"Picked up?"
"Bullshit!!"
First the Ghost Phoenix Battle Garment had suddenly disappeared, then it had been used to nurture someone else's Heaven-Connecting Banner. And now he'd seen the Dao Lord of the Firmament brazenly wearing the Ghost Phoenix Battle Garment. Even after living for countless tens of thousands of years, even with the best of tempers, the Ghost Phoenix Ancestor couldn't hold back anymore. He cursed outright!
"Come back!"
The Ghost Phoenix Ancestor roared, trying to call back the Ghost Phoenix Battle Garment.
The Ghost Phoenix Battle Garment was his life-bound artifact. It had been with him since childhood and was his closest friend. Even if it had been stolen, surely it would want to return as soon as it saw him.
An unexpected scene unfolded.
Faced with the Ghost Phoenix Ancestor's summons, the Ghost Phoenix Battle Garment didn't react at all.
"What's going on!?"
The entire Ghost Phoenix Clan was stunned. Had the Ghost Phoenix Battle Garment betrayed their ancestor? Why wouldn't it come back?
"What did you do to it!? I can clearly sense that my Origin Mark is still there," the Ghost Phoenix Ancestor demanded, his face dark.
An Origin Mark connected a master to their life-bound artifact. It was the bond between them.
The Ghost Phoenix Ancestor could sense that his Origin Mark was still there, so why was the Ghost Phoenix Battle Garment ignoring him?
"What could I have done to it? It simply gave up on you and chose someone better," the Dao Lord of the Firmament said with a chuckle, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
The Sacred Dragon Emperor and the other three couldn't help their lips curling into smiles.
The Dao Lord of the Firmament really knew how to twist the knife.
"Bullshit!!"
The Ghost Phoenix Ancestor roared, his face turning red
