The voice carried by the bird was clear and melodious, as though the bird had transformed from a lovely young woman.
Xiao Ming secretly nodded. It seemed this truly was Nine Nether. She had not yet gone out to undergo her tribulation and evolve, and it looked like she had only recently broken through to the Sovereign Realm.
Now that he had caught her, he had effectively saved her life.
To be honest, Xiao Ming truly could not understand what this bird had been thinking. The Nine Netherbird Clan was not weak, and it even had a Spirit Grade Heavenly Sovereign.

"Your father really was a naming genius!"
Xiao Ming chuckled. This was the second person he had encountered with such a name. The first had been the Amethyst Winged Lion King he met
