Chapter 243 The weak and the strong
Seeing Su Muyao's stunned expression, even Old Madam Xiao found her quite adorable.

When the name of her benefactor was mentioned, Madam Xiao's expression softened considerably, and she said with a look of reminiscence, "Yes, it was your grandfather. I didn't know who he was."

"I barely escaped from the Xiao family. I was seriously injured and was chased by a large number of experts. I was almost surrounded and killed by them. At the critical moment, your grandfather made a move. He just stood on the tree and gently made a move. His pressure suppressed those experts and made them unable to move."

"Later I met your father and saw the jade pendant on his waist, which was once worn by your grandfather. Also, your father looks so much like your grandfather. I can't be wrong."

"Besides, your father's abilities and reputation are obvious to all, so his daughter must be exceptional."

Having witnessed your grandfather's charisma, I know his granddaughter is no less remarkable.

"Besides, there's this favor we've done for each other, so I have no reason to object to this marriage."

Madam Xiao did not hide these words from anyone.

Wen Nanxi and the others were listening nearby, and their hearts were filled with shock and disbelief.

I knew the wife was beautiful and strong, but I never expected her to have such a background.

The fact that Madam Xiao could say such things stirred up a storm in their hearts. To be the beastly husband of the mistress was indeed an honor for them.

Fortunately, he was chosen by the wife back then, otherwise they might not have been qualified to stand by her side.

She's growing up so fast; she'll only become more and more dazzling.

Su Muyao snapped out of her shock, her expression shifting, her eyes brightening as she asked, "Grandmother Xiao, does this mean my grandfather came from the Unknown Zone, which is the Azure Beast Continent you mentioned?"

Madam Xiao shook her head and said, "I don't know where he came from. When I was in the main branch of the Xiao family, I had never heard of or seen such a beastman. Even the Xiao family experts who were chasing me back then didn't recognize him."

"It's like it comes and goes without a trace, which reminds me of an orc."

Su Muyao asked, "Who is it?"

Could it be that my grandfather is still alive?
Madam Xiao spoke up: "Our Dongning Beast Kingdom's Grand Preceptor."

As she spoke, she shook her head again, "But how could that be? He's so strong, it's impossible for him to be the national advisor of a beast kingdom in our mortal beast continent."

"But your father grew up in the Su family, and even I don't know the details."

"Although my Mortal Beast Continent and Azure Beast Continent have powerful barrier barriers, which were set up in ancient times, your grandfather's abilities should have allowed him to come and go as he pleased."

"Just like some powerful forces with deep roots, they can still use secret methods to send orcs to the mortal beast continent, but they have to pay a certain price."

"I entered the Xiao family back then using the family head's token."

As she spoke, Madam Xiao took out the Xiao family patriarch token, which once possessed teleportation power. Once a certain level of strength was reached, it could be activated to enter the family's territory.

At this moment, Su Muyao became even more curious about her grandfather and father.

“Grandmother Xiao, since that is my grandfather, then it should be my Su family’s patriarch, whom you should have met before.”

Madam Xiao explained, "Old Master Su of the Su family has never appeared in public. It is said that he is frail and sickly. No one even knows who Madam Su is. Your father was brought back by him. You were brought back by your father suddenly. So no one knows who your grandmother and your mother are."

Su Muyao never expected that her grandmother had no name or background.

"Grandmother Xiao, do you know anything about my father now?"

Madam Xiao said thoughtfully, "I suspect your father may have gone to the unknown area."

"When he came to the Xiao family to propose marriage for you before, he mentioned a few things in a veiled way. He must have gone to the unknown area to find your mother. Now many people are saying that your father is dead, but he must not be dead."

That's how certain Madam Xiao was.

Su Muyao also believed that her father was still alive. "Grandmother Xiao, is the Unknown Zone very dangerous?" She really wanted to go to the Unknown Zone, but if she went, Wen Nanxi and the others would definitely come with her.

Therefore, she needs to figure things out before taking any risks.

"Yes, it's not as peaceful as the Mortal Beast Continent. The forces there are complex and intertwined, including sects, factions, and families. Moreover, it's a dog-eat-dog world where the strong are respected."

"In order to enhance their strength, they also use very cruel methods. The internal struggles within the Xiao family are very fierce. When the family selects experts, the competitions set up can kill opponents on the spot. The arena can be a life-or-death battle."

Therefore, Madam Xiao was not used to that kind of environment and disliked it very much.

However, the territory of the Azure Beast Continent is several times larger than that of the Mortal Beast Continent.

There are many things that even she doesn't know clearly.

Because she had spent most of her time at the Xiao family's main residence, or was sent out on missions by the Xiao family.

……

Su Muyao and Xiao Jihan asked many questions, and the more they learned, the more solemn their expressions became.

Afterwards, Wen Nanxi and the others were arranged by Old Madam Xiao to go back to rest, while Old Madam Xiao kept Xiao Jihan and Su Muyao alone.

Madam Xiao looked at them and said, "I used a secret technique to seal Ji Han's ice spirit root before. Now I will unseal the secret technique for him, and his ice spirit root physique will be revealed. In this way, he will be able to cultivate and improve his strength very quickly."

"In the past, I just wanted him to grow up safely. But with the way our family behaves now, who knows when they might send experts over again? So we should prepare early."

"Mu Yao, you are his wife, so I will not hide anything about him from you."

"Once the Ice Spirit Root is unlocked, it might bring danger if others find out."

Su Muyao replied without hesitation, "Grandmother Xiao, I will protect Jihan. He is my beast husband, and I will not let anyone hurt him."

Madam Xiao's eyes welled up with tears, and she nodded with satisfaction.

“Your father was extremely protective of his own, and my judgment back then was correct.”

"Of course, Jihan, you must also cultivate diligently, not for revenge, but to protect yourself and your wife and become stronger."

"This world is far more complex and profound than we think. Only by being strong enough can we live well."

Xiao Jihan nodded earnestly and said, "Grandmother, I understand."

Xiao Jihan sat there, his hands clenched tightly; he was determined to become stronger quickly.

Madam Xiao used her supernatural powers to set up a barrier and also placed several magical artifacts around it.

"This is to prevent strange phenomena from appearing and attracting other people's attention."

Sure enough, when Old Madam Xiao released the seal on Xiao Jihan's Ice Spirit Root, a white light as white as ice and snow burst forth, shooting straight into the sky and even spreading outwards.

The entire room was enveloped in this white light.

Su Muyao was somewhat surprised. Was this the power of the Ice Spirit Root's talent?
At this moment, Xiao Jihan's hair turned snow-white. When he transformed into his true form, he became an ice wolf, and his black fur suddenly turned completely snow-white.

Su Muyao was stunned. Could this really be possible?

It can even change color?
