The Great Elder in the center gave a nod before saying, “I’ll have someone bring the Phoenix Stone over. During this time, let’s talk about a few things.”

Lin Fan gave a nod in response to this since this was what he wanted too.

He still had things to discuss with the Phoenix Race elders, such as the matter with the Qilin Race which was his next destination.

If he obtained the support of the Phoenix Race along with the support of the Dragon Race when meeting with the Qilin Race, there was no doubt that it would make it easier for him.

After all, this was two of the five sacred beast races against a single race. Even if they had some misgivings, they wouldn’t attack them right away with the elders of the two races vouching for Lin Fan.

So they started discussing heading to the Qilin Race after Lin Fan received the Phoenix Stone.

The Great Elders didn’t mind showing support during Lin Fan’s visit to the Qilin Race, but the one thing that they wanted to change was Lin Fan’s schedule. There were still other things that they wanted to do with Xiao Huo, their race’s true descendant who they had just found.

They didn’t want to let Xiao Huo go just yet.

However, that didn’t matter to Lin Fan since he had his own matters to take care of.

So it became a discussion of how long Lin Fan could push back his trip since the Great Elders knew that they couldn’t stop Lin Fan.

Force wasn’t even an option since they couldn’t just hurt Lin Fan or Xiao Huo. Both of them were the most important parts of the prophecy that their ancestor had left behind, so they had to protect them both for the prosperity of the Phoenix Race.

The only thing that they could hope for was that they would be able to convince Lin Fan to delay this by a few days, months, or even years. The longer that they had to keep Lin Fan and Xiao Huo here at their Phoenix Race, the better it would be for them.

To the side, the Dragon Race elders who watched this all revealed bitter smiles since they knew how this was going to go.

They had been through the same thing when Lin Fan was at the Dragon Race.

Lin Fan naturally shut all of this down and was determined to go to the Qilin Race as soon as possible.

Now it was just a matter of how long they could keep Lin Fan here.

There were certain things that they at least had to pass on to Xiao Huo before he left since these were things that their ancestor had left behind for Xiao Huo.

But before they could finish discussing this, the elite guard who had been sent to get the Phoenix Stone came back.  The problem was that this elite guard didn’t come back with the Phoenix Stone, but rather a bitter look on his face.

When the Great Elders saw this, they couldn’t help questioning this elite guard as to why he came back empty handed.

The elite guard explained, “It’s the Blue Phoenix Tribe, they are refusing to give up the Phoenix Stone.”

“What?” The three Great Elders couldn’t help revealing confused looks that had a trace of annoyance in them.

This was a direct order not just from the three of them, but from the entire elder hall of the Phoenix Race. That should hold great importance in the Phoenix Race, but now the Blue Phoenix Tribe that was holding the Phoenix Stone actually refused to hand it over, this was a clear sign of going against the elders.

Normally, this would cause the elders to fly into a rage and send someone to take care of the Blue Phoenix Tribe, but they couldn’t do that in front of Lin Fan.

If they were to show that there was discord in the Phoenix Race, that would be a sign of weakness that they were showing Lin Fan.

So they couldn’t just settle matters with force like they normally would have done.

Instead, they had to figure out a way to settle this secretly.

But when Feng Ling heard that it was the Blue Phoenix Tribe who had ignored the orders of the elders, she couldn’t help knitting her brows.

While the Great Elders were still silently deciding what to do about the Blue Phoenix Tribe, Feng Ling suddenly asked, “Who’s the current head of the Blue Phoenix Tribe?”

Everyone was surprised that Feng Ling had spoken suddenly.

She had been silent the entire time and since she wasn’t the main character here, everyone had almost forgotten that she was here.

After all, she was the mother of Feng Yu who would be marrying Xiao Huo. This status was enough to give her some say in this council.

At the same time, it also seemed like she was close with Lin Fan, the Void God’s successor. It wasn’t that kind of relationship, it was one where they seemed like comrades who had fought together.

That was technically true since they had fought against the same enemy back in the Galactic Humanity Alliance.

The elders were confused why Feng Ling had asked this question, but Feng Huang and Feng Tian had an understanding look on their faces. At the same time, they also looked like they were afraid of something.

One of the Great Elders said in the end, “It’s still the same person that was in charge of the Blue Phoenix Tribe as when you left the Red Phoenix Tribe.”

During the time that they had been here, the Great Elders had already had the elite guards search up the situation between Feng Ling and the Red Phoenix Tribe. After all, they wanted all the information that they could get that was related to this situation so that they could make the best judgement.

But they couldn’t understand what the connection was between Feng Ling and the Blue Phoenix Tribe that she would ask this.

Feng Ling knitted her brows even more when she heard this, but then she asked, “Is there a new young master of the Blue Phoenix Tribe?”

The Great Elders were still confused when they heard this, but then one of the elders on the side said, “That’s right. A few years ago, the Blue Phoenix Tribe had announced that they had found a new successor to the head. If I remember correctly, it was someone named Bing Fu.”

When Feng Ling heard this name, she couldn’t help knitting her brows even more.

Even a fool would be able to tell that Feng Ling recognized this name and had some kind of history with this person. And based on the way that she had reacted, it shouldn’t be a good history.

Lin Fan just silently waited for Feng Ling to explain herself.

Feng Ling saw this and with a sigh, she directly said, “Bing Fu is Xiao Yu’s father.”𝑜𝓋𝔩xt.𝑐𝑶𝔪

As soon as this was said, everyone understood what the situation was.

But if the Blue Phoenix Tribe had denied the request to give back the Phoenix Stone because they knew something…then that meant that there was a mole in the elder hall that was providing the Blue Phoenix Tribe with information…

When this thought passed through their minds, all of the elders and the Great Elders couldn’t help looking at each other with suspicious looks.

They just looked at each other as if they were suspecting each other before one of the Great Elders suddenly clapped their hands and everyone came back to their senses.

They all stopped looking at each other, but there was still doubt in the hearts of all the elders and Great Elders. They just knew that they couldn’t suspect each other right now in front of the Void God’s successor.

But before they could decide anything, Lin Fan suddenly said, “Let’s go to the Blue Phoenix Tribe.”

“Huh?” All of the elders and Great Elders revealed confused and stunned looks when they heard this.

By all right, this should be the last place that they went right now.

After all, they didn’t know just what the Blue Phoenix Tribe was planning.

The Blue Phoenix Tribe should know about the true descendant, so they would want to control him as well since that would increase their position in the Phoenix Race. It was unknown what kind of things they would do to achieve this goal, so the Blue Phoenix Tribe was the most dangerous place for the two of them right now.

But Lin Fan wanted to go to the Blue Phoenix Tribe?

The elders and Great Elders all tried to convince him otherwise, but Lin Fan was firmly set on heading there.

During this time, Feng Tian and Feng Huang had both moved over to where Feng Ling was.

They wanted to talk to her about Bing Fu, but she didn’t want to hear any of it.

She just waited until all of the elders gave up on trying to convince Lin Fan to come over to him. She looked right at him and said, “Thank you.”

Lin Fan gave a nod and then said, “Go and end this. Leave your regret behind.”

Feng Ling looked back at Feng Huang and Feng Tian before turning to look at Feng Yu with Xiao Huo.

An even more determined look appeared in her eyes as she said, “I will.”
