Chapter 1423 The Return of the Killing God

As she spoke, an inexplicable uneasiness suddenly surged in her heart. She looked back, only to find that Lin Fan, who was supposed to be behind her, was nowhere to be seen. This discovery made her extremely anxious, thinking to herself: Where was this guy at the critical moment? His disappearance made her feel an indescribable panic, as if she had lost an important support.

However, the situation at hand did not allow her to be too distracted. With a sneer, Sirius walked slowly in front of her and said in a condescending manner: "Miss Cang, I think you have made a mistake. Now it is not up to you to make the decision in the Cang family." His voice Cold and cruel, every word pierced Phoenix's heart like a needle.

"What do you mean?" Phoenix tried to stay calm, but her voice still trembled involuntarily. She felt something bad in her heart. This bad feeling was like a dark whirlpool, swallowing her up bit by bit. She couldn't help but hugged her mother, as if she wanted to draw some strength from her mother, and at the same time took two steps back, trying to keep a certain distance from Sirius.

However, Sirius pressed forward step by step, and his momentum suddenly became aggressive. The group of drunken and arrogant soldiers were all looking at Phoenix with murderous eyes. Their expressions were ferocious, as if they would pounce on her and tear her into pieces at any moment. This sense of oppression made Phoenix feel suffocated, her heartbeat accelerated, and cold sweat trickled down her back.

"The danger of helping you assassinate Nalan Qing is much greater than defecting. So," Tianlang paused, with a proud smile on his face, "We chose very wisely to rely on the Nalan family. Hehehe!" His smile The sound was sharp and harsh, as if mocking Phoenix's innocence and ignorance.

 Phoenix's eyes widened and he looked at Sirius in disbelief. She once trusted him so much and even regarded him as the most loyal warrior of the Cang family. However, now, he stood on the opposite side of her and betrayed her and her family in this way. Her heart was filled with anger and grief, but mostly a sense of powerlessness. She understood that she could not change anything now, and could only watch helplessly as Tianlang and his dead men trampled on the dignity of the Cang family.

However, even in the face of such a desperate situation, Phoenix's eyes still shone with determination. She knew that she couldn't just give in or give up. She held her mother's hand tightly, as if she wanted to draw strength from her mother, then straightened her back and faced Sirius and his dead soldiers with a decisive attitude. Even if she knew she was defeated, she would still use her own way to defend the last bit of dignity of the Cang family.

"Sirius, you are indeed a complete traitor!" Phoenix said through gritted teeth. Although her voice was weak, it was full of determination and strength. "Do you think you can rest easy by joining the Nalan family? Let me tell you, Cang The people of the family will never give in!" Her words were like a sharp sword, pointing directly at Sirius's heart, making him frown involuntarily. Although he didn't take Phoenix's words to heart, her tenacity and determination made him feel a little uneasy. However, this did not change his decision. He has already embarked on this path and there is no turning back.

Fenghuang stood in the hall of the Cang family, surrounded by the members of the Snow Wolf Death Soldiers who were once loyal to the Cang family, but now they all showed ferocious faces, and their betrayal was undisguised. Indescribable shock and anger surged in her heart, as if a fish bone was stuck in her throat. She wanted to say something, but she was so angry that she couldn't make a sound.

"Yan'er..." An old and trembling voice suddenly reached Phoenix's ears. Her delicate body trembled and she turned around slowly. I saw my father Cang Qu standing not far away, with tears streaming down his face, and his face full of helplessness and regret. The defense in Phoenix's heart collapsed instantly. She threw herself into her father's arms and choked with sobs: "Dad, why is this happening? Didn't you say they are all reliable?"

Cang Qu hugged his daughter tightly, with a bitter smile on his lips. He shook his head and said: "It's all my fault. It's all my fault for not listening to your advice, which led to today's situation of raising tigers!" His voice was full of self-blame and regret, as if every breath he took was filled with heavy guilt. feel.

Fenghuang's mother also came over. She stroked Fenghuang's hair with trembling hands. There was endless sadness in her voice: "Yan'er, all the valuables in the family have been taken over by Sirius and the others. If we hadn't refused to say anything, If you leave the hiding place of the spirit bead, you will probably be killed by them already!"
