The air in the woodshed was not very good, but Ou Yangming and Big Yellow would not complain. They comprehended something as well when they sensed the unique power that overflowed as the little red bird released its spiritual world.

In actuality, based on Ou Yangming's relations.h.i.+p with the little red bird, he could enter the spiritual world at any time. Nonetheless, training and actual combat were two different things. The little bird was unquestionably carrying out actual combat at the moment and while the young fellow and the big yellow dog could not enter the world to observe it, they gained something due to the surges of energy change outside.

After an hour, the little bird suddenly flapped its wings and shouted, “I finally completed it. I'm exhausted from the meticulous work!”

It would not have acted like that in front of someone else, but it had no restrictions in front of Ou Yangming, hence it did not mind showing its ungraceful side at all.

“Did you succeed?” Ou Yangming's eyes lit up.

“I did it myself so of course, it was a success,” the little bird answered proudly while it stretched its feathers.

Ou Yangming nodded and expressed rather regretfully, “It's a pity that I couldn't witness such a marvelous secret technique.”

“Don't worry, you'll get the chance!” The little red bird moved its eyes around. It secretly decided that it would let Ou Yangming observe the process once it became more familiar with the secret technique. After all, the little bird did not want to embarra.s.s itself in front of its comrade, which it stumbled upon by chance.

“Woof!”

Big Yellow barked in confusion.

Ou Yangming turned to look and asked as he was surprised, “Lil' Red, why is he still looking like that?”

The little red bird had finished its trick, but Hong Feiyu was still dazed, which was the same as how he looked just now.

Upon seeing this, the little red bird blinked as it looked at Hong Feiyu, and it was feeling somewhat guilty. It had indeed seen and learned the secret technique to erase one's memory, but the magic art was incredibly difficult, and it did not have many chances to perform it.

Although the little bird had a good feeling that it probably succeeded, it was not confident about the actual effect.

'Did I make a mistake and tried to outsmart myself but ended in failure? Did I turn this fella into a fool?'

Ou Yangming and the creatures looked at each other, but they secretly had the same thought—turning the fellow into a fool was also a way to solve the problem…

“Ah—”

All of a sudden, Hong Feiyu's body quivered intensely, and he screamed as though he was utterly shocked.

Ou Yangming raised his eyebrows and began to gather power in his body. If a supreme powerhouse like the scholar suddenly went into a killing mode because he lost his mind, he would certainly cause irreparable damages. Therefore, the young fellow would not mind killing him if an accident really happened.

Nevertheless, Hong Feiyu did not turn violent. He half-crouched and half-kneeled as he put his hands on his head and seemed to be in extreme pain.

He inhaled deeply after a brief moment and finally calmed down.

“Brother Hong, are you feeling better now?” Ou Yangming twitched his mouth and asked.

Hong Feiyu opened his eyes in a daze, and his eyes seemed to have lost focus. Despite that, he looked like he finally recalled something after he looked at Ou Yangming for some time. “Bro-brother… W-what happened to me?”

Ou Yangming glanced at the little red bird, which was looking around but refused to look at him.

Feeling helpless, the young fellow cleared his throat and questioned, “Brother Hong, you suddenly pa.s.sed out just now. Have you not fully recovered yet?”

Hong Feiyu looked dumbfounded as he pondered, then he answered with a bitter smile, “Brother, please forgive me. For some reason, I feel like everything is in a mess in my head. Mm, I suddenly ended up in the lower realm and was defeated by you… Ah, I remember now! We promised that the loser will wors.h.i.+p the winner for a century!” His eyes suddenly lit up.

Ou Yangming stammered and looked at the little red bird.

The little fellow had a special ability to distinguish the authenticity of one's words.

It made an unnoticeable nod, which indicated that Hong Feiyu was not lying and meant what he said. As for why he had such a bizarre thought, it was probably related to how the little bird erased his memories.

“Hehe, Brother Hong, you're right.” Ou Yangming smiled embarra.s.sedly. “May I ask why you came to the lower realm?”

“Why I came to the lower realm?” Hong Feiyu frowned and was struck dumb. He was immersed in his memories as he replied to the young fellow, “I seemed to have infuriated a formidable spirit beast and was pursued by it. Oh, I accidentally got caught up in an interspatial disorder and ended up here.” He furrowed his eyebrows very much as he asked himself, “Why did I infuriate that spirit beast?”

Ou Yangming was relieved, and he quickly said, “Brother Hong, no matter what, since you're here, you should stay here for the time being. Let's find a way back to the upper realm together another time.”

Hong Feiyu was stunned, then he nodded and bowed at Ou Yangming. “Yes, thanks for your guidance, brother.”

“I'm Ou Yangming, and this is Big Yellow.” Ou Yangming chuckled.

The little red bird rolled its eyes because Ou Yangming introduced Big Yellow but ignored it, thus it was very irritated.

However, it was then when Ou Yangming channeled his thought into its mind.

'Lil' Red, you're my ultimate trump card, so it'll be better if lesser people know about you.'

The little red bird was taken aback, then it lifted its head high. Before long, it could not help but wonder, 'This isn't right; I must keep a low profile since I'm his ultimate trump card.'

With that, the little bird jumped on Ou Yangming's shoulder and laid low to conceal its magnificence.

'Mm, keeping a low profile like this seems quite interesting too.'

Following that, Hong Feiyu bowed at Ou Yangming and said, “Ah, so it's Brother Ou. Since I lost, I'll keep my word and obey you.”

Ou Yangming flapped his sleeves and commented, “Brother Hong, you're being too polite.”

Since the fellow forgot about the Tree of Splendour, Ou Yangming was not too wary of him. Moreover, having a helper like Hong Feiyu in this world could result in notable deterrence.

They conversed for a while longer. Hong Feiyu seemed to have acknowledged Ou Yangming's ident.i.ty, so he said everything he knew without reservations.

Furthermore, other than the Tree of Splendour, it did not forget anything else. In particular, the three fights he had against the Aquatics in Canghai City were still vivid in his mind.

The Aquatics' spirit beast this time was a rare spirit turtle. Once it utilized a water-mastery spell, the seas would rise, and the Aquatics would rage.

Having said that, the spirit turtle's greatest ability was not its offense, but its defense. Hong Feiyu had encountered the spirit turtle three times, each time was an earth-shattering battle, causing numerous powerhouses to be dead or injured from both sides, but both parties always ended up helpless.

The spirit turtle could not take down Hong Feiyu, but Hong Feiyu could not break the spirit turtle's defense too.

That said, Ou Yangming seemed indifferent after he heard Hong Feiyu's description of the spirit turtle.

Even though the spirit turtle's defense was remarkable, it depended on who it was up against. Hong Feiyu might not be able to break its defense, but it did not mean that Multi-armed King Kong was powerless too.

Ou Yangming believed that as long as the king kong was present, the spirit turtle would definitely regret having descended to this realm.

Even so, he raised another question as he was struck with a thought, “Brother Hong, do you know where the spirit turtle usually hides?”

“We looked into it before. The spirit turtle is extremely bold; it knows we can't do anything to it, so it's hiding only by the beach among dark reefs,” Hong Feiyu answered without any hesitation. He flushed as he added, “Frankly speaking, I tried to sneak an attack on it once but suffered a small loss.”

“Since you know where it's hiding, that'll be great.” Ou Yangming nodded and said, “Brother Hong, please come with me.”

After leaving the woodshed, Ou Yangming brought Hong Feiyu to a room and ordered the servants to prepare some toiletries and hot water. The scholar came out after half an hour feeling refreshed as he had washed off the dark spots on his skin. As a result, he looked like a brand new person as if he recovered his ident.i.ty and bearing as a powerhouse.

Ou Yangming nodded as he was pleased. He instructed someone to invite Feng Yiyuan to his residence.

Feng Yiyuan hurried over and arrived after a short while. He was full of smiles, but a look of worry could be seen deep inside his eyes.

Ou Yangming never spoke about how he would deal with Hong Feiyu after he captured him. Feng Yiyuan would typically be unconcerned because he could not meddle in fights of such a level but this time, the city was up against a big enemy. If Ou Yangming suddenly refused to take any further part in the matter, and if something happened to Hong Feiyu, who could resist the Aquatics' spirit beast?

Besides, Feng Yiyuan had other thoughts after communicating with the upper realm, which was why he was feeling more anxious.

Hence, he hastened over as fast as he could when Ou Yangming sent someone to invite him.

Who knew, Feng Yiyuan noticed Hong Feiyu standing behind Ou Yangming after he entered the main hall. The scholar seemed to have turned into another person as though he became the young fellow's bodyguard, so the great ancestor was quite puzzled.

Of course, he dared not question it at all, so he simply cupped his hands with a smile. “Master Ou, why have you summoned me?”

“We've discussed, and I know where the spirit turtle is hiding, so I'd like to go there to catch the whole lot in one go,” Ou Yangming expressed.

“Master Ou, the hiding spot of the Aquatics' spirit beast isn't a secret, but I heard they set up a formation there. If we go over, I'm afraid…” Feng Yiyuan was startled, and he stole a glance at the quiet Hong Feiyu and mumbled to himself, 'What exactly are they up to…'

Ou Yangming was slightly stunned. He turned to look at Hong Feiyu.

Hong Feiyu immediately explained, “Brother Ou, please don't worry. The Aquatics' formation is exceptionally crude, so it won't affect us at all.”

“What about Extreme Grade martial artists?” Ou Yangming frowned.

“Perhaps there'll be some negative effects,” Hong Feiyu answered after some thought.

Ou Yangming raised his eyebrows and glanced at the little red bird half-intentionally. He later noted with a smile, “It's not a big problem; I'll handle it.”

Hong Feiyu looked where he was looking too but somehow s.h.i.+vered. He thought, 'This is absurd. What's so scary about a pet bird…'
