What do you mean by my awakened profession being Monster Hunter?

However, Ye Qingxian seemed to possess a familiar aura, which appeared to be related to the spiritual embryonic treasure within his cultivation method, puzzling him greatly.

"Young man, I've come to pick you up. Welcome to the Imperial City. It's been many years since we last met." The girl smiled and looked at Shi Hao.

Many people were taken aback and their expressions froze, because this girl was definitely not simple, and many people were wary of her. She actually knew Huang.

"Ye Qingxian!" Shi Hao exclaimed in surprise.

This woman left a deep impression on him; it was from her that the ancient covenant of yesteryear was revealed.

Ye Qingxian glanced around with a smile, but the moment her gaze fell on Qi Shi'an, her eyebrows twitched and her steps faltered inexplicably.

Qi Shi'an clearly captured this scene. He was slightly puzzled, wondering if it was just his imagination, but he felt that Ye Qingxian seemed to be a little... afraid of him.

"Fairy Ye... Fairy Ye..." Wang Changhe woke up and greeted her, his voice extremely weak.

Given the Wang family's personality, they rarely lower themselves to face someone.

But this woman is different. All the heroes within the Imperial Pass know that she is no ordinary woman, and several of the most terrifying invincible figures in the Ancestral Altar dote on her.

"I could hear people talking about the sins of blood from afar. They're incredibly audacious, truly fearless," Ye Qingxian sneered.

"Uh... Fairy Ye, this... this is a misunderstanding," the golden giant said in a trembling voice.

"Is that so? It was a misunderstanding. But you'd better not let me hear it again, or else..." Ye Qingxian clenched her fist and crushed a stone as a threat.

"Don't dare, don't dare."

A group of people broke out in a cold sweat, their faces turning deathly pale, fearing that if they offended this young lady, even their ancestors wouldn't be able to save them.

Cao Yusheng and Xiaotianjiaoyi were both a little stunned. Everyone present was a very important person, yet they were threatened by a girl. It was truly astonishing.

"follow me!"

Ye Qingxian raised her hand, and a divine rainbow flew out from the distance, transforming into a golden road that stretched out beneath Qi Shi'an, Shi Hao, and the others to guide them.

Rumble!

The magnificent golden road receded, accompanied by rumbling Taoist sounds, and many Taoist symbols flew and swirled, enveloping the bodies of the group.

The group was taken away just like that, leaving those who remained looking embarrassed and ashamed, while also feeling uneasy. Ye Qingxian had actually come to take away the descendants of the sinful bloodline herself, which was truly unexpected.

"Huang, you little devil, you just wait!" Wang Changhe, who was being helped up, gritted his teeth and stared in the direction Qi Shi'an had left, his eyes burning with rage.

Gu Mingdao's face was gloomy, and he said coldly, "You little devil, you killed the Qilin son of my clan, you'll pay for this sooner or later!"

At this moment, deep within the imperial city, several figures appeared before the mysterious ancestral altar.

"This place is so desolate. Why are there only a few stone carvings?" Cao Yusheng murmured. The golden avenue converged at its destination, where there were actually three stone carvings.

At first glance, this place looks very old, with broken walls and ruins everywhere. If you didn't know that this was the ancestral altar, you would think it was a ruin.

"The person in this carving is..." Shi Hao asked, puzzled.

“The one wielding the white bone club is the ancestor of the Stone Clan, the one bathed in firelight is the ancestor of the Fire Clan, and the other wielding the divine sword is the Human King,” Ye Qingxian replied.

Shi Yi and Qin Hao both shuddered and stared at the person in the stone carving.

Shi Hao was startled. He thought of the Seven Kings of the Borderlands. Could it be them? Upon closer inspection, they really did look alike, because he had seen their blurry figures on the blood-stained black ancient ship.

Shi Hao took a deep breath. "They are three of the Seven Kings, right?"

“That’s right.” Ye Qingxian nodded.

"This is my ancestor's leader. He looks quite imposing, but he's still a step below me," Qi Shi'an shamelessly remarked, causing the others to roll their eyes.

"Hehe, you're shameless enough to compare yourself to the King of Men." Ye Qingxian's dress fluttered, her graceful body glowing with a shimmering light, like a celestial fairy.

"So what? I've cultivated a third of the Human King Scripture and absorbed a drop of the Human King's essence blood, so I can be considered his successor. Even if the Human King were still alive, he wouldn't hold it against me," Qi Shi'an said with a chuckle.

Everyone was speechless. Was this someone showing off?

“Speaking of which, little girl, something seems off about you. The aura on your body… is actually the same as the aura of the Dharma I created.” Qi Shi’an’s words were astonishing, causing Ye Qingxian’s smile to freeze and her heart to tremble.

He guessed that although Ye Qingxian mainly cultivated the method created by Shi Hao, she must have also practiced his method, opened up her spiritual embryo, and after successfully transforming her primordial spirit, she focused on the secret realm of the human body.

"How...how could that be? You must be mistaken." Ye Qingxian smiled on the surface, but her heart was already in turmoil.

This demon was so sensitive that it immediately detected the abnormality in her primordial spirit.

That's not right. Logically speaking, this demon shouldn't be this terrifying at such a young age.

Qi Shi'an's eyes darted around, a mischievous idea forming in his mind. Since Ye Qingxian was afraid of him, why not... hehehe...

He approached step by step, waving his hands and grinning wickedly: "Little girl, you are very strange. Let this demon lord examine you carefully and see what's so special about you."

Ye Qingxian's face showed terror, and she slowly took a step back. A fear from the depths of her soul surged to the top of her head. "You... what do you want to do? This... this fairy is not someone to be trifled with!"

"What can I do? I'll do things that any demon would do." Qi Shi'an laughed lewdly, which frightened Ye Qingxian so much that she danced around with her arms and legs.

As Qi Shi'an approached, he stopped and transformed his face into that of a demon from hell, his expression ferocious and his aura sinister. Suddenly, he pressed his face close to Ye Qingxian's.

"Wow!"

"Ah... glutinous rice, garlic, black donkey hoof, I'm throwing them away... demons and monsters, get out of here..."

Ye Qingxian frantically threw out a bunch of things, completely forgetting that she possessed the spirit of the Endless Bell, and was utterly terrified.

Finally, she even took out a yellow talisman and stuck it on Qi Shi'an's forehead. Then, holding a peach wood sword, she casually brandished it while chanting, "Hurry, hurry, as the law commands!"

Upon seeing this scene, Shi Hao and the others couldn't help but twitch their lips and rub their foreheads.

They all knew that Qi Shi'an was unruly, but they never expected him to frighten a woman like this before.

"Xiao An, don't scare her." Shi Hao shook his head helplessly.

"Little one, is this girl not thinking straight? She's so easily frightened."

Qi Shi'an burst into laughter. He had only intended to scare Ye Qingxian, but he hadn't expected her to be so frightened. It seemed she was indeed very afraid of him.

Although we don't know what he did in later generations to make Ye Qingxian so afraid, it felt really good to scare the Heavenly Emperor's granddaughter like this.

"Haha... Fairy Ye, we are all very good people, don't be afraid." Cao Yusheng couldn't help but laugh.

It was only then that Ye Qingxian realized she had been tricked. She was so angry that she stomped her feet and puffed out her cheeks. "You big devil, you tricked me!"

Her face flushed red with embarrassment. As the most beloved descendant of the Heavenly Emperor, from the future, she had been intimidated by a little devil who had not yet grown up, and had done something indecent in public. It was truly shameful.

"I'm so angry! I'm so angry!"

Feeling too ashamed to face anyone, Ye Qingxian stood up, turned around, and was about to run out of the ancestral altar.

"Hey, here, this might save your life someday." Qi Shi'an chuckled, and with a wave of his hand, a divine rainbow shot towards Ye Qingxian at lightning speed.

"You wretched demon, I will definitely be back!"

After taking the item, Ye Qingxian left angrily without looking back.

Only a few young people remained, still laughing.

Chapter 340 The Remnants of the Human King

Cao Yusheng laughed loudly: "Haha... This little girl is quite interesting."

"By the way, Xiao An, what did you give her?" Shi Hao asked, puzzled as to why his best friend would say that thing could save her life.

"Hmm, it's a secret."

Qi Shi'an blinked, giving off a mysterious vibe, which only made people more curious about what it was.

"I hope I can retain a wisp of your soul," Qi Shi'an thought to himself, looking in the direction Ye Qingxian had left.

What he gave Ye Qingxian was a jade tablet, imprinted with his Daoist aura, which had the effect of nourishing the primordial spirit. It even recorded the secret method of cultivating the spiritual embryo and divine treasure, which can be regarded as his gift to future generations.

"That little girl is really something, bringing people in but not seeing them out." A helpless sigh came from deep within the ancestral altar, and then a gust of wind blew in, blowing the whole group away.

At this moment, Qi Shi'an, Shi Hao and the others were all a little stunned. One second they were still in front of the ancestral altar, and the next second they suddenly appeared outside. Anyone would be confused.

"What's going on?" Cao Yusheng asked, puzzled.

"Who knows?" Qi Shi'an shrugged.

Soon after, someone finally came to pick them up, but they were scattered and assigned to different tribes.

The imperial city is vast, like a great world, containing all kinds of mountains, rivers, and things.

Qi Shi'an felt that this place was many times larger than the eight regions of the lower realm combined. He was led into a small tribe. The place was filled with majestic mountains, lush forests, the cries of monkeys and the roars of tigers, and a wild and untamed atmosphere.

He was far removed from Shi Hao and Cao Yusheng, and even further removed from Shi Yi, Qin Hao, and Huo Ling'er.

"Your surname is Qi? Is it the Qi from the Qi family of Diguan?"

An old man emerged from the small tribe, dressed in a patched animal skin coat, and looked at Qi Shi'an.

"I have no relation to the Qi family of Di Guan. I am a descendant of Qi Zu, who served under the former King of Men. My bloodline is not the same as that of the Qi family of Di Guan," Qi Shi'an stated frankly.

“The descendants of the King of Men’s followers, no wonder they were sent here,” the old man sighed.

This is a small tribe with a population of only a little over a thousand. Compared to the grand imperial city and the various tribes, it is extremely small and insignificant.

Soon, Qi Shi'an learned some specific details: the surname of this small tribe was "Xuanyuan".

"Old man, why do you live in such poverty?" Qi Shi'an asked.

"Sigh, what else could it be? It's just because we are descendants of sinful blood." The old man was quite helpless, listless, and lacking in vitality.

The old man recounted in detail that in the most ancient times, the Xuanyuan clan had a large population and many experts, wielding great influence in the Imperial Pass. However, an old case was unearthed, and they became the descendants of sinners, which changed everything overnight.

From then on, whenever they went to war, the Xuanyuan clan had to be at the forefront. Countless clansmen died or were injured. No matter how many geniuses or experts there were, they could not withstand such malicious attrition.

Later, almost all the talented people had died out. Generation after generation passed, and a great clan declined, filled with blood, bones, and tears, a sight too painful to look back on.

Today, the Xuanyuan clan has only a thousand members, and this is only because some people still cherish old friendships and are doing their best to protect them; otherwise, the clan would have been wiped out long ago.

Qi Shi'an was furious. A surge of hot blood rushed to the top of his head, and the aura he exuded was so powerful that the earth collapsed several inches and rocks flew up.

He asked, "Which lineage of the Seven Kings of the Borderlands do you belong to?"

"A direct descendant of the King!" A young man walked over, carrying a mammoth on his back, having just returned from hunting in the mountains.

Qi Shi'an squinted. The King of Men was a man of unparalleled merit, the most cunning strategist and decision-maker among the seven kings.

The earth-shattering battle at the end of the Immortal Ancient Era was initiated by the Human King. The two Immortal Kings, Samsara and Wuzhong, dispatched the Gu Clan, one of the Ten Fiends, to infiltrate the alien realm, hoping to help Jiutian in the future.

Unexpectedly, he was betrayed and became a descendant of sinners. The situation here is even worse than that of the 'Sinful Province' of the Three Thousand Provinces.

Because this is the Imperial Pass, the front line, where many experts from the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are gathered. The descendants of the Seven Kings, who are in dire straits, have no chance of turning the tide.

"This is outrageous!" Qi Shi'an roared.

"Awoo..."

Suddenly, a loud crying sound came from afar, and some Xuanyuan people dressed in tattered animal skin clothes carried more than a dozen coffins into the tribe.

"Father!"

Young men and women screamed and collapsed in front of the coffin, wailing loudly.

The old man shook his head helplessly and sighed, "More than a dozen of our clansmen have died in battle. Perhaps this is fate. As descendants of the King of Men, we are powerless."

Once a super strong person emerges in this tribe, they will definitely be conscripted immediately to fight on the battlefield.

It can be said that the reason why the Xuanyuan clan declined was because of this: the strong were treated as waste, geniuses were destined to perish, could not live long, and were bound to die in battle outside the pass, until one day they returned wrapped in horsehide.

"Old man, do you know where the other descendants of the sinful bloodline are?" Qi Shi'an's eyes were blazing with hatred, his pupils burning with hatred, wishing he could kill those few crippled immortals immediately.

Xuanyuan Mei shook his head: "I don't know. A long time ago, our ancestors conspired with other tribes to send a group of people out. Then, in order to prevent such things from happening again, those people dispersed the tribes of the descendants of the sinful bloodline to a great distance."

Qi Shi'an nodded and decided to stay there, ready to go to war at any time.

Over the past few days, he has become familiar with this small tribe in the mountains. Life is difficult, most of the adults have been conscripted, and those left are the old, weak, sick and disabled.

If a powerful beast were to invade, the entire tribe would face a difficult test of life and death.

"Practice diligently, for this is a scripture created by your ancestors!"

At dawn, bathed in the golden light of sunrise, Qi Shi'an stood in the mountains, instructing a group of young men and women in their cultivation. His expression was serious, but everyone was studying diligently.

This scene made Qi Shi'an feel as if he had returned to the age of six. He remembered that he was just like these boys and girls back then, facing the morning sun, being watched by his instructors to hone his skills.

In addition to teaching the Xuanyuan clan the Wang Jing, Qi Shi'an also used his own learned techniques to teach the children.

"If this bone script is used incorrectly, the True Hou Treasure Technique, which contains extremely strong devouring power, will injure you if you make a mistake."

Qi Shi'an was correcting a child's condition. He taught him very seriously and with great care, hoping to help the tribe and make their lives better. At the very least, he wanted the children in the tribe to grow up faster and have the ability to protect themselves.

During this process, Qi Shi'an couldn't help but marvel at how talented these children were, with some even being extraordinary geniuses.

Among them, the boy named Xuanyuan Jingtian, who is fourteen or fifteen years old, is highly malleable and can be called a genius. His talent is stronger than that of many people outside.
