Chapter 387: Little Feng Ting Tong, Old Cheng Returns

"*Kacha... *"

"*Kachacha... *"

The little fellow covered in fire-red down had its eyes closed, but it was using its large feet to push hard against its eggshell.

The cracks on the eggshell became more and more numerous.

Finally, with a *kacha* sound, it shattered all over the ground.

A red, furry creature, covered in red down, with a head and body almost the same size, looking like a gourd, suddenly stood in the void.

It was only two *chi* tall, chubby.

It hadn't grown feathers yet, and its whole body was covered in that kind of fluffy down.

Its round, black eyes rolled around, and then it locked onto He Pingsheng.

This is a phoenix?

He Pingsheng grinned in surprise: It looks very much like the chick of an ice goose that lives on the ice plains.

Too cute.

Round head, round belly, covered in soft down.

This little fellow even raised its wings to greet He Pingsheng.

Unfortunately, there were no feathers on these wings; they were short and thick, like two small wooden blocks, also covered in fire-red down.

The furry little fellow stood on the magma fire, its down puffed up, but it was not harmed by the flames at all.

After a few breaths, the little fellow lowered its head, *kachacha*—it swallowed the shell it had shed into its belly.

"You seem very hungry!" He Pingsheng smiled, then extended two fingers and poked the furry little fellow's belly twice.

Very soft!

Really comfortable.

"Hehehe..." He Pingsheng couldn't help but chuckle.

Unexpectedly, the little fellow spoke in human language: "Master, I'm not hungry; it's just that this shell contains fire-attribute law power, so I ate it!"

This voice was soft and sweet, like a three or four-year-old girl.

"Hey!" He Pingsheng was shocked, saying: "You can actually talk?"

He became interested.

"I am a Golden Core by birth, of course I can talk!" The little fellow looked at He Pingsheng.

He Pingsheng's heart shook: Golden Core by birth!

Good fellow!

His spiritual sense couldn't help but sweep over the little fellow, discovering that not only was it a Golden Core by birth, but its cultivation had already reached the peak of the twelfth layer of the Golden Core Stage.

Just one step away, and it could break through to the Nascent Soul realm.

*Hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss... *

So strong.

"What is your name?" He Pingsheng asked it.

The little fellow said: "Replying to Master, I am a True Blood Phoenix, possessing thirty percent phoenix bloodline, but I don't have a specific name yet!"

"Please bestow a name, Master!"

He Pingsheng thought for a moment and said: "Then... I see you are covered in red down, how about I call you Little Red..."

Then, He Pingsheng received a look of disdain from the little fellow.

Alright!

It seemed this fellow didn't like that name.

"Little Feng?"

"Little Huang!"

"Little Phoenix?"

Alright!

Looking at the little fellow's unwavering look of disdain, He Pingsheng said: "Alright, let me think... I will definitely give you a nice name!"

"What should I call you?"

He Pingsheng frowned and pondered.

"I heard the story of the phoenix perching on the paulownia tree, how about, from today on, you are called... wait... are you male or female?"

After hearing He Pingsheng's words, the little fellow said in a muffled voice: "I am a girl..."

"Uh!"

He Pingsheng touched his forehead and said: "Then... I will name you 【Ting Tong】!"

This time, the little fellow was satisfied; she jumped happily on the spot: "Good, good, good, the name Ting Tong is good. Master, from now on I am Ting Tong!"

He Pingsheng also nodded with satisfaction and said: "From now on, don't call me Master; it sounds awkward. Just call me Young Master!"

"Yes, Young Master!"

He Pingsheng reached out.

The chick, looking both cute and fat, jumped and landed in his palm.

He Pingsheng reached out and touched her head.

Tens of thousands of fine downy hairs retracted one by one like flowing water, sticking to her skin.

It felt furry and very cute!

Just like a furry toy.

"The wings are so small!" He Pingsheng touched her wings again and said: "They look just like the ice geese on the ice plains. You aren't a deformed phoenix, are you?"

"No!" Ting Tong said: "I haven't grown up yet, Young Master, don't say that about me!"

"Hmm!"

He Pingsheng nodded, then with a wave of his hand, the Eight-Treasure Ship expanded.

He threw Ting Tong onto the ship, put away the formations here, and then drove the Eight-Treasure Ship away, heading all the way to the Extreme North City.

He Pingsheng sat cross-legged on the deck of the Eight-Treasure Ship.

The furry little fellow sat on He Pingsheng's left side, also imitating his posture, sitting cross-legged.

Unfortunately, her legs were too short to cross.

She could only sit on the deck with her bottom, then stretch out her two short legs, which were covered by red down, revealing only two feet.

He Pingsheng squinted at the little fellow and found that there were actually webs connecting the little fellow's golden feet.

Hey...

Where is this a phoenix?

This is an ice goose!

That's right, if it weren't for someone who had seen phoenixes, especially phoenix chicks, all year round, they definitely wouldn't recognize this as a True Blood Phoenix.

After arriving at Extreme North City, He Pingsheng grabbed her little leg and threw the little phoenix into the Great Freedom Pearl.

Although it might not be recognized, it was better to be cautious.

Arriving at Extreme North City, he took an immortal ship and left.

Four or five days later, he returned to Red Stone City.

What made He Pingsheng happy was that Old Cheng, whom he had sent out years ago to search for his Master, had returned.

"Old Cheng?" He Pingsheng took a deep breath and walked over hurriedly, saying: "You're back... come, come, come..."

"Tell me about the situation in Dingxiang Commandery!"

He Pingsheng pulled Cheng Cheng Dao Cai all the way to the small courtyard, and the two sat down under the gazebo.

"How is it? Did you find my Master?" He Pingsheng asked.

Old Cheng shook his head: "Young Master, it is this old man's incompetence; I did not find them..."

"Didn't find them?" He Pingsheng frowned: "What is going on? Tell me about the situation in Dingxiang Commandery!"

"Alright!"

Cheng Cheng Dao Cai said: "Following your instructions, Young Master, I went to Dingxiang Commandery in the Qi Kingdom, found the territory of the Cultivation Alliance, and even set up a stall in the Matou Mountain market for several years to inquire about the situation!"

"The Tai Xu Men you mentioned was indeed destroyed by the Beast Taming Immortal Sect decades ago, and most of the disciples in the sect surrendered!"

"There were a few who escaped and have not been seen since!"

"Among those who escaped were True Person Yu Ning, True Person Yu Xuan, Zhao Linger, Xu Kunlun, Tian Xiaoqing, and others you mentioned!"

"About forty years ago, the Qi imperial family went to the Beast Taming Immortal Sect and killed one of the two Nascent Soul powerhouses of the Beast Taming Immortal Sect. Now, the Beast Taming Immortal Sect only has one Nascent Soul left!"

He Pingsheng smiled upon hearing this news.

Back then, he had pretended to be Shi Yuan and Li Mei of the Beast Taming Immortal Sect to take away the divine spear. The Qi imperial family must have been looking for the spear, which is why they killed that Nascent Soul of the Beast Taming Immortal Sect, right?

However, this was not important! ===== CHAPTER 388 =====
