The Yuan-Chu Co-Lord, ruler of one of the Five Phoenixes, had come to the human race?
For the entire human race, this was an unprecedented event.
Although many people now knew of the Kite God's origins among the human race because of what had happened to the Titan Race, and places like the Northern Plains were aware of Mu Qingxuan and Xu Kun's identities.
Publicly, however, Mu Qingxuan and the Phoenix Race had never acknowledged each other's identities.
Therefore, Mu Qingxuan's identity as the Azure Phoenix Lord had never been made public. Her becoming one of the Lords of the Era for humanity had also been due to a series of coincidences.
As long as the Phoenix Race did not acknowledge it, there would be no connection between the human race and the Phoenix Race because of Mu Qingxuan's status as Azure Phoenix Lord.
The same had been true in the past. Apart from the Phoenix Race's involvement in the founding of the City of Glaciers, one of the Six Main Cities of humanity above the Tenth Floor, the Phoenix Race, one of the Three Saint Races, had never made a statement or extended aid, no matter what trouble Mu Qingxuan herself encountered or what crisis humanity faced.
The two races thus maintained a relationship that, on the surface, amounted to no relationship at all.
To any Tier-B Race, the Phoenix Race was unattainably lofty. Compared to the Dragon Race's Tyrannical Path and the Kun Race's mystery, the Phoenix Race gave all lower races a direct impression of nobility.
Even the Silkworm Race, which had entered the B-tier Sequence after unification, had only barely become a subsidiary race of the Phoenix Race by annually offering racial specialties such as Gold Silk.
The Phoenix Race was the lord of all birds.
