Chapter 335 Ice Phoenix
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao smiled and said, "That's great! I was just worried that I wouldn't have anyone familiar with the place when I went to the Ancestral Dragon Continent."
Xuan Cang smiled wryly: "My benefactor, although I am indeed familiar with the Ancestral Dragon Continent, it is best if you do not get too close to us when you go there, because I was driven out by the Black Dragon Clan. If you get along well with me, it will be the same as offending the Black Dragon Clan."
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao's face showed a hint of caution. Judging from Xuan Cang's strength, the Black Dragon Clan's status and power on the Ancestral Dragon Continent were definitely not to be underestimated. If he were to offend such a powerful force, he would really have to think twice.
After a brief moment of thought, Lin Zhao said, "I already know Brother Xuancang, so it's too late to say this now. Once we get to the Ancestral Dragon Continent, we can look after each other. The people I've offended on the Ancestral Dragon Continent might be no less powerful than the Black Dragon Clan. Brother Xuancang, please don't feel that I've implicated your family of three."
Xuan Cang quickly replied, "A Bao and I survived thanks to our benefactor. I, Xuan Cang, would never do something so ungrateful."
Lin Zhao laughed. She didn't trust Xuan Cang much, but she trusted Ci Rui, so she didn't say much more about it.
A few days later, Lin Zhao was still here protecting Xuan Cang. When Xuan Cang was able to move freely, he handed him a few teleportation talismans: "Brother Xuan Cang, just call me Lin Zhao. This is not a place to stay for long. You should hurry up and leave. A Bao and Ci Rui are waiting for you to come home."
Xuan Cang looked at the level seven teleportation talisman in his palm, thinking of Lin Zhao's protection and help over the past few days. Instead of thanking him, he took out a black scale from his sleeve.
"I am a few years older than my benefactor, so I have the audacity to call her Sister Zhaozhao. Of course, I, Xuan Cang, am not taking advantage of being the elder brother for nothing. However, I have used up all my valuables over the years, and this is the only thing I have that is still somewhat useful. This scale carries the aura of my Black Dragon Clan's royal family and can also be used to transmit information. In addition, although Xuan Cang is a member of the Black Dragon royal family who has been expelled, I still have some people within the Black Dragon Clan. If you encounter any members of my clan, as long as they are not my enemies, they will give you some face because of this scale."
Lin Zhao took the scale and felt a faint sense of pressure and reverence emanating from the spiritual energy flowing on it. He thought to himself that it was indeed quite strange.
When she looked at Xuan Cang again, her mindset had changed somewhat.
Sure enough, people like Elder Cheng and Xuan Cang, who came from great sects but fell from grace, still had some trump cards up their sleeves. If you really underestimate them, you probably won't even know how you died.
After Xuan Cang left, Lin Zhao began to tentatively communicate with Granny Honghu, who had been silent all this time: "Master, now that we know about the situation of the Seven Star Palace and Youli, do you know of any forces in the Upper Realm that are at odds with the Seven Star Palace?"
It wasn't that Lin Zhao necessarily wanted to take advantage of the situation; it was just that while her family was considered extraordinary in the Tianhuang Continent, they weren't even close to being a first-rate power in the Zuhuang Continent, let alone posing any threat to the behemoths of the Upper Realm.
Therefore, Lin Zhao's first thought was to use the same method he had used to deal with Lu Xiuqing: leveraging the situation.
However, Granny Honghu's answer was negative: "Given the location and position of the Seven Star Palace, as well as the strength they have demonstrated, no force dares to oppose them."
Even the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, the ancestral phoenix race, has lost its status as a giant power in the upper realm due to the erosion of time, but the Seven Star Palace has remained prosperous and unyielding for many years. Who would dare to offend such a sect?
After hearing this, Lin Zhao sighed, "Then it seems that I really can only rely on myself."
Thinking about it this way, becoming the Lord of Tian Shu Star does have its advantages; at least I'm not completely ignorant about the enemy.
After briefly gathering her thoughts, Lin Zhao returned to the place where she and You Li had ambushed the dragon. Unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived, she heard the sounds of battle. Lin Zhao was wondering who was so bold as to provoke the dragon after she and You Li had beaten it into a ferocious state when she heard a clear, cold female voice.
"Mingyuan, your injuries have not healed, and with no hope of advancement, you have no chance against me. I only want your dragon claws. Are you really willing to risk your life to protect a pair of dragon claws that can still grow back?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Zhao affixed an invisibility talisman to his forehead to conceal his aura and figure. He then secretly flew to the vicinity on his sword. Looking up, a graceful and elegant figure came into view.
The woman's skin was as white as snow, with crimson lips and black hair. Her features were as beautiful as an unfolding ink painting. What was most stunning was her elegant and graceful temperament, which captivated people from afar.
Of all the beauties Lin Zhao had seen over the years, only Ning Wengui's mother could rival the woman before him. Ning Xianji Wantang's beauty, compared to the woman before him, always lacked a certain mature charm, like fine wine.
What Lin Zhao found most striking was her magnificent attire. She didn't look like a cultivator about to engage in battle at all, but rather like an empress ruling the world in elaborate imperial robes.
"Ice Hand, you speak so sweetly, but who doesn't know that Wolong Valley is surrounded by enemies on all sides? If I give you a pair of dragon claws today to seek peace, I will have to remove my dragon horns tomorrow to seek peace. In the future, this body of dragon flesh will also become a commodity for trade. If this continues, we will only be able to be at the mercy of others!"
Upon hearing this, the woman lowered her eyes, her dark pupils devoid of any warmth. "So you're refusing?"
"Am I supposed to agree to such demands in order to gain peace?"
Bingyi stopped speaking, but Lin Zhao clearly felt that in an instant, the world had turned cold.
Could it trigger a cold wave between heaven and earth?
Is this woman's cultivation level close to the Nascent Soul stage?
Lin Zhao's gaze became even more wary.
The dragon was clearly aware of the woman's cultivation level, so it did not engage in direct combat with her, but instead continued to flee in various directions.
This surprised Lin Zhao. Even though the dragon was injured, it still possessed spiritual energy and the physical body of a sub-divine beast. Why would it be so wary of this woman?
Soon, Lin Zhao's question was answered, because when the woman saw the dragon trying to escape in its original form, she moved and transformed into a magnificent and enormous ice phoenix.
Lin Zhao looked at it and exclaimed, "Good heavens! So this is a true phoenix species. No wonder it's not afraid of the dragon, a sub-dragon species!"
With a flap of its wings, the Ice Phoenix charged toward the fleeing dragon.
Lin Zhao pondered for a while, then suddenly sensed the contract's movement.
On a whim, Jin Ya, with her messy golden curly hair, rushed out: "I can sense my cousin's presence."
Lin Zhao remembered that this little ancestor's mother seemed to be from the Ice Phoenix clan, so it turned out that the Ice Phoenix from earlier was related to Jin Ya.
