Getting Rid

"What? The Patriarch's location has been found!?"

A Grand Elder of the Fire Phoenix Clan abruptly shot up from his seat.

The others at the round table also stood up as they turned solemn while looking at the messenger who forced himself into the meeting hall.

This wasn't the first time they were meeting, nor was it the first time they'd had a messenger run into their clan and report a piece of bad news as tons of other dangers were befalling them as well since they failed to end the Emperor of Death.

Now, the other powers were demanding them compensation. Of course, they didn't give a single immortal crystal, but as more time passed, more powers joined in ganging up on them. The Phoenix Alliance had also forsaken them, so there was little to rely on, truly plunging them into the very calamity they tried to avoid.

Quickly, twelve Grand Elders flew out of the Fire Phoenix Clan.

*Whizzz!~*
