Battle Through the Heavens: He marries Xun'er, but she refuses to consummate the marriage!

"Now you know how to reason?"

A mocking smile appeared on Gu Fei's lips.

He coldly swept his gaze across the group of high-ranking members of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan before him. These guys were not like this when they besieged the Nine Netherworld Python Clan. They were as arrogant and domineering as they were then, and now they were just as obsequious.

Phoenix's heart sank upon hearing Gu Fei's words. A hint of despair flashed in her beautiful golden eyes as she knew that things were unlikely to end well. With the ancestral phantom broken, how could she, with her cultivation at the mid-stage of the second-star Dou Sheng realm, possibly stop Gu Fei and the others?

Thinking of this, Phoenix took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

"Young Master Gu Fei, this time it was indeed our clan's fault. We shouldn't have gone to the Nine Netherworld Python Clan and disturbed your wife's meditation."

A pleading look appeared on her stunningly beautiful face as she spoke softly.

"Please, spare my people!"

At this point, Phoenix suddenly knelt down, her forehead touching the ground, her voice filled with pleading.

Seeing the proud Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan so humble, the surrounding Heavenly Phoenix Clan members all looked somber.

Once upon a time, their Heavenly Phoenix Clan was so powerful and majestic, but now they have to beg for forgiveness in such a humble way.

"Ha, if only you had known this would happen, you wouldn't have done it in the first place."

Just then, a cold, mocking voice suddenly came from the wooden cell at the top of the huge sycamore tree.

Upon hearing this, everyone looked up and saw a woman in a colorful dress with a graceful figure leaning against the edge of the wooden cell, her eyes full of mockery.

The speaker was none other than Feng Qing'er, who felt utterly disillusioned with the clan's higher-ups. At this moment, she no longer cared about life or death, only seeking her own satisfaction.

"How dare you!"

"Feng Qing'er, you're a convict, yet you dare to speak so recklessly. It seems you don't want to live anymore?"

Eagle Phoenix and Kun Phoenix shouted angrily. Their eyes were wide open, filled with rage.

"Since we're all going to die anyway, it's better to die quickly now than to be taken to be a live sacrifice for that idiot Jiufeng!"

Faced with the reprimands of the two elders, Feng Qing'er showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, she sneered and mocked them.

"If Jiufeng hadn't been so reckless and failed to see the situation clearly, she wouldn't have been killed!"

"And you high-ranking officials, without even distinguishing right from wrong, convicted us!"

"Can we possibly stop such a powerful being?"

"Furthermore, with the strength of our Heavenly Phoenix Clan, seeking revenge against the ancient clans is like throwing an egg against a rock. Just because of the clan leader's personal grudge, are we dragging down the fate of our entire clan?"

Feng Qing'er's words were impassioned and scathing.

Her bright eyes flashed with anger, and her voice was filled with dissatisfaction and disappointment with the tribe's leadership.

These words immediately caused a huge reaction among the clansmen.

Many people nodded secretly, clearly agreeing with Feng Qing'er's words.

Many of these people had long been dissatisfied with the decisions made by the higher-ups in their community, but dared not speak out because of their status and position.

Seeing the reactions of their clansmen, Eagle Phoenix and Kun Phoenix's expressions became noticeably unnatural.

Especially Eagle Phoenix, whose aged face was filled with anger and whose eyes flashed with ferocity.

"Still spouting nonsense, you're asking for it!"

Eagle Phoenix roared angrily, and with a flick of its hand, a gigantic golden eagle claw appeared out of thin air. The claw was over ten zhang wide, exuding a terrifying pressure, and slashed fiercely at the wooden prison.

If this claw strike lands, probably none of the people in the wooden prison will survive.

Just as the eagle's claws were about to strike the wooden prison, an invisible force suddenly appeared and instantly shattered the golden eagle's claws.

"Hehe, interesting!"

Gu Fei chuckled, clearly indicating that he was the one who had blocked Eagle Phoenix's attack.

"He actually saved me?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Feng Qing'er's beautiful eyes; she clearly hadn't expected Gu Fei to lend a helping hand.

Seeing her attack easily neutralized, Eagle Phoenix was clearly stunned.

"Young Master Gu Fei, what is the meaning of my taking action to teach a traitor within my clan a lesson?"

However, he quickly regained his composure and questioned her.

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a purple-gold figure appeared in front of Eagle Phoenix like lightning.

"Who do you think you are, daring to speak to Brother Gu Fei like that!"

Zi Yan snorted coldly and kicked out.

"Bang!"

With a deafening roar, in an instant, the Eagle Phoenix was sent flying, crashing into a distant mountain peak.

The whole process was so fast that almost no one could see it clearly.

It was like a figure flashed by, and the next moment this thing just flew out on its own.

Everyone was stunned.

Before anyone could react...

"Boom!"

The entire mountain collapsed under the blow, sending up clouds of dust. When the dust settled, everyone could see the horrific state of Eagle Phoenix.

He was half-buried in the rubble, blood gushing from his mouth, his life hanging in the balance.

This sudden scene stunned everyone present. You must know that Yinghuang is a powerful one-star Dou Sheng in the middle stage, yet she was kicked like this by Ziyan.

The others were so frightened that they trembled all over and didn't dare to breathe.

Ha ha!

If we don't teach this guy a lesson, he'll never understand.

Am I here to argue with you?

Gu Fei's lips curled up slightly.

"From now on, let her take on the position of clan leader of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan!"

Seeing this, Gu Fei nodded in satisfaction, then turned his gaze to the wooden cell and said calmly.

As he spoke, he pointed at Feng Qing'er.

These words caused an uproar in the room.

Phoenix and Kunhuang were even more shocked upon hearing this, their faces filled with disbelief.

"To appoint a junior with the cultivation level of Dou Zun as the clan leader?"

Phoenix blurted out the answer instinctively, her tone tinged with doubt.

As soon as she finished speaking, she realized that she had said the wrong thing. She saw a cold glint in Gu Fei's eyes, and he raised his hand and unleashed a burst of energy.

"Pfft!"

Phoenix, a cultivator at the level of a two-star Dou Sheng, didn't even have a chance to react before the force pierced through her body, causing a large amount of blood to gush out and stain a patch of sky red. She died on the spot.

"Anyone who disagrees will end up like her!"

Gu Fei said coldly.

This scene completely shocked the powerful members of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan present.

Even Kunhuang, a powerful expert at the late stage of a one-star Dou Sheng, was trembling with fear and dared not utter a sound.

Then, Gu Fei waved his hand lightly, and the huge wooden prison instantly shattered into pieces, freeing the dozen or so people imprisoned inside.

"Let me be the clan leader"

Feng Qing'er walked out of the wooden cell, looking dazed.

I never imagined that things would take such a dramatic turn.

but

Am I really capable of shouldering this heavy responsibility?

Based on his qualifications, he was not worthy of the position of clan leader at all.

Feng Qing'er bit her lip

Soon, Feng Qing'er came to her senses, and a determined look appeared in her beautiful eyes.

Since Young Master Gu Fei has asked me to be the clan leader, then I have nothing to hesitate about!

The Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan is now gradually decaying.

I must pull myself together.

We must reform the Heavenly Phoenix Clan and eliminate its previous corruption.

"Thank you very much, Young Master Gu Fei!"

Thinking about this...

Feng Qing'er took a deep breath, faced Gu Fei, and respectfully knelt down to pay her respects.

Gu Fei nodded.

Through emotional feedback, Gu Fei could clearly understand everyone's inner thoughts. (End of Chapter)
