Chapter 1643  Six in Total

"What is the Monarch's bloodline, huh?" The Primal Monarch looked at Yuan with a profound smile on his face.

After a moment of silence, he responded with a casual shrug, "No clue."

"Huh?" Yuan's face became dumbfounded.

"I am the first of my kind, and it has been that way since the beginning of time. I do not know why I was born or my purpose. I merely exist."

The Primordial Phoenix stared at the Primal Monarch with a pondering expression. As he had claimed, he had existed since the beginning of time before any other race was born. In fact, there are speculations that he had been created alongside the Primal Expanse itself, an ancient being intertwined with the very fabric of the world.

No one truly knows the full extent of the Primal Monarch's power, as he has never revealed it. Throughout the ages, he has remained detached from worldly affairs, rarely interacting with its residents or intervening in their matters. He was a silent ruler, observing the world from a position so high that others could hardly comprehend it—his presence akin to that of a god.

He also possessed an unrivaled ability that allowed him to command all bloodlines as if they were his servants, even those of the so-called purest and most powerful bloodlines.

Due to his terrifying abilities, few dared to challenge him, allowing him to remain at the peak of the world since the beginning of time.

"You never questioned it or tried to find an answer?" Yuan asked, his curiosity piqued.

The Primal Monarch remained silent for a moment before shaking his head.

"I was curious during my earliest years," he admitted, "but once I realized that knowledge wouldn't change anything, I have since stopped caring about it."

'Just what is so special about this human for the Primal Monarch to be so attached to him?' The Primordial Phoenix wondered inwardly.

The Primal Monarch was a godlike existence, one so far beyond the reach of most that even speaking to him seemed unimaginable. Yet, somehow, a mere human had managed to pique his interest enough to not only be adopted as his own but also be granted his immense powers. It was simply incomprehensible even for someone as experienced and knowledgeable as the Primordial Phoenix.

Sometime later, after their conversation ended, the Primordial Phoenix opened a rift, leading Yuan to the Eternal Phoenix Domain's primary residence, where most of the phoenixes dwelled. "There will be someone to assist you with your Chaotic Heart." The Primordial Phoenix said to him after opening the rift.

"You're not coming?"

"I am going to examine her curse a little more."

"I understand."

The moment Yuan emerged from the rift, he was immediately greeted by a familiar face—the young lady who was the first to approach him. And before them, multiple islands floated majestically in the sky, each one occupied by a powerful phoenix, their fiery auras radiating through the air.

"We meet again. I was given instructions by my mother to assist you." "Your mother…? You're also the Primordial Phoenix's daughter?" Yuan asked.

She nodded, "I am the youngest. You can call me Feng Yao."

"Nice to meet you. By the way, how many siblings do you have?" "I have five siblings, but only three of them still exist in the Primal Expanse. The last two drifted into the other world, one of them being the eldest, whom you brought back."

"So there are six of you in total, huh? Are you all Primordial Phoenixes?" "Of course not. The Primordial Phoenix bloodline is the purest and highest-grade Phoenix bloodline. Besides the eldest, we all have a different bloodline. However, while our bloodline isn't as pure as the eldest, we're still at the top of our bloodline."

'So Feng Feng is a Primordial Phoenix like her mother? But her character status shows a different bloodline. Is this also due to the curse?'

Yuan recalled that Xiao Hua's character status changed when she released her seal, so Feng Yuxiang might be in a similar situation.

"Anyways, enough about me. What's your relationship with Eldest Sister?" Feng Yao stared at him with glowing eyes that were filled with curiosity.

"We're traveling companions," Yuan said with a smile, purposefully avoiding the fact that they were in a master-servant relationship.

'They'd probably skin me alive if they find out about our real relationship…' Yuan could imagine the Primordial Phoenix's fury if she found out, sending shivers throughout his body.

"How long have you known the eldest?" Feng Yao continued asking as they walked to their destination.

"We've only known each other for a few years."

"Huh? That little time? You're practically strangers!"

Yuan looked at her with raised eyebrows, but he refrained from commenting on her logic.

"What was she like when she still lived in the Primal Expanse?" Yuan suddenly asked.

Feng Yao shrugged and said, "I was born long after she was gone, so I don't have the slightest clue. However, the others might know. You can try asking them later."

"I'll just ask the Primordial Phoenix later," he said.

"...You're really something, you know?" Feng Yao suddenly sighed.

"What do you mean?"

"Despite being her daughter, I rarely see my mother, let alone speak with her," Feng Yao remarked with a hint of bitterness. "I think you've spent more time with her than I have in my entire life so far."

"Seriously? Even though you all live in the same territory?"

"What do you know? Mother spends most of her time inside her own world."

"Doing what? Increase her cultivation, which could already rival even the strongest cultivators in my world?"

"No, she spends most of her time conceiving another child. It takes hundreds of millions of years for someone at her level to conceive a single child, after all. This doesn't include the time it takes her to absorb enough Chaotic Essence to begin the process, either."

Yuan was left speechless by this revelation.

'Hundreds of millions of years for a single child? I suppose it would disrupt the balance of the world if such a powerful being could conceive too quickly,' Yuan thought to himself.

The stronger the being, the more time is required to conceive, a principle that applies even to humans.

'Compared to the Primordial Phoenix, Yingying's one thousand years is almost laughably short…'

"Alright, we're here." Feng Yao said out loud once they reached their destination.
