The Grand Elder Feng Chaoge of the White Phoenix lineage was consumed by rage. He slammed his palm down towards the Black Phoenix.

Qiao Yu was startled. He quickly used Undead Displacement to switch places with the Black Phoenix and then raised the Aegis Shield.

The surging, violent phoenix power landed on the Aegis Shield and then rampaged wildly.

Qiao Yu's expression changed slightly. Although the strength of this Grand Elder of the White Phoenix clan couldn't compare to the Empty Sky Sword Saint, it wasn't far off.

He forcefully flipped the Aegis Shield open, pushing back this violent force.

Feng Chaoge's eyes revealed a hint of surprise. He hadn't expected this human in front of him to be able to withstand his angry blow.

He stared at the shield in Qiao Yu's hand. Although he didn't recognize it as the Aegis Shield, he instinctively sensed the terrifying nature of the shield.

But then, anger reappeared on Feng Chaoge's face!

"Human, do you want to collude with a traitor of my Phoenix clan?"

"What traitor of the Phoenix clan?" Qiao Yu's face was full of confusion. "Wait, it's okay to fight, but can you explain things clearly first?"

"What are you pretending to be? The entire Black Phoenix lineage betrayed my Phoenix clan. This is something everyone in the Seventh Universe knows!" Feng Chaoge couldn't hide his anger.

"Huh?"

Qiao Yu was dumbfounded and looked back at the Black Phoenix.

The Black Phoenix was also stunned. When she died, the Black Phoenix hadn't betrayed the Phoenix clan yet. Who could have expected this?

The Devouring Demonic Ape on the side had long shrunk into a ball, not daring to say a word.

He never would have imagined that this big brother had not only a Fire Phoenix but also a Black Phoenix that could move!

As the party involved, the ape was now filled with regret, extreme regret!

He vaguely felt that he had been dragged into something extraordinary.

"What 'huh'? Evil Black Phoenix lineage, go to hell!"

Feng Chaoge was about to attack the Black Phoenix again, but Qiao Yu hurriedly stopped him.

"Big brother, wait a minute. There's a misunderstanding here! Take a closer look, my friend is an undead creature, not a living Black Phoenix!"

Feng Chaoge paused, then looked at the Black Phoenix. After careful observation, he realized that the Black Phoenix in front of him had indeed been dead for a long time, just an undead creature.

Then, Feng Chaoge became even more furious.

"Evil Black Phoenix, even in death, you still don't forget to poison my Phoenix clan? Turn to ashes!"

"You damn..." Qiao Yu rolled his eyes. Was this Feng Chaoge missing a screw in his head?

"Grand Elder Chaoge, wait! There might really be a misunderstanding here." Fortunately, Feng Xianhua spoke up in time to stop Feng Chaoge.

"Clan Leader! We can't wait! This is the evil Black Phoenix clan!" Feng Chaoge was anxious.

Feng Xianhua: "..."

Feng Xianhua was a little speechless, but she could still understand Feng Chaoge.

Back when the Black Phoenix lineage betrayed the Phoenix clan, Feng Chaoge was still a young prodigy with a beautiful fiancée.

But his fiancée fell in love with a genius from the Black Phoenix lineage. In the end, when the Black Phoenix lineage defected, his fiancée left with them.

Because of this, Feng Chaoge held a grudge for the rest of his life and never married.

Anyone who encountered such a thing would definitely not be able to stay calm.

"Qiao Yu, can you explain? About your... Black Phoenix friend." Feng Xianhua tried her best to suppress her emotions.

"Um... I really didn't know that the Black Phoenix had betrayed the Phoenix clan, but I will bring back Senior Fire Phoenix's corpse. Thanks to the Black Phoenix for telling me that Senior Fire Phoenix can still be resurrected!"

Qiao Yu told the story of how he encountered the Fire Phoenix's corpse in the other dimension and how he risked his life to snatch the Fire Phoenix's corpse, embellishing it along the way.

"It was a close call! At that time, the deadly dimensional storm was only 0.01 centimeters away from my throat! I was thinking, should I just give up?"

"But the next second, a voice sounded in my heart! No! How can I let Senior Fire Phoenix's corpse be trapped in this dimensional storm? Even... even if it costs me my life, I must snatch Senior Fire Phoenix's corpse!"

"I also... have things that I must complete even if it costs me my life! If I fail, then it can only show that I am just a man of this level!"

"Finally, although I succeeded, I almost lost my life in the dimensional storm, but it doesn't matter... this is all to fulfill my friend's request."

After saying that, Qiao Yu looked at the Black Phoenix affectionately.

Black Phoenix: "..."

If she hadn't been there at the time, she would have really believed it.

And Feng Xianhua and the others had shocked expressions on their faces after hearing Qiao Yu's story.

There was an unusual emotion in Feng Xianhua's phoenix eyes. She had examined the Fire Phoenix's corpse and there were indeed traces of dimensional storm fluctuations on it.

That terrifying aura wouldn't lie. This Fire Phoenix's corpse had definitely been soaked in the dimensional storm for an unknown amount of time.

And the Phoenix clan knew best how terrifying the dimensional storm was. It was something even gods were extremely wary of.

If a member of the Phoenix clan risked their life to this extent for the Fire Phoenix's corpse, they could understand it.

But Qiao Yu was a human!

A human actually rushed into the terrifying dimensional storm to save a Fire Phoenix's corpse. What a noble quality this was!

In this world, is there really selfless affection that transcends races?

Even Feng Chaoge, who had the deepest prejudice against the Black Phoenix, couldn't help but purse his lips. Putting himself in Qiao Yu's shoes, if he were a human, he would definitely not be able to sacrifice his life to rescue a corpse of the Phoenix clan.

While they were shocked, no phoenix noticed that Qiao Yu had quietly moved to the side of the Fire Phoenix's corpse.

Feng Xianhua took a deep breath to calm her mind, and then slowly said.

"Qiao Yu... you are indeed a great benefactor to my Phoenix clan. We can no longer dwell on the matter of the Black Phoenix, but the matter of the Great Sun Golden Flame is really of great importance and I cannot easily decide."

"The Fire Phoenix corpse you rescued is the ancestor of my Fire Phoenix lineage, with a high status and great prestige. Why don't we wait until she is resurrected and let her make the decision?"

Hearing this, Qiao Yu's mouth curled into a slight arc.

Sure enough, favor is favor, and interests are interests.

He had already spoken so emotionally and tearfully, but the other party still wanted to say that they would wait for the ancestor to be resurrected before making a decision. What if the ancestor said no after being resurrected?

Then wouldn't he lose both the corpse and the fire? He would lose the Great Sun Golden Flame and a free Fire Phoenix fighter.

Fortunately, he had already prepared for the worst. Qiao Yu raised his hand and directly put the Fire Phoenix's corpse into the undead space.

"Then never mind, I suddenly changed my mind. It's quite good for me to keep this Fire Phoenix corpse for my own collection. I'll hang it on the wall and admire it every day. After I've admired it enough, I'll take it to the auction house and sell it. Goodbye!"

Qiao Yu turned around and left without any hesitation.

"Damn it, stop!"

"Beast, come back here!"

"You damn!"

The several Grand Elders of the Phoenix clan instantly went crazy.
