Chapter 825: Chu Junran’s Begging

Peace, which lasted for nearly a thousand years in the first empire in the southern region of the continent, was finally broken by the Phoenix Temple.

In today's Fengyan Dynasty, people no longer dare to gossip. Even the royal family feels that it is in danger and has to cling to the power of Fengyan Temple.

A strong smell of blood quickly spread throughout the country after the man named Bai Chen returned.

…

In a private restaurant, a strong man and a woman in a red dress sat across from each other at the table, looking at each other with complicated emotions in their eyes.

"Junran, why did you come all the way to Baimu Village to intercept me just for that brat?" The man looked directly at the spicy fried rabbit head on the table, showing no appetite.

In front of him, Chu Junran looked like an ice lotus blooming for the first time, with a graceful little face carrying a touch of sadness.

She picked up a piece of rabbit meat with her chopsticks and handed it to the man's bowl. Then she looked at him with a begging look: "Brother Lingcan, grandpa ordered you to get Bai Chen's meat this time." Life, do you...really want to kill him?"

"What, you feel bad?" Ling Can looked at the rabbit meat in the bowl without moving his chopsticks.

"I know you don't like him, but after all, we have experienced so much together, so when I ask you..."

"Don't beg me!"

Ling Can's sleeves flicked, knocking the table full of delicacies to the ground, his eyes filled with anger.

"Brother Lingcan...?"

Chu Junran covered her neck with her hands, her phoenix eyes no longer looked as cold and arrogant as usual.

Seeing this, Ling Can became even more furious: "Junran, take a good look at yourself. How can you look like a phoenix from the Phoenix Temple now? You will be in seclusion in seven days. This time, you will be in seclusion. Soul Refining, it will determine whether you can succeed your grandfather after you leave seclusion! Now instead of preparing with all your heart, you have put down all your pride and begged me, just for that one man?!"

"I'm sorry, I really... care about him." Chu Junran clutched her skirt and lowered her head.

"Care about him? What about the Phoenix Temple! What does the Phoenix Temple mean to you! You should also know that that kid's cultivation speed is no worse than yours. If I let him go again, once he enters the Star Sea Realm, he will be beaten. When I come to the Phoenix God Palace, are you going to watch your home being completely destroyed by him?"

"He won't. He will never come here. As long as we release Miao Lao and Jian Chi..."

"Let go?" Ling Can couldn't help but chuckle: "Oh, my sister Tianfeng, you were so smart back then, but now you talk like an ignorant woman! If we let those two people go, what will happen to the outside world? What will they say? They will say that I, the Phoenix God Palace, am afraid of Bai Chen, the God of Death, and I am scared! Do you think the Phoenix King will make such a stupid decision - wake up!"

After slapping the table and getting up, Ling Can didn't want to waste another word with her, so he stood up and walked out.

When he reached the door, he paused and looked back again: "Silly sister, your responsibility is to revive the Phoenix Temple. My responsibility is to remove all obstacles for you. Bai Chen, he must die!"

After finishing speaking, he finally walked out of the room.

Chu Junran sat there with dull eyes, looking at the food on the floor, and finally shed tears.

"Bai Chen, you won't really attack my Phoenix Temple, will you?"

…

Hengduan Mountains.

Periphery.

"Quickly, vigorously, release smoke bombs!"

"No, no, the smoke bomb has been watered by rain and cannot be used."

"what--"

In the ancient forest where the heavy rain was pouring, more than thirty figures were desperately besieging a mad first-order monster.

However, because the rain was so heavy, their weapons were hindered. This siege made the monster even more crazy. With a few raised palms, it instantly tore apart the people who were charging forward.

"Leader——"

Seeing the man in command, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and the other members of the mercenary group felt as if they had been struck by lightning.

Facing the monsters, they relied on their rich experience to know that if they fled, they would die more miserably.

But if I don’t run away, is there any chance of winning now?

"Yeah, fight it!"

As a cannon attacker, when he saw his companions fall one by one, he finally put down the cannon. With a slight bow of his strong body, he rushed towards the ferocious beast.

"Ouch——"

The monster roared and swiped its huge claws. The strong-looking man was instantly torn into a bloody mist.

"this!"

When the people behind saw this bloody scene, the fighting spirit they had just raised quickly withered.

"Could it be said that today is the end of our Fire Mercenary Group!"

Less than half of the remaining people were already disheartened. They had a deep brotherly love for each other, and they all hugged each other when they were dying.

At this moment, two lights and shadows, one black and one green, suddenly flashed above their heads.

They felt as if there were two dark winds blowing through the rain forest, but when they raised their heads, the ferocious monster had already bulged eyes and its head was in a different place...

…

The strong wind whipped up the increasingly fierce rain, splashing a white mist over the forest that obscured the view.

Bai Chen and Tang Qin were galloping through the rain forest, their eyes extremely determined.

Their bodies always exude a faint glow, and when the heavy rain falls around their bodies, they will be bounced away by the weird light.

So even though the rain was heavy enough to obscure their sight, they still kept their clothes dry and not contaminated by a drop of rainwater.

"Brother Bai Chen, you are becoming more and more kind-hearted." Tang Qin flew through the heavy rain with a smile on his lips.

Hearing this, Bai Chen touched his nose and shrugged nonchalantly: "I was just passing by. I made a move by the way. I can only say that those people are lucky."

"Pfft, you've done a good thing and still don't admit it, you're not honest at all~"

"Am I not honest? Then why don't we find a cave and... communicate in depth~"

"Well."

Bai Chen just made a joke casually, but Tang Qin almost bit his lip and quickly turned his hot face to the side.

During those three days and three nights, was there still little communication?

This idiot can't remember anything...

Just when Tang Qin was shy and secretly mischievous, there was an extremely terrifying fluctuation of spiritual energy in front of him, and in an instant, a large vortex-shaped water wave was shaken under the heavy rain.

Staring at the extremely exaggerated scene in front of him, Bai Chen's eyes fell on the orangutan standing in the air.

"This is... a sixth-level fire attribute monster. Is this what Senior Zhou was talking about?!"

Hearing Bai Chen's words, Tang Qin's beautiful eyes widened in disbelief: "But why does it appear here? This is the middle region of the Hengduan Mountains!"
