Phoenix Cry Firmament

“Yue Er.” Madam Sheng Yue shifted her gaze to Mu Ru Yue and, with a warm smile, continued, “Didn’t you want to know about Bai Ze? There should be some books in the Xiao family’s archive about that. I will bring you there for a look.”

Mu Ru Yue nodded slightly. “Alright.”

☀

Within the Xiao family archive.

The scent of books wafted over them once they stepped inside the building.

Mu Ru Yue let Madam Sheng Yue leave first as she searched through the archive alone. It was undeniable that the Xiao family archive really consisted of countless books. There were even some books that depicted the history of the continent and mountain load of books on martial skills…

Therefore, Mu Ru Yue found a place to sit and submerged herself within the sea of books.

It wasn’t until sunset that she finally walked out from that sea of books, her hand closed around one volume.

A ray of sunlight descended from the sky. Under this sunset, the shadow behind the young girl was elongated.

“Yan Jin, do you know anything about Bai Ze?”

The young girl lowered her head to look at the small black beast in her embrace.

The little beast didn’t even lift his head as it coldly snorted.

How could he know Bai Ze? Yet, there was a power emitted from that man that made him apprehensive. That power was similar to the other person’s power, the one who had previously trapped him in the Alchemy Book.

“Little girl, this senior wants to increase his strength.”

Yan Jin finally raised his head and, with a profound gaze in his black eyes, continued, “If you want to go to the central region, which is much more dangerous than Sheng Domain, this senior must improve his strength.”

Mu Ru Yue slightly raised her brow “You still haven’t told me how I am supposed to help you increase your strength.”

Yan Jin blinked his black eyes. “This senior didn’t tell you? I initially possessed great strength, but because of that Alchemy Book, I used up the majority of my power. Thus, the only way for this senior to regain his power is through medicinal plants.”

“Medicinal plants?”

“That’s right. This senior can convert the medicinal strength from medicinal plants and add it to his own power. I am currently at the False Xiantian grade. You will need to find a thousand-year medicinal plant for this senior. I will then use that power to break through to the Xiantian realm.”

A Xiantian practitioner was a top grade expert within Sheng Domain.

“I will ask my parents if they have a thousand-year medicinal plant in the Xiao family.” Mu Ru Yue looked at Yan Jin. If his power increased, then it would also be greatly beneficial to her.

She wouldn’t encounter much danger…

But she still didn’t know what stage Ye Wu Chen had reached.

That man could instantly kill a False Xiantian. Could it be he possessed strength above the Xiantian realm?

Mu Ru Yue became slightly melancholic. It seemed that she still had a long way to go before she could walk alongside that man. But no matter what, she definitely wouldn’t give up on that goal.

“It’s you!”

A sudden shriek was heard before her.

Xiao Min’s pale face glared malevolently at Mu Ru Yue. With tightly clenched fists, she forcefully suppressed the roaring sea of fury in her heart.

“Bitch, why are you in my Xiao family? Who allowed such a person like you to step into this place? Immediately scram!” Xiao Min was so angered that her chest heaved heavily, her beautiful finger pointed toward Mu Ru Yue’s nose as she shouted furiously.

In the dark, when Xiao Lin saw Xiao Min’s arrogant and despotic appearance, he frowned slightly.

Since Madam Sheng Yue worried about Mu Ru Yue’s safety, she had arranged for Xiao Lin to protect her from the shadows. She had even instructed that if someone sought to bring trouble to her daughter, he could instantly cripple them, so Xiao Lin had constantly been following Mu Ru Yue.

He couldn’t not appear now…
