Chapter 1942: Ruling Over the Vermilion Bird Tribe

An Lin sighed with emotion.

He was now essentially the ruler of the arrogant Vermilion Bird Tribe.

Little Xiaolan was now the Great Empress of the Vermilion Birds.

"The new Vermilion Bird Empire conference commences now. Hurry up and raise any issues you have." An Lin held onto Little Xiaolan as yawned.

Never would An Lin have thought that he would become the stand-in emperor in the Vermilion Bird Tribe. However, he was not excited in the slightest.

There was no fun in talking to a bunch of birds!

And he had to have Little Xiaolan with him for this stupid conference! What difference did it make if a little baby who couldn't even speak was present during the conference or not? He tried to raise these points, but all of the Vermilion Bird Tribe officials expressed the unanimous opinion that the conference would be incomplete if Great Empress Vermilion Bird was not present.

As such, An Lin had no choice but to carry Little Xiaolan in his arms while listening to the Vermilion Bird Tribe higher-ups chirp about a range of things.

"The reconstruction and repair of the Immortal Vermilion Star is estimated to take a hundred years and will require three billion spirit stones. We have decided to give the job to the number one construction sect in the Vermilion Bird Tribe, the Nan Mu Sect. What does the Great Empress Vermilion Bird think of this?" a Vermilion Bird with very large eyes asked.

Little Xiaolan blinked. "Waah?"

An Lin nodded expressionlessly. "Approved."

"Thank you, Great Empress Vermilion Bird!" The Vermilion Bird with big eyes was moved to the point of tears.

"Great Empress Vermilion Bird's wisdom is truly a blessing for our entire tribe!"

An imposing Vermilion Bird in black armor then strode over with a respectful expression. "I have captured some spies of other races trying to infiltrate our territory. There are three thousand six hundred and twenty-nine of them in total. How should I deal with these spies?"

An Lin waved a hand through the air. "Send them to the mines!"

"Great Empress Vermilion Bird's benevolence is truly a blessing for our entire tribe!" The Vermilion Bird General offered some more words of praise before reluctantly departing.

A chorus of chants immediately rang out.

"Long live Great Empress Vermilion Bird!"

"Long live Great Empress Vermilion Bird!"

An Lin: "…"

Your Great Empress Vermilion Bird is currently drinking breast milk! Is it really necessary to praise her in such a shameless manner?

Soon, a Vermilion Bird with golden feathers strode over.

"Revered Great Empress Vermilion Bird, your treasure vault has been severely damaged during the course of the prior battle. Will you move it elsewhere or repair the existing vault?" the golden Vermilion Bird asked.

An Lin was about to fall asleep, but he was instantly jerked awake upon hearing this.

"Treasure vault? The Vermilion Bird had a treasure vault?"

"Of course, Great Empress Vermilion Bird owns a huge treasure vault, which can only be opened using the power of the Holy Berth. A new Great Empress has been crowned, so this treasure vault now belongs to her!"

The golden Vermilion Bird bowed respectfully.

Everyone knew about this, but none of them wanted to take those treasures for themselves. Taking the treasures of someone with a perfect bloodline would result in the collapse of their dao hearts.

Furthermore, they didn't have the ability to open the treasure vault anyway.

"I've decided to move it. After this conference, I will be taking the Great Empress to the treasure vault. I'll have to trouble you to lead the way there," An Lin responded with a stern expression.

Yes, he was going to move Great Empress Vermilion Bird's treasures.

As for where he was going to move it? That was obvious; he was going to move all of it into his storage ring of course!

Hehehe…

"I'm very honored to be of service to Great Empress Vermilion Bird!"

The golden Vermilion Bird extended a respectful bow before departing.

After that, one Vermilion Bird after another came forward and presented different issues.

Most of them were concerning the cleanup in the aftermath of the battle.

An Lin basically just made decisions based on how he felt.

To his surprise, no one offered any objections or conflicting opinions to his decisions. All of them just praised him for his wisdom and decision-making abilities or talked about how much of an honor it was to serve him…

What the f*ck…

An Lin felt like if he told these Vermilion Birds to eat sh*t, they would do so and yell about how delicious it was!

Perhaps this was the power of the Holy Berth.

It gave An Lin absolute authority over such an arrogant tribe.

One hour later.

The conference was over.

The golden Vermilion Bird led An Lin toward the treasure vault.

Mo Hai also tagged along.

He had successfully made it out of the mines and was now the human ambassador responsible for communication between the human race and the Vermilion Bird Tribe.

Mo Hai didn't even have the words to describe his feelings.

He could barely accept the fact that An Lin and Xu Xiaolan had slain the Vermilion Bird, but Xu Xiaolan had also inherited the Holy Berth? If news of this was to spread to the Tai Chu Continent, it would create a gigantic stir!

His beautiful and adorable sect sister was now the matriarch of their sect. Mo Hai felt like he was dreaming every time that thought occurred to him. What a breathtaking turn of events.

Should he be referring to Xu Xiaolan as a sister or as the Great Empress Vermilion Bird from now?

Mo Hai was caught in a dilemma. He turned toward the unintelligible little girl in An Lin's arms, and his lips twitched. He simply couldn't bring himself to call her matriarch…

What a strange world…

"Brother An Lin, when are we going to return to the Tai Chu Continent?" Mo Hai asked uneasily.

"When the wind rises," An Lin gave a profound response.

Mo Hai almost broke down into tears. "Big Brother An Lin, I don't understand! Please speak in terms that are comprehensible to mere mortals like me!"

An Lin smiled. "After I empty this treasure vault, I'll think of a way to use the Vermilion Bird Tribe's power, then swindle them into jumping onto our ship. After that, we'll meet up with Shangguan Yi, then return to the Azure Dragon Tribe territory so that we can ask Patriarch Azure Dragon to open up the passageway for us again. After all, he was the one who led us here, and if he's not going to buy us a return ticket, I'll beat the crap out of him!"

An Lin explained his plan.

Mo Hai was enlightened.

This was indeed the best course of action.

Soon, a peculiar building appeared before An Lin's eyes.

This was a building that looked like a bird's nest, and it shimmered with colorful light under the sun. It wasn't very big, but it was as beautiful as a bright jewel.

The golden Vermilion Bird led An Lin to a round gate. "This is where Great Empress Vermilion Bird's treasure vault is located. It has been sealed by a restriction set up by the previous Great Empress Vermilion Bird and reinforced by the power of this entire planet. Only the power of the Holy Berth is capable of opening it."

An Lin carefully assessed this gate.

Indeed, this gate was so solid that it struck one with a sense of despair.

He turned toward the little baby in his arms with a smile. "Your time to shine, Little Xiaolan!"
