Chereads / Dark Phoenix Prince / Chapter 38 - Trouble Coming

Chapter 38 - Trouble Coming

As the sun gradually rose, the center of Sleeping Dragon city was already very much alive as countless people came from all over.

There may be only a few people who can enter the holy path, but that doesn't hinder people's desire to see.

When the portal of the holy path opens later, people can still get a glimpse of what the holy path looks like.

Besides, even though people couldn't keep an eye on what was going on inside the holy path, they could still find out through the headquarters of the Spiritual Academy.

As the controllers of the holy path in the territory of a thousand islands, even though the Spiritual Academy also didn't have the ability to supervise the holy path, they could still know a few things. For example, they could find out the result of the battle recorded by the holy path tablet. And the results of that battle will later be spread by them through their branch headquarters.

Even if they couldn't directly supervise the entire sacred path, they would still wait for news. If there was a name from their clan, it meant that their clan members who had entered the holy path had benefited quite a lot. It was clearly the happy news they were looking forward to.

Alu, Roux, and Reva returned to the branch headquarters of the Spiritual Academy early.

When they got there, the place was already filled with people. Those people surrounded the stronghold of the Spiritual Academy so that only the entrance to the fortress gate could be passed.

Of course, only people who entered the holy path could enter the gates.

Alu and the others easily passed the people and entered the fort's gates.

Even though they had arrived early, there were actually quite a number of participants by the time they got there.

ALU even saw three people who were from the Kingdom of the Phoenix.

The three people also possessed the cultivation of the Life and Death stage of the first layer, which allowed them to easily enter the holy path.

It's just that, their cultivation might be increased by force so that their foundations don't look very stable.

Zaden certainly didn't give up on his Phoenix kingdom so easily. Even though those people might not be able to participate on the main stage, they could still roam the periphery.

If they are lucky to get something, their talents can still jump dramatically.

The people from the Kingdom of the Phoenix were actually also staring at Alu and the others. When they looked at Alu and the others they were seen whispering.

They may suspect the identity of Alu and the others, but they choose to act as if they don't know each other.

"Tch..."

Alu just sneered when he saw them.

Compared to Roux and Reva, they were not worth mentioning.

After staring at them for a moment, Alu stared at another direction.

In that direction, Alu could feel Elizabeth's presence.

Even if Alu wasn't looking, Alu could still feel Elizabeth's presence because she had immediately felt a cold gaze ever since she entered the fort.

When he saw Elizabeth, Alu slightly narrowed his eyes because he saw Elizabeth was actually with some young men.

"Are they people from the Full Moon Temple?" ALU thinks while looking at them.

And while Alu was thinking, the people from the Full Moon Temple were also staring at him.

Those people might not feel his gaze, but they must have felt Elizabeth's gaze.

"Mm..."

After staring at him, Alu looked at the people from the Full Moon Temple then talked to Elizabeth.

ALU doesn't know what they are talking about, but after they have spoken, the people suddenly walk towards him.

Seeing them approaching him, Alu couldn't help but stare at Elizabeth once again.

ALU could naturally guess that those people must have been provoked by Elizabeth to cause trouble for him.

And when Alu looked at Elizabeth once again, Alu even felt the scorn behind the hood that covered Elizabeth's head.

"This woman." Reva who was standing beside Alu couldn't help but exclaim in an annoyed tone.

Seeing all that, Reva naturally understood what was happening.

Not long after Reva spoke, the people who had been coming at them had arrived right in front of them.

Alu immediately narrowed his eyes at those people. He then looked at the youth who was leading at the front.

Just by looking at his position, Alu could immediately tell that the young man was the young master of the Full Moon Temple, Turi.

Seeing Turi's expression, ALU could immediately tell what kind of person Turi was

When someone displeases him, he will definitely not hesitate to cause trouble for that person.

He was the most hated type of young master in the cultivation world.

When Turi arrived in front of Alu, he also stared at the latter.

"Only the True Spiritual stage." Turi then spoke in a disgusted tone as he sensed Alu's cultivation.

Since ALU didn't want to be suspected, he purposely hid his cultivation when he arrived at the place.

Although it wouldn't be strange for him to suddenly break through, but the current state was definitely not the right time.

Moreover, his body had already reached the Life and Death stage. If people found out that he had also reached the Life and Death stage in energy cultivation, he would probably attract many people's attention.

After Turi said Alu's cultivation, he even went so far as to spread his soul senses into Alu's body.

Since Alu's entire body was covered and his face was barely visible, one could only see Alu's face if they investigated with their soul senses. It was naturally an immodest act.

"Is there something?" Alu then asked in a cold tone.

ALU doesn't care if he is ignored, but Alu definitely won't allow himself to be insulted.

If it weren't for the unsuitable place, Alu would have killed Turi right then and there.

"Heh."

Turi was a little stunned after hearing Alu's words.

He looked at Alu once again.

Besides, the smell of conflict between them also made them attract the attention of many people.

"See, who are they?"

"They seem to have offended the Full Moon Temple."

"Oh, yesterday I saw those people following young master Krinn."

Several people whispered.

Even though there were quite a lot of conflicts in the place because there were a lot of people coming from various hostile factions, those conflicts didn't really catch people's attention.

But this time was clearly different, after all, one of the parties to the conflict came from one of the strongest factions on the continent.

"I don't know who you are, but because you have offended Elizabeth, that means you offended me too." Turi then spoke.

Turi's mouth seemed to curl up after he said that.

And while Alu was waiting for what Turi would do, Alu suddenly felt a burst of spiritual energy from Turi. The burst of spiritual energy charged at him and tried to suppress his body.

With Alu's current strength, Turi's power was definitely not enough to influence him. But Alu also didn't want to reveal his true strength. Hence, Alu could only release his body strength.

Busss...

Alu only released a little of his body strength, but with just a little of his strength, it was enough to withstand Turi's burst of spiritual energy.

If it were people with ordinary Life and Death stage cultivation, they would definitely be forced to their knees by Turi's burst of spiritual energy. However, it cannot affect Alu.

Turi knitted his brows when he saw that Alu was fine.

"Heh, so you have some abilities. No wonder you dare to be arrogant in front of this young master." Turi said with a sarcastic tone.

"If you want to fight, you can wait until we enter the holy path." Replied Alu.

Hearing Alu's answer, Turi changed his expression once again.

"Good, very good. In that case, this young master will be waiting for you on the holy path. I hope you don't fall before we meet."

After saying that, Turi then turned to leave.

The people who followed behind Turi also provoked Alu before they turned around.

But they didn't know, when they turned around, Alu's gaze had already turned very cold.

"If I don't slaughter all of you, I better lose my Phoenix soul." Said Alu in a low voice.

Before this, Alu had even killed many innocent people. How could he let the people who deliberately targeted him stay alive.
