"So this sword has an extraordinary origin. Thank you," Wu Tian said.

"No, no, no!" Hearing Wu Tian’s words, the Great Heavenly King of Dogs grew alarmed and flustered. "Master, how can you thank me? That sets my heart ill at ease!"

"Alright," Wu Tian said, not quite understanding the Great Heavenly King of Dogs’ thinking. Does he just want to be a pet forever? Isn’t it better to rule a territory of your own?

Having obtained this sword, Wu Tian thought he should also teach the Great Heavenly King of Dogs a few things. For the moment, however, he couldn’t decide what to teach.

"It’s getting late, Master. You should stay here and rest," the Great Heavenly King of Dogs suddenly offered with great enthusiasm. "My mountain has many deep caves and no shortage of beautiful female dogs. The Dog Clan’s delicacies are also numerous. I can..."

Hearing this, Wu Tian’s face darkened, and he immediately cut off the Great Heavenly King of Dogs’ excited rambling. "Let’s skip that. I have a wife and a daughter, and I need to get back to them."

"Ah?" The Great Heavenly King of Dogs was stunned. My Master already has a Lady? And a Young Mistress? Heavens, how is this possible? I remember Master didn’t even end up with the Empress back then. How could there be a woman more outstanding than the Empress? That’s utterly impossible!

"I’ll introduce you when there’s a chance." After saying that, Wu Tian left.

The Great Heavenly King of Dogs personally escorted Wu Tian down the mountain, remaining utterly reverent the entire way. Only after Wu Tian had left with Yuwen Nuo did he say with envy, "That young man is so fortunate to be able to follow the Master."

The Great Heavenly King of Dogs was incredibly envious.

After handling some affairs, Kongcheng, the Clan Leader of the Dog Clan, heard the news and immediately rushed over.

"Father, I heard that you gave special treatment to a guest today. Who could possibly be so important as to require your personal attention?" Kongcheng asked, very curious.

"He..." The Great Heavenly King of Dogs gazed toward the heavens, his eyes filled with reverence as he smiled. "He is my Master. He is the true living legend of this age. He was in the past, and he will be in the future."

Kongcheng was speechless. He couldn’t believe it. Has my perpetually serious father suddenly learned how to tell jokes?

Afterward, Wu Tian set off on the return journey with Yuwen Nuo. Along the way, Yuwen Nuo stared at Wu Tian’s back, his expression a mixture of respect and astonishment.

The Human and Beast Clans have a deeply hostile relationship. Yet this gentleman can intimidate the Dog Clan and make the Great Heavenly King of Dogs revere him like a Heavenly God! It’s truly inconceivable. At the same time, will he help me rescue my mother consort?

"Don’t overthink it," Wu Tian said. He walked ahead of Yuwen Nuo but seemed to sense his thoughts, speaking profoundly without turning back. "Rest assured, your mother consort will be fine. Join my Heavenless Gate, and you can obtain supreme treasures and Divine Skills."

According to the Investiture of the Gods, the most suitable cultivation technique for Yuwen Nuo is the Divine Fire Avatar, and his supreme treasures are Xuanyuan Sword Qi and Kunlun Mirror Light! This is what makes me suspicious. Why not simply the Xuanyuan Sword and the Kunlun Mirror? Why specify Sword Qi and Mirror Light? Wu Tian hadn’t yet figured this out and was pondering the matter.

Upon returning to Duke Guang’s Mansion in Xiuyuan Country, the little girl immediately ran up to Wu Tian, demanding to be held.

Wu Tian picked her up, and she told him that someone was waiting for him in the study.

Holding the little girl, Wu Tian went to the study and found Yang Ziwei sitting there quietly, clad in his usual blue robe.

"What brings you here?" Wu Tian asked.

Wu Tian felt he was being wronged. Demanding an explanation from me? What kind of foolishness is this? Xiao Tiandi died of his own accord. What does that have to do with me? Why did he die? All because of his name! His original name was Xiao Yan. Wasn’t that good enough? No, he just had to change it to Xiao Tiandi! Heavenly Emperor! Heavenly Emperor! Heavenly Emperor! How could an ordinary person possibly have the fortune to bear those two words?

Yang Ziwei was furious—not at Wu Tian, of course, but at Xiao Shimin. Doesn’t he know I have something important to ask of Wu Tian? Why is he here wasting his time? Is his son’s death more important than my business?!

"Shut up." Yang Ziwei hadn’t expected Xiao Shimin to invoke his name, and his anger flared.

Only then did Xiao Shimin see clearly who it was. He panicked when he realized it was Yang Ziwei. "Master Yang, it’s you! How could you..."

"What about ’how could you’?! What I do is none of your damn business!" Yang Ziwei had no intention of saving the man’s face and cursed loudly. "The talent of a Qilin, who could conquer the world? Don’t make me laugh! You begged me to say that! So what if your son is dead? He was a good-for-nothing anyway! Terrible talent, terrible character, terrible everything! For someone like that, death is just death. What more do you want?"

His voice boomed, carrying through all the surrounding streets.

Hearing the townsfolk in the surrounding streets begin to murmur at Master Yang’s words, Xiao Shimin suddenly felt deeply embarrassed. He lowered his voice, "Master Yang, my son just died... C-could you be a bit more tactful?"

"To hell with being tactful! He was a worthless bum, and you expect people not to say it? I’m telling you, get lost!" Yang Ziwei roared, giving Xiao Shimin absolutely no face. Because of some past collaborations, he might have normally given Xiao Shimin some face. But now, he had a far more important matter that required Wu Tian’s help. As for Xiao Shimin? He could go to hell for all he cared!

The townsfolk began to whisper among themselves, their voices filled with contempt.

"Xiao Shimin? The Monarch of the Heavenly King Country? How can he be so shameless?"

"Exactly! His son was a good-for-nothing who disgraced the Human Clan. He’s dead, so let him be dead. Why is he still demanding justice? This is ridiculous!"

"It really is!"

"I... I have other matters to attend to. I’ll be taking my leave." Feeling utterly humiliated, Xiao Shimin could only swallow his immense anger, grit his teeth, and flee in disgrace.
