"What?"
The Clan Leader was shocked. He then hurriedly exclaimed, "Huo'er, release your spiritual energy and show me."
Upon hearing this, Huo'er did not say anything else and released his spiritual energy.
The Clan Leader was stunned when he sensed the spiritual energy surrounding Huo'er.
"That's right, you really have broken through to the Martial Saint rank and with a very steady foundation too. This... How is this possible?"
Everyone knows that during a Martial Supreme's breakthrough to the Martial Saint rank, one small slip of failure could mean that the cultivator would never be able to become a Martial Saint for the rest of their life! Yet this little girl was actually able to detach herself from the acknowledged abilities of the world! Where on earth had she come from?
The Clan Leader took a deep breath and stared at Gu Ruoyun with a serious look on his face, "Little girl, how had you managed to do this?"
"It is true that there are many impossible things in this world. However, there is one thing that can make everything possible! That one thing is pills." Gu Ruoyun smiled. "As luck would have it, I am a pill master."
A pill master?
The Clan Master's mouth dropped open in shock. The surprise that he was feeling only grew.
This little girl is actually a respected pill master?
After all, only a select few families have access to the power of pill masters in the First City.
Besides, he dares to conclude that the pill masters from those families would never be able to refine a pill which could help a Semi-Saint breakthrough to a Martial Saint!
"Sigh." The Clan Leader returned to his senses with great difficulty and sighed gently. A bitter smile then appeared on his elderly face. "Little girl, you have helped Huo'er several times and have saved the fire spiritual beast clan. I don't know how I should thank you."
"I am only here to tell you that the fire spiritual beast clan has been restored to freedom. From now on, you won't need to be hindered by any limitations." A clear and cold light then flashed in Gu Ruoyun's eyes. "Besides, I also wanted to give Huo'er a chance to come back and visit. I'll be leaving after this to sort out my business. As for what I've done, you don't have to keep it in mind."
"Clan Leader."
Huo'er's eyes flickered and he said, "You should know that too many on this mainland have been eyeing the fire spiritual beast clan. Even though we now have our freedom again, we would still be troubled by others in the future."
It was not easy for spiritual beasts to establish a clan in the First City. Hence, this was why so many humans covet the fire spiritual beast clan.
The Clan Leader sighed, he knows that Huo'er was right.
Unless he was to prevent the younger generation of the fire spiritual beasts from ever leaving the place forever, the freedom that the fire spiritual beast clan had reclaimed with great difficulty would be lost again if any of the young ones end up getting kidnapped and used as threats.
"So..." Huo'er grinned. "Clan Leader, why don't all of you serve my Master?"
Back in the Ancient Divine Pagoda, the Vermillion Bird was smiling so much that her eyes curved upwards into crescent moons.
She had certainly made a good choice in taking in this little brother. Even now, he was scheming in their Master's interest.
That was right!
If the fire spiritual beast clan continued to go on like this, other forces would scheme against them as well. By then, they would certainly lose their freedom again.
Hence, why not follow Gu Ruoyun instead.
At least she would never limit the spiritual beasts' freedom...
"Clan Leader, you can see how powerful my Master is at such a young age and she's a pill master too! Her future is limitless and the path is bright all the way. I have reached the rank of a Martial Saint in her hands. Can anyone else be compared with powers like hers? If the fire spiritual beasts were to follow her, we would not need to worry about the future. Besides, we would receive many benefits too."
Huo'er continued to tempt the Clan Leader with all the advantages of joining Gu Ruoyun...
