Chapter 787 Active Contract
The Heavenly Phoenix Clan, main hall.

Lin Zhao looked at the mountain of treasures and rare materials before him, then at the little girl who was only shoulder-high in front of him, and asked, "Are you the young lady of the Red Brocade Rat Clan?"

Although she was described as a little girl, she was clearly only a bit shorter; her face didn't look much younger than Lin Zhao's.

This is just based on appearance. Considering the adult age of various divine beast races in the upper realm, the other party's age is likely to be hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years old.

“Yes, my name is Hongyu,” Hongyu said.

Lin Zhao thought to herself that this wasn't the point, the point was...

Huang Qing spoke first: "You want to form a master-servant contract with my clan's young master?"

Huang Yan and Huang Yu stood to the side, their brows furrowed.

This is not because Hongyu's request is a bad thing. On the contrary, Hongyu's talent is second to none in the Red Brocade Rat Clan. She is also one of only two strong people in the younger generation of the Red Brocade Rat Clan with the cultivation level of Great Luo Golden Immortal.

However, it was precisely because Hongyu's own talent and family background were so outstanding that they became suspicious.

Lin Zhao severely injured Hongyu's brother, and Jinmao's physical body was completely destroyed because of Lin Zhao. Even so, Hongyu was willing to become Lin Zhao's contracted beast.
If Hongyu and Jinmao had a bad relationship, that would be one thing, but Jinmao, while not a great person, was at least somewhat loving towards his only twin sister, so their relationship wasn't bad. Even so, Hongyu was still willing to become Lin Zhao's contracted beast.

Could there be a trap here?

Their thoughts were also Lin Zhao's thoughts. Although she didn't know the relationship between Hongyu and Jinmao, or what the situation was, it didn't stop her from not wanting to sign a contract with them.

Firstly, Lin Zhao prefers to fight alone, and even if a real fight breaks out, it would be a pipe dream for Hongyu to keep up with her level of combat prowess.

Secondly, Lin Zhao also planned to bring Jin Ya up.

If I remember correctly, Jin Ya really likes to eat these...

In short, Lin Zhao was not very able to accept it.

"My talent for treasure hunting is the strongest in the clan. If Fairy Lin is willing to accept me, I am willing to follow your lead."

Lin Zhao leaned back in his chair, letting his thoughts drift into the soft fabric of the leather, and asked, "What do you want?"

To be honest, she was somewhat tempted by those words.

After all, she was going to the Ancestral Phoenix Tomb, and she didn't know what was inside. She was going to the ancient battlefield in the future, and having a contracted beast that was naturally able to avoid harm and seek benefit from things in a place would indeed save her a lot of effort.

Hongyu paused for a moment, then said, "I want to grow taller."

Lin Zhao: “?”

Huang Yan and Huang Yu, who were standing next to them, were both somewhat surprised.

For cultivators, especially those who have broken through to the True Immortal level, changing their appearance is a matter of an instant.

However, most cultivators simply use their original appearance for the sake of convenience when walking.

If you're really so dissatisfied with your true appearance, you can just pretend to be someone else. Why bother being a servant?
However, Lin Zhao quickly understood what the other party really meant: "You want to break through the bloodline limit of your race?"

Hongyu nodded vigorously: "For thousands of years, our race has been kept by various races because of our treasure-hunting ability. It was only in recent years, under the organization of Father and Grandfather, that we have formed a family. But this is only temporary. Soon, those domineering races that do not want us treasure-hunting beasts to become independent will come to interfere."

Lin Zhao rested her chin on her hand: "So, you think I can help you?"

Lin Zhao thought about it carefully and said, "You must understand that only the power of the Creator God can truly change the origin of a race."

Hongyu smiled and said, "Even if we can't change the origin, we just hope that one day the Phoenix Clan will rise to power and leave a small world for our Red Brocade Rat Clan to live independently."

Lin Zhao looked at Huang Yan and Huang Yu, but the two avoided her gaze.

Huang Qing also bit her lip and shook her head with Lin Zhao. Weren't the Red Brocade Rat Clan's worries exactly the same as theirs?

The Red Rat Clan's treasure-hunting talent is too conspicuous. "A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime." Having such an ability but lacking the strength to protect oneself is itself a reason for persecution.

If the Phoenix Clan were to stand with them at this time, they would undoubtedly be putting themselves in the eye of the storm.

Seeing the reactions of these Heavenly Phoenixes, Lin Zhao paused for a moment.

Hongyu noticed this scene, her eyes darkened, and her hands unconsciously clenched into fists as she nervously looked at Lin Zhao.

Lin Zhao sat up straight when a voice suddenly came from the other side and entered her ears.

"can."

Upon hearing what the voice said, Lin Zhao replied without hesitation, "But in addition to you forming a contract with me, the Red Brocade Rat Clan must also become a vassal of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan."

Hongyu paused for a moment, then said, "Hongyu has no authority to make this decision, but I think Father will agree."

Lin Zhao smiled slightly: "Then I look forward to our future cooperation. Come with me, let's sign the contract."

As soon as Lin Zhao left, Huang Qing, Huang Yan, and Huang Yu all stood up at the same time and looked at the person standing in a certain direction outside the door.

Because they knew very well that it was because this person had communicated something with Lin Zhao that Lin Zhao made this decision.

“Young Master Qu Shu…” Huang Qing looked at the young man she had once admired with a complicated expression and asked, “Why?”

Qu Shu smiled and said, "The Heavenly Phoenix Clan needs it. Is that reason enough?"

Huang Yanhuang Yu originally wanted to say something, but when she met Qu Shu's silver eyes, which seemed to be full of meaning, she couldn't say anything.

"Don't worry, we have the Ancient Dragon Clan behind us. No one is foolish enough to offend them." Qu Shu looked in another direction.

Lying there is You Shen, who has completely solved the problem of the Yuan Kong body.

The other person was lying lazily on the railing, seemingly looking at the sky.

Upon seeing You Shen, Huang Qing's expression became even more complicated.

"Young Master Qu Shu, Na Youshen..."

They could all see what kind of feelings You Shen had for Lin Zhao, and she didn't believe that Qu Shu, who was so sensitive to everything, wouldn't sense it.

Perhaps they not only sensed it, but even tacitly accepted it?
What exactly are you thinking?

Qu Shu said, "Doesn't the Ancestral Phoenix also serve the Ancestral Phoenix along with other divine beasts? Why are you so surprised... Besides, perhaps in Lin Zhao's eyes, I am not considered an Ancestral Phoenix."

No matter how many Daoist partners Zu Huang has, Zu Feng will always be her rightful first husband.

But myself...

"So there's no need to worry about these things, is there?" Qu Shu said. "As long as the clan's goals and my own wishes can be achieved, isn't that enough?"

Huang Yan asked, "Has your wish truly been fulfilled?"

How can it not be considered an achievement?

My father was rescued and became the head of the clan. My mother's grave was moved back to the Tianhuang Cemetery.

There's only one thing left to do.

As long as he didn't have any unrealistic expectations, he achieved everything he had ever dreamed of.
