The Legend of Zhu San
296: White Phoenix stratagem
“So it seems, so the Upper World is in a tempest because of the appearance of the Snake Demon Queen?”
The Fox Demon Queen was dumbstruck after hearing the White Phoenix's explanation.
“Is that mirror what He's looking for?” The Demon Fox Queen pointed at a wall where the old mirror was attached, not far from where they were.
“Where did you get that mirror Queen?” White Phoenix asked after observing the mirror that had a frame made of that kind of silver.
“My servant found him in a place that had been torn apart shortly after he heard the sound of a fight. It happened a few hundred years ago when He adventured, out of this Eternal Snow Mountain.“
The White Flame Phoenix was not surprised to hear this, as he had expected it when he saw the mirror for the first time.
“Queen of the Foxes, If the Goddess of Darkness knew you had it, surely He would come looking for you. Don't you intend to seek him out and take revenge for the death of your entire nation by that Serpent Demon Queen?”
The Demon Fox Queen stared at the White Phoenix intently, She felt that she was being provoked by the Phoenix Bird Demon King.
“What is your real purpose for coming to this place?”
The Fox Queen's question made the White phoenix gulp down his saliva before explaining what his true purpose was here.
He came because he wanted to invite the Fox Queen to ally with him against the Snake Demon Queen. There was a history that He could not forget about what the Snake Demon ancestors did to the Phoenix Bird Demon Nation.
The Demon Fox Queen fell silent for a moment after hearing the explanation. “Alright if so, I have indeed waited thousands of years for this moment. It's time for me to take revenge on him.”
White Phoenix resigned, after determining the time of their next meeting, which was two days from now in Dezhao City, one of the big cities in the Qiang Empire located in the Red Continent
The White Fire Phoenix immediately left Goa in the Eternal Snow Mountain located in the northern part of the Black Continent.
The Black Continent was the continent that was in the northern part of the Upper World, while the blue continent in the middle and the Red Continent were in the Southern part.
“Live one more step, I have to meet the Goddess of Darkness and invite her to meet at the same place. That way they would meet and fight in that City. May the Fox Demon Queen leave the Milky Way Mirror in her cave.”
The White Phoenix immediately changed its form into a Bird. With his extremely high Speed, the White Phoenix had arrived at the Red Cloud continent in less than two hours.
Just then Qiu Lan had just pounded a single city in the territory of the Jiao Empire, that city called Jiaozhou, had now been within the power of Qiu Lan.
The city was overrun after an hour they attacked and massacred the entire imperial army of about ten thousand people.
The White Phoenix suppressed his nausea, feeling the rancid smell of blood filling the air of Jiaozhou city as he floated to the center of the city where Aura Qiu Lan was.
“Where Are You White Phoenix?”
Qiu Lan asked after seeing the White Phoenix enter the room where the body of the Jiaozhou City Governor was lying with his head almost crushed.
“I'm sorry Goddess of Darkness, I just got important information about the whereabouts of the Milky Way Mirror.” Qiu Lan's face changed upon hearing White Phoenix's remark.
“Quickly tell me where the Mirror is?”Qiu Lan immediately stood up from her seat. Coinciding with the entry of Chi Yu and the Blue Phoenix into the room.
The two immediately reported that they had searched the entire city and had yet to find a mirror that could withstand the blows of the Dark Alliance Members.
“I was informed that the magic mirror was in the hands of the Demon Fox Queen who was disguised with a human form. He will be in Dezhao city in two days from now.”
“The Demon Fox Queen? Didn't He die two thousand years ago?” Qiu Lan asked who looked disbelief at the White Phoenix's words.
“I also can't believe the information I heard from those antique dealers. The woman who would transact with them was a white-haired woman. I believe that the woman is the Demon Queen of the White Fox.”
White Phoenix paused for a moment before saying that it would not hurt if they proved the truth of the information. If the woman was not the White Fox Demon Queen, then it was easy for them to take the antique Mirror that was about to be sold.
Qiu Lan was silent for a moment, I don't know what she was thinking. But a moment later, he smiled and said he would be heading to Dezhao City in two days.
He asked White Phoenix to wait for him in the city. White Phoenix responded. But before that he asked permission to return to his residence first.
Qiu Lan allowed it, but he threatened to kill the White Phoenix if it did not keep his word.
***
One day later, in a town not far from the Sacred Sword Sect, a man in his fifties entered a diner crowded with customers.
He came to an old man wearing a robe with a head covering, at a table in the corner of the large room.
“Pendekar Long, you have arrived first apparently.” The man said softly after pulling the seat in front of him the grandfather who was none other than Long Niu.
“I don't want to make you wait too long Phoenix White.” Long Niu replied while drinking wine in her cup. “What information do you want to convey.”
White Phoenix immediately brought her body closer to the side of the table.” Tomorrow there will be a great fight in the city of Dezhao in the Qiang Empire region between the Demon Queen of the White Fox and the Goddess of Darkness.”
Long Niu looked shocked to hear that. “I have pitted the two Demon Queens against each other. I hope someone from the White Stream alliance comes to a cave in Eternal Snow Mountain.”
Long Niu was slightly astonished to hear White Phoenix's remark. “What makes the two fight?” Ask the White Phoenix.
“Sukma Melting Mirror. The Demon Queen of the White Foxes who held the Milky Way Mirror. I have seen the mirror myself, and I have told the Goddess of Darkness about it.”
White Phoenix was silent for a moment before telling her plan.
He could only hope that the Demon Fox Queen did not bring the Milky Way Mirror back to Dezhao City. That way the person from the white flow alliance could take the mirror.
But If the Demon Fox Queen took him, then He alone would seize and kill both of them when they were injured in the fight.
“Phoenix White, your plan is very dangerous, your life is at stake. What made you do all this?”
Long Niu asked after He understood the plan drawn up by the White Phoenix.
That Phoenix Bird Demon King, smiled at Long Niu's question. He knew that Long Niu had yet to fully believe in him.
“Alright I'll tell you. But not here. This place is too dangerous.” He said while standing.
