Ready

A boy making fire and an old woman sweeping the floor

Inside the woodshed!

Phoenix Aotian looked at Extinction Supreme, who was kneeling at his feet.

He was amused.

"Are you sincere?"

"I am sincere!"

"Not forced?"

"Not forced at all!"

Extinction Supreme spoke very quickly, her will to survive extremely firm.

"Alright!"

"Seeing as your attitude is quite sincere, I will give you a chance to live."

"Name?"

"Extinction!"

"Where are you from?"

"Asking Heart Sect!"

"Why were you investigating my Phoenix Feather Sect?"

"Child of Ultimate Bliss went missing; my superior sent me to find him."

"I had no ill intentions towards your sect. Please, Senior, be lenient and spare my life, considering it was an unintentional offense."

As she said this, Extinction Supreme's heart was filled with bitterness.

Using divine sense to investigate other sects was a major taboo in the cultivation world.

Although many sects had formations to block divine sense, this act was, for the investigated sect, an extremely serious provocation.

She had originally thought that in the Void Domain, there would be few experts who could impress her.

Let alone in this remote and impoverished place.

She had never expected that in such a place she looked down upon, there would be terrifying experts like Phoenix Aotian and Feng Buqun hidden.

From their bodies, she vaguely sensed a unique aura belonging to a Saint Realm expert.

This meant that these two were very likely Saint Realm experts.

At this moment, she finally understood why Child of Ultimate Bliss had fallen here.

At the same time, a deep sense of regret arose from her rashness.

But now, thinking about these things was useless.

When Phoenix Yingtian walked towards her just now, and when she felt her life could be taken at any moment.

She realized how wonderful and fortunate it was to be alive.

Next, Phoenix Aotian questioned her further about Asking Heart Sect.

However, Extinction Supreme, like Child of Ultimate Bliss, was subjugated by Asking Heart Sect halfway through, and her understanding of Asking Heart Sect was not much more than Child of Ultimate Bliss's.

She did not provide much valuable information.

As the questioning ended, Extinction Supreme knelt on the ground, like a prisoner, awaiting Phoenix Aotian's judgment.

Her heart was uneasy, and she suppressed her inner fear, saying, "Senior, every word I have spoken is true."

"As long as Senior spares my life, I am willing to pledge allegiance to your sect."

"To be a Protector Elder!"

"At the very least, being a commander is also acceptable."

She was confident that with her strength, she was a top-tier and transcendent existence in the entire Void Domain.

Even if this Phoenix Feather Sect was extremely transcendent, an expert like her joining should still secure her a place.

However, when Phoenix Aotian heard her request.

He looked at Extinction Supreme as if she were an idiot.

"What are you dreaming about?"

"I am only a Protector Elder myself."

"As for commander, my Phoenix Feather Sect does not have that position."

"Currently, the sect is indeed in need of a Sweeping Old Woman."

"Are you willing to take on this position?"

Upon hearing this, Extinction Supreme's body trembled, and her pupils slightly constricted.

She suspected that there was something wrong with her ears.

An Extinction Supreme expert like her, being asked to be a Sweeping Old Woman?

This was an insult beyond measure.

A strong sense of grievance arose within her.

She felt an unprecedented humiliation.

Phoenix Aotian saw her expression and couldn't be bothered to waste words with her.

"Yingtian, it seems she doesn't think highly of the position my Phoenix Feather Sect offers. In that case, send her on her way!"

"Consider it atonement for her offense against my Phoenix Feather Sect!"

"Wait!"

Extinction Supreme's face changed drastically, feeling extremely wronged.

She hadn't said she wasn't willing!

He kept threatening her life at every turn.

Did he have no demeanor of a senior expert?

After weighing dignity against life and death, she said with a bitter face, "This old woman is willing to work for the Phoenix Feather Sect!"

Phoenix Aotian glanced at her indifferently.

"Don't force yourself! Looking at you, one might think I'm forcing you."

If she hadn't known she couldn't win, Extinction Supreme truly wanted to grab his neck and question him; constantly threatening my life, and you call this not forcing me?

But with inferior strength, what else could she do?

She could only force out a smile uglier than a cry: "Not forced, not forced at all."

Feng Aotian glanced at her indifferently.

"It's best if it's so!"

"Someone will arrange your position shortly."

As his voice fell, he had no desire to stay any longer.

With his hands behind his back, he walked away slowly with Phoenix Yingtian.

After walking a distance, a warning voice came.

"When you come to my Phoenix Feather Sect, if you're a dragon, you must coil; if you're a tiger, you must crouch."

"If I find out that you two dare to play any tricks, remember to be more discerning in your next life."

"People! You can be foolish, you can be stupid, but at least you must know who you can provoke and who you cannot."

The threatening warning caused the faces of Child of Ultimate Bliss and Extinction Supreme in the room to change.

Especially the latter, her body went limp, and she collapsed directly to the ground.

As if her backbone had been removed.

For a moment, the scene was strangely quiet.

After a long time!

Child of Ultimate Bliss, who had recovered, looked at Extinction Supreme, who had sat up, and pouted, saying, "I thought some people had such strong backbone?"

"Is this what you meant by, 'rather die, rather have my soul scattered, than do humble and lowly work'?"

"It seems that a Sweeping Old Woman is not necessarily much nobler than me, a Burning Fire Child, right?"

Upon hearing this, Extinction Supreme, who had just recovered a bit, immediately showed a deep look of embarrassment.

She wished she could find a hole in the ground and burrow into it on the spot.

One moment she was so resolute, the next, she was slapped in the face.

However, very quickly!

Extinction Supreme became angry.

"You ungrateful Child of Ultimate Bliss, if I hadn't come to save you, would I have ended up in this situation?"

"And you, not only do you not say a word of thanks, but you turn around and mock this old woman."

"Every word is like a steel needle, piercing into this old woman's lungs."

"What, do you have to see me dead to be satisfied?"

Now, it was Child of Ultimate Bliss's turn to look embarrassed.

In a sense, Extinction Supreme had indeed fallen to this point because of him.

For a moment, the scene fell into a strange silence.

Neither of them spoke.

The air was filled with awkwardness and gloom.

Both of them had truly fallen from the clouds into the mud.

They saw no hope of turning things around.

"Child of Ultimate Bliss, do you think we can escape?"

Finally, Extinction Supreme spoke, her eyes dim with unwillingness.

"I don't know!"

Child of Ultimate Bliss shook his head, but he was clearly in a better state of mind than Extinction Supreme.

"But I know that there's hope only if you're alive. If you die, then truly nothing will be left!"

From this day forward, within the Phoenix Feather Sect, there was one more Burning Fire Child and one more Sweeping Old Woman.

Their existence could be considered a unique sight within the Phoenix Feather Sect.
