Feeling Ling Tian's protest, Yuan Feng's expression stiffened as she said in a coquettish voice.

"My son, the outside world is so interesting. How about Mother takes you out for some fun, hmm?"

However.

Immediately after she finished speaking.

Yuan Feng clearly felt even more violent fetal movements within her.

The meaning behind it was self-evident!

Yuan Feng's expression turned sheepish. Though she had the heart to force her way out to roam, she ultimately let out a faint sigh and sat back down.

For many years thereafter.

Whenever Yuan Feng could not suppress the urge to go out and roam.

She was forcibly stopped by Ling Tian's fetal movements.

As "active" as Yuan Feng was, she was extremely annoyed yet completely helpless.

Who could have imagined.

The always lawless Yuan Feng would eventually be kept in check by Ling Tian.

Yet Yuan Feng did not know...

Demon Ancestor Luohu had been lurking outside the Southern Ming Undying Volcano, waiting for her.

Ling Tian's behavior had coincidentally caused Luohu's schemes to fall through.

In a hidden spot outside the Southern Ming Undying Volcano.

Demon Ancestor Luohu slowly manifested his form, his expression rather unsightly.

He never would have expected.

So many years had passed.

The extremely active Yuan Feng had actually not stepped out of the Southern Ming Undying Volcano even once.

This was simply too illogical.

It also caused Luohu's plan to ambush Yuan Feng to fall completely flat.

"Could it be that Yuan Feng has sensed a crisis?"

Luohu muttered to himself.

Yuan Feng possessed the powerful cultivation of a mid-stage Chaos Golden Immortal.

Even if she was not proficient in divination.

She would inevitably have some intuition before a crisis arrived.

Thinking of this.

Luohu's brows furrowed slightly.

If that were the case.

Then he could not continue waiting like this.

He had designs on the entire Hong Huang; he could not waste too much time here.

"I must think of another way!"

Luohu fell into deep thought, the cunning look in his eyes flashing wildly.

He did not know how much time had passed.

As if he had thought of some scheme, a look of joy appeared on his face.

The next moment.

Luohu transformed, the devil energy on his body dissipating entirely, replaced by rich immortal energy.

At this moment, where was the Demon Ancestor? He was clearly a righteous-looking Daoist.

"From this day forth, I am the Heavenly Mandate Daoist!"

Luohu chuckled, and his figure vanished from the spot.

Not long after.

Luohu arrived before the Southern Ming Undying Volcano and called out loudly.

"I am the Heavenly Mandate Daoist!"

"Recently, I have sensed the Heavenly Dao, and following its guidance, I have come specifically to seek Clan Leader Yuan Feng to discuss an important matter!"

After speaking.

Luohu waited quietly on the spot.

Since he had already invoked the Heavenly Dao.

Yuan Feng could never ignore that!

As expected.

Not long after.

Rahu saw a portal appear on the defensive formation of the Southern Ming Undying Volcano.

Yuan Feng's voice drifted faintly from within.

"I am Yuan Feng."

"Heavenly Mandate Daoist, please come in for a discussion."

Hearing this, Rahu's lips curled upward as he stepped directly inside.

Phoenix Clan Great Hall.

Yuan Feng sat upon the high dais.

Qing Luan, Golden Phoenix King, and a host of other Phoenix Clan Great Expert were arrayed within.

In the center of the hall stood Rahu, wearing an expression of upright righteousness.

"Heavenly Mandate Daoist, is it?"

"You say you came to find me based on the guidance of the Heavenly Dao?"

"What exactly is the matter?"

Yuan Feng's expression appeared calm, yet her eyes were filled with curiosity.

What Rahu had said earlier had immediately piqued the interest of the bored Yuan Feng.

Beyond that, the eyes of Qing Luan, Golden Phoenix King, and the other Great Expert were filled with nothing but vigilance.

They had never heard of this so-called "Heavenly Mandate Daoist."

To come to the Phoenix Clan so rashly—he must have an ulterior motive!

But what no one noticed was...

When Rahu entered, Fire Phoenix King seemed to hear something, and his expression changed abruptly.

Yet, just as Fire Phoenix King was about to speak, the tribulation energy in the depths of his eyes surged violently. His originally clear gaze was instantly covered in bloodshot veins, filled to the brim with resentment and rage.

Fire Phoenix King smiled silently and became extremely quiet.

At the same time, Rahu's voice slowly echoed throughout the hall...

"I am Heavenly Mandate Daoist, and I am deeply connected to the Heavenly Dao."

"Recently, I was fortunate enough to receive another hint from the Heavenly Dao..."

"A chaotic era in Hong Huang is approaching!"

"But within this chaotic era, there lies a monumental opportunity."

"I was fortunate enough to glimpse a thread of the future from the chaotic heavenly secrets..."

"This coming chaotic era is precisely the chance for the Phoenix Clan to dominate Hong Huang!"

"Opportunity knocks but once; do not let it slip away!"

After Rahu finished speaking, the entire hall was stunned.

No one had expected Rahu to utter such earth-shattering words.

A chaotic era in Hong Huang!

Phoenix Clan domination!

This was simply too sensational!

And yet, it was also far too tempting!

Great Elder Golden Phoenix King frowned, instinctively feeling disbelief.

But the ambition in Golden Phoenix King's heart surged uncontrollably.

If what "Heavenly Mandate Daoist" said was true, then wouldn't the Phoenix Clan...

Most of the Phoenix Clan Great Expert members in the grand hall shared similar thoughts with the Golden Phoenix King.

They were mostly at the perfection level of the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal.

If the Phoenix Clan could truly dominate Hong Huang.

Then the possibility of them breaking through to the Chaos Golden Immortal would be greatly increased.

At the same time.

A faint trace of calamity aura appeared in the eyes of these Phoenix Clan Great Expert members almost simultaneously.

Throughout the entire hall.

Heavy breathing rose and fell one after another.

These Phoenix Clan Great Experts cast their expectant gazes upon Yuan Feng.

Feeling all of this.

Yuan Feng frowned.

She instinctively felt that something was wrong.

Yet, Yuan Feng clearly sensed that when the Heavenly Mandate Daoist spoke, the heavenly secrets suddenly trembled slightly.

The trembling of heavenly secrets!

This clearly indicated that what the Heavenly Mandate Daoist said was not false.

At the very least, a large part of it was true!

Yuan Feng immediately fell into deep thought.

Although the Phoenix Clan was powerful.

There were definitely no shortage of forces in Hong Huang that were not inferior to the Phoenix Clan.

On the surface, there were the Dragon Clan and the Kirin Clan!

And that was not all.

In the hidden corners of Hong Huang, heaven knows how many hidden Great Experts there were.

If the Phoenix Clan were to emerge now, they would inevitably become the target of public criticism.

Let alone dominating Hong Huang.

They would likely face imminent destruction.

Thinking of this.

A sharp glint flashed in Yuan Feng's eyes, and she was just about to strike to subdue this so-called "Heavenly Mandate Daoist."

But at this very moment.

Rahu's extremely sincere voice rang out once again...

"This one understands Lady Yuan Feng's concerns."

"The Phoenix Clan does not need to emerge immediately and expose its ambitions."

"But there is no harm in the Phoenix Clan making secret arrangements to prepare for the coming path of hegemony."

"This one is willing to be a vanguard for the Phoenix Clan and serve the Phoenix Clan with absolute loyalty!"

As he spoke.

Rahu steeled his heart and knelt on one knee, lowering his posture to the extreme.

Rahu believed that Yuan Feng would not refuse outright.

Although his words were somewhat abrupt and absurd.

His suggestion was of great benefit to the Phoenix Clan and caused no harm!

If the Phoenix Clan made secret arrangements in Hong Huang to cultivate their influence.

Even if they did not vie for hegemony, the benefits to the Phoenix Clan would be immense.

The probability of Yuan Feng agreeing...

Was extremely high!

However, Rahu did not wait for Yuan Feng's nod; instead, he heard her voice, which was filled with intense killing intent...

"Tell me!"

"What exactly..."

"Is your purpose?"
