"Why is Young Master Gu Fei here, and it looks like he's going to kill Huang Tian?"
"Do you live under a rock? Years ago, Huang Tian's son was killed by Gu Fei. This time, Huang Tian is here to capture Gu Fei's woman to avenge his son's death!"
"This is the young clan leader of the Gu Clan. Angering him won't end well for Huang Tian!"
"Huang Tian is the strongest in the Beast Region! Even if some ancient clan brat comes along, so what?"
Many strong figures nearby were talking amongst themselves.
In the sky, the two rapidly approaching figures were Gu Fei and Zi Yan, who had just left the Gu Clan.
At this moment, Gu Fei looked down at the vortex stirred by Huang Tian in the Nine Serene Springs. His previously calm gaze was now filled with icy coldness.
One of the most dangerous things during cultivation was being forcibly interrupted. A single mistake could not only destroy years of hard work but also put the cultivator's life in grave danger.
Earlier, Huang Tian's reckless actions clearly showed no concern for Cai Lin's safety, and he could not tolerate such behavior.
In an instant, Gu Fei pressed his hand toward the water below, and the whirlpool instantly calmed.
"Brother Gu Fei, I knew you couldn't be killed so easily!"
On the other side, Yao Ming's face lit up with joy when he saw them arrive. To him, as long as Gu Fei was here, the top experts of the Gu Clan would surely intervene.
"Yao Ming, I appreciate your help!" Gu Fei glanced at Yao Ming and nodded slightly.
After saying that, he turned his gaze toward Huang Tian, who was in the sky.
"So, you're Gu Fei?"
"It seems you've got quite the luck to survive the Demonic Flame Space…"
Gu Fei's face was cold, while Huang Tian's expression darkened, his golden eyes fixed on his enemy- the one who had killed his son!
Blinded by hatred, Huang Tian had already forgotten the enormous gap between the Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe and the Gu Clan.
"My luck is strong," Gu Fei said coldly. "But I'm afraid yours isn't!"
"Others may fear you, but I do not! Years ago, you killed my son in the Ancient Wasteland Region. I've long wanted you dead, to accompany him in the afterlife! I've waited for so many years, and now I finally have the chance!"
As Huang Tian's voice fell, radiant golden light burst from behind him. A massive pair of golden wings, several hundred meters long, unfurled from his back. The majestic sight exuded an aura of royalty and power.
"It seems that your tribe no longer has any reason to exist in the Beast Region," Gu Fei's calm words carried a lethal intent.
"Ridiculous! My Heaven Demon Phoenix Tribe has stood tall in the Beast Region for so many years! What makes you think a mere brat like you can destroy us?" Huang Tian scoffed, mocking Gu Fei.
Gu Fei had suppressed his strength to the level of a Four-Star Dou Saint due to clan rules, so Huang Tian failed to see through his true power.
"Brother Gu Fei, let me handle this!" Zi Yan, standing beside him, spoke up just as he was about to strike Huang Tian down.
She knew that, as a member of an ancient clan, Gu Fei was bound by certain restrictions. Fully exposing his strength might draw unwanted attention. While Gu Fei didn't care about such opinions, she felt it was better for him to avoid unnecessary exposure.
"Huang Tian, your so-called chicken tribe is nothing but food for my clan. And you dare act so arrogant here?"
Zi Yan stepped forward, taunting Huang Tian without any restraint.
"You… you're from the Ancient Void Dragon Tribe?" Huang Tian's eyes flickered with shock.
When Zi Yan arrived, he had instinctively felt an enmity toward her but hadn't given it much thought, as his focus was on Gu Fei.
"At least your eyes still work!" Zi Yan's words fell, and just like Huang Tian, a pair of massive golden wings extended from her back. Her wings, however, were even more dazzling and magnificent than his.
"Wings of a Phoenix… no, could this be… the legendary Ancient Heaven Phoenix Wings?"
"A Void Dragon's body, Heaven Phoenix Wings… Are you… the legendary Dragon-Phoenix hybrid?"
Seeing the golden wings behind Zi Yan, Huang Tian's face filled with deep shock and fear.
"Today, I'll show you what a true supreme bloodline of the magical beast world looks like!" Zi Yan said coldly before vanishing from sight.
In an instant, she appeared in front of Huang Tian, her fist, glowing with violet-gold energy, slamming directly toward his head.
"So fast!" Huang Tian's heart raced as he hastily raised his claws to block.
*Boom!*
*Crack!*
The collision of two top-tier magical beasts sent invisible shockwaves rippling through the area, toppling several nearby mountains. After the exchange, a cracking sound came from Huang Tian's arm, and intense pain surged through his body.
"A Six-Star Dou Saint? Who are you?" Huang Tian staggered back hundreds of meters, his arm already fractured.
No one had expected that the fight would end so quickly. The gap in their strength was too vast. Zi Yan's Dragon-Phoenix body far surpassed his Heaven Demon Phoenix body, and her cultivation was even a level higher than his.
"You don't deserve to know!" Zi Yan sneered as she resumed her attacks, each strike overwhelming Huang Tian, whose injuries worsened with every blow.
"Miss Zi Yan is terrifying!" Yao Ming, watching Huang Tian get beaten senseless, couldn't hide his shock. The other Nine Serene Deep Ground Python Tribe members felt vindicated as they witnessed this.
'I can't keep this up- I'll die here if this continues…' Huang Tian realized.
With that, he executed the Heavenly Phoenix Step, transforming into a streak of golden light, narrowly dodging each of Zi Yan's punches.
"The Heavenly Phoenix Step lives up to its reputation—its speed is unrivaled, even among Six-Star Dou Saints!" Several experts commented on the fight.
"Get back here!" Zi Yan shouted as she saw Huang Tian trying to flee.
Just as Huang Tian was about to escape the Python Tribe's territory, space distorted, and he suddenly found himself back where Zi Yan had stood. Meanwhile, Zi Yan had swapped places with him in an instant, as if their positions had been exchanged in a blink.
