Chapter 3893: Delay?

"Audacious!" a young man from the Phoenix Clan reprimanded Huang Qishan, his eyes openly showing disgust. "What do you take our clan territory for?"

"Do you people even deserve to enter our clan territory?"

Huang Qishan and his companions' eyes flashed with anger. They glared at the Phoenix Clan member, unable to stop themselves from shouting, "How dare you speak like that? We..."

"Slap, slap!" Two sudden gusts of wind, like invisible hands, heavily struck Huang Qishan's mouth, just as he was about to provoke them further.

Qiao Mu watched indifferently, her face full of mockery.

The Phoenix Clan, every single one of them, are cultivators in the Divine Realm. You, a mere Spirit Realm cultivator, shouldn't be bouncing around in front of them, okay?

Huang Qishan turned to Qiao Mu in a rage, his face somewhat contorted. "Crown Princess, is this how your clan members treat their fellow students??"

"Say one more word of nonsense, and I'll make sure you can't utter another word for the rest of your life!" Qiao Mu impatiently turned her head, a sharp glint in her eyes.

Huang Qishan was startled, backing away several steps and stepping on someone's foot. That person cried out in pain and unceremoniously pushed him hard.

"Feng Heping." Qiao Mu's gaze coldly swept to the Phoenix Clan's Chief Elder.

"Take your people and quickly leave this place. Go back to your own clan territory." These Phoenix Clan members had lived in seclusion for a long time; there was no need to drag them into this messy situation.

Unexpectedly, the elder in green merely smiled faintly. "Since the Saintess insists on staying here, all Phoenix Clan members listen to my command: remain here to assist the Saintess. You must protect the Saintess well."

"Yes!"

Qiao Mu reached up and rubbed her forehead, turning away with a headache, simply ignoring these people.

She had always been a naturally aloof person. She was truly unaccustomed to such a sudden influx of people showing inexplicable favor towards her.

This made a faint sense of fear rise from the bottom of her heart...

Hmph, where in the world is there such a good thing?

Who else would be unconditionally good to her like her own family?

Moreover, she clearly took their ten-thousand-year phoenix wood. Why are they being so good to her? Isn't that strange?

Mo Lian, beside her, remained silent throughout, but felt inexplicably stifled.

What's going on?

So many pretty boys suddenly appeared around Qiao Qiao. Mo Lian inexplicably felt a sense of crisis.

Little Qiao took small steps, then walked back a bit, suddenly realizing her husband was standing dazedly in place, pondering who knows what, not moving at all.

The little one quickly pattered back to his side, reached out and took his hand, and pulled him along.

Everyone: ...

How much does this little girl adore her husband? She can't bear to leave him for even a few seconds; she immediately has to pick him up and take him home.

The two returned to the small building, where Duan Yue, with a smiling face, greeted them at the door.

"How is it?"

"The Phoenix Clan members have arrived," Qiao Mu said expressionlessly.

"If the odds of winning before were fifty percent, now they should be eighty percent." The remaining twenty percent of uncertainty was because who knew if that disorganized bunch of weaklings in the base would betray them in battle.

"Qiao Qiao, I have a strange premonition," Duan Yue said softly, walking over to her side. "Heaven's Fortune's actions this time seem to be just to delay us."

"After this is over, I need to go back," Duan Yue said with a faint smile, looking at her. "I'll do everything I can to stop all their actions."
