Chapter 110 - Saving the Phoenix Clan
Chapter 110: Saving the Phoenix Clan
The moment Xia Muqing walked past them, she quickly inserted the silver needles into the back of their necks and they collapsed to the ground.
Jin Choa rushed forward and dragged the unconscious women into a dark corner. Then, they entered the prison.
The phoenixes were locked in a huge cage. The originally huge birds were squeezed together pitifully.
When they saw Xia Muqing, their eyes were filled with disbelief.
Xia Muqing quickly explained, “I’m here to save you all. Be quiet, I’ll bring all of you out.”
Jin Chao was already thinking of ways to break the lock of the cage.
After the little phoenix’s explanation, the phoenixes looked at Xia Muqing gratefully. The leader of the Phoenix Clan added, “Flower, the Phoenix Clan owes you a huge favor.”
Xia Muqing shook her head. “We’re friends, aren’t we?”
These words touched the hearts of the phoenixes so much that their eyes welled up with tears. If not for the fact that this place wasn’t suitable for them to speak loudly, they would have flown into the air and started singing.
Xia Muqing counted them. Fortunately, they were all here and didn’t suffer any injuries like the black eagle.
Thinking of how the black eagle had lost its eyes, Xia Muqing’s heart sank.
Jin Chao unlocked the cage swiftly.
Xia Muqing looked at the huge phoenixes. Moving them was a major problem.
The leader of the phoenixes suggested, “Flower, there is a secret path that allows us to leave the island. I managed to escape the last time, but I was captured again later on.” It sighed with pity.
Xia Muqing recalled the charred black rocks they saw before entering the island. Her eyes lit up and she nodded. “Where’s the hidden path?”
It pointed at a hole the size of a dog behind the prison and said, “Through this hole, you can see a cave. We can escape through the hole.”
Xia Muqing looked at the entrance and asked, “How did you discover it?”
The leader looked a little embarrassed and skipped the topic. “Let’s leave quickly.”
The members of the Phoenix Clan couldn’t help but chuckle softly.
Xia Muqing said, “You guys go out first. I still have to go back to the Azure Cloud Eagle and the others.”
The leader pondered thoughtfully. “They were taken away by those women a few days ago.”
Xia Muqing asked in surprise, “You’ve seen them before?”
It nodded and replied, “They were captured together with us, but they were suddenly taken away a few days ago. They said that they were going to activate some formation. It seems like they’re going to wake up someone.”
Xia Muqing continued, “Magus God.”
It quickly nodded and said, “Yes, that Witch God.”
Xia Muqing frowned and pondered. She said, “You guys can leave first. I’ll save them.”
The leader knew that they wouldn’t be of much help here and that they would only be a burden. Hence, it nodded and agreed to the plan.
Initially, the little phoenix didn’t want to leave. However, Xia Muqing forced it to leave first. It then left with its father unwillingly.
Since Jin Chao couldn’t understand the phoenixes, he could only look at Xia Muqing.
Xia Muqing explained the current situation briefly and Jin Chao nodded. “Only the whereabouts of the Azure Cloud Eagle couple remains a mystery.”
Xia Muqing nodded and said in distress, “The black eagle can’t provide any answers now.”
He glanced at her, and subconsciously reached out to soothe her tightly furrowed eyebrows.
Both of them were stunned by his actions.
Xia Muqing retreated backward, finally relieving the awkwardness. She didn’t dare to look into his eyes today. “Let’s go.”
Looking at her slightly red earlobes, the corners of his mouth curled into a smile.
Coincidentally, Xia Muqing noticed him. She glared at him and hissed, “What are you laughing at? Is this the time to laugh? Let’s go.”
Jin Chao agreed good-naturedly and trailed behind her slowly with his hands behind his back.
