A genuine smile appeared on the huge parrot’s face as it spoke in a gentle voice.
“My master has instructed me to give these two storage rings to you!”
An Lin accepted the storage rings before refining them and rummaging through the contents.
In the first storage ring, there were three white fruits, all of which were glowing with dazzling light.
These were the seventh-level Sun Tree Immortal Fruits, which were fifth-grade immortal fruits by the name of Eternal Sun Fruits. They could increase the purity of the consumer’s flame powers, enhance one’s life energy, and quickly restore blood and energy.
“Hehe, Bai Xingge isn’t so bad after all. I thought that he had just run off after losing the bet.”
An Lin chuckled before turning to the second storage ring.
He immediately faltered upon seeing the contents of this storage ring.
There was only one item in the storage ring, which was a semi-transparent rainbow fruit, the Sun Fruit of the ninth level on the Sun Tree—the Nine Flame True Yang Fruit!
This was a first-grade immortal fruit!
There was also an accompanying note.
[Great Sparrow Man, I know you’re not a new Dao Integration Stage mythological beast, but that doesn’t matter. I’ve still decided to give this immortal fruit to you. I will forgive you because of your courage, and the reasons you cannot reveal! I hope I can meet the real you next time.
[Yi Li]
An Lin: “…”
An Lin felt like he had reached the pinnacle of his life. He had received the approval of even the sun. This was probably unprecedented in history…
“Sigh…”
He heaved a light sigh before putting away the two storage rings into his own. He then continued on his way.
Perhaps he would be able to do something for the two of them to repay them for they had done for him.
However, his top priority now was to go back and earn more money.
As a man, he should place his career above everything else. A man only had the right to talk when he had money and power. Only then, could he continue onward to forge a happy life.
An Lin returned the same way that he had come, and he encountered many vermilion birds on the way.
However, to his surprise, none of them raised their proud heads when they walked past him. Instead, they were all looking at him with curiosity and reverence.
What had happened?
An Lin was completely perplexed, but he couldn’t be bothered asking, and he traveled back down to the sixth level in a transparent bubble.
He had reaped many rewards on this trip to the Southern Heavenly Wing Nation. Not only had he successfully completed his mission, but he had also earned some money, a few fruits, and the core inheritances of five mythological beasts.
He had obtained the Yang God cultivation method as well as the accompanying Flame Merging Technique, which could allow him to create a vast combination of flames.
Now, he was only missing a Yin God cultivation method as well as the metal type divine weapon origin energy cultivation method.
However, this was not something that he could obtain just by worrying about it. He would have to bide his time and wait for opportunities to arise.
After arriving at the sixth level, An Lin used the special beast pet presence connection to locate Xue Zhantian.
Xue Zhantian was extremely excited. “Master! Your name is known by everyone under the heavens now! Many people are extremely reverent toward you after hearing about your performance at the arena! There were even people who suggested that a statue of you should be erected to stand alongside the War Gods, but that was turned down.”
An Lin didn’t really care about all that. “It doesn’t really matter to me. Let the name of Lin An be forever immortalized in legends. All of his victories and glory have nothing to do with me.”
“Master is so profound!” Xue Zhantian was shocked.
He felt like there was something slightly amiss. Master was a serial flexer, so shouldn’t he be revealing the truth about his identity to everyone for one final flex?
“Master, did you meet the guardian of the Sun Tree? Was she beautiful? Did your heart skip a beat? Did you kiss her?” Xue Zhantian asked with round, curious eyes.
An Lin shuddered upon hearing this. This was not an experience he wanted to remember.
Did his heart skip a beat? His heart almost stopped beating altogether!
How could he be attracted to the sun?
“I did kiss her. The guardian of the Sun Tree is beautiful enough to blind you. She is devastatingly beautiful, like the most flawless celestial maiden… You’ll get to see her again someday anyway. Perhaps you can kiss her too,” An Lin replied with an eerie fake smile.
Xue Zhantian instantly recoiled in fear at the sight of An Lin’s expression. “I’ll leave such a beautiful woman for Master!”
“Oh, right, where is our gold-tier tour guide, yellow cow?” An Lin asked.
“He’s way too busy promoting himself at the moment. As a tour guide that had once had Fist God Lin An as a client, he was telling everyone about how Lin An had been extremely satisfied with his service, and his popularity has risen significantly. He’s steadily becoming the most popular tour guide on the entire Sun Tree,” Xue Zhantian explained.
An Lin rolled his eyes. “This is surely an opportunistic cow.”
“This is a commonplace phenomenon. When one person rises to prominence, everyone else around them is also elevated by association.” Xue Zhantian snuggled into An Lin’s chest before pointing a wing at the sky in the distance. “Master, when are we going to be able to stamp the heavens under our feet?”
“When the heavens appear beneath our feet,” An Lin replied.
Thus, the two of them walked along and attracted countless eyeballs.
An Lin’s appearance was no longer a secret, and many proud birds were turning to look at this legendary arena warrior with reverence in their eyes.
They explored all six levels of the Sun Tree, thereby concluding their Sun Tree journey.
“Master, do we go back now?” Xue Zhantian asked.
“There’s no rush. Let’s wander around at some of the more chaotic places in the Southern Heavenly Wing Nation first,” An Lin replied.
Half a month later, a legend began to circulate in the Southern Heavenly Wing Nation.
There was an extremely powerful being who liked to pose as a noob before hunting birds that tried to rob him. There had already been several hundred birds that had perished by his hands, and all of them met extremely gruesome ends, with most of them having their bodies completely blown into oblivion.
Many birds were extremely fearful of this mysterious powerful being.
Many of the robber birds had refrained from committing any more robberies in fear that they would fall victim to this powerful being next.
Thus, the state of disarray that the public security of the Southern Heavenly Wing Nation had been in was significantly improved by this peculiar powerful being, for which many birds were extremely grateful.
After about half a month of reverse robbery and murder, business gradually slowed down as word of their exploits spread. In the end, they reluctantly left as their profits continued to dwindle.
During this half a month, they had earned over ten million spirit stones as well as all types of spirit fruits, spirit tools, materials, and the bodies of bird tribe powerful beings that were good for tool refinement and pill refinement.
In other words, they had made a massive haul!
“We can finally return home in triumph!” An elated smile appeared on An Lin’s face.
“Master, I’m on the verge of throwing up from eating all those spirit fruits in the past half a month! Too much of one thing is not good. I want to eat immortal fruits instead!” Xue Zhantian said as he nibbled on a spirit fruit.
An Lin snapped as he rolled his eyes at Xue Zhantian. “Be happy with what you have!”
During these past few days, he had given many spirit fruits to Xue Zhantian for consumption, and Xue Zhantian had finally stabilized his cultivation base at the Return to Void Initial Stage. If this were someone else, they definitely wouldn’t be willing to give so many spirit fruits to their beast pet. However, Filthy Rich An didn’t care.
“I’m coming back, Xiaolan.”
An Lin looked toward the direction of the Heavenly Court with anticipation in his heart.
