Chapter 1172: Leave Tower Canon to Me
The appearance of the black phoenix turned the air above the sea even thinner.
It was as though all the air had been lost to the eternal night.
At first glance, the black phoenix did not seem impressive. However, this was not because it had plain features.
The black phoenix was like a black hole that had opened in the cage of pure darkness.
At that moment, the black phoenix spread its wings, and the darkness that the island was drowning in was sucked back into the black phoenix’s body.
With sunlight pouring on the island again, the black phoenix appeared even more inhibited as it did not even allow a hint of its aura to leak out.
When White Phoenix returned to its original form, the Scorching World Heat Dragon looked relieved, and it said to White Phoenix in a derisive tone, “You’re only Immortal III. You haven’t even awakened your colored armor. How dare you act so high and mighty and say that I’m far from being able to kill you? No matter what, this place shall become the burial ground for your ashes today.”
White Phoenix swished his black tail feathers and replied determinedly, “A normal fey will never understand us, Heavenly Family Feys. Our strength is a gift from the heavens. You can’t even imagine wielding such a gift. Dragon blood flows in your muscles while dragon marrow exists in your bones. You’re considered an impressive main dragon-species, but you haven’t produced the dragon pearl. The highest level you’ll ever be able to reach in your life is main dragon-species. Today, I shall teach common trash like you about the canyon of difference between you and Heavenly Family Feys!”
White Phoenix’s words were br.i.m.m.i.n.g with arrogance, and he sounded like a celestial being that was jeering at mortals.
The Scorching World Heat Dragon exploded with rage when it heard White Phoenix’s insults.
The Scorching World Heat Dragon’s fury triggered the underwater geology and caused several underwater volcanoes to open up.
The lava spewed by the underwater volcanoes stained the sh.o.r.es red.
At that moment, the Scorching World Heat Dragon realized that the lotus leaf was continuing to grow in the boiling water.
This discovery stunned the Scorching World Heat Dragon, and it glared at the blue-haired girl on the platform in the middle of the water.
The Scorching World Heat Dragon was most shocked by the fact that the blue-haired girl was relaxedly munching on persimmons in the middle of such a situation.
An elderly man with red tower patterns embroidered on his long red robe materialized before the Scorching World Heat Dragon.
He grabbed the Scorching World Heat Dragon’s bone spear and said solemnly to White Phoenix, “I never expected to see the Heavenly Family Cottage’s Eternal Night Nether Phoenix on this remote island. I forgot to introduce myself. I’m the person from Tower Canon who makes decisions on this island. I’m Lord First Page Crimson’s Lead Chanter.”
The old man’s expression turned grim, and he said threateningly, “Regardless of whether my feys can defeat you, you attacked Tower Canon and killed the Kneeling Chanter that Lord First Page Crimson picked out himself. The Heavenly Family Cottage will not be able to hold out against his wrath!”
He was astonished by this situation, and he did not understand why the Heavenly Family Cottage that had always tiptoed around Tower Canon was suddenly behaving so out of the ordinary.
It was one thing to cause trouble, but they had even killed one of Tower Canon’s members.
Although the elderly man was First Page Crimson’s Lead Chanter, the death of one of First Page Crimson’s Kneeling Chanters would be discovered the next time the 36 Chanters kneeled to wors.h.i.+p First Page Crimson.
The elderly man did not care about how First Page Crimson was going to punish Heavenly Family Cottage. He hoped that the Eternal Night Nether Phoenix would remember and fear First Page Crimson’s reputation and do the smart thing and leave.
Although the Scorching World Heat Dragon was Immortal IV while the Eternal Night Nether Phoenix was Immortal III, the Eternal Night Nether Phoenix was a genuine Heavenly Family Fey.
The elderly man could not help but s.h.i.+ver when he thought of the Heavenly Family Feys’ special characteristics.
Before White Phoenix could reply, an enormous hole opened in the middle of the sea and revealed the moving geological formations deep below the surface of the sea.
The two sides of the parted sea turned into two light blue lotus flowers, and they closed together like a pair of tongs with the island between them.
The island was crushed by the lotus flowers and was swallowed by the sea.
The Scorching World Heat Dragon used its immortal power to s.h.i.+eld the elderly man. However, the two flowers carried the force of the sea, and the remaining three experts and their feys that did not have the Scorching World Heat Dragon’s protection were turned into crushed sc.r.a.ps that were devoured by the sea.
Blue Lotus said coldly, “There are 17, not 16, members in our Heavenly Family Cottage. Since you claim that there are only 16 members in our Heavenly Family Cottage, you should know why we killed one of you. The two of us won’t be able to defeat Tower Canon’s Eight Pages not because our Heavenly Family Cottage is afraid of the Eight Pages. The Heavenly Family Cottage has been lying low for millennia, but that doesn’t mean we’re easy prey. Who cares about First Page Crimson’s wrath?”
At that moment, the blue-haired girl looked delighted and said to the elderly man with glee, “I really should thank your stupid dragon. Hehe, the fire that erupted from the underwater volcanoes helped my companion heal his injuries sooner than we expected.”
The moment the last word left Blue Lotus’ lips, the rust-colored sh.o.r.es turned golden red.
The red was beautiful, while the gold was radiant.
The red was like blood that was oozing from the bottom of the sea, while the gold was a blinding warm ray that was shooting up from the bottom of the sea.
A tall skinny red-haired man suddenly materialized next to White Phoenix.
His one gold eye and one red eye stared at White Phoenix seriously as he said, “Brother White Phoenix, leave the people from Tower Canon to me.”
The red-haired man’s tone was warm but also full of resolution.
White Phoenix sighed and reverted back to his human form.
