There was a huge statue ten thousand feet away.
This is a collapsed statue.
The statue depicts a woman holding a silver crescent blade and wearing red armor.
The woman sat atop a blood-red phoenix.
However, the statue is broken, the upper body has collapsed, and the blood-red phoenix is incomplete.
The group walked over and saw four large characters on the base of the statue.
However, the top two characters are blurred, leaving only the words "Saintess".
"This...this is Sister-in-law Yanran's past life?"
Abao exclaimed in surprise.
"Waaah..." Sensing someone approaching the statue, the crimson phoenix struggled to get up, worried that the people would damage the statue.
However, the Crimson Phoenix was too badly injured. After struggling for a moment, it collapsed in Xiao Yanran's arms, its breath growing weaker and weaker.
"Lingyun! Shenfeng is dying! Come quickly and save her!"
Xiao Yanran was extremely distressed and cried out.
Seeing Xiao Yanran crying her eyes out, Ling Yun felt a pang of heartache.
Everyone quickly flew over.
Immediately, the Primordial Sacred Flame, the Netherworld Purple Flame, and the Nirvana Fire Lotus Soul rushed out, releasing powerful fire-type energy.
At the same time, the phoenix in Yan Ruyu's sea of consciousness also flew out, releasing its fire-type energy.
The Crimson Phoenix also has another name: True Phoenix.
She was originally a fire lord, and fire energy was the best source of nourishment for her.
Then, Little Green Meow flew out of Lingyun's sea of consciousness and helped the Crimson Phoenix recover from its physical injuries.
The crimson phoenix quickly recovered and its aura stabilized.
Ling Yun rubbed the head of the blood-red divine phoenix and said:
"Her primordial spirit is too severely injured and needs to recuperate for many years. Place her in your sea of consciousness to nurture her!"
After saying that, Ling Yun patted Xiao Yanran's shoulder, separated her martial soul, and implanted it into the brow of the Crimson Phoenix.
"Your martial soul is a part of the primordial spirit of the Crimson Divine Phoenix. This part of the primordial spirit has been wandering in the starry river for a long time, just to find you."
Fortunately, she finally found you on the Golden Cloud Continent!
Ling Yun spoke up.
Xiao Yanran nodded slightly, "Back then, my martial soul was the Golden Crow. Just as I was about to fuse with the Golden Crow, the Crimson Divine Phoenix flew over and perfectly fused with me."
After saying that, she wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and prepared to send the crimson divine phoenix into her sea of consciousness to be nurtured.
However, the crimson phoenix gripped Xiao Yanran's clothes tightly with its claws, whimpering:
"Don't leave me again!"
Upon hearing the words of the Crimson Phoenix, Xiao Yanran burst into tears again, as if she were hearing the words of her beloved younger sister who had been missing for many years, whom she had finally reunited with.
She gently stroked the head of the blood-red phoenix and said softly:
"Okay, we'll never be apart!"
Ling Yun patted the head of the blood-red phoenix, shrinking her body to two feet in length so that Xiao Yanran could comfortably hold her.
Before long, the crimson phoenix began to count heavily, but its claws still gripped Xiao Yanran's clothes tightly.
Perhaps after so many years of waiting, I have never been able to fall asleep as peacefully as I have today.
The crowd fell silent, watching the master and servant reunite, then turning back to look at the broken statue. What magnificent feats had the master and servant accomplished countless years ago?
After a long silence, the group left the secret realm.
Ling Yun looked at the entrance to the secret realm and said in a deep voice:
"The statue was forcibly sealed off."
If nothing unexpected happens, it's to make the beings of the Tang Region forget them!
Upon hearing this, Lingxi's little face flushed with anger as she said:
"It must have been done by Tang Yu's enemies. They know that Sister Yanran and Sister Shenfeng represent the fighting spirit of Tang Yu."
Only by forgetting one's soul can one defeat the Tang Dynasty!
Hearing Lingxi's words, everyone felt angry, as Lingxi's words were usually accurate.
Thinking of the pitiful state of the Crimson Phoenix when they first met her, everyone gritted their teeth in anger.
Qiongqi roared angrily:
"If I find out who tormented Shenfeng, I will repay them a thousandfold!"
"So who exactly is Sister Yanran?"
Ling Shan asked, she was very persistent about this question.
"The next city is called Fire Phoenix City; perhaps we can find the answer there."
Everyone was sad for a while, so let's have a meal of "Dragon and Phoenix Bringing Prosperity" to cheer us up!
Ling Yun spoke with a smile.
Immediately afterwards, the group set off for Fire Phoenix City.
On the third day, the Crimson Phoenix awoke. Due to the injury to her primordial spirit, she only possessed the intelligence of a five or six-year-old girl, except for the presence of Xiao Yanran.
She became friends with Lingxi, Lingshan, and the purple-black Qilin.
Now she has become Lingxi's little follower.
Seeing the Crimson Phoenix's joyful expression, everyone felt relieved.
Three days later, the group arrived in Fire Phoenix City.
Upon seeing the crimson divine phoenix in Xiao Yanran's arms, the people of Fire Phoenix City immediately showed envy.
The True Phoenix is one of the most powerful beings, with formidable combat strength. To coexist with it or for it to recognize you as its master is a great opportunity.
When the people of Fire Phoenix City saw the Crimson Divine Phoenix, their eyes were filled with not only envy but also deep respect.
They didn't know why they felt respect, but it just came from within.
Some older, powerful cultivators would stop and watch the crimson phoenix, their eyes filled with reminiscence and tears.
Seeing these scenes, A Bao and the others knew that the Crimson Phoenix and Xiao Yanran must have saved Tang Yu.
However, their stories have been buried in the long river of history.
Then, the group arrived at the best restaurant in Fire Phoenix City.
Ling Yun and his group entered the private room. A huge pot sat on the table. After taking their seats, A Bao asked the waiter:
"Let me introduce the famous dish of Huofeng City: Dragon and Phoenix Bringing Auspiciousness."
The waiter gave a very enthusiastic introduction:
"Reporting to our guest, the Dragon and Phoenix Bring Auspiciousness is the most famous dish in our Fire Phoenix City. It is made with the unique Immortal Chicken and Red-haired Pig of Fire Phoenix City."
Combined with our secret seasoning, it tastes amazing and you'll never get tired of it!
Upon hearing this, Abao said with great disappointment:
"Oh, it's just a chicken and a pig! I thought it was a real dragon or phoenix!"
Upon hearing this, the Crimson Phoenix became displeased, patted A Bao's head, and said angrily:
"Ah Bao, what do you mean? You want to eat me, don't you?!"
Ah Bao chuckled sheepishly:
"No, no, that's not what I meant."
The waiter standing nearby said:
"Don't worry, sir. Since the Dragon and Phoenix Bring Auspiciousness dish is the number one dish in Fire Phoenix City, its taste is definitely not bad!"
Soon, the "Dragon and Phoenix Bringing Auspiciousness" dish was served, with two three-foot-long "divine chickens" and two three-foot-long red-haired pigs in the pot on the table.
It symbolizes good fortune and double happiness.
As is customary, Ling Shan tried the dishes first. She picked up a piece of chicken, then tried a piece of pork, and her eyes lit up immediately.
"Wow~ Delicious! This is the best chicken and pork I've ever eaten!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately picked up their chopsticks and began to feast.
During the meal, Abao asked the waiter:
"By the way, why do all the major cities in the Tang Region begin with the character 'fire'? Is there any significance to it?"
The waiter thought for a moment and replied:
"My grandfather said it seems to be to commemorate a war god."
Mars?
Everyone put down their chopsticks and looked at the waiter with curiosity.
The waiter spoke up:
"My grandfather said that the God of War was named Fire... Fire something again, oh right, the Saintess of Fire! That's right, the Saintess of Fire!"
