That's not without reason, after all, phoenix eggs are a hot commodity.
Tianning did not deny her words, but said, "Now that Egg's family has come with helpers, are you planning to hand it over peacefully, or should we just fight it out and whoever wins takes Egg?"
Anyway, these three people's phoenix eggs were stolen, so it wouldn't be wrong for Ning to steal them again that day.
Meng Zhinian immediately pulled Meng Xian and said, "Brother Xian, we can't give her the egg! This is your own opportunity. In terms of strength, we won't lose!"
Lan Siran quickly agreed, saying, "Junior Brother, she's only at the Foundation Establishment stage. Giving the phoenix egg to her would be a complete waste."
“If she’s willing to communicate with us properly, then giving her more spirit stones and buying the phoenix egg wouldn’t be a bad idea. But if she insists on taking it, we won’t be so easy to reason with! After all…”
Lan Siran looked at Meng Xian with a serious expression and said, "We all know that this phoenix egg will greatly help your cultivation, Junior Brother!"
Lan Siran could tell that Meng Xian cared somewhat about the female cultivator named Tian Ning, so upon seeing the green peacock, according to moral standards, Meng Xian instinctively intended to return the phoenix egg. However, upon careful consideration of the pros and cons, was it really necessary to return the phoenix egg?
Cultivators aren't saints; what business is it of theirs if the other party didn't take good care of the phoenix egg?
Moreover, Lan Siran did not believe that Tian Ning, a Foundation Establishment cultivator, would be a match for the three of them. As long as Meng Xian was reluctant to part with the phoenix egg and their interests clashed, then the other party would not become a threat to her in the future!
They were the ones who stole the green peacock's egg in the first place. Meng Xian initially felt there was nothing wrong with giving it to Tian Ning, but the demonic cultivator's soul within his jade pendant also tried to dissuade him. A phoenix egg is something a cultivator might never see in their entire life; Meng Xian didn't need to be so morally conscious!
Just as Meng Xian hesitated, Lan Siran chuckled and said to Tian Ning, "Fellow Daoist, we obtained this unclaimed phoenix egg first, so it's ours! Unless the phoenix egg grows legs and runs away, we will not hand it over!"
She didn't even mention the possibility that Tianning might take the egg back; with three against one, the answer was obvious.
Tianning had originally intended to go, but the sound of fireworks exploding came from the sky in another direction of Panlong City. Tianning remembered that before they parted ways, they specifically told each other that if any accidents occurred, they should use the fireworks spell to send a signal into the sky.
Fireworks are like beautiful fireworks; although they are not very powerful, they are particularly eye-catching in the dark.
Normally, one use of the Fireworks spell is enough, but seeing the fireworks appearing one after another over there, it's clear they're in a real hurry!
The main objective this time is to deal with the system on Nian Ruoqing's body; wasting time here is pointless. Tianning simply called out "Chirp Chirp," and also told the green peacock to hold on tight to her later.
Green peacock: "?"
Lan Siran thought she was going to make a move, but instead, the gray sparrow on Tian Ning's head spat out a small flame and floated towards them.
Lan Siran: "..."
This guy was just boasting about taking back the phoenix eggs, and this is what he got?
However, right after that small flame appeared, the phoenix egg in Meng Xian's hand began to get hot, and the temperature of the egg kept rising. Because he had not formed a bond with the phoenix egg, Meng Xian did not know... that the phoenix egg was yearning for that ball of Phoenix Lord's Fire!
Fortunately, Meng Xian still sensed something was wrong. He didn't know what Tian Ning had done. The phoenix egg clearly showed no signs of being bound by a contract, yet it seemed to sense something at this moment.
Seeing this, Lan Siran intended to extinguish the flame with her sword imbued with spiritual energy. However, before the sword even fully touched the flame, it felt as if it were placed in a high-temperature forging platform, turning red-hot! It even began to melt...
How is that possible!
Before the three could think further, the phoenix egg in Meng Xian's hand, impatient for the flames to come to it, sprang to life, and the little phoenix inside eagerly flew over.
