C880 High priest
"High Priest is out."
The gazes of the crowd shifted in a certain direction, only to see a figure slowly walking out from the depths of Divine Phoenix Mountain. That figure looked extremely old and his body was inclined slightly, appearing as though he was in his late years.
However, no one dared to underestimate him in the slightest, even the experts of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan who had come earlier could feel how terrifying the strength of this Divine Phoenix Clan was from that voice alone.
Despite being separated by such a great distance, he was still able to release such a powerful pressure. His strength was simply terrifying.
Gradually, an old man with white hair walked over. He looked at the expert from the Sky Phoenix Clan with cloudy eyes, and asked indifferently: "Which elder is leading the Sky Phoenix Clan this time?"
"It's me." A figure walked out from within the group of Heavenly Phoenix Clan experts, the eyes of the crowd were fixated on him, only to see that this person's appearance was ordinary, and looked like an ordinary person, without the slightest bit of extraordinary bearing, he was actually an elder of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan?
High Priest's eyes landed on the elder's body, he nodded slightly and said: "Oh, so it's Elder Tianmu, please take a seat."
"Thank you, High Priest." This made the Divine Phoenix Clan and the rest puzzled. Weren't you being very arrogant just now, why did you suddenly seem like a different person?
High Priest seemed to have discovered something, a sharp light flashed across his eyes, but he did not say it out, and said to the crowd in a clear voice: "Today is the Divine Phoenix Clan's Sacrificial Ceremony, regardless of which clan's guests come, we need to warmly welcome them, and do not have any conflicts with them."
"Yes." Divine Phoenix Clan said in unison.
But when the Heavenly Phoenix Clan powerhouses heard this, their faces turned black, they could not afford to clash with him? Then what happened before?
Even the High Priest had personally taken action against them. Was this how the Divine Phoenix Clan treated guests?
What they did not know was that they seemed to have subconsciously forgotten the attitude they had taken in the beginning as they descended upon the Divine Phoenix Clan. They were arrogant and powerful, but now they were blaming the Divine Phoenix Clan for not treating them well, which was rather laughable.
"Ice Phoenix Clan is here to pay a visit!" A voice filled with an icy aura came from the distance. It was as if the temperature of the world had dropped by a lot.
Many people inexplicably felt a chill on their bodies. As they looked over, they saw numerous silver-white ice phoenixes flying over with incomparably sharp eyes. An extremely cold intent emanated from their bodies as a terrifying ice storm seemed to gather between the heaven and earth.
Endless ice and wind attributed spiritual energy mixed together, rampaging crazily. The tornados that was standing in the air became stronger and stronger, destroying everything in the direction of the Divine Phoenix Mountain.
"Presumptuous!" The eyes of the crowd flashed with a sharp light, a terrifying anger surfaced on their faces. The Heavenly Phoenix Clan was only being arrogant with their words, yet the Ice Phoenix Clan dared to make a move, did they really think that there was no one left in the Divine Phoenix Clan?
It was obvious that the actions of the Ice Phoenix Race members had aroused a great dissatisfaction from all over the Divine Phoenix Clan. Today, it was their Divine Phoenix Clan that was holding a sacrificial ceremony.
"Looks like the Ice Phoenix Clan has been at peace for a very, very long time." High Priest muttered to himself. He looked at the people from the Divine Phoenix Clan below and asked casually: "Is there anyone willing to welcome the Ice Phoenix Clan's guests?"
This man looked extremely young, as though he was only twenty or thirty years old. In reality, he had been cultivating for more than ten thousand years, and was a Middle Rank of Monarch Stage Ranker.
"It's Squire Su. Squire Su stepped into the Middle Rank of Monarch Stage a few thousand years ago and comprehended the Skyfire Avenue. He has quite a bit of insight into it and is extremely powerful." Someone said in a low voice, obviously extremely familiar with the purple-robed man who walked out.
High Priest looked at the purple-robed man and nodded his head. This man was the right person to welcome him.
"This humble one is untalented, and is willing to welcome you on behalf of the Divine Phoenix Clan." As he spoke, his eyes suddenly became extremely terrifying. An extremely terrifying might erupted from his body, and in an instant, a flame pressure that contained an Emperor's will swept out from behind him.
The pressure of the flames continued to spread outwards, colliding with the blizzard and emitting a violent explosion. Brilliant rays of light shot out in all directions, lighting up the entire sky and causing the spectators to feel fear and trepidation.
At this moment, a mix of flames and ice flowed in the air, as if they had fallen into a world of fire and water. The two powers seemed to have reached a stalemate, unable to get any stronger.
"As expected, the Divine Phoenix Clan s are as numerous as the clouds. The Ice Phoenix Clan is endlessly admiring them." A voice came out from the Ice Phoenix Clan members and the icy aura was then retracted. The ice storm also instantly exploded.
"Well done!" Ecstasy appeared on the faces of everyone in Divine Phoenix Clan. Their gazes were filled with admiration as they looked at Su Xiuya, and took the initiative to represent Divine Phoenix Clan in the battle, successfully forcing the Ice Phoenix Clan's people to retreat. This was simply saving face for the Divine Phoenix Clan.
Although the Ice Phoenix Clan's people were more decisive in their attacks than them, they were released from afar. This was to tell Divine Phoenix Clan that they were friendly with him, and that was why High Priest did not personally take action, and send another person over.
Furthermore, they should not have descended directly above the altar. This was a blasphemy to the Divine Phoenix Clan, to the point that the High Priest had personally made a move and did not leave any face for them.
"Please take a seat." High Priest said to the Ice Phoenix Family member.
"Thank you, High Priest." The leader of the Ice Phoenix Clan replied as he led the Ice Phoenix Clan members downwards in a grandiose manner.
When the Ice Phoenix Race members saw the people from the Heavenly Phoenix Clan below, they couldn't help but reveal expressions of astonishment. The Heavenly Phoenix Clan actually arrived earlier than them, just that, why did their expressions look so unsightly?
Could it be that something happened before this?
The leader of the Ice Phoenix Race had a deep look in his eyes as he faintly guessed something. His gaze fell onto a figure below as he smiled and asked, "Brother Tianmu, long time no see."
"Ice Infinite, if you have something to say, then just say it. There is no need to be so weird!" He had been in contact with the Icy Cave for many years, so he naturally knew what the other party was thinking about.
Icemountain glanced at Tianmu, and could tell from his expression and tone that his thoughts had been confirmed by quite a bit. He immediately revealed a smile and said, "There's nothing much to say."
"Humph!" Tianmu let out a cold snort, as if he was extremely displeased. The more Icemountain acted this way, the more humiliating it was to him.
More and more silhouettes arrived at the Divine Phoenix Mountain, only to see a row of silhouettes approaching. The person in the lead was a beautiful woman, elegant yet cold. She was none other than the Moon Cleansing Princess.
Behind her were many experts protecting her. They were all young people from the Divine Phoenix Clan, and they were all at the peak of the Yuan King. There were several people with Half-step Origin Emperor Stage at the peak realm, which could be said to be a powerful lineup.
Many people looked at the Moon Cleansing Princess with admiration. As the Eldest Princess, her cultivation and connections were both very good and she was a strong contender for the position of Goddess.
After the Pure Moon, Princess Feng Xuan and Princess Ling Shuang did not seem to be willing to fall behind either. Each of them brought about a number of powerful figures that occupied their respective positions, faintly displaying the might of a three-legged statue.
The three princesses exchanged glances as though they had agreed on a plan. Their beautiful eyes were filled with the intent of contending with each other, just like the declaration they made before the battle.
It was as if the battle for the Goddess was just a battle between the three of them.
After that, other princesses came, but they did not cause too much of a commotion. They hurried past, and the place they occupied was relatively close to the corner, so it was not able to attract much attention.
Just when the crowd's attention was focused on a few other places, a group of young silhouettes slowly walked over. These silhouettes appeared extremely peculiar. There were beautiful women, handsome men, and even a rough looking young man. Wild man... A group of people arrived at the same time, and it seemed as if they were incompatible.
These figures were naturally Huo Er, Qin Xuan and the others.
When they arrived, they immediately attracted the gazes of the crowd. When they saw Huo Er, everyone knew that he was Ninth Princess's team, but when they saw the people behind her, their expressions became strange.
"And here I thought she was some powerful person. So it turns out she was just a motley crowd. Is that why she was so confident?" Pure Moon looked at Qin Xuan and the others and laughed coldly. Originally, she was still a bit worried, but that worry had completely disappeared like smoke in thin air.
What could a motley crowd possibly do to be on the same level as the people she invited?
It was unknown what Pure Moon was thinking in her heart, but Feng Xuan and Ling Shuang were the same. The people they invited were all top geniuses from the Demon Clan, and regardless of their talent or strength, they were both extremely tyrannical.
At this time, even the other weaker princesses looked at Huo Er with a little contempt. They thought that the people Huo Er invited were extremely extraordinary, to actually be able to invite such a group of people, were all overestimating themselves.
They knew that it would be difficult to get their hands on the Goddess position, so they kept a relatively low profile and didn't dare to openly disobey the orders of Pure Moon and the others. However, the moment Huo Er returned, he beat up the people who Pure Moon Sect sent, and did what they wanted but didn't dare to do.
If Huo Er had been so overbearing in the past, they would not have been this jealous. However, he had only changed his mind after returning, which had left them feeling extremely unbalanced.
They were even a little regretful. Had they left earlier and found some strong individuals to back them up?
However, it was too late now, so they released all their jealousy and regret in their hearts onto Huo Er, hoping that she was the same as them, weaker than them.
And from the looks of it, that was indeed the case.
Feeling the gazes that came from all directions, Qin Xuan frowned slightly. He could feel the disdain and contempt in these gazes.
"In a moment, if there is a battle, tell me. Those people have enmity with you, and I'll avenge you." Qin Xuan smiled as he looked at Huo Er, his face filled with affection.
When Tai Long and the others heard this, they could not help but reveal a strange expression, faintly sensing that someone was about to be unlucky. If they were to be targeted by Qin Xuan, the consequences would be unbearable for anyone.
"Sure." Huo Er nodded her head obediently, looking at Pure Moon and the others with a hint of complacency, her beautiful eyes flashed with a cunning look.
They might still think that the person they invited is powerful even now, but after this, it would be too late for them to cry.
