While Ming Feng and the others resisted the Nine-Headed Green Phoenix Clan, they had also been searching for other Undying Underworld Phoenix clans, first in hopes of obtaining the inheritance.
Second, they sought help. After hearing the name of the Nine-Headed Green Phoenix Clan, who would be willing to offend such a powerful enemy?
However, the true Undying Underworld Phoenix Clan, one born from the same source, would never willingly watch their own kind be enslaved. Even if they could not defeat the enemy, they could still devise ways to help from outside.
When Ming Feng's branch of the Undying Underworld Phoenix Clan had first learned of the Heavenly Demon Grassland long ago, they too had held hope. Yet after making inquiries, they had found no one who had heard of the Undying Underworld Phoenix Clan appearing there, or even in the North Pasture Realm.
Moreover, their clan had always been in dire straits. Including Ming Feng, the successive Supreme Great Elders had been forced to devote most of their energy to survival and cultivation.
Thus, they could only place their hopes on more practical matters. In particular, after Ming Feng later obtained other clues and spared no lifespan in his deductions, he ultimately discovered traces of the inheritance and chose the relatively reliable Cangxuan Realm.
