The Ancient Rare Phoenix: Colourful Flames - Chapter 9
When Hou returned home, he was panting heavily due to running. He went to his bed and fell asleep. Mother Bing walked into the room and smiled watching him asleep soundlessly.
Next day Hou just stayed at his courtyard, sat silently and watching the skies. Mother Bing noticed and approached behind him. She curiously asked.
” Hou’er, aren’t going to the library today? ”
Hou unconsciously blurted before halt his words after realising what he was gonna say to mother Bing.
” Nope, Shitty gee —”
He blinked innocently at mother Bing then appearing slight hurt and said.
” Yesterday I learned a lot of stuffs from grandpa Li. But I cannot start cultivating before my first awakening ceremony, so I’ve decided not to go the Library till then. ”
Mother Bing helplessly looked at her son listening at his shameless lies however she decide to not abother bout it.
” Hou’er, Miss Nina was here to see you yesterday but your grandpa Zong told her how you were unable to leave however your grandpa promised her to send you to meet her once you are free to leave outside.”
Hou looked at mother Bing confusedly and asked.
” But mom, who is this Miss Nina? ”
Mother Bing started giggled and looked at him amusingly.
” She’s the daughter of Jia Clan head and also known for being a beauty in Red Mist City. You’ve already met her. She was the girl who you describe as weird. You should go meet her once but behave properly. If you say words like last time then you should forget about leaving this courtyard. ”
As if remembering who she was, Hou started to smile slyly and agreed to meet her.
” Ok mom, I’ll see her so when should I go? ”
Mother Bing thought for sec then reminded of her father’s words so she sighed and said.
” Since you’re free and only just idling here, you should go meet her now. ”
Hou surprising just nodded his head and walked slowly toward exit. Mother Bing just watch his back slowly disappearing.
On the way hou found a clan discipline to send his message to Miss Nina saying he’ll wait her at the Wind Cloud tavern. Then directly headed toward the Wind Cloud Tavern.
The bustling streets were full of life, the sellers were shouting loudly trying to sell their goods, the buyers were trying to lower prices, the Merchants and mercenaries were dragging caged-beasts, A few low-ranked soldiers were patrolling around the city all the time.
At the very end of the quiet alley was the most tallest tower located in the city. You can see this tower from almost every corner in the city. This was the Wind Cloud tavern, most famous and extremely expensive to dine in the city. People were entering in and out but no noise could pass inside.
Hou entered the tavern and directly went to the 5th floor where most the clan young masters and misses usually gathered around. He seat at the corner and watched around the room to see any familiar faces while waiting for Miss Nina. Sadly no familiar faces were there because just before he entered, all those familiar faces ran below the 4th floor.
After getting bored, Hou started to look around one more time then suddenly he saw someone who look too sissy seating alone at the center of room. He walked up to sissy and directly sat opposite. He grinned at sissy amusingly and greeted.
” Hello big sis, Can you keep me accompany till my big sis comes here? ”
Sissy looked coldly at him and said.
” Little brat, I’m not big sis and get the fk out of here before I slap you. ”
Turning completely deaf, Hou looked at sissy and shockingly said.
” So you’re one of those she-male? Should I call you big-bro-sis? ”
Sissy absurdly stood up and punch with his fist while cursing at him.
” WTF you little bastard, let’s see how insult me again. ”
Just as his fist near Hou, someone grabbed sissy’s fist an inch before Hou’s mocking face. A teen girl around 17-18 years looked coldly at sissy then raised her right leg to kick on sissy’s face. Sissy flew a meter in the air before dropping with a bang and started coughing blood.
Sissy maliciously looked at the Teen girl however suddenly he got stepped by a tiny feet on his face. After getting couples of the heavy stomping, he fainted out.
Hou looked confusingly at the teen girl who seemed familiar yet not, then he politely express his gratitude. However he started to move extremely fast toward the exit.
Just as his feet almost touch the exit, the teen-girl shouted his name loud enough to resonate inside the room.
” Little Stalker Hou, stop right there!”
He looked back and called out her name to confirm.
” Miss Nina? ”
Miss Nina pouting nodded her head and started moving toward the corner which Hou previously was seated.
Hou helplessly sat opposite Miss Nina and trying to think where he met her. After a min he couldn’t so he decided to ask honestly.
” Miss Nina, Have we met before? ”
Miss Nina couldn’t hold back and hit mercilessly on his head till a little bump started to appear. She stopped only once she saw him almost on the verge of crying. She coldly said.
” Little stalker hou, Do you remember me now? ”
Hou stared miss Nina while wiping his eyes and thinking even if i don’t remember but after this, I will surely remember you for my sweet revenge. Suddenly he thought of something, he started smile slyly and sincerely said.
” Yes Big sis Nina, How can I even forget bout you? ”
” eh I knew it. anyway let’s hurry to the Crimson Auction House then we’ll talk there. ”
After saying it, miss Nina carried Hou on her bosom and started running toward
the Crimson Auction House.

Meanwhile sissy stood up from the ground. After carefully looking around, he didn’t see the little brat nor the teen girl so he started to walk toward the 7th floor while rubbing just face.
Once sissy entered inside the 7th floor, he saw two old-men sitting next to each other at the corner and walked towards them.
One of them was red-haired with a spiky messy hair wearing red flame emblem on his cloth, he was from Red Fire Sect, Elder Mo, Peak Stage Earth Origin Realm while other was white-black mixed haired wearing pill emblem with 3 pills marking on it who was Alchemist, High Rank 3 Origin Grade Alchemist, Elder Mu.
Sissy dropped on the ground and hesitantly bowed at Elder Mo without saying anything. Seeing how he was injured, Elder MO asked.
” Discipline Su, what happen? ”
” Elder Mo, you need to seek justice for me. I was first insulted by a little brat. It was obviously that brat who provoked me time to time. When I tried to teach him a lesson but random teen girl came and blocked me, heavily kicking me and beating with that little brat. ”
Discipline Su shuddered when he started to remember that kick, However when he thought bout little brat, he grind his teeth in anger.
Seeing Su looking fearfully and angry at the same time, Elder Mo could only helplessly sigh.
Elder Mu looked interestingly at Su before throwing him a pill.
Su grabbed it unconsciously, when he realised it was Low Rank 2 Origin Grade Rejuvenate Pill he ate it then he delightedly thanked to Elder Mu.
Elder Mo peek at Elder Mu then look at Su and indifferently said.
” Discipline Su, We came here in a mission, we cannot do anything else before completely acquiring it. After the Auction we will get them so you can vent your anger however you like. ”
