Chapter 225 - The Way to Bring Freak Back to Life (2)

“Exiled?” Leng Ruoxue was puzzled. Only criminals would be exiled, right? Did the Dragon and Phoenix clans of the Ling Feng Continent commit crimes?

“There was a traitor in the Phoenix clan, and the Phoenix King bloodline was exiled. I was only an egg when I was sent to this world.

“Back then, the Phoenix King was sealed, and the clan members who supported him were all exiled to various worlds. I was the youngest son of the Phoenix King, and after I was born, the clan members of this world supported me to become king.

“We live in this world. However, not only are our strengths limited, but we are also unable to ascend to the Upper Realm. However, the high priest of the Phoenix clan once prophesied that ‘Our Phoenix clan will have a new master, and she will also be the savior of our Phoenix clan’. You are our new master,” Feng Zhan explained.

“Are you sure?” Leng Ruoxue asked lightly, but she kept communicating with Qing Jue in her heart.

“Qing Jue, do you know about the great war one hundred thousand years ago?” Leng Ruoxue asked curiously.

“Big Sister, the great war one hundred thousand years ago should be referring to the time Old Master died,” Qing Jue said sadly. Old Master has been dead for one hundred thousand years. Boohoo…

“In that case, it’s possible that this Phoenix King was from the same world as Master?” Leng Ruoxue couldn’t be sure if what Feng Zhan said was true.

“The Phoenix clan is a very large race and was very powerful in the world where Old Master was. They were one of the four kings under the Beast God. But I’m not sure as to whether or not there was a traitor among the Phoenix clan,” Qing Jue said after carefully recalling.

“Qing Jue, do you think the Phoenix King’s words are trustworthy?” Leng Ruoxue asked.

“The Phoenix King should be telling the truth,” Qing Jue said after tilting his head in thought for a while.

“Okay.” Leng Ruoxue severed the connection after communicating with Qing Jue in her head.

“The high priest once said that a woman would save our Phoenix clan.” Feng Zhan looked at Leng Ruoxue and nodded with certainty.

“Phoenix King, there are many women in this world. Are you sure that it’s me?” Leng Ruoxue asked coldly.

“Miss Leng, there are indeed many women in the world, but not all of them can come to the Phoenix clan.” Feng Zhan smiled mysteriously.

“Phoenix King, stop keeping me in suspense. I won’t agree unless you tell me clearly,” Leng Ruoxue said coldly. She didn’t want to be used by others.

“Miss Leng, I’m telling the truth. The new master mentioned in the high priest’s prophecy is indeed you!” Feng Zhan said with certainty.

“Many people don’t know why the Phoenix clan and the Dragon clan rarely travel on the Ling Feng Continent. Does Miss Leng want to know?” Feng Zhan asked with a smile.

“Could there be something else?” Leng Ruoxue guessed.

“Yes, because there is a barrier outside Grief Remedy Forest that limits our movement. Uh, what I mean is that the members of the Phoenix clan who have advanced to divine beasts are unable to appear alone on the Ling Feng Continent unless they have a master. Similarly, people outside are unable to come to the Phoenix Nest. Even if someone passes through the barrier, they are unable to pass through Grief Remedy Forest safely. Miss Leng and the others are the only humans who have been able to come to the Phoenix Nest for the past tens of thousands of years,” Feng Zhan explained the reason to Leng Ruoxue.

“But you can’t just assume that I’m your new master, can you? Doesn’t the Phoenix clan exist in every world?” Leng Ruoxue continued asking her doubts.

“I was exiled to this world with the mission of finding the new master of the Phoenix clan because the high priest said that the new master of the Phoenix clan would appear in the lower dimensions.” Feng Zhan sighed. He had waited for so long before she finally arrived. But this new master seemed to be of strong character and was determined not to be moved by temptation.

“Since your high priest is so powerful, why didn’t he predict that there would be a traitor in the Phoenix clan?” Leng Ruoxue asked in puzzlement. She had never believed in prophecies; she only believed in herself.

“No prophecy can predict what is related to you or things beyond your authority, so the high priest was helpless. After all, the people involved in the war back then had extraordinary identities,” Feng Zhan said simply. Even though he was not born yet, he knew a little about the war.

“You are limited by the barrier. What about the Dragon clan? Why can they go to the Ling Feng Continent to capture someone?” Leng Ruoxue was puzzled. Wasn’t the Dragon Clan exiled like the Phoenix clan?

“The Dragon clan is different from us. The barrier is much less restrictive on the Dragon clan than on the Phoenix clan,” Feng Zhan said with some indignation. It was really too unfair. They were kept here and not allowed to leave just because they could spit fire, while the dragons could leave, even though there was a restriction on the time and number.

“Phoenix King, you said that I’m your new master, but I’m only a Spiritual Supremacy and weak now. I’m afraid…” Leng Ruoxue hesitated. She didn’t want the Phoenix King to have too much hope and treat her as their savior, so she decided to give him forewarning.

“Master, we’re not in a hurry. We have waited for so long. Moreover, time is nothing to the Phoenix clan,” Feng Zhan consoled hurriedly. Of course, he knew that Leng Ruoxue definitely wouldn’t be able to lead them in rebuilding their glory with her current strength. But they had plenty of time, so they could wait.

“That’s good.” Leng Ruoxue seemed to be at ease, but she couldn’t help worrying in her heart. He already started calling her master even though she didn’t seem to have agreed?

“Master, then let’s choose a time to contract!” Feng Zhan said impatiently.

“Okay.” Leng Ruoxue felt like she was being forced into a corner. But she knew that contracting with the Phoenix clan would be very beneficial for her, but nonetheless…

“Phoenix King, I don’t want to contract with the entire Phoenix clan,” Leng Ruoxue said after some thought.

“Master, why is this so?” Feng Zhan asked with a bitter face. Did some idiot from the Phoenix clan offend her? He had already warned his clan that Leng Ruoxue was a distinguished guest, so they had to treat her well!

“I want some of the Phoenix clan to contract with my subordinates.” Leng Ruoxue revealed the plan that she had been brewing.

“Master, how about this? You contract the entire Phoenix clan first. As for the contract beasts for your subordinates, I’ll take care of it,” Feng Zhan said after some thought. It was not that he disliked his master’s subordinates. But he thought that it would cause some of the clan members to feel that their master despised them if she didn’t contract with all of them. As the king of the Phoenix clan, he naturally had to consider the interests of his own clan.
