The elders exited the lobby of Peace Manor, standing by the door. One of them suddenly said, "The Mountain Range of Death is shrouded in a malicious aura that makes anyone near it turn back after just a glance... Sh*t, I think I've gone nuts, I was actually persuaded by her words."

The other elders didn't express any mockery or disdain at his words, but they turned to each other, reading the shock in each other's eyes. There was also a hint of 'as expected' in their faces.

Coming back to it, they could scarcely believe it themselves. Forget about how such an old group of people being shocked by Lisa, the problem was that they had even believed an unreasonable thing that the other had said. Not only did they believe, they also felt that what she said had been right.

They were still in a dazed state and disbelief, when a faint, blue flame suddenly appeared in front of them.

The scorching heat in the air hit their faces, and they had a distance between them before this, and had not been able to feel the true terror of the flame. Now the flame was right in front of them, and they could feel the energy surging within the flames, which was frightening. They didn't doubt that the ferocious energy within these flames would be able to make them disappear without a trace!

But these... These were blue flames!

Run...

They didn't have time to shield themselves against the fire!

Where would they have time to escape then?!

The surrounding air suddenly became cold at this moment!

A white hand reached out suddenly, catching the faint, blue flames bare handed. The blue contrasted against the white, and the faint blue fire still contained the terrifying energy that could be felt by all of them. This was the power of heaven and earth, one that the Vermillion Bird was born with, the unique energy of the Phoenix Tribe!

However, the pair of hands had grabbed those flames barehanded, and everyone watching this scene was dumbfounded. Even the people from the Peace Squad had stopped their fight, turning to look at what was happening.

The hand holding the flames were extremely white, comparable to a fresh layer of snow. The blue flames trembled in the hands for a moment, before dying out with a 'squeak'.

It was fine and all to extinguish it, but the key point was that no one had felt any fluctuation of the person's chi at all.

That was the terrifying part!

Everyone present was stunned, their gaze slowly travelling up the hands of the person, finding a tall, quiet and handsome figure. He lowered his eyes slightly to look at the dying flame, the light illuminating his elegant, defined features of his face. Under the reflection of the light, a burst of chill came forth.

"Be careful." Once the fire had been extinguished, he raised his head to look at Xixi, who was also stunned.

His voice was cold as ever, but Xixi could feel that something was off about him.

If it was before, the man would have looked at him with a hint of contempt in those eyes, and his voice would be slightly taunting. Unlike now, where his eyes were calmed, and at first glance, he resembled an ice mountain, making people feel like he was unfathomable.

Xixi flapped his wings a little, wondering if it had a masochistic streak in itself if it was practically asking to be abused. It then turned to the elders without a hint of remorse and apologized. "Sorry, sorry. I didn't mean to scare you, I couldn't stop it in time!"

"It's fine." The elders had also recollected themselves, seeing closely that it was Jungkook. Their hearts that had leapt up to their throats had also returned to their rightful place.
