Chapter 1336: Holding Back

Chapter 1337: Holding Back

The Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island raised his brow and asked, “What are you trying to say?”

Jing Sheng said in a deep voice, “I suggest that Senior Brother Heavenly Phoenix should fight with Long Mo and the victor will be the young master of Divine Phoenix Island!”

“That’s right!”

Jing Ming added, “Senior Brother Heavenly Phoenix has been in Divine Phoenix Island for so long. That’s only fair for him.”

“Fufu,”

Mo Ying sneered, “What a joke! Long Mo is only at the Dharma Characteristic realm and Heavenly Phoenix is a Conjoint Body Mighty Figure. There’s no fairness to speak of in a fight between the two of them!”

“Furthermore, the young master of Divine Phoenix Island isn’t someone who can be crowned just because he’s strong in combat!”

When Jing Ming saw that Mo Ying was enraged, he was a little afraid as well. However, he still braced himself and argued, “However, it doesn’t mean that his combat strength can be weak. Wouldn’t Divine Phoenix Island be a joke if any casual person could just suppress our Island Master with ease?”

Jing Sheng rolled his eyes and a plot came to mind. “Elder Mo Ying’s words are not unreasonable. Since their cultivation realms are different, this battle is indeed unfair.”

“Since that’s the case, I’ll spar with Fellow Daoist Long Mo. If you can’t even defeat me, then… fufu.”

Jing Sheng laughed. Although he did not continue, his meaning was clear.

At this point, Su Zimo grinned at Jing Sheng.

For some reason, when he saw Su Zimo smile, Jing Sheng’s heart palpitated inexplicably and his hairs stood on end!

It felt as though he was targeted by an extremely terrifying ferocious beast and was about to face a calamity at any moment!

Jing Sheng gulped, feeling a little worried. He added, “Of course, even if I lose, it doesn’t mean anything. My combat strength is ordinary to begin with.”

“At that time, we can wait until Fellow Daoist Long Mo reaches the Conjoint Body realm before sparring with Senior Brother Heavenly Phoenix.”

This suggestion was killing two birds with one stone.

As an outsider, Su Zimo did not have much foundation and prestige in Divine Phoenix Island to begin with. If he were to lose to Jing Sheng, no one would be willing to acknowledge him.

It did not matter even if Su Zimo won.

A fair fight would only come after Su Zimo advanced to the Conjoint Body realm.

In other words, the matter of the young master could only be put aside for the time being.

Su Zimo’s gaze landed on Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix.

It had to be said that Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix could truly hold his ground.

Right from the beginning, he had not expressed his viewpoint, as though he was not directly involved.

The attitude of Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix was interesting—he did not agree nor did he reject.

The Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island had a dark expression and remained silent.

Su Zimo smiled without saying anything as well.

To him, Jing Ming and Jing Sheng were like two clowns that were of no threat at all.

Su Zimo was fearless even if he followed their suggestion!

In the battle of Heaven and Earth Valley, how many Conjoint Body Mighty Figures died in his hands?

No matter how strong Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix was in combat and how much of a monster incarnate he was, he was only comparable to the Mighty Figures of the primordial races at most.

Even Mighty Figures of the primordial races could be killed with the trump cards of the Dragon True Body!

The gaze of the Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island shifted as he looked at Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix at the side and asked, “Heavenly Phoenix, what do you think?”

“I’ll leave it up to you entirely, Island Master,”

Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix replied with a smile.

The Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island nodded and looked at Jing Sheng and Jing Ming before saying expressionlessly, “The suggestion made by the two of you is truly not bad.”

“Is that so?”

Jing Ming chuckled. “I think it’s not bad either.”

The smile on the face of Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix stiffened.

He could hear the repressed rage in the tone of the Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island!

“The Saber Emperor has orders that whoever wields the Dragon Soul Saber will be the young master of Divine Phoenix Island,”

The Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island’s expression turned cold as he said slowly, “The two of you are truly promising. Are you going to go against the rules left behind by the Saber Emperor?”

Jing Ming and Jing Sheng realized that something was amiss as well and their hearts skipped a beat.

Jing Ming replied hurriedly, “Please calm down, Island Master. I-I didn’t mean that.”

“How dare the two of you!”

Suddenly, the Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island shouted.

Thump!

Jing Ming and Jing Sheng were so frightened that they knelt on the ground with pale faces.

The might of the Island Master and the wrath of a Half-Martial Ancestor was something that the two of them could not withstand at all. They were so scared that their souls almost left their bodies and they pissed their pants.

Su Zimo was silent.

This scene had truly exceeded his expectations.

Initially, he thought that even if he possessed the Divine Phoenix Bone, he would be an outsider and it would be difficult for him to gain the recognition of Divine Phoenix Island in a short period of time.

To think that the Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island would stand on his side without any hesitation when he wielded the Dragon Soul Saber!

“The two of you are only at the Dharma Characteristic realm and yet you want to go against the Saber Emperor’s orders and disrespect the young master of Divine Phoenix Island. I don’t think there’s any need for you guys to retain your cultivations anymore.”

The Island Master of Divine Phoenix Island said coldly.

“Island Master, please calm down!”

“Island Master, please spare us!”

Jing Ming and Jing Sheng were scared out of their wits and kowtowed repeatedly, begging for mercy.

The other surrounding cultivators could not bear it either and wanted to plead for mercy. However, they did not dare to, afraid that they would be implicated as well.

“Greetings, young master!”

Suddenly, a voice sounded beside him.

All the cultivators looked over and were shocked.

Even Su Zimo’s eyes flashed with surprise.

Nobody expected that the first person to greet the young master would be Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix!

What did that mean?

Even Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix had bowed down?

At that moment, Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix arrived before Su Zimo and bowed slightly with cupped fists. “I’m Heavenly Phoenix. Greetings, young master. If you have any orders from now on, I’ll lay my life on the line without regrets!”

Su Zimo’s reaction was extremely swift and he smiled as well. “You’re too kind, Senior Heavenly Phoenix. There’s no need to stand on courtesy.”

However, at the same time, he was secretly shocked.

This Heavenly Phoenix sure was a character!

He was scarier than Su Zimo had imagined!

In fact, when Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix asked about Die Yue’s whereabouts, Su Zimo was already alerted.

When he mentioned that Die Yue had already left, although Heavenly Phoenix expressed disappointment and pity, there was a hint of relief in the latter as well.

Of course, that was merely Su Zimo’s intuition and could be inaccurate.

Thereafter, something else made Su Zimo even more guarded against Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix!

His epiphany process was seemingly interrupted by Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix by accident.

If it was unintentional, it would have been fine.

However, if it was intentional…

Later on, Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix wanted Mo Ying to leave.

However, Mo Ying did not agree.

That action seemed like it was nothing.

However, everything that happened later on was worth pondering about.

After that, Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix wanted to take Su Zimo to the Dragon Soul Hall.

Subduing the Dragon Soul Saber was extremely dangerous and a single mistake could lead to severe injuries.

It was impossible for Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix not to know that!

However, he expressed his gestures as goodwill.

Indeed, Mo Ying stopped his suggestion.

But, Su Zimo wanted to see the Dragon Soul Saber as well and agreed to it along with the flow, resulting in the scene earlier.

That was the reason why Su Zimo felt that Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix was a little terrifying.

It was because right from the beginning, Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix did not show any hostility towards him!

On the surface, his actions were completely out of goodwill.

After all, everything that happened earlier was Su Zimo’s guess without any evidence.

Now, Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix took the initiative to bow down and acknowledge him as the young master.

If Mighty Figure Heavenly Phoenix was sincere, it would mean that Su Zimo was being petty and thought too much previously.

However, if this person was scheming something, it would mean that he was way too good at holding back!
