My Master Knows It All

Ju E heard the sound, her eyes suddenly widened, and she looked at Cao Zhen with displeasure, transmitting her voice through the mysterious path: ”You are my husband, shouldn’t you know this secret? Why should there be any concealment between us?”

”No, I’m just surprised.” Cao Zhen quickly changed the subject, ”Does your ancestral elder have any taboos?”

Ju E’s attention was instantly diverted, transmitting voice: ”No, the ancestral elder is the longest-lived existence in our entire Demon Clan. At the same time, the ancestral elder has another identity; she is the supreme elder of our Demon Clan.

Although I’ve only met the ancestral elder twice, this is the third time going to see her. I feel that the ancestral elder is very kind; she definitely won’t make things difficult for you.”

Cao Zhen looked at Ju E speechlessly. That’s your One Clan’s ancestral elder, sure she’s kind to you, after all, this is kinship through generations, who knows how many generations she’s away from you, how close, but I’m different.

Who could be in a good mood seeing their own cabbage taken by someone else!

Moreover, the longest-lived cultivator of the entire Demon Clan, the supreme elder of the Demon Clan, what cultivation realm would she be at?

Following Ju E’s guidance, Cao Zhen soon arrived at the distant place, among those mist-covered mountains.

Although there weren’t many cultivators in the Holy Land, he still saw two Fox Monsters on the way before. But as he entered these mountains, he realized that apart from himself and Ju E, he couldn’t sense any other life forms.

Moreover, this mist, even with his current cultivation base, he couldn’t see into the distance.

Suddenly, before him, the mist automatically parted, as if intentionally guiding them out a path. Ju E led Cao Zhen along the path the mist gave way to, towards the front.

Only about a kilometer away, it suddenly opened up in front of Cao Zhen, the mist disappearing from sight.

A large tree appeared before him.

The ancient tree was tall and slender, its trunk thick like a giant pillar, with the lines on the bark crisscrossing as if carrying traces of endless years, witnessing countless changes in the world.

The canopy was lush, the branches and leaves flourishing like clouds, blocking out the sky and sun. The leaves appeared as emerald-green jade, reflecting the light of ancient wisdom.

On the trunk were some uneven tree holes.

The moment Cao Zhen saw these tree holes, his mind, for some reason, conjured a thought that these tree holes were traces of time, as well as traces of life.

The most special feature of this ancient tree was its roots.

Normally, tree roots should sink deep into the soil.

Yet many roots of this ancient tree were exposed, and perked up high, forming the stance of a giant dragon soaring into the sky, seemingly guarding the ancient tree’s domain.

Deep and mysterious auras emerged from within the ancient tree.

Cao Zhen even had the feeling that the ancient tree was the guardian of this Holy Land of the Fox Monster Clan, a witness to all living beings.

Every time the breeze blows, it seems you can hear the ancient tree’s whispers, ancient and solemn.

Below this ancient tree, an old woman sat cross-legged, even while sitting cross-legged, her figure was hunched, and her face was fully wrinkled, she looked incredibly old, even making one feel that perhaps she couldn’t stand up anymore.

Yet her eyes were deep and bright, revealing a sense of serenity and wisdom.

Moreover, despite looking withered as if having no flesh left, just skin and bones, the old woman exuded an undeniable powerful aura.

The ancestral elder of the Fox Monster Clan.

Cao Zhen merely glanced at her, and his gaze fell onto her clothing.

It was an ancient blue-colored robe, worn and mottled, revealing the baptism of time. The robe was embroidered with some complex symbols and patterns, seemingly hiding a certain profound meaning.

A wide cloth belt was tied at her waist, with strange patterns embroidered on it, emitting an aura of mystery.

The style of this clothing...

Cao Zhen’s eyes revealed a hint of surprise; those patterns and symbols on the clothing, the style no matter how looked, seemed like the symbols and patterns of the Human Clan, and not of the current Human Clan, but of the era of Lu Ya and Old Zhang whom he connected with.

How could she have such clothing?

The ancestral elder of the Fox Monster Clan noticed Cao Zhen’s gaze. On that face, which had seen countless years, seemingly nothing could cause her inner turbulence anymore, unexpectedly appeared a clear expression of surprise.

She slowly grabbed the cane beside her, supporting herself to stand and stepped towards the direction of Cao Zhen and Ju E.

Even though her steps were slow, each step was full of power. The cane in her hand seemed to contain boundless strength; every time it lightly touched the ground, it triggered subtle vibrations, seemingly connecting her with the earth.

At the same time, her gaze fell onto Cao Zhen, the deep and penetrating gaze as if able to discern everything.

”You recognize the clothing I wear. You indeed are from that era’s Human Clan.”

Her voice was deep and hoarse. Upon hearing this voice, Cao Zhen trembled all over, looking incredulously at the ancestral elder of the Fox Clan, exclaiming: ”How do you know about that era?”

He had always been puzzled by one question. The people he connected with, be it Old Zhang, or Lu Ya, or the Demon Clan’s Kunpeng, etc., why in this era, he had never heard of their existence, nor had seen their legacy.

He once believed that those entities he connected with existed in another parallel space.

But now, the ancestral elder of the Fox Monster Clan spoke of that era!

Ju E looked at her ancestral elder and then looked at Cao Zhen, momentarily baffled, what were they talking about?

The ancestral elder of the Fox Clan continued advancing slowly, a face filled with yearning said: ”I don’t know much, but I know of that era because of our Fox Monster Clan’s heritage. Our Fox Monster Clan has existed for a very, very long time.

And in the oldest scriptures of our Fox Monster Clan, there are records that our Fox Monster’s ancestral elder’s ancestor existed in that era.”

Upon hearing this, two characters instantly surged in Cao Zhen’s mind, Da Ji!

So, is the Fox Monster Clan the descendants of the Red Fox?

As the ancestral elder of the Fox Clan spoke, she had already arrived in front of Cao Zhen and sighed: ”Unexpectedly, you are a reincarnated great ability from that era!”
