“Cluck cluck cluck!”
Suddenly there were the sounds of a chicken clucking and everyone was startled. Their heads turned towards the noise.
Even Feng Jiu froze for a moment too. When she looked down, she saw Green Feather who had been left behind earlier. She wasn’t sure when it had caught up with them and followed her. It was now stood upright by her side with its head raised upwards clucking away.
“Huh? It’s this the seventh order spiritual bird?”
“Yes, that’s right, it’s a seventh order spiritual bird. But doesn’t it usually avoid people when it sees them? Why did it come towards a crowd?”
“This seventh order spiritual bird looks really fat!”
“I recognise this green-feathered thing, it has been wandering around Third Sun Peak recently. I think it’s being looked after by an errand boy.” One of them said and glanced around. When his eyes landed on Feng Jiu, his chin raised and he said: “There, that’s him there. But, why is an errand boy here?”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes fell onto an azure clothed Feng Jiu. Met with the gazes of everyone, Feng Jiu smiled awkwardly. There was an honest and simple look on her face and she pretended she hadn’t heard that person’s words as she looked around at everyone.
“What are you looking at? I brought him along with me. Have you got any opinions?” Chen Dao glared back at the disciples surrounding them.
When they saw who had spoken, they didn’t pay any more notice to them. They knew of Chen Dao, that one of the elders in the sect was his backing. If they didn’t need to offend him then naturally they would avoid doing so. With Chen Dao’s status, it wasn’t impossible for him to bring along an errand boy anyway.

“Green Feather, quickly, go back now.”
Feng Jiu waved her hand at Green Feather and gestured for it to return to the cave dwelling. However, unexpectedly, Green Feather twisted its neck to look at Feng Jiu and squatted by her feet and clucked. It was hard to ignore its round chubby body squatting there like a ball so conspicuously.
“It’s fine if you want to bring it, if we are hungry we can even roast it for food.” Chen Dao said and stared at the green feathered thing squatting by Feng Jiu’s feet. He rubbed his belly as he spoke. He had got up in a hurry this morning and hadn’t had anything to eat!
The corners of Feng Jiu’s mouth twitched, she was speechless. Initially, she had wanted to roast or even stew Green Feather to eat. However, when she realised that it still had some eggs that haven’t been laid, she stopped thinking about killing it.
She didn’t expect it to keep hanging around her after she had decided not to eat it. She didn’t know when it became common knowledge that she was looking after this green-feathered chicken. In actual fact, she hadn’t really had much food to feed it. Once in a while she would feed it some pills, who knew that after eating the pills for a while, it would become so round and fat. However, those eggs were still not laid after all this time.
“The disciples of Third Sun Peak gather over here!”
Suddenly, she heard a low voice next to her. Chen Dao said: “Come here quickly, it’s Martial Uncle Duan gathering the disciples from Third Sun Peak.”
Feng Jiu nodded. And at this moment, the people from other peaks also shouted for the disciples from the various peaks to gather.
She saw her mother dressed in white standing indifferently at the front with a few middle-aged men beside her. They were most probably the other disciples of Master Third Sun.
When she thought about Master Third Sun’s orders to her mother last night, she was a little hesitant. What sort of superb elixir were they? If they were really that important, why didn’t Master Third Sun go to the Secret Realm and pick them himself?
“Teams of ten, hurry up and form your own teams!”
