Chapter 2805: The Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix

Suddenly, a terrifying thought popped into his mind, and he put the meat down, losing his appetite.

No, I must figure out what’s going on.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng glanced at Si Hong, patted Si Hong’s shoulder, and then disappeared from sight in Thousand Miles in One Step. He directly arrived at the top floor of the Myriad Drunk Immortal House. Although his Divine Sense couldn’t penetrate it, he easily unraveled the Formation and walked into this floor.

A pitch-black scene lay ahead, darkness so profound that he couldn’t see his fingers. Lin Feng walked deeper in, discovering three enormous cages over ten zhang tall in the middle of the hall. Staring closely, he was utterly stunned. The cages didn’t hold Demon Beasts but living children whose mouths were sealed and bodies tightly bound. The oldest was barely a teenager, while the youngest were swaddled infants. He never imagined people could be so cruel to use children’s flesh for cooking; it was simply too inhumane.

Seeing this, Lin Feng raised both hands, instantly gathering these children into the Cave Heaven Mansion. He had to save them, and how they would be settled afterward was a later issue. But he realized that if he didn’t destroy the Drunk Immortal Pavilion, saving them would only address the symptom and not the root cause. Other children would also suffer. As he was contemplating this, he felt a surge of powerful Demon Energy attacking him.

"Guest, you’re so rude. Didn’t you see the sign outside saying it’s a restricted area?" A seductive voice reached Lin Feng’s ears. Standing before him was a woman in her thirties, dressed in a light blue gauze dress, with a pair of phoenix eyes staring intently at him. Her voice, though gentle, was imposing.

Lin Feng examined the beautiful woman before him, sensing a strong Demon Clan aura, and was certain she was not Human. He then asked, "Are you the owner here?"

"What of it?" The Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix looked at Lin Feng and said. It had never encountered anyone daring to cause trouble in its store in Mo City. Who was this brash young man? It then shouted, "Let the children out quickly, or I’ll be unkind to you."

"Why are you using children’s flesh to cook dishes?" Lin Feng angrily asked the woman before him. He couldn’t stand such vicious methods; even Demon Beasts shouldn’t act like this.

The beautiful woman looked at Lin Feng, smiled coldly, and said, "You humans are allowed to eat demons, but we can’t eat humans?"

Upon saying this, without waiting for Lin Feng’s reply, she transformed back into her original form. Instantly, a massive bird covered with purple feathers appeared before Lin Feng, looking very much like a Phoenix, but with two plumage on its head, eyes emitting purple light, standing as tall as three people, with wings that almost engulfed the entire wall behind.

Though surprised, Lin Feng then asked, "What is your connection to the Phoenix Clan?"

He could sense the Phoenix Clan aura emanating from this purple bird, but it seemed more evil Demon Energy was emitted, making him curious.

"Don’t mention the Phoenix Clan to me. Let me show you my power first! You’ll regret meddling today." The Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix’s eyes instantly burst with two beams of purple light, then swung its wing more than ten zhang long toward Lin Feng’s direction. Instantly, the walls of the entire floor were demolished by its massive wings.

Seeing this, Lin Feng directly ascended into the air. With a wave of his right hand, the Yuan Energy within the space began to surge violently, instantly forming a Yuan Energy Tidal Wave that charged toward the ridge of the building, tearing the roof of the wine house off, with bricks and tiles flying chaotically in the air.

Lin Feng flew into the air above Mo City, beckoning provocatively at the Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix below.

Seeing Lin Feng dare to provoke it, the Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix became even more furious, transforming into a streak of purple light charging toward the skies. It spread its wings, and layers of faint purple Demon Energy exploded from behind. The Demon Energy surged within the Yuan Energy, turning the sky over Mo City purple, causing the entire wine house to shake violently.

"What’s happening!"

"Is it an earthquake?"

"Oh my, the roof’s all gone!"

...

People eating heartily felt the whole building shaking and put down their chopsticks. They didn’t know what had happened, but looking at the sky and seeing this, everyone was stunned.

Xiao Jiu saw Lin Feng confronting the Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix in the air, without thinking much, instantly ascended into the air, transforming into a giant black dragon in everyone’s eyes. Xiao Jiu’s tail smashed all the pillars inside, and seeing such a colossal creature appear, everyone ran off in a panic. In a flash, the wine house’s guests vanished out of sight.

Xiao Jiu, who was hovering in the air, blocked Lin Feng and said, "Are you sure you want to fight?"

The Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix saw the appearance of a Dragon Clan member before it and immediately halted. It sensed the overwhelming Demon Energy emanating from the Nine Dark Heaven Dragon, and this oppressive force was enough to engulf it without lifting a finger. It hurriedly retracted its wings and trembled as it stopped dozens of zhang away from Lin Feng and Xiao Jiu, watching them with fear.

Lin Feng stepped in front of Xiao Jiu, looked up at the Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix and said, "I don’t want to kill you. Tell me where you came from."

"There’s only a trace of the Phoenix Clan’s bloodline in me, but since I was oppressed by my kind, I escaped and have been hiding in Mo City. By chance, I discovered that the flesh of children is tender and delicious, so I opened this restaurant." Seeing that Lin Feng was willing to listen to its explanation, the Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix explained everything.

Upon hearing the Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix’s words, Lin Feng shook his head helplessly. The methods of this Demon Beast were extremely cruel, and it ought to be killed. However, the immediate task was to return these children to their parents. He then said to the Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix, "Where did you steal these children from?"

"From the surrounding villages," the Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix confessed in a low voice. It now realized its mistake, as all the Yuan Stones it earned over the years were used to find the best Alchemist to refine Elixirs to enhance its powers. However, despite advancing to the rank of Demon Venerable, it remained insignificant in the face of the Dragon Clan.

Lin Feng said to the Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix, "First, take me to return these children to their homes. Afterward, I’ll decide what to do with you, and as for the Myriad Drunk Immortal House, it should be destroyed!"

Hearing that Lin Feng was willing to spare its life, the Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix was immensely grateful and no longer concerned about the Myriad Drunk Immortal House. It kept nodding and transformed into a human form, following Lin Feng and Xiao Jiu downstairs.

Si Hong saw Lin Feng descending and immediately approached. She noticed everyone around had left and didn’t know what had happened. Seeing Lin Feng nod at her, she asked no further questions and followed everyone outside with Tangyuan.

"Boom!"

Lin Feng extended his hand, and the Eternal Divine Flame suddenly appeared in his palm, a ball of colorful flame flickering in his hand. With a gentle flick, the Eternal Divine Flame transformed into a stream of colorful light shooting rapidly towards the Myriad Drunk Immortal House. In an instant, the entire Myriad Drunk Immortal House was engulfed by the Eternal Divine Flame.

Lin Feng then isolated the surrounding area with his Divine Sense, allowing the Eternal Divine Flame to burn only within this range. In the blink of an eye, the Myriad Drunk Immortal House was reduced to a blackened framework, and Mo City would have no Myriad Drunk Immortal House from then on.

The Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix sighed deeply as it gazed at the remnants of the Myriad Drunk Immortal House. It felt a sense of reluctance after all these years, but seeing Lin Feng’s gaze, it turned and said, "You can sit on my back. I’ll take you to return these children home."

Nodding, both individuals and two beasts jumped onto the back of the Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix. Then, its purple wings spread, and it soared into the sky, knowing it might never return to Mo City again.

After flying over ten li, they finally reached a village. Lin Feng suddenly remembered passing by this village before, but it was lifeless at the time, which had puzzled him. After landing, the Purple Feather Abyssal Phoenix respectfully said to Lin Feng, "Most of the children are from this village; I don’t recall where the other children are from."

Lin Feng saw a large drum deep within the village, which seemed to be used for announcing important events. He released the children from his spatial space and instructed Tangyuan to strike the drum.

"Dong dong dong!"

The villagers, upon hearing the drum, peeked cautiously out of their windows. Seeing their children and realizing there was no danger, they hurriedly rushed over. Before long, everyone in the village gathered, and some couples shed tears of joy upon seeing their lost children, with cries echoing through the village.

An elderly man dressed in black approached Lin Feng and said, "Brother, I am the village chief. Did you save these children?"

He hadn’t grasped what had happened; all the children were stolen overnight. As the village chief, he felt a great responsibility; since that day, the village had been in despair, with families grieving and doors and windows shut. He never expected someone kind to return their children.

"Yes, village chief," Lin Feng nodded. Seeing the scene before him, he suddenly recalled memories of being with his parents on Earth, and a wave of sadness washed over him. It had been so many years; his parents were probably no longer alive. His greatest regret was being unable to fulfill his filial duties as their son.

Upon hearing Lin Feng’s reply, the village chief immediately gathered everyone and led them in kneeling to express gratitude to Lin Feng. Witnessing the chief’s actions, villagers, including the rescued children, all knelt in unison, thanking Lin Feng for saving their lives.

Lin Feng quickly helped the village chief up, and at that moment, he felt countless golden specks converging into his body, instantly merging within him. He revealed a faint smile.
