Chapter 1044 Red Phoenix Tribe (1)



The Phoenix Race elders and elite guards were surprised by the sudden actions of the Dragon Race elders.

They couldn't help looking at the Dragon Race elders with very strange looks, but in the end, they let down their weapons and waited for them to explain.

Seeing this, the Dragon Race elders couldn't help letting out a sigh of relief.

But at the same time, they couldn't help looking at Lin Fan with a bitter look.

They had heard from the two Great Elders that Lin Fan would be making his way to the Phoenix Race homeworld on his own. It was even their jobs to find Lin Fan after he made his way here.

However, not a single one of them expected Lin Fan to suddenly appear out of nowhere like this.

In fact, not a single one of them could expect this.

Though they should have since Lin Fan had disappeared in the same way.

If it wasn't for the two Great Elders driving them away so quickly, they would have known about this and would have been able to react properly.

Seeing that the Phoenix Race elders and elite guards relaxed their guards a bit, the Dragon Race elder that led the envoy let out a secret sigh of relief before slowly giving an explanation.

During this time, he looked at Lin Fan and gave him a secret signal with his eyes.

Lin Fan understood this and called out Xiao Feng as well.

When Xiao Feng appeared, the elite guards couldn't help moving a bit closer to him, as if they were prepared to protect him from anything that happened. Even though this was the Phoenix Race's territory, they couldn't help being careful.

If anyone were to happen the true descendant, it would be their asses on the line.

So they didn't dare let their guard down until they were absolutely certain that they were in a safe place.

Lin Fan was able to appear in this place without any warning, so it wasn't as if others couldn't. Though it was very unlikely, that was just how much they had been shaken up by Lin Fan appearing out of thin air.

It was just a good thing that the Phoenix Race was focused on the elder's story, or else they might have taken offense to this.

Once they finished listening to the elder's story, they turned to look at Lin Fan and Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng's case was easier since they could just look at him and sense the ancestral bloodline that was coming from him. As sacred beasts, they were sensitive to things like this and could easily sense something like the ancestral bloodline.

But it was more difficult when it came to Lin Fan since the Void God's power was something that could only be sensed when it was used.

Lin Fan knew what they were waiting for, so he raised his hand and gathered his void laws for them.

When they saw this, the Phoenix Race elders and elite guards all looked much more relaxed.

It wasn't that just any kind of void laws would trigger this kind of reaction from them. There was something special about Lin Fan's void laws that gave them a special feeling, allowing them to sense that he was the Void God's successor.

Namely…the Void Physique.

So once this had been confirmed, they immediately brought Lin Fan and Xiao Feng further into the Phoenix Race homeworld.

Just like with the Dragon Race homeworld, the core of the planet had been converted to a meeting hall for the elders.

That was where Lin Fan's group and the Dragon Race envoy were brought to meet the rest of the Phoenix Race elders. That included the three Great Elders of the Phoenix Race.

Even though the Phoenix Race had three Great Elders as opposed to the Dragon Race's two Great Elders, that didn't mean that the Phoenix Race was stronger than the Dragon Race.

After all, the greatest strength of these two sacred beast races was the gods of these races, their ancestors. Even if those ancestors had ascended to the world of gods, that didn't mean that they didn't leave something for their descendants.

These powerful God Realm Artifacts were the greatest things that supported these two sacred beast races.

When Lin Fan met the three Great Elders, the first thing that they did was sweep him and Xiao Feng with their spiritual senses.

Lin Fan didn't resist and just let them do what they wanted since he knew that this was the easiest way to earn their trust.

After they had finished, all three of the Great Elders revealed wide and welcoming smiles.

Seeing this, all of the elders also became much friendlier towards Lin Fan and the Dragon Race delegates.

The three Great Elders stood up and brought Lin Fan out to the hall in front of the elder hall. They brought him over to a mural that was the same as the one that he had been shown back at the Dragon Race elder hall.

When the Dragon Race elders saw this, they all revealed bitter smiles, but they didn't say a thing as they let the Phoenix Race Great Elders do what they wanted to do.

However, it ended in disappointment for them just like the Dragon Race elders.

After they showed Lin Fan the mural, they found that he didn't know a single thing about it. But they didn't lose hope right away and silently waited to see if Lin Fan would have a reaction to this mural.

Of course, they were disappointed in the end since he didn't know a thing.

So with this disappointment, they went back into the elders hall.

After sitting down, the middle Great Elder asked, "Void God's successor, did you just come to greet us or is there something else that you wanted to say today?"

The other two Great Elders nodded in agreement to this and waited to see what Lin Fan would respond with.

After all, they hadn't found their true descendant yet.

Until they did and it made a bond with Lin Fan, it wasn't as if they could just follow through with the ancestor's instructions. The ancestor had left clear instructions that only the Void God's successor with the true descendant should be given the things left behind by the ancestor.

So there really was nothing else that they could do for Lin Fan even though he was here now.

But of course, they also didn't want to offend Lin Fan since he was the prophesized Void God's successor.

In the end, the Great Elders and all of the elders were anxious since they didn't want to offend Lin Fan.

Lin Fan just gave a natural nod in response to this and said, "Actually, I wanted to meet the leaders of the Red Phoenix Tribe."

As soon as he said this, the Great Elders and the elders couldn't help revealing confused looks.

They would understand if he was looking for a specific elder, but why would he be looking for someone random from the Red Phoenix Tribe. The Red Phoenix Tribe was just one of the five tribes of the Phoenix Race and they weren't even the strongest.

So why would this Void God's successor want to meet the leaders of the Red Phoenix Tribe?

This wouldn't make sense unless…there was some kind of grudge between them already.

But if that was the case, this would be bad for them.

Seeing that the Great Elders and the elders didn't say anything, Lin Fan pulled out a token that he showed them. He didn't mind using this token since the Dragon Race elders had already seen it before.

This was the token of the Lin Astral Family.

When the Phoenix Race Great Elders and elders saw this, they couldn't help being surprised before waiting for Lin Fan to explain why he took this out.

Lin Fan calmly said, "The Phoenix Race recently sent an envoy to the Lin Astral Empire asking about a few things. I just wanted to have a talk with the Red Phoenix Tribe who sent the envoy.'

When they heard this, the Great Elders and the elders couldn't help revealing ugly looks on their faces.

What they had hoped wasn't true had actually come true. There did seem to be some kind of past connection between Lin Fan and the Red Phoenix Tribe.

Moreover, it seemed like it was something that would create some kind of grudge between them.

The Great Elders and elders naturally knew about this envoy unlike the Dragon Race and Qing Qiang's envoy. This envoy was one that they had approved of after hearing the Red Phoenix Tribe's reasoning.

They thought that it would be a good way to get the Red Phoenix Tribe to owe them, but they never thought that it would blow up to this level.

Now they couldn't help feeling regret over agreeing to let the Red Phoenix Tribe send that envoy.

But it was too late for regret.

As for the Dragon Race envoys, they finally understood why Lin Fan wanted to come to the Phoenix Tribe first.

It turned out that there was this history between the Phoenix Race and Lin Fan.

At the same time though, they also couldn't help feeling anxious because they could tell that this wasn't a good thing.

The prophecy required Lin Fan to be in harmony with all five sacred beast races…so if there was some kind of grudge that was started between him and the Phoenix Race because of this matter…it would be bad for them.

So everyone was left with an anxious look on their face after hearing this from Lin Fan.
