Xiaohuo looked at the obstinate Ye Luo, recalling from his ancestral memories that when Ye Luo was but a common Purple Eagle without awakened bloodline, Vermilion Bird had given him much assistance and even saved his life. To express his gratitude, he wished to stay by her side. However, Vermilion Bird refused and said that if they met again and he had fully unlocked his bloodline, breaking through to become a Divine Spiritual Beast, then she would permit him to follow her.
"You are an ancient Spiritual Beast, now the king of your clan, with your own status and power," Xiaohuo continued to try to persuade Ye Luo.
"None of that can stop my heart from following Lady Vermilion Bird!" Ye Luo declared resolutely, "Ye Xi, from today on, you are the king of the Purple Eagle Clan. I, Ye Luo, pass the kingship to you. You must lead the Purple Eagles to live well."
