Chapter 105: The Whereabouts of the Phoenix Clan
Feiyin kicked the man’s thigh and yelled, “Get up and follow me.”
The man stood up silently and glanced at Xia Muqing again, but he didn’t betray them.
After the two of them had left, the woman at the entrance of the city was still talking about that man. Her words were extremely explicit.
Xia Muqing let go of the wooden board in her hand and the entire underground cave was closed.
Jiang Yifan said, “The Goddess Clan is more famous than the Shamans. There are also more historical records. The Goddess Clan is a clan that only has women. They steal men to produce children.”
Xia Muqing asked, “What happened to those men after the children were born?”
Jiang Yifan was silent for a moment before pointing to a corner. “There.”
Xia Muqing and the rest looked around. The cave was dark and only a few broken gaps revealed little light. But with this little light, they could still see clearly. There were arms and legs hanging on the wall and something that resembled human skin. Were these all real?
In an instant, they felt a chill running down their spines.
Perhaps because of psychological reasons, they smelled a whiff of something rotten.
The feathers on the little phoenix wings were shuddering. It buried its head in Jiang Yifan’s chest and refused to raise its head.
Unexpectedly, Radiant Sun, who looked the strongest among them, was the first to scream. Although Xia Muqing had covered its mouth in time, its scream still attracted the attention of the goddesses on the ground.
“It’s a phoenix’s voice. Did those old fellows escape again?”
They discussed among themselves for a while before running straight to the prison where the Phoenixes were kept.
Fortunately, because Radiant Sun had made a sound out of fright just now, they had accidentally discovered the place where the phoenixes were being held.
As the only female in the team, Xia Muqing signaled them with her eyes and left.
She found a set of Goddess clan clothes in the backyard of a household and changed into it. Then, she swaggered into the crowd and followed them to the prison.
The people from the Goddess clan were all good-looking. Xia Muqing was originally very pretty, so she didn’t look out of place when she joined them.
She attracted more attention from the onlookers. Just when Xia Muqing thought that she had been exposed, a woman approached her and asked, “Are you from Hundred Flowers Clan?”
Xia Muqing didn’t know what she was talking about and simply nodded.
The woman looked at her with envy. “The Hundred Flowers Clan is the only place with men in our Goddess Clan. If it weren’t for my lack of beauty, I would want to enter too.”
Xia Muqing sized her up. She didn’t look too bad either. She looked especially cute with her dimples.
As they spoke, they arrived at a place that was surrounded by rocks. It was very quiet inside. Flying Bird, who had heard the news, rushed over and opened the cell to take a look. The members of the phoenix clan were all fine inside.
Her expression darkened. “These beasts are all fine here. Why are you making a fuss?”
Her expression was one of impatience and rage. She must have been in the midst of something and was interrupted. Xia Muqing thought of the man that was taken away and she raised her eyebrows slightly.
No one dared to speak under her furious gaze, and they all lowered their heads.
It seemed like this woman’s status in the goddess clan was quite high.
Flying Bird glanced at them fleetingly and stopped at Xia Muqing. Her body stiffened and she lowered her head.
However, she left after taking a look.
Xia Muqing heaved a sigh of relief. She looked at the prison where the phoenixes were kept, and wondered how she could save them.
“Come with me.”
Xia Muqing was deep in thought when she noticed that everyone was staring at her. She looked up and saw that the person who had just spoken was Flying Bird. She was pointing at her.
