Chapter 1230 Asking Zachary Back

"That's absolutely preposterous! Imagine the humiliation our sect would suffer if we beg!" The elders of the Phoenix Pavilion who previously supported Holy Phoenix's recaptured leadership heavily opposed. Their sect's pride and dignity would be marred if they asked for Zachary's help again. After all, he once told them that they would be defeated, and he was right.

"Don't worry, child. I know you can do it well. I hope you don't let me down!" Holy Phoenix told her to boost her confidence.

"Are you sure with what we're about to do, Madam?" Stacey asked for her confirmation.

"If this is the only way we can save the Phoenix Pavilion, then so be it. Once the Moon Shadow army arrives, we will halt all our attacks. We will not fight, and we will not resist. We will leave everything up to God." Holy Phoenix took a deep breath. She left the hall and descended the Nine Phoenixes Mountain.
