Bai Ling listened quietly to Jiang Feng's words, then fell into a brief moment of contemplation. As time passed, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she excitedly raised her head and said to Jiang Feng, "Sir, given our current situation, we actually have two viable paths!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng immediately turned his gaze towards Bai Ling and asked with a hint of curiosity and anticipation, "Oh? Tell me the specific method."
Bai Ling cleared her throat and began to explain slowly, "First, we can continue northeast and briefly stop at the edge of the demon realm. This way, we'll be safer. Second, we can openly and honestly use the teleportation array to travel through."
However, when Jiang Feng heard this, a puzzled expression appeared on his face. He frowned and questioned, "Using the teleportation array? Isn't this the same as walking into a trap?"
Facing Jiang Feng's question, Bai Ling smiled faintly and replied confidently, "Don't worry, sir. You don't need to show up in person. We can arrange for Jiang Wu to go to Xinghai City, which is near Yunv Mountain, not too far from here. We will hide in the space and attach ourselves to Jiang Wu to move forward together. That way, we shouldn't be noticed by others."
Jiang Feng suddenly understood, slapping his forehead and bursting into laughter. "Haha, Bailing, you truly are a natural born leader! You're so brilliant and sharp!" As he spoke, his gaze involuntarily fell on Bailing, and Sanniang's image involuntarily surfaced in his mind. With this thought, Jiang Feng secretly pondered: After this successful breakthrough, I must go and find the whereabouts of these three people. I just don't know if they have joined a sect...
Just as Jiang Feng and Bai Ling were discussing the journey, a boy about 10 years old walked over!
Jiang Feng looked at the boy who had suddenly appeared, and found that he exuded a familiar aura. Just as everyone was surprised, the boy's body suddenly burst into flames, and the light became more and more intense, gradually enveloping the boy.
This was the human form of the little fire ape. His long, flaming hair flowed freely behind him, swaying gently in the breeze like dancing flames. Beneath his high nose, his lips were as bright and juicy as cherries, revealing a unique spirit. His eyes, like deep, fiery crimson gems, gleamed with cunning and cleverness. His skin was a healthy tan, his muscles flowing and graceful, like a meticulously crafted work of art. He exuded a warm and vibrant aura, and the unique wildness of the demonic species remained lingering, giving him an appearance of both uncanny beauty and a powerful, oppressive intensity.
During the ten years in the Chaos Space, Bailing took extra care of the little Fire Ape, even giving him treasures like the Transformation Golden Lotus. After Bailing's explanation, the little Fire Ape also knew that Jiang Feng was not responsible for his mother's death.
Jiang Feng looked at him in confusion: "Is he the little fire ape? He actually cultivated into a human form?"
Bai Ling smiled and said, "Young Master, his name is now Jinhuo. I named him that. This child is extremely talented. When he was breaking through the Nascent Soul stage, I gave him the Transformation Golden Lotus. Now he has reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul stage. And, Young Master, I think this child is very likely not the Golden Eyed Fire Ape. The Golden Eyed Fire Ape's eyes are all golden, but this child's are purple."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Feng opened his divine eyes and looked into Jinhuo's eyes. Jiang Feng's heart tightened, thinking that this little fire ape must be a mutated divine beast, and would be a great help in the future!
Jiang Feng's look made the little fire ape nervous and it hid behind Bailing.
Jiang Feng said: "Jinhuo, as I said before, when you have the strength, I can let you go, but you must swear an oath to the heavens, promising not to tell anyone about the chaos space. After all, this concerns the life and death of everyone here.
Jinhuo thought for a moment and said, "I don't want to leave here for the time being, but I don't want to be your spirit beast either!"
After hearing this, Jiang Feng's face instantly darkened, his brows furrowed, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Since you are so reluctant to recognize me as your master, why do you still cling to my side? This place is not far from the Demon Realm. You can go there. With your own outstanding talent, I believe you can also make a good career!"
Jiang Feng's words clearly meant he was ordering them to leave. Seeing this, Bai Ling, standing by, became extremely anxious and quickly advised, "Young Master, please calm down. Please cool down for a while. Jin Huo is still young, after all, and doesn't understand many things. I hope you can give him some more time. I believe that in time, he will surely grasp the deeper meaning and principles of this."
However, Jiang Feng remained unmoved. He simply snorted coldly and said firmly, "I don't owe him anything. I risked my life to save him, thinking he would be grateful. But I never imagined that not only would he be completely ungrateful, but he would rely on his status as a divine beast to look down on us humans and sneer at us! I, Jiang Feng, am not the kind of person who would be soft-hearted. There is no room for negotiation on this matter today. Send him away!"
Seeing Jiang Feng's fury, even the little fire ape panicked, momentarily at a loss. He knew full well that the exceptional cultivation environment within this special dimension far surpassed anything found in the outside world. Furthermore, having lived here for so many years, he had already cultivated deep bonds with numerous monsters. However, getting such a proud beast like him to willingly accept a human as its master was a difficult feat. At least for now, it seemed he couldn't accept it anytime soon.
Just as Jiang Feng turned to leave, the little fire ape knelt on the ground with a plop and whispered, "I promise you, please don't chase me away."
Jiang Feng was secretly delighted, the little fire ape had fallen into the trap!
Jiang Feng cleared his throat and said, "How about this, for Bai Ling's sake, I'll let you stay for now. As for the matter of recognizing you as my master, I'll consider it later when you're sincere."
Jiang Feng's actions stunned Bai Ling, who was always very smart!
