Sorry for disappearing without any notice. I was very busy these past few days because my house is being renovated, as a result, I had to do many miscellaneous tasks (like carrying things here and there, buying things and so on). And since I was tired, I wasn't able to translate during the night, so there were no chapters. Now, the renovation work is already in the end phase, so from the next day or two, I will start releasing chapters regularly.
Sorry,
NEET
Long Yi quickly a.n.a.lyzed the situation in his heart and felt that those five incoming experts were here for Matriarch Phoenix. Recalling what Nalan Ruyue said when she saw Matriarch Phoenix outside her room, Matriarch Phoenix was covered in dust and her clothes were torn in some places. It seemed as though Matriarch Phoenix had just experienced an intense battle and it was possible that these killers were the ones she was fighting against. Also, looking at the strength of the experts, Long Yi was sure that other than his group, only Matriarch Phoenix was capable enough to attract such experts.
Behind this Phoenix Inn, there was a small courtyard. Only Phoenix Inns in larger cities had courtyards. The courtyard was mainly used for as the residence for people of the Phoenix Clan, as such, the experts would definitely aim for the courtyard in order to find Matriarch Phoenix.
Long Yi quietly hid in a dark corner of this small courtyard. Spreading out his spirit net, Long Yi observed everything that was going on around him. Immediately, he was able to sense five weak auras rapidly approaching the courtyard.
Suddenly, Long Yi's eyelids twitched. He wasn't able to see the figures within the courtyard walls, but he managed to sense that two people had actually appeared in one corner of the courtyard. The other three were flanking the room the believed Matriarch Phoenix to be in.
”Who did Matriarch Phoenix provoke that they had to send so many people to chase her relentlessly?” Long Yi thought. These people were able to move extremely quickly, which showed off their speed. Moreover, their strength was definitely in the upper level of the strength pyramid of the Blue Waves Continent. However, Long Yi had never heard of such people in the Blue Waves Continent. As such, he came to a conclusion that there was only one possibility, these people were hidden in the shadows and seldom appear on the continent. If Long Yi was right, these people wouldn't go around provoking people. The only possible explanation was that Matriarch Phoenix provoked them, causing them to chase and kill her.
Long Yi waited patiently in the shadows. Finally, he saw two people hiding at the corner of this courtyard rush towards Matriarch Phoenix's bedroom as fast as lightning.
”d.a.m.n, were those angels?” Long Yi had his eyes wide open as he saw those two figures rus.h.i.+ng towards the bedroom entrance of Matriarch Phoenix. Although he wasn't able to see clearly, he was able to see a pair of wing-shaped things on the back of those two people. Was it possible that those wing-shaped things were specially installed?
Suddenly, Long Yi felt the aura of those five people spread outwards, covering the entire courtyard. The moment their auras surrounded the courtyard, the five people attacked simultaneously, instantly breaking the barrier laid out by Matriarch Phoenix.
Boom, a red light flashed from inside the bedroom along with the explosion. Matriarch Phoenix rushed out as fast as lightning as she brandished her huge sword, and fire like douqi flew towards the two birdmen with wings.
Instead of retreating, those two birdmen took out their weapons at the same time. Charging forward, they met Matriarch Phoenix's attack head-on.
”Such a familiar aura, how is it possible that they have the magic fluctuation of wind elements around them? Are they using wind douqi?” Long Yi saw those two birdmen's cyan colored douqi and was greatly startled.
After a tough and reckless right, Matriarch Phoenix and those two birdmen eventually fell into the middle of this courtyard. The moment they fell, the other three birdmen with wings rushed out from inside the room. With the addition of three birdmen, Matriarch Phoenix was completely surrounded. With the two from before, another birdman surrounded Matriarch Phoenix in a triangular formation on the ground and the other two hovered in the sky. Their huge bows were already drawn and were aiming straight at Matriarch Phoenix.
”Human, return our Winged Clan's sacred object. Return it, and we will spare your life.” An aged voice resounded.
”What sacred object? Don't slander my Phoenix Clan, your scared object is nothing in my eyes.” Matriarch Phoenix coldly snorted.
”All of us here knows who stole our secret object. If you refuse to hand it over, don't blame us for being impolite,” Another Winged Clan member said. Listening to his voice, he was definitely a person who lived for a long time. It was no wonder they were so strong, they had already trained for such a long time.
Instead of giving an answer to the birdmen, Matriarch Phoenix raised her huge sword and initiated her attack. In an instant, the battle of one against five started. The five birdmen seemed as though they didn't want to let other people learn about this matter. They had already set up a wind attributed barrier which enclosed the entire area before they engaged Matriarch Phoenix.
”Oh, Looks like they are they seldom seen Winged Clan! This is indeed a strong clan, I wonder what sacred object Matriarch Phoenix stole from them.” Long Yi muttered. It was still unclear whether Matriarch Phoenix stole that sacred object or not, but he was sure that Matriarch Phoenix wouldn't be interested if the object was ordinary.
The douqi which Matriarch Phoenix used was clearly not that elementary Phoenix Douqi like before. The douqi she was using should be one level higher than compared to before. However, when facing the tight encirclement of those birdmen from the Winged Clan, Long Yi had already determined that Matriarch Phoenix would be defeated.
Swish, swish, along with two flashes of light, Matriarch Phoenix let out a low groan as her left shoulder was pierced by a wind energy arrow. Staggering for a few steps, Matriarch Phoenix nearly fell to the ground.
”Return our sacred object, otherwise you will die here.” A crisp voice resounded. This voice was like the voice of the celestial being from the highest heaven. Compared to the aged voices previously, the difference was like heavens and earth.
Long Yi heard this young girl's clear and melodious voice, and discovered that it was coming from one of the birdman who was holding a bow in the sky. Or rather, birdwoman. However, all five of them were disguised, which resulted in Long Yi being unable to see their appearance. In his head, Long Yi had his own doubts, was it possible for the speaker to be a girl? Moreover, she had to be a powerful being, as she was one of the five Winged Clan member attacking Matriarch Phoenix.?
A red light flashed around the body of Phoenix Mistress and the wound on her left shoulder immediately stopped bleeding. After she stopped the bleeding, she stabbed her huge sword into the ground and shouted, ”Ximen Yu, how long do you intend to watch the drama? Still not coming out for this grandmother.”
