Chapter 415 - Chapter 415: Chapter 407 Initial Recognition of Master_1 (2/2)

Qin Niu looked at the Fire Phoenix exuding a king’s aura and felt a complex mix of emotions.

“`

I had thought that after its promotion to a Fire Phoenix, it would want to establish its might in front of me, its master, to gain greater freedom.

However, it possessed a grateful heart and actively thanked Qin Niu.

“What does ‘it’s not worth mentioning’ mean?”

The Fire Phoenix cocked its head and asked.

Its feathers had all grown back, and compared to yesterday’s pitiful sight of being a burnt bald chicken, it now looked completely different.

In the sunlight, its feathers radiated a myriad of colors.

Qin Niu subconsciously compared its feathers to the phoenix feather he had seen in the black market that day, which probably wasn’t authentic. He felt that the so-called phoenix feather looked more like the feathers of a fire bird before its promotion.

“‘It’s not worth mentioning’ means there’s no need to thank me. Because you are my pet, helping you to advance is what I should do. Just like one day, if I need your help, I believe you would assist me unhesitatingly.

We’re allies, growing together and helping each other.”

Qin Niu fully utilized the art of language to bind it together.

“The way you humans think is really strange! Before becoming your pet, you plotted against me in all sorts of ways, but now that I am your pet, you wholeheartedly assist me.” The Fire Phoenix’s ability to think clearly couldn’t compare to that of a real human.

It possessed the intelligence equivalent to that of a seven or eight-year-old child.

In the world of beasts, the law of the jungle, where might is right and interests are paramount, is their rule of survival.

Concepts like humans having eternal interests but no eternal enemies are difficult for them to understand.

“Before becoming my pet, would you have killed me if you saw me?”

“If you had trespassed into my territory, then certainly. But if we simply met in these mountains, I would not kill you, because you are too weak to pose any threat to me.”

The Fire Phoenix’s words were quite demoralizing.

Qin Niu was, after all, a Dual Innate Realm expert, with a weapon like the Ink Blade that could slay Spirit Qi Realm experts.

But in the eyes of the Fire Phoenix, he was as weak as an ant.

“So if I trespassed into your territory now, would you still kill me?”

Qin Niu countered.

“Of course not. We have signed a contract, bound by a soul contract, so I can’t hurt you anymore.”

The Fire Phoenix answered quite straightforwardly.

“That’s the difference. Now we have a soul contract, like friends, and you won’t hurt me. Instead, when I am in danger, you will help me. That’s why I am willing to help you advance with all my strength.”

Qin Niu tried hard to explain to it.

From its expression, it seemed to have reluctantly understood.

“Regardless, you helped me successfully undergo the phoenix nirvana, making you my benefactor. From now on, in these mountains, I will not allow any demon birds to harm you. Please, sit on my back. I want to announce to all the demon birds in these mountains that you are my master, and they are not to offend you,”

the Fire Phoenix said to him.

“Thank you for becoming my pet. I believe you’ll never regret it in the future. The nirvana is not your end, but just a new beginning for you.”

Qin Niu’s planting skills were his most formidable core ability.

Even stronger than all the pets he raised.

He seldom used his planting skills before, because he hadn’t needed to. His strength was still weak, and since planting took a long time to show results, he had focused his main efforts on cultivation and training pets.

Once he became an Immortal Master and no longer had to worry about lifespan, he could plant a large number of precious herbs just like the Fang Family.

Then, not only could he consume them himself, but he could also administer them to his pets, helping them enhance their strength together.

“I don’t regret it already. Come sit on my back!”

The Fire Phoenix urged him again.

As for the great prospects Qin Niu laid out for him, it seemed to take them lightly.
