After changing her master, she turned to the ruthless way, and the whole sect knelt down

The Flaming Mountain collapsed, and the hot magma engulfed most of the plain.

On the high ground far away, the Qingxiao Sect disciples who stayed in the camp and saw this scene were horrified and couldn't help but feel grateful to Xie Liuyin for his original decision.

If she hadn't insisted on setting up camp farther away, with the speed at which Flaming Mountain was being destroyed, they probably wouldn't have been able to escape at all.

Xie Liuyin and others who watched this feast of destruction up close were pushed far away by the heat waves from the erupting magma.

The clouded leopard on the small cloud boat had its fur singed and was licking its curly hair pitifully.

Seeing that everyone was out of danger, Xie Liuyin cleared his throat and made a request: "I saved you."

These few short words immediately attracted the attention of the monsters and spiritual plants on the cloud boat.

The clouded leopard stopped licking its fur and looked up at her.

The spiritual plants huddled together, each hugging its own branches, leaves, and roots, as if afraid that she would brutally take away their limbs.

Xie Liuyin said, "I'm not a bad person. You can each pay a little for the boat fare."

Her attitude was gentle and her demands didn't sound high.

The clouded leopard rolled its eyes, opened its mouth wide, and spit out a fang from its mouth pouch.

That was something that fell off when it was changing its teeth. It thought it was interesting at the time and kept it for the time being. Now it is just right for Xie Liuyin.

Xie Liuyin didn't despise it and carefully accepted it: "Not bad, you can leave now."

Upon hearing this and seeing that the cloud boat had arrived at a safe place, the clouded leopard turned around and jumped into the woods below the cloud boat and soon disappeared.

Seeing this, the other spiritual plants took out the broken fingers and leaves they had collected and presented them to Xie Liuyin one by one.

Xie Liuyin was very happy with it, waved his hand and let them go.

After being offered as sacrifices, the spiritual plants also found a suitable place and hid deep in the dense forest, and soon disappeared without a trace.

The others didn't expect that this could be done, so they immediately followed suit and joined Xie Liuyin in extorting the spiritual plants or monsters on their flying magic weapons.

Fortunately, the disciples of Qingxiao Sect were quite kind, and they just gave them something and let it go.

When everyone's magic weapons fell near the camp, a huge bird shadow slowly condensed and then slowly dissipated at the place where the Flaming Mountain collapsed in the distance.

Not long after, the pale-faced Si Feiyu flew into their camp.

Everyone had long heard from the group of evil cultivators that there was a spirit beast hidden in the lava spring, and later they realized that Si Feiyu resolutely jumped in just for the spirit beast.

However, since they hadn't seen the true appearance of the spirit beast, they couldn't help but feel curious.

Now that Si Feiyu had finally returned safely, everyone rushed over immediately, eager to see what the spiritual beast that could bring down a mountain looked like.

"It must be a fire-type tiger-shaped spirit beast. Only such a spirit beast has such great strength." Tun Yan guessed.

Xu Wuyin said helplessly, "Didn't you see the bird shadow in the flames? It has wings. It must be a bird-shaped spirit beast."

"Who said that?" Tun Yan refused to admit it. "What if it's a tiger with wings?"

Everyone was speculating endlessly and almost got into a fight over this.

When Si Feiyu opened his hands and showed the spirit beast hidden in his palms, everyone was stunned.

It’s not for any other reason, it’s just because the spirit beast is so small, the fur on its body has not grown fully, and many places are bald!

"No, you mean, this little thing destroyed the Flaming Mountain?" Tun Yan pointed at the ugly, dry bird in Si Feiyu's palm, his face full of disbelief.

But Biyun looked at the bird in surprise and said, "Could this be the legendary Vermillion Bird?"

Although the bird looked ugly, its red feathers were extremely eye-catching.

It has a slender body, and even though it is so small, one can already see the graceful posture it will have when it soars into the sky in the future.

The long and slender tail feathers are also very beautiful, like a bunch of torches, warm and fiery.

This little creature looks quite similar to the legendary mythical beast, Vermilion Bird.

As if happy that Biyun had called out its true form, the little Suzaku proudly turned around in front of everyone, not caring at all about its miserable appearance with a lot of hair missing.

"If nothing unexpected happens, that should be it." At this moment, Si Feiyu's face felt hot for a rare moment.

In order to make life easier for her family and herself, Si Feiyu prides herself on being extremely thick-skinned. She can say anything as long as she can take advantage of it.

But this time, she couldn't open her mouth.

This is clearly a Vermilion Bird, but why does she feel inexplicably guilty when asked to acknowledge the identity of this little bird?

The young Suzaku didn't notice the contractor's expression, and still proudly raised its head to show everyone its unique style.

You know what, this young bird actually has some of the bearing of a divine beast.

"It really is a young Vermillion Bird. No wonder those demon cultivators are so crazy about getting it." Biyun sighed softly.

Si Feiyu then asked what happened after she entered the magma spring. Did she just hear the word "demon cultivator"? How did it have anything to do with demon cultivators?

Xie Liuyin didn't want to hide it from her, so he simply told her the whole thing.

Si Feiyu's expression was indescribable after hearing the last part: "I never thought that Xie Mingzhu would dare to get involved with the demonic cultivators. What on earth was the Great Elder of the Beast King Sect thinking? Why would he accept such a person as his disciple?"

"That great elder was always one who prioritized profit above all else. I guess Xie Mingzhu gave him enough benefits," Xie Liuyin replied casually. "But things have changed since then. She colluded with demonic cultivators and harmed her fellow cultivators right in front of all of us."

"If we were dead, this matter might have been concealed, but now that we are alive, her future is unpredictable."

Xie Mingzhu made such a bad move this time. Xie Liuyin didn't believe that she could stay in the Beast King Sect well this time.

Si Feiyu clicked his tongue and said, "Did you leave any evidence? I've seen the Beast King Sect's ability to distort right and wrong before."

If the Beast King Sect had not been capable, the Qingxiao Sect would not have been nearly scolded by the entire cultivation world.

Biyun nodded at her and showed the photo stone in her hand. Only then did Si Feiyu feel relieved.

In the following days, everyone helped Si Feiyu take care of the newly hatched Suzaku chicks while collecting the surrounding treasures.

But the disciples of Qingxiao Sect always do things in an orderly manner. Although they entered the secret realm to search for treasures, they did not kill all the people. They still left some spiritual plant seedlings and precious spiritual objects.

I just hope these spiritual creatures can continue to grow in the secret realm of Nanshan and bring good news to future generations.

The commotion on the Flame Mountain side was so loud that it inevitably attracted the surrounding monks.

Those righteous monks are fine, Biyun just needs to come forward and negotiate a few words with them.

However, some evil cultivators were also attracted and wanted to attack the Qingxiao Sect team when they encountered them.

At the critical moment, the young Vermilion Bird rushed out of Si Feiyu's protection and flew out to protect everyone.

The flames it spat out from its mouth wiped out the entire group of evil cultivators.

From then on, the young Vermilion Bird had work to do in the secret realm.

Three months later, most of the evil cultivators hiding in the secret realm were found and eliminated by Qingxiao Sect and other sects, leaving only a few from the Corpse Puppet Sect who were missing.
