THE DIVINE PHOENIX

"Secondary princess consort? Who is that?" Wu Ruolan asked ignorantly as if she doesn't know anything.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Granny Yu spoke in a low voice, "Secondary princess consort's birth name is Mu Yaoyao. Third daughter of concubine of Imperial physician Mu."

Wu Ruolan thought, 'An imperial physician's daughter? That too, daughter of a concubine? Is that fourth prince crazy or what? Did he think that she will be able to defeat my master?'

As she thought of this, she turned her head to look at Wu Chiyou and was frightened by what she saw.

Wu Chiyou clenched her fists and blue veins popped out. Her beautiful face was terrifyingly cold.

Seeing Wu Chiyou's cold face, Wu Ruolan nearly burst into laughter.

This fourth prince is really stupid. He dug his grave himself. There was no need for her to do anything at all!

Suppressing her laughter, Wu Ruolan said, "Alright, Granny Yu, you may leave now."

Before her words were finished, the poor, old, frightened Granny Yu ran away.

Once Granny Yu went, Wu Chiyou suddenly stood up, changed her dress, walked to the window and opened it skillfully.

Startled, Wu Ruolan asked unwillingly, "Where are you going in the middle of the night?"

"To get the Immortal Spiritual fruit. What? Unwilling to come?"

"Willing! Absolutely willing!"

"Then what are you waiting for?"

Wu Ruolan closed her eyes for a second and in the next moment, she flew high into the night sky. In the sky, bright red flames surrounded her body. Even the brightness of full moon and stars seemed incomparable to her.

As the red flames became increasingly violent, a pair of beautiful golden wings that could cover a mountain stretched out from within the flames.

The red flames continued to scorch the night sky. A huge shadow emerged from the red flames and was elegantly stretching it's body.

At the same time, a horrifying spiritual energy power also emitted out from the creature.

"Heh. It seems like the Divine Phoenix is not afraid of being attacked by humans at all. Are you that eager to give your Phoenix blood for humans out of kindness?"

"I'm not afraid. I know that my master Wu Chiyou will save me."

Wu Chiyou: ...

Wu Ruolan: "Dearest master, did you find out the location of Immortal Spiritual fruit? Where is it?"

Seeing Wu Ruolan's eyes which were sparkling at the mention of Immortal Spiritual fruit, Wu Chiyou felt goosebumps. In a low voice, she replied "Frozen forest."

"Frozen forest? You mean the forest of hidden treasures?"

Seeing Wu Chiyou nod her head, Wu Ruolan was elated! Exited, she said "Then, let's go! This time, we will get a huge profit! We have to empty up the forest!"

Extending her hand, Wu Chiyou said "Come, hold my hand."

Wu Ruolan: "Are we going to teleport?"

Wu Chiyou: "Uh-huh."

As soon as Wu Ruolan held her hand, Wu Chiyou flung her sleeve and in the blink of an eye, they disappeared!

Northern border city, Yunlai Tower.

The capital of Junwu empire has four cities on four sides which act as a protection to the capital city. The city in the north side of the capital city is called Northern border city. This city is the closest to the Frozen forest. The only way to enter the Frozen forest was from this city.

In an unknown corner of the city, two figures mysteriously appeared without being noticed by anyone.

The Northern border city was full of cultivators who came to find the Immortal Spiritual fruit.

The Immortal Spiritual tree bears fruit once in hundred years and there is only one Immortal Spiritual fruit, so all the powerful cultivators from different countries fight for the fruit.

At this moment, Northern border city was filled to the brim not only with cultivators but also with people who came to watch the fun.

The Yunlai tower was the closest restaurant to frozen forest. Cultivators coming in and out of the forest would often stop by Yunlai tower so it was never short of customers.

Wu Chiyou and Wu Ruolan barely sat down when a pleasant voice rang down next to them. "There are empty seats. Do you mind if we sit here?"

Looking up, Wu Chiyou saw a pair of clear looking eyes.

Xing Shu? Right away, Wu Ruolan recognized the man who had the appearance of an outstanding cultivator.

If she remembered correctly, this guy was the fourth Prince's childhood friend and the both of them were best buddies.

Now that Xing Shu is here, did the fourth prince come here too?

Alarmed, Wu Ruolan looked around varily and sure enough, she saw a man in black robe standing behind Xing Shu.

It was none other than the fourth prince!

But, Northern border city is not near the capital city. There are many small cities in the middle. It will take quite some time to come here from capital city. That means the fourth prince started the journey in evening since he was already here by the night.

So, the thing about spending the night with secondary princess Consort was a ..... lie?!!

Xing Shu smiled at Wu Chiyou, "You are welcome to ignore us. We won't disturb you."

Ignore you? No way! Wu Ruolan rejected his suggestion in her head. Since the guys sat down next to them, she will do her best to extract information from them. They came here to find out about the cultivators who are here for the Immortal Spiritual fruit. She wants to make sure that no one will snatch her Immortal Spiritual fruit!

Moreover, this guy, Xing Shu loves to gossip and has a big mouth. She can definitely find information from him.

And if she remembered correctly, in fourth Prince's group, there are three members. Xing Shu, the big mouth is an spiritual array master. Qin Chuan is a medicine refiner. And the fourth prince is a cultivator. The three of them are best buddies.

But now, there are only two of them present. The third one must have gone out to collect information about the cultivators!

There was no way she would ignore them! Since they want to give information for free, she wouldn't refuse. And, there were so many empty seats in the restaurant, but they came here to sit beside her and her master. She didn't go to them. They came to her themselves! So she will definitely make full use of them!

But.....

What is wrong with this fourth prince? Why is he staring at her master like a hunter staring at his prey?

Was he attracted by her master's beauty?
