Chapter 822: The Demonic Man (2/2)

Why? Because the phoenix portion was actually his skin.

This first boss was related to him somehow.

“First Boss is willing to see you two. How strange, why would the reclusive geezer agree?” Second Boss came out of the cave with a strange glint in his eyes.

Feiyun and Yao Ji came and felt a pricking pain from the chilling aura.

Yao Ji took out her ghost battle and became cautious: “There’s actually a hidden master here. Extremely powerful.”

Feiyun became cautious as well. As they got to the end, they saw an old man sitting on a black platform. Behind him was the image of a firebird.

Feiyun was astonished after seeing the old man.

“Haha, Young Master, we finally meet again.” The old man stood up and came up next to Feiyun then bowed deeply.

“Grand-grandpa Liu, you’re that famous demonic man?” Feiyun took a deep breath and said.

He used to be the attendant in charge of the Feng Mansion. He came with Feiyun’s mother after she married his dad. He watched him grow up and was as close as can be.

Yao Ji stared at the both of them, unaware of the situation.

“I should have known. If Mother was a demon, then you’re definitely not a human either.” He said.

“The whole demonic thing was a way to trick others. After all, this is a human dynasty. Too many demons appearing at once will cause the real human masters to come and investigate. That’s not good for your growth, Young Master.” Housekeeper Liu rubbed Feiyun’s shoulder.

He didn’t hide anything from Yao Ji, clearly considering her as Feiyun’s wife.

“So what’s going on? Where is Mother? And Father?” Feiyun became curious.

“It’s a long story. The lady has returned to Timeworn World, so should the master without anything unexpected. I’m only staying here to protect you.” Housekeeper Liu pondered for a bit before answering.

Timeworn was a top world of the demons. For example, Mo Yaoyao came from Firmament but this was tiny and weak compared to Timeworn.

In reality, they were just two areas on the same continent belonging to the demons, not an actual independent world. They were only classified as such due to the vastness of the land.

For example, both Jin, Central, and another three thousand tributary dynasties were considered one world by the humans - Sixth World.

Feiyun naturally understood the significance of Timeworn for the demons. He asked: “I’m looking for confirmation, Grandpa Liu, did you know Nangong Hongyan?”

“The girl from Supreme Beauty? Of course. I came to find her after we split. She’s a good girl, unyielding and merciless, suitable to be your wife. She’ll be of great help in the future. Oh right, I’m the one who gave her the Firebird Gown. Don’t be mad at me for interfering because it is very hard for demons to reproduce. You need many wives to have an offspring. The lady gave me this task before leaving.”

“What I want to know is how did you know that gathering all five garments would result in a tremendous power?” Feiyun wiped the sweat off his forehead. He didn’t tell him that Nangong Hongyan was dead either.

“The lady told me this too, but I don’t really know what her true intention is.”

Impossible. Feiyun became slightly emotional.

The five garments combined became a phoenix-dragon armor. The phoenix skin used for it belonged to him in his former life.

Why did this skin fall down around Jin? Why did his mother know the secret behind all five of them?

Could Mother have something to do with Shui Yueting?

Impossible, they definitely don’t know each other. This must be a coincidence!
