248: Chapter 248 A Messy Story

A camouflage-colored military helicopter swayed as it headed toward Divine Phoenix Mountain.

There weren't many people on board; besides the pilot and three camera crew members, there were two women.

Reporter Wang Xiaoli's face, despite her proper makeup, was drained of all color, even though she had just touched it up a moment ago.

Her body's crisis intuition was warning her that there was great danger on that giant mountain ahead!

The closer the helicopter got to Divine Phoenix Mountain, the more violently her delicate body trembled. She turned to the side and pleaded with Yu Weiyue.

"Leader... why did you bring me along? I'm just an ordinary reporter. If you really want to report on the Lord Ancient Divine Phoenix, you could completely find a more professional war correspondent to do it..."

Although her voice was filled with a crying tone, full of grievance, and even tears in her eyes.

But Yu Weiyue still shook her head.

"If you didn't possess a unique talent for emergency avoidance, and weren't one of the few humans the Ancient Divine Phoenix is familiar with, we wouldn't have let you take this risk... Besides, you already promised our officials you would support this operation; it's too late to regret it now."

"Ah..."

Reporter Wang Xiaoli was about to cry. She had originally thought that when the officials found her, they wanted her to go to the suburbs for some kind of outdoor livestream.

Having experienced several suburban beast crises a few months ago, how could she have agreed... In the end, under the persuasion of her company and the officials, she agreed to this request.

But what she didn't expect was that their destination this time was actually Divine Phoenix Mountain, where the Ancient Divine Phoenix was located. Who the heck has the guts to go there?!

Yu Weiyue saw that her psychological state was very average and she was inwardly terrified, so she began to comfort her.

"Rest assured, we in Jianghai City have already had contact with the Ancient Divine Phoenix many times, and there has never been any danger."

"Besides, I remember the intelligence records stating that you were saved by the Ancient Divine Phoenix, so don't be too afraid and scare yourself."

Reporter Wang Xiaoli was stunned. "This..."

The Ancient Divine Phoenix had indeed saved her life once, but that was purely a coincidence...

"Forget it, thinking about it that way, it seems I'm really not that scared anymore..."

A while later, the camouflage-colored helicopter landed steadily on the summit of Divine Phoenix Mountain.

On the summit, a black and white little mountain suddenly trembled.

Sensing the movement, Xiong Er's two round ears on its head twitched, and it opened its sleepy Giant Panda eyes to look upward.

"Humans again..."

It opened its bear mouth, smacked its lips, and turned over to continue sleeping.

"This Giant Panda has grown even bigger! It definitely wasn't this big last time!"

Reporter Wang Xiaoli, who had just stepped off the helicopter, exclaimed, feeling the change in Xiong Er was unbelievable.

"Indeed..."

Yu Weiyue, who was beside her, also somewhat agreed.

At this moment, the few people who had gotten off the helicopter found that this place made them feel comfortable, their whole bodies relaxed, and they felt very much like taking a nap.

Yu Weiyue whispered a reminder, "Everyone, perk up! The concentration of spiritual energy in the surrounding area is high, which will make our bodies unconsciously slack off... Don't forget, the Ancient Divine Phoenix is on this mountaintop!"

"Hiss..."

"Okay..."

Afterwards, the group walked towards the center of the summit, in the direction of the fiery red figure.

"Lord Divine Phoenix, we are here to implement a simple plan, and we hope you will cooperate with us."

Ye Yang was lying prone on the ground, his pair of fiery red wings with a twenty-meter wingspan glowing brilliantly in the light, beautiful and noble.

He opened his golden pupils, looked down at the few people in front of him, and nodded.

He still kept his promises; that Sea King Beast crystal had been of great help to him, and some small requests from humans didn't matter; he would just consider it as amusement in his ordinary salted-fish life.

Seeing Ye Yang's calm expression, everyone present let out a heavy sigh of relief in unison, and the heavy stone in their hearts was put down.

Afterwards, Yu Weiyue explained the plan formulated by Jianghai City to Ye Yang.

After a while, Ye Yang glanced at the people on the ground.

"You want me to tell a story in front of the camera?"

The cold, sharp voice was very calm. Even so, it still made Yu Weiyue and her group feel a tightening in their hearts.

Yu Weiyue nodded nervously. "It is indeed as Lord Divine Phoenix said."

"Fine, what a melodramatic story."

"Chirp chirp... Indeed, so melodramatic."

Hearing the banter between Ye Yang and the Little White Fox Ah Li, who was floating in the air, Yu Weiyue and the others all lowered their heads in embarrassment.

Wait, why is this cute little white fox floating in the air?!

Goodness!

Everyone was a bit shocked, but upon thinking of the various extraordinary methods of this fiery red, handsome giant bird in front of them, they calmed down.

Their subsequent work was very simple: the high-definition camera started, Reporter Wang Xiaoli got into position, and then they waited for Ye Yang to tell the story according to the script.

The plan of the Jianghai City leaders was to have Ye Yang personally state that his origin was the Divine Phoenix, and that the Black Flood Dragon was a dark evil dragon; both had awakened from a secret place on the Blue Star and began a long battle.

At the same time, it was more important to clarify that the Dragon race and the Divine Phoenix race had already gone extinct, and they were the only descendants of their respective races.

It sounded very straightforward, simple, and brainless, and all the leaders of Jianghai City thought so too, but there was no other way. If the plan was designed to be complex, they had to consider the most important situation: whether this giant bird creature, Ye Yang, would cooperate with them.

After about half an hour, the filming ended.

The Little White Fox Ah Li, floating in the air, was a bit speechless.

"Chirp chirp... Paper cannot wrap up fire. Didn't your Great Xia Kingdom ancients say that covering one's ears to steal a bell is ridiculous and ignorant?"

Facing the Little White Fox's question, Yu Weiyue gritted her teeth and did not answer. In fact, she didn't believe in her heart that this video could solve the fundamental problem at hand either.

The citizens of the Great Xia Kingdom were not so easy to fool... But, some effect is better than no effect.

The Little White Fox Ah Li watched the helicopter leave, her dog-sized fox eyes full of confusion.

"Chirp chirp... Humans are really complex..."

Ye Yang glanced at her and answered the doubt in her heart.

"Because the citizens of the Great Xia Kingdom don't know the current situation of the Blue Star. Didn't you say, Ah Li, that the mobile network could only connect to Jianghai City a few days ago?"

"Information for ordinary people is now even more blocked. The Great Xia Kingdom needs time to prepare to face the future upheavals; they cannot let the situation descend into chaos."

"Chirp chirp... So complex, I still don't understand..."

"Watch fewer brainless romance dramas in the future; that stuff is bad for your brain development!"

"Chirp chirp!"

...

In the sky, the helicopter that had left Divine Phoenix Mountain and was heading towards Jianghai City.

Suddenly, the pilot was shocked!

"The Ancient Divine Phoenix is chasing us!"

"What?!"

"Ah!"

Led by his exclamation, everyone in the helicopter looked in that direction.

They saw two fiery red figures, bursting with speed that the naked eye could barely track, rushing rapidly toward the helicopter!
