âHehe, actually, you donât have to be too depressed. Xueâer left you a gift before she went into seclusion.â Empty smiled mysteriously.
âUh! What gift?â The few of them were full of curiosity. They had just come out of seclusion and were in a hurry to advance after coming out, so they really did not know much about Xueâer and the othersâ recent actions.
âFeng Zhan!â Empty called out softly.
Not long after, Feng Zhan brought the eight and nine-level Transcendent Divine Beasts in his hand to their side.
âUh! Where did these phoenixes come from? Little Fengfeng, did you add new members?â Lin Liang looked at the unfathomably powerful phoenixes in front of him, his face filled with question marks. They did not know any of these phoenixes, so he was very sure that these phoenixes were new! With this
in mind, he could not help but be curious about the recent happenings of Xueâer and company.
âHeh heh, thatâs right. They are all my servants. Master instructed for you to contract as you wish! You can sign a master-servant contract with them. In the future, they will be your servants.â Feng Zhan explained with a grin.
âOur servants?â Lin Liang and the others were all experienced, so how could they not understand Feng Zhanâs words! Oh! It seemed that these phoenixes had provoked their little princess. Otherwise, with Xueâerâs degree of love for animals, how could she let them sign a master-servant contract! However,
since these ignorant phoenixes had angered their little ancestor, then it was only right for them to receive some punishment. Thus, their thoughts destined these unlucky phoenixes to work like cows and horses in the future.
âYes.â Feng Zhan nodded.
âHehe, since thatâs the case, I wonât stand on ceremony then.â The disheveled old man rubbed his palms together and said excitedly. Hehe. Even though these phoenixes werenât obedient, they were pretty. Hmm! He could have a beautiful beast now.
However, who knew that the disheveled old manâs thoughts would incur the displeasure of his beastmen!
âMaster, youâre despising us!â The disheveled old manâs beast spirit sent a voice transmission with an aggrieved expression. Boohoo⦠Even though they werenât as pretty as those phoenixes, their relationship with Master was definitely deeper than those phoenixes! Hmph! That damned phoenix wanted to
fight for their favor the moment he arrived! He was dead meat!
âNo, Iâm not despising you guys.â The disheveled old man hurriedly consoled them after hearing their words. Boo⦠he really didnât!
âBoohooâ¦â The beasts cried bitterly.
âDonât ery, donât cry. I wonât take in any more servants, alright?â The disheveled old man said helplessly. Boohoo⦠Even though he could not bear to part with it, a lousy phoenix was not as important as his beasts!
âNo!â the beast beasts said in unison. Hmph! If their master didnât take in a phoenix as a servant, who would they bully?
âEh!â The disheveled old man was conflicted. He could not stop crying. What did they want from him?
âMaster, why donât you take in a phoenix and become our subordinates?â the beastmen suggested. Even though the phoenix in front of them was stronger than them, the phoenix came later!
âAlright,â the disheveled old man agreed before turning his gaze towards the phoenixes before him. Oh, as long as these beasts were happy, everyone would be biased!
Lin Liang and the others surrounded the phoenix in front of them and looked at it several times. Then, they finally each chose a phoenix to contract
âYour Majesty, why didnât anyone choose me?â Looking at the contracted phoenixes with slight jealousy, the seventeenth elder said with a gloomy face. Boohoo⦠Even though there was no longer any threat of death in this space, if they didnât have a master, they could only rely on themselves to advance.
Boohoo⦠this would be very slow! So, he also wanted to find a master, but no one was willing to take him! So sad!
âWhatâs the rush? Someone will definitely take a liking to you! Right, howâs the matter I asked you to handle?â Feng Zhan asked.
âawakening the patriarch and elders is a long process, so I still need time,â the seventeenth elder said hurriedly.
âEn, donât be lazy. The sycamore trees will tell me your every move,â Feng Zhan warned.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âI promise I wonât.â The seventeenth elder wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and said. Boohooâ¦. Never in their wildest dreams would they have imagined that the sycamore trees that they had relied on for so many years would actually betray them. This was too inconceivable. How could it be like this?
Moreover, they already knew that if they didnât surrender, or if they defeated Leng Ruoxue and the others, then the sycamore trees that they had raised for so many years would also be taken away!
âEn, you guys can continue with your work!â After Feng Zhan finished speaking, he sent a voice transmission to Qing Jue to send the seventeenth elder and the other phoenixes out of the space.
After busying himself with his masterâs instructions, Feng Zhan returned to his own territory to cultivate as well. Recently, his masterâs beast beasts had been cultivating diligently as well, so he naturally couldnât fall behind the beast queen!
After Feng Zhan and the other beasts left, Lin Liang looked at the few old men beside him and said, âIâve decided to continue my seclusion. I canât be left behind by Old Leng.â
âEn, I also want to enter seclusion.â The old man also spoke of his decision.
âLetâs continue our seclusion then!â The disheveled old man and the other twoâs gazes clashed as they said in unison.
Since they were tempted, they might as well take action. After making their decision, they greeted Empty and then returned to their respective rooms to enter seclusion.
Seeing that he and Icy were the only ones left in the lively garden, he could not help but sigh softly. Boohoo⦠when would Xueâer and the others come out of seclusion? Ever since Xueâer decided to go into seclusion, the space had been in a craze for cultivation. All the people and beasts were busy
cultivating, so this place seemed much quieter.
After another three months, there was finally some movement in the purple bamboo house where Leng Ruoxue and the freak were. Empty, who had been sitting on the stone bench in front of the purple bamboo house, couldnât help but look towards the door with a face full of anticipation
After waiting for a while, the commotion stopped again!
Sigh! So it was a false alarm! Boohoo⦠Empty was very sad, the consequences are very serious!
However, just as he was feeling melancholic, the door to the Purple Bamboo House suddenly opened. The two people he had been looking forward to for a long time finally walked out of the house hand in hand.
âYou guys are finally willing to come out.â Empty said with a bitter face. At this moment, he looked like a little wife who had been abandoned by someoneâ¦
