Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 1476: Chapter 536: The Secret Has Been Discovered

The failure of the Great Nirvana was an immensely heavy blow for the Old Clan Leader.

It also made him realize that with his aptitude, he wouldn’t be able to endure a second Great Nirvana in his lifetime.

Jiunie Mountain isn’t the best place for the Phoenix Clan to cultivate.

If Jiuqu Volcano erupts again, I’m afraid the entire Jiunie Mountain would be obliterated, potentially affecting nearby villages and harming innocents.

These are things the Old Clan Leader does not wish to see.

Yet the Old Clan Leader’s hope wasn’t completely shattered, he saw hope in his granddaughter, Little Wuya.

An innate Illusion Phoenix who also possesses Ancient Phoenix Blood; most importantly, Little Wuya has a group of companions who can walk with her.

If anyone can challenge the Great Nirvana, it can only be Little Wuya.

”Father, Little Wuya has just returned to us, I beg you...”

When the Ice Phoenix heard that her daughter would leave again, her heart broke.

”Woman’s perception! A true phoenix can soar beyond the nine heavens. How can a small Jiunie Mountain confine the mightiest Phoenix Divine Bird?”

The Old Clan Leader’s rebuke made the Ice Phoenix’s gaze dim.

The Fire Phoenix patted her shoulder and comforted his beloved wife.

Actually, they all understood that Little Wuya’s talent surpassed either of them, she had a broader sky.

Little Wuya’s eyes were red; only at this moment did she realize Grandpa had seen through her heart.

Since the day she returned to Jiunie Mountain, her heart was anxious.

On one hand, she was immersed in the joy of reuniting with her parents and brother; on the other, she worried about separating from the leader and Little Zhiyo.

She didn’t even know how to choose.

But Grandpa’s decision pointed her a clear way.

This seemingly strict, emotionless old man had seen through everything with his wise eyes.

He probably had long seen that Little Zhiyo wasn’t an ordinary Beast Clan.

Any beast clan that can survive the heavy blow of the Elixir Fire Phoenix must be a top-tier beast clan surpassing Phoenix Bloodline.

Yet, proud as he was, the Old Clan Leader would never admit this verbally, but his attitude clarified everything.

”Grandpa, your granddaughter will solemnly heed your teachings, no matter where she may be in the future, she will always remember the mission she carries.”

Little Wuya choked, making a promise like an oath.

”Old Clan Leader, Father-in-law, Mother-in-law, I promise you, I will accompany Little Wuya. Not becoming a Divine Bird, I swear not to be human.”

Little Zhiyo grasped Little Wuya’s hand, both their eyes filled with infinite hope for the future.

Seeing the happiness return to their daughter’s face, the Fire Phoenix and Ice Phoenix couple suppressed all their reluctance.

”Everyone, this time, had it not been for your strong support, Jiunie Mountain would not have been preserved. But you are ultimately alien races, it’s not suitable for you to stay here long, please descend the mountain soon.”

After receiving promises from Little Wuya and Little Zhiyo, the Old Clan Leader coldly issued a guest expulsion order.

The time for farewell had arrived.

Little Wuya, with reluctance, bid farewell to the Fire Phoenix, Ice Phoenix, and her brothers one by one.

The Huangquan team began sorting their luggage, ready for departure.

At this time, Ye Lingyue was singled out by the Old Clan Leader.

”Captain Ye, please stay.”

The Old Clan Leader dismissed his servants, remaining alone with Ye Lingyue.

”Old Clan Leader, why have you asked me to stay? Do you have any advice?”

Ye Lingyue and this stern old clan leader had hardly ever spoken privately; it was obvious he didn’t like Humans.

Conversely, she didn’t like this Old Clan Leader either.

Although he claimed to be a Phoenix, Ye Lingyue always felt his tea-colored eyes resembled a hawk’s, making her uncomfortable.

”Talents emerge with each generation, it’s unexpected that Captain Ye is the one who hides the deepest.”

The Old Clan Leader spoke with meaningful intent.

Ye Lingyue was slightly stunned, her expression unchanged.

”What does Old Clan Leader mean by this? Ling Yue is ignorant, she doesn’t understand the specifics of your words.”

”Captain Ye possesses a treasure, yet never shows it, had it not been for this Great Nirvana, I’m afraid I would have misjudged. Unexpectedly, in the mortal world, someone holds a Treasure Tripod only found in the Divine Realm.”

As the Old Clan Leader finished, Ye Lingyue’s nerves tensed abruptly, ready to spring like a predator.

She never anticipated that he’d seen through the secret of her possessing the Qian Cauldron!

Thousands of thoughts flashed through her mind as Ye Lingyue weighed whether to face off with the Old Clan Leader.

But this old man’s strength matched a Great Divine Power Realm expert; to assassinate him would require a successful strike.

After weighing the situation, Ye Lingyue made a decision.

While Ye Lingyue pondered, the Phoenix Emperor was also scrutinizing Ye Lingyue; for a moment, he felt a chill of killing intent from her.

But that killing intent quickly vanished.

The Old Clan Leader’s stern face softened with admiration.

This is someone skilled at assessing circumstances; so young yet possessing such adaptability, it seems his granddaughter’s insight is far superior to his own rigid views.

”Captain Ye, do not worry. I am not your enemy; you must be curious why I discovered your secret.”

The Old Clan Leader’s face was tranquil.

He told Ye Lingyue that he discovered the secret because Ye Lingyue used the Qian Cauldron to attack the Elixir Fire Phoenix to protect Little Zhiyo at the last moment.

The Phoenix Clan initially guarded the Fang Immortal’s alchemy furnace as divine beasts, even when banished from the Human Realm; as descendants of the Elixir Fire Phoenix, their ability to discern the Divine Realm’s cauldrons exceeded normal limits.

Though heavily injured, the Old Clan Leader felt a treasure aura comparable to the Divine Realm’s cauldron.

”You might not know, the Elixir Fire Phoenix you defeated was formed by the first Phoenix Clan Leader sealing his divine power beneath Jiuqu Volcano before his fall. Had it not been struck by the Treasure Tripod, nobody would have been able to defeat it. This time, the Old Clan Leader and the entire Phoenix Tribe owe you a debt.”

The Old Clan Leader hadn’t seen Ye Lingyue’s Qian Cauldron directly, but he had deduced Ye Lingyue must hold a treasure, hence he questioned her.

”The Old Clan Leader is too courteous; you are Little Wuya’s grandfather, which makes you like my grandfather. Helping the Phoenix Tribe was merely a small gesture.”

Ye Lingyue was slightly relieved after hearing this, her words became more polite.

”Little girl, stop pretending with me. Who was it earlier that considered silencing the Old Clan Leader?”

The Old Clan Leader pointedly called out Ye Lingyue’s intention, and she coughed awkwardly.

”I am a person of clear grievances and favors; you saved Little Wuya, thus owing you a favor, now an even larger favor. I have nothing to repay you with, so I’ll offer you some news that might be of use.”
