Southern Border.

On the sheer cliff, a biting wind seemed to blow from the depths of the abyss, carrying a faint scent of blood that sent chills down one's spine.

"May the God of Wind bless us with favorable weather and abundant harvests next year."

Led by High Priest, a group of villagers knelt and bowed before the temple at the foot of the cliff.

Inside the temple is a bronze statue, four feet tall, with a human face and a bird's body, and its wings are particularly large, as if a gentle wave could summon a strong wind.

"Offerings for the grand sacrificial ceremony!"

A boy and a girl, carrying flower baskets, were pushed into the temple of the Great Wind God.

The light suddenly dimmed, and the statue was shrouded in shadow.

Puff--

Crimson splattered, its color identical to the streak of blood falling outside.

Han Zhen walked into the temple, and couldn't help but cover his nose, frowning as he looked at the human-faced bird not far away.

"Didn't I already teach you the method for refining the Blood Pill?"

"Flesh and blood taste better."

The monstrous bird with a human face crunched on the bone, revealing a chilling smile.

Han Zhen frowned even more deeply. One of the totems of the once Great Shang was now living a life of savagery and savagery.

"The Jade Phoenix God has found her master."

"Hmm?" The human-faced bird's eyes lit up, its feathers stood on end in excitement, and gusts of wind howled through the temple.

"Is the Imperial Preceptor about to begin repairing the Divine Tree and awakening the True Phoenix?"

However, Han Zhen's next words made his expression freeze:

"Owned by humankind."

The human-faced bird fell into deep thought.

"Humans... can they compete for the Jade Phoenix God?"

"Although that woman is human, she was born with the body of a phoenix..." Han Zhen squinted.

"Even so, how could she possibly defeat the Divine Child of Zhi Duoluo?"

"Not defeat, but kill."

Han Zhen fell silent after speaking.

After a long pause, he spoke again:

"This arm of mine was severed by her, and she wasn't alone..."

Han Zhen recounted everything that happened in the Blood Phoenix Secret Realm.

Finally, he said with a burning gaze:

"She is still a disciple of the Clear Abyss Sect, and the path she is currently taking must be the path of condensing the Hundred Birds Form."

"I fear that after some time, she will be able to gather the Phoenix God on her own, and at that time, you beings..."

"It's pointless!"

The human-faced, monstrous bird's bloodshot eyes narrowed slightly.

"We must not let her leave Southern Border with the Jade Phoenix God." As soon as the words fell, the human-faced monster bird flapped its wings and transformed into a gust of wind, flying into the sky.

Hanging Temple.

In the Aquatic Clan Grotto-Heaven, demon kings and great demons of various races gathered together for the first time ever, and they were quite enthusiastic.

During this period, all ethnic groups experienced the benefits of the Heavenly Jade.

But gratitude is only part of it.

More importantly, this young Demon Race, one with the bloodline of a True Dragon and the other with the bloodline of a True Phoenix, and both wielding the Divine Jade, are highly likely to become the leaders of the Demon Race in the Southern Border in the future.

At this moment, all the demons surrounded Li Mo and Ying Bing.

To be precise, next to Sky Dragon Little Li, Ying Bing sat there expressionless, sipping tea with a cool and aloof demeanor. The demons glanced at her a few times but didn't dare to approach.

"When I return, I will discipline my people and strictly forbid them from urinating or defecating indiscriminately in the upper reaches of the river, as this affects the living environment of the local Aquatic Clan."

"The Roc Clan will share the Golden Peng Weather Forecast, bringing everyone accurate weather predictions!"

"We, the Purple Electric Gill Eel... well, let's try not to generate electricity recklessly in the future."

The demon kings were united in their efforts, working with great enthusiasm, their hearts burning with passion.

Sky Dragon Little Li looked pleased and felt he should also say a few words:

"Anywhere lacking rain can come to the Cry Dragon Clan and request a dragon according to the amount of rainfall needed."

"Southern Border is our home; a better future depends on everyone!"

Upon hearing this, the demons clapped their hands.

In fact, apart from the Calamity Beast, most of the Demon Race in the Southern Border do not like fighting.

After they return, will things in Southern Border... become more stable?

Although many problems remain that cannot be solved immediately, this is a good start.

"Shouldn't the Prince of Southern Pacification award me a Civilization Award?"

Little Li's lips curled slightly.

Shouldn't this be considered an investment?

After clearing his throat, Li Mo asked again with a serious expression:

"Does anyone have any other suggestions or questions?"

"I have!"

Manbo raised his hand.

"Please speak."

"I suggest that the Peerless Sky Flood Dragon and the Green Phoenix Goddess have a son soon!"

"Puff..."

Li Mo was stunned for a moment, and spat out the tea he had just drunk.

"That's right, the True Dragon bloodline and the True Phoenix bloodline are so powerful even when separated. If they were to have offspring..."

"You know what, you really have to believe it, the fact that they can all wield the Divine Jade means that the Divine Jade approves of them."

"Hiss... that makes sense!"

Are they... a good match?

"Even the Divine Jade has no objections, so who gives you, a demon or monster, to object?"

The demons looked at each other, their eyes revealing wisdom and contemplation.

True Dragon True Phoenix are already this powerful.

Their descendants won't be able to ascend to heaven?

Li Mo: "..."

Little Li never dreamed of this.

He's barely experienced being pressured to get married, and now he's being pressured to have children.

They were still attacked by a group of demons.

I glanced at the Ice Block, but saw the girl still quietly sipping her tea, though her curled fingers betrayed her...

"So everyone, are you still coming or not?"

Sky Dragon Little Li was forced to say goodbye.

But the demon kings were still talking about it with great relish when they left.

"Given time, with the True Dragon and the True Phoenix united, the mere Great Yu will be nothing to fear!"

"Our Demon Race should unite, grow stronger, and create new glories!"

"Do you think the bloodline of True Dragon and True Phoenix should be called Phoenix Dragon or Dragon Phoenix?"

It seems that inducing childbirth is also a tradition of the Demon Race.

Perhaps it's because Demon Race with powerful bloodlines have a harder time producing offspring?

Uncle Murong's prestige continues to rise...

"Brother Li."

Before Li Mo could go back and pack, Murong Xiao called him back. He already had a monk's head with a new scar, indicating that he had officially become a member of the Hanging Temple.

"I'm also leaving Southern Border with the Hanging Temple."

"I didn't expect this at first," Li Mo, a little embarrassed.

Originally, I thought that Murong Xiao would be able to see his parents more often while he was in the Southern Border, but who would have thought that the Hanging Temple was going to move.

"Where there's a will, there's Hanging Temple."

Li Mo looked at him with amusement. "You've only been chanting scriptures for a couple of days, but you're already spouting all sorts of nonsense."

Murong Xiao chuckled and said, "Master said the Hanging Temple flies around everywhere. Maybe we'll get lucky and run into it someday."

After saying that, he became more serious and lowered his voice:

"Brother Li, you must be extremely careful when you return to Clear Abyss Sect from the Southern Border. Without the Abbot Divine Monk, who knows what trouble might arise in the Southern Border?"

"Take this. It was given to me by my master. No matter when or where you are, you can return to the temple in an instant."

He took out a string of Buddhist prayer beads, which faintly emitted a kind of fluctuation similar to that of Sumeru Object, but not exactly the same.

"If Master Heng Yuan gave it to you, would you be punished if you gave it to me?"

"Yes, but it's okay, anyway, Master can't scold me."

"..."

Li Mo looked at Murong Xiao's solemn expression, remained silent for a moment, and then accepted the gift.

"I don't know when we'll meet again."

"I have a scroll of scripture that I cannot understand, so I will give it to you."

He took out a scroll of scripture from his sleeve.
