Chapter 68: Phoenix Clan
Chapter 68: Phoenix Clan
Presently, the atmosphere in the phoenix tribe village could be said as pretty gloomy. They've just got the information that two of their ancestral ruins were invaded by outsiders, and to make things worse, one of the invaders could successfully clear the ruins trial.
" Fuck, how dare they trespass in our sacred ruins."
" Please calm down patriarch, excess anger will be detrimental to your health."
Three old people were gathering and discussed things in the tallest building in phoenix tribe village.
The man in the middle, having a tall brawny body, and using ornaments like in the Chinese warring states, was the current patriarch of the phoenix tribe, while the other 2 beside him were the phoenix tribe, high elders.
" Why must this happens when our phoenix tribe was in a drought of talent. *Sigh*."
The patriarch took a deep breath and calmed himself. Right now, their situation was in a bit of a predicament, and anger would no solve anything.
" Patriarch, even if the matter of sacred ruins is important, I do believe that we must prioritize our thought in the threat of demonic beasts first. The sacred fire left by our ancestors is weakening by every day, and it wouldn't be long until it vanishes completely."
The patriarch listened to the advice of the high elder and didn't refute. The High elder was right; they must prioritize their present. Sacred ruins might be important, but the well-being of their villager is their priority.
" Then, what is the high elder thinking? Please give me some enlightenment."
" This…"
The Patriarch was still discussing things with the high elders when suddenly the door of their meeting room was knocked by a guard.
" Patriarch, Patriarch, it is an emergency."
" Fuck, don't you remember what I've said before. Our meeting this time was discussing something important, and we don't want to be disturbed."
" But Patriarch, this time it is about the Lord of Geo, the Lord of Geo has come and visited our village."
Hearing the guard's words, The patriarch's temper instantly went down.
" Fuck, why don't you tell me sooner."
He didn't waste any more time and rushed into the village entrance. Even though the meeting was important, pleasing the Lord of Geo was more important than it.
……
At the entrance of the village. Ray and co were observing the phoenix village from outside.
" Hmm, hearing the name Phoenix, I thought this place would be much grander than this."
" Don't say that Ray, it was already pretty good. At least we could get a pretty decent rest here."
Rena didn't know why, but she felt a bit annoyed when Ray dissed the phoenix village.
" Rena is right Ray, you need to learn how to be grateful for what you have. Look, the Phoenix clan have arrived there to greet us."
Ray look towards the direction Xiansheng pointed and saw a middle-aged man came down surrounded by many guards.
" Lord of Geo, I'm sorry for my lateness. Our village was in a bit of a predicament recently."
The Patriarch bowed politely to Xiansheng and observed Rena and Ray on his side.
" Lord of Geo, this…"
" Don't ask, little bird. They are my comrades, and don't you feel a familiar feeling from the girl?"
Xiansheng's words woke up the patriarch. He was too focused on Xiansheng that he failed to notice the familiar feel in Rena.
" No way! Lord of Geo…"
" Let us rest first, little bird. They are too tired after clearing the trial of stone."
The patriarch nodded and proceeds to lead the three into a big building to rest. In front of Xiansheng, all his authorities meant nothing. Even their ancestor was very respectful of Xiansheng.
……
After getting lead into the building, Ray and Rena didn't get polite anymore and rushed into the bed there.
" Finally, a nice warm bed."
" Yeah, I never thought I will miss a bed this much."
The two cheered and enjoyed the taste of a warm bed. Not to mention Rena, even Ray was already tired of resting in the wild.
" By the way Xiansheng, I think this time you owe us an explanation."
Ray and Rena's focus shifted into the peculiar dragon. This peculiar dragon hides too many secrets, and sometimes they didn't know what he is thinking.
" Calm down Ray, Rena. I also would like to explain things to you before, but I believe that explaining here would be better. Listening to a boring chatter of an old man would be better if you have a comfy bed on your side, right?"
Then Xiansheng continued to explain the thing about him and the phoenix tribe. It was revealed that the first traveler had saved a small bird in his journey with Xiansheng and gave him a flame elemental power. The bird who felt grateful to the traveler asked to accompany him on his journey.
After some events and the traveler's departure from the world, the small bird eventually decided to stay away from the world and came to this small dimension to make her own clan, the phoenix clan.
It was only during the death of the small bird that Xiansheng came to this dimension and helped protecting the Phoenix tribe under the request of his former comrade.
" Hmm, so everything was all tied down to the first traveler huh. Then how about Rena? What are you talking about Rena with the patriarch?"
" Yeah, I also have some questions about the Big tree near the place where we met. Why do I feel a familiar presence there."
Xiansheng smiled at the two of them and continued to explain.
" The Big tree is the last remains of the small bird. When she was about to face her death, she left a part of her flame there, and now it has grown into the big tree. For your case Rena, I shouldn't be wrong, but I felt the ancestral blood of the small bird and her power in you. It's just they haven't been awakened yet."
*Boom*
The two felt like a bomb has been dropped into them. The fact that Rena might be a descendant of a very strong being was a very shocking revelation to them.
But after thinking for a bit, Ray found that it wasn't that surprising. Rena was one of the main heroines in the game, so it would make sense if she has a back story like this.
" Then, about your conversation with the patriarch…"
" Yes, Rena has the capability and right to claim the throne of the phoenix clan."
* Boom*
They felt like another bomb has been thrown into them.
