Volume 1: The Beauty of Misfortune Chapter 103: The Phoenix Descendants (Part 2)

Feng Baichuan turned his eyes behind Lan Xueruo and said, "Little brother, you look very bad, and you are being carried by this girl. You must have been seriously injured, right? I have some medical skills, maybe Can you help me with something?”

"My name is Yun Che. Thank you Clan Chief Feng for your kindness." Yun Che, who was sitting on Lan Xueruo's back, replied politely. His voice made Lan Xueruo's beautiful eyes widen: "You...are you awake?"

"Well, I woke up when Senior Sister picked me up." Yun Che said with a smile. Although his face was ugly, his voice was finally no longer so weak. When he fell into the sky, he used the Sky Poison Pearl to quickly combine more than 30 kinds of medicinal materials such as Tianfu grass, nectar flower, and mountain river blue. He quickly melted a Heaven-Returning Pill, and then swallowed it in his mouth. The medicinal materials required for refining the Huitian Pill are extremely demanding in terms of quantity and quality, but the refining environment, cauldron, and refining methods are even more stringent. Even a high-level elixir master can only achieve a refining success rate of less than 30%. But with Xiao Sect's branch, a huge treasure house and the Sky Poison Pearl, these are not a problem.

"Then you...then you still don't say anything and let me carry you this far." Lan Xueruo's face turned pink and she felt angry for a moment.

"Because it's the first time in my life that I'm being carried on a girl's back. It's very comfortable. And... senior sister's body smells so good." When he said this, he originally wanted to take a gentle sniff of Lan Xueruo's body, but suddenly His expression froze, and he was stunned...

Is this really... the first time a girl carries you?

In this life, it is indeed true...

But, in that life in Cangyun Continent...that girl...every time she returned to her place, she would use her last bit of strength to slam the bamboo door before she passed out, and when she woke up, she would still be lying there. That soft and warm bed... Although he was in a coma, he seemed to be able to clearly feel every step she took with her frail body carrying him covered in blood, and the pain that accompanied each step. A little teardrop...

Time and time again, maybe dozens of times, maybe hundreds of times, there were so many times that he couldn't even count them, and he didn't try to count them... The only thing he could remember clearly was that even if he could live two lives, he wouldn't be able to count them. I can't make up for my debt to her. Because God no longer gives him a chance.

Suddenly, Lan Xueruo, who was leaning against him, slowly turned into the figure that only appeared in dreams...

"You! If it weren't for your injury, I would have thrown you down!" Lan Xueruo snorted angrily. When she carried Yun Che on her back before, she felt calm inside because she thought Yun Che was unconscious. Now that he woke up, the close touch of his body and the vague masculine aura made her blush and her heartbeat became a little disordered.

"Clan Chief Feng, can you help us find a place to settle my friend?" Lan Xueruo asked Feng Baichuan.

"Of course, please come with me."

This small village is indeed a small village, with only a few dozen simple houses in total. From Feng Baichuan's words, he learned that the entire family only had about two hundred people. Regarding the arrival of two outsiders, Lan Xueruo and Yun Che, the people here were first wary, and then they all showed kindness. Soon, Lan Xueruo and Yun Che discovered a strange thing at the same time. The people they met were all at the tenth level of the Elementary Profound Realm. Except for those children who had not yet cultivated mystical power, they were all like this. One exception. It seemed that the tenth level of the Elementary Profound Realm was the limit they could reach. However, after entering the Xuan Realm, every time you cross between great realms, there will be bottlenecks that become increasingly difficult to break through. But from the tenth level of the Elementary Profound Realm to the Nascent Xuan Realm, there is no bottleneck at all. As long as you accumulate enough profound power, you will naturally enter the Nascent Xuan Realm.

But the people here have all stopped at the tenth level of the Elementary Profound Realm, which really puzzles Yun Che and Lan Xueruo.

"Why is there the aura of the phoenix here?"

Jasmine's sudden voice surprised Yun Che: "Phoenix? The legendary ancient beast Phoenix?"

"That's right!" There was a hint of exhaustion in Jasmine's voice. She had previously transferred part of her profound energy to Yun Che. Although it was only for a few seconds, it caused a certain amount of damage to her soul and Yun Che's body: " Although it is very weak, it is undoubtedly the aura of the phoenix. It is really strange... Could it be that the phoenix actually came to this lower plane in the first place?"

Inferior plane... These words made Yun Che's heart stir, and he suddenly had a terrible guess about Jasmine's identity.

"And the flame mark on their foreheads is the symbol of the Phoenix bloodline! However, the color of this mark is completely different from what this princess knows. In addition, the Phoenix bloodline mark can usually be hidden. When using Phoenix flames They are forced to appear when they are strong, but the people here all bear the mark of the phoenix, as if they cannot hide at all. In short, it is very strange! "

Feng Baichuan brought Lan Xueruo and Yun Che to a clean hut: "You two, please have a good rest here. We are just a small secluded tribe. Nothing can be compared with the outside world. We can only neglect the two of them." Bit."

Lan Xueruo carefully put Yun Che on the bed, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She turned around and said, "Clan Chief Feng, you are so polite. We are already very grateful to have such a place."

"Are you the guardian family of Phoenix Heritage?"

At this moment, Yun Che suddenly asked coldly.

Feng Baichuan's always calm and elegant face suddenly froze, and his pupils shrank significantly. His eyes changed rapidly, thinking about how to deny and avoid, but after a few breaths, his eyes calmed down, and he laughed at himself: "Guardian of the family? We don't deserve such a title, we are just burdened with Sins and curses, far away from the world, just a humble family that has redeemed itself from generation to generation. Although I don’t know how you learned that we are related to the Phoenix, but it seems... you came to this place because you really want to get the so-called "that we protect." Treasure'?"

"Phoenix? The sacred beast of faith of the Divine Phoenix Empire?" Lan Xueruo looked at Yun Che and Feng Baichuan with a surprised face, her brain was a little confused for a moment.

"No, you misunderstood." Yun Che took a breath and tried to sit up, but his whole body was weak and the wound hurt sharply at the slightest movement. He had no choice but to give up and lay there and said, "I would have thought that you might be from the Phoenix Relics. You protect the family because of the mark on your forehead. I have come across many rumors about the Phoenix bloodline. The shape of the mark on your forehead is exactly the same as the Phoenix bloodline mark I know, but the color is slightly different. My senior sister and I came here. Here, I just accidentally fell here from a high altitude and was seriously injured. There is absolutely no other meaning."

Yun Che's injuries made Feng Baichuan completely believe him. After all, no one would be stupid enough to covet their "treasure" with serious injuries. Yun Che's words made him startled for a while, and then he laughed at himself again: "Phoenix mark... different colors... yes, different colors. The noble mark that was originally a symbol of strength and blood has now become a sad curse mark. , The ancestors made a big mistake, how can we, the descendants, deserve it?”

There was a deep sadness in Feng Baichuan's words, as if Yun Che's words had completely touched the pain in his heart.

Seal of Curse? Yun Che's heart palpitated. How could a bloodline mark become a cursed mark? Wait, is it possible that their profound strength can only stop at the tenth level of the Elementary Profound Realm because of this "cursed seal" that Feng Baichuan said?

"I believe you are not evil people, because I can't find any feeling of being evil people from you. You also saved my two children. I should repay you in any way. It's just..." Feng Baichuan let out a long sigh. : "Our family is currently suffering from a disaster. If you continue to stay here, the disaster may also affect you. Therefore, take good care of your injuries here. It is best to heal your injuries before those evil people come here again, and then leave. Here. Because the next time those evil people come, maybe... it will be a disaster. "

Along the way, he learned what had happened before from Lan Xueruo's conversation with the two children. He said in confusion: "Chief Feng, there is one thing I don't understand. Your clan must have been here for many years, right? You have been safe and sound for so many years, why are you being targeted by a mercenary group this time?"

Feng Baichuan glanced out the window and said calmly: "You are right. Our clan has existed for many, many years and was once prosperous. However, due to a sin of divine punishment, it declined rapidly and had to choose to hide from the world and survive. Today, it looks so humble, not even as good as a small human village. But no one has bothered us in these years, because this place is called the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountains, and all kinds of mysterious beasts are rampant, ranging from violent to violent. There are sub-mysterious beasts, up to the terrifying Earth Mysterious Beast, and even three terrifying Sky Mysterious Beasts are said to live in the mountains. This is the paradise of Mysterious Beasts. They exclude humans from entering here, so once humans enter, You will be attacked by them in groups. At the same time, the deeper you go, the higher the level of the mysterious beast becomes."

"And this is the center of the entire Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range. In order to obtain the mysterious beast's mysterious elixir, some humans may operate on the edge of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, but except for those peerless experts, no one has the courage and ability to reach this place. Area, and those who have this ability will not bother to come to such a place."

"But, it seems that there are no mysterious beasts nearby?" Yun Che frowned. As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized: "Is it because of... the aura of the phoenix?"

"That's right." Feng Baichuan nodded: "To tell you the truth, behind this place is a phoenix legacy that we have guarded for generations, and the aura left by the phoenix remains. Although the aura is weak, it persists all year round. Who in this world can bear the pressure of the ancient beasts? "

"I see."

Yun Che nodded slowly, with a slightly moved expression on his face. Here, there is actually a Phoenix legacy. Moreover, the breath of the Phoenix persists all year round. The best explanation is that there is something left by the Phoenix in this Phoenix legacy!

What are the things left by the ancient mythical beasts!

Just thinking about this, the blood in Yun Che's whole body began to boil... One can imagine what a huge sensation it would cause if the news that there was a Phoenix ruins here spread.

"In that case, how did those evil people who wanted to seize the things you protect come in?" Yun Che asked. It is absolutely impossible for an ordinary mercenary group to have the ability to fight against the spirit beast, let alone the earth beast. Let alone a hundred people, even if the scale is expanded ten times, they will definitely be completely defeated when encountering an earth beast. The army was destroyed.

If we go all the way deep without encountering a spiritual beast or an earth beast, it would be even more impossible given the density of beasts in this Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range.

"I don't know." Feng Baichuan shook his head: "I want to know more than anyone how they got here. Perhaps, this is our fate."

Could it be that they also used the flying profound beasts that can fly to a high altitude? Yun Che pondered, but immediately rejected this conjecture. There are many profound beasts in this Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, including a large number of flying profound beasts. Even if you control ordinary flying profound beasts, it is impossible to enter. And profound beasts such as Storm Eagle and Giant Snow Eagle that can reach thousands of meters or even tens of thousands of meters in the sky can do it, but because of their terrifying air control ability, the number that can be controlled by humans is too small. Even the strongest sect in New Moon City, such as the Xiao Sect Branch, only has one, how could it be possible for such an ordinary mercenary group to have one.
