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.
