Chapter 1226 Silver Fox and Fire Phoenix
The Phoenix Clan is also a powerful group among the demon clan. The king of the clan came here in person. It is rare that he was so low-key throughout the whole process. For a moment, he naturally became the focus of attention of the audience.
In addition, he and the Flame Ghost Emperor are both based on fire attribute techniques. The two of them stand here at the same time, one is better than the other with the scorching flame gauze dress, which also raises the temperature in the room a lot.
Behind the Phoenix King, there was a petite girl with two rabbit ears above her head, and she was drooping a little tired. Her eyes were always staring at her toes and did not dare to look at others easily.
"Yunning!" Duanmu Zhi was secretly shocked. Isn't the girl in front of him the one who had lost contact for no reason before? What happened to her just now, and why did she get together with Feng Wang?
Yu Ning did not meet his sight, and the Fengwang obviously did not intend to answer questions for others. He looked at the Fiery Flame who met with his peers and smiled.
"My friend Lieyan is indeed very sensible and recognizes me as an old man at a glance."
Guests who have plans will naturally find out the identities of other important guests first. There are probably people in the VIP room today that cannot be hidden from him. He also believes that one of the dignified ghost emperors in the four directions must have known about his existence long ago.
"Young friend, don't be polite. After all, this time, I'm asking for you." Then, he waved his hand gently, not only not relying on his identity, but also lowered his attitude a little.
The strong are respected. In terms of age, although he is a senior, the current strength and status of the Flame Ghost Emperor are absolutely qualified to be on par with him.
"I think my friend has guessed some points. I came here to tears for the phoenix."
The onlookers also guessed at this time that it seemed that the hidden boss who suddenly exerted his strength in the later stage of the Phoenix Tears auction and was fighting with Lie Yan was him.
Lieyan did not express his opinion. He maintained a "slow-hearted" expression, but others could not guess his thoughts.
The Fengwang sighed lightly and spoke slowly, "Everyone knows that the phoenix tears are the relics of an ancestor of my phoenix clan—"
"Ancestor was amazing back then and was once known as the first person to "the most hopeful revitalize the tribe". Unfortunately, she was deceived by a traitor and lost her life. This is a big hatred for my Phoenix clan."
"At that time, our clan could not save the life of our ancestors, nor could he avenge her, so he let her relics go out... It was not until today that he got the clue. As a junior, he really could not see the phoenix tears falling into the hands of others, becoming a spell, and destroying the reputation of our ancestors..."
Whether it is human race or foreign race or the predecessors of a generation, they are often the most respected by the clan members. If there are external humiliations and ancestors, even if it leads to a ethnic war, it is not impossible.
The tragic past related to our ancestors has become a topic of talk that is passed down through the tears of the phoenix. Now we have to say it in public, and the pain and shame can be imagined.
Any strong man with a family behind him can best understand this mood. The balance in their hearts can't help but tilt a little towards the Phoenix King.
"Of course, I know that this is difficult. No matter what request my friend Lieyan makes, as long as I can do it, I will do my best to compensate." A trace of deep depression and pain flashed in the eyes of the Fengwang. In front of all the onlookers, he deeply lowered his head, which had always been proud.
"Only this Phoenix Tears, please ask Lieyan to...bear the pain of giving up love!"
He bowed again, his voice squeaking: "Please ask you!"
At the same time, the glory and dignity of the king of a clan are also the grace.
After a brief silence in the field, a series of heated discussions suddenly erupted.
Some people think that the phoenix tears are originally objects of the phoenix clan, and it is natural to seek the relic of ancestors.
Some people also think that since this thing has been lost for thousands of years, whoever picks it up will belong to it. The Flame Ghost Emperor also took it with money, so he just gave it to him.
There are also a group who understand it very clearly. Anyway, neither the Phoenix King nor the Flame Ghost Emperor can afford to provoke him. No matter how they fight, they just need to watch the fun.
As for whether he gave up bidding during the official auction, whether he was stingy about money and deliberately playing the emotional card, Feng Wang did not respond much.
In order to get back Phoenix Tears, it is false to spend much money. He mainly felt that there was no end to competition in the auction hall, so he simply gave up early and went to the backstage to do this "fixed" transaction.
Whether it is money or barter, as long as the flames open their mouths, he will follow them.
Lieyan pondered for a while, and spoke in a little distressed manner in the sights that were coming from all directions.
"Before the auction, I didn't know that Phoenix Tears had this origin. But if I didn't pay attention to it, I would never be willing to bid at a sky-high price."
"I sympathize with the ancestors of the Phoenix clan, but unfortunately I am not a person who will abandon principles just for sympathy. You really say there is something that can replace Phoenix Tears... Sorry, I couldn't think of it for the moment."
Although this passage is polite, the meaning of rejection is still obvious.
The Phoenix King was inevitably a little surprised. The most important thing about the phoenix tears to the phoenix clan is the memorial significance, and it also affects the dignity of the ancestors. The phoenix clan is willing to pay no matter how much the price they pay. But what reason can there be for an outsider... that must not be given up?
"Then... I wonder why Lieyan's friend value Phoenix Tears so much?" With doubts, the Phoenix King also asked tentatively, "If you say it, maybe we can find a way to replace it together?"
The flame sighed long, as if he was carefully considering the sentence: "How to say it, I want the phoenix tears, not only for myself, but also because it is related to a period of 'cause and effect'."
"A friend from the ghost world risked being punished by heaven and revealed some of the premonitions in the horoscope to me in advance. Phoenix Tears is indeed not to return to the Phoenix Clan for the time being... Otherwise, it is very likely that something destined to be a cause and condition will be messed up."
"Of course, it's yours that are always yours. When the time comes, I will naturally return the phoenix tears without saying anything."
It is not appropriate to be told by outsiders that the destiny of heaven is not to be told by others. Then, he stopped talking and directly sent a voice to the Phoenix King.
The onlookers looked puzzled. Why did this become more and more mysterious? His meaning seemed to be that he held the phoenix tears in his hands to follow the way of heaven and to balance the overall situation of the world.
If we say this, wouldn’t everyone use the same excuse in the future? Even if they kill people, they can say that this person has ended their lifespan and I am just collecting it on behalf of the ghost messenger. If this is the case, wouldn’t the world be in chaos?
It is absurd to ordinary people, but when the Fengwang heard the sound transmission of the flames, his face became serious.
Only those who have reached this level will know that although the way of heaven is vague, it really exists. Although no one can see it, it controls everyone at all times. It monitors the changes in the world and the reproduction of Taoist fruits.
It would be fine if you don’t know it. If you know the secret of heaven and forcefully go against the sky, you will be punished by the way of heaven.
For those of them, they need to understand the laws and communicate with the way of heaven when they advance. If they are disliked by the "rules", they may end up at the peak of the Tongtian Realm for life.
The process of divine consciousness transmission is very short, and a single thought can communicate for dozens of rounds. Therefore, to others, it seems that it is only a moment, but the two of them seem to have already agreed.
"Thank you, Senior Feng Wang, for the huge amount." Lieyan gave a smile, "To express his apology, I would like to offer a fire-type treasure to pave the way for the Feng Clan to practice."
"That was the 'Eternal Flame Crown' I got in a dangerous place not long ago. The flames burned for many years and were extremely yang and fierce, which was of great benefit to the fire-attribute monks."
The Phoenix King nodded and smiled, and said a few more words to each other. It seemed that this "Eternal Flame Crown" would be used as collateral and temporarily stored in the Phoenix Clan. When will the Flame exchange the Phoenix Tears for exchange before the item can be retrieved.
With the help of the energy of the flame crown, the Feng Clan's cultivation will be twice the result with half the effort in the future. Perhaps within a few years, a large number of powerful demon sects will emerge again. He has helped the clan so much. I believe that if the ancestor knew about it, he would not blame him again.
Unexpectedly, a dispute was resolved so easily. After the two of them exchanged a brief greeting, Lieyan and Huoyan left first. When they left, they also took away a large number of onlookers.
Duanmu Zhi was secretly disappointed, and the Fengwang who was still staying in the room suddenly turned to him.
"This little friend is a friend of the Silver Fox clan, right?"
Yu Ning also raised his head at this time and echoed excitedly: "It was Senior Feng King who saved me just now. Senior Feng King is really kind!"
The Fengwang laughed and touched her head: "You're welcome. You're almost the same age as my soon-to-be-married daughter. I'm so fond of love."
"What's more, this is in the territory of the human race... Our demon race must take care of each other."
The man who deceived and betrayed the ancestor of the Phoenix clan back then seemed to be a human cultivator. This also led to the Phoenix clan's subsequent treatment of humans and more resentment than other demon clans.
Duanmuzhi also reacted quickly. Although he was still confused in his eyes, he still gave a hurried salute: "Although I don't know what happened... I, Daiyu Ning, thanked Senior Feng Wang for help."
The Phoenix King nodded, and looked at him with deep eyes, as if he had some memories that spanned time and space.
"A thousand years ago, the Phoenix Clan owed a relationship with the Silver Fox Clan... After that, the two tribes, which were originally as close as a family, had a rift and had not had any contact for many years. Sometimes I think about it, but I feel so uneasy..."
"After a while, it will be a happy day for the little girl to marry into the Fire Phoenix Clan. I hope that all the friends of the Silver Fox Clan can also come here to enjoy the glory. It just so happens that the opportunity will repair the friendship between the two tribes. I wonder what my friends think?"
Duanmuzhi agreed embarrassedly: "It's... the invitation from my senior, I will definitely convey the tribe members on my behalf."
After pondering for a while, as if he had made some struggle in his heart, he spoke seriously: "In fact, it is not a question of reluctance... The main reason is that the kind of ethnic group is connected with the kind of ethnic group. Just like what humans say, "The weak race has no diplomacy."
"For thousands of years, our Silver Fox Clan has been declining, and the demon clan in the world has seen it. The development of the Phoenix Clan is thriving again. Once the gap in strength is widened, there will naturally be no friendship..." He thrust his lips with a self-deprecating feeling, "Our Silver Fox Clan is just self-knowledge."
"What are you saying? Didn't you mean to make me feel uncomfortable?" The phoenix king shook his head in pain. Every word Duanmuzhi said lightly revealed the vicissitudes of the Silver Fox clan, and it was like a dull knife that kept cutting his heart.
From the decline of a powerful clan overnight, the pain can be imagined, but they always endure and choose to bear the hostility from the outside world alone, but never ask the Phoenix clan...their former Eight Blessings Friends.
They are ashamed of themselves and do not want to drag down the Feng Clan. It is a pity that the Feng Clan has always narrowly thought that they are remembering the revenge they had been a thousand years ago...
"What's more, the decline of the Silver Fox Clan also had our Phoenix Clan's responsibility back then... At that time, we indulged in the early death of our ancestors, and we all mourned us. We failed to do our best to help the Silver Fox Clan. This is also our sin..."
Duanmu Zhi responded vaguely. He might not have the right to talk about the grudges that were a thousand years ago. But since he was born, he knew very well what life his tribe members lived. As a royal family, not only would they not have any privileges, but they were just a heavier burden on them. If it were a thousand years ago... it would not have been like this...
At first, he did complain about the Phoenix Clan. But since he heard the allusion of Phoenix Tears and began to have a vague guess in his heart, he suddenly didn't know who to blame. If everything that happened back then was because of the patriarch... was trapped by love and suffered by himself, then what did their descendants do wrong?
"It looks like it, it looks like it." After a while, the Phoenix King looked at his face and suddenly muttered to himself in a daze.
"I wonder if my friend, who is the descendant of the previous generation?"
Duanmu Zhi smiled dryly, held the grand gift of his juniors again, and bowed solemnly.
"My younger generation, Duanmuzhi, the prince of the Silver Fox Clan, has met Senior Phoenix King."
"So it's the Silver Fox Royal Family!" The Fengwang exclaimed lightly, and a hint of sigh flashed in his eyes, "It's no wonder... No wonder when I saw you, I remembered the Silver Fox Chief back then. As descendants of the same lineage, your appearance is really similar... Alas, how outstanding he was at that time, if he could be with our ancestors..."
When he talked about the old things, he couldn't help but shook his head and sighed: "It's better not to talk about it or not."
"Anyway, in the future, I'm afraid that the burden of the Silver Fox clan will be on your shoulders. It's good to come out and try it out first."
Duanmu Zhi laughed dryly, but didn't say much. After hearing what Feng Wang said, he really thought that he was here to work and practice.
"However, the auction site is not very peaceful recently... The minions of the evil god's way seem to have spread here."
However, the next words of Feng Wang seemed to be a warning or a feeling of emotion made him suddenly stunned, and his thoughtful gaze quickly turned to Yu Ning.
