Chapter 92: Peril at Sea, Violent Phoenix Fire
"Waaah... Yiner, you're so fierce!" Shuier said with a frightened face, immediately changing the way she addressed him, and from time to time stealing glances at her sweetheart with her small eyes.
"Damn it, don't call me Yin'er!" The small silver fox roared with anger, if he was now...he had to send these two main beasts to hell.
"What... what's your name?" Shui'er asked with a trembling heart, but still managed to summon up the courage.
"Don't call out!" The silver fox kicked away the water that had stuck to it with a slightly rough motion.
"Oh, I see, dear." Shui'er said obediently and hid far away, sneaking a peek...
“……”
The silver fox is speechless, this snow fox... indeed, there must be a master for every beast!
"Grandpa, calm down! Don't get angry and hurt your body." Mu Lei suppressed his smile and comforted him. Haha, it's really too funny, seeing Grandpa with a helpless face, that water boy is so annoying, he's about to die from laughter.
"Xiao Mu Zi, you wait for me." The silver fox's blue eyes glared, threateningly, "Hmph! Dare to laugh at him? Go die!"
"Grandpa, it's not my fault!" Mu Lei looked wronged, wanting to cry but unable to shed tears. He knew making fun of Grandpa was wrong, but Grandpa couldn't take revenge on him either!
"You're dead for sure anyway." The little silver fox turned its small face away, not even looking at Mu Lei.
"Grandfather, I'll go find Leng Ruoxue!" Mu Lei said with a flattering expression, hoping to make up for his mistake and not have Grandfather hold it against him.
"What are you waiting for? Go quickly."
"Grandpa, I'm leaving!" Mu Lei said, and quickly disappeared, lest he be implicated by the two main beasts.
Lengruoxue and his party walked for two days in the Forgotten Forest, and finally left the forest filled with toxic substances without any danger.
"Where are we going, Snowy?" The Great Elder's face was full of curiosity and puzzlement.
"Of course we're going to my place!" Yan Yan exclaimed.
"We're going to the Dragon Clan to rescue someone." Leng Ruoxue explained calmly.
"Dragon Clan!" The Great Elder was shocked, is the Dragon Clan so easy to provoke? Still want to go to the Dragon Clan to rescue people, this...
"Hey, young Feng, if you're scared, you can go back the way you came!" The old man said with a provocative tone, somewhat delighted at the misfortune.
"Who said I was afraid? But where is Long Island, can we find it?" The Great Elder hastily denied and asked.
"This little guy will take us there." Leng Qingtian pointed at Yan Yan.
"Does it? Does this little thing really know?" The elder looked at the small bird with a skeptical face, somewhat disbelieving.
"You stinky old man, how dare you look down on Yan Yan?" Yan Yan growled in anger, actually daring to look down on the great Zhu Que, it's unforgivable!
"Yan Yan, be good, let's hurry to Long Island!" Cold Snow stroked Yan Yan's bird head soothingly, it seemed that the Phoenix tribe's temper wasn't very good. This little guy's temper was also so explosive.
"Sister, once we cross this sea, it's the territory of the Dragon Clan and the Phoenix Clan." Yan Yan explained, pointing at the vast ocean in front of them.
After hearing Yan's words, Leng Ruo Xue raised her eyes and carefully measured the not-too-distant, rolling blue ocean. The endless sea surface seemed to have no end in sight.
"Let's go!" Leng Ruoxue said to everyone, she was now anxious like a burning fire!
"Xue Er, how are we going to cross the sea?" Feng Mo Ran asked with some curiosity.
"Let the wings take us flying over!" Leng Ruoxue thought for a moment, if it were usual times, she might have chosen to make a boat, but now she was anxious to save people, so she could only use the fastest method.
"Come on up!" Upon hearing his master's words, Yu immediately enlarged his body and stood suspended in mid-air.
"Let's go."
"Yes, master!" With a flutter of his wings, Yue saw that everyone was seated and immediately flew towards the azure sky.
"How much farther to go?" The Great Elder asked after flying for a day.
"Hmph! Yan Yan won't tell you." Yan Yan tilted her little head, not even looking at the elder, who made her hold a grudge anyway!
"Uh!" The elder looked away awkwardly, humming...
"Haha!" Leng Ruo Xue and the others couldn't help but burst out laughing, bringing a bit of fun to the dull flight over the sea.
"Master, it seems like there's something up ahead." Yu suddenly said with a cautious expression.
"What's wrong?" asked Leng Ruoxue with a hint of puzzlement.
"It should be sea beast." Yu explained.
"Sea beast?" Leng Ruo Xue's eyebrows furrowed slightly as she pondered, if it really was a sea beast, that would be quite troublesome.
What is referred to as a sea beast is actually a spiritual beast in the sea. However, the spiritual beasts in water are different from those on land. The spiritual beasts on land generally do not attack humans unless provoked by humans. Sea beasts, on the other hand, are mostly ferocious and bloodthirsty, even killing their own kind, and many of them can live in both water and on land.
"Sister, let's go around those sea creatures and don't provoke them," Yan Yan reminded, as a member of the Phoenix tribe, she was very aware that these sea creatures, who could be considered neighbors of the Phoenix tribe, would view any creature passing over the sea as food.
"What is Hai Shou doing?" Ling Ruo Xue nodded and then asked Yu.
"Master, it seems that the sea creatures are fighting over territory and it's hard to sneak past them without being discovered." Yu said with some helplessness, as the surface of the sea in front of them was filled with all sorts of sea creatures, densely packed.
"Feathers, let's take a look!" Leng Ruo Xue suddenly said, she didn't want to be so passive, waiting for those sea beasts to finish fighting.
"Yes, master." Yu Ying said, but before it could fly closer, it had already been discovered by the sea beast.
"Food has arrived." It was unclear which sea creature shouted, but instantly, the gaze of all sea creatures was drawn to Leng Ruoxue and others, including the two sea creatures that were still fighting.
"It seems we've been discovered." The old man said with some excitement, his face showing no fear at all.
"Hmm, it's been discovered, these sea beasts are quite powerful!" Leng Qingtian also chimed in, his face full of eager expression.
"Cool as snow, with a head full of black lines, looking at his grandfather and the old man, he was secretly worried. Why are you so excited? Fighting sea beasts on the surface of the sea, for them, it's not advantageous at all."
"Indeed a human, shall we continue to fight?" A gigantic sea python asked its opponent, a giant crab with a fiery red body.
"Our business isn't over yet, are you still thinking of playing tricks on these humans?" The fiery red crab's face was full of disdain, but the corner of his eye was secretly sizing up Cold-as-Snow and the others.
"Let's kill these humans first, and then we'll settle the account later." Haitang proposed, even swallowing his saliva exaggeratedly.
"I'm not interested in these humans, go ahead and kill them if you want!" The crimson crab said indifferently. These humans weren't easy to mess with, just that eagle's level was above it, let alone the fact that they had a phoenix tribe's Vermilion Bird by their side, which didn't want to provoke the extremely protective phoenix maniacs.
"Hmph, coward." The sea snake said disdainfully. It knew that this stinky crab didn't dare to provoke the Phoenix Clan. However, after it killed those humans and then got rid of these crabs, who would know that it was the one who did it?
"It seems they're discussing how to devour us!" Lan Ruoxue said calmly, her face filled with anticipation. Little sea snake, don't disappoint me!
"Master, let's kill all these sea creatures, they're getting in the way." The Ling hanging on Leng Ruoxue's wrist narrowed its eyes and gazed disdainfully at the giant sea python floating in the ocean below. A small crawling insect actually dared to challenge them? How ignorant of death it was.
"I had the same intention." Leng Ruoxue nodded, originally wanting to bypass them, but these sea beasts came to find death on their own, and it was not her fault. However, the spiritual beasts in the water were very difficult to deal with, and they couldn't possibly get into the water, so what should be done?
Just as Leng Ruo Xue was thinking of a countermeasure, the sea python had already launched an attack on them.
"Steady, Yu, we're attacking." said Leng Ruo Xue to Yu.
"Yes, master." // Yu carried Cold-as-Snow and others, stabilizing his own body while also dodging the attacks of those sea pythons.
All that could be seen was wave after wave of water swords shooting towards them, all the sea pythons had launched an attack...
"Xue Er, what to do now?" Leng Qing Tian asked hastily after dodging a water sword. Due to the large number of sea pythons, those water swords were continuous and endless. After dodging one, another one followed immediately, making it impossible to defend against them. They were so busy dodging that they didn't even have a chance to counterattack.
"Ling, can you control the spiritual power of those sea beasts?" asked Leng Ruxue.
"Master, there are too many of them, I have no way." Ling said somewhat dejectedly. It had just said it was going to kill all these sea beasts, but in the blink of an eye, it was made a mess by those sea beasts... Alas! It's a divine beast after all!
What to do? Leng Ruo Xue furrowed her brow, thinking deeply. The sea was the domain of sea beasts, and even if they were strong, they had no advantage on the water. And these sea beasts didn't seem to plan to let them off either. Alas! Now the pressure from the divine beast wasn't very effective against those sea beasts.
"You all exude an aura of intimidation." Cold-as-Snow thought for a moment, then moved all the divine beasts out of her space. She didn't believe that so many divine beasts combined couldn't make these sea creatures cower in fear.
"Wow, there are so many divine beasts!" A sea python said with a somewhat trembling body. Its level was too low, and the pressure from so many divine beasts was overwhelming. Even with the resistance of the seawater, it was having trouble holding on.
"What's there to fear? Even if they have many divine beasts, in the sea, they can't do anything to us." The Sea Python King said nonchalantly. Although it was a 9th-level sacred beast, those land-based divine beasts could only exert as much strength as it did in the sea, or even less than it. Otherwise, how would it be so fearless?
"Take advantage of the situation and attack." Leng Ruoxue said, exchanging a glance with everyone, "First, let's take care of those smaller ones, and finally deal with the largest one."
Leng Qingtian and the others, as well as the beasts, nodded in unison, and launched their strongest attack. Suddenly, a multitude of colorful spiritual energies rained down on the sea creatures like rain, and in an instant, half of them were killed.
"Ah! Humans, I will kill you all." The Sea Snake King was thoroughly enraged at seeing so many of its subordinates die and let out a strange cry from its mouth.
"Master, it's summoning more minions, we have to kill it." Ling reminded.
"Ling, can you kill the Sea Python King?" asked Leng Ruoxue with some curiosity, shouldn't a python be good in water?
"Master, I'm not a turtle," Ling said with some embarrassment. "I'm a duck that can't stand water."
"Huh..." Leng Ruo Xue was also taken aback. It was her first time knowing that there were dragons who couldn't swim.
"Xue Er, what's that?" Leng Qing Tian suddenly pointed at a distant, shimmering multicolored light cluster.
Leng Ruo Xue looked in the direction her grandfather was pointing, and saw a series of sparkling light clusters flying towards them from afar. What is this?
"Sister, they're our clansmen, they've come to help us!" Yan Yan was overjoyed and danced around excitedly.
"Is it the Phoenix Clan?" Leng Qingtian and others were shocked.
It wasn't until those swirling lights flew closer that Leng Ruoxue and the others were finally able to see clearly...
That wasn't a ball of light at all, but a beautiful phoenix with seven-colored radiant plumage. No wonder it's said that the phoenix is the most beautiful spiritual beast, and indeed its reputation isn't exaggerated!
"Blazing!" The phoenix flew to the front of Leng Ruo Xue and others, with a worried face, looking at the small green bird, but its tone was severe.
"Mother, waaah... Mother is so fierce!" Yan Yan was scared and quickly hid behind Leng Ruo Xue's back, seeking protection, occasionally poking out his adorable little head.
Leng Ruo Xue couldn't help but glance at Yan Yan with a hint of amusement, before shifting her gaze to the breathtakingly beautiful Phoenix in front of her.
This is truly a beautiful bird, with its body mainly red, the tail feathers are colorful and vibrant, the whole body is burning with fiery flames, but around the flames, it emits a seven-colored light...and this bird is a divine beast.
"I am Feng Ling'er, Yan Yan's mother. Thank you for saving Yan Yan." Feng Ling'er said gratefully. Just now when Yan Yan had transmitted the situation to her, she was very kind to Leng Ruo Xue and the others.
"I am Leng Ruoxue, they are my family and friends." Leng Ruoxue explained simply.
Feng Ling'er nodded slightly towards everyone in a friendly manner, then immediately turned her fierce and sharp gaze towards the group of sea pythons: "You have such big guts, actually thinking of killing even my child!"
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" The Sea Snake King smiled awkwardly, his heart racing with anxiety... How unlucky it was to have provoked this ancestor, but he really couldn't understand how that green peacock could be the child of this violent woman? Was it a genetic mutation or something?
"What a load of nonsense! So, according to you, if I killed you, that would be a misunderstanding too?" Feng Ling'er's beautiful phoenix eyes widened in anger as she bellowed.
"Auntie, I know I was wrong! You are a magnanimous elder, please spare me!" The Sea Python King begged, although it was a sea creature, but about this person's fierce deeds, it had heard plenty of stories!
"Too late, you want to kill my child, all of you will die!" Feng Ling'er narrowed her eyes and directly sprayed her Nanling Lihuo at the group of sea pythons. Instantly, the surface of the sea became a sea of fire, except for the Sea Python King and its subordinates who were in the midst of the flames, all the other unscathed sea creatures were frightened away.
Awesome! This was the only thought in the minds of Cold-as-Snow and others at this moment.
After dealing with those sea pythons, Feng Ling'er smiled at Leng Ruo Xue and the others, saying: "Ruo Xue sister, you saved my child. On behalf of the Phoenix Clan, I invite all of you to be our guests. Will you grant us this honor?"
Sister! Leng Ruo Xue has a few black lines on her forehead, Yan Yan calls her sister, and this fire spirit calls her younger sister, what a mess!
"Ling sister, we need to go rescue people from the Dragon Clan, so..." Leng Ruoxue was trying to tactfully decline, but didn't want to provoke this hospitable bird either. If it were to breathe fire at them, they would all likely be reduced to ashes. After all, the Phoenix Clan's Nanling Fire was as famous as the Dragon Clan's Longxi.
"Isn't it just those stinky dragons? Don't worry, I'll help you." Feng Ling'er said with a big smile, she had received the king's order and was determined to invite them into their clan.
"Xue'er, since that's the case, let's go visit the Phoenix Clan first!" Leng Qingtian said, giving his granddaughter a wink.
"Alright, sister is so enthusiastic, if I don't accept it would be impolite." Cold Snow said somewhat helplessly, although she didn't understand why the Phoenix Clan, who usually didn't get along with humans, had to invite them as guests. However, as the saying goes, "since you're here, then rest easy", and she also wanted to see what the Phoenix Clan's intentions were.
"I'll lead the way for my sister and others." Feng Ling'er said, turning around and flying towards the Phoenix Clan's territory.
With the escort of the Phoenix tribe, there was no sea beast that dared to harbor evil intentions towards them. After flying for about half a day, they finally arrived at the territory of the Phoenix tribe.
"If Snow sister, Long Island is not far from here, I'll accompany you there when the time comes." After returning to the Phoenix tribe, Feng Ling'er immediately transformed into human form and warmly said to Leng Ruoxue.
"Sorry to trouble you, sister." Leng Ruoxue said politely, taking the opportunity to size up Feng Ling'er's transformed beauty. She was truly a stunning woman! Her face was beautiful and captivating, her dark red eyes shone like the most beautiful rubies, and her figure was fiery and seductive, matching her personality quite well.
"My daughter." At this time, a tall and handsome man with a noble appearance walked over, embracing Huo Ling in his arms, gazing at her with affection.
"There is a guest." Feng Ling'er said with a hint of shyness, her absolutely beautiful face flushing with two red clouds.
"It doesn't matter, you can pretend we don't exist." Leng Ruoxue said with a smile, and tactfully shifted her gaze elsewhere, looking around.
Feng Chao, the territory of the Phoenix Clan, as far as the eye can see, there are only rows of Chinese parasol trees, tall and straight, with dense branches and leaves. It is said that all members of the Phoenix Clan live in these Chinese parasol trees, and nearly a thousand of them have phoenixes or vermilion birds residing in them.
"Snow sister, how is it here?" Feng Ling'er couldn't help but ask.
"Not bad, the fire attribute spiritual energy is very dense." Leng Ruoxue said truthfully. The territory of the Phoenix tribe was all trees, and it couldn't be considered particularly beautiful, but the fire attribute spiritual energy in this place was exceptionally dense, making it very suitable for fire attribute cultivation.
"Hmm, this place is quite suitable for our Feng Clan to reside in, however... Snow sister, let me take you to the place I've arranged for you to stay!" Feng Ling'er trailed off and changed the subject.
"Sorry to trouble you, sister."
Feng Ling'er brought Cold-as-Snow and the others to a wooden house, which had two floors, just enough for all of them to live in.
"If it's Snow sister, you all take a rest first. Tonight, the clan will specially hold a welcome banquet to entertain you." Feng Ling'er said, then turned and left.
"Xue Er, what exactly does the Feng clan want to do?" asked Leng Qing Tian with some puzzlement.
"I don't know, but I think there's no malice." Leng Ruoxue thought for a moment and said. Just now on her way here, she had deliberately observed that the divine beasts of the Phoenix tribe were not in the minority. If they wanted to kill them, it would be as easy as turning their hands over, and they didn't need to be so polite to them.
"Haha, what's the point of thinking so much? We're only able to visit the Phoenix Clan thanks to Little Girl Doll's influence, so we should enjoy ourselves properly." The old man said nonchalantly. After all, the Phoenix and Dragon Clans were the strongest existences on the Lingfeng Continent, if one wanted to kill them, there was no need for such a big fuss, so he wasn't worried in the slightest.
"It's a good thing the Dragon Clan and Phoenix Clan don't have much ambition, otherwise, the Lingfeng Continent would have become their territory long ago." Lin Liang couldn't help but sigh, "Alas, human strongmen only know how to kill each other for that little bit of benefit every day, without even properly cultivating. Look at the Phoenix Clan, how powerful they are!"
"No choice, there are too many troublemakers among humans. Grandfather, let's take a break!" Lan Ruoxue said calmly.
"Alright, let's all get some rest!" Leng Qingtian said to everyone, having been on the road for a while and not getting much sleep.
Everyone found their rooms and went back to their own rooms.
Leng Ruo Xue entered the room and the first thing she did was to go into the 'Qian Kun Chui' to look for Lin Yuan and the others.
"Miss, how did you get in?" Lin Yuan was shocked to see Leng Ruo Xue. For the past few days, Qing Jue had sealed off all connections between the space and the outside world, so he wasn't very clear about what was happening on the outside.
"I came in to take a look at you." Leng Ruoxue explained, because of the relationship between Da Zhanglao and Feng Jie, she hadn't been able to enter the ring for several days.
"We're fine, miss, don't worry." Lin Yuan hastily said.
"Is Feng Ao alright?" Cold-as-Snow nodded, and then asked, that day when she saw Feng Jie and the Great Elder, Feng Ao had wanted to go out, but was refused by her.
"It's fine, we're watching him, what could happen to him?" Lin Yuan said disapprovingly. Feng Ao was really too reckless, only thinking about going out to see his relatives, without considering how he would explain things to his family if he really went out.
"I'll go take a look." Leng Ruoxue said somewhat helplessly, sighing that it wasn't that she didn't want to return the favor, but rather, she couldn't risk her own secrets, and although the Feng family was her ally, not everyone in the Feng family could gain her trust.
Leng Ruoxue directly arrived at Feng Ao's bamboo house and pushed open the door, walking straight in.
"Arrogant." Leng Ruoxue called out in a cold and gentle voice.
"When can I see Grand Elder and Grandfather?" Feng Ao asked, sitting on the bed with his back to Leng Ruoxue.
"After we rescue Feng Da and leave, you can see them then." Leng Ruo Xue explained indifferently, she knew that because of this matter, Ao Ran was somewhat angry with her.
Leng Ruo Xue finished speaking and left Feng Ao Ran's room, entering the Purple Bamboo House.
In the purple bamboo house, Qing Jue was guarding beside the body of the demon.
"Sister, you're here." Qing Jue rushed into Leng Ruo Xue's arms and said coquettishly.
"Thank you, Qing Jue." Leng Ruo Xue hugged Qing Jue, her voice filled with gratitude. Qing Jue had been helping her take care of Yao's body all along, and she was deeply moved.
"It's not hard work, but, sister, what do you plan to do with Ye Chen's body?" Qing Jue asked somewhat curiously, did his sister want to keep the corpse in the Purple Bamboo House forever?
"I don't know, let's just put it here for now." Leng Ruoxue said with a tinge of sadness. She really didn't want to let Yao Jiao leave her side, but she also knew that she couldn't keep him by her side forever, or else Grandfather and the others would worry themselves to death.
"Sister, who is this man?" Baby asked with some vigilance, her bright blue eyes staring tightly at the man on the bed.
"He is the one my sister likes." Leng Ruo Xue explained, her gentle gaze fixed on the demon who was wrapped in ice packs on the bed.
"Isn't Baby someone Sis likes?" Baby asked with a burning jealousy, but the expression on her small face was pitiful.
"Of course, baby is too!" Leng Ruoxue coaxed with a sigh of helplessness. Baby's possessiveness was so strong, and her head hurt again.
"How can sister still like other people?" Baby pouted and said discontentedly.
"Hmm, baby, that's different." Leng Ruo Xue really didn't know how to explain emotional issues to a minor beast.
"What's different?" The baby didn't understand, it just knew, liking is just liking.
"You're still young, you'll understand when you grow up."
"Qing Jue, I'll leave first." Leng Ruo Xue cooed at the baby and then said to Qing Jue.
Leng Ruoxue left 'Qian Kun Chui' and returned to her room, where she saw Leng Qingtian and others waiting for her.
"Grandfather, why didn't you go rest?" asked Leng Ruoxue with some curiosity.
"We've been waiting for you!" The old man replied hastily.
"Hello, anything wrong?"
"What about Snowy, Da Lao and Feng Jie?" Lin Liang asked with a bitter face, as the two outsiders were there, they didn't dare to enter the space anymore.
"I don't know either." Leng Ruoxue said helplessly, those two were one of Feng Dage's grandfathers and the eldest elder of the Feng family. Even if she wanted to give face to Feng Dage, she couldn't drive them away, let alone that the Feng family was her ally. Alas, just watch and see!
"Xue Er, why don't you take us to the space to rest for a while!" Leng Qing Tian spoke up, he knew that Xue Er was also helpless, so he wouldn't ask such questions.
"Alright." Leng Ruo Xue replied, and sent the three old men into space. She then lay down on the bed in the room, taking a simple rest.
It was around dusk when Feng Ling'er came looking for them.
Leng Ruoxue and others arrived at the great hall of the Feng tribe with Feng Ling'er.
The entire hall was built with wutong wood, it's where the Feng tribe holds meetings or banquets. As soon as Leng Ruoxue and others entered the hall, they felt a wave of fire-attribute spiritual energy coming straight at them.
She gazed at the magnificent Phoenix Palace, but her mind was preoccupied with thoughts of who could have designed this grand hall that bore such a striking resemblance to human palaces. The only difference seemed to be the intricate carvings of flying phoenixes on the pillars and walls.
"Is Miss Leng still satisfied with our Feng clan's Council Hall?" A young man of unparalleled beauty and extraordinary bearing, with a faint smile on his face, asked from the throne.
"Not bad." Cold-as-Snow praised, the Phoenix tribe's divine beast had learned some human thoughts and ideas while traveling on the mainland, which was also normal.
"I am Feng Zhan, the king of the Phoenix tribe. Please, don't be formal, come and sit down!" The man on the throne introduced himself, then said very politely.
"If it's Snow sister, our Phoenix clan doesn't have so many rules, you don't need to be polite." Feng Ling'er said as she pulled Hong Ruo Xue down to sit.
"Good." Leng Ruoxue sat down and nodded, if she didn't know that the ones in front of her were all divine beasts, she would have thought they were all human, because these divine beasts' etiquette was more thorough than some humans.
Leng Qingtian and the others nodded to Feng Wang, then sat down beside Leng Ruoxue. However, each person's heart was filled with apprehension. With so many divine beasts present, if the Phoenix Clan had malicious intentions towards them, they would be doomed for sure.
The phoenix on the throne, carefully observing the expressions of the crowd, took in each and every one of their countenances, then shifted all her attention to Leng Ruoxue's body, with a multitude of thoughts swirling in her mind. Could this delicate woman really be the legendary person?
As soon as everyone had just sat down, plate after plate of fruit was brought up, and Leng Ruoxue and the others couldn't help but have a black line on their foreheads. Eh! They wouldn't actually make them eat this stuff, would they?
"Miss Leng, I'm really sorry. Our Feng clan doesn't have much human food, so we can only treat you with these fruits." Feng Zhan said somewhat apologetically.
"It doesn't matter, neither of us is very hungry, eating some fruit will be enough." Lan Ruoxue said with her eyes open.
"Don't be polite, eat more." Feng Zhan said warmly.
"Hmm, okay." Leng Ruoxue steeled herself and picked up a red fruit, taking a bite. Mmm, the taste wasn't bad, although it couldn't compare to her Lingguo.
"If it's Snow sister, these fruits are actually our Feng tribe's special Phoenix fruit. Only honored guests have the qualifications to eat them. Today, sister is benefiting from your presence." Feng Ling'er said with a hint of envy, Father King who usually came across as stingy, was really generous today, taking out so many at once.
"It's the Phoenix King being too polite." Cold-as-Snow replied perfunctorily, after hearing Feng Ling'er's words, she was a bit at a loss for what to say, was it that they had too many good things or was the Phoenix Clan currently living in difficult circumstances?
The Feng tribe's banquet was very dull, so, except for Leng Ruo Xue and others who were always eating fruit, they occasionally chatted with Feng Zhan or Feng Ling'er, while the other seated Feng tribe gods were like wooden stakes, not saying a word, but their eyes were all curiously sizing up Leng Ruo Xue.
Leng Ruo Xue was made to feel uneasy by the gaze of those Feng tribe divine beasts, her hair standing on end. Moreover, she really couldn't understand what was so good about herself. After all, this Feng tribe had countless handsome men and beautiful women.
"Leng Miss, what do you think of our Feng Clan's men?" Feng Zhan suddenly asked.
"Not bad." Leng Ruoxue replied coldly, her forehead covered in sweat. Why did Feng Wang ask her this? Whether the men of the Phoenix tribe were good or evil had nothing to do with her.
"Miss Leng, are you ready to get married?" Feng Zhan asked again, his face full of expectation.
"Not yet." Leng Ruoxue said frankly, but her doubts in her heart grew bigger and bigger. What did Feng Wang want to do after all?
"Miss Leng, it's getting late today, why don't you get some rest early?" Feng Zhan said after asking what he wanted to know.
"Uh, is this where they start chasing us? Leng Ruo Xue and the others had a bad feeling in their hearts, with several drops of cold sweat hanging on their foreheads."
"Let's go back to our room first." Leng Ruo Xue stood up and said to Feng Zhan.
"Grandpa, let's go!" Leng Ruoxue turned her head and said to her grandfather and the others.
"Good." Leng Qingtian and others also stood up, and everyone walked directly towards their residence.
"Grandpa, what does this Feng Wang mean?" asked Leng Ruo Xue with a puzzled expression after returning to their residence.
"Look, it seems like they're trying to play matchmaker for you?" Leng Qingtian couldn't help but speculate, a strange banquet, confusing conversations, had also bewildered him.
"Little doll, give old man some dried meat to eat, I'm starving." The old man directly stretched out his hand in front of Cold-as-Snow's face, begging.
Leng Ruoxue took out the dried meat and distributed it to everyone, taking a piece for herself as well. As she gnawed on it, her mind was pondering the simple banquet they had just had. Hmm, considering their status as beasts, the scale of the banquet earlier should be considered high-end.
"Little doll, I bet the old man has taken a liking to you." The old man who had finished eating his dried meat teased Cold-as-Snow.
"Die, old man! Can't you just die if you don't speak?!" Leng Qingtian shouted hastily after hearing this.
"What? Isn't it possible?! The old man ignored Leng Qingtian's anger and continued."
Just then, a knock at the door was heard. Cold-as-snow opened the door to see two stunningly handsome men standing in the doorway.
"Is anything the matter?" asked Leng Ruoxue with some doubt.
"Miss Leng, Feng Wang has sent us to serve you all." One of the handsome men said with a hint of shyness.
"See, I told you so." The old man smiled and cast a cold glance at Tian.
"Thank you, Feng Wang, but we don't need it." Leng Ruo Xue said politely, and then closed the door.
Outside the door.
"What should we do?" a handsome American man asked his companion with some disappointment.
"I don't know." Another handsome man replied somewhat helplessly.
In the bedroom of the Phoenix King.
"Father King, what exactly do you want to do?" Feng Ling'er asked with a puzzled face, looking at her beloved father.
"Ling'er, what do you think of Cold-as-Snow?" Feng Zhan asked instead, his expression unfathomable.
"Not bad, I like her a lot, and she saved Yan Yan too." Feng Ling'er replied honestly, still having a good impression of Leng Ruoxue, but she didn't know what her father's intentions were.
"That... if Father King intends to keep her in the Phoenix Clan?" Feng Zhan asked tentatively.
“……”
Feng Ling'er had a few black lines on her forehead, did Father King take a liking to Leng Ruoxue? If Leng Ruoxue became Father King's wife, wouldn't she have to call her 'Mother' then? The thought sent shivers down her spine, this was too terrifying. Originally, she was supposed to be calling Leng Ruoxue 'sister', but now... sister becoming mother, how could she accept that?
But the king has been alone for many years, and it's time for him to find a companion. If the king really likes Ruo Xue, then she can only accept it. However, why did the king let Feng Luan and Feng Yang serve Ruo Xue? She was truly bewildered, and Feng Ling'er was extremely entangled in her thoughts, starting to think wildly.
"Father, if Yuxue sister has a favor for me, then I hope this matter is still her own will." After thinking for a moment, Feng Ling'er took a deep breath and advised, she was very familiar with Father's temper, if Yuxue sister was not willing, she was afraid that Father would force it.
"Hmm, I won't force her." Feng Zhan guaranteed.
"That's good." Hearing her father's words, Feng Ling'er finally put down her worries, but as soon as she thought that she would have a stepmother, she became entangled again.
At the same time, on the must-pass road of Long Island, the silver small weasel that had been waiting for the rabbit by the tree stump also learned about Leng Ruo Xue's whereabouts from Mu Li's mouth, and hurriedly rushed to the location of the Phoenix Clan.
"Little Wooden, are you sure that person definitely went to the Phoenix Clan?" Silver Little Fox confirmed, now it couldn't completely believe what Mu Lei said because Mu Lei's credibility was really too poor.
"Master, I guarantee that Leng Ruoxue is definitely in the Phoenix Clan." Mu Li raised one hand, making a swearing gesture.
"Hurry up, don't waste any more time." The silver fox urged anxiously, his heart racing like an arrow! Xue Er, I'm going to see you soon, wu... I miss you so much!
Like this, Mù Lí flew quickly in front while Huǒ Qíng ceaselessly chased after...
"Hey, slow down! I'm going to fall off!" Water shouted loudly, her fluffy little face looking pitiful as she clung to Huo Qing's shoulder.
"You're too slow." The silver fox sneered, humming, that's right, you can't catch up.
After flying at high speed for about two hours, they finally arrived at the territory of the Phoenix Clan.
"Who dares to trespass on the territory of the Phoenix Clan?" A fiery red pheasant blocked their path.
"Sorry, we're not intruding, we're here to find someone." Mu Lei said with a very sincere attitude. He didn't want to fight with a fire-spitting bird at all, he hated fire the most.
"We don't have the person you're looking for here, leave quickly, otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite." The Vermilion Bird said with a displeased face.
"We're here to find Leng Ruoxue, she's a guest in your Feng tribe!" The silver fox said anxiously. Hmph! If it weren't for the fact that its body was too small right now, it would definitely teach this stinky bird a lesson.
"Do you know Leng Ruoxue?" The Vermilion Bird asked with a puzzled expression.
"Of course I know her, hurry up and take us to see her." The silver fox commanded.
"Leng Ruoxue is a guest in our clan, how can we just let her see whoever she wants? You all wait here, I'll go inform them." With that, the Vermilion Bird flew off.
"Little wooden, let's go in directly." The silver little fox said with a big fire, damn it, he wanted to see his own... and actually had to report!
"Grandfather, there are many divine beasts in the Phoenix Clan that we can't deal with right now, so let's wait for a while!" Mu Lei advised reluctantly. Grandfather, hold back, this isn't our own territory!
