Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Incubating the Phoenix Egg on Behalf

After the Mountain and Sea Gang was wiped out, both the Ye Family and Ye Lingyue had a peaceful half year.

The Ghost Emperor Wu Zhong also disappeared without a trace, and as time passed, Li City returned to its former tranquility.

After her breakthrough to the Postnatal stage, Ye Lingyue had yet to properly engage in martial arts training. Taking advantage of this period, besides sparring with Lan Cai’er, she spent the rest of her time in Hong Meng Heaven brewing Rainbow Five Treasures Brew, cultivating medicinal grass, and using Cauldron Breath to remove the snake venom from the Little Phoenix Egg.

During this time, Ye Lingyue also comprehended the second needle of the Ghost Sect Thirteen Needles, the Ghost Language.

Unlike the first needle, "Seven-step Fall," the second needle of the Ghost Sect Thirteen Needles, "Ghost Language," would make a person honestly respond to whatever they were thinking for a short period, completely out of control of their actions and speech—a powerful tool for coercion and deception.

Having comprehended the second needle, Ye Lingyue’s Dragon Saliva Needle technique also evolved from splitting into three to now splitting into six, significantly increasing its power.

When deployed together, the six needles could even penetrate a Yellow-grade battle armor in one go.

One day, after practicing the Ghost Sect Thirteen Needles, Ye Lingyue, as usual, treated the Little Phoenix Egg with Cauldron Breath.

After treatments for more than half a year, the poisonous spots on the Little Phoenix Egg had completely disappeared.

Now it looked no different from a regular egg, only significantly smaller than a typical Phoenix Egg.

"Zhiyo!" Ever since Ye Lingyue "wed" Little Zhiyo to the egg, it had been very concerned about the Little Phoenix Egg.

Seeing that the unsightly poisonous spot on the Phoenix Egg was finally gone, Little Zhiyo joyfully danced and waved its arms.

"The poisonous spot is healed, but I wonder how long it will take for the Phoenix Egg to hatch?" Ye Lingyue was a bit troubled by a dilemma; she had the Phoenix Egg, but how should it be hatched?

She wasn’t a hen, after all.

Or perhaps, she needed to look in a Spiritual Beast Store to see if there were any Middle or High-grade spirit birds that might help hatch the Little Phoenix.

"Little Zhiyo, for now, we have no way to hatch the Little Phoenix. We need to find a big bird," Ye Lingyue roughly mentioned the requirements for incubation to Little Zhiyo, who seemed baffled by the information.

For this reason, Ye Lingyue specifically visited the Spiritual Pet Store in Li City to look around.

In Daxia, keeping Spiritual Pets was very popular, with wealthy families and officials tending to keep several fierce Spiritual Beasts at home for both protection and showing off.

However, purchasing Spiritual Pets was subject to certain rules; generally, eggs of Spiritual Pets were the most expensive, while adult Spiritual Pets were cheaper due to their wildness and difficulty to tame.

Some young ladies, in particular, favored cute and dainty Spiritual Beasts.

Hence, when Ye Lingyue walked into the Spiritual Pet Store with Little Zhiyo, and the adorable Little Zhiyo was spotted, the ladies and madams there to pick out pet eggs all gathered around.

It took Ye Lingyue quite some effort to get away from these chattering ladies before she could ask the store owner about any Middle or High-grade female spirit birds.

"Mistress, you’re in luck; our store has just captured a Fourth-stage female Albatross. But it’s not cheap, and that Albatross is quite fierce," the Spiritual Pet Store owner led Ye Lingyue to the rearing room at the back of the store.

The Albatross, a spirit bird that lived on high cliffs in the sky, was known for its fast flight speed and was especially proficient in high-altitude swooping attacks. Typically, such Spiritual Pets were bought by the military to act as sentries.

This particular Albatross was pure white all over, with a ring of black fur only on the top of its head and a pair of brown eyes that were always vigilant of the surroundings.

It had been sent to the Spiritual Pet Store for more than a dozen days and remained very aggressive. Several caretakers had been pecked and injured, making the store owner afraid to sell it. If it could not be tamed, they would have no choice but to slaughter it.

At the sound of someone approaching, the Albatross went on alert, raising its head.

Upon seeing a stranger coming close, it let out a grunting noise from its throat like a fighting rooster.

"Dear customer, please don’t go any further. This creature will attack people; it can peck off a chunk of flesh in one bite. It’s very ferocious." The Spiritual Pet Store owner didn’t dare to move forward.

"Little Zhiyo, it’s your time to shine." Ye Lingyue glanced at her own Little Zhiyo.

After obtaining Little Zhiyo, Ye Lingyue had also discovered that, although the little guy was naughty and gluttonous, and didn’t possess many significant abilities, it seemed to have a very special talent in beast taming.

This could be seen obviously from its interaction with Dahuang.

Dahuang was very obedient to Little Zhiyo. Normal Spiritual Beasts would avoid it by a considerable distance. What about this Fourth-stage Albatross?

Seeing that it had a chance to show off, Little Zhiyo was very smug.

It shook its short legs in a show-off manner, then, thinking it was extremely cool, placed its hands behind its back and swaggered towards the Albatross.

The Spiritual Pet Store owner wanted to stop it but was stunned by a silencing gesture from Ye Lingyue.

The Albatross was initially vigilant, but upon seeing Little Zhiyo, it fluttered its wings, ready to swat it away with a flap.

But at that moment, Little Zhiyo suddenly let out a series of chirps.

Hearing that chirping, the Albatross, which had been holding its head high, lowered its head, and its wings folded in. The sounds coming from its throat also became much gentler.

Little Zhiyo’s skill had the Spiritual Pet Store owner green with envy; this little creature was really something.

Success! A thrill of joy ran through Ye Lingyue’s heart.

She took out the Phoenix Egg and stepped forward, wanting to ask the female Albatross to help hatch the Phoenix Egg.

But who knew, at the sight of the Phoenix Egg, the Albatross got so scared that it was petrified. Forget about hatching, it immediately hid in the corner, trembling non-stop.

"Zhiyo?" Little Zhiyo looked, made a helpless shrug, and walked in front of Ye Lingyue.

Unable to hatch?

Ye Lingyue understood what Little Zhiyo meant. The Phoenix is the king of birds; even a Ninth-grade spirit bird would not dare to touch the Phoenix Egg.

It seemed impossible to get help from this Albatross.

Ye Lingyue regretfully put away the Phoenix Egg.

"Dear customer, I’m so sorry, this useless thing, I’ve said before that it should be slaughtered." The Spiritual Pet Store owner saw the chance for earning Silver Taels slipping away and felt relieved.

Suddenly, the Spiritual Pet Store owner caught a furious glare and Little Zhiyo made a teeth-grinding gesture.

"Owner, I’ll buy this Albatross." Despite not being able to use the Albatross to hatch the Phoenix Egg, Little Zhiyo had already told her that the Albatross had recently become a mother, and in its nest, there were a bunch of hungry little Albatrosses awaiting feeding.

In the end, Ye Lingyue bought the Albatross for a high price of seven hundred Silver Taels.

Receiving the Silver Taels, the Spiritual Pet Store owner was cheerfully handing over the Albatross to Ye Lingyue while saying,

"Miss, that egg of yours must be a High-grade Spirit Bird Egg, right? If you can’t find a spirit bird to hatch it, manual hatching is also possible. Just place the egg in a warm environment for thirty consecutive days, and there is a chance that it will successfully hatch." The Spiritual Pet Store owner had never seen a Phoenix, let alone a Phoenix Egg, so naturally, he couldn’t recognize that it was the legendary Phoenix Egg.

The speaker had no intent and the listener had no care, yet upon hearing the hatching conditions, excitement and joy flickered in Little Zhiyo’s eyes.

Leaving the Spiritual Pet Store, Ye Lingyue went to the outskirts where she released the female Albatross.

"Be smarter next time, now hurry back, your children are waiting for you." Ye Lingyue sent the Albatross into the sky. The Albatross circled her head a few times and then let out a long cry, like an arrow shooting through the sky, it flew away.
