"Leader, we have a situation." The Phoenix that met with Yuan bowed before a handsome young man.
This young man's hair blazed red with strands of bright orange, mirroring the fiery aura he carried about him. Clad in a robe of red and gold, the colors of flame and royalty, he exuded the powerful presence of a Golden Immortal, attracting attention and awe from those around him.
"Is this about the guest you brought back?" The young man asked.
"Yes. He claims to have the Ancient Phoenix Bloodline. It's a little suspicious, but I dare not verify his identity." The Phoenix said.
Even if there was a ninety-nine percent chance that Yuan might be a fake, they couldn't risk offending an Ancient Phoenix.
"He is also traveling with a Shadow Dweller."
"A Phoenix and a Shadow Dweller traveling together? What an odd pair."
A young lady with features reminiscent of the young man sat beside him, her expression marked by curiosity.
