Yi Feng's heart skipped a beat. Fortunately, Sect Master Shen was not one to get to the bottom of things. She pretended not to hear anything and did not ask about the Spirit Lord again. For some reason, he felt that the Sect Master of Invincible Sect was easy to get along with. No wonder the Xuan Yuan Family and the Yin Family were so friendly to her.
More importantly, the Spirit Lord's first trip out was to accompany him to the Mirage Sea to look for suitable spirit beasts. If he told the elders of the sect about this, no one would believe him. The more he thought about it, the more excited he got. With the Spirit Lord's strength, not to mention a thirteenth-level Cloud-Bearing Beast, even a higher-level one would not be a problem. He could already imagine the looks of envy and jealousy on the faces of the other sects and aristocratic families after obtaining a high-level spirit beast.
After a quarter of an hour, he could no longer smile.
The Spirit Lord was really good at finding spirit beasts. He could sense the location of spirit beasts from hundreds of miles away. But … why was his first reaction when he saw a high-level spirit beast was to push it to Shen Ying's side?
"For me?" Shen Ying looked at the trembling little animal in front of her and paused.
Bai Ze did not make a sound. It just looked at her with bright eyes, its meaning clear.
"Thank you!" She thanked him and glanced at the trembling spirit beast that had fainted. She picked up one of its hooves and subconsciously turned to look at Yi Feng. "Director, do you know how to roast meat?"
"Huh?!" Yi Feng stared blankly for a moment before he realized what she was asking. He suddenly remembered Supremacy Lonemoon's instructions and shook his head. "No!"
"Oh!" She loosened her grip and threw it away.
The Spirit Lord was not angry. He turned to look for a second animal and pushed it to her.
This time, she did not take it. She turned and asked, "Director, do you know how to grill meat?"
"… No."
"Oh, don't."
The third animal.
"Director, do you know how to stir-fry meat?"
"… No."
"Oh, don't."
The fourth animal.
"Director, do you know how to boil meat?"
"… No."
"Oh, don't."
Then the fifth animal … the sixth animal … the seventh animal …
Shen Ying would ask him once for each animal and then reject him. Then, the Spirit Lord would throw the animal away.
Yi Feng: "…"
Why did she ask him such questions? Why did he always ask for the cooking method? Why was it that even though the Spirit Lord was rejected every single time, he still continued to capture spiritual beasts for her without a word? Why didn't anyone ask him if he wanted it? Why didn't they leave a single one for him?
Wasn't he the one who needed spirit beasts?

"You guys …" Shen Ying suddenly nudged Yi Feng. "Don't you think it's a little dark here?"
"Not too bad." His heart was even darker, as dark as dead ashes.
"Be careful!" Bai Ze, who had been silent all this while, warned coldly.
Before Yi Feng could react, he suddenly turned around and ran in their direction. In an instant, he was beside them.
Then …
He grabbed Shen Ying, who was beside him, and flew into the sky.
In the next moment, a black wind blade with a corrosive aura smashed into Yi Feng's head. In an instant, he was sent flying. He somersaulted a few times in the air like a falling leaf. If he hadn't reacted fast enough to ride his sword and set up a defensive formation, he would have died. Otherwise, he would have been pierced by the endless black wind blades.
The top of his head swelled up instantly. He subconsciously turned around and saw that the Spirit Lord was carrying Shen Ying, who was unscathed. They were standing in the air a few feet behind him.
Yi Feng: "…" He felt bitter.
Didn't they say they were here to capture spiritual beasts for him? They could have carried Shen Ying away, why didn't they help him along?
Bai Ze's cold face suddenly darkened. He looked down at the island below and the black wind blades that suddenly appeared all over the sky.
This aura was …
He took a few steps forward and carefully placed the person in his arms on Yi Feng's sword. He instructed, "Protect her well!"
Yi Feng was stunned. It was rare to see such a serious expression on Bai Ze's face. He nodded reflexively.
Bai Ze looked up at Shen Ying and opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but he could not help but blush. In the end, he did not say anything. In a flash, he turned around and flew back to the island he was on earlier.
"Spirit Lord …" Yi Feng wanted to ask but the other party had already disappeared without a trace. He could only look at the black wind blades that had suddenly appeared below him with a heavy expression on his face. But no matter how much he released his divine sense, he still could not penetrate those wind blades. He had never heard of a spiritual beast that could produce such black wind blades. And this aura, he had never encountered before. It was so cold … it was a little scary. "What exactly is in there?"
"It's a person," Shen Ying said.
"A person?" Yi Feng was shocked. "Who? Where? "
"I've never seen him before. You don't know him?" Shen Ying shook her head and pointed to the upper right corner of the island. "There! The one in black. "
Yi Feng looked in the direction she was pointing, but he could not see the person she was talking about. "I don't see him. When did you notice?"
"When I was on the island."
"On …" Then why didn't you say anything?
"I thought he was also here to catch small animals." As if she knew what he was thinking, she added, "Didn't you see him?"
Yi Feng: "…"
He felt a little stifled. Just as he was about to ask a few more questions, there was a sudden rumble of thunder on the island. There was a flash of lightning, and the wind blades that were flying all over the island disappeared instantly.
But even though the wind blades had disappeared, the surroundings were still dark. Even the sky was beginning to fill with dark clouds and the sea began to churn. Bai Ze retreated from the island and once again appeared in the sky not far away.
His expression became even more serious as he looked down. Indeed, in a short while, there was a rumble on the island. A huge long figure flew out from the island. It had the body of a snake, the tail of a fish, and a long black horn on its head. With a shrill cry, the figure rushed into the sky.
"Oh, it's grown longer." Shen Ying's eyes widened in surprise.
"This … this is …" Yi Feng was even more shocked as he looked at the figure rushing into the sky. "A flood dragon! This is a flood dragon! " He did not expect to see such a legendary creature in the Illusion Sea of the Azure World. And looking at its aura, could it be …
"Dragon?" Shen Ying paused. "Isn't a dragon supposed to have two horns?" That was what was said in the myths.
"A flood dragon is not a real dragon," Yi Feng explained anxiously. "It's just a flood dragon that is about to transform into a dragon. Although it can be called a divine beast, this one …" No matter how he looked at it, it did not look like a divine beast that symbolized auspiciousness.
The flood dragon circled in the sky, bringing with it an even thicker black Qi. Suddenly, it swooped down. In an instant, a huge suppressive force descended from the sky. Yi Feng felt a pain in his chest and a metallic taste in his mouth. The aura in his body dissipated and his legs trembled. He was about to fall from the sky.
Shen Ying reacted quickly and pulled him up. "What's wrong?" Why did he suddenly kneel down?
"Sect Master Shen, are you … alright?" Yi Feng's eyes widened in disbelief.
"What would happen to me?" Shen Ying looked confused.
"…"
