn’t know who Jiujiu was.
Mr. Dong smiled and touched his head as he said, “Yes.” Thanks to Xu Qingtian, he could also come to the Central Pagoda to take a look.
“You look quite young. How old are you this year?”
Mr. Dong was stunned for a moment before saying, “38.”
38.
Yu Huang’s heart ached for some reason.
38 years ago was the year Yu Donghai led all the Yin Clan clansmen to sacrifice their souls to help Lin Jiansheng become a Purifying Spirit God.
When Mr. Dong noticed that the beautiful woman’s eyes were suddenly filled with tears, he immediately felt helpless. “You…” Mr. Dong reached into his sack to find a tissue or a handkerchief to wipe Yu Huang’s tears, but he didn’t find anything.
“Miss, don’t cry. What’s wrong?” Mr. Dong asked thoughtfully, “Do I look like some family member of yours?” That family member might have passed away.
Other than that, Mr. Dong couldn’t think of any other possibility.
After Yu Huang turned around and wiped her tears, she turned back around and smiled at Mr. Dong as she said, “I’m very happy.”
“Uh… that’s good.” But shouldn’t she smile if she was happy?
Not knowing what to say, Mr. Dong tugged at his pants uneasily.
Seeing that Mr. Dong hadn’t returned for a long time, Xu Qingtian was worried and ran over to check on the situation. When he saw Yu Huang and Mr. Dong standing together, Xu Qingtian was stunned at first, then he became vigilant. Xu Qingtian grabbed Mr. Dong’s arm and lowered his eyes to look at Yu Huang as he asked, “I wonder why Madam Yu Huang is looking for Mr. Dong?”
Mr. Dong asked Xu Qingtian, “Young Master, do you know this lady?”
Xu Qingtian told Mr. Dong, “She’s from the Yin Clan.” Afraid that Mr. Dong didn’t know the Yin Clan’s background, he explained concisely, “The Yin Clan is a major cultivation family.”
Mr. Dong looked at Yu Huang with respect and nervousness. “So she’s a Beast Tamer.”
Mr. Dong hoped that Xu Qingtian would have a smoother path in the future, so he told Yu Huang in a boastful tone, “Lord, my young master is actually also a Beast Tamer, but he has yet to officially start his cultivation path and has just passed this year’s Beast Tamer Awakening Test. My young master was born into a civilian family. In the future, when he enters the cultivation world, he will be an amateur. Lord, if you meet my young master in the future, please guide him.”
Yu Huang looked at Mr. Dong with a complicated expression.
In both lives, he had always devoted himself to his master wholeheartedly.
Father.
Yu Huang nodded vigorously. “Alright, I will.”
Xu Qingtian frowned at Yu Huang. After confirming that Yu Huang had no ill intentions towards Mr. Dong, he felt puzzled. What was so special about Mr. Dong that Madam Yu Huang treated him so differently?
“Mr. Dong.” Yu Huang calling him Mr. Dong made him feel flattered.
After Yu Huang looked at her compartment, she told Mr. Dong, “Mr. Dong, I’m considered a famous person in the cultivation world. Young Master Xu doesn’t know anything about the cultivation world, so since we met today, why don’t you guys go to my car and chat with me? I can tell you guys about the cultivation world.”
Mr. Dong couldn’t ask for more.
“Then I’ll have to disturb you, Madam Yu Huang.” Mr. Dong squeezed Xu Qingtian hard and pulled him to Yu Huang’s compartment.
