Versatile Mage: Spirit Seed Emperor Flame, I will burn for nine days

Yan's direct question made Shao Zheng and Xu Yuheng, who had gathered everyone together, feel a little unhappy.

But considering the other party's age and actual situation, neither of them showed any dissatisfaction. After all, the Moon Moth Phoenix was indeed an insurmountable knot in her heart.

It was this knot in his heart that led to Yan's failure in breaking through more than 30 years ago. Even though he achieved the forbidden spell, it was only half of it.

Yu Shishi was slightly startled, but luckily she had Mo Fan with her, so she didn't react too drastically.

After a slight hesitation, Yu Shishi slowly said, "I'm sorry, it's still in its cocoon state, so I can't tell you its information, but I'm sure it's alive and well."

The answer of refusal made Yan's excited expression a lot less lonely. Shao Zheng also spoke at the right time, "Ahem, senior, please don't get excited. Let's make everything clear first and let Yuheng arrange the next plan."

Compared to Yan Shi, an unknown senior, Shao Zheng naturally stood on Xu Yuheng's side, which made Yan Shi understand instantly. He apologized to Xu Yuheng and said, "I'm sorry, I was a little excited just now, please forgive me."

Even if he was not afraid of the Yan family at all, Xu Yuheng would not be angry with an old man who would not live long.

Seeing Yan's apology, Xu Yuheng smiled and said, "It's okay, I understand you, Senior. But please tell us about the situation back then, so that we, the new guardian of the Moon Moth Phoenix, can understand some of the Moon Moth Phoenix's experiences."

Upon hearing this, Yan hesitated for a moment, then sighed and said, "Well, it's the best news that it survived. There's nothing to hide about what happened back then..."

As she spoke, Yan Shi quietly burst into tears and kept wiping her tears with her sleeves. Her voice became more and more choked up, "I am also the guardian of the Moon Moth Phoenix, but I harmed it!"

The trembling old hand slowly opened its clenched palm, and a moth-tail pendant bracelet hung on the fingertips and swayed gently.

Except for Xu Yuheng and Shao Zheng who already knew some things, the people present had different reactions, and Yu Shishi was the most excited one.

He wanted to ask Yan something, but was stopped by Nan Yu beside him.

Mo Fan, who was confused, suddenly asked, "Since you are also the guardian of the Moon Moth Phoenix, why aren't you with it?"

"Because... because I killed it with my own hands!"

A fact that was hard to accept and even completely unbelievable was said by Yan.

Just a dozen or so words seemed to have drained away the little vitality she had left.

The totem guardian killed the totem beast, a result that most people present did not understand!

Totem guardians are hidden in the world, just like the Lin'an Tang family who guard the black snake. They are one of the few people who still regard the ancient totem beasts as gods.

Their ideas have been passed down for thousands of years, but are no longer recognized by the general public today and are even despised.

Having come across a lot of information about totems, Shao Zheng didn't quite understand it, but what was certain was that the current totem guardians all had a belief that the totem beasts must never be harmed, and they would protect the totem beasts at all costs.

Although he knew that Yan Shi had killed Yue Moth Phoenix, he had no idea why. At that time, he was still a young boy, so how could he possibly be exposed to such a high-level matter.

But as Yan continued to tell the story, everyone knew what was going on.

The reason why Yan Shi killed the Moon Moth Phoenix was because the Moon Moth Phoenix stood against humans at the time.

Thirty years ago, humans helped the Tianguan Zilin Sacred Tree of Kunyu Mountain to fight against the White Magic Eagle Tribe and prevented the White Magic Eagle Tribe from establishing the White Magic Eagle Empire. Together with the Tianguan Zilin Sacred Tree, humans launched a war against the White Magic Eagle Tribe.

After ten days of fighting and bloody battles, the White Demon Eagle was completely suppressed by the human coalition and the Divine Tree Tribe. However, what was unexpected was that the Moon Moth Phoenix appeared at this time, leading a swarm of green moths.

As soon as they appeared, they stood on the opposite side of humans, helping the White Magic Eagle Tribe to frantically attack the Sky Crown Purple Tilia Sacred Tree Tribe, causing the balance of war to tilt once again.

Everyone questioned Yanshi, the totem guardian. After all, for a long time, Yanshi had been spreading the idea that totem beasts were the patron saints of mankind. However, Moon Moth Phoenix's behavior made Yanshi's original efforts become deceptions and lies.

Faced with everyone's doubts, Yan had no choice but to call back the Moon Moth Phoenix with her own will, and kill it in the killing formation she had set up herself.

"The seriously injured and dying Moon Moth Phoenix disintegrated before people's eyes, breaking into numerous green moths that flew away in all directions, and no one knew where they went.

And it was after that that I regained everyone's trust and won the war.

Later... I just couldn't get over it and I quit the magic field."

After Yan Shi finished speaking, Shao Zheng was the first to ask his question, "Old Senior, may I ask why I have worked in the Magic Association for so many years but have never heard of this."

Yan Shi, who was still in a low mood, shook his head helplessly and said, "Of course you don't know that the members of Yuntai City and Qingniao City who participated in this matter have tacitly signed a secret agreement. Even the National Magic Association only knows half of it."

Shao Zheng fell silent. Well, except for the allocation of resources, the Magic Association really had no control over various places, especially thirty years ago.

"That's right, what about the Moon Moth Phoenix?"

After going through so much, Mo Fan is no longer the kind of person who speaks without thinking, and he can still control his temper.

"The Moon Moth Phoenix is ​​right, and it's not humans who are wrong, but the demon tree that looks full of divinity but is secretly cruel and bloodthirsty!"

The person who said this was not Yan, but Xu Yuheng, who was sitting in the vice-chair and had not spoken a word.

"The demon tree itself has the appearance of a sacred tree. Almost all those who have seen its true face have disappeared in Kunyu Mountain."

Mo Fan at the side said, "Since almost everyone is dead, how did you know?"

"There are always people who survive accidents, like..."

"Xu Zhining, he told me this, but at that time I was in a critical period of advancement, and he was still in confinement. Yuntai City and Penglai Magic Association didn't take our words to heart at all, or maybe they wanted peace on land and didn't want any complications."

Shao Zheng took over the conversation, and Yan closed her eyes indifferently. She had tried to explain before, but no one was willing to believe her, let alone give up the "sacred tree" that brought peace on land and huge economic benefits to mankind.

People are always the most resolute when it comes to their own interests.

Even though we know that some things cannot stand up to scrutiny, we can still ignore them for thirty years...
