Not to mention others, even Su Wei’er herself blushed with her heart pounding. She thought that Chu Xun had fallen in love with her.
Su Wei’er avoided Chu Xun’s eyes, but she was thinking wildly.
“Chu Xun, the Sacred Maiden of our race can marry someone, but many things have to be taken into consideration because of her special identity. Her marriage is not simply a matter of marrying someone but an event with all kinds of things needed to be taken care of. At least, the Queen of Elves must agree.” Su Lianyi explained.
Chu Xun nodded slightly and then fell silent, thinking, “The Sacred Maiden’s marriage turns out to be so complicated.”
Thinking that Chu Xun was unhappy, Su Lianyi said hurriedly, “Chu Xun, as long as you can rescue the Queen of Elves, she will probably allow you to marry the Sacred Maiden.”
“Marry the Sacred Maiden to me?” Chu Xun widened his eyes with shock.
Gao Mohan and his companions looked at each other.
Feeling strange about Chu Xun’s reaction, Su Lianyi asked tentatively, “Didn’t you ask about this for the sake of marrying the Sacred Maiden?”
“Aunt.” Su Wei’er’s face turned red. “Who will say such a thing directly?” she thought.
“You’ve misunderstood me.” Chu Xun glanced at the Flaming Qilin and said, “I asked about it for someone else.”
“Someone else?” Everyone looked at the Flaming Qilin.
The Flaming Qilin was slightly stunned. Fortunately, he had always been brazen, so he acted as if nothing had happened, asking, “Why are you all staring at me?”
Gao Mohan and his companions looked at him with disdain.
“Did you hear it clearly, Qilin? If you want to marry the Sacred Maiden, you have to get the permission of the Queen of Elves. Compared to your happiness, the Sacred Maiden, and the thing that I can rescue the Queen of Elves, the conditions I offered earlier are nothing,” Chu Xun said to the Flaming Qilin through his divine sense.
The Flaming Qilin glared at Chu Xun, realizing that this was Chu Xun’s scheme.
“You’re looting,” the Flaming Qilin couldn’t help roaring.
Everyone looked at the Flaming Qilin strangely and thought, “What is this guy doing?”
Chu Xun, who didn’t bother to communicate with him through his divine sense, said directly, “Can you behave like a real man, Qilin? Since you like the Sacred Maiden, you should show me your sincerity.”
After saying that, Chu Xun winked at Gao Mohan and his companions. Being smart, these people immediately realized that Chu Xun was probably about to entrap the Flaming Qilin. And they were happy to cooperate with him.
“Qilin, it turns out that you like the Sacred Maiden. No wonder you are more anxious than anyone about the Sacred Maiden’s affairs. I support your idea of craving for the one you’re not worthy of,” Gao Mohan shouted with his eyes wide open deliberately.
“Mr. Gao, you can’t speak that way. Qilin is a magical beast. He is suitable for the Sacred Maiden,” Qiu Yunping joked.
“In fact, there’s nothing wrong with drooling over the one you’re not worthy of. At least, it proves that Qilin has a will to make progress,” Shi Yifei added.
The face of Su Wei’er, the Sacred Maiden, turned bloody red. She was simple, but she was not stupid. How could she not feel the Flaming Qilin’s deep affection for her? And Su Lianyi had also indirectly said that the Flaming Qilin matched her quite well. In fact, she liked that man a little too.
The Flaming Qilin’s handsome face turned scarlet.
“What a pity!” Chu Xun said with some regret.
“Pity for what, Mr. Chu?” Gao Mohan asked.
“I want to rescue the Queen of Elves, but I need Qilin’s help. Unfortunately, he is unwilling to help me.” Chu Xun spread his hands and continued, “I have the will, but I’m not strong enough.”
“Ah? He is even unwilling to help you. It proves that our guess is wrong. Qilin doesn’t like the Sacred Maiden,” Gao Mohan said and shook his head.
“I think so. If he really likes the Sacred Maiden, he will try his best to rescue the Queen of Elves. If I were him, I would not hesitate to sacrifice my life.” Shi Yifei looked at the Flaming Qilin with disdain.
“Qilin, you’re a real man. You want to get what you desire by doing nothing. You don’t want to sacrifice anything, but you want to get a wife. Don’t blame me for looking down upon you.” Weng Xiong shook his head in a way of despising the Flaming Qilin.
The Sacred Maiden stared at the Flaming Qilin, and her red face was gradually turning pale.
Su Lianyi glanced at the Flaming Qilin and shook her head in disappointment. She had thought that the Flaming Qilin and Su Wei’er would be a perfect match, but now she realized that she had been too idealistic.
The Flaming Qilin could ignore others’ attitudes. But when he saw that the Sacred Maiden’s eyes were becoming indifferent, he became anxious and shouted, “It’s not that I’m unwilling, but that Chu the Devil is taking advantage of my bad situation. He wants a drop of True Blood from my heart and…”
He stopped at this point. He couldn’t mention the inheritance anymore. This was a priceless treasure. If the information was leaked, he would be the target of public envy and everyone would covet it. A moving treasure vault would arouse the greed of so many people. Last time, he had accidentally said it when he was a little too complacent. Then, Chu the Devil was attracted and wanted to get it.
“It’s just a drop of True Blood from your heart, and then you made such a fuss as if I would take your life.” Chu Xun said disdainfully, “Besides, I want the True Blood because I wish to rescue the Queen of Elves. This is for your good. Do you think you can marry the Sacred Maiden without the permission of Her Grace the Queen?”
Su Wei’er’s look at the Flaming Qilin had turned indifferent. Looking at Chu Xun, she said, “Will the True Blood from my heart work?”
Shocked, the Flaming Qilin cursed wildly in his head, “Chu Xun, you’re a scheming man! You do whatever it takes to get what you want. You use open and secret means and other tricks. I’m even… short of words to describe who you really are.”
“Dear Sacred Maiden, it’s not that I am unwilling, but that this bastard is trying to make me a bad guy with false proof. You don’t know how greedy he is. I…”
“Qilin, thank you for your help to the Elf race during this period of time. The Elf race will repay you with doubled rewards in the future.” Su Wei’er interrupted the Flaming Qilin and looked at Chu Xun, waiting for his answer.
“Only the True Blood from the heart of a magical beast works,” Chu Xun shook his head and said.
“Okay, I agree!” The Flaming Qilin glared at Chu Xun and then beckoned him to go aside to talk.
Chu Xun smiled and walked to the side with the Flaming Qilin.

“You sinister man! You scheming demon!” The Flaming Qilin was so angry that fire came out of his nostrils.
“If you’re here to swear at me, there’s nothing to talk about. Bye-bye!” Chu Xun turned around, ready to leave.
The Flaming Qilin grabbed Chu Xun and said with a gloomy face, “Okay, I promise you that I’ll give you a drop of True Blood so that you can have a look at the inheritance of our Qilin race.”
“You’ve thought it through?” Chu Xun snickered. He had been sure that the Flaming Qilin would agree. To put it bluntly, he would not let his prey off.
Although this action was a little immoral, Chu Xun had deeply realized his weakness through this matter—his cultivation was so low that he felt it so hard to deal with a wisp of Fifth Fiend Lord’s soul.
Therefore, he had to work out all ways to make himself strong because the Subterranean Devils Clan watched him with hostility. He wondered if there were any other tricks left behind by the Fifth Fiend Lord? He must always be on guard for fear of the appearance of the Subterranean Devils Clan.
“Can I exchange the second request with a secret technique?” asked the Flaming Qilin.
“What kind of secret technique?” Chu Xun asked curiously.
“The Mystics of the Roc and Leviathan,” the Flaming Qilin answered.
Chu Xun looked expressionless, but he was astonished. The Mystics of the Roc and Leviathan was among the top 10 precious techniques in the world of cultivation, and he had searched for it for hundreds of years but could not find it.
“Are you talking about the secret technique of the ancient fierce beasts—Roc race?” Chu Xun’s eyes were full of yearning.
“That’s right,” the Flaming Qilin said and nodded.
“The roc that can cause waves that are as high as 1,500km with its wings and soar up to the height of 4,500 km,” Chu Xun couldn’t help thinking.
Zhuangzi wrote about the rock (Kun Peng) in his essay A Happy Excursion: “In the northern ocean, there is a fish, called the Kun. I do not know how many thousand kilometers it is in size. When it turns into a bird, it is called the Peng. I do not know how many thousand kilometers its back is in breadth. When it flaps its wings and flies, its wings can obscure the sky like clouds.”
Some called it an ancient magical bird, while others called it a fierce beast. Chu Xun preferred to believe that it was a fierce beast because he had learned about the lethality of the Mystics of the Roc and Leviathan in an unofficial history book—it was quite terrifying.
Unexpectedly, now he accidentally got the Mystics of the Roc and Leviathan, which he had been searching for for hundreds of years but couldn’t get any clues.
“Agree or not? Give me your word.” The Flaming Qilin saw that Chu Xun felt uncertain for a while, frowned for a few moments, and smirked for a short time, so he couldn’t help worrying if he was willing.
“Tell me the truth. How did you get the Mystics of the Roc and Leviathan?” Chu Xun asked.
“I don’t know. It is in my inheritance, but it is not suitable for the Qilin race to cultivate,” the Flaming Qilin said.
Chu Xun’s eyes lit up, staring at the Flaming Qilin’s head with strong yearning. “What kind of treasures are in it?”
The Flaming Qilin’s hair stood on end when he saw Chu Xun’s stare because it seemed to show that the man wanted to open his head and see what was inside.
“Tell me the truth. Is there any other secret techniques in your inheritance?” Chu Xun asked.
“Do you think secret techniques can be got easily? Apart from the Mystics of the Roc and Leviathan, I only have the secret technique of the Qilin race in my inheritance,” the Flaming Qilin couldn’t help shouting angrily.
“Qilin Secret Technique?” Honestly, Chu Xun now behaved like a cheeky man.
“Don’t even think about getting our race’s secret technique. It has the Forbidden Area Installation, and I can’t even see it now. If it is forcefully opened, it will be destroyed,” the Flaming Qilin said.
“Look how mean you are! I’m just asking a question,” Chu Xun said with a smile. It was never too late to enjoy something nice. No matter whether what the Flaming Qilin said was true or not, he must get the Mystics of the Roc and Leviathan first. As for the rest, he would take it slow.
The Flaming Qilin fumed. If the Mystics of the Roc and Leviathan was leaked, the whole earth, including the East and the West and even those secluded old demons, would be restless. But Chu Xun still accused him of being mean!
“Okay, deal,” Chu Xun said.
“We can make a deal, but I have a condition,” the Flaming Qilin said.
“What is it?”
“You bastard caused the Sacred Maiden to misunderstand me, so you have to clear up her misunderstanding of me.”
“No problem,” Chu Xun agreed immediately. He had thought it was something hard to do, but it was, in fact, a trivial matter. When he threatened the Flaming Qilin, he had already planned everything.
“I’ll teach you the Mystics of the Roc and Leviathan first,” the Flaming Qilin said.
Chu Xun nodded slightly and relaxed.
The Flaming Qilin pressed the spot between Chu Xun’s eyebrows with one finger, transmitting a series of obscure symbols into his brain.
Chu Xun was a little absent-minded. Those symbols turned into a roc after they entered his brain.
“Is it the roc?” he wondered.

A terrifying big red fish with wings kept performing some kind of martial skill.
“Done.” The Flaming Qilin withdrew his hand angrily.
Chu Xun opened his eyes. If it were not for the wrong time, he would almost hastily begin to practice the Mystics of the Roc and Leviathan now.
“I’ve taught you the Mystics of the Roc and Leviathan, but I’ll think about giving you the True Blood after you change the Sacred Maiden’s attitude toward me.” The Flaming Qilin grew cautious. To be exact, he was afraid of falling into Chu Xun’s trap again.
“No problem,” Chu Xun said with a smile.
