Upon hearing Feng Changge's words, the Fallen Black Phoenix was the most surprised person.

As a former true member of the ancient phoenix clan, he naturally knew that although they all possessed the bloodline of the ancient phoenix, there was a huge difference between a true member of the ancient phoenix clan and an ordinary demon beast that only possessed a portion of the bloodline power!

Although all birds in the world originally shared the same ancestor, the different concentrations of bloodline power within them led to a vast difference in strength between the two types of demonic beasts.

However, the ancient phoenix bloodline power within Feng Changge's body was extremely pure and not chaotic, so much so that even the Fallen Black Phoenix never doubted his identity at first.

However, the Fallen Black Phoenix makes that judgment simply because he is a member of the ancient phoenix clan, and therefore is extremely sensitive to the power of bloodlines.

Lin Yu, on the other hand, perceives a cultivator primarily through their source power. Therefore, upon first seeing the Phoenix Pavilion, he could sense that the young man before him was exactly the same as the guy he had encountered at the Phoenix Tomb!

"I also inherited the true fire of the ancient phoenix, but the flame is not pure. However, the flame has undergone some mutation, so although the flame is different, its power is actually greater." Feng Changge said weakly about his situation.

This has always been his biggest secret; if it weren't for this reason, the black-robed high priest wouldn't have arranged for him to be placed in the Phoenix Tomb.

The Phoenix Tomb is a secluded place, and even fewer cultivators would notice the unusual situation at Phoenix Pavilion. The arrangement by the black-robed high priest can be seen as intentional.

"What you inherited is the bloodline of the Supreme Clan," the Fallen Black Phoenix suddenly said, staring intently at Feng Changge.

Those dark eyes looked at Feng Changge, filled with scrutiny.

The Fallen Black Phoenix suddenly realized why she hadn't noticed anything unusual at first!

It turns out that Feng Changge's body contains a bloodline power similar to that of Feng Nianzhi. Therefore, even if the bloodline power is only a tiny bit, it can still reach a level that is extremely similar to the bloodline power of the ancient phoenix clan.

He might be able to deceive others, but he could never deceive the Fallen Black Phoenix. Feng Changge heard the Fallen Black Phoenix merely give a cold snort and did not reply further.

Clearly, he was not the true Supreme Phoenix, but merely possessed some of the Supreme Phoenix's bloodline.

The Supreme Phoenix's bloodline power is extremely strong; even a small portion of it can make him appear like an ordinary ancient phoenix.

As for how she ended up like this, Feng Changge didn't elaborate.

Fortunately, Lin Yu didn't intend to press the matter further. He simply said, "Lend me this fire tomorrow; I have something important to take care of."

Lin Yu's seemingly mystical tone had no effect on Feng Changge; he merely frowned.

Although Lin Yu already knows its secret, it will absolutely not agree if Lin Yu wants to use its power to do anything that might harm the ancient phoenix clan.

Moreover, given Feng Changge's personality, he would never compromise or submit so easily.

He hadn't forgotten how Lin Yu had treated him, and he was determined to find a way to get revenge.

Seemingly realizing that Lin Yu wasn't interested in his background, Feng Changge straightened his back and said sarcastically, "You're so powerful, even if all of us from the ancient Phoenix Clan were tied together, we might not be your match."

"So that's it? You need my help? That's hilarious!"

"What merit do I have to deserve the honor of helping you?"

The more Feng Changge talked, the more smug he became, thinking to himself, "So even you have times when you need my help."

They treated me like that just now, and now they remember me? I'm going to get my revenge no matter what.

My Fengchang Pavilion is not someone you can just kick aside or replace as you please!

Feng Changge thought to himself.

Seeing Feng Changge's sarcastic and strange expression, He Buxian was so angry he gritted his teeth and said irritably, "Where do you get so many questions?"

"Do you know how much our Palace Master helped your ancient Phoenix Clan? Your Phoenix Lord now has hope of breaking the seal, isn't it all thanks to our Palace Master's intervention?"

"Without the intervention of the Palace Master, who knows when your Phoenix Lord would be able to break the seal!"

"The Lord of the Palace has done so much for you, and now you're already unhappy about just asking you to repay some interest?"

He Buxian spoke without any politeness. He might not be a match for that mysterious power, but dealing with this arrogant brat in front of him was more than enough.

He was particularly displeased with Feng Changge's swaggering attitude; arrogance and pride are only one word apart, yet they are worlds apart.

Although it is known that pride is in the nature of the ancient phoenix clan, Feng Changge is clearly too proud.

In front of this bastard, even the Fallen Black Phoenix's personality seemed perfectly normal.

When He Buxian first met the Fallen Black Phoenix, he was quite dissatisfied with his arrogant attitude. However, after getting to know him better, he discovered that among the entire phoenix clan, the Fallen Black Phoenix was actually quite humble!

Of course, what He Buxian didn't know was that the reason the Fallen Black Phoenix had become more restrained was entirely because Lin Yu was right beside him.

It was precisely because Lin Yu had dealt with her severely before that the Fallen Black Phoenix became much more humble.

"How dare you threaten me with the Phoenix Lord? Just because I didn't help, you bastards are going to settle personal scores under the guise of public duty!"

"The reason this guy is helping Lord Phoenix is all because he took the sacred artifact of our ancient Phoenix clan, the Phoenix Essence Blood! That's a priceless treasure, something only our ancient Phoenix clan possesses!"

"Who do you think you are, to point fingers at our ancient Phoenix Clan?" Feng Changge put his hands on his hips, raised his nose, and stared arrogantly at He Buxian.

Lin Yu and the Fallen Black Phoenix are one thing, but He Buxian is clearly just an ordinary human cultivator, yet he dares to get involved, spouting nonsense and trying to use the news to coerce Lin Yu into working for him.

Do you really think you're that stupid to fall for something like that?!

When the black-robed high priest left, he only told them to treat Lin Yu with respect, but he didn't say he would help him solve any problems. He was unwilling to help so easily!
