Behind Baohua Hall
Before the garden plots, a tiny figure clad in luxurious golden-red garments was reaching toward the golden peony at the center of the Hundred-Blossom Garden when he seemed to touch something. A sudden change erupted within the garden. The hundred kinds of flowers before him changed abruptly, like a drop of water sending an unusual tremor across a level mirror. The void surged like a tide, and the next instant, countless distortions of space shattered into fragments and came hurtling toward the tiny figure.
At the sight, the figure was greatly startled, fury rising between his brows. A strange, shrill cry, dazzling as blazing light, seemed to ring out from where he stood. A tiny blazing sun soared into the sky, transforming into a golden Three-Legged Divine Crow that shot upward.
Countless golden flames swept through the void, instantly blasting the surrounding Sixfold Return-to-Origin Formation full of holes. At the same time, it transformed into a golden-red streak of light and flew out of Baohua Hall.
Yang Huai saw this scene from afar.
With his Clear Spirit Divine Eyes, he immediately spotted the golden Three-Legged Divine Bird deep within the flames.
Three-Legged Golden Crow!
At a single glance, his heart jolted in shock.
That Three-Legged Golden Crow did not appear very old, merely in its juvenile stage, yet the divine power coursing through its body was already extraordinary. It was likely no weaker than he was now!
He had two choices now: pretend he had seen nothing, or rush forward.
His thoughts raced in an instant. Looking only at the several rare flowers in the flowerbeds beside Baohua Hall that had been plucked nearly bare, Yang Huai's face darkened. There was no choice to be made in this matter.
Yang Huai immediately shouted angrily.
