The walnut is obviously larger than a regular walnut, and it is entirely red.
Upon seeing the walnut, Scarlett Jennings was a bit taken aback.
This is the essence of that fla??
With a slightly evasive look in his eyes, Susan the Little Phoenix obediently said, "The Phoenix Fire in it was all swallowed by , and this is what’s left."
He didn’t know if this thing was its essence.
But he liked those flas...
Scarlett heard that its Phoenix Fire had been swallowed, she was certain this was definitely not a Phoenix, but exactly what it was, she couldn’t ascertain.
Just as she was about to reach out and take the walnut, her hand was stopped.
Samuel Chalrs pulled back the hand she extended, pressed it down, and then reached out himself, gently touching the walnut with his fingertips.
Scarlett saw that the instant Samuel’s fingertips touched the walnut with Golden Light, the walnut instantly shattered, and from inside suddenly erged a... little person!
It was described as a person, but it rely had a human-like appearance; the little person’s head was large and body small, obviously not proportionate to what a regular person would be.
Moreover, behind the little person grew a pair of red-black wings sowhat similar to a Phoenix’s.
As soon as the little person erged from the walnut, it imdiately flapped its wings and flew rapidly towards a certain place, Susan seed prepared for this and swiftly flew over, flapping his wings to directly send the little person flying away with a snap.
The little person fell to the ground and was just about to get up when Susan quickly approached and stepped on it to prevent its escape.
"Let, let go, I won’t dare again!"
The little person pleaded for rcy, speaking in an obviously adult male voice.
Scarlett approached to see clearly the little person under Susan’s paw and instinctively blurted out,
"Angel?"
The winged little person instinctively reminded her of Western angels, but as soon as she spoke, she quickly denied it.
No, angels aren’t this ugly.
The little person under Susan’s foot was not attractive, with a big head and wrinkled face, looking timid, yet his eyes revealed scheming.
"What are you?" Scarlett asked him.
The little person hesitated, and Susan imdiately stepped harder, releasing a Phoenix Fla, with a childish yet fierce voice,
"Speak quickly!"
The little person cried out in pain, then pleadingly began,
"I, I am Stanley, a descendant of Halcyon Drake."
"Halcyon Drake?"
Scarlett was unfamiliar with this na, but Samuel Chalrs knew sothing.
"Three-headed Halcyon Drake, born to serve the Langan Tree, yet exists to guard the Langan Tree."
Samuel Chalrs said,
"The Langan Tree was born specifically for the Phoenix, and legend has it that the three-headed person has been waiting for the Phoenix their whole life."
As Stanley heard them ntion the legend of three-headed people, a hint of gloom flashed in his eyes, knowing he couldn’t hide it, he stopped struggling.
As Samuel Chalrs said, three-headed people spend their lives waiting for the Phoenix.
They originally guarded the Langan Tree waiting for the Phoenix, but over ti, they slowly evolved into a presence that protects the Phoenix.
Due to the rarity of the Phoenix, in order to ensure the Phoenix’s smooth growth, every Phoenix born has a three-headed person to protect it, and over ti, three-headed people beca the Phoenix’s accompanying beings.
It’s called accompanying, but in fact, it’s nothing more than servants growing up with the Phoenix.
Stanley was also an accompanying being, but he differed from other three-headed beings who only wanted to guard the Phoenix, he didn’t want to serve the Phoenix.
He couldn’t understand why he was born just to live protecting the Phoenix.
Why should the Phoenix be born noble?
He was unwilling but couldn’t convince the other two heads, so one day, after a certain opportunity, he separated from the original two heads and gained a new body.
And these wings, they grew bit by bit after he absorbed the Phoenix Power.
Three-headed beings, as accompanying entities to the Phoenix, easily absorbed the Phoenix’s aura, and also could absorb the Phoenix’s power for their own use.
Although he separated from the Phoenix and beca a person alone, Stanley didn’t escape from the Phoenix completely, instead, he killed the remaining two heads, and took the Phoenix away alone.
He managed to control the Phoenix when it was weak and kept absorbing the power belonging to the Phoenix, aiming to one day replace the Phoenix.
Because he initially was the Phoenix’s accompanying being, the Phoenix Clan had never sensed anything amiss.
And to replace the Phoenix, besides having the Phoenix’s power, he also needed the Phoenix’s faith.
Edith Phoenix was the believer chosen by him.
As soon as Edith Phoenix, the Heaven’s Chosen Daughter chosen by him, ascended the throne, everyone believed she housed the real Phoenix, and he absorbed the faith while absorbing all the Phoenix’s power, at that ti, he could replace that entity and beco the true Phoenix.
And his plan was almost successful.
If it wasn’t for Lily Phoenix... If it wasn’t for her bringing in another Phoenix...
Actually, this Phoenix only had Divine Soul and no essence.
But even so, before the real Phoenix, the bit of power he stole was insignificant.
Moreover, what scared him more was that the aura of this Phoenix Divine Soul was almost identical to that of the Phoenix he was accompanying.
He couldn’t understand, just as he couldn’t understand why Lily Phoenix could summon the Phoenix Divine Soul for her use.
Stanley rambled on, looking at Scarlett Jennings with obvious resentnt in his eyes.
Susan noticed and stepped harder on his head,
"You’re not allowed to look at Sister like that!"
Stanley was full of sha and anger, but Scarlett and Samuel Chalrs finally learned the general truth from his narrative.
Perhaps it was a pull from fate, this fake Phoenix chose Edith Phoenix, the fake heiress; if the fake heiress finally beca Queen, then this fake Phoenix could naturally beco the true Phoenix.
Unfortunately, fake is fake in the end.
When Scarlett Jennings uncovered Edith Phoenix’s identity, his failure was already destined.
But at present, Scarlett Jennings was not interested in mocking his failure, she was more concerned about,
"Where’s the real Phoenix?"
According to his statent, he had been absorbing the Phoenix’s power, so the real Phoenix might still be there.
Upon hearing Scarlett Jennings’s inquiry, Stanley’s eyes shifted but he said,
"Lost! That Phoenix was absorbed completely by , then I discarded it! It’s probably long dead!"
Scarlett Jennings did not believe him and rely commanded him, "Speak the truth."
Stanley strained his neck, "Dead ans dead, there’s nothing I can do if you don’t believe !"
Scarlett decided not to waste words with him and directly signaled Susan,
"Cut off one of his wings."
Susan listened obediently, stepping on the little person, lowered his head, and with a bite, tore off half of the wing.
The wing broke off brutally, and Stanley imdiately scread in agony.
Yet seen was that the wing bitten off by Susan instantly transford into primordial Phoenix Fire upon leaving Stanley’s body.
Susan’s eyes lit up, imdiately inhaling all the fire into his belly.
The mini Phoenix visibly expanded significantly from absorbing the Phoenix Power.
Susan clearly felt his Divine Soul’s power had also enhanced sowhat.
The sa feeling had occurred when he had absorbed the Phoenix Fire emitted from Stanley; this ti, the feeling was even more pronounced.
Susan couldn’t help but lower his head to look at Stanley’s other wing, eyes blazing with desire.
Want to eat!
