Chapter 339: Chapter 316: Serial Drama of Fallen Immortals

“Lu Ya? That name seems familiar.” Being reincarnated as a bird has impeded Li Fan’s ability to think quickly. He had a vague impression that he had heard the name somewhere before.

Despite pondering for a long time, he could not recall why it was so familiar.

A bit peeved, he began to scratch the little boy’s hair with his claws again. Seeing that the boy had no reaction, Li Fan pecked him hard with his long beak.

“Ouch! That hurts!” The little boy finally turned his attention away from the departing figure of Lu Ya.

Thinking the bird was hungry, the boy quickly reassured it: “All right, all right, I know you’re hungry. I’ll find you some food now.”

“Let’s go, Little Red,” the boy slapped the wings of the red-crowned crane he was sitting on.

The crane obediently flapped its wings and once again quickly took to the air, regularly soaring above the clouds.

Amid the howling wind, Li Fan faintly heard the boy muttering regretfully. “Brother Lu Ya is good-looking and kind-hearted. Now he is also so strong. He’s truly perfect. If everyone in Ningyuan City knew, they would definitely be happy. It’s a pity that I don’t know why Brother Lu suddenly had such a strong hostility towards Mr. Bai. Not only does he not allow me to return, he even forbade me from sending any messages…”

The boy frowned, his face full of worry that didn’t match his age.

At that moment, Li Fan stiffened.

Ningyuan City. Mr. Bai.

These two words ignited the deep-seated memories in his Spirit Consciousness.

An image of a thin figure with slightly yellowed hair suddenly appeared before Li Fan’s eyes.

“Is it him?”

“The events of the Beast Taming Sect follow on from those in Ningyuan City?”

“That beggar boy from back then has now gained control over such powerful Exotic Beasts. Judging from the scene earlier, the power of the tiger-faced humanoid beast must be at least Nascent Soul level. How many years have passed?”

“Though the Techniques of the Beast Sect have been lost, it’s possible that the ability to control Spirit Beasts is even stronger than a cultivator’s personal abilities.”

“Mr. Bai…it’s that mysterious fellow again.”

“Why is it that every time I enter the Fallen Immortal Realm, everything seems to be related to him?”

“Once or twice might be coincidence, but it’s happened too many times for me to ignore.”

Many thoughts welled up in his mind and under the surge of emotions, Li Fan felt the slight amount of energy he had accumulated being rapidly drained.

Unable to control his eyelids from drooping, he caught a glimpse of the blurry figure just before he descended into sleep.

Li Fan was roused from his sleep by a sweet fruit that had been delivered to his beak.

The fruit filled his stomach and a warm current spread throughout his body, quickly ridding him of his tiredness.

Upon opening his eyes, he saw the little boy squatting on the ground, hiding behind a spiritual plant taller than himself.

From time to time, the boy would pick a couple of round plump red fruits from the plant and pass them to Li Fan.

Li Fan didn’t stand on ceremony and swallowed them whole.

Feeling slightly stronger, he continued to scratch the boy with his claws, indicating that he wanted more.

The boy kept weaving through the Spiritual Field, selecting only the most vibrant fruits and giving them all to Li Fan to enjoy.

Having a good meal, Li Fan started to view the boy in a more favorable light.

“Alright, that’s enough. If we keep stealing, too many will be missing and we’ll be discovered.”

“Hehe, let’s move to another place.”

The boy propped up Li Fan, who was slightly leaning over his head, and set him straight again.

He didn’t summon the crane. Without wasting a moment, he moved to the next field on foot.

After plundering several fields in this manner, they bumped into a group unexpectedly.

“Xu Ke, what are you doing here?!” A voice suddenly sounded from behind the boy, startling him.

Upon turning around and seeing who it was, the boy breathed a sigh of relief.

After taking a look at the person, the boy named Xu Ke made a “hush” gesture and spoke in a hushed voice. “Of course, I’m doing the same as you, secretly picking up some nice food for my companion Spirit Beast.”

The interrupted meal had left Li Fan rather displeased and he glared dismissively at this person called Song Yang.

Skinny and sinister, he didn’t look friendly at all.

Wrapped around his neck was a black two-headed snake.

One head had its eyes tightly shut, while the other one was staring hard at Li Fan, constantly flicking its tongue in and out.

Xu Ke subconsciously gathered his hair and tried to hide Li Fan in it.

But Song Yang, wearing a disdainful expression, scoffed at Xu Ke. “Similar to me? You think you’re on the same level?”

“My companion Spirit Beast is a descendant of the Black Water Snake God, Zhumo Jinyin. It possesses unlimited potential. It’s a foregone conclusion that it will achieve God Transformation in the future. It’s only natural for me to fetch extra food if it’s not full.”

“As for your strange bird, what is it? It’s obvious that it doesn’t have a powerful bloodline.”

“As the saying goes – dragon begets dragon and phoenix begets phoenix. A mouse’s son can only make holes. Xu Ke, you don’t actually believe that you can rise through the ranks with just a ragged bird, do you?”

Being just a kid, Xu Ke couldn’t help but argue when his companion Spirit Beast was maligned. “My bird isn’t that bad. Everyone says it’s a descendant of a divine bird, so in the future…”

Before he could finish, he was rudely interrupted by Song Yang.

“A divine bird? Which divine bird? The phoenix or the vermilion bird? Looking at your strange bird, it doesn’t resemble either of them.”

“Those are just comforting words. Don’t tell me you take them seriously? How naive!”

Song Yang laughed mockingly. Even the two-headed snake hanging on him joined in the scornful act.

“You’re talking nonsense!” Xu Ke blustered, his face turning beet-red.

But Song Yang only laughed harder, seeming to intentionally provoke Xu Ke even more.

Sitting on Xu Ke’s head, Li Fan, who had already been a bit impatient, was even more infuriated upon hearing his belittlement by Song Yang. His mood flared uncontrollably.

Just as he was about to make a retort, Xu Ke suppressed him.

“Young one, don’t be impulsive. You can’t beat that snake yet. Besides, the Sect Rules prohibit us disciples from fighting among ourselves. If anyone violates it, they will be severely punished. The one who starts the fight will be punished even more severely.”

“Let’s just ignore him.”

Xu Ke’s voice resonated in Li Fan’s mind.

Having experienced numerous reincarnations, Li Fan could certainly discern that this guy called Song Yang was intentionally picking a fight.

Being possessed by a temperamental bird, however, gave him an exasperatingly short fuse.

Thanks to Xu Ke exerting all his strength to restrain him, Li Fan managed to stay put. Otherwise, he would have already rushed forward. 𝘧𝑟𝓮𝓮𝓌𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝓵.𝒸ℴ𝑚

Ignoring Song Yang’s sarcasm, Xu Ke took off without a second thought.

Watching Xu Ke’s retreating figure, a momentary glint of malice flashed in Song Yang’s eyes.

In order to placate Li Fan, Xu Ke raided a half a dozen fields with him.

Only when various species of spiritual plants filled his stomach did Li Fan gradually calm down.

And so, in the following days, Li Fan continued to spend his time eating and growing stronger.
