Chapter 925: Chapter 925: Divine Phoenix Mirage Chapter 925: Chapter 925: Divine Phoenix Mirage “I'm back,” came a slightly hoarse voice from beneath the conical hat, filled with a mix of emotions that were indescribably complex.
Behind this man in the conical hat stood another figure, a seductive woman in a black dress with a charming face. Merely standing there, doing nothing, she was a delight to the eyes.
“Gu Hanshan, having returned to the Lower Three Kingdoms, I assume you must be feeling quite good,” the woman in the black dress said with a voice laced with seduction, easily unsettling any ordinary man who heard it.
The man under the conical hat was none other than Gu Hanshan, who had been entangled with Fang Lin for a long time.
“You didn't need to come with me,” Gu Hanshan said coldly without even glancing at the beauty behind him.
The woman in the black dress revealed a lazy, sly smile, “The Fire King asked me to follow you, so wherever you go, I will go. And I will obey your orders, doing whatever you ask of me.”
As she spoke these words, the expression on the woman's face was particularly captivating, complemented by her voice that was seductive to the core, enticing enough to lure many men of this world.
Gu Hanshan remained unmoved, even a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes, “Then if I ask you to leave, will you go?”
The woman in the black dress chuckled, “Unless the Fire King calls me back, I will not leave. Apart from that, I can fulfill all your wishes.”
With that, the woman in the black dress wrapped her arms around Gu Hanshan's body from behind, pressing her ample bosom firmly against his back as she gently rubbed against him.
Her hands wandered over Gu Hanshan's chest, seemingly intent on provoking him.
“Stay away from me,” Gu Hanshan said indifferently, as if he completely ignored the enchantress behind him, treating her with the same disdain as one would a venomous snake.
Indeed, comparing this woman in the black dress to a venomous snake seemed apt.
“Hehe, could it be that your body has changed so much that you've lost a man's response?” The woman in the black dress did not let go, her hands slowly roaming, daringly moving towards Gu Hanshan's lower body.
With a light grasp, just as the woman's hand touched Gu Hanshan's lower body, he let out a cold snort, a chilling aura emanated, repelling the woman in the black dress.
The woman's breath became erratic, and a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes, but then she smiled again, “Worthy of being valued by the Fire King, indeed you are extraordinary.”
“If you touch me again, I will chop off your hands,” Gu Hanshan stated, his tone detached but laced with a thread of killing intent.
The woman's expression tightened slightly, no longer daring to overstep.
Gu Hanshan and the woman in the black dress stood on the peak for a long time until suddenly, a flock of Demon Beasts flew overhead, noticing the two on the mountain. They screeched and dive-bombed towards them, aiming to attack Gu Hanshan and his companion.
Gu Hanshan made no move, not even sparing those Demon Beasts a glance, while the woman in the black dress stirred her Inner Strength, sending out waves of energy that instantly killed these lower-realm beasts.
“Gu Hanshan, I'd like to remind you once again, even though you are highly regarded by the Fire King, this is your last chance. If Fang Lin does not die, you will,” the woman in the black dress said, her voice tinged with complexity as she looked at Gu Hanshan's back.
“I know,” replied Gu Hanshan, and with a leap, he left the mountain peak.
The woman in the black dress hesitated not, following closely behind Gu Hanshan as they both plunged into the expanse of the mountainous lands.
At the same time, a group of experts from Alchemy Tao noble families also entered the area from another location, all searching for the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch.
“Ling Ziwen, are you sure the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch is really in this forsaken place? Could the information be wrong?” among a group of dozens from the Alchemy Tao noble families, one person asked the man leading the way.
That man was of tall and thin stature, wearing the robe of a Pill Refiner, appearing to be not young, possibly in his thirties.
This Ling Ziwen, naturally a Pill Refiner from the Ling Family, was leading a group of individuals associated with the Ling Family and other Alchemy Tao families to this place in search of the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch.
Of course, if the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch were found, it naturally belonged to the Ling Family, and those who had accompanied them would also receive many benefits from the Ling Family.
“Besides us, many from the Upper Three Countries have also arrived. The news can't be fake, but I just fear someone may beat us to the punch. If those people from the Upper Three Countries get it, it won't be easy to deal with,” Ling Ziwen said, looking somewhat worried.
“If those people from the Upper Three Countries indeed get it, then there's nothing we can do.”
“Indeed, we are not the Long Family, with the confidence to contend with the power of the Upper Three Countries.”
“But those fellows, their skills in searching for medicines and treasures are definitely not as good as ours, Pill Refiners.”
“That's true, in terms of searching for medicines, we do have some advantages.”
The group discussed among themselves, some optimistic about the search for the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch, others not holding much hope.
“Hm? Why are there so many Demon Beasts? They seem to have gone mad?” Soon, Ling Ziwen and his party encountered a large number of Demon Beasts. Although most were not high in rank, the number was not small.

Fang Lin continued to flee, seeing that many Demon Beasts were still chasing him and the aura of the Silver Fox constantly locked onto him.
Fang Lin gritted his teeth secretly, wanting to enter the Supreme Saint Hall to hide.
Just then, a few miles ahead, a loud and startling phoenix cry echoed through the sky.
This cry of the phoenix shook the heavens and earth, alarming the wilderness, as if, in an instant, the entire sky had brightened.
Following that, a golden Divine Phoenix Mirage soared into the sky, gold illuminating the earth and rendering the firmament with a brilliant golden light.
All the Demon Beasts active in the mountains, whether or not they were in the midst of battle, immediately lay prostrate on the ground, shivering and feeling fear from the depths of their bloodlines.
Even the Silver Fox's eyes flashed with a hint of fear, but it then let out an even more piercing howl, as if challenging the golden Divine Phoenix Mirage.
“Such a phenomenon! It's the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch!”
“It has finally appeared!”
“The Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch has emerged! Hurry to that place!”
“This item is mine! No one else can have it!”
“Hurry up! If you're late, it'll be gone!”
****
In an instant, forces converged as everyone rushed toward the place where the Divine Phoenix Mirage appeared, not wishing to fall behind in their efforts to seize the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch.
And at that moment, the person closest to the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch was undoubtedly Fang Lin.
As the Divine Phoenix Mirage appeared, his heart pounded, ready to obtain the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch at all costs, but suddenly, Fang Lin sensed something amiss.
The golden Divine Phoenix Mirage, in a vague moment, emitted a hint of black light.
“Not good! That's not the Phoenix Spirit Jade Branch!” Fang Lin's heart shook, his expression turning extremely ugly.
