Chapter 2079: Meeting The Ice Phoenix Immortal

“Halt!”

Many cultivators guarded this area, instantly becoming hostile once they saw them, but the moment they saw their figures, their expressions changed as they dropped on all fours!

“Crown Prince!”

“Young Alliance Master!”

Davis nodded to them as they were cultivators from the Grand Sea Alliance. Their cultivations were at the Peak-Level Fifth Stage, almost reaching the Sixth Stage. They were cultivators posted to guard this inheritance site, and their prowess is more or less enough to defend.

Davis and the two beauties entered the cave and took the icy stairs leading to the Ice Phoenix Immortal.

Shirley was not familiar with the route, but Clara was extremely familiar as this was her fourth time entering this area. She led the way with precision before they finally reached a spacious location.

Ice quartz crystals aligned the walls of the cave, shining and reflecting the beautiful visage of the guests as well as the cave that was adorned with icy flowers blooming in silence.

At this moment, a smoky will emerged and transformed into the image of a beautiful bird with a sharp beak, gorgeous icy-blue feathers atop its head and shoulders, possessing attractive icy-blue eyes that could inevitably charm people.

It was none other than the remnant soul of the Ice Phoenix Mistress.

“Greetings, Fire Phoenix Immortal’s Inheritor.”

The Ice Phoenix Mistress glanced towards Shirley, nodding her head while Shirley clasped her hands and bowed in respect. After all, she first wanted to thank the Ice Phoenix Mistress for stopping Clara from doing something foolish.

But at this moment, the Ice Phoenix Mistress’s icy blue eyes flashed with a heavy gleam as they narrowed.

“Child, for what reason have you come here? Didn’t I say that you have lost the rights to participate in the Immortal Grade Trial?”

She looked toward Clara and demanded an answer, but Clara’s face remained as nonchalant as ever.

The Ice Phoenix Mistress was the same, being nonchalant as she ignored Clara and looked at Davis. Her eyes were still narrowed as she understood something as her gaze roamed between them. The resemblance wasn’t striking, but they did have similar features.

“So, it’s you. You possess the blood of our phoenix race. The Fire Phoenix’s Mistress’s blood? I see. So the Fire Phoenix Immortal’s Inheritor has chosen you, reviving you from your fall? Am I right?”

As the Ice Phoenix Mistress spoke, a tinge of surprise could be felt in her voice, as though she could sense Davis’s extraordinary prowess.

“Indeed,” Davis answered as she clasped his hands in greeting, “First and foremost, I wanted to thank you personally for stopping my little sister.”

“I did what I thought was right.” The Ice Phoenix Mistress shook her head, “There’s no need for you to compliment me. What I want to know is why you three have visited me? Surely, it cannot be to restore her rights to my Immortal Inheritance, right?”

Davis couldn’t help but smile, “Unfortunately, we have indeed come to make your esteemed self reconsider the decision you made for my little sister back then. All my little sister wanted was to save my dying soul but acted a bit over the line because of her familial love for me. I ask you that you give her a chance again. After all, she’s the only worthy successor-“

“Young man, I understand your feelings of wanting to help your little sister regain the immortal inheritance she was just a step close to grasping. However, actions have consequences, and words uttered will eventually come back to haunt you. Values determine who you are and how you uphold them makes you grow as a person.”

“I admired her as an individual. Your little sister was full of determination to save you, but that determination was misplaced.”

Davis’s expression became cold, “Are you mocking her?”

The Ice Phoenix Mistress giggled silently.

“Not in the slightest. I’m just saying that there are some things you should consider. After all, is your little sister ordinary?”

“…”

“She possesses the Transcendent Truth Eyes, and the fact that she possesses familial love is in itself miraculous, much less wanting to save you by sacrificing her innocence. She is anything but ordinary, but her actions aren’t ordinary at all, which worries me as an individual. You’re a Divergent, aren’t you?”

Davis’s heart shook as he stared at the Ice Phoenix Mistress.

“The moment I heard that she wants to save you, I considered this, but after seeing you now, I can practically tell that you’re a Divergent. I don’t know which kind of Divergent you are, but you’re a dangerous existence to her, one that would eventually push her into dire straits. That’s why your little sister is better off without the immortal inheritance. Sometimes, not having power means not having to do anything and remain a bystander.”

“As an individual, I wish your little sister a fruitful life. However, in an unfortunate twist of fate, you were born as a brother to her and also a Divergent. Her position might be precarious for all I know with my little knowledge, so if the heavens come to abhor her because of her misplaced actions in addition, then she won’t survive even if she inherits my immortal inheritance and obtains the protection of a powerful existence.”

Clara looked clueless and confused as she heard the Ice Phoenix Mistress’s valuable words, and when she turned to look at her big brother, she found him lowering his head as though he found the Ice Phoenix Mistress’s words understandable.

Shirley also saw Davis understand something she couldn’t. Biting her lips, she moved forwards and cupped her hands again.

“Ice Phoenix Mistress. As the Fire Phoenix Immortal’s inheritor, I request you to restore Clara’s right to participate in the Immortal Grade Trial.”

The Ice Phoenix Mistress simply shook her head in response, causing Shirley to tremble.

“Why not?”

“I already gave you my answer.”

“Hmph!” Shirley’s aura flared as she waved her hand, “Then I command you to restore Clara’s right to participate in the Immortal Grade Trial!”

Her crimson hair crazily hovered above, causing her to look like a fire goddess.

“Hahahaha!”

However, a peal of melodious laughter resounded as the Ice Phoenix Mistress laughed, causing Shirley’s brows to twitch.

Did her position as the inheritor of the Fire Phoenix Immortal count as a fart?

“You’re just as fiery as my elder sister, becoming angered even before negotiating. No wonder she chose you wholeheartedly. I thought I found my successor back then only to be disappointed by reality, but now I know what should I must do.”

The Ice Phoenix Mistress smiled calmly, her previous amused look nowhere to be seen.

“Shirley Ashton…”

Abruptly, the icy cave shook as vapor began appearing, forming into an image of a beautiful bird with a sharp beak, similar to the Ice Phoenix Mistress but appeared entirely different with gorgeous scarlet feathers atop its head and shoulders, possessing attractive blazing-red eyes that contained a passionate yet explosive charm.

“… we meet again~”

Its melodious yet confident voice resounded, causing Shirley’s jaws to drop.

“Fire Phoenix Mistress! You’re still alive!?”
