And yet, on the back of the great Phoenix rests Ji Youzhi.
Upon spotting a figure dressed in black approaching him and the Phoenix, Ji Youzhi immediately thought of the Great Wizard, notorious for distributing clones all around the world.
He quickly drew his sword and lunged at the intruder.
The Phoenix, without any hesitation, flew at the figure, hitting it with a swift talon strike and sending it flying.
With the Great Wizard sent flying, the puppet citizens on the ground were left directionless, providing a much-needed respite for the National Master and the Emperor!
He urgently asked Xie Pan'Er, "Has the Phoenix arrived?"
Xie Pan'Er responded, "I believe I felt its presence; it seemed to be flying around erratically, likely searching for us. So, I called out to it, hoping it would hear my cries and come to our aid!"
As soon as Xie Pan'Er finished speaking, a screech echoed from the skies!
