Chapter 2522
2522 The Phoenix became a yellow chicken
The gray-robed elder had not expected this. He had been toyed with by Ling Chuxi time and time again. This time, after Ling Chuxi escaped, he no longer let his guard down. He kept a close watch on his surroundings, afraid that Ling Chuxi would quietly return. He had seen Ling Chuxi’s many tricks and did not dare to be as careless as before. However, he did not expect that under his careful vigilance, Ling Chuxi would actually still return. She had done so silently, without even him noticing.
The gray-robed elder and Yue Jianqing did not notice that not long after Ling Chuxi’s figure disappeared, a small insect that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, carrying an ordinary-looking tree seed, quietly moved close to the ground and returned to the outside of the battle.
Ling Chuxi had long understood that if Yue Jianqing was not the opponent of this gray-robed old man, her escape would have been in vain. This old man would catch up to her sooner or later. It was better to stay and fight to the death. Two against one was better than one against one. If Yue Jianqing could kill her opponent, why would she run away? Moreover, no matter what Yue Jianqing’s character was, she was now her companion. She would never abandon any of her companions. This had always been her unchanging Creed.
“Grey abyss sword technique, slash!” Ling Chuxi did not waste her breath on him. Taking advantage of the fact that he had just been injured, she used the grey abyss sword technique at lightning speed. The Luo Chen sword was already broken into two. She was using the long sword she had picked up from the blue wave sect. Its quality was far from being comparable to the Luo Chen sword, and she couldn’t use her full strength.
However, even if she used her strongest power, she was still not the gray-robed elder’s opponent. This sword was actually just a cover.
Yue Jianqing’s actual combat experience was rich. She knew that this was an opportunity that could not be missed. She also suppressed her injuries and joined forces with Ling Chuxi to attack.
“Do you think that the two of you can kill me with your full strength?” The grey-robed old man said with disdain.
He had long known about Ling Chuxi’s moves and did not take them to heart at all. Yue Jianqing was already injured, so there was even less to fear.
In the midst of the sword light and Thunder, Ling Chuxi’s grey abyss sword technique and the thunderclap ninth heaven once again came crashing down.
The grey-robed old man was fearless. He waved the ancient sword in his hand, and sword-lights shot up into the sky.
Suddenly, a clear and melodious cry resounded through the sky. A little bird shining with golden light flew out from the Cang Yuan sword light and crashed into the gray-robed old man. Its body continued to grow in size as it flew.
A pair of golden wings fluttered in the wind, and a pair of long tail feathers swayed behind her, drawing a beautiful and extraordinary stream of light.
“Phoenix!” The grey-robed old man exclaimed.
The Golden figure in front of him was the legendary ancient divine beast: A Phoenix! Even though it was several times smaller than the legendary Phoenix, it was undoubtedly a Phoenix.
The gray-robed old man would never have thought that Ling Chuxi would actually possess such a divine beast. In his shock, his mind actually went blank for a short while.
By the time he regained his senses, the Golden Phoenix had already arrived in front of him. He shouted and no longer cared about Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen. He spread all his Yuan Qi in front of his chest to defend himself.
“BOOM!” A tremendous force was transmitted, and the gray-robed elder was knocked back two steps.
The golden light also disappeared in an instant, and a little yellow chick as fat as a hen fell to the ground with a plop. It stood up and swayed a few times before falling back down on its butt.
“Isn’t it Phoenix? Why did it become a little yellow chick?” The gray-robed elder’s eyes widened in shock as he looked at the little yellow chick on the ground.
