Ch. 171 Off To The Fox's Den

"As long as he hasn't evolved into a god like us, no one will be able to take our lives." The phoenix emperor's statement left Aria and the others stunned.

"You… you are those celestial spirits?"

"Well, you could say that, but we are the celestial beasts. Not spirits."

Grumble!! The sound of shakings from far away became more apparent and louder, indicating that the army of the serpent king had almost arrived.

"Go. We can't help if the serpent king finds out you're gone and decides to go after you."

Bending down, Lyod carried Aria quickly but gently. "Thank you for everything. I will repay you if we meet again."

"Don't mention it. And one more thing." the phoenix king gave three ice cubes to Khan. "If some low-level monsters attack you, don't battle too long. On the other hand, if it's high level and you can't fight them without using magic, throw an ice cube at them. This won't kill them but will freeze their movement for a while."
