Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
An Lin looked at the gorgeous little girl standing before him, and a peculiar feeling welled up in his heart.
“What are you looking at?” Little Xiaolan blushed at the sight of An Lin’s intense gaze.
“I feel like I’m very fortunate to be able to see you in all stages of your growth. We’re almost like childhood friends now, right?” An Lin’s eyes lit up.
“Er...” Little Xiaolan faltered slightly before patting An Lin’s head with a smile on her face. “Childhood friends grow up together, but you didn’t revert back to your younger self with me. Our duo is the middle-aged man and the little loli.”
An Lin: “...”
An Lin had no response to this. Her words did appear to ring true!
Either way, he was very fortunate to be able to see Xu Xiaolan in all of these stages of her life!
An Lin grabbed onto Little Xiaolan’s little hand. “Let’s go see if our Vermilion Birds have been good or not.”
Little Xiaolan stepped forward, and her azure dress danced around her, revealing sections of her flawless, well-proportioned little legs. A faint smile appeared on her face. “They’re having their trials today, and I’m very much looking forward to seeing how they’ll do as well.”
After a week of heaven crushing true intent lessons, it was time to test the fruits of their studies.
The Ancient Dragon Empress was feeling quite uneasy. She felt like these Vermilion Birds were the worst students she had ever taught. They were constantly obsessed with their Great Empress Vermilion Bird, and none of them had any heaven crushing intent.
It was such a waste of their cultivation bases!
“Let the trial begin. Use your Heaven Crushing Techniques to attack me! There’s no need to hold back.” The Ancient Dragon Empress had one hand behind her back and one hand extended in front of her.
Boom boom boom...
Balls of powerful holy flames rose into the sky.
“For Great Empress Vermilion Bird!”
“The heavens must be slain!”
“Kill all of Great Empress Vermilion Bird’s enemies!”
“Charge!”
The Vermilion Birds rushed toward the Ancient Dragon Empress.
Their holy flames were imbued with extremely terrifying heaven crushing true intent, as if they were going to destroy all things that stood in the way of their Great Empress Vermilion Bird. This will was embedded deep in their bloodlines, each and every cell within their bodies, and even their path to seeking dao.
The Ancient Dragon Empress suddenly recalled the insanity Cassidy and the other Holy Disciples had displayed for An Lin’s blood.
Their unyielding faith and conviction fueled their heaven crushing true intent, thereby resulting in devastating powers!
So what if all these Vermilion Birds did was suck up to their Great Empress?
Their faith in and loyalty to their Great Empress Vermilion Bird was engraved deeply in their bloodlines and dao realms. This was the holiest and most regal faith in this world!
None of the living beings in all the worlds could compare in faith to the Vermilion Bird Tribe. In particular, the six Vermilion Bird Sages had been greatly rewarded by Little Xiaolan’s kindness, and they were even more reverent toward her as a result.
At that moment, the Ancient Dragon Empress felt like she could see nine suns crashing down toward her.
The terrifying temperatures made space twist and crack open.
“How could this be?!” The Ancient Dragon Empress’ expression shifted drastically as her heaven crushing true intent surged around her.
Boom boom boom!
The suns exploded.
The heavens tremored, and the earth quaked.
The surrounding grass and soil were instantly reduced to smoke by the insanely scorching temperatures.
Devastating powers swept forth in a frenzy, threatening to engulf all things in this world.
An Lin was given a massive fright upon seeing this, and he immediately set up a spatial barricade to protect the Four Nine Immortal Sect.
An incredible scene took place on the grasslands.
Nine suns of different colors exploded violently as holy flames erupted in all directions.
The flames came quickly, and they also disappeared quite quickly.
Soon, the nine Vermilion Birds reappeared on the grasslands, while everything around them had been reduced to a mass of inky blackness.
The Ancient Dragon Empress stood before them with her robe in tatters and her delicate skin charred in patches as she panted heavily.
“I... I didn’t say you could attack me all at once...”
The Ancient Dragon Empress was about to vomit blood.
The Vermilion Birds faltered upon hearing this before sheepish expressions appeared on their faces.
“Then... should we attack one at a time?”
“No! There’s no need for that!” The Ancient Dragon Empress shuddered before hurriedly shaking her head. “You’ve all graduated!
“You have all perfectly merged your faith into your heaven crushing true intent and unleashed extremely powerful heaven crushing might. I can tell you with no exaggeration whatsoever that all of you are only just below the level expected of heavenly disciple candidates...” the Ancient Dragon Empress announced joyfully.
As the fourth heavenly disciple of the Heaven Crushing Sect, the Ancient Dragon Empress was very elated.
She had initially thought that these Vermilion Birds had very mediocre heaven crushing intent. However, only after this trial did she discover that they had ridiculously fantastic heaven crushing aptitudes. With the inclusion of these super mighty figures, the Heaven Crushing Sect had received another significant boost!
The Ancient Dragon Empress was very happy, but An Lin and Little Xiaolan were very dissatisfied.
An Lin was very disappointed. “So none of these Vermilion Birds are even at the level of heavenly disciple candidates?”
Little Xiaolan shook her head. “What a disgrace. Why did I even bring you all here if you can’t even compare to heavenly disciple candidates? To think that there’s not even a single useful one among nine of you...”
All nine Vermilion Birds instantly collapsed to the ground and sobbed with humiliation and guilt.
“I’m so sorry for how useless I am, Great Empress Vermilion Bird!”
“I’m a disgrace to this world!”
“Waah... Please don’t doubt our loyalty!”
“I’m willing to kill myself to atone for the dishonor I have brought upon Great Empress Vermilion Bird!”
All of the Vermilion Birds yelled in unison with shame etched on their faces.
Ancient Dragon Empress: “...”
Did they have some sort of misunderstanding toward heavenly disciple candidates?
The heavenly disciple berth was extremely difficult to obtain...
To be just under heavenly disciple candidates was already an extraordinary feat!
Why were they so humiliated?
The Ancient Dragon Empress felt like she had been dealt another heavy blow.
Where did the Four Nine Immortal Sect keep finding these freaks?!
“Teacher, Teacher, is it my turn yet?” Bai Xiaohu looked at Ancient Dragon Empress with anticipation in her large, watery eyes, making her appear particularly adorable.
The Ancient Dragon Empress was quite elated to see this. She had an adorable student after all.
Bai Xiaohu didn’t attack her along with all of those Vermilion Birds. What an obedient little tigress.
The Ancient Dragon Empress took a deep breath and repressed her injuries from that prior trial before changing into a new set of clothes. “Come!”
Bai Xiaohu’s gentle expression suddenly transformed into an extremely ferocious and violent one. “Roar! True love cannot be beaten! I’m going to f*cking eat you!”
...
Four Nine Immortal Sect.
At the Purple Star Pavilion rehabilitation center.
The Ancient Dragon Empress lay on a bed with a suicidal expression.
Big Sister Bai Ling stood beside the bed with a gentle smile on her face. “Don’t worry, you’ll be fine after a few days of rehabilitation.”
An Lin, Little Xiaolan, Bai Xiaohu, and the Vermilion Birds all held flowers as they looked at the Ancient Dragon Empress with expressions of gratitude, guilt, and remorse.
This was their valiant teacher!
