Chapter 1372: Thank You, Great Venerable Master

 

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Fire Phoenix looked at Lu Zhou in confusion. The seemingly weak old man looked as though he could be knocked down with just a swipe of its wings. Who knew he could erupt with such terrifying power? Especially toward the end of the battle, it felt as though it was facing someone from the Great Void.

 

That was right! The Fire Phoenix wondered if the old man was from the Great Void. If that was the case, then leaving its child with these people was like leaving a sheep in the tiger’s mouth.

 

With this, the Fire Phoenix made a series of noises again.

 

Conch said telepathically, “Master, it said that you’re from the Great Void.”

 

“Hm?”

 

“It said that unless you can prove you’re not from the Great Void, it won’t agree with your condition,” Conch explained.

 

Lu Zhou frowned. “How do you want me to prove that?”

 

The Fire Phoenix moved before it made another series of strange noises.

 

Conch said, “It said you have to withstand the full brunt of its attack.”

 

Lu Zhou: “?”

 

Little Yuan’er grew angry upon hearing these words. She placed her hands on her hips and said, “You’re a really funny beast! My master just beat you up and subdued you. It’s good enough that he didn’t kill you. How dare you ask him to let you attack him? Conch, translate my words to it. Say it loudly and in an imposing manner!”

 

“Oh.” Conch translated every word carefully.

 

In fact, even without translation, the Fire Phoenix could understand what Little Yuan’er said. It shook its head.

 

Little Yuan’er said, “You better be reasonable! My master is here so don’t act arrogant! Don’t humiliate yourself even if you have nothing better to do!” Then, she turned to Lu Zhou and asked, “Master, am I right?”

 

Lu Zhou: “…”

 

Indeed. He did not have a fetish for standing still and letting others attack him.

 

Lu Zhou looked at the Fire Phoenix and said, “I don’t have time to waste with you. Why don’t we do this? If you can withstand my palm strike, I’ll do as you wish. What do you think?”

 

The Fire Phoenix shook its head immediately. Fear still lingered in its heart when it thought about the earlier scene. Fortunately, the old man in front of it had yet to master the method to kill an immortal divine bird. Nevertheless, it did not want to suffer the pain.

 

At this time, the little Fire Phoenix began to chirp again. It flapped its wings, lifting its chubby body.

 

The Fire Phoenix took a step back and nodded somewhat helplessly. Its expression was rather interesting. It seemed to say, “Alright, you little ingrate! You win! I agree, okay?”

 

Then, the little Fire Phoenix flew back to perch on Little Yuan’er shoulder, looking pleased with itself. It folded its wings and raised its head proudly, happily enjoying the Great Void energy. Only a descendant of a divine beast like it was qualified to enjoy the energy from the Great Void Seed.

 

Seeing that little Fire Phoenix was doing very well and even had the nourishment from the Great Void energy, the Fire Phoenix knew the little Fire Phoenix would progress rapidly. However, if these people were from the Great Void, the little Fire Phoenix would be in big trouble. It looked at Lu Zhou again. If it could confirm Lu Zhou was not from the Great Void, it thought it might be worthwhile lending Lu Zhou its life heart.

 

At the same time, everyone watched in confusion.

 

After a moment, the Fire Phoenix raised its head and closed the distance between it and Lu Zhou until it was only half an inch away from Lu Zhou. Then, a red wisp of flame flew toward Lu Zhou.

 

Lu Zhou was puzzled. He did not sense any lethality from the wisp of flame. When it arrived in front of him, it was gentle and warm. Then, the flames seemed to turn into a mini vortex. Suddenly, the flame turned blue.

 

Swoosh!

 

The Fire Phoenix let out a cry as it flapped its wings. Its eyes looked as though it was going to fall out of their sockets.

 

Humans and beasts had different thinking, but they all felt the same emotions such as fear and joy.

 

Everyone clearly saw the fear in the Fire Phoenix’s eyes at this moment.

 

After retreating a few steps, the Fire Phoenix lowered its proud head and put away its arrogance as the noble Fire Phoenix, looking extremely humble at this moment. Then, it made a string of low noises.

 

“…”

 

Upon seeing this, even the little Fire Phoenix was stunned. It looked at its mother in confusion.

 

Little Yuan’er and Conch also did not expect the Fire Phoenix’s abrupt change in attitude.

 

Lu Zhou pointed at the Fire Phoenix and asked, “Conch, what did it say?”

 

Conch stuttered and scratched her head before she said, “Uh, it said… It’s you? Master, it seems like it knew you from a long time ago?”

 

Lu Zhou said mercilessly, “I don’t know it.”

 

“Oh.”

 

The Fire Phoenix: “…”

 

The Fire Phoenix who had lost its arrogance nodded as it made a lot of noise.

 

Conch nodded. “Well, it’s good that you agreed. This is your promise to my master. Don’t worry. My master is a man of his words. And let me tell you, my master hates those who go back on their words!”

 

The Fire Phoenix: “%#¥…%@¥#!”

 

It meant: I understand!

 

The Fire Phoenix shook its body and pulled out a feather before handing it to Lu Zhou.

 

Lu Zhou looked at the feather, slightly confused.

 

Conch said, “It said that if you burn this feather, it’ll be able to sense you and rush over immediately.”

 

Lu Zhou nodded and put it away in the Vast Sky Bag.

 

Then, the Fire Phoenix slowly spread its wings. At the same time, it looked at the little Fire Phoenix, clearly reluctant to part with its child.

 

The little Fire Phoenix chirped happily like an insensible child, completely unwise to the pain of separation between parents and their children.

 

“You can go,” Lu Zhou said, waving his hand.

 

The Fire Phoenix chirped and flapped its wings. In just a blink of an eye, it flew into the sky and vanished from sight.

 

 

Meanwhile, Qin Renyue and the others were confused. They could not hear what Lu Zhou said, but they could see everything.

 

All of them rushed back from the distance.

 

Yuan Lang, one of the 49 swordsmen, shouted, “Put out the fire!”

 

Gu Ning, Shang Yan, and Fan Zhong ordered their people to help as well.

 

“What are you waiting for? Help put out the fire!”

 

There were hundreds of people who were brought here by the Free Men. Hence, their speed of putting out the fire was not too bad.

 

The cultivators flew back and forth, bringing water from every direction to put out the fire.

 

Not long after, the fire was put out.

 

The northern training hall was charred black with wisps of smoke rising from the rubble.

 

Fortunately, the southern training hall was safe and the other places were safe. The northern training can be rebuilt.

 

After putting out the fire, everyone gathered and bowed in thanks.

 

Qin Renyue said, “Fortunately, Brother Lu’s here. Otherwise, my northern and southern training halls would be gone for good.”

 

Fan Zhong chimed in, “Great Venerable Master is truly extraordinary! Even the divine beast had to retreat. I really admire you. Venerable Master Qin, you must thank Great Venerable Master Lu.”

 

Qin Renyue rolled his eyes. ‘That’s a matter of course; I don’t need you to remind me.’

 

Lu Zhou waved his hand and said, “It’s just a small matter. There’s no need to speak about such trivial matters.”

 

Qin Renyue was even more moved when he heard these words. “Brother Lu, my Qin clan will remember your great kindness!”

 

The young cultivators from the Qin clan originally were slightly dissatisfied about Qin Moshang’s death. However, because of Qin Renyue, none of them dared to express their dissatisfaction with Lu Zhou. However, after witnessing Lu Zhou’s performance today, all of them were thoroughly convinced.

 

About 3,000 disciples bowed at the same time.

 

“Thank you, Great Venerable Master!”

 

“Ding! Received the worship of 3,100 people.. Reward: 3,100 merit points.”
