1139 Yu Huang: I’m Beautiful
Yu Huang’s decisive rejection made Prime Master Chengwen feel a little curious and surprised.
As a Prime Master, he took the initiative to invite an ascendant from a low-level small world, so no matter what the reason was, Yu Huang should not have rejected him. At least, she should not have rejected him so bluntly.
Wasn’t she afraid of offending him and the faction behind him?
However, now that he had a favor to ask of Yu Huang, he could only lower his stance. Prime Master Chengwen told Yu Huang, “Yu Huang, actually, our Patriarch wants to see you.”
Yu Huang became even more confused when she heard this. “May I ask who your Patriarch is?” She didn’t even know which faction Prime Master Chengwen was from, so she naturally didn’t know who the Patriarch he was talking about was.
Seeing that Yu Huang knew nothing about his identity, Prime Master Chengwen was even more surprised.
Could it be that before participating in the screening test, they had not carefully studied the background and identity of all the staff? Prime Master Chengwen took the initiative to introduce himself. “I’m from the Vermillion Bird Clan and I’m the youngest elder of the Vermillion Bird Clan. Our Patriarch is Prime Emperor Linfeng, who has the highest cultivation level and is the oldest in the clan.”
Prime Emperor Linfeng…
Other than Madam Brulee and the Sect Master of the East God Palace, Prime Emperor Linfeng was the third Prime Emperor powerhouse in the Central Continent that Yu Huang knew of. However, on the Holy Spirit Continent, Prime Emperor powerhouses were the most powerful existences. There was only one Prime Emperor on the entire continent, Dino.
From the looks of it, the difference between a peripheral world and a super Great World was really huge.
“Vermillion Bird Clan…”
On the maglev train the night before, Yu Huang registered an account on the official website of the Central Continent Beast Tamer overnight and checked the distribution of factions in the Central Continent. She discovered that the publicly acknowledged strongest faction in the Central Continent could be summarized in one sentence—
One palace, two clans, and three sects.
The palace referred to the East God Palace.
The two clans referred to the Vermillion Bird Clan and the Lamia Clan.
The three sects referred to the Luo River Flower God Sect, the Gaochuan Free and Unfettered Sect, and the Sea Gazing Ghost Sect.
Prime Master Chengwen didn’t look that old. He was able to successfully advance to the Prime Master Realm at his age not only because of his talent, but also because of the support of wealth and his powerful family.
Yu Huang had long guessed that Prime Master Chengwen must be from a prominent family in the Central Continent.
Unexpectedly, he was actually from the Vermillion Bird Clan.
The Vermillion Bird Clan was one of the top factions in the Central Continent. Yu Huang couldn’t understand why Prime Emperor Linfeng wanted to see her. After all, she was new here and didn’t have any fame, so she shouldn’t be noticed by a Prime Emperor-level expert.
Unless…
Yu Huang couldn’t help but think of an incident from the past.
It happened seven years ago.
When she was 19 years old, Yu Huang got accepted into the Divine Realm Academy. During the summer break before school started, she ran to the Abyssal Origin Forest alone to train for a period of time. There, she was almost killed by a Vermillion Bird demon beast. Fortunately, Senior Su Tingxue’s soul woke up in time and killed the Vermillion Bird demon beast, saving Yu Huang’s life.
After that, Yu Huang dug out the Vermillion Bird’s Monster Core and refined it. Then, she successfully obtained the Vermillion Bird Demon Beast’s flying technique and the ‘Sky Full of Stars’ technique.
Could it be that the little Vermillion Bird demon beast was from the Vermillion Bird Clan of the Cang Lang Continent?
Did Prime Emperor Linfeng of the Vermillion Bird Clan sense the remnant Vermillion Bird bloodline in her body and want to kill her to avenge his clansmen?
Yu Huang felt that her guess was most likely right.
In that case, she couldn’t meet Prime Emperor Linfeng all the more.
With a smile, Yu Huang said, “Sir, it’s my honor to be invited by Prime Emperor Linfeng. Unfortunately, it’s currently the screening test competition and according to the rules of the screening test, examinees are not allowed to leave the examination hall during the competition. It wasn’t easy for me to come to the Cang Lang Continent from a small world, so I can’t lose my right to participate because I violated the rules of the competition. As the supervisor of the examination hall, I don’t think you will watch helplessly as I lose my right to participate because I violated the rules, right?”
Yu Huang only used one sentence to render Prime Master Chengwen speechless.
Yu Huang knew that Prime Master Chengwen was a smart person and thought that since she had already rejected him, Prime Master Chengwen would retreat.
However, Prime Master Chengwen was still unwilling to give up. Instead, he asked bluntly, “Yu Huang, could it be that you’re worried that our Patriarch will harm you?”
Seeing that Prime Master Chengwen was so persistent, Yu Huang was dismayed.
She was giving him a way out without being rude, but he insisted on pretending not to understand. In that case, he shouldn’t blame her for being rude.
Yu Huang sneered and asked Prime Master Chengwen, “I’m beautiful and have no powerful background, so if a stranger asked me to meet in private, shouldn’t I be worried about this?”
Prime Master Chengwen was speechless.
He really didn’t know how to react now.
If their Patriarch knew that Yu Huang thought so badly of him, he would probably be enraged.
Prime Master Chengwen said patiently, “Yu Huang, you can rest assured that the strength you displayed today is enough to make all the factions in the Central Continent look at you in a different light. You are a rising star in the Central Continent now. Even if our Patriarch wants to harm you, millions of people are watching.”
That was true.
However, Yu Huang only had one life, so she would never risk her life.
“No.” Yu Huang still refused.
Seeing that Yu Huang was so cautious, Prime Master Chengwen felt exasperated yet relieved.
It was better for a girl to be cautious than rash.
Seeing that Yu Huang was unwilling to leave with him, Prime Master Chengwen could only tell Yu Huang his true intentions. He said, “Yu Huang, you might not know, but the ancestor of the Vermillion Bird Clan, Lord Vermillion Bird, was the most loyal servant of the Divine Feather Phoenix Clan in the ancient era. Later, because his cultivation level was high and he was loyal to his master, he obtained the admiration of the Divine Feather Phoenix Clan’s Patriarch, who abolished Lord Vermillion Bird’s servant status and promoted him to a guest elder. Divine Feather Phoenix Clan’s Patriarch also betrothed a female warrior in the clan to him as his wife. The child born from the union of these two adults was the founder of the Vermillion Bird Clan.”
“In that case, the ancestors of the Vermillion Bird Clan and the Divine Feather Phoenix Clan are considered family. Yu Huang, you don’t have to worry that our Patriarch will harm you.”
After hearing Prime Master Chengwen’s words, Yu Huang was still unmoved.
She said rationally, “Your ancestor was a loyal servant of the Divine Feather Phoenix Clan, but that doesn’t mean you will be loyal to me. Even people born from the same mother are willing to fight amongst siblings, let alone descendants who are thousands of years apart…”
Even blood-related siblings could fight to the death for glory and wealth. Besides, the Vermillion Bird Clan respected the Divine Feather Phoenix Clan, not her, a Beast Tamer who had merely awakened the Divine Feather Phoenix Beast Form.
Prime Master Chengwen was rendered speechless again.
What an eloquent young lady.
