Chapter 833 Clan Sacrifice
As time went by, Tianhuang City was gradually enveloped in an atmosphere of excitement, and many people became anxious, looking forward to the date of the competition to find a bride.
Qin Xuan, who was far away in the Demon Realm, knew nothing about the changes that had taken place in Tianhuang City. On this day, he and Qing Yu came to the foot of a mountain range.
Yuhuang Mountain is a very famous mountain range in the realm of the Divine Phoenix Clan. It is said to be the training place of a princess of the Divine Phoenix Clan.
Qin Xuan remembered that Qing Lao once said that Huo'er was the ninth princess of the Divine Phoenix Clan. Although he didn't know if she had practiced here, it would be better to come and find out.
"Do you really want to go up?" Qing Yu looked at Qin Xuan with a somewhat embarrassed look, seemingly unwilling.
"Of course, I am here just for her. No matter whether she is here or not, I have to go and take a look." Qin Xuan nodded.
After this period of inquiring, Qing Yu also learned from Qin Xuan the identity of Huo'er. She was actually a princess of the Divine Phoenix clan, with an extremely noble status.
Moreover, Qin Xuan claimed to be the elder brother of the princess, which made Qing Yu feel even more strange. Qin Xuan was from the human race, and that princess was from the Divine Phoenix tribe. Why was there a brother-sister relationship?
Of course, there were too many things involved. Qin Xuan didn't explain it to Qing Yu, so Qing Yu naturally didn't know.
"The princesses of the Divine Phoenix Clan have a very high status and are protected by many powerful people. If the princess above is not the one I am looking for and offends another princess, the consequences will be disastrous." Qing Yu explained. .
Qin Xuan's eyes showed a hint of thinking, and he replied: "Just be careful. I'm just going to have a look. Even if it's just a visit, there won't be any big problems."
Seeing that Qin Xuan was so persistent, Qing Yu couldn't persuade him anymore, so he nodded helplessly and said: "Okay, but you must promise me not to do anything casually."
The last time Qin Xuan killed Emperor Zhutian's generals had left a shadow in Qing Yu's heart, and he was afraid that Qin Xuan would do something outrageous, which might lead to an irreversible situation.
"Don't worry, am I that kind of person?" Qin Xuan smiled nonchalantly, then stepped forward and walked slowly towards the mountain.
Since we were going to visit, we naturally had to show enough sincerity and not fly up directly.
"I hope nothing happens." Qing Yu prayed in his heart and immediately followed.
When Qin Xuan and the two reached the mountainside, a violent sound of breaking through the air came from below. Qin Xuan raised his eyes and saw several figures walking through the air at extremely fast speeds and disappeared in a flash.
Because those figures flew directly up from above their heads, and the mountains were lined with ancient trees and were extremely dense, those people did not notice the two people climbing the mountain below.
Suddenly, Qin Xuan's eyes showed a strange look. Among the people who flew past just now, there was one whom he seemed to have seen somewhere.
"What's wrong?" Qing Yu couldn't help asking when he saw something wrong with Qin Xuan's face.
"It's nothing, maybe my perception is wrong." Qin Xuan waved his hand and said. He had only been in the Divine Phoenix Clan for a few days. It was impossible to meet anyone he knew here. It was most likely that his perception was wrong. After all, it was just a momentary feeling.
At this time, four young figures descended from the top of Jade Emperor Mountain. Each of them was extremely young, with outstanding temperament, and they all exuded a powerful aura.
These four people are all at the peak of the ninth level of King Yuan. Even among the Divine Phoenix Clan, they are considered to be good talents.
The four of them were seen stepping forward towards a pavilion in the center. As if they sensed someone approaching, suddenly several maids walked out of the pavilion and came to the four of them.
The four of them stopped, and one of them, a young man wearing a light blue robe, asked, "Is the little princess among them?"
"The little princess is talking to the teacher. We don't have time, so the four commanders should please go back." A maid said.
The leaders of the Divine Phoenix Clan have many leaders, divided into four levels: Heaven, Earth, Xuan, and Huang. The Heaven-level leaders are all at the peak level of emperors, the Earth-level leaders are at the middle-level emperor state, and the Xuan-level leaders are at the early level of emperors. realm, while the Huang-level commander is at the peak level of King Yuan.
The four young figures in front of him are all Huang-level commanders.
"Please report back to the little princess. Just say that I am waiting outside to see you. The sacrifice within the clan is very important. I hope the little princess will not put the cart before the horse." The young man said again, with a hint of pride in his tone.
After hearing the young man's words, the expressions of the maids all changed, and a trace of contempt flashed across their eyes as they looked at the young man. What a big tone, putting the cart before the horse?
"There is no need to reply. The princess has already given instructions not to see anyone." The maid said coldly, her tone not as polite as before, as if to express her dissatisfaction with the young man just now.
"You don't see anyone?" The four young people all frowned. Are you putting aside such an important event as the clan sacrifice to chat with an insignificant person?
The princess is too willful.
"As the princess's personal maids, you should know what clan sacrifice means. Whether the princess can become a goddess of the Divine Phoenix clan depends on this. If anything goes wrong, can you bear this responsibility?"
The young man spoke calmly, with a hint of pride on his face, as if he was born to be extraordinary and aloof.
"You can afford it, Xun Zheng, you think too highly of yourself!" The maid couldn't bear it anymore and finally said sarcastically.
The young man's expression suddenly froze, and then his face turned cold and said: "What are you talking about!"
The maid snorted coldly and said: "There are so many commanders in the clan who are half-stepping into the Yuanhuang realm. You shamelessly relied on your connections to get into the position of commander. You should be content, but you actually want to use this to have a relationship with the princess. It is simply a fool's dream!" "
After these words fell, Xun Zheng's face turned completely cold, a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and his eyes became extremely indifferent.
As the maid said, he did have a little inappropriate fantasy about the little princess, and he also knew that with his status, he was not worthy of the princess at all, so he could only create opportunities to make the princess fall in love with him over time.
However, although he did so, he never dared to make it public, so as not to cause others to laugh at him, and the maid just now actually revealed it, which was simply damnable.
"It's just nonsense. Everything I did was for the princess. If the clan sacrifice didn't have our help, do you think the princess could get the position of the goddess?" Xun Zheng stared at the maid and refuted sharply.
"That's right, although our realm is not as good as that of other half-step Yuanhuang leaders, this gap can be almost ignored. In the end, it still depends on the strength of talent." Another young man also echoed.
Although the other two did not speak, they looked at the maids with extremely arrogant eyes, and seemed very unhappy.
These three people are all good friends of Xun Zheng. In fact, to some extent, Xun Zheng has a great favor to these three people, so they help Xun Zheng so much.
"Shameless." A maid sneered, and she even had the nerve to say that it depends on the strength of talent. At the same age, they are only at the ninth level of Yuanhuang. Where is the talent?
"No matter what, we have to see the princess today. If you don't get out of the way, don't blame us for following the rules of the clan." Xun Zheng said lightly, and there was a bit of threat in his tone.
According to the rules of the Shenhuang clan, the commander has a certain right to kill first and report later, provided that the interests of the clan must be given priority.
The matter of the clan sacrifice is a big deal. If someone blocks it, they will suppress it, and no one will say anything.
"Are you crazy? The princess is inside. Are you going to force your way in?" The faces of several maids were all pale. Their cultivation was only at the sixth or seventh level of Yuanwang. If they wanted to force their way in, they couldn't stop them.
At this time, in the pavilion, a middle-aged man and a beautiful woman were sitting opposite each other, looking like a pair of master and apprentice.
This beautiful woman was the little princess of the Shenhuang clan.
At this time, the woman's eyebrows were furrowed, and there was a hint of displeasure in her beautiful eyes. Is she so presumptuous now?
"Go, don't worry about me, an outsider. I have already implicated you too much. The clan sacrifice is your only chance." The middle-aged man smiled gently, and the smile on his face was extremely gentle, as if harmless to humans and animals.
"No, teacher, I don't think so." The woman said stubbornly, "I know very well that even with their help, I can't beat others, so it's better to give up on my own initiative."
"This is not like your character." The middle-aged man smiled and shook his head, jokingly: "In my impression, my precious apprentice will not be afraid of any difficulties he encounters. Why has it changed now?
"This is simply impossible. "The woman shook her head, a trace of despair flashed in the depths of her eyes. Even if there was only a glimmer of opportunity, she would fight for it, but she knew that she didn't even have a glimmer of opportunity.
Outside the pavilion, Xun Zheng saw that there was no response from inside the pavilion, and he had understood something. He said loudly: "It seems that the princess is not very sober at this time, and we can't help but be presumptuous. "
"I said I don't want to see you, don't you understand?" A cold voice came from the pavilion, it was the woman's voice.
Xun Zheng's eyes flashed with a sharp color, and he said: "I hope the princess will come out to see us. We want to discuss the clan sacrifice with the princess."
After a moment, another voice came out: "I don't plan to participate in the clan sacrifice, and you don't have to discuss it with me. "
When these words came out, Xun Zheng and the other three were shocked. Give up the clan sacrifice?
How important is the clan sacrifice? It is a major event of the Phoenix Clan once a hundred years. It concerns the final destination of the goddess. How can we give it up?
"Princess..." Xun Zheng wanted to say something, but the woman interrupted him coldly: "Isn't what I said clear enough? You want me to come out and send you off in person?"
Anyone can hear that the princess is angry. Even Xun Zheng didn't dare to say anything more at this time.
He has been secretly in love with the princess for many years and knows the princess's character very well. She seems gentle on the outside, but she is strong on the inside. Once her bottom line is touched, it is hard to imagine what will happen. It is likely to intensify the conflict between them, which he does not want to see.
