System: After the fortune telling, my cultivation level skyrocketed.

"Don't you even consider the occasion?" Chen Xuan scrutinized the young princess up close, clearly sensing a faint, unfamiliar aura emanating from Qing Tian Yu'er. At the same time, the blue dress she wore seemed quite extraordinary, giving the impression that it contained a powerful energy that could be unleashed instantly.

Such a sudden scene unfolded right before their eyes, leaving Tianxing and Zimo dumbfounded.

This time, they came to the Qingtian Marquis's mansion with their elders to attend the young princess's coming-of-age ceremony and welcoming banquet, and naturally they saw the much-discussed Qingtian Yu'er at the gathering.

Previously, the unparalleled genius princess, who had been praised by various sect leaders and even offered to be introduced to their sects, now, upon seeing her again, not only had she lost that aura of a natural superior, but instead, she acted like a lovesick fool, completely disregarding the presence of outsiders, and threw herself into Chen Xuan's arms, adopting a petite and dependent posture.

The visual impact left Zi Mo and Tian Xing stunned.

"I don't care, you big bad guy, do you know how much I missed you these past three days in the clan territory?" Qing Tian Yu'er hugged Chen Xuan's neck tightly, her jade-like cheeks rubbing affectionately against his face. "I don't know any of those old men. When they saw me, they gave me all sorts of weird stuff to drink and even asked me to get a spirit beast."

As core disciples of the four major academies, Zi Mo and Tian Xing's legends about this little princess are recorded and circulated within the sect.

The "random stuff" she mentioned drinking must have been genuine precious medicines that the immortals and wandering immortals of the Azure Sky Clan had spent countless hours scavenging from the world.

"Oh? You've taken in a spirit beast?" Chen Xuan asked, putting the reluctant Qing Tian Yu'er down.

“Yes, look.” Seeing that Chen Xuan wanted to see, Qing Tian Yu’er rolled up her water sleeves.

Everyone saw a bright red mark on Qing Tianyu'er's fair and jade-like forearm.

"I named it Azure Flame."

As Qing Tianyu spoke, she lowered her head and said to the mark on her arm, "Qingyan, come out and meet the big bad guy."

As soon as the words fell, everyone clearly saw the skin on Qing Tian Yu'er's arm slowly twist at the mark, and then streams of blood-red flames spread towards the mark. Then, a small snake with blood-red flames burning all over its body and two horns on its head slowly emerged from the core of the mark, its small eyes with blue vertical pupils looking around timidly.

Chen Xuan didn't know much about the ancient species of this world, and he had no idea what rank or bloodline this spirit beast, which was obtained by high-ranking rogue immortals and earth immortals of the Qingtian Clan, was.

However, Chen Xuan didn't recognize him, but Zi Mo and Tian Xing recognized him at a glance.

The two gasped in shock, exclaiming in unison, "This is actually a juvenile Fire Dragon Serpent?"

"Such a gesture could only be afforded by a royal clan to their next generation of geniuses, right?" Tianxing said, looking at the little snake on Qingtian Yu'er's arm with great envy.

"Although it is only in its infancy, the strength it can unleash in an instant is already comparable to that of a Divine Demon Body Refinement cultivator in the Myriad Manifestations Realm. Moreover, because it has an ancient bloodline, its potential is immense. Especially with the backing of an ancient tribe like the Azure Sky Clan, its growth rate will be astonishing." Zi Mo is usually calm, but today, seeing the divine beast that can only be described in the ancient book "Record of Strange Beasts" with his own eyes, he couldn't help but sigh.

When Chen Xuan and Tian Xing came out together, Bai Li had already transformed into a small black snake and wrapped around Chen Xuan's wrist.

At this moment, upon seeing her fellow clansmen, Bai Li curiously bent over, her dark eyes darting around with interest, and even took the initiative to greet the fire dragon-snake.

"Hi, hello there, little one." Although Bai Li possesses the bloodline of the ancient Illusionary Dragon and has the inner core of the Evil Dragon Red Phoenix within her body, her bloodline is ultimately only a branch, and because she carries the inner core of the Evil Dragon, her aura is somewhat mixed.

When a similar aura appeared and took the initiative to greet it, the juvenile Fire Dragon-Snake merely turned its head to glance at Bai Li, who had transformed into a small black snake, flicked its tongue, and then ignored her.

Whether it's a demon beast, a divine beast, or a ferocious beast, what matters is bloodline.

It's only natural that the Fire Dragon and Serpent wouldn't consider Bai Li's mixed bloodline.

"Hmph, not very old, but quite the temper." Bai Li, having been given the cold shoulder, snorted and withdrew her hand from Chen Xuan's wrist, ignoring it completely.

"Hehe, Bai Li, why are you arguing with a child about this?" Qing Tian Yu'er had been severely reprimanded by Bai Li when she was in the Bei Ming Immortal Mansion. She knew very well Bai Li's position in Chen Xuan's heart, and even felt that she was inferior to him. How could she possibly look at Bai Li with the same eyes as a tool or spirit beast?

"When I got the Azure Flame, it hadn't even hatched yet. It didn't understand many things and just acted instinctively towards others, hehe," Qing Tian Yu'er explained to Chen Xuan.

Upon seeing this, Tianxing and Zimo were both stunned, and they couldn't help but glance at Bai Li, who was quietly wrapped around Chen Xuan's wrist.

Compared to Tianxing and the other two's curiosity, and Bai Li's lack of interest, Chen Xuan was full of curiosity about this ancient divine beast he had never seen before.

Seeing Qing Tianyu extend her arm, Chen Xuan lowered his head and said with a smile, "Little one, come here, let me touch it."

"His-"

When the Fire Dragon-Snake saw that someone other than its master wanted to touch it, it immediately flicked its tongue, arched its body, opened its mouth to reveal its inverted fangs, and even the dark red scales all over its body were now burning with fire.

Seeing this scene unfold before her eyes, Qing Tianyu'er, who had been extremely happy and smug, suddenly turned pale.

She flicked two fingers of her right hand and struck the Fire Dragon Serpent on the head, scolding, "How dare you bare your teeth and be fierce at this big bad guy?"

With a flick on the head, the raging fire around the little snake was extinguished, and its arched body lay down, as quiet as a child, turning back to look at its master, Qing Tian Yu'er, with a pitiful and aggrieved expression.

"If you dare to treat him like that again, I'll stew you." Qing Tian Yu'er was, after all, a creature of this world, and her understanding of spirit beasts was completely different from Chen Xuan's.

In her view, it was just a spirit beast. Even if it possessed ancient blood, if it was disobedient and dared to disobey its master, then there was no need to keep it.

Qing Tianyu'er's words were utterly merciless. In her heart, to him, spirit beasts were nothing more than objects, things that were dispensable.

If it weren't for her father, mother, and ancestors strongly advising her, she wouldn't have kept a spirit beast.

"Yes, Master."

Having been severely reprimanded by its master, the Fire Dragon Serpent had no choice but to prostrate itself on its upper arm and respond to its master, Qing Tian Yu'er.

"Sigh, this newborn little guy doesn't understand anything. As its owner, you have to teach it so it will understand." Chen Xuan smiled at Qing Tian Yu'er, and then stretched out his palm towards the Calamity Fire Dragon Serpent.

Having just received a severe beating, the Fire Dragon Serpent had become incredibly intelligent. It realized that compared to the creature before it, it was nothing at all, and it was best to be obedient and docile.

Sure enough, when the Fire Dragon Snake saw Chen Xuan's hand reaching out, it not only dared not arch its body to make an attacking posture, but it also dared not spit out its tongue. Instead, after a moment, it obediently crawled along its master's arm and onto Chen Xuan's palm.
