"Tang Gu?" Zu An was taken aback; the name seemed somewhat familiar.
Da Feng explained, “In the Eastern Sea there is a Valley of Delight, where a giant Fusang tree grows. The ten Golden Crows dwell on the Fusang tree and emerge in turn, passing through Qu'a Mountain, Zengquan, Sangye, Yuzhong, Kunwu Mountain, Niaoci Mountain, Beigu, Nvji, Yuanyu, Lianshi Mountain, Beiquan, and finally arriving at Yuyuan, which is the place where the sun sets.”
"Wait, are the Golden Crows still coming out one by one in order?" Zu An was taken aback and asked hurriedly.
“Yes, if they don’t come out in order, won’t the earth be scorched?” Da Feng seemed unable to understand why he would ask such an obvious question.
Zuan and his companions exchanged glances. Their mission this time was to retrace Yi's heroic journey, and Yi was most famous for shooting down nine of the ten suns when they appeared together. Clearly, after passing through so many trials, these remaining nine suns would be their final challenge.
But now they know that the golden crows are still appearing in the correct order, which means they haven't caused any trouble yet. How can they complete their mission then?
They finally remembered that they had experienced the alternation of day and night in this secret realm over the past few days, but never the scene of ten suns appearing at the same time. They had taken it for granted before, but now they realized that this normality was the biggest abnormality.
Da Feng, unaware of their shock, continued:
"Tang Valley is located in the vast East Sea, where countless terrifying demons and ferocious beasts reside. With your current strength, you probably cannot reach there safely."
"What should we do then?" The group did not doubt its words. Although Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue had recovered most of their power, they also knew that if they encountered the octopus monster again in the deep sea, their chances of winning would be slim, since the ocean was its home ground.
And in this vast ocean, there are clearly not only the octopus monster, but also who knows what other terrifying beings exist.
Zu An, however, looked towards Da Feng and said, "I hope you can enlighten me."
The other person's tone of voice seemed to imply something else.
Sure enough, Da Feng puffed out his chest, a smug look on his face, his expression seemingly screaming "Beg me, beg me!"
Yu Yanluo was adept at understanding people's hearts and immediately responded with soft words of pleading.
Although Yun Jianyue was usually arrogant, the Demonic Sect valued practicality the most. She knew that if she couldn't complete this heroic journey, she would probably be trapped here and die. So she also started to flatter him.
However, she was used to being high and mighty, and her soft words sounded rather stiff, far from the gentle and warm words of Yu Yanluo.
As for Yan Xuehen, her personality simply prevented her from doing such a thing. She opened her mouth, but ultimately didn't say anything.
Da Feng nodded to Yu Yanluo with satisfaction, then several feathers on his wings suddenly turned into fingers, pulling Zu An aside: "Kid, that snake girl has the sweetest mouth. That long-haired human woman's words are insincere, and I feel embarrassed for her. As for that white-clad woman with the red belt, she's too cold and seems to look down on me."
Zuan said awkwardly, "You misunderstood, she didn't mean that."
Da Feng said, "Since you have the inheritance of the ancestor, you are naturally one of us. I will also tell you some private words. In the future, this snake woman can be the main wife, that long-haired woman can be the concubine, and that woman in white with the red belt can at most be a maid. Let's put her arrogance to rest."
Zuan was sweating profusely, thinking to himself, "If you knew what positions I would give my other female confidantes?"
"Senior, do you actually have a way to get to Tanggu?" He never expected the other party to be so gossipy, so he could only steer the conversation back on track.
“If someone else asked me, I wouldn’t even bother to answer. But since you’re one of us, then…” Da Feng pondered for a moment, then took a feather from his body. “Hmm, take this feather with you. Here’s how to use it… It will help you cross the sea and reach Tang Valley.”
Zu'an was overjoyed. He took the feather and immediately felt that it was full of the breath of wind and contained an unparalleled sense of wonder: "Thank you, senior!"
"Alright, alright, don't call me senior anymore. You have the inheritance of the ancestor, so you might be of a higher generation than me. Just call me Little... cough cough," Da Feng originally thought that he could just call him Little Feng, but that seemed too low-class, so he changed the subject, "By the way, don't blame me for not reminding you, it's okay to go to Tang Valley to broaden your horizons, but whatever you do, don't mess with those ten golden crows, or you'll be burned to ashes."
"Thanks for the reminder." Zuan smiled sheepishly, wondering what its reaction would be if it knew that he was going to deal with the Golden Crow.
I originally wanted to find out some information about the Golden Crow, but then I realized that this was too obvious. If a strong wind might affect it and it took back its feathers, that would be troublesome.
Anyway, the Demon Emperor is also a Golden Crow, and he already knows most of what he needs to know.
Due to various concerns, he ultimately did not ask.
Back with the three women, they asked Da Feng curiously what he had just said to him.
Zuan took out the feather, and the three women also showed joy.
However, Yan Xuehen quickly realized something was wrong: "He seemed to be talking about me just now, and the way he looked at me was a bit strange, like...disdain?"
Yun Jianyue frowned slightly: "Indeed, the way you look at me seems to show some pity?"
"Uh, you guys are mistaken." Zuan was unsure how to explain when he suddenly exclaimed, "Hmm, don't you guys feel it getting hotter?"
"It's definitely getting hotter." Yan Xuehen, with her fair skin and delicate bones, was extremely sensitive to temperature. She subconsciously raised her head and suddenly paused.
The group looked up and saw that there seemed to be one more sun in the sky, then two more, three more... and finally ten suns stretched across the sky.
The ground temperature rose rapidly, leaves and flowers withered and scorched, rivers began to boil, and all sorts of fires broke out everywhere.
Ten suns in the sky!
"Have these golden crows gone mad?" Da Feng stared in disbelief at everything. Just moments ago, it had been saying that the golden crows followed the rules, but it hadn't expected to be proven wrong so quickly.
"Oh my god, this is no good, my feathers are about to catch fire! I need to hide. Kid, I'm off!" As soon as Da Feng finished speaking, he disappeared into the distance. From afar, you could see that his whole body was starting to smoke, and it seemed that if he hadn't left any later, his feathers would have caught fire.
Zuan and the others were also drenched in sweat. Zuan even took off his shirt because of the heat: "How come everything was fine before, and suddenly the ten suns are in the sky?"
"Something unusual must have happened." Apart from Yan Xuehen, who was slightly better off due to her ice-type technique, Yu Yanluo and Yun Jianyue were also so hot that they couldn't help but loosen their collars and keep fanning themselves. Those patches of white made Zu An feel even hotter.
Meanwhile, in a distant valley, the Demon Emperor's face was ashen. If Zu An and his companions were there and saw him, they would probably be terrified.
He, who was usually so dignified, had never been so disheveled before, and his left arm had even been severed!
Golden blood dripped down incessantly.
