Chapter 96: Chapter 96 Phoenix

Finally, it was cornered and surrounded. Looking at the devil creature around, the phoenix threatened with cries.

The phoenix's heart tightened, and panic flashed through its pupils, but still, it fought bravely and attacked some creatures around.

Unfortunately, one devil grabbed its feet and bit it up, then another pounced on its wings.

Boom!!!

All of them fell straight to the ground. Phoenix struggled, feeling its aura and main core were corrupting. It also felt a dark color spreading on its body—a regret and unwillingness revealed in its pupils.

Lin Lee was surprised, looking into the phoenix eyes, and noticed the unwillingness, helplessness, and regret.

Time and Space Law!!! Time Stop

Instantly everything halted, including those devils, except the phoenix, which was able to move.

Phoenix was surprised by sudden quietness; no devil roars or other noise sounded; not even wind was blowing around. Then the phoenix noticed its aura had stopped corrupting, as if something had paused the effect.

Steps!!!

Instantly, steps sounded.

The phoenix struggled and raised its head, glanced at the direction of footsteps, and looked at Lin Lee walking toward its direction.

"You saved me." An ethereal female voice sounded.

Lin Lee's footstep halted, and then his expression became strange. Looking at the phoenix speechlessly,

'Why female again? I always encounter a lot of females; even my pets are female. Now that the bird I encountered is also a female, am I so popular?' He thought narcissistically, then shook his head.

'Anyway, I don't like male partners; I am not gay, and as for male friends, there isn't anyone worthy of my friendship yet.'

Lin Lee thought, then waved his hand and devoured the devil creatures in the million miles around; even the corruption spread inside the phoenix body was devoured by his nanobots; the black color on her body receded, restoring her white feathers.

The phoenix was shocked; she hurriedly suppressed her surprise, released an aura from her main core, and a dark flame spread on her body, burning on her wound, restoring wings and body injury. Also, her missing features were regrown as before, but her face became extremely pale because of aura exhaustion.

Lin Lee then glanced at her for a while and asked, "Tell me your identity truthfully. If you lie, I will roast you in the sun. I haven't eaten a fried phoenix before."

He stood up, retracted his time and space laws, and turned around, ready to fly away toward the Hell space passage.

"Wait," instantly Murong called him from behind.

Lin Lee halted, turned, and glanced at her, looking at the hesitation on her face. "What is it?"

"Please help me; you should take me to my tribe. My father will compensate you." She said nervously,

Lin Lee glanced at her thoughtfully, then his eyes lit up, and he asked with a smile, "Do you know your clan location?"

Instantly, Princess Murong's face turned red. She shook her head and embarrassedly said, "I don't know; I am lost."

"Oh," Lin Lee glanced at her embarrassed appearance expressionlessly.

...

After a while,

Lin Lee, sitting on a white phoenix, was flying toward the forest. He rubbed the dark and, while the phoenix feathered, said, "Your flight is quite stable, which means I can keep you as a mount; anyway, you don't know your tribe location."

The phoenix eyes turned red, with diamond tears falling below. Hearing Lin Lee's words, she became more grievous. 'Damn, how can he ride this princess back and consider me his mount?' She thought but didn't dare to say it loud, just flying resentfully.

Lin Lee glanced at the forest far away and said, "Your speed is slow; are you really a phoenix? I can travel such a distance in a glimpse; you are even useless as a mount." He commented with a disappointed voice.

Lin Lee then jumped from her back and landed on a tree branch below.

The phoenix glanced at him below angrily, 'Stupid, stupid, stupid, damn, I am faster than other holy order beasts'.' She thought cursed in her heart but followed him down honestly, transformed into a humanoid form; she doesn't want to face those devil creatures again.

Soon, both Eero and Murong appeared in front of a huge space gate, looking at the devil's still jumping out of it and landing directly in the mouths of nanobots below.

"Stay in this forest range, and don't go out. I am going to retreat for a while," Lin Lee said, giving her a glance. He then walked and sat down on the boulder, the nanobots rotating around him.

Princess Murong was looking at the space passage and nanobots in a daze, then she returned to her senses, took a deep breath, and glanced at Lin Lee and the nanobot rings rotating around him. 'What are these metallic things? I haven't seen any records of such objects in the Phoenix clan. When I return, I will ask my father.'

Instantly, a horrible suppression spread; it wasn't aiming at her, but her body, soul, and heart inadvertently tightened, feeling the atmosphere of the whole forest changed.
