Divine King of Honour Chapter 2179: Phoenix Clan Crisis

"Is this the battle of a Divine Sovereign level?" Xu Nian gazed at the heavens above.

A single hand obscured the sky and sun, striking down a God King Peak expert of the Origin Fourth Rank.

It must be said, the power of a Divine Sovereign level powerhouse is indeed extremely terrifying.

"Those are Nether River Venerable of the Fighting God Hall and Qingye Sovereign of the Immortal Sacred Mountain. They are battling two elders from the Ancient Divine Spirit Crow Clan, who also appear to be at the early-stage Divine Sovereign," Xuan Ye observed the four Divine Sovereign level powerhouses clashing in the skies above.

Apart from the Divine Sovereign level battle, earlier, eight individuals of the Origin Eighth Rank were also constantly exchanging blows, seemingly with no clear victor.

However, on the Divine Sovereign level side, Nether River Venerable and Qingye Sovereign seemed no match for the Spirit Crow Clan Divines.

Ultimately, Nether River Venerable and Qingye Sovereign were defeated and retreated.

Thus, the ownership of the Origin Key naturally fell into the hands of the Spirit Crow Clan.

With the defeat of the Divine Sovereign level powerhouses, while the God King level powerhouses felt unwilling, they too left quietly.

Xu Nian also retreated with the others, returning to the nearest safe city named Mo City.

Xu Nian, along with Xuan Ye God King and the later arriving Vajra God King, completed their mission.

The achievements gained, Xu Nian offered to Xuan Ye.

However, afterward, Xu Nian proposed to part ways with Xuan Ye and Vajra God King.

Xuan Ye God King and Vajra God King agreed.

Coincidentally, Vajra God King planned to retreat into seclusion for a while; he had obtained a piece of Origin Grass.

Meanwhile, Xuan Ye God King intended to visit the power city of the Fighting God Hall.

Xu Nian did not leave Mo City, instead choosing to cultivate within Mo City.

He planned to go into seclusion for a while, using this opportunity to digest the Origin Fruit.

Thus, he rented a residence within the city as his temporary place of cultivation.

As Xu Nian secluded himself, a graceful figure arrived in Mo City.

This woman had white hair, and her aura was incredibly fierce.

If Xu Nian saw her, he would surely recognize her as Luo Bing.

...

Meanwhile, as the Gold Attribute Avatar secluded himself.

The Fire Attribute Avatar encountered some trouble within the Phoenix Clan.

"No, absolutely not, Feng Clear, you are the daughter of the Phoenix Clan leader, how can you privately decide your fate?" An elder of the Phoenix Clan roared angrily.

This was a Divine Sovereign level powerhouse, exuding an extremely powerful aura at the moment.

Although the Phoenix Clan has declined, it still possesses three Divine Sovereigns.

The spokesperson was Elder Feng Yu of the Phoenix Clan.

This man was a veteran of the Phoenix Clan, and his strength had already reached the late-stage Divine Sovereign.

His gaze fell on Xu Nian and Feng Clear, bringing them immense pressure.

Beside him sat a middle-aged man and a middle-aged woman.

They were Second Elder Feng Lin and Third Elder Huang Yu of the Phoenix Clan.

They were furious to hear that Feng Clear privately vowed eternal companionship with Xu Nian.

"Three elders, I truly like Feng Clear, I hope the three elders can fulfill us!" Xu Nian, enduring the immense pressure, looked at the three elders.

"Hmph, like? She is the Holy Daughter of our Phoenix Clan, what qualifications does a God King like you have to earn our approval?" Elder Feng Yu snorted coldly.

He showed no favor towards Xu Nian.

They had just exited their seclusion to hear Feng Clear had brought a Human Clan member back and reportedly had privately vowed eternal companionship; they were instantly infuriated.

Thus came the scene before them now.

"Grandfather Feng Yu, Xu Nian is the man I have chosen, I will marry no other in this lifetime. I know you want me to marry the Young Sect Master of the Vast Divine Sect to strengthen our Phoenix Clan, but the Vast Divine Sect harbors ulterior motives," Feng Clear said seriously.

"Feng Clear, even if the Vast Divine Sect has motives, you know the situation of our Phoenix Clan. Without the support of the Vast Divine Sect, it is hard for our Phoenix Clan to survive," Elder Feng Lin spoke, his eyes expressing helplessness.

"Indeed, Feng Clear, romantic courtesies are not allowed. As the Holy Daughter of the Phoenix Clan, you do not have a choice," Elder Feng Ling echoed.

Feng Clear bit her lip hard, feeling unwilling.

Although she anticipated this outcome, she still felt reluctant.

She was unwilling to be a pawn in a political marriage; she wanted to control her own destiny.

Seeing Feng Clear’s pained expression, Xu Nian understood her mood, patting her shoulder and giving her a comforting look.

Then he looked at the three elders of the Phoenix Clan and said, "Three elders, may I ask what kind of crisis the Phoenix Clan is facing?"

"Hmph, do you think you can help solve the Phoenix Clan’s crisis?" Elder Feng Yu snorted coldly, his eyes full of disdain.

Feng Lin and Feng Ling also shook their heads.

Even as Divine Sovereign levels, they couldn’t resolve the crisis the Phoenix Clan faced, let alone a mere God King like Xu Nian.

Xu Nian seemed to see through their thoughts, smiling as he said, "I know the three elders look down on me, but I still want to understand. Even if I can’t resolve it, wouldn’t knowing the truth at least offer me peace?"

Hearing Xu Nian’s words, Elder Feng Ling finally spoke, "The Phoenix Clan has reached a critical point of life and death. With the advent of the Divine World’s calamity, without the protection of a God Emperor level powerhouse, the Phoenix Clan’s demise is certain."

"Could the elder provide more specifics?" Xu Nian continued to ask.

"Since you wish to understand, then I will satisfy you. Currently, the Phoenix Clan is being oppressed by the Ten Thousand Dao Dragon Nest. You should know the might of the Ten Thousand Dao Dragon Nest," Feng Yu said.

Xu Nian nodded.

The Ten Thousand Dao Dragon Nest was indeed formidable, likely possessing numerous God Emperors.

"Why does the Ten Thousand Dao Dragon Nest target the Phoenix Clan so much?" Xu Nian asked.

"They wish to enslave the Phoenix Clan!" Feng Clear replied.

"That is only one reason. Our Phoenix Clan is born with Divine Beast Bloodline; if the Dragon Clan of the Ten Thousand Dao Dragon Nest devours our bloodline, it will enhance their cultivation and bloodline," Feng Lin explained.

"Most importantly, they covet a powerful treasure of our Phoenix Clan," Feng Lin added.

A treasure?

Xu Nian was taken aback!

Indeed, both the Dragon Clan and Phoenix Clan had produced Supremes in the past, though that was a long time ago.

The so-called treasure is the relic left by Supreme experts.

The Supreme of the Phoenix Clan had fallen long ago, but the clan’s inheritance treasure should still exist.

Such a treasure would tempt even God Emperor level powerhouses.

Without the protection of a God Emperor level powerhouse, the Phoenix Clan might indeed face extinction.

"Human, now you should know the plight of the Phoenix Clan. Feng Clear is our only hope, so I hope you understand and retreat!" Elder Feng Ling commented.

Elder Feng Yu snorted coldly, clearly feeling that explaining so much to Xu Nian was unnecessary.

Feng Clear’s expression turned grim, her mood extremely complex.

She couldn’t forsake the Phoenix Clan!

And Xu Nian indeed could not currently assist the Phoenix Clan.

"A hundred years, give me a hundred years. If I break through to the God Emperor level, would you still oppose me being with Feng Clear?" Xu Nian said coldly.

Yet, Feng Yu merely scoffed.

A hundred years to reach God Emperor?

Both Feng Lin and Feng Ling shook their heads repeatedly, as if hearing the most absurd joke.
