Chapter 433: Just Checking You Out

Sima You Yue realised the difference, but did not take it very seriously. For at the Primordial Lands, every person treated the array masters with a different level of respect with a mix of fear. What’s more, they had seen her prowess the last night. They would probably not be able to forget such a sight for the rest of their lives.

“Grand Master.” The Zhuo Family members greeted her, somewhat stiffly. Now, each time they saw Sima You Yue, they felt a little afraid, but even more awkward. In the past they used to disregard her and look down upon her. They had never imagined that it would turn out that she would be their saviour in a dire situation.

Sima You Yue furrowed her brows and said, “Please don’t call me Grand Master, just call me You Yue.” She really could not get used to the title of Grand Master.

The Zhuo Family members did not object, although they started to look even more awkward and embarrassed, which meant that they were people of good character. If they had continued to flatter her, she might have just turned around and left. What’s more, Zhuo Ma had treated her very hospitably in the past few days, so there was no longer any need to hold on to what happened in the past.

“You Yue, are you done rinsing?” Zhuo Ma smiled, asking.

Sima You Yue nodded, asking. “Is the Jiang family residence very far from here?”

“It’s some distance away… If we sit on a flying beast, we will need about a day to get there.” Zhuo Ran replied.

“Why didn’t you ride on a flying beast?” Sima You Yue asked.

The Zhuo family members replied awkwardly, “We.. don’t have a flying beast.”

Sima You Yue remembered once again that she was back in the Primordial Lands, and not everyone here had a contract spirit beast. Because the spirit beasts regarded one’s bloodline very highly, they would not allow themselves to form contracts with just anyone. Now that she thought about it, for someone in the Primordial Lands, being below the Divine Rank meant that one was unable to take flight, or form contracts with spirit beasts. They also could not freely use teleportation arrays. This was indeed far more inconvenient than at the lower realms.

“How about from your residence?” She asked.

“Judging by our current progress, maybe in half a month?” Zhuo Ran replied.

Although Sima You Yue was not pressed for time, she wasn’t very keen to spend her time on the road just like this. But at the same time, she was unable to reach Little Roc, and could not call him out.

“If only we could take some form of transportation.” Sima You Yue said. “This can’t go on. Let’s look for a flying beast.”

“Grand… You Yue, you can’t utter these words carelessly. If the spirit beasts hear it, you could invite trouble.” Zhuo Ran said.

“As long as they are willing, it will not be a problem.” Sima You Yue said. “Are there flying beasts here?”

“There are.” Zhuo Ma said. “I remember that as I crossed over that mountain, I saw a Phoenix, and it was a sacred beast.”

“Let’s take a look then.” Sima You Yue said, her eyes shining.

“Alright. I’ll take you there.” Zhuo Ma was excited. If they were really able to find a flying spirit beast to take them on the journey, they would be much safer, and definitely much faster. Zhuo Ran thought to stop them, but seeing Sima You Yue’s confidence, and recalled that she had the same expression plastered on her face yesterday, he let that thought pass away like a waft of smoke. Being able to find a flying beast would be great. As such, they packed up their belongings and rushed towards the place that the phoenix was sighted.

By the afternoon, they had reached the place where they had seen the phoenix. As they looked into the distance, they saw huge nest resting upon the middle of the cliff.

“That’s it!” Zhuo Ma said, pointing at the nest. “The last time we passed by, we saw the phoenix right here.” Sima You Yue looked over, and saw that the phoenix was not at the nest at that time. It must have gone hunting for food.

“Zhuo Ma, would you like a flying beast?” Sima You Yue asked, seeing at the longing gaze on Zhuo Ma’s face.

“Of course I would. But don’t you need to domesticate it before you can even form a contract with it? We don’t have many beast trainers here. There aren’t even two beast tamers in the whole Heavenly Tiger Ridge.” Zhuo Ma said, disappointed and frustrated.

Sima You Yue rubbed her nose. It seems like being a beast tamer was a special occupation in the Primordial Lands. Although the humans are of a greater position here, because there were only a few of them, and also because spirit beasts absolutely detested beast tamers, becoming a beast tamer was a very dangerous thing.

“If it is domesticated, would you want it?” She turned to look at Zhuo Ma.

Zhuo Ma was flabbergasted. “Of course!”

“Then let’s wait here.” Sima You Yue said. She then looked over at Zhuo Ma and asked, “What rank is that phoenix? Will you be able to control it?”

“Probably not.” Zhuo Ran said. “That is a first or second rank sacred beast.” A first rank sacred beast, compared to and a second rank divine beast had about the same might. But because their bodies were stronger, they were able to last in battles much longer. Second rank sacred beasts were almost as powerful as a high ranking Divine King. If it was at the later end of its rank, then it would be as powerful as a starting Divine Overlord. Zhuo Ran was just a starting Divine King, and naturally was no match for this phoenix.

Sima You Yue thought for a while, and said, “I’ll go and take a look. You guys wait for me here.” With that, she swiftly made her way over to the cliff on the other side. With the speed at which she moved, her body must have recovered pretty well by that point. As she reached the base of the cliff, all the others could see was her throwing some things out, and then making one round around the cliff before she returned.

“Just like that?” Zhuo Ma looked at Sima You Yue with much uncertainty.

“Yeah.” Sima You Yue said confidently. “I will gift you with a phoenix today.”

“Alright.” Zhuo Ma gazed at Sima You Yue, smiling shyly.

They proceeded to wait at the mountain opposite that cliff for over an hour before the phoenix appeared. After it circled the cliff in the air for a bit, it proceeded to make its way back to its nest.

“This phoenix is not a pureblood.” Sima You Yue said, after she saw the phoenix for herself. She had personally encountered a purebred phoenix. And compared to this one that was before her eyes, this one looked much more grand than this one. Hm… It must taste better as well then. What’s more, this bird only had just a little phoenix blood mixed in its bloodstream, which is why it looked very similar to a phoenix. The fact that this bird of impure blood could become a sacred beast must mean that it was extremely powerful.

Once the bird would land in its nest, the array that was set below its net would be unleashed, and the bird would be trapped within the array. The sudden changes caused the phoenix to panic and caused its spirit to be disturbed. However, it calmed down soon enough. As it saw Sima You Yue and the rest approach itself from behind, it exclaimed, “Did you do this?!”

As it was flying back, it had picked up the scent of the presence of humans from the mountains opposite its nest. To think that they were actually planning to trap it!

Sima You Yue walked over, and was completely unafraid of its ferocious demeanour, saying, “It is I who did this.”

“I’ll rip you apart!” The bird flared its wings to charged towards them, only to find itself stuck because of the array.

“It’s no use. This array of mine can trap even a High Ranked Divine Overlord. What’s more a Second Grade Sacred Beast like you?” Sima You Yue boasted.

“What do you want to do to me?” The bird glared at Sima You Yue angrily.

“I don’t want to do anything to you.” Sima You Yue smiled, saying. “I just to let you know that we would like you to be our flying beast!”

The Zhuo Family members were absolutely shocked by her words. She had literally just said that she wanted to make it her flying beast, what does she mean by “not wanting to do anything”?
