Chapter 1546: Fire Bathing Phoenix
Sigma_ SSins
“What happened with Patriarch Chauncey?”
A middle-aged man of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe looked surprised. He couldn’t help but turn to Cornet, the Chief of the Heavenly Eye Clan, his eyes turning sharp. “What the heck is your Heavenly Eye Clan doing? What did you do to make the Patriarch like that?”
Cornet and the elders of the Heavenly Eye Clan were bewildered. They were anxious as they didn’t know what was going on.
“If something trivial you did enraged Patriarch Chauncey... Hmm!” The voice of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe middle-aged man was threatening.
Cornet’s changed his visage. He looked further and found that it was Yvelines’s temple that Chauncey had aimed at. They were so frightened.
“Move! Let’s see what’s going on over there!”
The warriors of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe left Cornet’s team behind. They turned into jets of lights and shot towards Yvelines’s temple.
There were many young warriors of the Heavenly Eye Clan that came to worships the statues around. They saw the shooting flames fall on one of the temples. They were panic-stricken as they tried to see what had just happened.
“Oh f*ck! It’s the members of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe again!” someone cursed indignantly. “My family has three abundant flaming crystal mines. They robbed us without a proper explanation. Those Fiery Phoenix Tribe clansmen are all hot-tempered. They often mess things up in our territory. They’re such a pain in the ass!”
“Let alone you guys, we are in the same situation. What else can we do? The Fiery Phoenix Tribe is so powerful. Chauncey’s at the Territory Ancestor Realm. In the Mysterious Sky Clan’s point of view, they are heavier than us. Of course, we can’t compete with them. We have to endure.”
“Sigh, we have to be patient all the time. Those members of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe are too haughty. They’ve claimed our mines and even asked us to find the mine slaves for them. If it continues that way, it will be even worse than before!”
“The Fiery Phoenix Tribe got it done on their own. I think the Mysterious Sky Clan didn’t know that. If we can report it to the key members of the Mysterious Sky Clan, I think we can subside the Fiery Phoenix Tribe’s effects.”
“There is no use. The Mysterious Sky Clan will only consider the Fiery Phoenix Tribe’s voice. They don’t care about us. They have the Territory Ancestor so the Mysterious Sky Clan has to give them face. What do we have? Ah, it’s unimaginable that we can be dependent on the Mysterious Sky Clan. What could we ask for me?”
“. . .”
Many members of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe turned into jets of flames and lnaded on the holy land. Seeing them, the warriors of the Mysterious Sky Clan cursed under their breath.
“Dirty mouths!”
Right at this moment came a smirk from a member of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe from a jet of fire.
The red-orange flames like fireballs fell from the sky and exploded right in the middle of the clamoring crowd. The young warriors of the Heavenly Eye Clan were charred and wounded.
“Damn! They dare to attack us right in our holy land!”
The members of the Heavenly Eye Clan couldn’t help but scream and roar. The disciples of the big elders wanted to counterattack. At this moment, Corner, the Chief of the Heavenly Eye Clan, landed and rolled his eyes at them.
They then shut their mouths and stopped acting rashly in front of the chief. However, their outrageous eyes were still fixed on one Fiery Phoenix Tribe warrior, a haughty young man at the Incipient God Realm and with long, red hair. He was Chauncey’s apprentice called Hong Fei who belonged to the aristocratic class of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe.
Hong Fei hovered in the air and looked down on the young warriors of the Heavenly Eye Clan while smirking.
After Corner came to Hong Fei, he shouted at his fellows and smiled to calm Hong Fei down.
Hong Fei laughed loudly and swung his hands. He didn’t even give Cornet face, walking directly to the temple Chauncey had landed. He ditched Corner at his spot.
Cornet’s face turned from pale to white as he tried to suppress his anger. He rolled his eyes at his fellows and left hurriedly.
The members of the Heavenly Eye Clan under Hong Fei’s attack were so outraged. They felt so humiliated. Hong Fei disdaining their Chief made them more irritated than when their bodies got hurt.
He was looking down on their entire race!
Shortly after, Cornet and the elders of the Heavenly Eye Clan, Hong Fei and the warriors of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe had gathered by Yvelines’s temple.
At this moment, Chauncey’s eyes were so hot. He was holding a flaming crystal with both hands, his body shaking in excitement.
The Elders of the Heavenly Eye Clan including Yvelines, Masha, and Adams grimaced. They looked at Chauncey indignantly.
“Master, it’s mine...”
Little Ya mumbled and rolled her eyes at Chauncey of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe. “This old man doesn’t know what’s right or wrong. He didn’t say anything and just snatched my thing. Why is he so arrogant?”
Chauncey had suddenly landed in front of Yvelines, Masha, and Adams and snatched the flaming crystal gifted by Zi Yao. Then, he ignored the questions from Yvelines’s team and remained completely absorbed in the fire bathing phoenix inside the crystal. He didn’t even bat his eyes at Yvelines’s team.
Hong Fei and the members of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe saw Chauncey hold the flaming crystal with both hands and mumble to himself.
Hong Fei was bewildered at first. But then, the dancing phoenix inside the flaming crystal had dazed him. He stammered, “It’s... it’s our Ancestor’s totem. It’s a large piece of a broken soul altar. My gosh! How could it be?! How could it be?!”
At this moment, all the members of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe were frightened. The fire energy on their bodies became uncontrollable.
Chauncey woke up from his excitement. He clutched the flaming crystal and took a deep breath to calm down his restless mind. He then asked Yvelines, “Where did you get this flaming crystal?”
He didn’t sound like he wanted to return the thing. He wanted to take it and find out its source.
If Yvelines’s team didn’t give him a satisfied answer, he would kill them all for the totem of his ancestor.
If Yvelines got the crystal from an illegitimate source!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The scorching heat increased in the entire temple. Chauncey became a massive fireball. In this moment, the fiery phoenix on his garment was revived. It was slowly gathering energy.
As Chauncey was gazing at Yvelines, he felt horror-struck as if Chauncey would burn him into ashes in just a blink of an eye.
Cornet was frightened. He screamed continuously, “Yvelines! Do not conceal. Do not conceal anything. You tell him all that you know. We are all dependent on the Mysterious Sky Clan; as long as we make ourselves clear, I’m sure precursor Chauncey won’t trouble us!”
He was scared so he had to mention the Mysterious Sky Clan. He hoped that Chauncey would give the Mysterious Sky Clan face and not act rashly.
“Don’t worry. If you tell the truth, I won’t trouble you,” Chauncey squinted. “But if you hide anything, haha. Even the Mysterious Sky Clan won’t be able to stop me from finishing you! This flaming crystal is a piece of our Ancestor’s broken soul altar. It’s our legendary sacred item! We must know where you got it!”
Yvelines was shaken hard. He considered and then said, “It was from a friend’s wife. She gifted it to my student. We didn’t know that this flaming crystal was related to your Ancestor. We didn’t know anything.”
“Of course, you knew nothing. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have dared to take it out. Haha, I didn’t want to go to your Heavenly Eye Clan. I didn’t expect to get such a big harvest!” Chauncey laughed contentedly, fire winding around his body. He didn’t linger and just spoke resolutely, “Where is the one who gave you this crystal? Tell me the truth. I won’t trouble you. Otherwise, you know what will happen to you. Hmm!”
“Spit it out!” Cornet was so restless as if he had a flame burning his heart. He was afraid that Chauncey would spray his flame of anger at the entire Heavenly Eye Clan. Seeing Yvelines hesitate, he urged, “You don’t want to put our clan in danger, do you? Yvelines, for your teacher’s sake, tell us the truth!”
“Hong Fei, barricade the Heavenly Eye Clan’s holy land. Now!” Chauncey ordered and forowned.
The warriors of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe scattered immediately, turning into bands of fire and hovering about the holy land of the Heavenly Eye Clan.
Most of them were at profound realms with at least six or seven experts at the Immortal Realm. They instantly set up a scorching sea of fire above the Heavenly Eye Clan’s holy land!
The fiery band temporarily sealed the Heavenly Eye Clan’s holy land entirely.
No outsider could get in there. At the same time, the elders inside the holy land couldn’t get out unless they tore that flaming barrier.
The members of the Heavenly Eye Clan surrounding the holy land were frightened. They hastily sent information to their families and told them that the experts of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe had intruded on their holy land.
Instantly, all the families and forces in the Heavenly Eye Clan were shaken. The experts then gathered at their max speed. They had to risk their lives to protect the glory of the holy land!
They understood that they couldn’t resist the Fiery Phoenix Tribe, so they tried to contact the Mysterious Sky Clan.
Too bad for them, the Sound Stone that could contact the Mysterious Sky Clan was inside the holy land. As their holy land was sealed, they couldn’t contact the Mysterious Sky Clan.
—————-
The holy land of the Heavenly Eye Clan.
Hong Fei and the experts of the Fiery Phoenix Tribe left and returned quickly. Hong Fei grinned, “Master, we have control of the Sound Stone connecting to the Mysterious Sky Clan. They can’t report anything to Mysterious Sky Clan.”
This man had followed Chauncey for years. He understood his teacher well. He understood his teacher’s idea from just a wink.
“Well done!” Chauncey nodded. As he knew the situation was under control and the Heavenly Eye Clan couldn’t wiggle, he turned to Yvelines one more time. A dim flame arose in his eyes. “Now, tell me. Where did you get this flaming crystal?”
