C211 Sleeping in the Phoenix Ridge
In the sky, no one dared to say it was a king but within the boundaries of the Phoenix Ridge, it was definitely another existence's Hegemony Level. However, it was fortunate that it would usually appear alone. Even if the caravan encountered it, they only needed to avoid it in time and there wouldn't be too much of a problem.
"High Level Vicious Beast?" Lu Yang had now advanced to Yellow Grade Beast-controlling Master and had not tested his own Beast-controlling Technique. If he could catch a few Red Flame Bird here, it would also be good.
As the group moved forward, the distance between them and the Phoenix Ridge became closer and closer. The scenery in front of them also changed from a little red dot to a large area of red, and the trees around them were quickly replaced by the Phoenix Tree.
These trees continued to grow, and in the end they extended all the way to the top of the Phoenix Ridge, almost dyeing the entire Phoenix Ridge in a fiery red color.
"Cousin, it's getting late. Let's rest here!" The group in front of the Phoenix Ridge began to slow down, so as to not scare the flaming bird, while Murong Fuye's cheerful voice came from behind.
They had already walked for a day now and were already thousands of kilometers away from the Donglai City.
"There is still some time before the sky turns dark, so we should hurry on our way. I know what you're thinking. You can go back and it'll satisfy you. " Du Xian originally wanted to reject Murong Fuye, but seeing the other party's excited expression, he shook his head in response.
"What is it? Has he been persuaded by your little lover? " Seeing that Du Xian seemed to be deep in thought, Lu Yang rode on his War Pet and walked over to Du Xian's side and jokingly said.
"Sigh, she is a child who hasn't grown much, but this is good too, the sky has recently turned a little cold. This Phoenix tree is itself the Red Flame Bird's food, and adding the nourishment of the Red Flame Bird's feces, we will set up camp here at night. On one hand, we don't have any bonfires, and on the other, it's truly warm." Along the way, Du Xian had indeed been tormented until his head was dizzy and his eyes blurred. Furthermore, this was indeed a rare sight, so he didn't refuse Murong Fuye's request.
"Lu Yang, this Du Xian is just a mortal so we might not feel anything, but we have to be cautious!" Seeing the convoy continue to move forward, Du Xian went ahead and arranged for camp setting up for the night, the Six-eyed Golden Lion spoke with worry.
"Defend against what?" Hearing the Six-eyed Golden Lion's words, Lu Yang was slightly stunned, as if he also felt that something was amiss.
"To prevent, of course, killing each other? Of course, I was only guessing. " Not knowing why, a legend about the Phoenix Tree resounded in the Six-eyed Golden Lion.
It turned out that the phoenix tree could gather the light of the dark sun and form something called a Flame Fruit. These Flame Fruits were normally used as food for the Flaming Bird, but at night, these Flame Fruits would release a sort of hallucinatory aroma.
If a sane person were to smell this fragrance, they would only have a slight hallucination. However, if they met someone with ulterior motives, it would be hard to say.
"Are you saying that there is such a person in our caravan?" Lu Yang roughly understood what the Six-eyed Golden Lion was saying, and asked somewhat suspiciously.
Although he did not know what effects the Raging Flames Fruit had, he had brought all of his followers this time around who were meticulously selected, and were definitely the elites of the Heaven One Sect. If there was anything wrong with this group of people, Lu Yang would find it hard to believe.
"I can't say, but this matter definitely has nothing to do with Du Xian, and although the Raging Flames Fruit is powerful, it isn't powerful enough to make one a demon. Otherwise, this entire stretch of Phoenix Forest would have been burnt by someone else long ago, the reason why it still exists right now is proof that the Raging Flame Fruit would not cause such a huge impact." Being asked by Lu Yang, the Six-eyed Golden Lion immediately shook its head as if it was thinking about something.
"I say this because I always have this strange feeling. Don't underestimate my feeling. I have lived for hundreds of years and naturally generated an ability. It is one of my many life-saving measures. And I can also feel that other than that little girl Murong Fuye, there's another group of people who have been following behind the caravan outside the entire time. " Six-eyed Golden Lion looked around to make sure no one was listening in before speaking softly.
"What, there's such a thing? It looks like this matter really isn't as simple as we thought. Maybe Kun Family had already sent people to lurk inside the caravan, or maybe it was done by someone else. Before Lu Yang cooperated with Du Family, he had already secretly sent people to investigate the background of the Du Family, and found out that the history of the Du Family's origins was also a bloody and legendary story.
And the rise of Du Family in these years, was definitely not without blood.
It was reasonable to say that there were powers other than the Kun Family that wanted to take revenge on them.
Furthermore, the Six-eyed Golden Lion was currently on the same rope as him. Lu Yang believed that the Six-eyed Golden Lion would definitely not lie to him.
"Lu Yang, let's set up camp here. We'll set off early tomorrow morning!" Originally, they could have smoothly traversed the Phoenix Ridge. However, the addition of an additional Murong Fuye added a little trouble to the way, causing them to be delayed for a while.
At this moment, even though Du Xian felt a little guilty, he still had to do what he had to do right now.
"Since it's getting late, let's spend the night here." Hearing Du Xian's words, Lu Yang responded. After that, he arranged for his men to find a good place to set up camp. Around two hours later, all the items had been prepared in the Shi family.
One of the benefits of sleeping in the Phoenix Ridge was that one could use the Phoenix Tree to make a fire. Furthermore, using the Phoenix Tree to burn food that was cooked out, the taste was especially delicious.
As for the Du Family, their speed seemed to be even faster. The Heaven One Sect had only just started a fire, and the food at the Du Family's side had already started a fragrance. This speed made Lu Yang envious for quite a while.
He wasn't envious of how delicious the things that the Du Family cook were, but instead felt that the efficiency of these servants' work was clearly more than twice that of the Heaven One Sect.
Just as the people from Heaven One Sect were starting to prepare the food, one of Du Xian's trusted aides ran over to Lu Yang's side. Without him saying anything, Lu Yang knew that this was definitely Du Xian asking him to dinner. Not only that, there was definitely also the City Lord's daughter, Murong Fuye, by his side.
He definitely wouldn't refuse such an invitation. As for the Six-eyed Golden Lion, it did not accompany Lu Yang and had long gone out to fight wild food.
Although it was still not Lu Yang's War Pet and had not reached the substantive benefits offered by the Beast Controlling System, it was after all, the High Level Vicious Beast that had helped Lu Yang to become a Protector in the Yellow Grade Beast-controlling Master. It had obtained quite a few substantive benefits from Lu Yang's Spiritual Qi assaults a few times, and even if it had not advanced to Yellow Grade Beast-controlling Master, it was not too far off from it.
Lu Yang would naturally not care about a fierce beast with such a strong ability to survive in the wild. Furthermore, it was not actually going to eat wild food, but for other purposes.
Under the guidance of the servant of Du Family, Lu Yang saw the many orderly tents constructed by the servants of Du Family. Although these tents didn't look that special, judging by the quality of the material, they were definitely extraordinary. Not only could they shelter from wind and rain, they could also play a role in defense against sneak attacks.
This was a simple tent that was many times stronger than the one constructed by Heaven One Sect.
"As expected of a big family, just the money alone is enough to kill you!" When did our Heaven One Sect reach such a level!? " Lu Yang calculated, there were more than a hundred people here this time, each of them had this kind of tent, each of them had about 1000 gold coins, just these tents would cost ten thousand gold coins, not to mention the other items in the caravan, the Du Family money was still as flowing as water!
