Chapter 3809: 4.1409 Quickly Worship!

They saw the little girl standing beneath the towering phoenix tree, a small white figure, her skirt fluttering in the wind.

The phoenix tree before them trembled its massive body, pulling its gnarled roots out of the soil bit by bit.

Yes, its countless roots, deeply buried underground, were slowly, slowly pulling themselves out of the earth. The sight almost shocked everyone into silence.

What is this phoenix tree trying to do?

It's about to make a run for it!

Phoenix Island slowly began to crack from its center.

As the phoenix tree's enormous body desperately climbed out from deep underground, this poor island was utterly ravaged, gradually disintegrating...

Qiao Mu watched all of this expressionlessly.

After the phoenix tree's sacred wood essence merged into her body, her internal being was undergoing a transformation.

The immediate priority was for her to find a quiet place to enter seclusion and advance her cultivation, rather than continuing to stand on this collapsing island, staring wide-eyed at Feng Changqing and his group!

The two great high priests of the Phoenix clan, who had rushed over upon hearing the news, stared in astonishment at the scene before them. They immediately prostrated themselves, bowing repeatedly towards the phoenix tree. "Quick, everyone, kneel down and worship our clan's Saintess!"

Everyone looked bewildered.

Worship who?

These two great high priests were second only to the chief elder in their clan.

During the chief elder's seclusion, all clan affairs were handled by the patriarch and these two high priests.

The two great high priests essentially held the authority of vice-patriarchs within the Phoenix clan.

Moreover, they were old and highly respected, revered by everyone in the clan, and no one dared to defy them. Even Patriarch Feng Changqing addressed them respectfully as "Lord High Priest."

Now, both great high priests simultaneously knelt down. Everyone initially thought they were bowing to the phoenix tree, but unexpectedly, it was... to the little girl?

"Quick, everyone kneel down, quickly kneel down!" The two great high priests glared back at the Phoenix clan members with stern, angry expressions.

The Phoenix clan members dared not retort. Although everyone looked bewildered, they all obediently knelt down with a rustle.

Feng Changqing was about to kneel when he was pulled back by the furious Feng Changfei.

"Big Brother, they're going crazy, do we have to go crazy with them too?" Kneel for what? Where did a Saintess come from? The Phoenix clan has never had a Saintess.

"Presumptuous!" The two great high priests glared at Feng Changfei with furious faces, then bowed repeatedly towards Qiao Mu. "This brat is ignorant; we hope the Saintess will forgive him! Quick, kneel down, everyone kneel down and worship!"

Not only were the Phoenix clan members bewildered, but Qiaoqiao herself was a bit stunned at this moment.

She herself truly disliked titles like "Saintess" or "Holy Aunt."

Whenever someone called her Saintess, she instinctively thought of that pretentious Saintess from the Sun-Moon Temple.

After Du Chunjiang's departure, Nie Yaoguang seemed to have vanished, probably retreating to her old lair.

Why were these people kneeling to her and calling her Saintess?

Isn't this ridiculous?!

Qiao Mu looked speechlessly at everyone, led by the two high priests, bowing and prostrating before her. Her small body felt a bit stiff.

"The Saintess has been born," one of the great high priests said, wiping away old tears, and turning to Feng Changqing with a deeply emotional expression. "Our Phoenix clan has hope now. Patriarch, the Saintess has been born, and the phoenix tree is saved."

Feng Changqing still looked completely bewildered.
