One could see two slightly long, multicolored feathers atop this large birdâs head. Also hidden within its cyan wings were streaks of colorful feathers, barely visible.
This is not any ordinary Cyan Bird. Damn it, itâs a Cyan Phoenix!
Regrettably though, its lineage is somewhat mixed, greatly restricting its growth.
If that wasnât the case, those men just now wouldnât even have needed Chen Changâanâs help. This bird alone would have been enough to deal with them.
"Chirp~!"
Chen Changâan glanced at the large bird then reached out his hand. The next moment, a misty aura drifted from his hand.
This aura was from the Saint Medicine Chen Changâan had stored away (most of which he had taken from Shen Xuzi). He had extracted some of the life essence from these medicines and infused it into the body of the Cyan Bird.
Buzz, buzz, buzz~!
After Chen Changâan had infused it with the life essence, strange changes began to occur.
The Cyan Birdâs body suddenly emitted a bright white light, as if nourishing its body.
Under the nourishment of this light, its injuries were visibly healing at an astonishing speed.
Not only the wound, even the lost feathers began to regrow slowly.
After about ten minutes, Chen Changâan finally withdrew his hand, and at this moment, all of the Cyan Birdâs injuries had been completely healed.
Chirp, chirp~!
The Cyan Bird, its injuries having healed, joyfully chirped.
Perhaps realizing that Chen Changâan was its savior, it even affectionately rubbed against his palm with its head.
"No need to thank me."
In response to the Cyan Birdâs affectionate gratitude, Chen Changâan shook his head, then turned to Chen Yi, who was standing to one side and said,
"That boy has now become my disciple, pledging allegiance to me. Youâve forged a bond with him, meaning youâve also forged one with me."
"Given the bond, thereâs no need to feel grateful for the help."
"Chirp, chirp~!"
Seemingly understanding Chen Changâanâs words, the Cyan Bird gave him one final nuzzle before it released him.
After all of this was done, it returned to its position behind Chen Yi.
"Thank you, Master."
Seeing Chen Changâan heal the Cyan Bird, Chen Yi promptly expressed his gratitude with a bow.
Chen Changâan shook his head, "No need for such formality, it was only right to help this great Cyan Bird which has been kind to you."
Then he said, "Are you ready? If you are, we should depart now. Weâre waiting on you."
As he said this, Chen Changâan pointed towards Mao Ruxue, who had already prepared the Flying Boat.
It was not the same one as before.
Ever since they returned from Saint State, or more accurately, after Chen Changâan became the Supreme Saint, Mao Ruxue felt that the previous small Flying Boat no longer befit Chen Changâanâs status.
So she went to the Sky Sect and purchased a medium-sized one, keeping the old, smaller Flying Boat for herself.
In Mao Ruxueâs words, should anyone ever ask, sheâd say it was the only Flying Boat that she and Chen Changâan had ever used - unique and irreplaceable. Then she planned to exploit the rarity and sell it at a high price.
As for where Mao Ruxue got the money to buy a medium-sized Flying Boat, she never mentioned it and Chen Changâan never asked.
"Master, I..."
At this moment, Chen Yi suddenly faltered.
He looked at the large Flying Boat before him. Having been on the Central Continent for over a year, he naturally knew what it was.
This was the kind of advanced flying apparatus that only the esteemed Great Cultivators could afford.
He was curious to ride on one, but given his status, he couldnât. Moreover, he now had other concerns.
The next moment, Chen Yi looked at Chen Changâan and said,
"Master, how about I donât come with you? You can go on ahead and I will join you later. Is that okay?"
This silly child.
Hearing Chen Yiâs words, Chen Changâan couldnât resist smiling and shaking his head.
With just one look, Chen Changâan knew what Chen Yi was worried about.
"Cyan Bird, we are on our way back to the Great Wilderness. Would you like to join us?"
Chen Changâan then turned to the Cyan Bird rather than Chen Yi and asked.
"Chirp, chirp~!"
Hearing Chen Changâanâs words, the Cyan Bird nodded and flapped its wings twice.
It was willing.
"Master! Thank you, Master!"
Seeing what Chen Changâan had done, Chen Yi dropped to one knee in gratitude.
"Get up."
Chen Changâan used a spell to pull Chen Yi back upright:
"Donât say too much. If youâre ready, letâs go."
"Yes, Master, I am ready. We can leave at any time." Chen Yi nodded firmly.
Chen Changâan said, "Good, letâs get on the Flying Boat."
.....
After a while, a massive Flying Boat unexpectedly lifted off from Tian Shui region.
It soared toward the clouds, heading straight for the far-off Great Wilderness. Along the way, the echoing sound of the wind pierced the clouds.
After traveling for an unknown length of time, Chen Changâan suddenly felt the speed of the Flying Boat slow.
"Junior Sister, whatâs the matter? Why are we stopping?"
Chen Changâan asked Mao Ruxue, a puzzled look on his face.
Because at this moment, they were still quite far from the Great Wilderness.
"Elder Brother, itâs not like that, weâre above my house, I want to stop off for a moment."
Mao Ruxue glanced at Chen Changâan and said somewhat bashfully.
What?
Seeing Mao Ruxueâs expression, Chen Changâan was immediately taken aback.
