Flame City.

Shi Lang followed Kama, and on the way, he was scrutinized by a lot of people. Kama thought he would feel odd so she said, "You are the first human in this city after a very long time. So, they are just curious." 

Shi Lang nodded but did not comment, it did not harm him even if the people looked at him. He was too weak in their eyes. Even a teenager here was as strong as an Immortal Emperor. He did not have the right to say anything. 

Kama bought him to the palace and said, "Her Excellency is waiting for you in her abode." 

Shi Lang and then they moved through the palace. They came to a grand garden pavilion at the back of the palace, and he found the Phoenix perched on a huge parasol tree.
