Chapter 1727: Chapter 678: Jade Consort

Making the Divine Bird lay an egg on the spot?

Behind them, dozens of people exchanged bewildered looks. This was truly a shock to one’s values, quite bizarre.

Even as outsiders, they found this demand absurd.

The Blood Phoenix’s feathers bristled all over, more precisely, they stood upright.

It glared ferociously at the young man before it. In its eyes, this person was sinister with a wicked aura.

Qin Ming frowned and said, "Can you do it or not? Is it that difficult?"

Is this something a human would say?

The Blood Phoenix grinded its beak furiously, much like a human clenching their teeth in anger.

If it hadn’t just recently undergone Nirvana and if its power hadn’t yet recovered, it wouldn’t be a match for this person. Otherwise, it would have surely made this villain regret wandering onto this earth.

Qin Ming urged, "Why are you dawdling, and you even dare to snarl at me?"

The Blood Phoenix wanted to say: I have no teeth!

It endured the wickedness and said, "You’re making an unreasonable demand. The Phoenix Clan finds it extremely difficult to continue their lineage."

Qin Ming interrupted it, "I’m not asking you to brood or hatch chicks, just to simply lay a Phoenix Egg. Like the ordinary old hen that lays an egg a day, sometimes even two. You are a Divine Bird Phoenix, you should be far better than that, it’s not difficult, right?"

Outside the barrier, two elderly men heard this and their lips twitched slightly.

An egg laid independently by a hen can’t hatch offspring, but it can be eaten.

The Blood Phoenix understood his meaning and instantly flared up in anger, its Nirvana Fire burning the night sky red.

This was outrageous!

This villain actually compared it to an old hen! It truly wished the beak would peck him to death, so hateful, so enraging, it made its chest swell with fury nearly bursting on the spot.

Qin Ming looked at it and said, "Who are you glaring at? Do you want to be hit?"

He took the initiative and made a move — the enormous hand condensed by Heavenly Light reached out in an instant, grabbing its neck and cutting off its fiery spray.

"Here, this... cluck cluck..." the Blood Phoenix seethed with rage. Clamped by the neck, its speech was unclear and sporadic.

In the end, its voice was quite like it was saying: "Cluck... da."

The crowd behind them stood frozen, utterly stunned.

What was going on?

Emperor Qin was too formidable, he had forced the Divine Bird into such a state? It even seemed to emit a chicken-like sound.

Humiliated and furious, the Blood Phoenix rolled its eyes and fainted.

It couldn’t take it anymore. It simply sealed off its mind and spirit, isolating itself from inside and out, unwilling to exchange another word with this vile person.

Such contact would only cause it torment, body and soul.

It completely gave up, lying flat on the ground, yielding, without the slightest intent to resist.

Gentle Nirvana Power circulated, forming a cocoon of light on the surface, indicating it might once again transform into an egg.

Qin Ming spoke sternly, "Don’t play dead. If you dare undergo Nirvana again, I’ll definitely scatter your yolk."

A group of people behind him were stunned hearing this.

Outside the barrier, the eyelids of two elderly men twitched.

One elder spoke, "This is probably truly a Demon Cultivator!"

The other nodded, "A Great Saint of the Demon Sect Ancestral Court!"

How could a Great Saint nurtured by a normal Dojo be so sinister? Even their Xuanhuang Martial Hall doesn’t have such a strong demonic foundation.

Qin Ming threatened the Blood Phoenix about scattering its yolk, primarily because he didn’t want to take the blame.

His arrival there had caused an auspicious bird to undergo Nirvana once more; if word got out, those clueless about the situation would definitely see him as extremely wicked.

Thus, he resorted to intimidation on the spot.

Qin Ming lightly nudged it with his foot and said, "Forget it, I’ll let this go, get up. I won’t make things difficult for you, lest it tarnishes my brilliant Zhi Shan reputation."

At the moment the Blood Phoenix awoke, hearing these words, it almost closed its eyes again, feeling only the words ’extremely wicked’ could truly describe this person.

Qin Ming didn’t wish to push too hard, saying, "Remember, you owe me an egg, pay me back later. Now quickly, see how your clansman is faring!"

Primarily, he resonated with the fact that, indeed, it was difficult for the Divine Bird to lay an egg, and he couldn’t force it.

Through the Blood Array deep underground, the Blood Phoenix sensed the distant situation and said, "The Red Phoenix has already submitted, acknowledging that witch as its master."

Qin Ming praised, "It has a keen insight. In this regard, it’s far more promising than you."

What insight? It’s due to immense pressure. The Blood Phoenix muttered inwardly that if it didn’t submit, the young Red Phoenix would almost be beaten to death.

Moreover, it understood from the twisting process.

The young Divine Bird initially refused to yield, declaring it would rather undergo Nirvana and transform into an egg than accept a master.

As a result, the witch Jiang Ran clapped her hands with glee, set the iron pot, sparked the Six Desires Holy Fire, ready to cook the Phoenix Egg to augment herself.

The Blood Phoenix asked, "Do you know her from before? Do you come from the same place?"

Qin Ming cast it a glance and said, "Is this something you should be asking? You’re really nosy."

The Blood Phoenix had a feeling these two must hail from the same place. As the saying goes, local water and soil cultivate local people; one was an Evil Cultivator, the other a witch, neither seemed like a good person.

In the distance, Jiang Ran patted the young Phoenix’s head and said, "I tried reasoning with you, discussed with you for over a day, but principles didn’t work, forcing me to use some mild force."

The Red Phoenix’s eyes turned red, on the verge of tears.

Was it mild force? Such an assault made it feel as if it was plunging into Purgatory.

Feeling overly wronged, it ultimately chirped a couple of times, obediently complying, transforming into a palm-sized creature, resting on Jiang Ran’s shoulder.

"Witch Lady, let’s not dwell on the past, it’s all bittersweet tears. Let’s look forward."
