"Another world?" Ho-Oh frowned. "Celebi's abilities can't be misused; they can cause irreversible damage. One wrong move and the world will..."
"Don't worry!" Mew spun around in the air, flicked its tail, and said with a relaxed expression, "It has nothing to do with Celebi."
"I stumbled upon this human with an unusual soul while I was wandering around... cough, traveling the world. The World Tree told me that this soul came from another world."
"A soul?" Phoenix King was somewhat surprised. "How could such a fragile entity as a soul possibly cross the barriers between worlds?"
"I don't know about that, but I guess it might be related to Palkia and Dialga. Ye Feng appeared just as they were waking up." Mew looked completely innocent.
Those two's secret realm is still closed. I don't know if it's their fault or not. Maybe they didn't control their power well when they woke up, and some of it leaked out.
"Palkia and Dialga..." Ho-Oh pondered for a moment, "If that's the case, then it makes sense. But they're just souls from another world, is there anything special about them that makes them worthy of Yggdrasil's attention?"
"Of course it's different. It's possible that Ye Feng's soul was affected by some unknown factor when he traveled through time and space, which gave him a special ability that will be of great help when disaster strikes in the future."
"A special ability?" Ho-Oh repeated Mew's words, a thoughtful look flashing in its eyes. "What kind of ability is so special?"
"It's just... not good." Dream was about to explain when she suddenly slapped her forehead. "I've talked too much. I almost forgot to save people."
The Phoenix King was startled, then remembered something and quickly flapped its wings to land on the ground.
···
"What is Ho-Oh doing?" While Ho-Oh was talking to Mew, Gu Yangzhou and the others watched intently.
Compared to Ho-Oh, Mew was very small, and due to the angle, they didn't notice Mew's presence. They only saw Ho-Oh hovering in mid-air, seemingly doing something.
Seeing Phoenix suddenly fall towards the ground, seemingly aiming for the spot where Ye Feng had been, he suddenly realized—he didn't know what had happened to Ye Feng!
Everyone instinctively wanted to run over, but three figures suddenly blocked their way; they were none other than the Three Sacred Beasts.
Before they could make a move, Phoenix King flapped its wings and quickly flew into the sky, then looked at Gu Yangzhou and the others.
A cluster of colorful bubbles floated beside Ho-Oh, and something seemed to be inside it.
"That's Ye Feng!" With the help of his superpowers, Master Yu had the best eyesight among them and immediately spotted Ye Feng, who was completely black, and his several Pokémon inside the bubble. However, they were all motionless, as if they were dead.
"What?!" Everyone was shocked, but they didn't have Master Yu's eyesight and could only see a cluster of colorful bubbles from afar.
"Wait!" Gu Yangzhou shouted instinctively as he watched the Phoenix King about to leave.
Master Jing and the others even instinctively reached for the Poké Ball, but when they realized they were facing Ho-Oh, their hands froze, leaving them in a dilemma.
"What is it?" Phoenix King's gaze swept over and noticed that there was a human among them with unusually strong mental power, so he asked through telepathy.
"You..." A telepathic voice rang in his mind. Master Yu, anxious for Ye Feng's safety, subconsciously wanted to question him, but immediately realized what kind of being he was facing and forcibly stopped himself from speaking.
However, seeing that Ho-Oh did not seem to intend to attack them, and that although it was asking a question, its voice was very gentle, they quickly changed to a respectful tone and asked, "Your Excellency Ho-Oh, may I ask where you are taking Ye Feng and his Pokémon?"
"Although it wasn't intentional, this human was still seriously injured because of me. I took him back to treat him, and once he's healed, he'll naturally return to you."
“This…” Master Yu hesitated for a moment.
Phoenix King knew what she wanted to say, and shook his head, saying, "The wounds left by the sacred fire cannot be easily treated by ordinary medical techniques. It would be more appropriate for me to handle them."
“But, Phoenix King, how can I trust you?” Gu Yangzhou suddenly asked.
Ho-Oh's telepathy is accessible to everyone, so others can hear what Ho-Oh is saying.
As soon as Gu Yangzhou spoke, the expressions of the others changed slightly—as expected of the Grand Master, he actually dared to face the might of the divine beast.
But Master, are you sure your questioning tone won't anger Ho-Oh? The three legendary beasts are already this strong, just how powerful has Ho-Oh become?
Phoenix King immediately recognized Gu Yangzhou as the one in charge. His gaze fell on Gu Yangzhou, and he said telepathically, "I don't need you to believe me, but there is one thing you need to know. I have no reason to deceive you."
Everyone immediately realized, "That's right, Phoenix King has no reason to lie to them."
If it wanted to harm Ye Feng, according to the previous statement, it could have simply left and Ye Feng would have died from the injuries caused by the Sacred Flame. Why go through all that trouble?
Everyone looked at Gu Yangzhou, for only he could make the decision at this moment.
Gu Yangzhou frowned. Although he knew that there was a 99% chance that what Feng Wang said was true, he was really unwilling to gamble on that 0.1% chance—if it was that 0.1%, the result of losing the gamble would be Ye Feng's life!
If something were to happen to Ye Feng, aside from the fact that he would certainly be derelict in his duty as the president, more importantly, China would lose a very promising young talent, which is what he cannot accept.
But... Ho-Oh really had no reason to lie to them.
"President..." Everyone looked at Gu Yangzhou, waiting for him to make the final decision.
"This is the only way." Gu Yangzhou hesitated for a long time before finally sighing.
"Very well, then I will take this person away." Phoenix King said calmly, then flapped its wings and quickly rose into the air with colorful bubbles, soon disappearing from everyone's sight, leaving only a rainbow in the sky as a trace of Phoenix King's presence.
Everyone looked down again, and the three sacred beasts had already left at some point.
···
"Whoosh!" Mew suddenly appeared next to Ho-Oh.
"I didn't expect you to be so good at conning people," Dream said, tapping her chin with her little hand.
"I didn't lie to them." Phoenix King said nonchalantly.
That's right, it only said it shouldn't be handled lightly, not that it couldn't be handled at all, right? There's nothing wrong with that.
Dream was speechless for a moment. Even the mighty Phoenix King was playing word games?
Chapter 234: Ye's Parents Finally Make Their Appearance
High in the sky, Phoenix King flew along with colorful bubbles and a dreamlike atmosphere.
"However, this human seems to have a different body as well, besides his special soul?" Phoenix King looked at Ye Feng inside the bubble, whose injuries were healing at a visible speed, and said with slight surprise.
Although the rainbow bubbles also have a healing effect, Phoenix King did not enhance this effect, so Ye Feng should not be recovering so quickly.
At the same time, it also discovered that Gardevoir, Arcanine, Gyarados, and Cthulhu had almost fully recovered from their injuries and were now just in a deep sleep due to excessive exhaustion. Cthulhu was even snoring.
Kingdra is recovering a little slower, but Ho-Oh senses a strong dragon-type energy emanating from it, so it should recover soon.
Only Pokémon remains unchanged, but thanks to the protection of the rainbow bubbles, there shouldn't be any problems.
"He shouldn't have gone to the World Tree to receive its inheritance yet, right? I don't sense any World Tree aura on him," Ho-Oh asked疑惑地.
Dream turned her head and casually replied, "Oh, you mean this? This is a protective gift Xerneas gave to Ye Feng. Except for natural death, as long as you're not reduced to ashes, you can slowly recover."
"Although the injuries to the Holy Flame were severe, they can be fully recovered in less than half an hour. This is because Xernias was worried that the life energy was too strong and Ye Feng's body couldn't handle it, so he reduced the effect. Otherwise, if you had walked a little slower, those humans might have noticed something was wrong."
"Why aren't the other two moving? And what about this King Thorn Dragon..."
"They were captured by Ye Feng later, so they didn't have Xerneas's protection. However, Kingdra obtained a scale that was closest to the Outrage from the Great Great Dragonite, and absorbed a lot of dragon-type energy from it, so it can be considered that it inherited part of the Great Great Dragonite's legacy."
"...A super-duper Dragonite? What a strange name. Only Mew could come up with that," Ho-Oh thought to himself.
After a few seconds of silence, Ho-Oh said, "Why did Xerneas..."
"He made a mistake, consider this compensation." Mew flicked its tail, a hint of disdain on its face. "Xerneas is too poor, so poor that all he has left is life energy, so he can only give these things."
"I said, what's so rare about life energy? They only give so little. I had to beg and plead to get more... cough, I got a little more. I used up a bit to save a Gengar, and I left the rest at the World Tree."
"And then there's Yveltal, who has nothing and looks like he's about to die."
"Two poor bastards!"
"hetui!"
"..." Phoenix King was speechless. So, in your dreamlike eyes, life energy is so worthless? And you were just about to say it was extortion, right? It's definitely extortion!
Only a game like Fantasy Westward Journey would go so far as to extort mythical beasts.
That's true. Although Xerneas had already given quite a bit, enough for Ye Feng and his Pokémon to obtain near-immortality, what's invaluable to humans and ordinary Pokémon is truly worthless to Mew...
···
The appearance of Ho-Oh immediately became a trending topic on the news, and the internet was flooded with all sorts of news about Ho-Oh.
Even a photo taken from a distance appeared out of nowhere, but the image was blurry and nothing could be seen; it was just a jumble of colors mixed together.
"Bro, did you use the door lock to tap that?"
"Even a prostitute can't save you from this picture!"
"Hey bro, Teacher Piao only handles screenshots, not photos!"
"Hey buddy up there, you've underestimated Teacher Piao!"
"···"
While the Phoenix King was the subject of much online discussion, the atmosphere at Ye Feng's home was somber.
Ye Feng's parents, Ye Hongsheng and Liang Yunqiu, sat on the sofa in the living room, while Gu Yangzhou sat opposite them.
"Our Xiaofeng was taken away by the Phoenix King?" Liang Yunqiu looked incredulous.
The appearance of Ho-Oh was shocking enough, but the fact that his own son was taken away was even more unbelievable.
"According to the Phoenix King, our medical technology is incapable of healing the wounds inflicted by the Sacred Flame, so..." Gu Yangzhou said.
"But···"
“Yunqiu.” Ye Hongsheng shook his head at his wife.
"Old Ye!" Liang Yunqiu glared at her husband and reached out to pinch his ear. "Aren't you worried about our son's safety?"
"Don't worry, of course I'm worried." Seeing that Liang Yunqiu was about to get agitated, Ye Hongsheng quickly grabbed his wife's hand and reassured her, "But since the president said so, we don't need to worry too much. You can't possibly distrust the president, can you?"
Gu Yangzhou nodded: "That's right. In that situation, Ye Feng's injuries looked very serious, and Feng Wang had no reason to lie to me. I didn't dare gamble with Ye Feng's life, so..."
