Chapter 1608: The Zenith of the Holy Race

eals Dao Zun left on me, preventing me from achieving enlightenment and entering the realm of human-dao convergence.And now, my own cultivation level is about to reach the ninth level of Daotai realm....As for Wu Yang's reaction, the young man simply ignored him and said to Zuo Qiuzi again: "The old man told me to keep a low profile, so this time I came without notifying you in advance. You can't blame ignorance."

"You must be Zuo Qiuzi, the sect master of Yaodaozong, right"

"Yes, I am Zuo Qiuzi!"

Zuoqiuzi nodded repeatedly and continued smiling, "Right, I haven't asked yet, what is your honourable name"

This statement left the audience stunned once again!

To welcome this man, the Yaodao sect struck ten times on the bell. Zuochu Zi was clearly very respectful towards this young man, even bringing a large number of disciples to greet him. However, he didn't even know the other party's name.

The young man raised his head and answered in a voice that was incredibly loud, "Firecloud!"

Zuoqiuzi bowed his hands and said, "It turns out to be Daoist Huoyun. I've long admired your name. Please come in, please come in!"

After he finished speaking, Zuoqiu turned and personally led the way ahead.

And this young man named Huoyun, along with nine demon races including Yuanyang, swaggered behind, taking big strides towards the Yao Dao Sect.

With their departure, the many demon clans watching also dispersed one after another, beginning to discuss what exactly this fire cloud was!

……

"Fire clouds!"

Inside Zi Zhu's residence, Jiang Yun softly muttered the name, shaking her head with a smile and saying: "You've been by my side for so long, you haven't learned anything else, but you've learned how to name things. This name... it's a bit unpleasant!"

Although Zizhu did not go to Yaodaozong's sect, he naturally saw countless demon clan figures going there.

Hearing Ginger Cloud’s inexplicable words at this moment, she couldn’t help but ask: “Your old friend, is his name Fire Cloud Why have I never heard of such a person among the demon race Is he really from the Holy Race”

Jiang Yun smiled and said, "This name, I've never heard it before either. It must be that he chose it himself."

As for his current identity, to be honest, I'm not too sure either. All I know is that he was taken back to the Sacred Clan by Wu Yang and five other Dao Demons back then. It seems like he's still quite valued there.

Although Zizhu still didn't know the origins of Huoyun, she immediately closed her mouth after hearing this.

The celestial demons were beings she could only look up to, and this Fire Cloud being able to be taken away personally by five celestial demons was enough to show just how high their status was. She didn't dare to ask any further questions.

Though the Saint Clan is undoubtedly the most powerful force within the Demon Clan in this world, few truly know this.

This is also why the former Elder of the Yaodao Sect refused to reveal the origin of the Firecloud.

Jiang Yun didn't continue, instead smiling and falling into thought.

Of course, this arrogant fire cloud is the gluttonous firebird born in the Dao Prison!

Since he broke up with Jiang Yun and was brought back to the Holy Race by Wu Yang and others, over ten years have passed, and Jiang Yun has never seen him again.

I really didn't expect to see the Firebird here at the Yaodao Sect.

Not only has he already cultivated into a human form, but his bearing and demeanor also speak volumes. The Holy Clan treats him with utmost importance, even to the point of being very coddled towards him.

Although seeing Huoniao again surprised Jiangyun, looking at Huoniao's current state finally gave him peace of mind. At least, during the time he was with him, Huoniao had become much stronger.

Therefore, Jiangyun didn't even want to recognize the Firebird.

……

Over the next two days, throughout the entire Yaodao Sect, whether it was inner disciples or other demon clans, the topic of conversation naturally revolved around this Fire Cloud.

Even Blood Robe and Zuo Qiuzi were not exempt.

Inside the main hall of Yao Dao Zong, Xue Pao and Zuo Qiu Zi sat opposite each other.

There was no chessboard in front of them anymore, it was obvious they had long lost interest in playing.

Zuoqiu Zi spoke first, "Since he has five Daoist demons from Wu Yang serving as his personal guards, it seems that Huo Yun's identity is already certain. The only question is, what is his background"

The blood-robed man smiled faintly: "Although I don't know the details of his origins, I at least know that he must be connected to Jiang Yun."

Leftqiuzi asked in puzzlement, "Why do you say so"

"Back then, Dan Daozi offered a Nine Phoenix Burning Fire Pill as compensation when seeking help with alchemy. This pill is said to be related to Fengzu, one of the five ancestors of the Sacred Clan!"

Later, the one who helped Dan Daozi refine the pills was Jiang Yun, and this Nine Phoenix Burning Fire Pill naturally fell into Jiang Yun's hands.

"This fire cloud, its true form is a fire bird. It and the Phoenix Ancestor belong to the same kind."

"Especially now, you might not feel it, but I can sense a terrifying aura of fire on him. It must belong to the Phoenix Ancestor."

This is enough to show that he has already become the heir apparent of Phoenix Ancestor.

Then it's not hard to guess, he must have taken the Nine Phoenix Burning Fire Pill and completed his trial in the Holy Clan's Holy Lake, undergoing a rebirth.

"Besides, his name also carries the character 'yun,' so I think he might have possibly been with Jiang Yun back then."

"Ouch!"

Zuoqiuzi couldn't help but gasp and said, "If what you say is true, then this fire cloud must unconditionally support Jiangyun, which means the Holy Race will definitely stand on Jiangyun's side."

"In that case, it would be really difficult for Dao Zun to deal with Jiang Yun!"

Xue Pao glanced at Zuo Qiu Zi and said, "How is it, by now, have you still not made up your mind about how to treat Jiang Yun"

Zuoqiuzi's face darkened. "Of course I want to stand on Jiang Yun's side, but as you know, I have billions of demon tribes behind me. If this angers Daozun, the consequences..." He sighed helplessly.

The Blood Robe naturally understood Zuoqiuzi's difficulties, and even more so knew the great price Zuoqiuzi had paid to become the suzerain of this Demon Dao Sect.

"Rest assured, even if you support Jiang Yun, unless the Dao Zun truly tears his face with the Sacred Clan completely, he wouldn't vent his anger on you or the entire Yao Dao Zong."

After all, the true purpose of the Yaodao Sect is something outsiders have no knowledge of!

Zuoqiuzi nodded and said, “I hope so. But it's not certain that Jiangyun will appear at our Yao Daozong. So there’s no need to worry about it for now.”

But Xuedao shook his head. "I do hope he will come."

Zuoqiuzi asked again, puzzled: "Why"

If he comes, I can at least give him these things. Besides, considering Ginger Cloud's current importance, there are some things that it's time to tell him as well.

Hearing this, Zuoqiu's face involuntarily changed slightly. "The Netherworld..."

Before Leftqiuzi could finish his words, Xuepao suddenly glared and rudely interrupted, "Silence!"

Zuo Qiu Zi also listened obediently, closing his mouth and a wry smile appeared on his face as he changed the subject: "However, I don't understand, if that Huoyun is truly recognized as the heir to Fengzu, then with his status, he shouldn't be interested in my matchmaking!"

If the Saint Clan is the ultimate existence among the Demon Clans, then Phoenix Ancestor is the ultimate existence among the Saint Clan.

Although Huo Yun is merely an heir, his status is already incomparably lofty.

As Zuoqiuzi said, even if Huoyun had an interest in Zuoqiuzi's daughter, the Saint Clan would absolutely not agree.

Blood Robe pondered, "I don't know either. Perhaps they have other things to attend to, or maybe the Holy Clan intentionally wants to form an alliance with you and sent Firecloud."

Zuoqiuzi smiled bitterly and shook his head. "If it were the latter, that would be wonderful!"

The two fell silent, each lost in their own thoughts. After a long while, Xue Pao suddenly spoke again. "Zuo Qiu Zi, have you ever considered making Jiang Yun your son-in-law"
