Chapter 1608 Dragon-Phoenix

The shockwave was strong enough to shatter the heart of a Perfect Sky God by the sound alone. If Ryu wasn't so far from the battlefield, and if he hadn't hidden away in the void, it would have been entirely impossible for him to survive as well.ViiSiit novelbi/n(.)c/(o)m for latest novels

And then came the spiraling wave of flames and the Phoenix cry that peeled across the skies. It was so light and airy, almost like lightning during a spring's light drizzle.

The flames took shape into this Phoenix, its body soaring into the skies and spreading its wings with the majesty only a creature of its caliber could match.

Auras surged and the skies trembled.

The Dao Sovereigns who were just about to get into a battle of their own found themselves shocked.

They backed away, confusion and then awe appearing in their eyes.

There was no doubt what this was. It was Rebirth, a pure, shocking Rebirth.

When they realized that it could only be coming from Titus, their hearts seemed to freeze over. Didn't he have Fire Dragon blood?

Much of these issues had started over that blood in specific, when had he gained the strength of the Fire Phoenix? Was that even a Phoenix at all?

It looked like a Phoenix, the aura matched the shocking presence of a creature of that caliber, and there was even that elegant shape they had only ever seen in stories.

But it was laced with black.

The proud, ruby feathers, each one perfectly sculpted and glistening under the sunlight seemed to have been tainted by a devilish aura. It didn't just understand Rebirth, it seemed to command it.

The woman roared, infuriated. However, deep in her eyes, there was a conflicted expression. Just now, she really thought she had killed him and her heart was in turmoil, and now he attacked her master instead of her despite the fact she had just dolled out a killing blow.

"Don't overthink it," Titus said coldly as though drawing a hard line in the sand. "I can't deal with him yet on my own, but I can certainly deal with you."

The woman's dreams shattered and her anger seemed to flare up again.

Titus' flames surged into his body and in an instant, a man covered in scales of red with dancing black runes within them appeared. His horns seemed capable of poking holes through the skies and his wings spread out so far around him that they seemed to dwarf him.

A battle erupted in the skies as Ryu's heart rate calmed down a bit. He looked down at his bloodied arms and shook his head. What a mess.

He had half a mind to take his old man back to the Radiant Star Sect right now, but he wasn't the type to do that to begin with. He'd only feel better when he killed Old Wan himself.

However, that didn't mean that he could leave Eska and Selheira in danger because of his own selfish wants. So he'd have to ask his father to do something about that.

'But how...' Ryu wondered. By the look on his face, one would have never guessed that such a world-shaking battle was happening in the skies.

The truth was that Ryu was actually quite wary of Old Wan. He was the kind of man who, when given enough information, would be especially dangerous.

He miscalculated because Ryu had changed enough and there was enough about him that he didn't know. But the addition of Hope was a new bit of information, if he also found out that Ryu had a Dao Lord for a father, it would be another bit of information, and things would begin to add up very quickly.

Simply put, he couldn't just let his father stroll into the Radiant Star Sect and then stroll out. He had to find a way to remove his women from an otherwise dangerous situation, while also keeping Old Wan in the dark about it. He would probably also have to keep Aika and the others in the dark as well, because he couldn't trust them either.

Ryu mulled it over. He almost didn't realize a familiar woman was suddenly falling from the skies like a streaking meteor.
