The black-robed high priest stared coldly at the seemingly indifferent fallen black phoenix before him.

He Buxian watched from the side, feeling a headache coming on. No matter what, the Fallen Black Phoenix was now using his brother Feng Yaoyang's body. Even if the two sides really fought, it would be Feng Yaoyang who got hurt!

"What if a fight really breaks out?" He Buxian wasn't aware of the grudges between the Fallen Black Phoenix and the Ancient Phoenix Clan; he was mainly worried about his brother.

However, He Buxian glanced in Lin Yu's direction and saw that he still looked calm and composed, which put him at ease.

For some reason, He Buxian felt a sense of security whenever the Palace Master stood there. Perhaps it was because of their repeated experiences that he had come to fully realize the strength of Lin Yu.

However, Lin Yu was also having some headaches. He understood the feelings of the black-robed high priest and knew his difficulties.

For so many years, he has almost single-handedly supported the ancient phoenix clan. Even when faced with difficulties, he could only rely on his own strength to turn the tide.

It would be a lie to say that the ancient Phoenix Clan never encountered any crises over the past few hundred years; it's just that most of those crises were resolved by the black-robed high priest.

It was thanks to the Black-Robed High Priest's arduous journey that the other members of the ancient Phoenix Clan were able to live a peaceful life.

"Boom!"

A powerful spiritual pressure emanated from the black-robed high priest, and in an instant, a faint red hue appeared around them, and even the temperature seemed to rise slightly.

Seeing the black-robed high priest make the first move, the fallen black phoenix was not willing to be at a disadvantage and instantly released its own spiritual power pressure.

Compared to the black-robed high priest, the spiritual energy released by the fallen black phoenix was a deep black, but its temperature was much hotter.

The two were locked in a fierce battle, each determined to destroy the other.

The Fallen Black Phoenix harbors hatred for these so-called clansmen, after all, it was the previous Phoenix Lord who personally attacked him, leaving him on the verge of death and imprisoning him in the sealed land.

To this day, the Fallen Dark Phoenix doesn't think she's done anything wrong.

The ancient Phoenix clan possessed extraordinary bloodline power and was inherently arrogant, destined to crush others. I was merely doing what I was supposed to do.

In the heart of the Fallen Black Phoenix, the choice of the Black-Robed High Priest was undoubtedly a cowardly one. If he were to lead the ancient Phoenix Clan, then facing external invasion would mean fighting!

Even if the entire clan is wiped out, the dignity of the ancient Phoenix clan must be maintained!

Although the Fallen Black Phoenix had long been expelled from the ancient phoenix clan, he still believed in the pure phoenix bloodline.

Looking at the furious black-robed high priest before him, the Fallen Black Phoenix seemed to recall those deep-seated hatreds, and the various pains he had experienced in the sealed land seemed to reappear before him.

"Old man, I never expected to see you like this, haha! At your age, I wonder if your old bones are still of any use?" The Fallen Black Phoenix laughed loudly.

In fact, being sealed away by the Phoenix Lord was both a blessing and a curse for the Fallen Black Phoenix.

Because it fell into the sealed land, the Fallen Black Phoenix actually escaped the cataclysmic disaster and was able to survive in the Three Thousand Immortal Realms era.

But this incident didn't give the Fallen Black Phoenix a feeling of "surviving a disaster"; he only felt hatred!

He hated himself for not killing the black-robed high priest first, and instead letting him die in the cataclysmic disaster.

Unfortunately, the fallen black phoenix, living in the era of the Three Thousand Immortal Realms, could not reverse time and return to the era of Dao Qi. It could only be pitifully sealed in the Sealed Land, venting its anger on the ancient phoenix clan.

Although he knew that the ancient phoenix clan had changed drastically after the cataclysmic disaster.

Originally, the Fallen Black Phoenix was about to let go of her hatred for the Black-Robed High Priest, but unexpectedly, through a series of coincidences, she found herself back in the Dao Qi era, using Feng Yaoyang's body.

Now is the time to take revenge.

"Hmph, not bad, I am indeed an old man, long past my prime. But killing a beast like you is still more than enough!" The black-robed high priest said with a loud laugh, his gaze towards the fallen black phoenix filled with provocation.

As for the phoenix clansmen following behind the black-robed high priest, seeing that their own high priest was about to make a move, they naturally did not want to be left behind and all released their spiritual power.

Although their spiritual power was insignificant compared to that of the black-robed high priest, they still made their stance clear.

Just as the two sides were about to clash, Lin Yu spoke up leisurely.

"Wait a minute, this is the residence of Daoist Shouyang. Wouldn't it be inappropriate for you to make a move here?"

"High Priest, do not forget why you have come here today."

Lin Yu's words truly jolted the black-robed high priest, who was still in a state of rage.

Hatred was important to the black-robed high priest, but the safety of the Phoenix Lord was even more important to him.

If the high priest in black robes had to choose between seeking revenge against the fallen black phoenix and protecting Feng Nianzhi, he would choose the second option without hesitation.

Fighting the Fallen Black Phoenix is a minor matter, but if it disturbs Daoist Shouyang and affects Feng Nianzhi, that would be a serious matter.

"Everyone has important things to do, so let's not dwell on the past for now," Lin Yu said again.

Under Lin Yu's persuasion, the black-robed high priest, who had originally planned to lead his people to fight the Fallen Black Phoenix, could only suppress his anger and stop releasing his spiritual power.

"Hmph, what an arrogant ancient phoenix clan! I think you're no different from dogs now."

Seeing that the black-robed high priest actually listened obediently to Lin Yu's words, the Fallen Black Phoenix was immediately quite displeased.

In his view, it was acceptable to lose a battle, but for the black-robed high priest to retreat without a fight was the most shameful thing.

Seeing that the high priest in black robes had finally listened, but the fallen black phoenix wasn't going to let it go, Lin Yu immediately waved his hand, and a gust of wind swept past, directly carrying the fallen black phoenix away.

"Alright, I released you here not so you could spout nonsense," Lin Yu said coldly.

He wasn't so polite to the fallen Black Phoenix.
