Chapter 1391 1389: See You Outside!
The world was completely silent!
It was terrifyingly quiet.
The Divine Phoenix was wrapped in black wings, surrounded by darkness, unable to see the outside world at all.
She held her breath, quietly awaiting the arrival of the pressure.
To be honest.
She somewhat regretted leaving Mystic Iron Mountain, not expecting the situation outside to be like this.
To think she lost her life to save some guy who appeared out of nowhere.
However, she had no regrets about meeting Lin Fan!
Being able to live together with Lin Fan for so long, she was already satisfied. Saving this guy, hoping it would help Lin Fan, this way, she could be considered to have died for Lin Fan, which made her death somewhat worthwhile.
She shut off her hearing, sight, and smell, as if she had returned to chaos.
Everything around was surprisingly still.
A breath!
Another breath!
A third breath!
A fourth breath!
A fifth breath!
The Divine Phoenix experienced five complete breaths, yet still didn't feel any pressure descend upon her.
What is going on?
Could it be that guy's skills have surpassed the limits of pain?
If the power is strong enough, it can make one feel no pain and immediately disintegrate into a mist of blood.
Perhaps, this is that guy's true strength.
The Divine Phoenix sighed lightly, feeling a deep sense of helplessness.
Lin Fan, goodbye.
...
However, the world outside was not at all what she imagined.
Boom!
Just as the pressure was about to touch the Divine Phoenix,
a beam of golden light descended from the sky, falling directly in front of her.
Then.
The brilliant gold light dazzled, radiant and striking.
The Xuanyuan Sword descended like it fell from the sky, slashing out a long Sword Qi, directly splitting the wall-like pressure in two.
Emitting a loud noise and shockwave.
"What?!"
Gong Wenya finally had a look of surprise on his previously calm face. His usual composure was no longer existent at this moment.
"Whew—luckily, I made it in time."
Lin Fan stood in front of the Divine Phoenix, looked up, coldly staring at Gong Wenya, with the Xuanyuan Sword in hand, flashing with golden light.
"You bastard, taking advantage of my absence, trying to harm my woman? Who the hell gave you the nerve?!"
"You, how?" Gong Wenya's facade broke completely, his expression changed dramatically, as he looked back at the fiery cage that was still a sea of flames, shocked beyond belief. "Impossible! How could you possibly escape from there, when it was clearly covered by the Netherworld Ghost Fire, and even the Mystic Iron Mountain you hid in was opened by me with a Space Rift, there's no way you could've survived!"
Lin Fan smirked, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Well, now I'm standing right in front of you alive, believe it or not, I'm alive, and doesn't that piss you off?"
"Damn..." Gong Wenya's eye twitched fiercely as he cursed. "Even if you are alive now, you'll still end up dead later!"
"Then let's see who ends up dead in whose hands." Lin Fan said cheekily, not taking Gong Wenya seriously at all.
"Ignorant child! You think this is still Changwen Hall?! Humph, in Changwen Hall I spared your worthless life, can't you see that?! Even though I know Gong Gaoyi did indeed err first by humiliating Zhu Qilue, but so what?! The Fire Clan is now under my control, whoever I want to kill, I can!"
"It's just for now I cannot act openly, but now with no one around, do you think I can't kill you?! I thought you had some brains, but I never expected you'd be just as naive and foolish as Zhu Qilue!"
However.
In response to Gong Wenya's roaring screams, Lin Fan was actually picking his ears!
Gong Wenya thought he must be wrong, blinking his eyes, but Lin Fan was indeed picking his ears.
This action was equivalent to telling Gong Wenya. Everything you said is bullshit, I don't want to hear a single word.
Gong Wenya was instantly furious and enraged out of shame.
No one had ever dared to disrespect him so privately!
In public, everyone acted neither humble nor haughty, but in private, no one dared to oppose Gong Wenya!
During the day.
People respected Zhu Sui as the Clan Leader of the Fire Clan due to his status.
But at night.
High Priest Gong Wenya was the true figure they respected and feared, the true leader of the Fire Clan!
And Lin Fan actually showed such disdain, disrespect, and indifference to such a leader!
"Damn it! Simply damn it!"
Gong Wenya roared in anger, his voice cracking like thunder through the prison.
"Alright, stop barking your head off, show whatever skills you've got, I'd like to see just how powerful you really are. Don't think just because you held back in Changwen Hall, that I was using my full strength either."
Lin Fan's insolence was relentless, provoking Gong Wenya over and over again.
Gong Wenya ultimately couldn't hold back his fury, his eyes turned crimson, his features twisted.
"All your lives end here, no one can escape."
He took a deep breath, and an immensely terrifying aura burst forth from his body, the air currents swirled like a tornado, filling the entire prison with a suffocating low pressure.
Lin Fan didn't dare to be negligent, his previous words were just empty bluster. He was very clear about the gap between himself and Gong Wenya, it was already hard enough to deal with someone like Dongmen Buju, let alone the High Priest of the Fire Clan in the Five Elements Realm.
That was simply unimaginable.
But by nature, he was optimistic, even the most improbable things were possible in his belief.
No matter how powerful Gong Wenya might be, he had to have a weakness, right?
Impossible!
As long as he could survive one round, he was certain to find Gong Wenya's weakness.
He held the Xuanyuan Sword, quickly moving to the side of the Divine Phoenix, giving her a gentle pat.
The Divine Phoenix, still wrapped in her wings, was completely unaware of what had happened in the outside world.
When someone tapped her shoulder.
She finally came back to her senses, slowly unfolded her massive feathers, and glanced outside in astonishment. She found she had waited far too long, without a hint of pain, it didn't feel like death at all, but rather like nothing had happened.
"Lin Fan?!" When she opened her wings, seeing Lin Fan's face, she was overjoyed and beamed triumphantly. "You died too?!"
Lin Fan frowned, rolling his eyes. "What kind of talk is that, the first thing you say upon meeting me is wishing me dead..."
"You're not dead?"
"Of course not!"
"So, that means I'm not dead either?!"
"If you say a couple more foolish things, we might actually die."
Lin Fan quipped, gesturing towards Gong Wenya not far away. The other was gathering strength, with the ground and rock walls subtly trembling, and all the pebbles due to the terrifying aura were suspended in mid-air.
The whole of the Fire Clan's prison was filled with this heart-stopping feeling.
"This is..." The Divine Phoenix was shocked, instantly breaking into a cold sweat.
"Hurry and take Zhu Qilue and Zhu Ruoling and leave, I'll hold off Gong Wenya."
"But..."
"There's no but about it, if you don't leave now, you'll never be able to."
Lin Fan gave the Divine Phoenix a push, handing her the Mystic Iron Mountain.
"If there's nowhere to go, then hide in Mystic Iron Mountain, at least it will hold out during Zhu Qilue's injury."
"Lin Fan..." The Divine Phoenix's voice was weepy, looking at Lin Fan with reluctance.
Lin Fan, however, smiled gently at the Divine Phoenix, softly saying, "We'll meet outside!"
