Riding a horse, Gu Qingfeng chatted with Ouyang Ye as they walked. When the sun set, Gu Qingfeng finally arrived at the foot of Yunxia School's mountain.
In front of him was a towering mountain range. The mountain range was like a fiery red dragon crouching there. It was also as gorgeous as the sunset in the clouds. That was how the Yunxia School got its name.
Gu Qingfeng still vaguely remembered that the reason why the mountain range was like a cloud was because Yunxia School occupied a very rare fire spiritual vein. The spiritual energy contained in this fire spiritual vein was much better than ordinary spiritual energy. It could be considered a rare spiritual vein resource. With this rare fire spiritual vein, Yunxia School had cultivated many experts for thousands of years.
As far as the eye could see, the mountain range was still the same majestic mountain range from five hundred years ago. However, the Red Cloud Sect on the mountain range was no longer the Red Cloud Sect of the past. Compared to the past, the current Red Cloud Sect was much more imposing. Majestic buildings were spread all over the mountains and fields. In particular, the various powerful Spirit Arrays were dazzling.
According to Ouyang Ye, Yunxia School now had three mountains, six halls, nine peaks, and twelve courtyards. There were more than 10,000 disciples under Yunxia School. These were only the disciples. There were 24 gangs under Yunxia School, and the number of gang members was uncountable.
Gu Qingfeng couldn't help but exclaim from the bottom of his heart that it was amazing.
The inheritance of a sect wasn't as simple as it seemed. The amount of effort required was unimaginable to others. Many ancient sects had declined after being passed down for generations. Gu Qingfeng had seen this kind of thing many times. Moreover, there had been a catastrophe a hundred years ago. Not only had the Red Cloud Sect not declined, it had become even more powerful than before. It was indeed worthy of admiration.
At the foot of the Red Cloud Sect's mountain was a green lawn. There were many people gathered on the lawn. They should be the Red Cloud Sect's disciples. These disciples gathered in twos and threes. Some of them were laughing and playing, while most of them were comparing notes on martial arts.
Along the way, many disciples greeted Ouyang Ye and called her Senior Sister.
"You seem to be very popular."
Ouyang Ye replied proudly, "Of course, I am an inner disciple."
Gu Qingfeng smiled and didn't say anything. When he was young, he stayed in Yunxia School for a few years. He knew the rules of Yunxia School. The status of the handyman was the lowest, followed by the outer disciples. The inner disciples had a higher status. In addition, there were direct disciples and so on. their status was even higher.
Speaking of the Red Cloud Sect's rules, Gu Qingfeng was deeply moved by the fact that there was no seniority in the sect. Even if you had been in the sect for more than thirty years, as long as you were still an outer sect disciple, you would still have to call an inner sect disciple 'Senior Brother' or 'Senior Sister'.
What was even more ridiculous was that if an outer disciple encountered a problem in cultivation and wanted to give advice or something, they had to offer it. Otherwise, those training masters wouldn't have time to care about them.
This was only an outer disciple. As for the handyman, he had no status at all. He didn't even have the qualifications to ask for advice. Gu Qingfeng had a deep understanding of this. He remembered the years when he was a handyman in Yunxia School. Even now, when he thought of those days, he felt a little sad.
However, although he felt sad, Gu Qingfeng had experienced many things in his life. He had been judged by the Way of Immortality, the Way of Diabolism, and the Way of Heaven. He had even asked for a position like the Nine Serenities. However, the most unforgettable memory was the years when he was a handyman in Yunxia School.
Although it was very difficult, Yunxia School was, after all, the place where he first embarked on the path of cultivation. Moreover, it also carried many of his unforgettable firsts.
After 500 years, Gu Qingfeng entered Yunxia School again. His feelings were quite complicated, especially when he looked at the little guys practicing martial arts on the lawn. The memories of his youth poured into his mind like a flood bursting through a dam.
While he was reminiscing, suddenly there was a commotion on the lawn, followed by a sharp chirping sound. Looking over, there seemed to be a flame soaring in the air. When he focused his eyes, it was actually a bird. This bird was red all over and was quite large. When it stretched out, it was about one meter long. When it soared in the air, it was like a phoenix reborn in the fire.
Gu Qingfeng was experienced and knowledgeable. He recognized at a glance that this bird was not an ordinary bird, but a very rare spiritual bird called the Scorching Sun Fiery Bird. This bird's ancestor was the Vermillion Bird, so its bloodline was relatively noble. The rarest thing was that this bird was very sensitive to the aura of the fire spirit. If it was used to find a fire attribute spiritual vein, it would definitely be accurate.
"Your Yunxia School is really good now. You even raise the Scorching Sun Fiery Bird. This thing is very rare. Where did you get it?"
In his impression, the Scorching Sun Fiery Bird was very rare. In ancient times, it was almost extinct. Gu Qingfeng had only seen it a few times. At this moment, seeing this rare Scorching Sun Fiery Bird in Yunxia School really surprised him.
"What do you mean where did you get it? Why are you speaking so harshly?"
Ouyang Ye glared at him and then explained, "The Scorching Sun Fiery Bird ran into our Yunxia School decades ago. Now, it is our Yunxia School's treasure."
Ran in by itself?
Gu Qingfeng pondered that the Scorching Sun Fiery Bird should have been born after the catastrophe of the heavens and after the recovery of all things. As for it running in by itself, this was also possible. The Scorching Sun Fiery Bird was very sensitive to the aura of the fire spirit, and Yunxia School occupied a very rare fire attribute spiritual vein. There was an 80% chance that the Scorching Sun Fiery Bird took a fancy to Yunxia School's fire attribute spiritual vein.
The catastrophe of the heavens, the recovery of all things, it was really the recovery of all things … Even the Scorching Sun Fiery Bird that was almost extinct in ancient times was born.
"The Scorching Sun Fiery Bird is usually very quiet. It always stays at Fire Cloud Peak and rarely comes out. I have been in the school for two or three years and have never seen it fly in the air. What's going on today …"
Ouyang Ye raised her head and looked at the Scorching Sun Fiery Bird soaring in the air. She couldn't help but say, "So beautiful … It really looks like the legendary Phoenix. Eh … Why is it … Not good!"
Ouyang Ye's expression changed greatly because she realized that the Scorching Sun Fiery Bird was flying towards her. She didn't have time to think. The little girl reacted instinctively and jumped up and ran away. Perhaps it was only after she ran away that she realized that Gu Qingfeng was still there. The little girl wanted to go back and pull Gu Qingfeng, but when she turned around, it was already too late.
The Scorching Sun Fiery Bird was rushing over at an extremely fast speed. In a moment of desperation, Ouyang Ye shouted.
"You idiot, what are you doing in a daze? Run!"
Seeing that Gu Qingfeng was standing there motionless, Ouyang Ye knew that this guy must have been scared silly. Seeing the Scorching Sun Fiery Bird quickly flying over, Ouyang Ye's heart stopped beating. She stared with her eyes wide open, held her breath, and stared without blinking.
She didn't know why the Scorching Sun Fiery Bird suddenly appeared today, nor did she know why the Scorching Sun Fiery Bird was rushing towards Gu Qingfeng. At the same time, she also didn't know what terrible thing was going to happen.
She thought that Gu Qingfeng would be eaten or burned to death?
Only when she saw the Scorching Sun Fiery Bird flying over and happily flying around Gu Qingfeng did her hanging heart settle down.
Wait a minute!
Why is the Scorching Sun Fiery Bird flying around this guy?
Moreover, it seemed to be very excited and happy. As it flew, it let out ear-piercing cries.
How could this be?
Looking at the scene in front of her, Ouyang Ye couldn't figure it out. She had been in the sect for more than two years and would occasionally go to the Fire Cloud Peak to see the Scorching Sun Fiery Bird. However, every time she went, the bird was very quiet and always had a listless appearance. Why did it become so excited when it saw Gu Qingfeng today? So happy?
Why was this happening?
Not only was Ouyang Ye dumbfounded, but the disciples on the lawn were also dumbfounded with their eyes wide and small eyes wide open.
In the field, Gu Qingfeng stood there quietly, looking quite puzzled. His pair of quiet eyes slightly narrowed as he sized up the Chiyan Fiery Bird.
To be honest, he really didn't think that the bird would come for him.
Could it be that the bird sensed the Serene Fire Breath on his body?
After Gu Qingfeng reached the Nine Serenities, he had used the Nine Underworlds Fire to temper his body. Every hair on his body, every inch of his skin, every bone, and every drop of his blood contained the Serene Fire Breath.
Although this bird was more sensitive to the Fire Spirit Breath, it couldn't sense the Serene Fire Breath on his body, right?
Absolutely impossible.
Gu Qingfeng was still confident about this. The Serene Fire Breath on his body could not be sensed by even the Immortals and Demons. How could a little bird, not to mention that it had the bloodline of the Vermillion Bird, even if...
En?
Thinking of the Vermillion Bird.
Gu Qingfeng suddenly understood and couldn't help but laugh. He shook his head and finally understood why the bird came for him. It should be because it had the bloodline of the Vermillion Bird.
The Nine Underworlds Fire was one of the ancestral fires between heaven and earth. It had given birth to many powerful existences, and the Vermillion Bird was one of them. Thinking of how he had used the Nine Underworlds Fire to temper his body, could it be...
"This little guy couldn't have mistaken me for its ancestor, the Vermillion Bird, right?"
Looking at the Fiery Sun Fiery Spirit Bird flying around him happily, Gu Qingfeng shook his head helplessly and smiled.
The Fiery Sun Fiery Bird seemed to be able to understand his words and excitedly let out an ear-piercing cry.
At this time, the lawn of the Yunxia School was already crowded with people. The disciples rushed over, and some seniors of the Yunxia School also appeared one after another, looking at this scene in disbelief.
"Who is this person?"
"I don't know. He shouldn't be a disciple of our Yunxia School. He seems to have come with Senior Ouyang."
"Why is the Fiery Sun Fiery Bird flying around him?"
"I heard that the Fiery Sun Fiery Bird is very sensitive to the Fire Spirit Breath. Could it be that this guy has a rare Fire Spirit Root?"
"And it should be a very high Fire Spirit Root."
"Maybe it's the Treasured Body of the Fire Spirit!"
"Look, even Elder Mude is here!"
When an old man wearing a white robe and holding a fly-whisk appeared, everyone in the field bowed respectfully and greeted him as Elder Mude.
When he heard Elder Mude's name, Gu Qingfeng was startled and turned around to look.
