A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

Feng Jiutian's answer angered the Crimson Thunder Dragon, which roared to the sky again.

"Roar……"

The Crimson Thunder Dragon's roar suddenly caught in its throat, its copper bell-like eyes narrowed, and in an instant all the wind blades dissipated, the bone-chilling killing intent vanished, and it was as if there had never been a battle.

"..."

"What's going on?" Even the experienced Xuanji Zi was a little confused. How could the Crimson Thunder Dragon suddenly stop?

"Squeak..."

"Hoohoho..."

Crimson Thunder Dragon and Little Golden Egg suddenly began to communicate in a way that Feng Jiutian and Xuanjizi could not understand.

Feng Jiutian turned to Jiuyao and asked, "Did you understand what they were saying?"

"understood."

Jiuyao seemed to be on the verge of collapse; she actually wished she hadn't heard the two beasts talking at all!

"The Crimson Thunder Dragon said it would trade its horn for a chance to live, but the black bird disagreed."

The black bird naturally refers to the little golden egg. Feng Jiutian hadn't had time to name it yet, and its birth was so rushed. After Jiuyao mentioned it, Feng Jiutian pondered seriously for a while.

"It's so dark, let's call it Black Egg from now on." Feng Jiutian made the final decision, and Xuanji Zi didn't even have time to say anything.

He sighed, looked at the former golden egg, now a black egg, with pity, and shook his head.

"puff--"

Nine Radiance burst out laughing: "Hahahaha, Black Egg..."

Feng Jiutian: "Is it funny?"

Jiuyao coughed and said seriously, "It's not funny at all." But he couldn't hide the twitching at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes glanced at Heidan in a very strange way.

Over there, Black Egg and Crimson Thunder Dragon were still negotiating. One was a colossal creature, and the other was small and exquisite; they were surprisingly harmonious.

"Nine Glory, do you know what kind of bird Black Egg is?"

Feng Jiutian had always had doubts about this issue. The one who could freely enter and exit the Void Spirit Cauldron was definitely not Jiu Yao, so the one who could bring Jiu Yao out silently must be Hei Dan!

"do not know."

Jiuyao said without hesitation, "I can only sense that the Black Egg is stronger than me, and I cannot refuse the orders it gives."

This is why Jiuyao felt so frustrated. As a ninth-tier magical beast, she was being ordered around by a newly hatched black bird and couldn't even resist.

It's so incredibly annoying...

Upon hearing this, Feng Jiutian nodded as if she understood, then looked at the black egg. The red lotus night fire on the fine snow had been withdrawn, and she used the fine snow as a support point to prop herself up on the ground.

“We cannot rule out the possibility that the black egg is an ancient magical beast.” Xuanji Zi guessed: “A single glance was enough to make the Crimson Thunder Dragon, which was imbued with the aura of an ancient thunder dragon, surrender. If it was negotiating terms, then it could only be someone with the same ancient bloodline.”

The true form of Jiu Yao is still unclear. The shadow that Feng Jiu Tian saw last time was also unidentifiable. However, since the black egg can even command Jiu Yao, it must be an even more powerful creature!

Just as the group was speculating about the species of the black egg, the Crimson Thunder Dragon let out a slightly mournful roar—

"Hoohoho-"

Immediately afterward, the horn on the top of the Crimson Thunder Dragon suddenly throbbed violently. The surrounding elements did not make any other movements, and it did not seem like it was about to make a move. Just in case, Feng Jiutian kept a close eye on it. If the Crimson Thunder Dragon made any rash moves, he would kill it directly!

The horn on the Crimson Thunder Dragon's head fell off and landed in front of the Black Egg, and then a blinding white light rose from the top of its head!

The Crimson Thunder Dragon looked like it was in great pain, constantly twisting its body, roaring and howling. A round white bead, along with the horn, fell in front of the Black Egg from the white light.

With everything done, the Crimson Thunder Dragon breathed weakly, barked twice at the Black Egg, stood up, and glanced at Feng Jiutian.

"Humans are despicable!"

Before leaving, Chi Leilong couldn't resist making a sarcastic remark about Feng Jiutian.

Feng Jiutian also sensed that since the Crimson Thunder Dragon separated its horns and the white bead, its entire magical beast aura had weakened, and its strength was no longer as formidable, so much so that she felt it posed little challenge.

Moreover, since the Crimson Thunder Dragon was extorted for two things by the Black Egg, she can leave if she wants; she's not the kind of person who would kill everyone.

Upon seeing the fallen white bead, Xuanji Zi almost cried out in a broken voice, "Dragon Pill?"

"What is a Dragon Pill?" Feng Jiutian asked casually.

"This is a bit complicated to explain. In my opinion, it can be an auxiliary item used to refine high-level pills. In the eyes of mages, dragon pills can also be a magic weapon to consolidate elemental stability."

As she spoke, Xuanjizi stared at the dragon pill, her face full of desire.

After all, Dragon Pills are extremely rare and highly sought after by alchemists. If the success rate of refining a high-level ninth-grade pill is only 30%, adding just a little bit of Dragon Pill powder can boost the success rate to 80%!

An extremely terrifying leap has made Dragon Pills priceless; to date, Dragon Pills have appeared only a handful of times!

"Squeaky-"

With its horns and dragon core on its head, the black egg struggled to flap its wings and fly to Feng Jiutian's side. The huge dragon core and horns were almost ten times the size of the black egg, yet it managed to carry them to Feng Jiutian's side!

Seemingly trying to please Feng Jiutian, Heidan lowered its head, and the horn of the Crimson Thunder Beast fell into Feng Jiutian's hand. Heidan then rubbed against Feng Jiutian affectionately and squeaked twice.

Unfortunately, Feng Jiutian couldn't understand what the black egg was saying. He scratched its feathers and laughed, "This little guy is quite capable."

"Squeak!"

Black Egg cried out twice in a hurry, then flew up and rubbed against Feng Jiutian's face, probably because of the blood that dripped when they found the golden egg.

Feng Jiutian always had a vague connection with the black egg, but unlike the golden snake, they couldn't communicate as easily and know each other's location at any time.

That's a bit strange.

Feng Jiutian secretly pondered that she should find a quiet place to properly study the third manual after leaving the Phoenix Tower.

“Ah—ooh!”

In the instant Feng Jiutian was distracted, Hei Dan suddenly swallowed the dragon pill!

"Aaaaah, what a waste!" Xuanji Zi looked at the black egg and let out a heart-wrenching scream.

Who would have thought that such a small bird could eat such a large dragon pill?

Jiuyao was still in a daze. The black egg simply opened its pointed mouth, and then the dragon pill turned into a ball of light and disappeared into the black egg's mouth. Even under the watchful eyes of the two people, it could completely vanish into thin air.

Jiuyao immediately looked at the black egg with an expression of 'Who am I? Where am I?' incredulously.

Her mind was now filled with thoughts of Black Egg swallowing the Dragon Pill and being able to suppress the Crimson Thunder Beast, a bloodline on the edge of ancient times. With Black Egg, would there still be a place for her, Jiu Yao, by Feng Jiutian's side?

Although a thousand thoughts were already racing through his mind, Jiuyao still maintained an arrogant demeanor, snorted, and turned his head away heavily.
