Chapter 922 - 295: Xiubai’s Fate_5

Shen Xiubai said, "Xiubai would like to trouble Great Grandfather to ask someone to send a letter to Ah Die, asking him to find some time to come back."

"When Ah Die returns, let him and Ah Niang come to the Secret Realm to see Xiubai."

Looking up at the dim sky, a trace of imperceptible longing flashed in Shen Xiubai’s eyes.

"The time left for the Shen Family shouldn’t be much, right?"

"We can’t let our clan members live in such a desolate, incomplete world..."

Upon hearing this, all three felt a sudden tremor in their hearts.

Shen Chongming clenched his fist secretly, suddenly stood up, and was about to walk outside.

"Uncle..."

"Wait, Uncle will go and ask someone to bring your father back!"

Shen Chongming’s voice was choked with emotion as he left without looking back.

He could see Shen Xiubai’s longing for his father, Shen Chongxu, and now there’s nothing they can do to help Shen Xiubai with what he wants to accomplish, nor can they stop it.

If he can’t even fulfill this wish of seeing his father timely, Shen Chongming might as well slap himself twice.

Shen Chongming’s figure disappeared in the Five Elements Secret Realm, leaving Shen Wen’an and Shen Yuan to feel a deep sense of helplessness.

The father and son’s views are actually quite similar.

As elders of the family, if they can’t shield the younger generations from the storm and instead make them sacrifice for the family, it is undoubtedly a failure on the part of the elders.

"Xiubai, do you need anything else? Anything you need, just say it, Third Master will do everything possible to help you find it."

Feeling suffocated, Shen Wen’an spoke in a sinking voice.

Shen Xiubai was about to shake his head, but after a slight contemplation, he hesitated and said, "The essence of the Five Elements Secret Realm was secretly extracted by Xiubai using a Secret Technique from the Dao Source of Yangnao Land."

"This origin is still very fragile, if we could refine some extremely dense Heavenly or Earthly energy, or higher-level energy into the Secret Realm, it should allow the secret realm’s essence to rapidly grow."

"The expansion of the Secret Realm’s essence can also enhance the concentration of Spiritual Qi throughout the secret realm, and subsequently, some Heavenly and Earthly Treasures or Spirit Medicines and rare treasures might emerge."

At this point, he suddenly smiled and looked at Shen Wen’an, "Grandfather shouldn’t worry about this."

"In the future, when the Shen Family establishes itself firmly in the Five Elements Secret Realm, it can gradually improve by plundering the essence of other worlds and Dao Source Secret Realms."

After hearing this, Shen Yuan also suppressed the sadness in his heart.

"Child, the things you want, Great Grandfather and your Third Grandfather mostly do not understand."

"Here’s what we’ll do... Later, Great Grandfather will bring you the family’s treasury and the items from the third floor of the Black Water Pavilion."

"Use what you can directly, and those you can’t... just store them somewhere."

The family will eventually move in, and it’s quite alright to put those accumulated treasures in ahead of time.

Shen Wen’an also nodded, and after a slight mental movement suddenly said, "Grandfather actually has something good, see if it’s of use."

As he spoke, a flash of light appeared in his hand, directly retrieving a Golden Crow Head from his Storage Bag.

At the moment the Golden Crow Head appeared, an extremely terrifying pressure mixed with a scorching aura instantly rushed in!

Shen Yuan and Shen Xiubai were both startled, their mouths wide open at the sudden appearance of the object.

"This is... What kind of fierce bird’s head is this, for its aura to be so terrifying!?"

Shen Yuan’s pupils narrowed slightly, unable to stop murmuring.

Shen Xiubai, amidst his shock, had a glint in his eyes as he stared intently at the Golden Crow Head.

He could sense that a high-level special energy was contained within this massive head.

"This is the head of a Three-legged Golden Crow, discovered by a son at the magma lake bottom of Flame Lake City."

Shen Wen’an explained, "The Fire Phoenix said that the Three-legged Golden Crow is a pure-blooded Divine Beast, and the energy contained within the head might meet Xiubai’s requirements."

Shen Xiubai nodded, "This Golden Crow Head is indeed a good thing."

"Seeing such Divine Beast flesh, Xiubai has a new idea."

"Grandfather, do you have other uses for this item?"

Shen Wen’an hesitated upon hearing this.

"The Fire Phoenix said that using Golden Crow flesh for Alchemy can open the veins for the Shen family’s younger generations, giving them a certain chance to obtain the Golden Crow bloodline..."

"Plus its bones and Golden Crow Beak, which also seem to have significant uses."

"Look, use it wisely—if you can save some, that’s best; if you can’t, or feel refining it into the Secret Realm holds greater value than Alchemy and Artifact Refining, then refine it all into the Secret Realm."

For the entire family, whether it’s Alchemy or Artifact Refining.

This Golden Crow Head will only benefit a few.

If Shen Xiubai incorporates it into the Secret Realm, it could benefit the entire family, which would naturally be better.

Shen Xiubai nodded happily, "Grandfather, rest assured, Xiubai will certainly find a way to maximize its value."

The three chatted for a while longer, and Shen Yuan and Shen Wen’an reluctantly left the Five Elements Secret Realm.

Father and son descended from the back mountain, where Shen Yuan went straight to the Black Water Pavilion, preparing to bring Shen Xiubai the rest of the third-floor items for him to examine.

Shen Wen’an initially planned to discuss the Golden Crow Head with him, but now that the head is given to Shen Xiubai, there’s no need to discuss it.

The father and son separated, and when Shen Wen’an returned to his courtyard, he saw a slender figure cloaked in phoenix feathers standing in the courtyard.

"What brings you here so early?"

Looking at the Fire Phoenix, Shen Wen’an frowned.

Seeing him return, the Fire Phoenix hurriedly came up to question, "Did you forget, sir?"

Shen Wen’an was stunned, "What?"

"Golden Crow Eye."

"You promised to give me one, don’t go back on your word."

Facing the gaze of the young girl, Shen Wen’an dared not meet it.
