Chapter 428: Phoenix Skies Dynasty
Neeson came with the Qin family.
The Qin family didn’t look as pitiful as the people on Duanmu Rui’s side. However, everyone’s faces were more or less filled with shock. It was obvious that they had suffered a lot of fright previously.
The Qin family had mobilized most of their people this time. When they saw Li Yan standing under the stone door, they revealed hateful gazes.
“Li Yan, how dare you come here!” Qin Zhao shouted. “Since you’re here, today will be your death date!”
Li Yan glanced at him fiercely and turned to look at Neeson.
The Qin family’s biggest reliance now was Neeson’s group of robots. Seeing Li Yan look at Neeson, Qin Chu said proudly,
“Li Yan, did you not expect us to invite the robot genius over… You might not know this, but when we came, we passed by a tomb chamber. There was a twin fish jade pendant that could replicate anything inside. Neeson duplicated 999 of his robots. His robots are a huge help to us in this tomb.”
Li Yan narrowed his eyes, a murderous glint flickering across them.
Qin Chu felt his throat tighten and he couldn’t continue.
Second Master Qin snorted coldly. “Why are you talking so much nonsense with such a person? Neeson, let your robots kill them directly.”
When Chu Luo heard this, she sneered and looked at Neeson. “Coincidentally, let’s settle the score for you hurting Yan just now.”
Without giving Neeson a chance to speak, she summoned Phoenix.
The Qin family members looked at the burning Phoenix and were dumbfounded.
Neeson quickly mobilized all his robots.
Li Yan looked at the Qin family and gestured to his bodyguards.
Then, he walked towards the Qin family with his bodyguards.
When the Qin family saw Li Yan approaching with his bodyguards, Second Master Qin said loudly to the bodyguards and the experts he had brought, “Get rid of this person.”
The bodyguards and experts went over at the same time.
Li Yan swung the whip in his hand and the bodyguard closest to him was whipped until his skin and flesh were lacerated. He didn’t dare to get close.
The experts wanted to use their special ability on Li Yan, but they realized that they couldn’t do anything here.
When the Qin family saw this situation, their expressions turned a little ugly.
“Big Brother, what should we do now?”
Second Master Qin asked Eldest Master Qin, who had been standing there silently.
Eldest Master Qin looked at Chu Luo and then turned to the heavy stone door.
A glint flashed across his eyes as he said, “While Neeson is holding Chu Luo back and the bodyguards are holding Li Yan back, let’s go blow up that stone door. That legendary imperial tomb must be inside.”
If it was that imperial tomb, there would be something inside that they wanted. When the time came, with the divine artifacts and divine medicines, no matter how powerful Chu Luo was, she wouldn’t be their match.
At that thought, they immediately walked over.
Neeson watched as the flames spat out by Chu Luo’s Phoenix kept melting his robots. A trace of grievance finally flashed across his eyes.
“Chu, why are you going against me?”
Chu Luo looked at him and sneered. “Do I have to be grateful to you when you are allying with our opponents to deal with us?”
Neeson didn’t think he was going against her at all. “I can impart to you all the robot technology I know.”
To him, making robots was his everything.
“I’m already so good to you. Why don’t you follow me?”
Chu Luo stared at Neeson coldly. She felt that this person was crazy.
Neeson actually continued, “In this world, I only remember you. I can’t remember anyone else. Shouldn’t you be my wife?”
Chu Luo looked at Neeson speechlessly, but she finally understood why this person’s behavior was always strange when he saw her.
She said bluntly, “Wrong. Your wife isn’t me, but a fish spirit.”
When Neeson heard this, anger appeared in his eyes. “You can even come up with such a ridiculous lie just to not be with me.”
At this moment, Chu Luo suddenly wanted to bring this person back to the lake in America and turn the carp spirit who had fed him the Amnesia Pill into her human form, so that they could be together.
Neeson looked at Chu Luo’s expression and a possessive glint flashed across his eyes. “But it doesn’t matter if you don’t go back with me now. Since we’re already here, we can cultivate together after I get the immortal pills and cultivation manuals inside.”
“Dream on!”
After Chu Luo finished speaking, she took out a silver needle from her hand and said, “I didn’t deal with you previously because you’re really capable in robotics. However, keeping a person like you around is just making myself unhappy. In that case, what’s the use of keeping you?”
The silver needle stabbed towards Neeson’s heart at an extremely fast speed.
Neeson quickly dodged. Although he dodged the most fatal spot, he didn’t manage to dodge it completely.
Pfft!
“Ooh…”
The momentary pain, on top of his previous injuries, made his face even paler. Neeson looked down at the silver needle on his right shoulder and pulled it off.
He then looked at Chu Luo and suddenly gave her an extremely strange smile.
Chu Luo frowned and subconsciously turned to look at Li Yan.
At this moment, Li Yan and his bodyguards were about to deal with the Qin family’s bodyguards and experts.
Chu Luo was about to retract her gaze when she realized that no one from the Qin family was there.
She abruptly looked towards the stone door.
At this moment, the Qin family members had placed a few large bags of explosives under the stone door and lit the fuse.
Chu Luo’s expression turned stern. She raised her hand to extinguish the fire on the fuse.
At that moment, Neeson’s robots ran over.
Li Yan, who had already dealt with the Qin family’s bodyguards and experts, also realized the situation over there. He subconsciously rushed towards Chu Luo.
The moment Li Yan shielded Chu Luo in his arms, the robots and the explosives ordered by the Qin family exploded at the same time.
The blast wave from the explosion instantly sent their bodies flying to the side.
The Qin family members standing closest to the door were killed by the explosion. Everyone farther away was also sent flying by this powerful blast.
Chu Luo had wanted to build a protective barrier when the explosion happened, but before she could move, she felt a powerful gravity sucking her away.
A second before she lost consciousness, she heard Li Yan’s frightened voice.
“Luoluo!”
…
When Chu Luo opened her eyes, she was a little stunned to see the familiar environment.
She had been chosen as the successor of the High Priest since she was young and had her own palace since she was young.
This palace was huge, with pavilions, crystal bricks, and glass tiles. White satin and a refreshing fragrance floated everywhere inside.
Feng Ling subconsciously glanced at her clothes. Indeed, she was wearing a dress from the Phoenix Skies Kingdom.
She suddenly panicked and sat up in bed. She looked at her hands and muttered, “Why did I come back?”
At that moment, bell-like laughter and voices came from outside.
“Could it be that the Priestess hasn’t woken up after staying up to read last night?”
“It’s possible. Our Priestess is the most powerful in this world. She knows so much. I really don’t know why the High Priest is insisting that she only takes over his position after she turns 16.”
“It’s possible that the Priestess doesn’t want to take over so early.”
“What are you guys talking about?”
A delicate voice interrupted. Then, two maidservants said at the same time, “Greetings, Guardian.”
“No need for formalities. You’re my older sister’s subordinates. I’ve told you before to dispense with the kneeling.”
The two maidservants were obviously very touched. At this moment, Feng Lan asked, “Has my sister woken up?”
“Not yet.”
“Then go down. I’ll wake Sister up.”
“But…”
“Don’t worry. If Sister is still asleep, I won’t wake her up. I’ll let her sleep for a while more.”
As Feng Ling listened to the footsteps of the two maidservants leaving and the approaching footsteps, great shock flashed across her eyes.
What was going on?
Why was Feng Lan still here?
Did she come back at the wrong time?
The footsteps coming from outside approached, followed by the sound of a knock on the bedroom door and Feng Lan’s question, “Sister, are you awake?”
Feng Ling retracted the sharpness in her eyes and planned to see what was going on. She lifted the blanket and walked towards the door with her feet on the crystal floor.
Opening the door, she saw Feng Lan, whose looks bore a 40-50% resemblance to her.
“Sister, you’re awake.”
Feng Ling looked at Feng Lan in front of her and lowered her eyes to hide the coldness in them. She asked, “What?”
Feng Lan was obviously stunned by Chu Luo’s attitude for a moment. She didn’t think too much about it and said, “Sister, you forgot that the Grand General has already been to the battlefield for five days. You said that you would pray for the Grand General and the warriors today.”
Hearing this, Feng Ling was stunned.
So it turned out she had returned five months earlier.
At the thought of this, Feng Ling’s expression turned a little ugly.
“Sister, what’s wrong? Did you sleep late again last night?”
Feng Ling looked at Feng Lan, who was asking about her well-being with a concerned tone. In the past, she had always trusted her, so she had never doubted her. Now that her mental state was different, she realized that Feng Lan had a Dharmic Artifact on her that could make people unable to peek into her heart. No wonder she could conceal it so flawlessly.
She thought for a while. Previously, in the illusion, she had seen Feng Lan appear in the biggest battle between the Grand General and the Black Devil Nation. The Grand General would be severely injured. Her master had used a lot of priest power to make the Grand General hold on and win that war back.
She didn’t see the Grand General again until she became the High Priestess.
At the thought of this, Feng Ling planned to do something before dealing with her.
