Chapter 141 Killed Some Skeletons
The Phoenix Princess chuckled and recounted the strange incident, "Did you notice? Just now, there was a thick aura of death all around, but for some reason, it all disappeared at once."
Wang Mu feigned ignorance, "Was it because the King of the Dead was killed that he took his death aura with him?"
Xuya shook her head. "That shouldn't be the case."
Wang Mu felt a little flustered and slapped his forehead. "Oh no, I forgot about the important matter."
"What is it?" Xu Ya asked.
Wang Mu pointed towards the sacred mountain, "I still need to find the Phoenix Princess."
"What business do you have with the Phoenix Princess?"
Wang Mu laughed and said, "Hehe, I can't say, I can't say."
Upon hearing this, Xu Ya guessed that it was not a good thing. Thinking that the emperor had spent most of the night with her and still did not know that she was the Phoenix Princess, she couldn't help but laugh to herself.
At this moment, she wanted to tease the other party, so she said, "Then why don't you hurry up and go? But she has thousands of guards with her, so it might not be easy."
Wang Mu said, "It's alright, I have a way. By the way, can you tell me what the Phoenix Clan princess looks like?"
Xu Ya suppressed a smile, "A phoenix princess naturally has the demeanor of a phoenix princess. You'll see when you meet her."
"Okay, thank you, Charlotte. I'm off." After saying that, Wang Mu lifted himself up and flew straight towards the second peak.
Once the boy's figure disappeared, Xu Ya could no longer hold back and burst into laughter, "Let's see where you find the Phoenix Princess, hmph."
Then she chuckled and said, "This guy is a bit of a dork, but he's interesting."
Wang Mu followed the mountain path to the second peak, where there were withered bones everywhere, as well as many dead disciples of Li Yan.
Upon arriving at the palace where the Phoenix Princess resided, he saw no sign of her guards outside. Judging from the bloodstains on the ground, they must have retreated inside. He sneaked in and found the Phoenix Princess's guards everywhere.
Fortunately, these people had been fighting the undead all night and were exhausted. They never expected that he would sneak in at this time. However, their conversation immediately caught his attention.
"Li Da, do you think His Highness will be alright?"
"Probably not. Didn't you see flashes of white light on the way down the mountain? The level of the Flame Spiritual Power being used is not low. There must be an elder guarding Your Highness there."
"Yes, I reckon there's more than one elder; maybe even members of the mage corps have gone there."
"What if His Highness isn't there?"
"No, His Highness secretly told Commander Li Ya before he left that it was in that place."
"But what about those lightning bolts earlier? They were strange, and they didn't feel like they were electric-type spiritual energy."
"Hmm, he might be a god-level expert."
"Ah, wasn't it said that there are no god-level powerhouses on the continent?"
"Perhaps it is the Creator God's favor upon Your Highness."
Wang Mu found it increasingly strange. How could the place these people were talking about be the path where he met Xia Luo and fought the undead in the middle of the night?
But then he thought again, that Xia Luo probably wasn't the Phoenix Clan princess. The Yin Spirit Day, which only comes once every thousand years, is extremely dangerous. How could the Phoenix Clan princess be all alone in that place, facing billions of dead souls, and being killed at any moment? Who would believe that if word got out?
Filled with doubt, he decided to take a walk around the palace anyway.
Without listening to the guards' discussion any further, he sneaked inside. He searched around but found no one there, and several places were protected by powerful restrictions.
Wang Mu found that these restrictions were so powerful that he couldn't do anything about them. However, there were no signs of a fight around him. Although there were some undead skeletons, they must have been killed by the restrictions. Thinking that the Phoenix Princess couldn't possibly be hiding inside, he retreated.
Once outside, he hid in the shadows and carefully searched for the women in the guard group.
Although these women were all pretty and many were young and beautiful, they did not resemble phoenix princesses at all; they looked more like maids.
He searched all the dozen or so rooms in the palace but did not find a woman who resembled the Phoenix Princess.
As dawn broke, he arrived at the square outside the palace.
Aside from the injured Phoenix Princess guards, some people began clearing away the surrounding bones. A group of over a hundred people gathered there, and judging from their conversation, it seemed they were preparing to search for the Phoenix Princess.
At this moment, Wang Mu had to admit a fact: the Xia Luo he met on the path last night should be the princess of the Li Yan Phoenix Clan. Thinking that the other party had deliberately used the alias Xia Luo and had been deceiving him all along, he couldn't help but feel angry.
Filled with anger and resentment, he had no choice but to descend the mountain, hoping to find Charlotte, who had spent the night with him, and confirm his suspicions.
Meanwhile, Qixi chased after them up the mountain, only to be blocked by millions of dead souls.
He was just a level six knight, without a warhorse or lance. On this dangerous day of spirits, it was a miracle that he could protect himself. Fortunately, most of the powerful undead were attracted to where the Phoenix Princess was.
After killing his way through, he discovered that the higher he went, the higher the level of the undead became. With no other option, he had to hide at the entrance of a cave and hold out.
When he heard more than a dozen dragon roars in the air, he was curious and rushed out of the cave. When he came to the road, he saw what looked like a giant dragon in the night sky.
Not long after, a dazzling white light appeared in the sky. It was high-level Li Yan spiritual power. When the white light dissipated, he discovered by the corner of his eye that it was actually a giant ice dragon in the sky.
He was greatly alarmed to see a person on the dragon's back.
At that moment, the frost dragon swooped down on him.
He hurriedly hid behind a large rock, and upon closer inspection, he discovered that the dragon was actually the boy he had met earlier. He wondered if this boy was on the mountain looking for the Phoenix Princess.
Little did he know that Wang Mu was fighting a great battle with the King of the Dead. Seeing the boy's bravery, he looked at him with admiration. As a knight, he wanted to become a dragon knight day and night.
Then, a sudden flash of lightning appeared in the night sky. The irresistible divine power almost made Qixi prostrate on the ground. He hurriedly ran towards the cave, but before he could escape, he found that the surrounding skeletons and undead had stopped moving.
Little did he know that the King of the Dead had been killed, and he stared around in shock.
This man was quite bold. Before long, he cautiously attacked the skeletons around him and surprisingly did not retaliate. He killed several more undead and found that this was the case. Puzzled, he killed some skeletons around him.
As dawn broke and the night was about to end, he suddenly remembered his identity and hurriedly fled down the mountain. Unexpectedly, a group of people came chasing after him from below, presumably to capture him.
Qi Xi turned and ran up the mountain, but the pursuers were much stronger than him. He ran for several hundred meters before being caught up by several Li Yan disciples who pinned him to the ground.
At this moment, a man approached and asked, "Pukun, what's going on here?"
Everyone turned around and saw that it was the Phoenix Clan Princess. Everyone immediately knelt on one knee, and even Qi Xi broke free from the Yan disciples and knelt on the ground in front of the Phoenix Clan Princess.
"Your Highness, this man is guilty of heinous crimes and is a traitorous disciple." The speaker was Pukun.
