Fate plays tricks on us

When Feng Buqun and the high-ranking members emerged from the secret realm, they saw a vast expanse of fire stretching across the sky.

Many palaces had evidently turned into a sea of flames.

At this time, Qilin Xiao Hei and Xiao Ga were still continuously setting fires everywhere.

Before long, the two parties met again in front of a palace, and Qilin Xiao Hei did not shy away.

“Yo, we meet again!”

He even greeted the Phoenix Feather Sect members warmly.

His cordial tone, if one were unaware of the situation, would make one think they were very familiar with each other and had a good relationship.

This scene, however, utterly disgusted the Phoenix Feather Sect members.

Arrogant, he was simply too arrogant.

He had destroyed the foundation of the Phoenix Feather Sect, burned many of its grand halls, and now, he stood before them as if nothing had happened.

He was truly detestable to the extreme.

At this moment, Feng Buqun led the way, standing prominently before everyone.

He looked at Qilin Xiao Hei and said coldly, “Qilin Xiao Hei, you are too arrogant. Do you think my Phoenix Feather Sect truly cannot do anything to you?”

Qilin Xiao Hei rolled his eyes.

“Anyone can talk big, but the key is to show some real skill. If it’s like that broken formation from before, there’s no need to mention it in front of me.”

This scene made everyone grit their teeth in anger.

Yet, they couldn’t find any words to refute him.

Feng Buqun’s eyes narrowed.

He didn’t waste any more words.

As soon as Divine Bird appeared, Qilin Xiao Hei would naturally cry.

He moved the altar out and placed it in front of him.

He performed a grand three-kneel, nine-kowtow ceremony towards the altar.

Then, he formed a hand seal and cast out a profound yellow mark.

This mark was the key to activating the blood crystal.

As the mark merged into the blood crystal, a buzzing sound emanated.

The blood vibrated, emitting a five-colored divine light.

A vast and ancient aura spread out from within the blood crystal.

With a cry, the blood seemed to come alive, instantly transforming into a colossal creature.

It was a Luan bird, a hundred zhang tall.

It had long, multicolored feathers.

Every feather seemed to be forged from divine metal.

Its pointed beak was like a sharp sword, its claws like mountain peaks, and its eyes like the sun and moon, dazzling and brilliant.

Its aura was terrifying, exuding a formidable and ominous presence, as if it were an unparalleled great fiend that had transcended time and space from ancient times.

Powerful!

Fierce!

Terrifying!

And awe-inspiring.

This was the adult Five-Colored Vicious Luan.

Seeing the Five-Colored Vicious Luan appear, the Phoenix Feather Sect disciples became excited.

This was their faith.

This was their reliance.

It was also one of the main reasons they could run rampant in the Chaotic Land and become its overlord.

“Qilin Xiao Hei, even now, do you still think my Phoenix Feather Sect cannot do anything to you?”

Feng Buqun laughed wildly.

The dignified Phoenix Feather Sect was being thrown into chaos by two beasts.

Today, he would let them know how dire the consequences of offending his Phoenix Feather Sect would be.

Qilin Xiao Hei, suspended in the sky, looked at the hundred-zhang-tall Five-Colored Vicious Luan with some lingering fear.

He felt that this time, he seemed to have hit a tough opponent.

The opponent’s strength was very formidable.

It was not something he could deal with at the moment.

“Xiao Ga, let’s go!”

At this moment, he called out to Xiao Ga, urging him to run away quickly.

However, at this moment, Xiao Ga was mesmerized by the figure in the sky, completely oblivious to what Qilin Xiao Hei was saying.

“You fellow, how can you mess up at such a crucial moment?”

Qilin Xiao Hei became anxious.

It is said that the joys and sorrows of people are not the same.

Here, Qilin Xiao Hei was in a great hurry.

On the other hand, the Phoenix Feather Sect members were excited.

The crimes Qilin Xiao Hei had committed in the Phoenix Feather Sect were truly shocking.

Now seeing him flustered, everyone felt a great sense of satisfaction.

“Trying to leave now, isn’t it too late!”

Feng Buqun sneered.

Then, he respectfully addressed Divine Bird.

“Divine Bird, it is they who destroyed the foundation of my Phoenix Feather Sect, ruined the prestige of my Phoenix Feather Sect, and threw my Phoenix Feather Sect into utter chaos.”

“Please, Divine Bird, take action and kill these two beasts.”

If it were earlier, Feng Buqun would certainly have wanted to spare Qilin Xiao Hei and the little bird’s lives.

However, what they did today completely crossed his bottom line and ignited his boundless killing intent.

Though a dead Qilin Xiao Hei was less valuable than a living one, at this point, he couldn't afford to care about that.

The dignity of the Phoenix Feather Sect could not be trampled upon.

Just as Feng Buqun spoke, and all the high-ranking members of the Phoenix Feather Sect eagerly awaited Divine Bird to take action, the Five-Colored Vicious Luan in the sky looked at Feng Buqun with ill intent.

“My Five-Colored Vicious Luan clan and your Phoenix Feather Sect signed a contract: you will worship my clan for generations, and in return, my clan will provide protection for the Phoenix Feather Sect.”

“These were the terms when we signed the contract.”

Under the gaze of the Five-Colored Vicious Luan, Feng Buqun felt a terrifying pressure sweeping over him.

That fierce aura and the colossal figure made him feel his own insignificance.

He didn't know what Divine Bird meant by saying this at this moment.

He didn't even dare to look directly at Divine Bird.

He could only respectfully respond, following its words, “Yes.”

Upon hearing this, the Five-Colored Vicious Luan sneered.

Fierce light surged in its eyes.

“You are now trying to use the essence blood I left behind to kill my child. Is this how you worship my clan?”

As it spoke, its body moved, and it took a step.

In an instant, the earth shook, and a huge hole was directly trampled into the ground, stirring up endless rolling dust.

It seemed to be demonstrating its inner rage, as turbulent as the swirling dust.

Upon hearing these words, Feng Buqun felt a sudden dizzy spell, and his pupils involuntarily widened by three circles.

His heart churned with endless waves.

He trembled, pointing at Xiao Ga.

His face was full of disbelief as he said, “He… he is your child?!”

The Five-Colored Vicious Luan said coldly, “This child looks so much like me. What? Can’t you tell?”

Feng Buqun was on the verge of tears.

How the hell does he look like you?

Putting everything else aside, that duck-like beak, so ugly, where could one see even a hint of the Five-Colored Vicious Luan’s splendor?

This was no longer a matter of resemblance.

They looked like two completely different species.

He had even previously mobilized the entire sect’s power, diligently searching for the lost Divine Bird.

Yet now, fate had played a cruel joke on him.

The fugitive the Phoenix Feather Sect had been chasing was the very Divine Bird he sought?

Not only that, the trump card he had brought out was supposed to kill its own child.

As soon as he thought of this, Feng Buqun felt his entire world darken.

His mentality almost completely collapsed.

They say fate plays tricks on people.

But this fate, it was going to play him to death!

For a moment, Feng Buqun seemed to have his spine removed, and his entire body went limp, collapsing to the ground.

He closed his eyes in pain and despair.

At this moment, he had only one thought.

He was finished!

The Phoenix Feather Sect was also finished!
