After Feng Changge uttered his arrogant words and was feeling smug, He Buxian, Lin Yu, and the Fallen Black Phoenix exchanged glances.
Without hesitation, Lin Yu raised his hand again, and the previously sarcastic Feng Changge was suddenly lifted into the air. The black iron chains bound him once more and sealed his ability to speak.
"You can stay up there and clear your head. It would be best if you could make a decision that satisfies both of us. Otherwise, don't even think about coming down."
He Buxian smiled as he looked up at the Fengchang Pavilion in mid-air.
At this moment, his fiery red eyes widened again, but unfortunately, he was unable to speak because his ability to speak was sealed.
"He'll figure it out, but is your method... feasible?" the Fallen Black Phoenix asked.
He Buxian also showed a curious expression upon hearing this. To be honest, he hadn't understood much of what had just been said, and his understanding was only superficial. In his opinion, the flames of the ancient phoenix clan were no different at all.
And speaking of flames, doesn't the Fallen Black Phoenix also have them?
Why can't I use the flames of the Fallen Black Phoenix? Why do I have to use that little guy from Fengchang Pavilion?
After all, the Fallen Black Phoenix is still an ancient phoenix clan. Even if there is a distinction between good and evil among the ancient phoenix clan, the power of source techniques is still similar.
You can't assume that purebred phoenixes use red flames while fallen/black phoenixes use black flames just because the two types of flames are different, can you?
He Buxian was very clear that although these two flames appeared different in form, they were actually both Phoenix True Fire.
In short, He Buxian couldn't see any difference between the two, especially since the Fallen Black Phoenix was much stronger than that little guy from Feng Changge.
To everyone's surprise, Lin Yu shook his head after hearing this.
"The reason I chose this young man is simply because his Phoenix True Fire is fundamentally different from that of ordinary ancient phoenixes."
"I just asked too. It's a flame generated by the special bloodline power of the Supreme Phoenix. Plus, this kid has mutated for some reason, making the flame even more powerful."
"Therefore, even if he is not a true supreme phoenix, his fire power is still stronger than that of an ordinary ancient phoenix!"
"You don't really think the black-robed high priest didn't see through his identity, do you? He just chose not to say anything."
"After all, it's such a special flame. I could easily sense that something was wrong, so how could the black-robed high priest not notice? It's just that this kid is probably the youngest among the ancient phoenix clan who is closest to the supreme phoenix, so the black-robed high priest allowed him to act freely."
"In any case, this kid's presence increases Feng Nianzhi's safety."
Lin Yu Lin Yu said calmly, "Actually, I could tell something was wrong from the way Feng Nianzhi and the black-robed high priest treated Feng Changge before."
However, Lin Yu didn't take it to heart at the time, because he felt it had nothing to do with him, so he didn't investigate further.
But now that I think about it, the black-robed high priest clearly wanted to protect Fengchang Pavilion.
Lin Yu also considered another possibility: what choice would the black-robed high priest make if Feng Nianzhi had never met him and remained sealed away?
The ancient phoenix clan could not possibly support a phoenix lord without power, and Feng Changge was undoubtedly the closest to the supreme phoenix among the entire ancient phoenix clan.
Therefore, it's not surprising that the choice the black-robed high priest might make.
Choosing Fengchang Pavilion was the only option the Black-Robed High Priest could possibly make.
However, now that Feng Nianzhi's seal may be broken, the black-robed high priest no longer cares that Feng Changge has come to protect Feng Nianzhi.
On the contrary, it may be safer for two people to be together.
These intricate details are clearly the secrets of the ancient Phoenix Clan.
As a former member of the ancient phoenix clan, the Fallen Black Phoenix doesn't need much explanation; a little thought is enough to understand the underlying motives. However, He Buxian's situation is quite different.
From the very beginning, he was a complete outsider, only wanting to investigate matters concerning mysterious forces. He was completely clueless about the ancient Phoenix Clan.
As Lin Yu explained it to him, He Buxian felt that the amount of information was simply too much.
"So that means if this kid doesn't agree, we really won't be able to use his flames to retrieve that piece of the Heaven-Mending Fragment?"
He Buxian asked the question, but in reality, she already understood the answer without needing anyone to answer it.
Seeing Feng Changge bound again, He Buxian rubbed his hands together, determined to teach this stubborn brat a lesson and force him to surrender.
Feng Changge was firmly bound by black iron chains, and as he watched He Buxian walk towards him, he felt terrified.
He wanted to struggle, but he was too embarrassed to make such exaggerated movements in front of Lin Yu and the Fallen Black Phoenix, so he could only remain stiff and motionless.
"Hehe, don't worry, I won't do anything to you," He Buxian said with a wicked grin.
Lin Yu and the Fallen Black Phoenix silently looked away, pretending not to have seen what was happening.
After their brief exchange, they had figured out that Feng Changge was stubborn and wouldn't listen to reason. If things continued like this, neither of them had the patience.
However, Lin Yu, as the master of the Primordial Hall, really didn't want to resort to coercion or bribery.
As for the Fallen Black Phoenix, as a former member of the ancient phoenix clan, his pride prevented him from attacking a powerless junior.
Therefore, He Buxian is the best candidate to take action now.
But He Buxian couldn't hold back and made the first move, much to the relief of Lin Yu and the Fallen Black Phoenix.
"Your feathers are quite beautiful, unlike any other phoenix I've ever seen!" He Buxian exclaimed with a mischievous grin.
Bound by the black iron chains, Feng Changge's spiritual power was also restricted, thus it could no longer maintain its human form and transformed into its original form.
At this moment, all the feathers on his body were exposed to He Buxian's hands.
Feng Changge's eyes widened. He clearly didn't know what He Buxian was planning to do, but his intuition told him that it was definitely not something good!
