"Is that so?" Principal Qi thought to himself that the scene described by Lu Yang was somewhat different from what he had anticipated, and it was actually Jin Caiwei's description that better matched his understanding of immortals, with grand gestures and a commanding presence.

Jin Caiwei, uncharacteristically hesitant, didn't know whether to affirm or deny Lu Yang's answer.

She was born at the end of the ancient times, an era long past when geniuses contested the path of ascension. The Four Ancient Immortals were in their prime, ruling over the cosmos, and her father, the elder Qiongqi, was one of the ancient forces, his status just below that of the four immortals.

At that time, her cultivation level was not enough to truly participate in many events, such as battles between immortals; she could only rely on her father's narrations.

The battle between Yingtian Immortal and Time Immortal was known to her through her father's descriptions.

She remembered the Qilin Immortal saying that much of history had been glossed over by that shameless Yingtian Immortal. One must not only look at the surface but consider the actual situation.

The scene described by Lu Yang fitted with what the Qilin Immortal had called the "actual situation."

Furthermore, Lu Yang spoke with more certainty than she did, as if he had seen it with his own eyes, providing vivid details. This confidence was something Jin Caiwei lacked.

"I also do not know," Jin Caiwei helplessly shook her head, unable to judge the veracity of Lu Yang's words.

"I see," Principal Qi thought that this battle was indeed enigmatic, which did align with the characteristics of ancient history.

Principal Qi then earnestly advised Ye Gu, "Little Gu, I have long told you not to become arrogant just because you have learned a little about ancient history. Ancient times were the most glorious and brilliant era in the cultivation world, abound with endless legends. Even a lifetime's pursuit could not reveal all its mysteries."

"Look at these two young friends. Their understanding of ancient history surpasses yours, yet they provide two different answers for the same event, which shows the mystery of ancient history."

Ye Gu felt deeply shamed by Principal Qi's words.

"Teacher, I understand my mistake."

"As long as you understand, that's good. Now, go back to the Meng Family to teach."

After being sent back by Principal Qi to the Ye Family, Ye Gu continued to discuss ancient history with Jin Caiwei and Lu Yang. Jin Caiwei's descriptions were truly eye-opening and allowed him to learn many ancient secrets.

"Are you saying that the Qilin Immortal had not only the Dragon Clan Ancestor and the Phoenix Ancestor as wives, but there was also a junior ancestor from the Qiongqi Clan who was his wife?"

When Jiang Lianyi publicly declared that the Qilin Immortal had two wives, herself and Ao Ling, it caused a huge stir in the academic field of ancient history. It was unexpected to learn that the Qilin Immortal had yet another wife.

Principal Qi only knew that the cultivator before him was called Jin Caiwei but was unaware that the junior ancestor of the Qiongqi Clan was also named Jin Caiwei; he couldn't correlate the two.

Unlike the renowned great powers like Ao Ling and Zhu Tian, Jin Caiwei's fame was not as widespread. Later generations only knew of the elder Qiongqi and were unaware of a junior Qiongqi.

"May I ask, in which ancient tome did fellow Daoist Jin find these records?"

As a scholar, Principal Qi naturally could not simply believe whatever Jin Caiwei said; there had to be evidence.

He had perused numerous ancient tomes, yet none ever mentioned anything about the Qilin Immortal having three wives.

"Of course, there is."

Jin Caiwei mysteriously produced an ancient tome from the ancient times, which clearly recorded that the Qilin Immortal had three wives—the third being from the Qiongqi Clan.

Principal Qi, having received this ancient tome, treasured it as a priceless artifact.

The contents detailed many things unknown to later generations, the value of which was immeasurable.

"I always thought it strange; the current emperor can have three palaces and six courtyards, so how could the Qilin Immortal, a magnificent immortal, possibly have just two wives."

Emperor Xia: "..."

Director Qi, I haven't provoked you, have I? I've never withheld funding for your Tai Academy.

"Fairy, what's going on here?" Lu Yang was very puzzled. While Director Qi was translating the ancient language word for word, Lu Yang had already finished reading it.

Which ancient tome would dare to write that the Qilin Immortal has three wives? Are Ao Ling and Jiang Lianyi made of clay or something?

"Was the ancient book falsified?"

"There's no falsification. This book is indeed from ancient times; it's probably written by Little Tiger herself."

Fairy Eternity guessed a lot, and this ancient book was indeed written by Jin Caiwei during the Ancient Times—anyone who came to investigate would say it's the real deal.

The only problem is, not everything recorded in ancient books is guaranteed to be the truth.

Lu Yang sincerely felt that being a historian was a tough job. On the one hand, the Yingtian Immortal acted unscrupulously for the sake of prestige, and on the other, Jin Caiwei fabricated history to climb the ranks. Anyone who researched it ended up confused.

Luckily, he had Fairy Eternity, who knew the entire truth about ancient history... No, that's wrong, the best thing was that he didn't know!

One of Jin Caiwei's purposes for coming to the Tai Academy was to spread rumors. Although she couldn't defeat Ao Ling and Jiang Lianyi, she could gain an advantage in public opinion.

After deceiving Director Qi, Jin Caiwei looked at Lu Yang with a wary eye. This man named Lu Yang was no simple character; she feared he knew she was lying.

While Director Qi busied himself with the ancient book, Jin Caiwei bared her little tiger teeth and made a threatening grimace at Fairy Eternity, warning her not to reveal the truth.

"The Qilin Immortal indeed has another wife who is a little Qiongqi."

Fairy Eternity, contrary to her normal behavior, did not expose Jin Caiwei's lie, but instead helped her, leaving Lu Yang very puzzled.

"Fairy, you this..."

"What's the matter? Little Tiger is not wrong, the Qilin Immortal himself admitted it."

"There's such a story?!"

"That must have been before the Qilin Immortal got married to Xiao Ling and Lianyi. They pressed the Qilin Immortal to reveal whom he truly liked and whom he would take as his wife."

"He hugged them both and said that he liked both of them, so they were both his wives."

"If you follow this logic, that means the Qilin Immortal also likes Little Tiger, naturally making Little Tiger one of his wives as well." Fairy Eternity didn't just spout nonsense; everything she said was well-founded and logical.

"So the Qilin Immortal actually has quite a few wives, like the little Qiongqi, the Nine-Tailed Fox, and so on."

Lu Yang felt that it was fortunate that the Qilin Immortal had become a true Immortal. If the Qilin Immortal were only a Semi-Immortal, he might have ended up like that Harem Golden Core, facing a terrible fate of being dismembered.

"Later on, I felt that the Qilin Immortal liked so many people that I wanted to know if there was anyone he liked the most, just like ranking the top beauties of Ancient Times. Although they are all quite pretty, there should be some sort of order."

"I gathered all his wives and asked the Qilin Immortal who he liked the most."

"Shivering with excitement, and seeing him shiver so terribly, I tied him to a chair, securely, and then he stopped shivering."

"Perhaps the Qilin Immortal loves each person equally; in the end, he never did say who his favorite was."

Fairy Eternity shook her head in disappointment, unsatisfied with the outcome.

"After I left, I heard that the Qilin Immortal was beaten and howled quite loudly. It was probably a bit of spousal affection, but since it's private, I didn't inquire further."

Jin Caiwei didn't know what Fairy Eternity was thinking, but seeing her help with the lie, she seemed like a promising junior who could be greatly nurtured in the future.
