While riding his horse and chatting with Ouyang Ye until sunset, Gu Qingfeng has finally arrived at the foot of the Redcloud Sect’s mountain .

In front of him was a towering mountain range, that lay there like a fiery red dragon, and was as gorgeous as a haze of clouds, hence the name of Redcloud Sect .
Gu Qingfeng still vaguely remembered that the reason why this mountain was like a red cloud was because of the rare and potent fire spiritual vein that the Redcloud Sect occupied . The spiritual energy contained within it was much better than ordinary spiritual energy . Due to this rare spiritual vein of fire, Redcloud has produced many experts for thousands of years .
Looking ahead of him, he saw the same towering mountains from 500 years ago, but the Redcloud Sect that resided on them was no longer the same from the past . Compared with those days, the Redcloud Sect of today was truly even more magnificent, with majestic buildings all over the mountains and all kinds of powerful formations that dazzled people .
According to Ouyang Ye, Redcloud Sect now had three mountains, six halls, nine peaks, and twelve courtyards, with more than 10,000 disciples . And these were just its disciples, altogether, the sect had also 24 gangs under its control and if the people from all of them were included, the number of members would’ve been even greater .
Gu Qingfeng could not help but sigh at this sight .
Maintaining a sect’s legacy was not easy, and people had to pay an unthinkable price to do so . Gu Qingfeng had seen a lot of sects that were not able to do this and have declined over the years .
But Redcloud Sect was truly commendable, because not only did it survive after the Tribulation of Heavens from 100 years ago, but it had grown even more powerful than before .
There were many people gathered on the dark-green lawn at the foot of the Redcloud Sect’s mountain, presumably, all of them were disciples from the sect . Some were laughing and playing, while some were practicing martial arts .
Along the way, quite a few disciples were greeting Ouyang Ye and calling her senior sister .
“You seem pretty popular . ”
Ouyang Ye responded proudly, “Obviously! I’m an inner sect disciple . ”

Gu Qingfeng smiled and didn’t speak . He had spent a few years in Cloud Sect when he was young and he knew the rules of Cloud Sect . The status of a janitor was the lowest, then came the outer sect disciples, inner sect disciples and there were even those direct disciples, whose status was even higher .
Power was the only thing that matter here . Even if an outer sect disciple had been in the sect for 30 years, he still had to show respect whenever he saw those higher than him/
However, this only applied to outer disciples and those higher than that . When it came to janitors, they did not even have qualifications to ask for guidance . Gu Qingfeng was very clear about this, and even now he still felt a little sad when he thought about the years he had spent as a janitor in the Redcloud Sect .
Although he had experienced a lot during his life and faced the punishment of the Immortal Dao, Devil Dao, and Heavenly Dao, and he even became the Underworld Emperor, he still couldn’t forget his janitor years in the Redcloud Sect .
Although they were some difficult years, this was the place where he set foot on the cultivation road and many of his unforgettable firsts had taken place here . Gu Qingfeng’s heart was very complicated as he entered the Redcloud Sect after 500 years . Especially when he looked at the little fellows who practiced their martial arts on the lawn .
While he was immersing in his memories, there was a sudden commotion among the disciples on the lawn, and then sharp chirping sounds echoed in his ears . Looking over, there seemed to be a flame that covered the sky, but after carefully gazing at it, he saw that it was actually an enormous fiery bird .
It reached one meter with its wings stretched, and while it soared in the sky, it resembled a Phoenix that was getting reborn after bathing in fire .
Gu Qingfeng was quite knowledgeable and recognized that this wasn’t an ordinary bird, but a very rare spiritual bird, named Blazing Flamingo, which had a relatively n.o.ble bloodline because its ancestor was the Vermilion Bird . The most important thing was that this bird was very sensitive towards fire spirit aura and it could very easily find fire spiritual veins .
“Your Redcloud Sect is really doing well nowadays since it can even raise this rare Blazing Flamingo . Where did you get it?”
In his impression, this type of bird was extremely rare, and it was almost extinct in the Near Ancient Era . In the past, Gu Qingfeng had only seen several Blazing Flamingos, that was why he was so surprised to see it again in the Redcloud Sect .
“What do you mean where did we get it? Why are you so rude?” Ouyang Ye angrily glared at him and explained, “The Blazing Flamingo ran into our Redcloud Sect by itself decades ago and is now the treasure of our sect . ”
Ran by itself into the Redcloud Sect?

Gu Qingfeng deduced that this Blazing Flamingo definitely appeared after the Tribulation of Heavens had pa.s.sed and all creatures had recovered . As for coming here by its own accord, that was most likely because it had taken a liking to the potent fire spiritual vein that the Redcloud Sect occupied .
The recovery of all creatures was surely worthy of its t.i.tle since it even brought back the Blazing Flamingos that were almost extinct in the Near Ancient Era .
Ouyang Ye raised her head and looked at the Blazing Flamingo soaring in mid-air, and she couldn’t help but say, “It’s so beautiful . it’s really like the legendary phoenix…huh? That’s bad!!”
Her expression changed dramatically because she saw that he Blazing Flamingo was flying to her side . Without even thinking about it, the little girl instinctively jumped up and fled, but she saw that Gu Qingfeng was still there . She wanted to go back and grab him, but it as already too late!
The Blazing Flamingo was rushing over at an extremely fast speed and she desperately shouted, “Why are you still standing there, you idiot! Run!”
Seeing how Gu Qingfeng continued to stand there motionless, she thought that he was definitely scared to death and could not move . Ouyang Ye’s heart almost stopped beating and she couldn’t breathe as she unblinkingly watched the Blazing Flamingo approaching with high speed .
She didn’t know why the Blazing Flamingo had suddenly appeared today, much less why it had rushed to Gu Qingfeng . She also didn’t know what was going to happen to Gu Qingfeng!
Would he be eaten alive, or burned alive?
However, after the Blazing Flamingo had arrived at Gu Qingfeng’s side, it happily fluttered around, which greatly calmed her down .
Wait!
Why was it flying so happily around him? And judging by its screeching, it was quite excited!
How did this happen?

Ouyang Ye could not understand the scene that was happening in front of her . She had been a disciple of this sect for two years, and she occasionally went to the Firecloud Peak to see the Blazing Flamingo, it had always appeared very quiet and despondent . Why did it become so excited after seeing Gu Qingfeng?
What was happening?
Not only was Ouyang Ye dumbfounded, but so were the other disciples that were standing on the lawn . They were all staring with wide eyes in disbelief at the scene before them
In the field, Gu Qingfeng stood there quietly and squinted his rather puzzled eyes as he looked at the Blazing Flamingo . To be honest, he hadn’t really expected this bird to come to him .
Was it possible that this bird sensed the aura of the Underworld Fire on him?
Gu Qingfeng had used the Underworld Fire and refined his body after he was crowned as the Underworld Emperor . Every hair, every inch of his body, every bone, and every drop of blood of his contained the aura of the Underworld Fire .
However, although this bird was rather sensitive when it came to fire spirit, it was impossible for it to sense the Underworld Fire .
Gu Qingfeng was extremely confident about this point . Not even immortals and devils were capable of sensing the Underworld fire on his body, so how could a trifling spiritual bird do it? Even if it has a little bit of the Vermilion Bird’s bloodline, it was impossible for it to sense it .
Hm?
After remembering that the Blazing Flamingo had a bit of the Vermilion Bird’s bloodline, Gu Qingfeng suddenly realized why this bird approached . This caused him to laugh .
The Underworld Fire was one of the ancestral fires of the world and it produced quite a lot of powerful beings, and the Vermilion Bird was one of them .
“Does this little fellow think I am its ancestor, the Vermilion Bird?” Looking at the bird flying around him, Gu Qingfeng shook his head helplessly and smiled .
The Blazing Flamingo seemed like he understood what he said and made a shrill chirping sound of excitement .
At this time, the lawn in front of the Redcloud Sect was already crowded with disciples, and even some of the elders had appeared and looked at this scene with unbelievable expressions .
“Who is this man?”
“I don’t know, he shouldn’t be a disciple of our sect . It seems like he came with senior sister Ouyang . ”
“Why is the Blazing Flamingo just flying around him?”
“I heard that the Blazing Flamingo was extremely sensitive to the fire spirit aura, could it be said that this guy possesses a rare Fire Spiritual Root?”
“It should be a very high Fire Spiritual Root . ”
“Maybe he has a Fire Spirit Exquisite Body!”
“Look, even Elder Mude is here!”
When an old man dressed in a white robe and holding a fly-whisk in his hand appeared, all the people in the bowed and shouted respectfully, “Elder Mude . ”
Upon hearing this name, Gu Qingfeng was slightly dazed and turned around
