Elsewhere, the gray-robed elder had already set his sights on Medusa.
He had originally intended to circle around the puppet line from the side and seize Zi Yan first, but Medusa stepped forward, her violet-gold Dou Qi stretching across his path like a serpent's shadow and directly cutting off his way.
The gray-robed elder's gaze darkened.
"Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python, and you dare stand in the way of my Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan?"

The dark-gold phoenix flames and the chill of Yellow Spring annihilated each other.

The Yellow Spring Palm descended. The fire shield caved in, and the gray-robed elder was blasted several steps
