Yi Qing frowned and looked at him with a cool gaze, saying, “The Yin River of the Underworld.” Get lost little bastard!

“The Yin River?” Black Dragon paused. “What are you going there for? Since when did you decide? Why don’t I know any of this?”

“We’re not that close!”

Not… close?!

Black Dragon felt a pang in his chest. With tears in his eyes, he turned to Shen Ying. “Exalted Goddess…” Didn’t you say I’m your little cutie?

“We’re going to look for Shortie,” Shen Ying explained.

“Shortie?” Who’s that? Black Dragon stared blankly at her for a couple of seconds before he finally recalled. Isn’t that one of the three people that Exalted Goddess was looking for earlier? “Exalted Goddess, do you know where she is?”

“Yes,” Shen Ying answered, nodding. The Yin Qi in the egg was similar to the one they felt in the flower in Shortie’s room.

“In the Underworld?” Black Dragon looked confused. He glanced at the young Yi Qing and said, “But… But… Long Zhen isn’t back yet.”

“I will send a message to her,” Yi Qing responded.

“But…”

Black Dragon started to say something when a servant girl suddenly rushed toward Yi Qing and bowed, her face a mask of worry. “Young Master, I have bad news! The Supreme Divinity went to take revenge for Young Master and took a horse to Wu Qi Mountain alone.”

“Wu Qi Mountain?”” Yi Qing’s expression fell. “Speak clearly. What’s happened?”

“Supreme Divinity said that she found out that the Yin Qi in Young Master’s egg could have something to do with the phoenix clan. That’s why in a fit of anger she…” The servant girl kept pacing as she spoke “The phoenix clan is known to be very unreasonable. The Supreme Divinity might be taken advantage of this time.”

Yi Qing clenched his fists by his side and turned to the person beside him. “Master?”

“Let’s go to that whatever Xi Mountain!”

Wu Qi Mountain was the main base camp of the phoenix clan. The dragon and phoenix clan never got along. Sometimes, if they met on the roads, they would even get into fights. The dragon clan hated the way the phoenixes always looked down on others, and the phoenix clan could not stand the way the dragons were made up of all types of breeds – any worm, snake or fish could become dragons.

That was why even though both were divine races, both races never interacted much. Long Zhen was not an unreasonable person, however. She certainly had a good reason for marching up to Wu Qi Mountain in a fit of rage to take revenge.

Perhaps it was because Yi Qing had become a divine being, he was much faster with flying on the sword than he was before. What’s more, Long Zhen already had a transportation array that led straight to the phoenix territory. In less than an hour, they found themselves at their destination.

Before they arrived at Wu Qi Mountain, they saw flashes of lightning and heard thunder. From not far away, they saw grey clouds fill the sky, illuminated intermittently by the flashes of lightning. The sound of the thunder was deafening. Just below the dark clouds, there was a fiery red glow and flames everywhere. Hot air charged toward them.

Yi Qing conjured an isolation array to separate them from the mess around them. Then, they entered the half-stormy half-fiery land.

“Little Zhen, what are you doing?” A male’s voice sounded from amidst the flames on the ground and he sounded quite impatient. “When did I offend you? Why are you doing this to me?”

“Shut up!” Long Zhen was standing amidst the lightning and she looked absolutely outraged. Her voice was trembling as she said, “You dared to leave ghost immortal’s Yin Qi in my son’s egg. You should have expected that a day like that would come.”
