The silver-white dragon suddenly shrank, transforming into a handsome man dressed in green. His long, black hair was tied back with a golden ribbon, and a faint smile graced his incomparably handsome face. His golden eyes, like amber placed in water, shone with captivating brilliance.
The Dragon Clan's eldest prince, Tianyin, stood in the sky, radiating an oppressive aura. His golden eyes looked towards the Brahma Sacred Fruit, and he smiled:
"The Sacred Fruit of Brahma, I never expected it to grow in a place like this."
As he spoke, he reached out and saw a silver-white dragon claw phantom appear in the void, about to pluck the golden Burning Saint Fruit.
Just then, a clear phoenix cry rang out. Suddenly, the clouds in the sky scattered with colorful light, and a crack appeared in the sky. Two huge crimson-gold claws emerged from the crack and tore open the sky, creating an exaggerated crack that was hundreds of thousands of feet long.
A colossal nine-colored phoenix flew out from the crack. The phoenix was surrounded by dazzling celestial light, and every feather was extremely beautiful. In particular, its long plumes were even more dazzling in color. As soon as the phoenix appeared, the entire sky and earth were illuminated in color. The people of the Phoenix Clan were all excited when they saw the nine-colored phoenix.
"It's the young emperor!"
"It's His Highness the Young Emperor!!"
After letting out a long cry, the nine-colored phoenix shattered the illusory image of Tianyin's dragon claw, and then shrank in size, transforming into a girl dressed in colorful clothes.
The girl in colorful clothes wore a light blue dress with phoenix totems embroidered on the hem. Colorful ribbons were wrapped around her slender waist and jade-white arms. Her jet-black hair was adorned with colorful gemstones, and she wore a gold necklace inlaid with phoenix stones. Her appearance was stunning, radiant, and dazzling, leaving all who saw her in awe of her beauty.
The visitor was none other than A Yao.
More than 10,000 years ago, Feng Wu returned to the Immortal Emperor Realm, killed her younger sister to avenge herself, and then returned to the Phoenix Clan with A Yao.
Not long after, A Yao abandoned her human body in the Phoenix Clan's ancestral temple and rebuilt her body with the blood of the Phoenix Clan's ancestor, completely reincarnating as a nine-colored phoenix. Then, Feng Wu conferred upon her the title of "Young Emperor"—the next female emperor of the Phoenix Clan—and bestowed upon her the title of Holy Maiden of the Phoenix Clan.
With the Causal Mirror in hand, A Yao fought against several Immortal Emperors. With such a record, who in the Phoenix Clan would not acknowledge her as the Young Emperor?
Now, the young people of the Phoenix Clan can't help but show their fervent admiration when they see her. Even though A Yao is now a Taiyi Golden Immortal, she dares to fight Immortal Emperors even in the Earth Immortal Realm, and not just one. Not to mention the Daluo Golden Immortals and Immortal Kings whose cultivation is higher than hers, even other Immortal Emperors don't dare to underestimate her.
After arriving here, A Yao first glanced at the Burning Saint Fruit, and then looked at Tian Yin.
Others may not know that he is Luo Bai's clone, but A Yao knows it perfectly well.
"I'll take this fruit," Ayao said, crossing her arms and looking at Tianyin.
Ever since she was reborn as a phoenix, Luo Bai has frequently caused her trouble. For over ten thousand years, A Yao has been tricked by him countless times. Originally feeling guilty towards Luo Bai, A Yao's guilt has long since faded. Looking at Luo Bai's avatar, Tianyin, A Yao now just wants to beat him up and avenge the time he tormented her years ago.
"To declare ownership right off the bat is too domineering. Unclaimed property belongs to whoever grabs it." Tianyin chuckled, his smile as gentle as a spring breeze, just like Luo Bai's.
Seeing him move so quickly, A Yao reached the Burning Saint Fruit and reached out to pick it. With a thought, golden light enveloped her, and a gleaming suit of golden armor appeared on her body. After donning the armor, her cultivation level skyrocketed, instantly rising from the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm to the Immortal King realm.
This armor is not the Kunpeng King Armor, but one of the two ancestral armors of the Phoenix Clan.
Tianyin had already picked the Sacred Fruit, and Ayao flashed in front of him, reaching out to snatch it. Tianyin immediately teleported tens of thousands of miles away, and Ayao flapped her phoenix wings, instantly also reaching tens of thousands of miles away. The two of them fought while fighting for the fruit, and then disappeared without a trace.
After their prince disappeared, Feng Tianhua and the other phoenixes, along with Nian Rou and the other dragons, stared at their sworn enemies across the way, exchanging murderous glances.

boom!
A figure fell from the sky to the ground. Amidst the billowing dust, a man in blue robes stood up from the giant crater. The man's appearance was perfect. He looked up at the girl in the sky.
The girl was stunningly beautiful. Holding a golden fruit in her hand, she tossed it into her storage space right in front of the man, revealing a smug smile.
"You have no conscience! You cheated me out of so many things, and you still have the nerve to try and steal the Sacred Fruit from me." Tianyin looked hurt.
"This fruit isn't of much use to you, since you already have something as good as the Chaos Lotus. Do you really even care about this?" Ayao said.
“Even if it can’t compare to the Chaos Green Lotus, it’s still a rare and precious treasure. Who would complain about having too much good stuff? When you plundered the Langhuan Secret Realm, you didn’t complain about having too much stuff either,” Tianyin said.
Hearing his words, Ayao blushed and felt a little embarrassed. She tried to argue, "I...I did leave some for you too..."
The more he spoke, the softer his voice became, because he lacked confidence.
But she quickly regained her composure and looked at Tianyin, saying, "Anyway, I have a use for this fruit, so I won't give it to you."
After Ayao finished speaking, she thought Tianyin would fight her. She was already prepared to fight, but she saw that Tianyin didn't say anything and just turned around and flew into the sky.
As she gazed at his retreating figure, she suddenly realized that she hadn't seen Luo Bai's true form for over ten thousand years. For all those ten thousand years, she had only seen Luo Bai's avatars—either Tianyin, Sichen, Wushuang, or other avatars.
Ayao had a feeling that something had happened to Luo Bai, so she said, "Wait!"
The man, who had already flown into the air, stopped and turned to look at her.
Ayao looked at Tianyin's face, opened her mouth, but ultimately couldn't say anything. They were enemies, sworn enemies. Now that she had been reborn as a phoenix, their relationship was destined to be the same as in her past life—completely doomed. Moreover, more than ten thousand years ago, she had already resolutely rejected him, so what did his affairs have to do with her?
"What does Your Highness Feng Yao want to say?" Tianyin asked with a smile.
Ayao lowered her head. Seeing her like this, Tianyin's smile gradually disappeared. He turned around and tore open a spatial rift, transforming into a stream of light that shot into the rift and vanished. Not long after, the rift in the sky closed, leaving only a gentle breeze blowing, causing Ayao's gauze dress to flutter.
Ayao's eyes held a hint of melancholy. She raised her hand, and a golden Burning Saint Fruit appeared in her palm. After staring at the fruit for a few moments, the sadness and melancholy in her eyes vanished.
Stop thinking about it. You made the decision, so don't regret it.
