37 Nether Phoenix
THE LITTLE GIRL stomped her feet harder, this time on Xiao Yue’s chest. It made the latter grunt in anger, fear, and shame. This seemingly prestigious and nobleman, Xiao Yue, was actually humiliated in front of those students who once feared him.
At that moment, they were all just laughing at him for being weak in front of a little girl.
The girl’s lips curled up as she interestingly stared at the three old men going down the arena. “Oh, they already noticed who I am?”
“You crazy woman from the Underworld Prison! What are you doing here in Da Sishen? Do you want to start a war again?” the headmaster, whose golden robe shone even brightly as the sun’s rays landed on it. “Remember what your Underworld Prison did to this realm?”
His gaze at the little girl didn’t contain any compassion. Only intense hatred and indignation. Veins popped out from the sides of his eyes as his breathing got more intense.
The first supreme instructor frowned. He was in the same generation as the headmaster, and he knew how hard it had been for the latter. The latter’s family was slaughtered by Underworld Creatures. He vowed to the heavens that he would kill every Underworld Creature he would find..
“Old man, now is not the time to lose your temper,” the first supreme instructor said, silencing the clamoring crowd.
“Shut up,” the headmaster said as his nose fumed, still fixing his gaze on the little girl. His aura rose as his cultivation level at the Eighth Stage of the God Emperor Realm exploded. “I will kill her even if it means killing myself.”
The little girl’s mouth twitched. “What an idiot.”
Leaving Xiao Yue unconscious, she faced the headmaster. “You should know that I am not from the Underworld Prison. We come from the same place, the Nether Universe. However, I am from Asura Prison, a realm in the Nether Universe, much stronger than the Underworld Prison. Old man, do you know that I can kill you with a slap? In my eyes, you are not even worth a fly.”
Her gaze threw daggers at the opposite part. The two supreme instructors hurriedly backed off as they felt the pressure was getting stronger.
This little girl…
‘Is she a God Emperor?!’
Everyone in the crowd gasped at this scene. They didn’t expect this little girl would be so strong. The entire Guile City shook; even the beasts on the city’s outskirts were alarmed and quickly hid in their respective hideouts.
“I am just here to find my little sister. Where is she?” The moment she said this, the whole area dimmed. It was as though the sun’s rays had lost their purpose.
After a while, a majestic figure appeared on her back. The headmaster’s eyes shrank. He didn’t know this little girl, but he definitely knew the legends about the fiery bird that was gazing at him like fire. Its body was covered with flames. It had the same eyes as the little girl, the left being light blue and the right, yellow-orange.
Suddenly, the body of the little girl was enshrouded with frost and flame. Her left-half side was growing colder while her right-half side was growing hotter.
“Nether Phoenix?” the first supreme instructor muttered as he stared at the little girl. “I didn’t know this species truly existed. Indeed, the legends can’t be there unless there is some truth in them.”
It also left the second supreme instructor dumbstruck. However, the pressure they were experiencing was much lower than the headmaster’s. The latter was already kneeling. He was feeling regretful. This little girl wasn’t from the Underworld Prison.
All this time, the Underworld Prison had been the common enemy of the entire Da Sishen. After all, the Underworld Prison experts once tried to subdue and conquer the realm. Not only did they attempt to do this once, but they also did it thrice, causing a quite devastating war in which several noble warriors were slaughtered in the hope of defending Da Sishen. That included the headmaster’s family.
“Again, where is my sister?” she muttered once more as the pressure grew even stronger.
This tremor from Guile City did not alarm Wang Zhu and Wang Lao, as they were still immersed in the illusion of Yang Lujia’s array. They despaired and regretted recklessly barging forward.
On the other hand, Yang Lujia, who was explaining to his second disciple about his big fat shrimp, glanced at the Guile City’s direction. “This aura, it was stronger than a God Emperor?” He then licked his lips and grinned like a gangster. “Interesting.”
Not long after, Yang Lujia’s eyes shone when the Devouring Void Dog Egg began to shake. Narrow fissures slowly made their way down until the large egg was cracked open. Surprisingly, under his expectant eyes, he did not see any dog within the egg.
However, when he peeked at the inside of the egg’s unbroken half, his eyes glittered with excitement. He could finally have a pet this time! Moreover, this dog was particularly small. It looked cute. Yang Lujia knew that it was still at its infant stage. So he didn’t bother.
Besides, dogs become the cutest when they are still young.
At that moment, the puppy was sleeping soundly. Its closed eyes made it even more adorable. Its dark brown fur emitted majesty. From this, Yang Lujia knew he had hit the jackpot!
As he was about to extend his hands to the puppy, Fortuniel’s voice interrupted his mind.
[Congratulations to the host for hatching the Devouring Void Dog Egg!]
[The Master-Sevant Contract has been initiated and completed!]
[Host, you may now give the Devouring Void Puppy a name.]
“Name?”
However, before he could even do so, he stared at the puppy in a daze. It was because another notification from Fortuniel popped up.
[Ding! Fortuniel has discovered a Double S-Class Genius!]
[New Mission: Recruit and acknowledge the Nether Phoenix Clan’s SS-Class Genius. The reward will be issued upon acknowledgment from both parties.]
