At this moment, Fahai was like a stray dog, which fully demonstrated a principle to everyone.

Being the sixth person in line comes at a price.

Phoenix was furious and only wanted to kill the audacious monk in front of her as soon as possible.

This is understandable. After all, if a monk weighing over 200 pounds suddenly takes off his clothes and performs a ritual in front of a woman, it would be an eyesore for anyone, and everyone would want to slap him.

"Amitabha! You damn well better come and save this humble monk! This humble monk doesn't want to become immortal so soon!"

Fahai couldn't understand why the group of six men not far away would do something like "severely attacking their teammates," especially Dugu Xin and the other two, who actually had the leisure to sit and eat sunflower seeds.

Watching Fahai and Phoenix chasing each other, Dugu Xin suddenly said, "How could this woman have fallen for someone else so quickly? She won't even let a monk go?"

Hu Guangshan: "As the saying goes, women are fickle creatures. One moment they are pestering the Grand Elder, and the next they are with a monk. They even pursue him. It's too wonderful and profound."

Zhang Danfeng: "So, should we step in and help that monk, and just let this ill-fated couple be together?"

Dugu Xin shrugged: "As the saying goes, even an upright official finds it hard to settle family disputes. As the future chief law enforcement elder of the Seven-Colored Saint King Rock, we shouldn't interfere in this matter. Let it be."

"Elder, your insight is brilliant."

"We admire you."

In short, these three old men can be summed up in one word: coward.

However, while some people are cowardly, others are not and will truly step up when necessary.

"Master Fahai, step back immediately!"

Holding a lone goose, Su Yunying transformed into a beam of light and shot straight at the phoenix, buying time for Fahai to escape.

"Mistress, you mustn't go into battle!"

Ji Bingyan was so frightened that his heart almost broke. When he saw Su Yunying actually taking the initiative to greet a quasi-emperor, his heart jumped into his throat.

In the void, Su Yunying and Fahai passed each other for a split second, and Su Yunying thrust her spear directly at the phoenix.

"Where did this brat come from? Get out of here!"

The phoenix let out a thunderous roar, like the cry of a phoenix from the heavens, causing a surge of qi and blood within Su Yunying's body.

However, the phoenix's long cry activated the Xuanhuang bloodline within its body.

In an instant, the Blazing Phoenix burst forth, letting out a passionate cry towards the phoenix.

"Hmm? The Xuanhuang bloodline?"

When the phoenix saw the phantom of the Xuanhuang appearing in the void, it was taken aback.

Then he slowly looked at Su Yunying.

"you……"

The moment Phoenix saw Su Yunying, she abruptly withdrew the palm strike she had unleashed, and with a flash, retreated a hundred paces away.

Su Yunying was somewhat surprised when her shot missed. Seeing that the perfect opportunity to attack had passed, she decisively used the Water Wind Step to levitate and walk in the air.

At this moment, Phoenix was trembling uncontrollably, and her deep pupils behind the mask stared at Su Yunying in disbelief.

"May I have your name?"

"Young Master of Qifeng Mountain, Su Yunying!"

Su Yunying's reply was firm and powerful, her spear pointed at the phoenix, showing no sign of backing down despite her opponent being a quasi-emperor.

“Su Yunying… Yunying…”

Phoenix murmured her name softly.

"Mistress!"

Ji Bingyan shouted loudly, fearing that Su Yunying might have a mishap, and immediately jumped in front of her.

Su Yunying absolutely cannot be harmed, otherwise she will have no way to explain herself to Shen Zhao.

After hesitating for a long time, the phoenix looked at the snow.

"Zhang Lie!"

When Phoenix saw Zhang Lie, her tone was tinged with disbelief.

"Who did this?"

"I!"

Su Yunying replied coldly.

"you?!"

Phoenix glanced at Su Yunying again, her trembling hands clenching into fists as she tried to remain calm.

"How is that possible? You're only at the Nirvana Realm... Wait... How old are you?"

Su Yunying frowned slightly. Phoenix's behavior had been very strange from the moment she arrived; she couldn't sense any hostility from her.

Why are you asking this?

"Answer me, how old are you?"

Su Yunying remained silent, while Ji Bingyan answered for him, "My mistress's reward requires a full month to reach nineteen months."

"Nineteen? That's right. I didn't expect you to have reached the seventh level of Nirvana cultivation at only nineteen years old. I really didn't expect that. Your future is incredibly bright."

Phoenix was filled with emotion, and then said, "I will not argue with you today, but I must take Zhang Lie with me."

"impossible!"

Su Yunying refused outright.

"Also, you have to stay!"

Phoenix was surprised at where Su Yunying got the confidence to say such things to her when she suddenly felt an overwhelming force coming from behind her.

She instinctively dodged to the side, and a high-grade Heavenly Rank boomerang just grazed past the phoenix mask.

With a crisp metallic snapping sound, the mask on the phoenix's face shattered instantly.

"Go~"

Phoenix immediately flicked its sleeves to cover its face, creating a gust of wind that forced everyone who approached back before transforming into a beam of light and disappearing into the distance.

By the time everyone came to their senses, the phoenix had already vanished without a trace.

Looking in the direction the phoenix had left, Su Yunying felt even more puzzled: "Strange, this woman seems... to know me?"

...

Phoenix fled hundreds of miles in one breath, and only when it was sure that no one was chasing it did it find a place to rest for the time being.

"Yunying, it's Yunying. She's grown up and become a beautiful young woman."

Suluo, I've seen our daughter, there's no mistake, absolutely no mistake.

However, I was too ashamed to see her. I was seriously injured back then and could only entrust her to my second sister.

If she knew I abandoned her back then, she would definitely hate me…

The phoenix wept with joy.
