Chapter 786 Thoughts
In fact, it wasn't just the young master of Lingxiao Sect who didn't understand why the Red Brocade Rat Clan Chief was so friendly to Lin Zhao and the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, even to the point of being obsequious; even Jinmao, who was now just a soul and the eldest son of the clan chief, couldn't understand it either.
He angrily shook his soul, trying to attract his father's attention. Sure enough, the clan chief still cared about this son who was quite talented, and looked at him.
Jinmao immediately asked, "Father, why were you so polite to that vile woman? Look at the state of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan now, how dare they be our enemy?"
The Red Brocade Rat Clan Chief gave him a meaningful look, perhaps with a hint of disappointment in his eyes. But in the end, he reasoned that this was his most talented offspring, and even if he was a little slow-witted, he could still be saved. There was no need to give up on him directly. So he patiently explained, "Do you know who it was that helped the Heavenly Phoenix Clan withstand the Seven Star Palace forces that the Teng Snake Clan brought out back then?"
Jinmao looked at his father blankly.
After all, the arrival of the Ancient Dragon Clan in the Heavenly Phoenix Clan was not made public. Otherwise, just based on the reputation of the Ancient Dragon Clan, the Heavenly Phoenix Clan's doorstep would be worn down by now.
“It’s the Ancient Dragon Clan,” said the chieftain of the Red Brocade Rat Clan.
Upon hearing this, Jinmao immediately exclaimed, "How is that possible? The Heavenly Phoenix Clan killed a direct descendant of the Teng Snake Clan who was related to Young Master Youli. How could the Ancient Dragon Clan be on good terms with the Heavenly Phoenix Clan?"
The Red Brocade Rat Clan Chief looked at his stupid son with pity: "That's why I said you don't know anything. In the Ancient Dragon Clan, although Young Master Youli is the only legitimate son of the Clan Chief and his wife, in fact, he didn't even get the position of Young Master at the beginning, let alone now that the Ancient Dragon Clan has basically decided to place the position of Young Master Youchen."
Jinmao had also heard about the last piece of news the Red Brocade Rat Clan Chief had mentioned, and he immediately frowned: "Could it be that the people from the Ancient Dragon Clan this time are Young Master Youchen's people?"
In that case, he could understand why his father's attitude towards the Tianhuang Clan and Lin Zhao had suddenly become so good.
Since the path to the Tengshe Clan is blocked, why not try the path to the Tianhuang Clan?
You should know that relying on Youchen is much more worthwhile than relying on Youli, who is just a young master.
The chieftain of the Golden-haired Rat Clan stroked his mustache, smiled, and shook his head: "You didn't expect that, did you? Your father has no intention of continuing to serve as a subject of the Ancient Dragon Clan."
Jinmao was puzzled: "Could there be a divine beast race in the True Spirit Realm that is even more powerful than the Ancient Dragon Clan?"
The clan chief said, "It doesn't exist now, but that doesn't mean it didn't exist then or won't exist in the future."
Jinmao frowned: "The only clan that could ever surpass the Ancient Dragon Clan was the Heavenly Phoenix Clan at its peak... Father, you wouldn't be thinking of joining the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, would you?"
Jinmao felt a sense of shame when he said this.
He looked at his father with utter disbelief, as if his own father were a madman.
The chieftain of the Red Brocade Rat Clan said, "What, you're not satisfied? You should know that the Heavenly Phoenix Clan of the past and the Heavenly Phoenix Clan of today are not the same thing."
Jinmao retorted, "Even if they are completely different concepts, the strongest person in the Phoenix Clan today is only a Three Yang Immortal Emperor. In the Ancient Dragon Clan, that person probably wouldn't even be able to become an elder. That's too beneath them."
Even if their Red Brocade Rat Clan is weak, their innate talent for treasure hunting makes it easy for them to attach themselves to a force whose strongest member is at least a Three Yang Immortal Emperor. "Or is it, Father, that you really think highly of this Lin Zhao?"
The chieftain of the Red Brocade Rat Clan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his son had finally figured it out, realizing that his son wasn't exceptionally stupid.
"This Lin Zhao is the same Lin Zhao who researched the furnace and the Qiankun Mirror in the lower realm, the Dragon-Phoenix Emperor who unified the two planes of Dragon and Phoenix, and also the Tian Shu Star Lord of the Seven Star Palace."
All the hype surrounding the event couldn't compare to the sheer impact of the final Seven Star Palace Immortal Master.
However, when Jinmao realized what was happening, he couldn't help but ask, "The Qiankun Mirror and that Lin Zhao from the furnace?"
Unifying the Dragon and Phoenix planes, becoming the Dragon and Phoenix Emperors—these are child's play achievements for the people of the Upper Realm. They're nothing special, since any Immortal King from the Upper Realm could easily wreak havoc in the Lower Realm.
However, the upper realm has been observing the existence of the furnace and the Qiankun Mirror, two artifacts that can cause substantial damage to evil thoughts from other realms and have turned the tide of the battle in the lower realm.
Jinmao was surprised to learn that Lin Zhao was the one who developed these two things. He felt a bit unlucky.
"Moreover, Lin Zhao's abilities are not limited to this. Our people in the Alliance told me that Lin Zhao has developed a talisman that can kill evil thoughts from other worlds, and he plans to sell it to the Alliance at a 40/60 split."
Having said all that, even if Jinmao were a fool, he could tell how terrifying Lin Zhao was and the rising future of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan.
"Furthermore, her own cultivation level is also that of a Double Yang Immortal King. With her around, how can the Heavenly Phoenix Clan not be revived? And once the Heavenly Phoenix Clan is revived, the speed will be... Don't underestimate a race that once surpassed the Ancient Dragon Clan. At that time, it is still unknown whether the Heavenly Phoenix Clan will still look down on our Red Brocade Rat Clan."
The Red Brocade Rat Clan runs a large family with many offspring, but it has never held a high position in the True Spirit Realm. They are always forced to have some individuals with good talent and bloodline taken away by powerful and domineering clans to be raised as pets. The clan leader has been enduring this for a long time.
However, the clan leader also understood the limits of the Red Brocade Rat Clan. They could not compete with these clans that shared common interests on their own. Therefore, the Red Brocade Rat Clan was eager to find a powerful patron to rely on.
The ancient dragons were chosen earlier.
Unfortunately, the direct line of the Tengshe clan, who had used the ancient dragon clan as a bridge, is gone, and they have to start all over again.
Fortunately, although their potential is not high, their ability to gather information is still among the best in the True Spirit Realm. After all, in addition to treasure hunting, their talents in concealment and disguise are also first-rate.
It was precisely because he knew so much information that the Red Rat Chieftain wanted to take a gamble.
Anyone can add flowers to brocade, but it's not easy to build a deep emotional bond with the Phoenix Clan. However, few people can offer help in times of need.
Although his son offended the Heavenly Phoenix Clan this time, every cloud has a silver lining. Who knows, maybe the Red Brocade Rat Clan can seize this opportunity to ride the coattails of the Red Brocade Rat Clan's rising power and soar to new heights!
The Red Rat Chieftain was overjoyed at this thought and immediately instructed his son: "I will entrust this matter to your sister. You need to correct your impetuousness and narrow-mindedness. During this time, you should calm down and reflect on your actions and rebuild your physical body."
