Chapter 127: The Miserable Heavenly Demon Phoenix

"Your Excellency, the Vice Pavilion Master is waiting in the main hall. Elder Wang will lead you all inside!" Less than a quarter of an hour later, the Langya Pavilion Disciple who had gone to report returned and said, cupping his hands. Following him was an Elder of Langya Pavilion.

"What? Your Vice Pavilion Master actually won't come out personally to welcome this Elder?" Huang Yue seemed to have suffered some great insult and immediately said loudly: "A mere descendant and remnant born of a traitor to our clan and a Human,

daring to be so disrespectful to our clan—do you really think your wings have hardened?"

"Elder, watch your words!" the middle-aged Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan member behind Huang Yue said hurriedly, breaking into a cold sweat. Why on earth did the Clan Leader send such a brainless thing out? He really thinks this is inside the clan!

Daring to cause trouble in front of a Saint Realm sect like Langya Pavilion with only the cultivation of a Half-Saint, and even insulting the wife of a Dou Sheng powerhouse—is he tired of living?

Even if others fear the power of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan and might not dare to truly kill the beasts, this mission is eighty percent likely to fail!

Then, the middle-aged man glanced toward the direction of Langya Pavilion, and his heart skipped a beat. He saw that the Langya Pavilion Elder opposite them had a look of chilling murderous intent in his eyes, and a Token had appeared in his hand without anyone noticing.

"Since you old thing don't want to live, then this Elder will send you to experience the beauty of the Yellow Springs Road," that Langya Pavilion Elder said indifferently.

"Hmph, this Elder would like to see what is so remarkable about a sect led by such a remnant." At this moment, Elder Huang Yue was exceptionally stubborn and remained unrelenting.

It's over!

"This Elder, please wait..." In his desperation, the middle-aged man stepped directly past Huang Yue, but it was already too late...

He saw Elder Wang inject a stream of Dou Qi into the black Token in his hand, and the originally unremarkable black Token emitted a faint icy blue light.

Subsequently, the wind and clouds above Langya Pavilion shifted, dark clouds gathered, and a Thunderstorm flashed through from time to time. Finally... a light barrier descended directly, covering the group from the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan.

"Hmph,

petty tricks, daring to put on a show in front of this old man," Elder Huang Yue said with disdain, sensing the weak energy within the light barrier.

Then he curled his hand into a claw,

and a giant energy hand grabbed toward the light barrier above. However, this action of Elder Huang Yue only drew sneers from the people of Langya Pavilion.

This old man is indeed a brainless idiot; a mere Half-Saint, actually daring to attack the great formation of Langya Pavilion.

Sure enough, to Huang Yue's utter horror, the massive, imposing hand was instantly swallowed the moment it touched the light barrier, not even causing a ripple.

"If you can come out alive from inside, you people of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan will be qualified to speak with our Vice Pavilion Master," Elder Wang said coldly, amidst the terrified gazes of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan.

The Vice Pavilion Master was indeed right; this Elder Huang Yue had no intention of talking properly with Langya Pavilion at all.

Since that was the case, they didn't need to be polite; just giving them a lesson first would suffice. It was just a question of how many of those people would survive.

As for the possibility of the opponent breaking through the formation, it was ignored by Elder Wang. Did they really think their Langya Pavilion formation was some inferior product?

This was personally set up by the Pavilion Master back then; dealing with one Half-Saint and four Dou Zuns was easy and pleasant.

Elder Wang simply sat down on the ground, waiting quietly for these "honored guests" to appear.

One hour later, the formation was withdrawn, revealing several disheveled figures. Everyone had lost their original luster; they were either charred black all over,

or their bodies were covered in frost and stiff all over.

That Elder Huang Yue was the most miserable; his clothes were tattered,

and every time he coughed, black smoke would puff from his mouth. His aura was withered and listless, no longer the arrogance he had when he first appeared—a typical case of receiving special attention.

"Yo-ho, you all actually survived? It seems you people have decent strength!" At this moment, Elder Wang's somewhat mocking voice came from the side, and the members of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan looked over with lingering fear.

"This Elder, we truly came without malice. We hope Langya Pavilion will see the truth!" Just as Elder Huang Yue was about to say something, the middle-aged man spoke up instantly.

He had finally figured it out; this was a show of force from Langya Pavilion! He estimated that they hadn't intended to kill them. Otherwise, with just the few of them... none of them would have been able to run!

Recalling the suffering they endured after being trapped in that place—lightning and storms—even as a Magic Beast with a powerful physique, he was still shivering now.

Therefore, the middle-aged man dared not let Huang Yue's foul mouth continue. He was truly worried that he wouldn't be able to walk out of the gates of Langya Pavilion!

Or rather...

He didn't seem to have even entered the gates of Langya Pavilion yet.

And Elder Huang Yue, under this show of force, seemed to have learned his lesson and did not open his mouth to offend anyone, remaining silent on the side.

"Have you thought it through, Elder Huang Yue?" Elder Wang did not respond, but turned to look at the arrogant Huang Yue.

"You..." Huang Yue was furious. How could he not know that this Elder Wang was intentionally humiliating him? But the situation was stronger than the person; one must stand straight when being beaten.

In the end, he could only say, under the fearful gazes of his many clansmen: "This Elder is here representing the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan to cooperate with Langya Pavilion; naturally, I come with good intentions."

Although he didn't nod and admit his mistake, this was already rare and commendable. Compared to the previous "remnant" at every turn, it was undoubtedly much more polite.

One can only say that this Elder Huang Yue had never suffered the harsh beatings of society before!

"Good, then please come in, everyone." Elder Wang also revealed a smile and led the way for them.

Finally, Huang Yue and the others met the target of this mission in the Langya Pavilion main hall—Yi Huang.

At this moment, Yi Huang was looking at the members of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan with a smile. Apparently, she knew about the news that the latter had been taught a lesson, and her mood was much more pleasant.

"I am the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan, Huang Yue. I have met Vice Pavilion Master Yi Huang." At this moment, Huang Yue had returned to normal.

Although the other party's attitude was not very good, Yi Huang did not care. The two were inherently incompatible; it would be strange if he were truly smiling.

"I wonder what brings Elder Huang Yue here?" Yi Huang said with a forced smile.

"This Elder is here for the cooperation between our two houses," Huang Yue said with a depressed look. Originally, he was strongly opposed to this so-called cooperation. Yi Huang's affairs had once caused a huge stir in the Central Plains; now that they were taking the initiative to speak, weren't they losing the upper hand?

But the Clan Leader had spoken personally, and his small arms could not twist the thighs!

"Cooperation? How to cooperate?" Yi Huang asked with a serious expression.

Although the relationship between Langya Pavilion and the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan was quite bad, that was mostly due to the personal grievances between her and the Heavenly Demon Phoenix. Langya Pavilion itself did not have a direct conflict of interest with the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan.

Over so many years, she had let go of those things. Although the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan had deep hatred for her, she, Xiao Han, and Ye Jianxin had also caused the other side no small amount of trouble back then.

The culprit at that time had also been killed by her own hands, so it was basically considered even. If the other side truly had sincerity, then putting these things aside and cooperating properly was not out of the question.
