Chapter 469 "One of the Three Great Schools: Immortal Jade Garden p2"

“Quiet, the forbidden area is just up ahead.” Gesturing her to silence, Wu Chong didn't give her anymore chances to speak because the terrific pressure up ahead gave weight to how much danger they are in currently.

“This phoenix's strength is ??very high, far stronger than that pair we encountered from before. Remember, since you absorbed the effects of the Nirvana Heart Lotus that means you are partially immune to its flame. However, with your current strength, you can only withstand its fire for nine times, just enough to get you started on the Third Flame tier. Once things are done I will immediately take you away." Using a tone of an adult lecturing a child, Wu Chong's att.i.tude made the girl especially uncomfortable.

Even so, Ling Yue figured she better add something to that, "You be careful too."

She's not an ungrateful person. If someone else was doing this for her then it's only normal she give some thanks.

“Don't worry, I can't bear to let you become a widow now can I?" Initially Wu Chong was a tad startled at first, but that quickly changed to a form of elation, which in turn manifested into a hearty hug for the girl.

Although Ling Yue was still unused to this level of intimacy, she nevertheless has to give him credit and decides to accept this gesture. It's a very dangerous venture they are heading into, that's the least she could do.

The emotions has been past on, the gestures been done, now its time to begin taking action. Shooting over to the specially constructed altar, Wu Chong's first order of business was to set up a seal to keep the noise from alarming anyone outside the area. Then that's when the attacks came cras.h.i.+ng down.

This guy, how can he make a direct confrontation?

That's not how one steals something!

Talk about being a tyrant!

Ling Yue's worry wasn't without cause. A thousand year-old phoenix meant it's at its prime, a being that could rock the very foundation of an entire kingdom with ease. To this sacred beast, a mere human was no different from an ant, something that could be squashed at will.

Revealing a flash of anger in that golden iris, the phoenix immediately went on the offensive and spewed out its phoenix breath from the altar.

Chance!

Not missing this important opening, Ling Yue directs her Twinkling Star Dagger under her feet to shoot straight in the fire.

Only then does she understand how difficult it truly was to endure such a trial. Every fiber, every cell within her body, they were screaming at the intensity. The effects were so prominent that it was even stronger than when she broke into the Dan realm, that's how amazing this process was!

It's a well-known fact that the flames of the phoenix race were extremely hot, hotter than almost any other type of common fire out there. For the girl to absorb this quickly and without any injuries or burns in the process, it's almost unheard of even if she did consume the Nirvana Heart Flower!
