Chapter 426: Chapter 428 White Phoenix Tail Blossom
Everywhere was a mess.
рlease,reading On ΒΟXΝOVEL.ϹʘM
The city walls had been damaged, and some of the able-bodied citizens within had been seriously injured.
The stench of dead lizards pervaded both inside and outside Yellow Leaf City, and from some distance away, the dance of Dragon Lamps could occasionally be seen, providing scant comfort in the terrifying darkness of the night.
It had finally quieted down.
In just one day’s time, the guards of Yellow Leaf City had been brutally slaughtered.
Come nightfall, the city was seen by demons as a huge platter, with all the living as meat upon it.
But at last, peace had returned, and people could no longer hear the roar or the trembling from outside the city.

…
Having completed the Soul Collecting Pearl Brewing, Zhu Minglang returned to the city gate.
The able-bodied citizens gathered by the old officials, holding torches, immediately surrounded him.
The old official of Yellow Leaf City ordered some people to continue scouting on the city walls, and rushed down himself to approach Zhu Minglang.
Everyone looked at Zhu Minglang with faces full of admiration and respect, but above all else, gratitude.
Living in such a world, everyone knew that even within a great city walls one was not absolutely safe. In times of danger, not every time would one meet such a valiant person to step up, after all, even their rulers, the Yan Clan, turned a blind eye to their life and death.
Grateful, they wanted to bring out their household treasures.
Glancing at the silks, gold bracelets, silver jewelry, bronze swords, jade pieces, and herbs piled up before him, Zhu Minglang gave a wry smile and shook his head.
This bit of money probably wouldn’t even be enough to feed his Little Black Dragon and Little Azure Dragon one meal.
“I appreciate your kindness, folks, but there’s really no need for these things. We at the Dragon Taming Academy have always been of chivalrous heart. It’s not easy for you all this winter; keep it for buying next year’s crops and seedlings for herbs,” Zhu Minglang refused.
With so many small items, Zhu Minglang didn’t even know how to carry them all.
A four-thousand-year-old Soul Bead from a Different Demon Lizard was worth far more than what these people were offering him.

They were all common folk; life was not easy for them, especially now that the city no longer had guards. After all, it was up to everyone to pool their money and organize protection. Otherwise, if bandits and marauders arrived, they would suffer once again.
“The Lizard Water Monsters in the other towns have been eradicated as well. We really cannot thank your Dragon Taming Academy enough,” the old official said with tears streaking down his face. Yellow Leaf City had managed to escape a catastrophe.
“It’s nothing, it’s nothing, we’re also out practicing,” Zhu Minglang said.
“Benefactor, it really doesn’t sit right with me that you’re leaving without taking anything as an official of Yellow Leaf City. However, there is one thing I would like to show you, if you would be willing to accompany me?” the old official whispered.
The old official’s tone was cloaked in mystery, and judging by his expression, it seemed the item was far from ordinary.
“There’s no need for such politeness, elder,” Zhu Minglang still declined.
In Yellow Leaf City, it was only their medicinal ointments that were really good – high quality and low price – but other than that, nothing was of interest to someone of Zhu Minglang’s status.
“This… to tell you the truth, our City Master might have died because of this artifact. A high-ranking person from the Yan Clan called our City Master over, hoping he would present this item to them. The City Master knew the danger of possessing a valuable artifact, so he entrusted the item to me for safekeeping. After that, a series of horrific events unfolded; the City Master didn’t make it back alive, and Zhou Liang ended up as the scapegoat. In the end, even we guards suffered,” the old official spoke in a hushed voice.
“Oh?” Upon hearing this, Zhu Minglang felt that the item was anything but ordinary, “Then take me to see it.”
“Great, that’s wonderful. Please follow me, benefactor,” the old official said with a look of joy.
As the old official had said, to possess a valuable artifact without the might is to invite calamity.
When a person does not have the strength to protect it, but owns an item of great value, they easily attract fatal trouble.

The old official was actually very nervous inside. He didn’t know what use that thing had, but because of it, quite a few people had died. He feared that one day he might also suffer a violent death.
It wasn’t that he wanted to pass this hot potato on to Zhu Minglang, rather he felt that given Zhu Minglang’s strength, he probably didn’t need to worry too much about the Yan Clan’s greed.
Right now, the old official just wanted to live in peace.
…
Reaching an underground wine cellar, Zhu Minglang followed the old official to a spot where Yellow Leaf Wine was stored.
Opening a wine jar, Old Official Zhou Qiu took out the object wrapped in leather.
Zhu Minglang looked at the item inside with puzzlement and examined it carefully, but he still wasn’t quite sure what it was.
After a while, Zhu Minglang noticed the very fine filaments on it, which indeed resembled the tail of a White Moth. Zhu Minglang immediately touched it with his hand, and instantly felt an immensely powerful holy aura that made his fingers heat up!
“What is this??”
“A Giant White Witch Moth’s tail filament?”
“But it also looks a bit like the fifth tail feather grown by Little Qingzhuo during its Nirvana Continuation Tail phase.”
“Could this be…”
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
Suddenly, an image flashed through Zhu Minglang’s mind, that of Heavenly Shadow soaring high in the thunderstorm, shielding the rain with its body, allowing millions of White Moths at sea to escape – the White Phoenix!
Could this be the White Phoenix’s tail?
A look of shock appeared on Zhu Minglang’s face!!
How could the tail of a White Phoenix end up in such a place???
Zhu Minglang’s heart was in turmoil!
He recalled the scene of the White Phoenix flying far away, which seemed to be heading in the direction of Yellow Leaf City.
“Old Zhou, when this thing appeared, was there any unusual phenomenon?” Zhu Minglang asked.
“Yes, more than just a phenomenon, that day I woke up early in the morning to check the Yellow Leaf Herbal Field, and to my shock, I saw a vast expanse of white. It scared the daylights out of me, as we rarely have snow here, and Yellow Leaf Grass can’t withstand the ravages of frost and snow. But when the sun came out, all the snow floated into the air, and it terrified everyone in our city because it wasn’t snow – it was White Moths from the sea, they had settled on the Yellow Leaf Grass we were growing…” Old Official Zhou Qiu said.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Minglang’s eyes sparkled differently!
My God, it really is the tail of a White Phoenix!
The White Phoenix had escorted the White Moths all the way to Yellow Leaf City, although he didn’t know why one of its tail feathers had dropped, it was almost certain that this was the filament of the White Phoenix’s tail!!
No wonder the City Master who got hold of it died.
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
And afterwards, those who knew about it were also successively killed, framed!
The people of the Yan Clan were looking for this White Phoenix Tail Blossom.
Originally, everyone in Man City was capturing White Moths, just to collect the essence of heaven and earth from their tail filaments!
And now he was in possession of a White Phoenix Tail Blossom, that of a Holy Spirit with the highest bloodline of many ten thousand years…
This thing, was more than just hot to the touch!
Average people who tried to handle it would be burned to ashes.
If thrown away carelessly, the resulting conflict it could provoke might even sweep across the entire country!!
