Phoenix Emperor
Chap 84's. The Azure Dragon & Wind Tiger.

"Your highness, there's something important I want to say."

The middle-aged man sitting on the majestic throne nodded slowly, then got off his throne and left the room with his subordinates.

"What news do you bring?" asked the middle-aged man after being in a quiet place.

"Some of my subordinates sensed the existence of the members of the Great Phoenix clan."

The look on the middle-aged man's face instantly changed, he approached the subordinate and said. "I don't want to hear a joke!"

"Your highness, servants have already ascertained it themselves, the aura they felt did indeed come from a member of the Great Phoenix clan."

"No way! Have they not all been destroyed?"

Long Heijin found it hard to believe his subordinate's report, but he believed that his subordinates were unlikely to pass on any false news to him.

"Tell this news to the Wind Tiger clan, ask them to settle the matter."

"Okay, your highness!"

After his subordinates left the place, Long Heijin then returned to his throne, his originally calm mind suddenly becoming muddled by the news.

A dozen years ago, he and his army had already confirmed that the Great Phoenix clan had been wiped out, but now instead a person appeared from the clan.

The appearance of this person made the trauma of his past appear again, even if it was only one person, but the members of the Great Phoenix clan were not figures that could be underestimated.

In the event of an attack a dozen years ago, the Azure Dragon clan was close to defeat and if it were not for the Wind Tiger clan, then they would be the ones to perish.

"It can't be allowed!"

"Your highness" greeted the other middle-aged man who had just entered the room.

"Long Huo, what a coincidence that you're here."

"What's up, your honor?"

Long Heijin then told about the news delivered by one of his subordinates, also asking for an opinion on his decision.

Long Huo nodded in understanding, then expressed his opinion. According to Long Huo, the decision taken by the sky emperor was the right one.

The appearance of the members of the Great Phoenix clan after such a long time was indeed shocking, but that did not mean that they had to intervene to overcome the problem.

Long Huo also convinced the sky emperor not to worry, because after all, an enemy still could not necessarily be a great threat to them.

Moreover, the Azure Dragon clan had already grown stronger and less easily destroyed, even they could still win if they fought against the other two clans.

"But what if this guy turns out to be a big threat to us?" ask Long Heijin.

"If he's a threat, then we're the nine generals who will eliminate him."

After occupying the highest imperial throne in the Sky continent, Long Heijin then raised the nine strongest cultivators in his clan to nine generals.

These generals possessed extraordinary strength, and if these nine generals united, they could have destroyed one empire easily.

Long Huo was one of them, even though he was ranked seventh strongest, but his strength really could not be underestimated.

In addition to the fighting ability already recognized by the emperor himself, Long Huo also had an intelligent brain and was a reliable war strategist.

"Alright, tell this news to the others. I want you all to keep an eye on that guy's movements."

"Okay, your highness!" sahut Long Huo, then left the throne hall.

Envoy Long Heijin had now arrived at the Wind Tiger clan, after passing word to the clan leader, the envoy then relayed the order from Long Heijin.

"Have you confirmed the truth of this information?" asked Lao Zhang, the leader of the Wind Tiger clan.

"We have confirmed everything" replied the envoy.

"Alright, I will ask my subordinates to deal with this matter" Lao Zhang said.

"What about the Jade Tortoise clan? Did you also pass this information on to them?"

The imperial envoy shook his head slowly, this information was deliberately hidden from the Jade Tortoise clan, because if they knew it then the clan would rebel.

Although the Great Phoenix clan had already been wiped out, the Jade Tortoise clan still maintained its loyalty, even to this day they were still reluctant to submit to the Azure Dragon clan.

When the attack happened, they could not do anything because it was too late to get news, and by the time they arrived there, the Great Phoenix clan had already been destroyed.

Gui Zhou as the clan leader had planned revenge, but his clan did not have the ability to match the Wind Tiger clan and the Azure Dragon clan.

"Good! Do not let them know this news" said Lao Zhang.

"Alright, then the servant retreats" said the messenger, then disappears from sight.

After the envoy from the empire left his room, Lao Zhang then called some of his subordinates, then had them investigate the matter.

Lao Zhang also advised his subordinates that they settle the matter as soon as possible, otherwise the sky emperor would be furious at all of them.

After staying for a few days in Yunji city, Yin Feng then decided to continue his journey towards the next city.

From the information he had gathered over the past few days in Yujin city, Yin Feng learned that the place he wanted to reach was still very far away from there.

Moreover, Yin Feng also knew that the Azure Dragon clan was an extremely powerful clan, and it was extremely impossible for Yin Feng to be able to win when facing that clan now.

That was why, before launching his act of revenge, Yin Feng should have a completely mature preparation, one of which was to increase his strength.

Other than increasing strength, in his plan this time around Yin Feng had to find allies, at least he had an army to face the empire of the Sky Continent.

Of the three ruling clans, the only clan that was still likely to be invited to ally was only the Jade Tortoise clan, but they were not necessarily willing to help him either.

If the Jade Tortoise clan was unwilling to help him in this battle, then the only path he could take was to build his own army.

But for now, Yin Feng only wanted to focus on increasing his strength and gathering as much information as possible, after which he would decide on the best path.

In the depths of the forest.

Yin Feng stopped his steps when sensing the presence of cultivators around him, he then released his spiritual soul to ascertain the number of enemies.

"Ten people" muttered Yin Feng.

After knowing the number of enemies, Yin Feng took out a silver sword and dagger from his spatial ring, then unleashed his aura of power for those cultivators to come out.

Sure enough, not long after Yin Feng released his aura of strength, ten cultivators came out of his hiding and directly surrounded Yin Feng.

"Who are you?" asked Yin Feng.

"We are the ones who will take your life!"

Yin Feng raised the corner of his lips. "Then try to prove your words" he said.
