She Shocks The Whole World After Retirement by Emperor's Song

1145 High Hopes

Yu Huang was shocked when she heard Linyuan’s name.

Ji Linyuan happened to have awakened the Divine Feather Phoenix Beast Form and lived in Cang Lang Continent.

Other than her Eldest Senior Brother, there was probably no other man in the world who fit all these requirements.

However, for the time being, Yu Huang didn’t know how close Prime Emperor Linfeng was to her Eldest Senior

Brother or if the two of them were enemies or friends.

Therefore, when she heard the name ‘Linyuan’, the expression on her face didn’t change at all and she remained

calm.

After raising her head and meeting Prime Emperor Linfeng’s gaze, Yu Huang said guiltily, “I’m sorry for reminding

you of the sad past again.”

Prime Emperor Linfeng waved his hand and said, “Lin Yuan’s disappearance is a sore spot that I can’t move on

from. How can I recall something that I’ve never let go of? Yu Huang, you don’t have to feel sorry for this.”

Nodding her head, Yu Huang continued, “In our hometown, every Beast Tamer will leave a soul lamp in their home.

This way, even if someone is injured or missing, as long as the soul lamp is still lit, his family and friends will know if

he’s still alive. Could it be that there’s no such thing in the Cang Lang Continent?”

“There are, but my brother’s situation was special.”

Sheng Xiao asked, “What’s so special about your brother’s situation?”

Prime Emperor Linfeng sighed and said, “The Vermillion Bird Clan is the same as the Divine Feather Phoenix Clan.

We are both oviparous. Our clansmen can only give birth to a real human child by giving birth to a sparrow egg and

letting the father hatch it for a year. During the incubation process, we often encounter mishaps. This is also the

reason the Vermillion Bird Clan has few people.”

“When my little brother was born, the eggshell was actually covered in fiery red phoenix patterns. When the elders

of the clan saw that egg, they all thought that my little brother would be the clansman most likely to awaken the

Divine Feather Phoenix beast form for the first time in the past ten thousand years. In order to protect this egg, my

father even temporarily stepped down from his position as a clansman and handed the power to the elders. He

went into seclusion for an entire year and personally hatched my little brother. My little brother was a child born

with everyone’s high expectations.”

Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao were stunned.

Oviparous clan.

So Eldest Senior Brother was a child who had emerged from an eggshell.

Although they had long known that there were all kinds of strange things in the three thousand worlds and that

there were indeed demon beast clans in the world, they had only heard of them.

Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao found it marvelous that they actually had an acquaintance who had emerged from an

eggshell.

When Yu Huang came back to her senses, she realized that Sheng Xiao’s gaze had landed on her stomach.

She was speechless.

What? Did Brother Xiao think that she would be pregnant with an egg in the future?

Yu Huang glared at Sheng Xiao warningly.

Sheng Xiao quickly looked away and lowered his eyes without saying anything.

He was probably looking forward to her giving birth to an egg and letting him personally experience incubating an

egg.

She couldn’t tell that this bastard was quite pervy.

After hearing Prime Emperor Linfeng’s description, Yu Huang asked again, “What has this got to do with your

brother not having a soul lamp?”

“Sigh.” Prime Emperor Linfeng sighed before saying anything.

Prime Emperor Linfeng raised his head and his gaze landed on the window. His thoughts instantly traveled back to

more than fifty years ago.

He slowly said, “At that time, the entire clan placed their hopes on Linyuan. They hoped that he would grow up

quickly and awaken a Divine Feather Phoenix beast form to become a powerhouse so that he could lead the

Vermillion Bird Clan to rise again and become a top faction on the Cang Lang Continent.”

“In those years, the news of the Vermillion Bird Clan giving birth to a child with the bloodline of the Divine Feather

Phoenix spread throughout the entire Central Continent. The attention of everyone in Central Continent was on

Linyuan. That was the time when the Vermillion Bird Clan received the most attention.”

Yu Huang frowned when she heard this.

A child that the entire Central Continent had high hopes for and whose growth they were looking forward to carried

too much of a burden.

If he could reach the level everyone expected, so be it.

If he couldn’t…

Yu Huang knew the feeling of falling from the peak too well.

Yu Huang heard Prime Emperor Linfeng say again, “Finally, Lin Yuan turned 12 years old. That year, Lin Yuan

participated in the Beast Tamer Awakening Ceremony held in the clan for the first time. That day, almost all the

major factions in the Central Continent sent people to watch. They wanted to witness the birth of the Divine Feather

Phoenix’s beast form with their own eyes. Even Madam Brulee personally came to watch.”

Just like the Holy Spirit Continent, the children of the Cang Lang Continent had to participate in the Beast Tamer

Awakening Ceremony when they reached the age of 12.

“But…” Prime Emperor Linfeng said sadly,” Lin Yuan participated in the awakening ceremony for five consecutive

years, but he never succeeded in awakening his beast form. You have to know that most Beast Tamers awaken

their beast form within the three years from the age of 12 to 15. Some people will awaken their beast form before

the age of 17. However, Lin Yuan participated in the beast awakening ceremony for five consecutive years without

ever awakening his beast form. He also gradually turned from a genius of the Vermillion Bird Clan to a failure and

became a hot topic of discussion in the Central Continent. ”

Upon hearing this, Yu Huang only felt that it was ironic, but she didn’t interrupt Prime Emperor Linfeng’s narration.

“After that, Linyuan refused to participate in a beast awakening ceremony ever again. After all, every time he

participated, he would be mocked by the entire clan and even all the factions in the Central Continent. However, my

father refused to accept that the child he was most proud of was actually a failure who couldn’t even awaken his

beast form, so he forced Linyuan to participate in his sixth beast awakening ceremony.”

Thinking of this, Prime Emperor Linfeng couldn’t help but reveal a pained expression.

He said, “My father was hoping that Linyuan would achieve success, but who knew how pained Linyuan must have

felt? Perhaps it was because he had too much pressure and frustration in his heart, but when he turned 18 years

old, he actually did something that everyone in the Central Continent found unbelievable.”

Yu Huang asked, “What did he do?”

Prime Emperor Linfeng rubbed his temples with his hand and revealed a pained expression as he said, “He left the

Vermillion Bird Clan and went to Ice River City to study. He was determined to become an aerospace scientist.”

Yu Huang was impressed.

Her senior brother had quite a feisty personality when he was young.

“But his actions angered my father. My father thought that going to the Science and Technology Academy to study

was cowardly and was a sign that Linyuan was avoiding reality, as well as his family responsibilities. In a fit of anger,

my father summoned the entire clan to the ancestral hall and publicly announced that he would sever his

relationship with Linyuan. He also decided to remove Linyuan from the Vermillion Bird genealogy and shatter the

soul lamp he left in the ancestral hall in public…”

“This is also why we still can’t confirm his situation after he disappeared for so many years.”

After hearing the whole story, Yu Huang didn’t say anything, but a mocking look appeared in the depths of her eyes.

Prime Emperor Linfeng was perceptive and immediately sensed Yu Huang’s abnormal emotions.

As Prime Emperor Linfeng stared at Yu Huang’s beautiful face, he couldn’t help but ask, “Yu Huang, you also think

that my father’s actions were too extreme, right? I admit that he was indeed a little extreme and it was wrong.

However, he had high hopes for his son. It’s just that his expectations for Linyuan were too high.”
