C1026 The War Begins
Zhu Yuyan walked to the end of the cave and saw a secret chamber in front of her. She frowned and said to Lin Xiao, "It seems like someone is in seclusion here!"
"In seclusion. . . "
A flash of light flashed in Lin Xiao's eyes. He revealed a faint smile and said, "So that's how it is! I know why Feng Luo was so nervous at that time. "
"Ah?"
Zhu Yuyan looked at Lin Xiao and asked in confusion.
"The reason is very simple. The treasure hidden here is not an item, but a person!"
Lin Xiao looked at Zhu Yuyan and said slowly, "In the entire Phoenix Race, there is a treasure that can make Feng Luo nervous to the point of losing her composure. There is only one person. This person is the person we are looking for!"
"You mean. . . Phoenix Ancestor!"
Zhu Yuyan quickly realized who Lin Xiao was talking about. She frowned and asked, "Are you sure the person who is in seclusion here is Phoenix Ancestor? This place is too remote, isn't it?"
"It is precisely because it is remote that no one would think of it. "
Lin Xiao nodded and said, "The only one who can make Feng Luo nervous is Phoenix Ancestor. If it was an ordinary disciple of the Phoenix Race who was in seclusion here, why would Feng Luo be so nervous? Feng Wu also didn't need to lie about his deceased daughter. The only possibility was that Phoenix Ancestor was in seclusion here! Phoenix Ancestor was the true core of the Phoenix Race. When he broke through to the Saint King Stage, he would definitely attract the attention of others. It's not impossible for him to break through while hiding in a desolate mountain. "
"But now, he's gone. Could it be that he succeeded in breaking through? "
Hearing Lin Xiao's analysis, Zhu Yuyan thought of many possibilities and asked, "Or did Feng Luo and the others discover that the location of his seclusion was exposed and move him?"
"Who knows. "
Lin Xiao smiled lightly. He did not seem to care and said, "Yinyang Saint Master asked us to find out more about Phoenix Ancestor. It is enough that we can find out more about him. As for what happened to Phoenix Ancestor, it has nothing to do with us. Yinyang Saint Master and the others should be the ones who should have a headache. "
To Lin Xiao, although he had been working for Yinyang Saint Master, he had never regarded Yinyang Saint Master as one of his own.
"En. "
Zhu Yuyan nodded. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly felt an unfamiliar aura. She immediately frowned and reminded him. "Someone came in!"
"Let's go!"
Lin Xiao did not hesitate. He immediately took out the Space Gate and brought Zhu Yuyan back to Xifeng Mountain.
This month was about to end. Lin Xiao still had one more Space Gate left. It would be a waste if he did not use it. Of course, Lin Xiao would not feel bad about it.
"Hu! That was close!"
Zhu Yuyan returned to Xifeng Mountain, patted her chest and said with some lingering fear, "That aura just now was very strong. I'm afraid it was an expert from the Saint Master Stage Realm. I just don't know who it was!"
"It might be the person behind Feng Shang. "
Lin Xiao touched his chin and analyzed, "Feng Shang is a disciple of the Phoenix Race. He wouldn't initiate such a trade fair for no reason. What he did. . . There were only two possibilities. One was that he was controlled by someone else. The other was that he was a spy to begin with. No matter which one it was, The people behind him are definitely not simple! "
"Un. "
Zhu Yuyan nodded her head and said with a serious expression, "The death of Feng Shang is probably not simple. The temporary peace between the four major powers and the Pingchuan Union should also be broken!"
"That's right. "
Lin Xiao nodded his head and agreed.
However, Lin Xiao and Zhu Yuyan did not expect the peace to be broken so quickly. The second day after they came back from the abandoned cave, something big happened in Tianfeng Mountain!
The Great Elder of Rain Listening Sect was ambushed by an expert from the wolf tribe and almost died. In order to protect their own lives, the Great Elder had refined them into a refined corpse. Although this would cause their strength to decline a little, at least they could protect their own lives.
Following this incident, the Pingchuan Union launched an all-out attack.
They no longer sent the disciples of the Saints and half-step Saints to probe the situation. Instead, they sent a group of Saint Master disciples to attack the Tianfeng Mountain. As for the four major powers, they didn't want to be outdone, so they responded to the battle of the Pingchuan Union.
The war had begun, and no one could remain aloof from it!
Lin Xiao, Zhu Yuyan, and the people of the Ice Jade Sect were naturally sent to the battlefield. After all, the Phoenix Race treated Hua Luoying and the others well not because they were kind, but because they wanted to make use of their strength. Now that the Phoenix Race was facing an unprecedented crisis, the people of the Ice Jade Sect naturally wouldn't be able to take care of themselves.
Xie Bingyu didn't resist the arrangement of the Phoenix Race. Instead, she cooperated actively.
Whether the Ice Jade Sect stayed in the Phoenix Race or left the Phoenix Race, it wasn't the time for them to resist the Phoenix Race. Otherwise, the Ice Jade Sect would become the target of everyone.
The Phoenix Race was quite satisfied with the cooperation of the Ice Jade Sect.
Regarding the disciples of the Ice Jade Sect, the Phoenix Race had given them a reasonable arrangement. Lin Xiao and Zhu Yuyan, under the lead of two Saint Master warriors, were guarding a mountain called Red Flame Peak.
Although the spiritual energy in the Scarlet Flame Peak wasn't abundant, it was a very important mountain for the Phoenix Race.
Because Scarlet Flame Peak was located at the southeast border of the core area of the Phoenix Race, it could be said to be a natural chasm for the Phoenix Race. Once the Red Flame Peak was lost, the core area of Phoenix Race could be exposed to the enemy. Therefore, the Scarlet Flame Peak played a great role in the strategy of Phoenix Race. There were also many great formations placed on the Scarlet Flame Peak.
Under the protection of numerous great formations, although there were many people from the Pingchuan Union in the outer perimeter of Scarlet Flame Peak, they were still helpless against the great formations.
At the same time, due to the importance of Scarlet Flame Peak, the four major powers also sent two Saint Masters to guard it.
One of them was Feng Wu of Phoenix Race. As the Peak Master of one of the three main peaks of Phoenix Race, the cultivation of Feng Wu was naturally not bad. In terms of status in Phoenix Race, it was second only to Feng Luo of Flying Phoenix Mountain. Letting him guard this place was enough to show how much importance Phoenix Race attached to Scarlet Flame Peak.
Besides the two Saint Masters, the four major powers had also arranged for more than twenty Saints, over a hundred Half Saints, and over a thousand Major Golden Immortal disciples to guard this place.
Overall, the defensive power of the Scarlet Flame Peak was still very perfect!
Zhu Yuyan and Lin Xiao were also among them. Zhu Yuyan was one of the twenty Saints assigned to the Scarlet Flame Peak, while Lin Xiao followed Zhu Yuyan.
More than 20 sages, each of them had to be in charge of controlling a formation.
Under Lin Xiao's instructions, Zhu Yuyan volunteered herself and requested to control a great formation called the 'Ten Mile Flowing Cloud Formation'. Although this great formation did not have any offensive or defensive power, it was a very important monitoring great formation.
As long as an expert entered the range of the Ten Mile Flowing Cloud Array, the Ten Mile Flowing Cloud Array would be able to detect them immediately!
