The Rise Of Purple Phoenix - 43 History of Fire Phoenix Clan
Seeing all his sons are interested in the story, Alder said, “Unlike other bloodline clans, fire phoenix clan had five founders who were brothers”
“five?” Derek asked in confusion.
Normally when a new bloodline is generated, there will only be one user but Alder said there were five users.
“yes, there were 5 brothers. Our ancestors were normal cultivators at the origin stage.
One day when they went hunting in a forest, they’ve heard a weird cry of a beast. They went to investigate it and that was when they found the fire phoenix” Alder said.
“what happened after that?” Lloyd asked.
Alder sighed and said, “When they found the fire phoenix, it was gravely injured.
They felt heavy pressure from the fire phoenix even though they were far away from it.
They couldn’t get any closer as their body felt like it would be crushed by the pressure. Then forth brother had an idea to wait.
The fire phoenix was near its death. They waited to a week and at last the Phoenix released a sharp cry it died.
As they saw that the Phoenix died, they rushed to it. They thought that it could bring them a fortune.
But just as they reached fire phoenix’s body. it suddenly started burning and within a few moments, the entire body was burned to a large pile ash.
They didn’t know what happened but a fortune before their eyes turned to a pile of ash. They looked around to find the source of flame but find anything and they turned around to leave.
Just as they were leaving, the youngest among them heard a chirping of a bird from the ashes. He dived into the ashes to find its source.
Seeing their brother diving into the ash, others were confused. After a few minutes, the youngest brother came back with a small bird in his hands. It was at the size of a child’s hand.
The bird cried and struggled to escape but couldn’t. it was just born and didn’t have any cultivation but it had its prior phoenix’s memory.
It started to interact with the youngest brother to make a deal to release it, in return it promised to give him phoenix bloodline.
As the younger brother agreed, the Phoenix made a small injury to itself and gave its blood to him.
After he obtained and combine with the bloodline, he came to know the potential of the blood. He didn’t release the Phoenix as he promised but took it to his brother and explained about the blood.
After learning about it, the brothers started to extract the blood from the Phoenix till the last drop and divided among themselves” Alder said.
Hearing the story, Lloyd face changed as he felt sad for the fire phoenix. Unlike the ice phoenix’s story, the origin of the ice phoenix bloodline, this was crueler.
“father, what happened to the fire phoenix after that?” Leland asked. He also felt sad about the fire phoenix.
“I don’t know,” Alder said as he shakes his head.
“father, do you know where they found the fire phoenix?” Lloyd asked.
Hearing Lloyd’s question, Alder said, “after they gained fire phoenix bloodline, they created fire phoenix clan around the area where they found the fire phoenix and the location of the fire phoenix was current clan main hall,” Alder said.
Hearing this Lloyd sighed, he thought he could find the fire phoenix’s location from his father but even his father doesn’t know where fire phoenix was.
If fire phoenix was really at the clan, he could have already found but there wasn’t any hidden location to hide a fire phoenix clan.
As Alder saw his sons were in deep thought, he said, “I want all you to keep the story a secret. Nobody must know about it”
“Why?” Derek said in confusion.
“do you think that it was a happy story?” Alder asked seriously.
“this….NO,” Derek said.
“it’s tragic,” Leland said.
“yes, it was tragic and I don’t want others to know about it and bring shame to our clan. Do you all understand?” Alder asked.
“yes,” Lloyd, Derek, and Leland said at the same time.
After the story, they finished their breakfast and just as they finished, a knock was heard.
“come in,” Alder said.
A servant came and bowed and said, “Master, preparation of the tournament is ready”
“ok, you may leave,” Alder said to the servant and he turned to his sons and said, “Go all out and beat the hell out of everyone”
Even though Alder told this to his 3 sons, he mainly looked at Lloyd when he said that.
