Chapter 54

"Is the Creation Sword alright?" Ye Zi patted Luo Heng on the back.

Luo Hengzhi nodded: "It's nothing, she just fainted."

He was knocked unconscious after just one sword swing. It seems his old wounds were quite severe. I wonder what he went through with his former master!

The former owner?

God?

Could it be...

Ye Zi looked at Luo Hengzhi and thought of a possibility!

"Little Ye Ziheng!" Master Yunqing suddenly appeared.

"Master." Luo Hengzhi only let go of his wife when he saw Master Yunqing, and excitedly flew over with Ye Zi in his hand.

"What happened?" Master Yunqing rushed over, looking flustered. He was relieved after checking that his two disciples were unharmed. "Did a Mahayana cultivator just appear here?"

Ye Zi: "Master, that Mahayana cultivator used a wisp of his soul to possess Liang Lu, who was listed in the Book of Merit. When we discovered it, Liang Lu's soul was already gone. Also, that person's target was Luo Hengzhi."

"It's Hengzhi, then you..." If it really was aimed at Luo Hengzhi, then weren't the two of them in great danger just now? Master Yunqing checked again to see if Luo Hengzhi was injured.

“Master, don’t worry. We obtained a sword in the secret realm before, and it was that sword that saved us,” Luo Hengzhi said immediately when she saw the worry in Yun Qing Zhenren’s eyes.

"It's good that you're alright." Based on that spiritual vein, Master Yunqing could guess that the secret realm must have a lot of good resources.

Ye Zi: "Master, I learned from that person that he seems to be very wary of Luo Heng's cultivation."

Master Yunqing: "It's very likely that person is very clear about Heng's physique."

“We think so too, but we still didn’t get much information out of them,” Luo Hengzhi said.

"The most important thing is that you two are unharmed." Master Yunqing was also surprised that it was some Mahayana cultivator who would target Luo Hengzhi in this way.

“Liang Lu’s accident shows that searching all the way here might not be enough time. It would be better if you two went back with your master. Huo Zhongkui can call the rest of them to see if they are willing to come to our Lingju Temple for protection.” For safety’s sake, Master Yunqing did not intend to leave his two disciples outside any longer.

Luo Hengzhi refused to go back: "Master, although it is dangerous outside, there are also more opportunities. Although it is safe to hide back in Lingju Temple for the time being, it is not a long-term solution."

Ye Zi agreed and chose not to go back for the time being.

Master Yunqing did not insist in the end and returned to Lingju Temple alone.

Luo Hengzhi dispelled the formation and released Luo Yilongbao and the others from the car.

"Master." Long Bao and Huo Feng Xiao Mo rushed over to Luo Hengzhi and Ye Zi.

Life and death hang in the balance. Luo Yi was truly terrified this time. His hands are still trembling, and he is still shaken. It feels like he is back in that car accident. He couldn't protect Luo Hengzhi, he couldn't do anything, and he was still so useless!

Lu Fei couldn't say a word either. He raised his hand and patted Luo Yi. They were just too weak. Many times they needed to rely on Luo Hengzhi's protection, whether in the business world or now.

Back at Yunmeng Villa, Luo Hengzhi and Ye Zi went to the backyard to meditate and regulate their breathing, Xiao Mo returned to Ye Zi's sea of ​​consciousness to cultivate, while Luo Yi and Lu Fei cultivated in the front yard.

After this experience, everyone was deeply moved and had only one thought: to become stronger!

Including Huofeng and Longbao, Huofeng and Longbao were lying on their master in a daze. It was rare for them not to be holding food like before. The two little ones stayed in the living room very quietly!

At this moment, Long Bao never felt that three years was so long. Huo Feng also regretted that she had transformed into human form prematurely because she ate too much, causing a surge in spiritual energy that affected her output.

Fire Phoenix broke the silence: "Dragon Treasure, we need rare and precious materials."

"At a time like this, you're still thinking about food." Longbao looked at Huofeng with disdain. "We need to get stronger."

"What I'm talking about is becoming stronger, which is why we need rare and precious materials," Fire Phoenix said.

“Where are there so many rare and precious materials? When the cultivation world was slaughtered, all the rare and precious materials disappeared along with it. There are survivors except in secret realms, but how can you encounter a secret realm every time?” Long Bao slumped on the sofa. “Even the holy water of my dragon clan couldn’t break the three-year confinement on my body, let alone anything else.”

"Your holy water and your family's inherited precognitive arts are from the same lineage, how could he possibly break your precognitive seal?" Fire Phoenix insisted, "Therefore, we need rare and precious materials!"

Longbao: "How did you know I used precognitive abilities?"

"You suddenly became attached to Luo Hengzhi, wasn't that obvious!" Huo Feng glared at Long Bao with disdain. "Your father has been very good to you, and you still have holy water, inheritance, and family business. Me, I'm the one who was unwanted. I have nothing but myself."

"Alright, I'll go with you to find rare and precious treasures. Don't sound so pitiful. You still have me, and you have two masters." Long Bao didn't dare to compare his misery with Huo Feng's. Huo Feng was indeed more miserable than him. At least he had a family business and spiritual fruits to fill his stomach. He was tired of eating the spiritual fruits in his spatial rift.

However, the dragon and phoenix were not in harmony in ancient times. The fire phoenix could not enter the dragon family's territory, nor could it eat anything from the dragon clan's territory, as it would get diarrhea. At first, the dragon and the fire phoenix did not believe it, but the fire phoenix ate a fruit and had diarrhea for three days and three nights. From then on, the fire phoenix never bothered the dragon to pick fruit for it to eat again.

Long Bao was truly helpless when it came to Huo Feng's feeding. Huo Feng could only rely on picking up bits and pieces from here and there, and over time, the child became an omnivore due to hunger.

Longbao: "But how do we find them? We're both terrible fighters right now, we might get picked up by someone else if we go out. Where can we even look?"

"Don't you go online? Who said we have to go out? We can shop online." Fire Phoenix pulled an iPad out from under her bottom.

"Yeah, why didn't I think of online shopping?" Longbao lamented that his thinking was still out of touch with the times.

"But do we have any money?" Longbao asked another very practical question. "We don't have a single penny on us!"

Fire Phoenix looked up: "It's okay if you don't have money. You can receive the goods first and pay later. We can do live streaming to make money during the shipping period. Live streaming is quite profitable now."

"Alright, that's all we can do." Fire Phoenix kept looking at the pictures and refreshing them. After an unknown amount of time, she finally saw something unexpected.

"Longbao, come and see if this is a Fire Phoenix Stone." Fire Phoenix clicked on the picture, which showed a pitted stone that glowed red.

"Really?" Long Bao exclaimed in surprise, not expecting to find such rare and precious herbs online. "How much is this?"

"This person doesn't recognize this thing. He went online to ask what it is, saying he picked it up in the mountains while he was out playing, but he didn't say he wanted to sell it." Fire Phoenix looked at the text under the picture.

"If he's not selling, what should we do?" Longbao leaned over to read the comments from netizens. "This comment advised him not to pick up stones randomly, saying they have radiation and told him to throw them away. This was posted yesterday. He probably already threw them away, right?"

"Should I try sending him a private message?" Fire Phoenix tried sending a private message, not knowing if the other party would reply.

After waiting a while without a reply, Huo Feng and Long Bao continued searching. The Fire Jade Stone was useful to Huo Feng, but Long Bao needed to continue looking for more. However, Huo Feng and Long Bao searched the internet for another hour but still couldn't find a single rare treasure.

"No, Fire Phoenix, it seems I can't get rid of this restriction on me." Long Bao slumped on the sofa. "I don't know if the great... great ancestor can help me remove it, but the great... great ancestor was already injured, and he must have been exhausted from that battle just now."

“My connection hasn’t been restored either. How about we start a live stream? If we see a lot of people, we can tell them what we’re looking for and ask them to help us find it,” Fire Phoenix suggested.

“Great idea! There’s strength in numbers, let’s start a live stream.” Longbao said and got right to it.

After Huofeng downloaded the live streaming platform, Longbao brought over a stand.

"What's the name of our live stream?" Longbao asked.

"What can we do?" Fire Phoenix asked the fatal question.

Long Bao was stunned, and said embarrassedly, "You know, I can only fly, but Fire Phoenix, you can turn into a baby, otherwise we'd call you Baby Turner."

Fire Phoenix wanted to roll her eyes: "Who would want to see a bird turn into a human?"

"Telling birds to turn into people is also an option; it sounds really exciting," Longbao said, clapping his paws.

"What's going on? Does anyone really want to see a bird turn into a human?" Fire Phoenix was questioning its very existence. "It would be more explosive to call it the ugliest dragon in the world."

"Okay, let's start by turning the bird into a human. If no one watches, we'll change it to the ugliest dragon." Dragon Baby was really going all out to cultivate.

"Okay, let's do it your way." After Fire Phoenix finished speaking, the two little beasts began their first live broadcast.

Fire Phoenix and Dragon Baby stared at the number of people entering, which remained consistently at 0. The two little beasts didn't believe it, so they rubbed their eyes and looked again, but it was still 0.

"Is the internet down?" Longbao checked the network. "It's connected, so why isn't anyone coming in?"

"Wait a little longer," Fire Phoenix said.

Ten minutes have passed!!!

"Still no one here. I'm going to get something to eat. I'm a little hungry. You keep an eye on things for now." Fire Phoenix pulled Dragon Treasure into the screen, and Dragon Treasure's big face filled the entire screen.

"Fire Phoenix, take more, I want some too," Long Bao called out to Fire Phoenix.

"Oh, someone's come in." Longbao finally saw that the 0 had become a 1.

"Hello, welcome to the Bird-to-Human live stream." As soon as Long Bao finished speaking, the 1 turned into a 0 again. Long Bao froze, standing there stiffly, and shouted, "I finally got one in, why did they leave already? Fire Phoenix, did they think I was ugly?"

In just over ten minutes, Longbao began to have deep doubts about himself!

"It's alright, Dragon Baby. No matter how ugly we are... we're still a divine dragon." Fire Phoenix comforted Dragon Baby's wounded little heart. "Come on, never mind, eat something, and we'll think of something after we're full."

"Okay." Longbao flew over unhappily, then happily started eating with Huofeng. The two little beasts were so engrossed in eating that they didn't even bother to look at the screen.

Unbeknownst to Longbao and Huofeng, while they were eating, the number of people increased rapidly, exceeding 10,000 in just ten minutes, and the barrage of comments exploded.

"What kind of animal is eating snacks?"

"The point isn't that they're eating snacks, but that they're chatting and talking."

"The livestream's name isn't 'Bird Turns into Human,' so why aren't they changing?"

"They're really talking, saying it's delicious."

"That ugly one is kind of cute, oh so ugly-cute, I love it!"

"One is a bird, what species is the other ugly one?"

"They're just eating, why aren't they looking at the screen? Where's their owner? Make them look at the screen!"

When Longbao got up to get a drink of water, he glanced at the screen.

"Oh my god, Fire Phoenix, come quick, someone's here!" Long Bao leaned closer to the screen to look. "Fire Phoenix, there are 20,000 people."

"20,000 people already? Hello everyone, netizens," Fire Phoenix greeted the screen.

"They actually called me an online friend? This is the first time I've ever heard of someone calling someone an online friend."

You should call them "family."

“Yes, I saw other people’s live streams, and they seemed to be calling out to their family members.” Long Bao nodded to Huo Feng.

Fire Phoenix: "But we're not the same species, so why are we calling each other family?"

"That's right." Longbao asked the screen in his childish voice, "Netizens, what do you want to see? Can I show you a bird turning into a human?"
