"So you're telling me that Yurou was part Phoenix and both of you ended up in a trial left behind by an ancestral Phoenix of the past?"
"Yes."
Xiao nodded his head at Yun Hao's words. By now, Xiao had explained a part of how things had gone. He just made it such that he didn't play a huge role in the trial, presenting himself as a baggage that rode on Yurou's luck. His words had surprised everybody, and people were now talking with each other, whispering about what a twist this was.
"Where's Yurou's father?"
Xiao asked as he noticed the man's absence. He really wanted to meet the guy who nailed a phoenix. He didn't pay much attention to him before, but it wasn't every day that he met someone like that. The moment Xiao asked the question, the talking in the room stopped as everyone started to look at each other with a hint of fear. Feeling the silence, Yun Hao spoke,
"He was burned to death by that woman."
"Oh."
