"Protect Brother Ye!"
"Who dares lay a hand on Captain Ye?!"
A phoenix cry rang out as frost and flames erupted. The two of them almost simultaneously blocked the path of the crimson wind.
"Anyone who stands in my way dies!!"
The crimson wind howled, sweeping them both inside.
The next moment, a phoenix cry rang out from within the crimson wind. Frost and flames spiraled into the sky, and then two figures were hurled away. They were none other than Lord Qi Ba Jiu and Captain Wu.
"If I still had my peak strength, I wouldn't be in such a sorry state!" Lord Qi Ba Jiu felt his body growing weaker. The frost and flames in his eyes slowly faded. He tried to let Tail take control of his body, but Tail refused from within him.
"This child... Keep this up, and you really will die!"
Compared to Lord Qi Ba Jiu's sorry state, Captain Wu was faring better, but there was no hope of stopping the crimson wind again.
Just then...
The huge flock of Black Rain Clan black-bone kites in the night sky suddenly seemed to receive an order. They dived furiously toward the crimson wind.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
Like a bone-and-flesh shredding machine, every Black Rain Clan aberration that dived down was reduced to scraps of flesh the moment it struck the crimson wind, shredded to pieces!
Before long, a great heap of mangled corpses had accumulated on the ground. But in exchange, the Phoenix Queen's advance had truly been halted, leaving her unable to spare any attention to help the Phoenix King.
"Go! Night Dawn!!" Ox Seat shouted, his voice brimming with hope.
"Human Martial Artist, it's up to you!!" The Second Prince of the Black Rain Clan said something no one could understand.
