After those members of the ancient phoenix clan slunk away, the Fallen Black Phoenix spoke coldly, her tone full of anger at their lack of ambition and sorrow for their misfortune.
In his view, if one wants to pursue ultimate power, then one should be thorough and completely transform the abilities of the ancient phoenix clan.
However, the high priest in black robes clearly did not think so.
It was precisely because of their differing ideologies that the Fallen Black Phoenix was expelled from the ancient Phoenix clan.
In fact, even now, the Fallen Phoenix believes that its strategy is flawless.
Hearing what the Fallen Black Phoenix said, Lin Yu turned to look at him, but saw a hint of worry in his eyes.
Lin Yu smiled slightly. This Fallen Black Phoenix, despite his vicious words, actually cares more about the life and death of the ancient phoenix clan than anyone else.
Although he didn't say anything nice, Lin Yu could clearly see from his expression his worry about the future of the ancient phoenix clan.
Moreover, the Fallen Black Phoenix, having been sealed away, remained in the Three Thousand Immortal Realms era. He knew that if things continued this way, this world would inevitably face a cataclysmic calamity sooner or later.
If the strength of the entire clan is not properly developed, then the ancient phoenix clan will only be destroyed in the face of disaster!
It is precisely because of this consideration that the Fallen Black Phoenix actively helps Lin Yu find the fragments of the Heaven-Mending Piece.
After all, if there really were no fragments of the Heaven-Mending Fragment, then the entire world of the Dao Qi era would truly be teetering on the brink of collapse, and might not have had any room for resistance before the cataclysmic calamity, and would have been easily shattered.
"I think you foresaw this. Even if Lord Phoenix fully recovers, the ancient Phoenix clan will still experience a period of decline. Are you worried that if things continue like this, the ancient Phoenix clan might not even be able to hold out for this period?" Lin Yu said with a smile.
How could he not see through the Fallen Black Phoenix's little schemes?
Despite his usual demeanor of harboring deep hatred for the ancient phoenix clan, the Fallen Black Phoenix is actually quite worried about the survival of his race.
Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, He Buxian's mouth dropped open, and he stared in disbelief at the Fallen Black Phoenix.
If Lin Yu hadn't said it, he really wouldn't have imagined that this fallen black phoenix could have such an arrogant side.
He had just thought that the fallen black phoenix truly looked down on the members of the ancient phoenix clan.
Lin Yu directly voiced her concerns, and coupled with He Buxian's frank gaze, the Fallen Black Phoenix couldn't take it anymore and awkwardly looked away.
"Nonsense! It's good that the ancient Phoenix clan was wiped out, what does it have to do with me!"
Although the words were vicious, the more he spoke, the weaker his voice became, making them sound rather harmless.
"I never knew you had such a delicate mind," He Buxian said with admiration, as he put his arm around the Fallen Black Phoenix's shoulder.
Before this, she had always regarded the Fallen Dark Phoenix as a villain who had taken over her brother's body.
But only now did he realize that although this guy had the arrogance inherited from the ancient phoenix clan, he also had a delicate and soft side deep down.
The Fallen Black Phoenix felt disgusted by He Buxian's gaze and shoved him away without any politeness, saying, "Get out, get out, get away from me!"
"Lord of the Palace, are you really not going to reconsider the bait?" He Buxian continued to ask Lin Yu, worried that, given the situation just now, Lin Yu might have thought that his words were just a joke and that he hadn't taken them to heart at all.
However, that result was the result of He Buxian's careful consideration.
In fact, right now, anyone other than Lin Yu who holds a fragment of the Heaven-Mending Piece and tries to lure the mysterious power could potentially take the bait.
However, the person holding the fragment of the Heaven-Mending Stone is very likely to be attacked by that mysterious power.
In He Buxian's view, even if that mysterious force really attacked the young man of the ancient phoenix clan, he, Lin Yu, and the fallen black phoenix were all there, so the young man's life would not be in danger.
Having had such an experience, it will allow the young people of the ancient phoenix clan to truly understand the dangers of the world and realize that their strength is nothing in this world.
Lin Yu naturally understood He Buxian's meaning; she certainly didn't intend to be so unethical.
These members of the ancient Phoenix Clan were, after all, talents carefully selected by the Black-Robed High Priest from among the ancient Phoenix Clan.
They came here to protect Feng Nianzhi. Now Lin Yu is using them as bait. Not only would the Black-Robed High Priest not agree to it, but even Feng Nianzhi herself wouldn't agree to it.
Although Feng Nianzhi looks young, she already possesses the awareness of the Phoenix Lord. Seeing her people facing such great danger, Feng Nianzhi will certainly not let it go.
"No, don't even think about it now," Lin Yu said.
Hearing Lin Yu's resolute tone, He Buxian knew that the matter was hopeless, and immediately felt somewhat dejected.
He then murmured, "I've been chasing that mysterious force for so long, all for revenge, but now, as I get closer and closer to it, I realize that I'm no match for it with my own strength alone."
"Who could have imagined that the fragment of the Heaven-Mending Stone, now imbued with sentience, would possess such terrifying power!"
He Buxian's words sounded like he was talking to himself, yet also like he was speaking to the Fallen Black Phoenix and Lin Yu.
The Fallen Black Phoenix was initially somewhat displeased that this guy was going to push his own people out, but seeing He Buxian's dejected appearance, she didn't know what to say.
Lin Yu sighed inwardly upon hearing this. He had noticed that He Buxian was under a lot of pressure long before, but he had never pointed it out.
It's a good thing that He Buxian has spoken up on his own initiative, so it won't become a knot in his heart.
This time, arriving in the Dao Qi era has indeed given Lin Yu many new experiences.
Back in the Three Thousand Immortal Realms era, Lin Yu had always had a smooth and successful life. In the fantasy world, he possessed the Hongmeng System, which allowed him to accomplish countless things and easily surpass everyone else.
Now that the Dao Qi era has arrived, after Hong discovered that the power of the Meng system had been greatly weakened, Lin Yu suddenly realized that he still had many shortcomings.
"It's good that we can make up for our shortcomings after we've identified them!"
