Phoenix clan

  The Ten Thousa Mountain Range is a paradise for profous. Violent ah Profous roam the mountains, and rumors say three Sky Profous also dwell there.

  At night, Yun Wuji and Little Fairy arrived at the mountain range, nding on the ground. Their goal was naturally the Phoenix trial.

  It was night, and the roars of profous could be heard frequently. However, when they both released their aura, all beast roars around them ceased.

  "Wuji, I am hungry," Chu Yue as she nded.

  "You just ate a few ho. You're at the Sky Profound Realm, you go without food for a long time," he replied in a helpless tone. Ever since she tasted his cooking, she had beeering him to cook at every opportunity.

  "I want to eat! Please~ please~," she pleaded, grabbing his hand with both of hers and making a pitiful expression.

  "Alright, stop I'll do it," Wuji couldn't resist her ess aed.

  'How great it would be if she could maintain this personality after rec her memories,' Wuji thought.

  "Wait here, I'll quickly cateat," he told her before flying off in search of suitable prey.

  "Screech!" A few mier, with a loud screeg sound, a Thunder Eagle fell to the ground. Just like that, one of the three overlords of this mountain range died.

  "Fried chi sounds good," Wuji nodded after killing the beast.

  He quickly found his prey because this ignora took the initiative to attack him while he was flying, and Wuji fi off with a simple wind bde, cutting its head.

  He stored the bird ihe pearl and teleported back to Chu Yue.

  "You're back so quickly," she excimed, surprised to see him return.

  "A prey sent itself to my door, perhaps it couldn't bear seeing you starving," Wuji nodded and said with a smile.

  "Hmph, you're teasing again. Quickly start cooking!" she pouted, urging him to prepare the food.

  "If you tinue like this, you'll really bee fat," he shook his head helplessly and began cooking.

  He actually liked this kind of iion, having someone he could slightly open up to, especially if it was a beautiful woman. Since he came to this world, the only person he had e to trust was his dead foster father.

  Chu Yue was cute and siderate, and sometimes she did silly things that made him ugh. Although they hadn't spent a long time together, he had already started developing feelings for her. He could sehat she also had feelings for him.

  "Hmm, it's so delicious!" Yue said, sav the fried bird meat that resembled fried chi, her haing on her fa enjoyment.

  Yun Wuji watched her eat for a while before he sat cross-legged.

  Tomorrow, he would go to the Phoenix trial, and from the novel, he khat there ossibility that the Phoenix spirit might want to see his memories. However, this was something that Wuji could never allow. His memories were things that must remain unknows he would take to the grave.

  All along, he was pting a way to elimihis risk, not only for the Phoenix Spirit but also for the Azure Dragon and Golden , and most importantly, the Heaven Smithing Devil Emperor.

  With his talent, he might not care much about the divine legacies here, but the Heaven Smithing Devil Emperor was another matter. She would defiry to probe his memories wheurned, and he doubted he would be strong enough to refuse her.

  So he came up with the idea of self-hypnosis; he would temporarily seal some memories and only unlock them after triggering the seal. The trigger would be something he could naturally prepare, so it could be activated when necessary.

  -------

  There were many violent profous in the ter of the mountain rahe tration of beasts prevented many people from approag.

  In the middle of this vast mountain range, a small vilge was situated. Strangely enough, the profous never approached the vilge, as if a mysterious power was keeping them at bay.

  "Why is there a vilge here?" Chu Yue asked, surprised by the vilge's existence.

  "It's a long story. I'll expin ter," Yun Wuji replied, walking towards the vilge.

  A few middle-aged adults dressed in rough clothing stood at the front of the vilge, casting weary and vigint expressions at them. Each had a shallow red mark on their foreheads, shaped like a cluster of burning fmes.

  "Greetings, esteemed lords, my name is Feng Bai, the current leader. May I know who you are?" The man in front bowed respectfully. He was secretly shocked and afraid. They had lived in this pce for a very long time, and this was the first time humans had reached their vilge.

  This is the paradise of profous. They fiercely oppose human intrusion, attag any who enter. At the same time, the deeper you go, the higher the level of profous get.

  Only the exceptionally ceous and capable to arrive in this region. However, Those strong enough to survive rarely bother with such a trivial pce.

  The man feared that these newers might harbor ill iions toward them.

  "I'm Yun Wuji, and this is my panion. We're here for the Phoenix Ruins," Yun Wuji stated pinly. With his strength, there was no need for deceit or schemes.

  Feng Bai and others froze; his pupils distinctly tracted slightly. He lifted his bowed head abruptly and looked at Wuji in shock!

  "How did you know?!" One of the men behind Feng Bai shouted.

  "That's none of your business. I'm here to accept the Phoenix trial. If I succeed, I promise to remove the curse on your ," Yun Wuji stated pinly, giving them a choice. "Of course, you try to stop me." He wasn't ed with their decision; they had no way of stopping him anyway. He offered them a choice out of respect.

  "You know about the curse..." Feng Bai's expression bees plicated at the mention of the curse.

  "Your is cursed by the phoenix spirit, suppressing the profound energy of everyoo the tenth level of the Elementary Profound Realm. Lead me to the trial, and I will lift the curse once I succeed," Wuji affirmed with a nod.

  He could forcibly break through the seal for the trial, but it might affect how the Phoenix spirit viewed him. He wasn't Yun Che who had the Heretic god veins.

  Feng Bai stood silently for a while, taking a deep breath before speaking solemnly, "I believe you mean no harm; I sense no malice from you. But you must uand, that the Phoenix trial is perilous. Many of our aors who dared it perished."

  He chose to promise instead of endangering the lives of his smen.

  For years, their had lived in seclusion, always cautious not to provoke the phoenix spirit. Now, he had no choice but to promise for the sake of his . As for the promise of lifting the curse, he didn't take it seriously.

  " leader..." One of the men behind him whispered.

  "Please follow me," Feng Bai raised his hand to stop the man.

  "Is there really a phoenix remnant in this pce? How did you know that?" Chu Yuechu whispered to Wuji as they followed Feng Bai.

  "Curious, are you?" He lowered his head and whispered in her ear.

  "Yes!" Chu Yueodded, feeling a tickle in her ear.

  "It's a secret~"

  Chu Yuechu gred at him fiercely.

  Feng Bai led them to the rear mountain region, in front of them, a massive sigil several meters tall was embedded in the mountain wall. A beautiful red erged from the entire sigil, glowing bright and dark at times, as a pattern of numerous scarlet fmes that fiercely burned, y at the ter of the sigil.

  "So this is the seal," Yun Wuji muttered, gazing at the sigil on the wall.

  "This sigil seals the rui behind by the phoenix. Only those with the phoenix bloodline open it with fresh blood," Feng Bai expined.

  Beyond the seal formation, the interior of the Phoenix trial ground revealed a vast, ft stone chamber. Unnaturally spacious, it stretched at least a hundred meters in both length and width.

  The stone chamber had a very long stoair on both sides and an upper floor above. There was a walkway extended several dozeers ahead, leading to a gently rotating red-colored seal formatioical to the oside.

  Feng Bai had already brought Yun Wuji and Chu Yue before the trial ground's seal formation as they stood there.

  "Be careful," Yue gently squeezed his hand.

  "Hmm, don't worry," Wuji nodded fidently."

  "Are you ready?" Feng Bai asked as he stood before the seal formation.

  "Yes."

  Feng Bai bit his finger, letting a drop of blood fall onto the seal formation. Instantly, a red light fshed across the seal, spinning rapidly before disappearing. Ahead of them, a strange, dark red entrance appeared.
