Martial arts have become extinct worldwide, yet I am forced to have a large family.

Five days passed quietly.

While Yang Xian waited patiently in his little world.

Inside the secret realm, a group of people are braving the scorching air as they trek through mountains covered in volcanic ash.

"Jiang Yu, we've been looking for days, but we haven't even seen a trace of Yang... no, not even my brother-in-law."

Jiang Yan complained, tugging at the heavy gas mask on her face.

She now feels awkward even when she mentions the term "brother-in-law".

Beside him, the tall Jiang Hai plopped down on the scorching hot rock:

"Exactly. If you fell into a volcano like that, I reckon you'd be burned to ashes long ago, not even a bone fragment would be left."

"Is it really necessary to go to such lengths? We're just here to go through the motions. Who would believe that anyone could survive in a place like that?"

All three of them wore specially made heat-resistant protective suits and filter masks to protect themselves from the volcanic ash and toxic gases in the air.

Their month-long journey through the secret realm had long since ended, but in order to find the missing Yang Xian, they had no choice but to enter the secret realm once again.

Not only them, but several other military regions also sent search teams.

"It's just finding someone, what are you complaining about?"

Jiang Yu's voice came from behind the mask, sounding somewhat muffled, "My brother-in-law's contracted beasts haven't shown any abnormal reactions, which means he's still alive. The family sent us to find him, so just search carefully."

During their recent trip to the secret realm, not only did they fail to obtain the "Nine-Turn Life-Sustaining Lotus," but they also lost a single person.

This is an extremely serious dereliction of duty for the Jiang family.

If it weren't for my second sister, Jiang Mengyun, pleading for us and giving us a chance to redeem ourselves, we would have been in trouble.

I'm afraid we'll never be valued by the family again in this lifetime.

These two idiots actually have the nerve to complain here.

"There's a fork in the road ahead. Let's continue searching separately, following the routes we took a few days ago."

Jiang Yu was too lazy to waste any more words with them. He pointed in a direction and took the lead in leaving.

Watching his departing figure, Jiang Yan curled her lip in disdain: "Tch, calling him 'brother-in-law' all the time, acting all intimate, like you two are really close."

"I just don't understand, what's so interesting about looking for this?" Jiang Hai said impatiently.

"We saw Yang Xi'an, no, Yang Xian, fall down with our own eyes. He was at most at the peak of the third realm, and he's long dead."

"It's because his damn wolf didn't show any abnormalities that we've suffered here for nothing..."

Jiang Yan nodded in deep agreement: "Exactly! I don't believe he's still alive! Could he possibly come back to life?"

------

At the same time, in the small world of the Boundary Wolf Clan.

"It's coming out, it'll be out soon. Come on, Feng, you can do it!" Yang Xian encouraged the girl who was lying on the ground.

Feng, dressed in her adorable maid outfit, had a tense expression on her face and was biting her lip.

"Yes, Dad, I'll try my best..."

A few minutes later, Feng let out a long breath and collapsed limply to the ground, completely powerless.

"Finally... I figured it out... Dad, how did I do today?"

"Great job! Feng, you were fantastic today." Yang Xian smiled and patted her head.

A bright smile finally appeared on the girl's face, and her silver tail swayed uncontrollably behind her.

"These math word problems were quite difficult for you. I didn't expect you to solve them all within an hour."

During the few days that his mother-in-law was in seclusion, Yang Xian and Feng were not idle either.

In order to help Feng adapt to life in the human world, Yang Xian decided to start with basic education and broaden her knowledge.

Unexpectedly, Feng's learning talent was astonishing; he could learn by analogy and apply his knowledge to other situations.

If Zhou Xiyan were to teach him, with Feng's talent, becoming the student council president in high school wouldn't be difficult at all.

"Tell me, what reward do you want?" Yang Xian asked with a smile.

Upon hearing the word "reward," Feng's fluffy wolf ears instantly perked up.

She suddenly sat up from the ground, moved closer to Yang Xian, and her blue eyes gleamed with cunning.

"Tonight, I want to be on top..."

He hadn't finished speaking.

A powerful and familiar aura suddenly emanated from afar, instantly engulfing the entire valley.

All the wolves in the small world stopped moving at the same time and looked in unison towards the source of the fluctuation.

"This aura..." Yang Xian stood up, "It's our mother coming out of seclusion."

"Has Mom's injury healed?" Feng stood up as well, his face filled with surprise.

"Let's go take a look."

Yang Xian took Feng's small hand and walked towards the source of the aura.

When the two arrived, the cave where Yun was in seclusion was already surrounded by wolves.

The four elders were the first to go forward and respectfully prostrated themselves at the cave entrance.

"Congratulations, Clan Chief, on your successful completion of seclusion!"

"Congratulations, Clan Chief, not only have you fully recovered from your injuries, but your cultivation has also improved!"

As the elders finished speaking, a flash of light appeared at the cave entrance.

Yun's enormous figure walked out gracefully.

The aura emanating from her was more than twice as strong as it had been five days ago.

Upon seeing this, the surrounding wolf pack erupted in uproar.

"What! The clan leader's injuries have healed?"

"It's only been a few days! How could he have recovered so quickly!"

"Then we'll be able to get out of here very soon...?"

Amid the murmurs, Yun's gaze bypassed all the clansmen and landed directly on Yang Xian.

What this good son-in-law said is all true.

That tiny pill actually healed her serious injury, which she herself had found difficult to treat, in just a few days.

Yun spoke slowly, her voice echoing throughout the valley: "I was able to recover so quickly this time entirely thanks to the elixir given to me by my son-in-law, Yang Xian. Without him, I would have needed to recuperate for at least several more years."

These words shocked everyone present.

All the wolves' eyes were focused on Yang Xian, this "outsider," filled with gratitude.

Feng looked at Yang Xian's profile, his heart racing.

Master seems to be... truly omnipotent!

"Mom, you're exaggerating."

Facing the gazes of all the Realm Wolves, Yang Xian humbly waved his hand, "That pill mainly plays a supporting role; the key is still your own physical constitution..."

"Alright, stop being so modest," Yun interrupted him, her eyes full of admiration.

"I know you're eager to return to the human world."

"If you're ready, I can send you and Feng out right now."

------

A hidden place, near a volcano.

"I give up!"

Jiang Yan kicked a piece of gravel away, completely losing her patience. "When will this ever end? Are we just going to keep searching like headless flies until Yang Xian shows up?"

Jiang Hai nodded in agreement.

"That's right. Whether we look for it or not, the result is the same, so we might as well just give up. If that hothead Jiang Yu likes to look, let him look for it himself."

He leaned against a huge rock and continued, "If he can find Yang Xian alive, I'll eat this volcanic rock on the spot!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the space not far in front of him suddenly began to distort without warning.

A low hum filled the air, and visible ripples appeared out of thin air.

"Um?"

Jiang Hai suddenly stood up straight. "There seems to be something going on ahead."

"Could it be that some kind of treasure has been discovered?" Jiang Yan looked over as well, her eyes lighting up.

She immediately thought of the "Nine-Turn Life-Extending Lotus" that had appeared on this mountain before.

Since such rare treasures of heaven and earth can appear, it is not impossible for other treasures to appear again!

Jiang Hai's breathing became rapid instantly.

"Let's go take a look!"
