Chapter 458 - Preparing to transform

Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

They were clearly just talking about goshawks, so why he did want to transform out of the blue?

Little Roc saw that everyone was looking at him and realised that he had spoken too loudly and interrupted them.

“Cough cough, you guys can continue.” Sima You Yue understood Little Roc’s intentions and said with a smile.

Wind Roc saw that Crimson Flame was not speaking and said, “The Goshawks have experienced a better growth than the others, so they’ve been becoming increasingly powerful. There have already been many clans that have had to submit to them. It is also because of this that their ambition has grown.”

“How about the phoenixes? Have they not bothered despite the turmoil amongst the bird clans?” Crimson Flame asked.

“The phoenixes have always been living in the central region. They don’t care about what happens outside.” Wind Roc said. “We also heard the news that the goshawks have obtained the favour of one of the branches of the phoenixes.”

Phoenixes had the bloodline of the vermillion bird, so they appeared quite similar to them. To the entire bird clans, the phoenixes were the highest of the ranks. Of course, if a Great Roc appeared, they would have to submit themselves to the Great Roc.

However, there was only ever one Great Roc while the phoenixes were a clan. There was no way to compare their power.

When she heard them speak of phoenixes, Sima You yue thought of Rainbow. At that time, Halcyon had taken her back upstairs. After so many years had passed, who knew how she was like now.

Crimson Flame finished listening to what Wind Roc had to say before saying to Sima You Yue, “It isn’t convenient for me to appear in front of everyone know. Help me settle this.”

“Me?” Sima You Yue pointed at her own nose, saying, “Although you are my contracted beast, my strength is only so little. How could I possibly help you settle this?”

“You still have him.” Crimson Flame looked at Little Roc.

Sima You Yue immediately understood what Crimson Flame meant. When Crimson Flame wasn’t around, Little Roc was the Ten Thousand Beast King. Crimson Flame wanted her and Little Roc to settle it.

“But Little Roc’s bloodline has yet to fully awaken.” She said, “The other bird clans won’t recognise this version of him, right.”

“Doesn’t he want to transform? When the lightning comes, just help him awaken his bloodline.” Crimson Flame said.

Sima You Yue looked at Little Roc, saying, “I can’t do it right now. I have to make some preparations.”

Crimson Flame nodded, saying, “Then we’ll talk about it again once you’ve finished preparing.”

“I don’t know what Contracted Master needs to prepare, do you need our help?” Wind Roc asked.

“No need.” Sima You Yue said, “Eh, you can just get your clansmen to stop being so dazzling.”

“…”

Wind Roc got all those who could transform themselves, to transform. All those who could not transform, hid themselves. The mountain range that was initially dotted with four winged rocs, was now vast and empty.

Crimson Flame came back to the Spirit Pagoda and Little Roc was dragged off to the side by Wind Roc, who had to speak to him. Sima You Yue got off the mountain peak and came to the cave to reunite with Sima Lie and the others.

“Grandfather, are you guys alright?” Sima You Yue saw that their clothes had been shredded by the four winged rocs, and was afraid that they had gotten injured.

“No problem, these are all superficial wounds.” Sima LIe said, “We’ve used the medication and the wounds have all scabbed over.”

“That’s good.” Sima You Yue said.

“You Yue, is Crimson Flame really the ancient divine memorial bird? Sima You Le asked.

Sima You Yue nodded.

“Oh my Heavens, this is too shocking!” Fatty Qu said, “You’ve caused my heart to pound non stop in shock! Your two contracted beasts are too awesome!”

Sima You Yue never thought that this would happen when she returned after leaving for awhile. When she thought of what she promised Crimson Flame, she suddenly felt that she was too bold just now!

However, why did he say that it was currently not convenient for him to appear in front of everyone?

“You Yue, you’re not too injured are you?” Bei Gong Tang did not forget that she had received injuries from being pressured by Wind Roc.

“Nothing big. I’m already a lot better.” Sima You Yue said. When she saw Chou Xiao Tian, she was a little apologetic, “It seems we have to push your issues back for a while…”

“No worries. In any case, we’re not in a rush.” Chou Xiao Tian said.

She looked at the four winged rocs that covered the mountain, and was still in a state of shock. She was also excited. If she had the protection of the four winged rocs, then she wouldn’t have to worry when they were on their way to Innumerable Green Palace!

“What do you plan to do?” Sima You Lin asked.

“Little Roc wishes to transform, and Crimson Flame says that I have to help him awaken his bloodline while he’s transforming. So I have to refine a few pills to prepare for the worst case scenario. While I’m at it, I might as well help make some for Thousand Resonance and the others to let them transform too.” Sima You Yue said.

“We better talk after your wounds have healed. Just let me know what you need to refine, I’ll help you.” Bei Gong Tang said.

“Okay.” Sima You Yue said, “Anyway, you are also able to refine those pills. I’ll pass you the ingredients later.”

“Got it.” Bei Gong Tang nodded.

Sima You Yue looked at Fatty Qu again, saying, “Fatty, I need a spirit tool that can avoid lightning. I want to use it during the transformation. Do you know what to make?”

“I do. You’ve already spoken to me about those things a bunch of times. I’ll definitely be able to refine it for you.” Fatty Qu said.

“Your rank isn’t high enough yet. You should cultivate a bit more, or it won’t be enough.” Sima You Yue said.

After that, she looked at Sima You Lin. Before she said anything, he said, “I’ll set up an array to help you battle the lightning.”

Sima You Yue smiled, “Thanks for the trouble.”

“Alright, let’s begin.” Fatty Qu chose a quiet place and headed there after speaking. He took out his tools and began forging.

Sima You Lin called out his own flying beast and flew into the air to observe the geography to prepare to set up a big array.

Sima You Yue and Bei Gong Tang discussed the pills that they needed to refine. Just the raw pills weren’t enough.

As for Sima Lie and the others, they seemed to have already gotten used to it. All of them always cultivated as long as they weren’t eating.

Chou Xiao Tian, Lian Hong and Wei Zi Qi were together watching him cook. However, they would occasionally glance at Sima You Yue and the others.

They never expected that, apart from Sima You yue being an alchemist and an array master, there would be another armament master and array master.

So many sacred beasts and so many different vocations, Just how many people in the lower continents were this powerful?!

Right now, if someone were to say there were a beast master tamer, they would not be surprised at all.

On the last two days, Sima You Yue and the others had continued making their preparations. As for Little Roc, he was with Ninth Roc and the others. He found out more about the bird clan’s situation here, and also understood the importance his identity had.

As for Ninth Roc and the others, they learnt more about Sima You Yue from Little Roc. After hearing about her, they were incredibly shocked. There was actually a human like her with such talent and power. It was truly not a loss for her to be Little Roc’s master.

However, four winged rocs had always been an existence that was higher up. Right now, knowing that their king had been contracted by a human, they were rather aggrieved no matter how strong she was.

Two days later, Sima You Yue waved at Little Roc and the others. They flew into the cave and landed beside her.

“Everything has been prepared. You can start transforming anytime.” Sima You Yue said.
