All jokes aside...

When it was time to escape, they looked nervous.

They were all old Immortal men. Being naked meant their reputations were on the line. They could not afford to have any cringe-worthy moments in history.

They quickly cast cloud spells to shield themselves when they exited the back hall. They also did not forget to look as calm and collected as experts, like they were Immortals in the clouds.

They cast a spell to regrow their hair and beards.

In an instant, they went from bald old men to cool old men.

Payne quickly flew toward Ding Xiaozhu and smiled. “Bamboo, thanks.”

Ding Xiaozhu was sweating. She said, “The fire’s getting stronger. I won’t be able to hold it much longer.”

The painting scroll was completely unscrolled.

Suddenly, the golden flames emerged and it was getting excruciatingly hot.

The mountains and land nearby started to melt. The trees that were far away instantly dried up, too!

“Retreat!”

Everyone quickly retreated.

The back hall disintegrated within seconds! Nothing was left!

The painting levitated in its place.

The Three-Legged Golden Crow moved its neck around like it was observing the realm.

It suddenly spread its wings and looked up. Then, it cawed loudly.

Fume!

In a flash, golden flames surrounded it like a firestorm.

Everything was engulfed in flames. The Dustless Mirror was defenseless. The frost melted away.

Everyone looked like they were in despair. Their hairs stood on their ends as they ran like they had never ran before.

The Golden Crow did not attack. However, it could kill anything in sight just by stretching.

The golden flames were like an ocean that was about to drown the Heavenly Water Sect.

However, a red figure suddenly appeared.

She was walking on air with bare feet. Red flames could be seen burning under them.

She cast a spell.

Instantly, everything went red.

Fire swooped down from above and formed a huge ring of fire. It contained the golden flames.

The two different flames touched each other but did not make a sound. It was almost as if they were melting each other, or as if they were communicating.

Payne and the others sighed in relief. Then, they looked at the woman and were shocked.

Such...a gorgeous lady!

Not only was she gorgeous, she had unique features, too. She had long red hair, red eyes, and she wore a red dress. She looked demonic yet prestigious, hot yet holy. They were mesmerized.

“Ouch!” Payne yelped. Ding Xiaozhu had pinched him hard in the waist.

He said with a straight face, “This girl...isn’t human!”

The Golden Crow looked at the lady and flapped its wings. It manipulated the painting scroll and it started to fly.

“Demon King, I’m a demon, too. My name’s Fire Phoenix!” The lady spread her wings. Then, she transformed into a giant bird.

The bird had flaming red feathers and a long tail. It was terrifyingly powerful. Everyone held their breaths.

“Phoe... Phoenix?!”

They gulped subconsciously and went stiff. No one dared to move.

That was a Phoenix, something that was as much of a legendary creature as the Dragon. Even in ancient times, it was something no one could mess with. Phoenixes still existed in the Immortal Realm?

Gu Yuan’s eyes widened. He felt thunderstruck.

At that moment, he had the utmost respect towards the expert.

The expert was truly an expert!

He had been living in the Above Immortal Realm for years but he had never seen any signs of Phoenixes. He heard legends about it but no one ever saw a single Phoenix. Yet, the expert managed to attract a Phoenix with a painting.

The Golden Crow locked eyes with the Phoenix.

Suddenly, the painting erupted in flames. Then, the Golden Crow flew out of the painting scroll.

However, the Golden Crow seemed to be an illusionary figure as it was translucent.

The Golden Crow approached the Phoenix. Then, it turned into a pile of golden flames before it merged with the Phoenix.

Suddenly, a skyful of golden flames appeared. It was all absorbed by the Phoenix, too. The realm was once again peaceful. Everyone would have thought they were having a nightmare if it was not for their visible goosebumps.

The Phoenix spread its wings and returned to its human form. She looked at everyone with fiery red eyes and said, “Who’s the owner of the painting?”

Without missing a beat, Payne and the three elders pointed at Gu Yuan.

The others were not slow in reacting. They followed and pointed at Gu Yuan, too.

The lady looked at Gu Yuan.

Gasp—

Gu Yuan felt his skin crawl. He almost passed out.

His heart was racing as he said, “Lord Phoenix, it...it was given to me by an expert. It’s a long story.”

Everyone was intrigued, too, especially Payne. He realized that Gu Yuan was not bluffing at all. The expert he spoke of probably existed, and he was probably much more powerful than he thought.

He could not believe that Gu Yuan actually met a bigshot. Forming a relationship with the bigshot would be a huge breakthrough!

The Firefinch Demon was a good gift! A nice gift!

The lady stared at Gu Yuan and said coldly, “Speak!”

“The expert lives in the Immortal Realm. I got to know him through my grandson. He actually gave this painting to my grandson,” said Gu Yuan. He did not dare to lie to her so he told the whole truth.

About the writing that killed the Immortal.

The Golden Crow painting.

The Firefinch Demon that laid eggs.

The taming of the Golden Bees.

The new Human Sovereign that was probably related to him, too.

Everyone’s expressions grew increasingly shocked as they listened to his descriptions. If it was not for the mighty Phoenix being there, they would have gasped loudly.

If the Golden Crow was not an example, they would have assumed that Gu Yuan was spewing nonsense.

Too horrifying, utterly unimaginable!

What kind of bigshot was that?!

Why would God allow an existence like that?

The Phoenix lady was shocked, too. Her thin brows furrowed as she said, “You said the expert wanted a ride?”

“Yes,” nodded Gu Yuan. He suddenly had an idea. He clenched his jaw and went for it. He said, “I thought the expert gave this painting to me out of nowhere. Now that I think about it, it seems that the expert already predicted that it’d end up in the Above Immortal Realm and that it’d summon you.”

No wonder the expert disliked the Firefinch Demon. He already had a goal in mind.

Of course, how would the Firefinch Demon be worthy of the expert? In comparison to the Phoenix, it was more like a turkey, right?

What flawless prediction.

The lady said, “Are you saying that the expert painted it for me? He wants to ride me?”
