Chapter 1826
He Pingsheng was somewhat unwilling: "Not a single Divine Phoenix that meets the requirements?"
"None!" Tang Wan shook her head: "There are those with a blue left foot and three flowing light feathers, but they are male!"
"There are also females with three flowing light feathers, but the left foot is not blue; it's red like the right foot!"
"Anyway, there isn't one that is exactly the same!"
"The one that best meets the requirements is this one with four flowing light feathers!"
He Pingsheng thought for two breaths of time: "Fine, what is the price for this one?"
Different flowing light feathers represent different bloodline ranks; one with four flowing light feathers is definitely more valuable than one with three.
This is certain.
Sure enough, the woman said: "Eight hundred solid divine gold, then!"
He Pingsheng took out eight hundred solid divine gold and gave it to the woman, then left with this Divine Phoenix.
This Divine Phoenix was still quite young, standing only about a zhang tall; if it grew up in the future, it would naturally be larger, but no matter how it grew, the bloodline rank on its body would not change.
In this life, it would only ever have four flowing light feathers.
Unless it devoured heavenly treasures containing true Phoenix blood, it could not improve its own bloodline.
"Pluck..." Old Cao reached out without hesitation, directly and decisively reaching out to pluck one of the Divine Phoenix's golden feathers.
"Ah... ahhh..."
The Divine Phoenix screamed in pain, then spoke in human language: "You damned old man, you actually plucked my divine feather, you deserve to die!"
"It hurts so much!"
"It hurts me to death!"
This Flowing Light Divine Phoenix should still be in its infancy, as its voice was full of childishness when it spoke.
He Pingsheng's mouth twitched; he felt the pain for the Divine Phoenix.
"It's useless even if you pluck it!" the Divine Phoenix said proudly: "I am a four-feather Divine Phoenix, it will still grow back later!"
Old Cao said: "You are just a peacock, stop gilding your own face!"
"Hmph..." the little Divine Phoenix snorted coldly and ignored him.
Old Cao piloted the flying ship, flying back in the direction of Heavenly Phoenix City.
Spending the same amount of time as the journey there, six days later they arrived at Heavenly Phoenix City; they did not go into the city, but continued to fly north!
Piloting the flying ship in this way for another twenty-three days, they finally arrived at this even more hidden 【Duanmu Family】.
"The Duanmu family is a three-star family!"
"The old family head is in seclusion, and it is said that he has been in seclusion for many yuan of time!"
"The current family head is his daughter, Duanmu Yunzheng!"
"Go... this is the place!"
This time it was Li Canghai leading the way, and the three of them and the Divine Phoenix walked to the mountain gate.
When the gatekeeper saw the cultivation of the three, he naturally dared not be negligent; after notifying the family head, he quickly led He Pingsheng and the others to a mountain peak on the east side.
On the mountain peak, divine power was abundant.
"What a good place!" He Pingsheng looked around with emotion and said: "It is very quiet here, and although hidden, there is a divine vein exposed!"
If there were no divine vein, the entire mountain would not have such abundant divine power.
He Pingsheng was so envious.
If his own family also had a divine vein, then at the very least, the mountain-protecting grand array would not need to use divine gold as support, and it would be even more secure.
"Please..."
The three followed into the grand hall.
In the hall, a woman sat upright in the primary seat, having already waited for a long time.
"Family Head Duanmu... hehehe... we meet again!" Li Canghai greeted and said: "Let me introduce you!"
"This is our He family's Young Master, He Pingsheng!"
"This is Elder Cao!"
"Sit!" the woman pouted and said: "You are all seniors, but I am tired of bowing, so I won't bow to you!"
Speaking of this, the woman's gaze suddenly saw the Divine Phoenix, and her eyes lit up instantly.
He Pingsheng sat down slowly.
He sized the woman up a few times; Divine Imperial Realm!
And she was quite beautiful, with a chubby face that still had a childish look, carrying a three-part youthful air amidst her beauty.
"Hello, Family Head Duanmu!" Li Canghai spoke: "We have already followed your requirements and found this third-tier Divine Phoenix, born with three divine fire flowing light feathers, the left foot is blue, and the right foot is red!"
"Take a look and see if it is so?"
Duanmu Yunzheng nodded and said: "Very good... very beautiful... hahaha..."
"Too good, I imagine that once it is raised up, it will be a rare immortal pet!"
"By the way, which family did you purchase this Divine Phoenix from?"
"Was it the Tang family, or the Ye family?"
"As far as I know, in the entire Heavenly Phoenix City, only these two families sell Divine Phoenixes!"
"It was the Tang family!" This time it was Old Cao who spoke; he chuckled and said: "We couldn't afford the kind of Divine Phoenix the Ye family sells, hahaha..."
"This is the Tang family's Flowing Light Divine Phoenix!"
"Bang..." Hearing Old Cao say this, Duanmu Yunzheng was instantly furious, slapping the table hard and saying: "Good, good... this Tang family actually dares to lie to me?"
"Last time I went, they clearly said they didn't have any... this time they actually have them again?"
"Isn't this lying to me?"
"Damn it... damn it..."
While cursing, she refocused her gaze on the Divine Phoenix.
Her brows furrowed slightly.
Duanmu Yunzheng did not see any flaws.
But at the critical moment, the Divine Phoenix spoke itself: "Big sister... the one lying to you isn't the Tang family, it's these big liars in front of you..."
"To tell you the truth, I am not a three-feather Flowing Light Divine Phoenix!"
"I am a four-feather Divine Phoenix!"
"It was this hateful guy, he plucked one of the flowing light feathers from my tail!"
"It's too infuriating!"
Good heavens... good heavens...
They calculated everything, but missed this one point.
Actually, it wasn't that they missed it, but they underestimated the little peacock's desire for revenge.
Back on the divine ship, Old Cao had threatened her, warning her that this transaction was very important, and if she dared to tell the truth, the transaction would fail, and after it failed, they would take her back and stew her to eat.
At the time, the little peacock was so scared she cried, her face streaked with tears.
Who would have thought she would turn against them now.
Was she not afraid of being stewed?
He Pingsheng's toes were so embarrassed they could dig out two acres of land.
"Heh... hehe... hehehe..." Duanmu Yunzheng looked at the three and kept sneering.
"Cough cough..." Old Cao coughed twice and said: "Miss Duanmu... look, this four-tier one is definitely better than a third-tier one, isn't it?"
"And if you really think three flowing light feathers look good, it's very simple, right? Once it grows out, you can just pluck it off, can't you?"
"To tell you the truth, these four flowing light feathers are much more expensive than three!"
"Hehehe... you actually dare to lie to me?" Duanmu Yunzheng said: "Now! Immediately! Right now! Take your things and leave. Seeing that you are seniors, I won't hold it against you!"
"No!" At this moment, the little Phoenix cried out: "Save me... save me... big sister save me..."
"This group of people are bad guys, they will stew me when they go back!"
"Save me... please!"
The little Phoenix's milky voice immediately made Duanmu Yunzheng's expression change again.
"You wait a moment... how much divine gold was this little Phoenix bought for? I'll give you double!"
