" We, Yang's, may have millions of blood in our hands. But we never kill weaklings. And we always keep our promise. Also, Yang never yields to our enemies. " Both the Yang brothers spoke at the same time. Then, both of them laughed together.
Li Lin looked at them and thought, " So, this is how the Yang family taught their younger generation. Truly bold. "
" Little brother, will you go back on your word now?" Captain Yang Chao asked him.
" No, Yang's never goes back on our words." Yang Bojing replied firmly.
Then, they continued reading the document before them.
At that time, Li Lin stood up and said, " Guys, you need to see this."
Then he passed a black cover book to Captain Chao. Its cover was made of black-colored animal skin. It was an old book.
Yang Chao opened the book. He saw the title' The hundred poems of the dancing Phoenix' on the first page. Then, he read some pages. He closed the book.
" Sir Li Lin, sorry. Poetry is not my thing." Captain Chao spoke and passed the book to his brother.
Unlike him, Bojing loved to read poems after his work. It made him calm and refreshed his mind. So, he took the book and started reading it from one page to another. As he kept reading, his emotions started to change from one page to another. His facial expression changed from a smile to a frown and then changed again. Sometimes he laughed out loud, sometimes tears appeared in his eyes. Li Lin was amazed.
" Muhahaha, he is doing it again. Sir Li Lin, please don't mind him. He always acts like this when he reads a poem. " Captain Chao said.
" No, Captain. I kind of admire him. Your brother is more of a scholar than a warrior. " Li Lin responded. Hearing that Yang Chao frowned slightly.
At that time, Yang Bojing closed the book. Then, he wiped the tear in his eyes covertly.
" Sir Li Lin, this book is really a fine piece of work. Where do you find this book? Can I keep this book?" Yang Bojing asked him.
" City Lord, you can keep it later. But it is not just a poetry book. Many coded messages are in those poems. I have managed to decode some of them for now. " Li Lin responded.
" What is it about?" Captain Chao asked.
" It says something about the location of a Paulownia tree and the phoenixes that perched on this tree. The writer of this book was the founder of this city. Also, I find a very interesting thing about it. This city was already there before even the Fire nation was founded. There are many secrets in this city. " Li Lin told them. Then, he took the book back and started discussing other matters of the city.

The Evergreen world
Joey was currently cultivating beside the riverbank. He had been waiting here for a month. He stood up and looked at the river.
" It is mature." He said.
Then, he walked toward the lotus fruit and plucked it.
" Alright, come out. It's time. "
The snake beast came out from inside the water. It looked at him.
" Get ready, you can start your breakthrough now."
He threw eight lotus seeds at the snake. Its eight mouths caught one seed each and swallowed them.
Afterward, a sudden burst of energy was produced in its body. Then, it started to have a metamorphosis. Another head was slowly growing from its neck.
At that time, just above the snake, lightning tribulations started to appear in the sky. Lightning slowly gathered and came down striking the snake. The snake hissed with pain. It inflicted multiple wounds on its body and blood started to flow from those wounds.
" Two more lightning tribulations are left. You have to bear it." He said.
The next two lightning tribulations also went through successfully. After that, its ninth head was formed successfully. It became a full-fledged nine-headed snake, Xiangliu. It became a late-stage lvl 4 beast. But, it was heavily mutilated from going through that lightning tribulations.
Joey quickly approached and fed a tier 4 pill on one of its mouths. Then, it started to heal quickly.
Joey made another boat and put it on the river.
" Do you want to come along with me?" Joey looked at the snake and asked.
The nine-headed snake nodded.
Then Joey started to chant a mantra to summon the ' Naga Astra'.
" Wait, master. After my breakthrough, I learn a body changing bloodline ability."
Joey heard a feminine voice in his mind.
" Alright, do it. We are leaving now." Joey said.
Then, the giant snake quickly became smaller and it entered inside his sleeve.
The boat then started to move along the stream of water in the river. He started his journey again.

Canon city
A young woman carrying a little girl entered Canon city. Seeing the beautiful houses and tall buildings inside the city for the first time, the little girl felt a broad range of emotions, such as fascination, awe, feelings of transcendence, wonder, and admiration. She smiled and looked everywhere curiously.
" Aunt Mie lien, will I live here from today?" She asked naively.
" Little Xiuying, we will live in a place more beautiful than this place." Mie lien replied.
Then, she took her inside a luxurious building.
" Welcome miss, what can I help you with?" A lady receptionist bowed and welcomed that warmly.
" I need all the dresses and shoes inside this store fitted for this little girl. Also, bring out every piece of jewelry for her age. Pay it from this card." Tang Mie lien told her. Then she gave her a purple card.
" Please wait a moment. We will bring them here shortly." The lady said politely.
Then the lady took the card and rushed toward the storerooms.
After a few minutes, a middle-aged man quickly walked toward them followed by the receptionist.
" Miss, I am the manager of this store. Please follow me to our VIP suite." The middle-aged man brought them inside a room.
After some time, Mie lien came out of the building carrying the little girl. The little girl was wearing luxurious clothes and a pair of shoes. She was adorned with jewelry from head to toe.
" Little Xiuying, are you hungry?" Mie lien asked her. She looked at her and made a satisfied smile.
