Chapter 60: Chapter 58: Ascending the Flame Peak

Lu Zhuoyan followed excitedly.

"Shi Nian, you said you wanted to resolve the feud with Fire Flame Venerable. Do you have any ideas?" Lu Zhuoyan asked curiously: "Which came first, the chicken or the egg, do you have an answer to that question?"

Shi Nian rolled her eyes: "How could there be an answer to such a question."

"Oh, so what’s your plan?" Lu Zhuoyan grew even more curious.

Shi Nian chuckled and stayed mysteriously silent.

Lu Zhuoyan, being an exceptionally curious person, felt like there were millions of ants crawling over his heart, itching unbearably.

But Shi Nian just wouldn’t say anything.

At that moment, Lu Zhuoyan felt quite resentful.

They arrived at Fire Flame Peak.

Shi Nian stood at the foot of the mountain and earnestly said to the disciple guarding the mountain: "Fellow brother, please report for me, Shi Nian of Ling Tian Peak requests an audience with Fire Flame Venerable."

While Shi Nian’s attitude was very polite, the guarding disciple kept retreating several steps and even covered his mouth in fright.

Huh?

Shi Nian was puzzled.

Lu Zhuoyan explained: "Fire Flame Venerable has a fiery temper. The first rule of joining Fire Flame Sect is not to talk to anyone from Ling Tian Peak."

Shi Nian’s brows twitched.

Is this what they call a fiery temper?

This is more like throwing a child’s tantrum...

Shi Nian cleared her throat and said, "Brother, you don’t need to talk to me. Just convey a message for me, say that I have a way to solve the plight of the Blaze Chicken."

Oh?

The disciple couldn’t help but look at Shi Nian curiously.

The chicken-and-egg dilemma, an annoying question that had plagued Blaze Chicken for three hundred years, had forced all these disciples to think of solutions too.

But after so many years, everyone was helpless.

Did Shi Nian really have a solution?

"I wouldn’t have come here if I wasn’t confident," Shi Nian said with a look of assurance.

After sizing her up for a moment, the disciple turned and ran up the mountain.

After a while.

He flew back down, and without saying a word, gestured for Shi Nian and Lu Zhuoyan to follow him.

As they walked along the way.

Shi Nian was full of emotions.

In Divine Martial Sect, there are Five Peaks, each with a presence in the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.

After new disciples join, they are divided into Outer Disciples and Inner Sect Disciples, as well as True Disciples.

Among them.

Those chosen by any of the Five Peaks become Inner Sect Disciples.

Those who are taken in by the Venerables or the Sect Leader become True Disciples.

The rest are Outer Disciples.

Outer Disciples receive the least resources, cultivate the hardest path, and are at the bottom of Divine Martial Sect.

But becoming an Inner Sect Disciple is different.

First of all, resources will substantially increase.

Secondly, senior brothers and sisters from your peak will help explain things.

Most importantly, if you’re lucky, the Venerable will give lectures personally.

Therefore.

All Outer Disciples are desperate to join the Inner Sect.

When Shi Nian was doing the greeting task before, aside from her senior sisters, she would greet anyone she encountered.

With the reputation of Ling Tian Peak, those she greeted were all Outer Disciples.

The Luck Value of these Outer Disciples was basically 1 point.

Only occasionally would there be someone with 2 points.

With such Luck Values, it’s extremely difficult for Outer Disciples to stand out.

Shi Nian faintly had an idea.

Outer Disciples, Inner Sect Disciples, True Disciples.

The entire disciple system of the Divine Martial Sect seemed somewhat rigidly hierarchical.

Those Outer Disciples who work the hardest and give the most, do they truly have no complaints?

Unconsciously, Shi Nian stroked her chin.

The idea in the bottom of her heart became clearer.

There was still one month until Long Aotian’s arrival.

In this one month, she must make a big splash.

Among the Five Peaks, Ling Tian Peak was the most peculiar. Aside from the five True Disciples, there were no other disciples on the whole Ling Tian Peak.

Yet on the way to Fire Flame Peak, Shi Nian encountered dozens of disciples.

It could be described as bustling with excitement.

Just arriving at the peak’s summit.

The disciple who had just led Shi Nian up bowed toward a certain direction, and then hurriedly left.

Shi Nian felt something and looked up.

She saw a red-haired, burly man coldly gazing at her.

"Junior, where is your Master? He doesn’t dare to come to my doorstep himself and sends you to die instead?" the Fire Flame Venerable scoffed with a cold laugh.

Shi Nian was not flustered at all, her face filled with admiration as she looked at the Fire Flame Venerable, "Master often tells me that although the Fire Flame Venerable has a fiery temper, he is the most straightforward and just, his most valued friend. Today seeing the Venerable, you are just as majestic and imposing as Master described."

Fire Flame Venerable: "...Hah! Your Master would say such things? You think I’m a three-year-old child?"

Shi Nian with a serious face: "If Master had not spoken like that, how dare I fabricate such claims? Venerable, you might not believe it, but to Master, you truly are his best friend."

The Fire Flame Venerable momentarily hesitated, then let out a cold laugh, "With his foul temper, besides me, indeed no one else would want to be his friend. But, our friendship ended three hundred years ago! Junior, if you’re only here to speak for him, you’d better leave quickly."

Shi Nian quickly said, "The incident from three hundred years ago was not intentional on Master’s part. Regardless, a casual remark from Master led to Senior Zhi Yan Chicken being trapped, and he has been feeling guilty for years. Over these three hundred years, Master has been pondering a solution, and now he has a lead. However, he’s too ashamed to meet you, so he sent me to try my luck. Venerable, please give me a chance to meet Senior Zhi Yan Chicken."

The Fire Flame Venerable froze for a moment: "He has been thinking of a solution all this time?"

"Of course." Shi Nian nodded affirmatively.

The Fire Flame Venerable fell silent for a while before speaking, "If that’s the case, I will give you a chance. But let me make it clear upfront, if you can’t solve the problem, I’ll throw you both off the peak!"

"Yes." Shi Nian smiled in response.

The Fire Flame Venerable saw Shi Nian showing no fear and squinted his eyes.

Could this junior actually have a way?

The Fire Flame Venerable fell silent, walking along, and soon he led both of them to the back mountain.

As soon as they entered the rear mountain.

An intense heat rushed at them; the wild flames were scattered throughout the space, attacking indiscriminately.

The Fire Flame Venerable deliberately took a step back.

Waiting to see these juniors make fools of themselves.

This flame was involuntarily emitted by the Zhi Yan Chicken.

Now in the Nascent Soul Stage, the intensity of these flames was enough to give these juniors a hard time.

Of course, the Fire Flame Venerable wouldn’t actually let them get hurt, he just wanted to scare them.

Shi Nian watched as a streak of fire flew straight towards her and she extended her hand.

The Fire Flame Venerable was startled.

This junior, she actually caught a Spirit Beast’s True Fire with her hand!

Has she gone mad?

Before he could act.

The fire obediently settled in Shi Nian’s palm.

Shi Nian nodded in satisfaction: "Quite warm."

She even casually grabbed a few more flames and performed some acrobatics on the spot.

Fire Flame Venerable: "..."

???

This junior, isn’t she in the Qi Refinement Realm?
