If he were to fight Phoe now, he would definitely lose. However, the battle was over, and Phoe had lost. She should keep her promise and leave with him. Himmel Soan found his spiritual essence well-spent.
“Are you sure about this? I don’t feel I’m concealed. Are you sure it’ll work? What if they notice me when they’re here?” Phoe asked anxiously.
Firey got displeased. “My master has told you it’ll be fine. Why are you so paranoid? Shall I throw you out and let those people discover you? Will you regret asking so many questions then? You talk even more than me!”
Phoe didn’t react to Firey’s words. She didn’t want to get thrown out. That couldn’t happen!
She decided to give it a go. She didn’t have any better choice anyway. She couldn’t give up on this chance.
!!
That man could change the terrain and turn everything back to what it used to be. With that kind of power, he might actually be able to make her invisible.
However, she was still worried.
“Answer my question after they’re gone,” said Himmel Soan.
With Phoe agreeing to stay with him, he could soon get the answers. There was no need to rush her. He had waited for so many years. A few more minutes wouldn’t make a difference.
The powerful energy soon approached them. There was a dragon with red wings, a tiger with two heads, and beasts like bats, spiders, wolves, and lions.
There were twenty sacred beasts in total, and they all turned into humans when they landed. A hubbub of discussion started.
“What happened?” the two-headed tiger asked.
“How are we supposed to know?” said a wolf with a horn on its head.
“That’s right. We all just got here. Your question is pointless,” said the spider.
“Only the fire phoenix isn’t here. She’s probably the culprit!”
“Again? She’s making trouble all the time! We should kick her out!”
“Dragon, are you going to stop us again? Did you see what happened? Are you still going to defend her?”
The red dragon fell silent. He had heard similar things many times, but he had protected the fire phoenix every single time. Without him, the others would have killed her already.
He was the most capable one, so the others didn’t dare say anything when he took the fire phoenix under his wings. But after so many times, he couldn’t bring himself to do it anymore.
“Have you figured out what’s going on? Even if the fire phoenix isn’t here, you can’t blame everything on her. Are you making her a scapegoat?
“Shouldn’t we at least figure out what happened first?” The red dragon retorted.
A four-winged bat said, “Isn’t it obvious what happened? Can’t you tell from the smoke and the shaking ground?”
“That’s right. We saw that mushroom cloud. The fire phoenix must have done major damage! We can’t forgive her!”
“Luckily, that noise didn’t disturb ‘them,’ or we’ll all be in trouble!”
All eyes were on the three-eyed cat when he mentioned “them.” Most of the group didn’t like that word. “Them” was a taboo that no one dared bring up. Mentioning it would upset everybody here.
The three-eyed cat knew he had said the wrong words and immediately apologized.
The red dragon said, “We felt the ground shaking and saw the mushroom cloud, but now that we’re here, we can’t find any signs of that incident, can we?
“Since nothing has happened, there’s no point in discussing it.”
The two-headed tiger nodded.
The spider agreed with the red dragon and said in a hoarse voice, “Since nothing has happened, why don’t we call it a day? We don’t need to get upset about it.”
A softer voice immediately came out of her body.
“The fire phoenix is such a lovely girl. Of course, she won’t do something like this.”
Then a cold voice said, “Let’s move on. If nothing happened, we should get back to what we were doing.”
After that came a lazy voice, “I’m sleepy, and I’m going back. Don’t wake me up!”
Once the spider left, the discussion became rather casual. Apart from the explosion and the mushroom cloud, there wasn’t anything else. This place didn’t seem disturbed either.
Seeing this, the others wanted to leave, too.
The ice snake asked coldly, “Lumi, what do you think?”
Everybody turned and looked in the direction of a tree. Nothing was there, but they still felt a presence. That was Lumi, a creature of unknown species, identity, and personality.
Lumi was a transparent being, and no one could make out its face. If it didn’t reveal itself, the others wouldn’t know it was there.
“Everything happened, but nothing seemed to have happened either.
“In that case, let’s pretend nothing had happened.
“Let’s avoid causing trouble…”
Lumi’s voice was quiet and featureless. Its voice trailed off until no one could hear it. Lumi itself disappeared as well. No one knew when it arrived and how it left. It was so mysterious.
“Lumi is like that all the time! What a poser!” Although the bat was angry, there was nothing he could do.
“Be careful. You don’t know who’s behind it,” the wolf reminded him.
“I’m going to tear it apart when it shows up again. I want to know what that thing is!”
No one said anything because the speaker was a poisonous mad dog. As his name suggested, he was poisonous and crazy, and no one wanted to cross him.
“I’m off.” The three-eyed cat leaped up and soon disappeared.
