Chapter 1449: Chapter 1476: It was voluntary! Chapter 1449: Chapter 1476: It was voluntary! “What are you trying to do?”

Yang Zhen’s face showed a puzzled expression as he asked.

Hearing Yang Zhen’s words, Emperor Aotian’s face revealed a hint of hesitation as he spoke, “Yang Zhen, Golden Eagle once did something that defied fate. How about letting Feng Yu come out? Perhaps this old fellow Golden Eagle can cure her, and then there would be no need for you to take the risk.”

“What?”

Hearing this, the mischievous cat’s eyes widened, and it looked at Golden Eagle Emperor and asked, “You want to defy fate?”

A displeased expression crossed the face of Golden Eagle Emperor as he glared at Yang Zhen and said, “It’s certainly better than entrusting the life of Phoenix Feather to this youngster.”

Hearing this, the people of Tri-Floral Sanctuary were all displeased.

Phoenix Feather Empress was one of the Tri-Floral Sanctuary’s people; Yang Zhen had ventured into the Demon-Devil Wasteland to save Tri-Floral Sanctuary and brought back the Ancient Origin Water.

The hardships he faced are left unsaid because, after all, no one else could truly empathize. However, just the name of the Demon-Devil Wasteland evoked enough terror.

Now, Lord Yang had been preparing for so long, and as soon as Sao Saint broke through his seclusion, Lord Yang would be able to start saving Phoenix Feather. And here was Golden Eagle Emperor saying that he didn’t trust her life with Lord Yang?

What kind of reasoning was that?

Many people around, in their indignation, displayed schadenfreude.

This Golden Eagle Emperor was about to face bad luck. Given Lord Yang’s character, if he didn’t trick him into complete confusion, then he wouldn’t be Lord Yang.

The mischievous cat’s eyes were whirling around, as if looking for something valuable on Golden Eagle Emperor.

This gaze made everyone around feel a chill.

One Lord Yang was already frightening enough, but with the addition of a mischievous cat, poor Golden Eagle Emperor would probably find misery at his grandmother’s house.

Just as everyone’s gaze fell on Yang Zhen, curious to see how he would erupt, Yang Zhen suddenly walked backward, saying as he went, “Elder, follow me!”

Hearing this, everyone was startled.

This…

Could it be a mistake?

Lord Yang was actually taking Golden Eagle Emperor to see Phoenix Feather Empress?

Were all his days of preparation being willingly handed over just like that?

Looking at Golden Eagle Emperor’s face, it truly displayed an irritating demeanor.

Although Golden Eagle Emperor’s intention was also to rescue Phoenix Feather Empress out of kindness, the fact that Golden Eagle Emperor dared to look down on Lord Yang was intolerable to them.

Especially the mischievous cat. Hearing Yang Zhen’s words, watching Yang Zhen turn around and leave, the cat opened its mouth but was surprisingly unable to speak.

It was only when Golden Eagle Emperor huffed coldly and followed Yang Zhen back that the mischievous cat let out a strange yell and rushed forward.

“Wait, kid, do you actually trust that Golden Eagle Emperor can save Phoenix Feather Empress?”

The cat’s face was full of peculiar expressions, and with a sneer, it said, “No offense to him, but that old man’s success back in the day was nothing more than a coincidence. To ask him to do it again is absolutely impossible, plus…”

Here, the cat glanced at a somewhat angry Golden Eagle Emperor and continued, “What are you glaring at me for? Back then, you only managed to save the life of a mortal, right? Now it’s Phoenix Feather Empress we’re talking about, an Emperor Realm Expert! Do you think defying fate is a joke?”

Golden Eagle Emperor’s face grew dark as he glared at the mischievous cat and said, “Say that one more time?”

The mischievous cat’s eyes grew even wider, its neck stiffened as it retorted, “So what if I say it again, are we not allowed to speak now?”

At this moment, Yang Zhen glanced at the mischievous cat and shouted, “Shut up, will you?”

The cat became frantic, climbing onto Yang Zhen’s shoulder and after looking at him for a long time, finally said, “Kid, you’ve changed. Now, with thirty to fifty thousand practitioners in the Tri-Floral Sanctuary, you’re passing up the opportunity to show off in such a big scene?”

Hearing what the cheeky cat said, Yang Zhen grinned and slapped the cat on the head, “You don’t know jack, is this really the time to show off?”

The cheeky cat was startled and asked, “If it’s not the time to show off, then when is?”

Yang Zhen looked deeply at the Golden Eagle Emperor, his face revealing a bitter expression, “You can show off whenever, the Sao Saint in this lifetime is either showing off or on the way to showing off, but not now. The Phoenix Feather Empress is almost at her limit. If Senior Golden Eagle can fight against fate and save the Phoenix Feather Empress’s life, that’s more important than anything!”

Upon hearing this, the Golden Eagle Emperor snorted lightly, and somewhat unexpectedly looked at Yang Zhen, “It seems you little brat have some brains after all; otherwise, I wouldn’t let you off easily.”

Yang Zhen shook his head and sighed, “It’s mainly because I’m not confident myself.”

“You’re not confident?”

The cheeky cat let out a strange cry, hopping from Yang Zhen’s left shoulder to his right, “How confident are you?”

Everyone’s gaze instantly fell on Yang Zhen.

After pondering for a moment, under everyone’s watchful eyes, he said somewhat heavily, “Only eighty percent confident!”

The Golden Eagle Emperor staggered and nearly collapsed on the ground.

The cheeky cat also staggered, grabbing onto Yang Zhen’s hair and hanging on him, “Damn, you say now’s not the time to show off, but if your words could be trusted, I might as well fly to the sky.”

The Golden Eagle Emperor snorted coldly, turned his head away, indicating his unwillingness to speak with a show-off.

Yang Zhen, none too pleased, lifted the cheeky cat in front of him and placed it on his shoulder, “I told you, you know jack, I can’t just gamble with these twenty percent chances of failure!”

That’s a life at stake.

Moreover, it’s someone the Sao Saint really cares about.

Without a hundred percent certainty, letting the Golden Eagle Emperor take the rescue, what’s wrong with that?

Of course, the premise is that the Golden Eagle Emperor is fully confident, if he also has less than eighty percent, Yang Zhen wouldn’t care if he was an emperor or not, he’d kick him out of the Tri-Floral Sanctuary one kick at a time, send him back where he came from.

Before long, everyone arrived at the Emperor Yard at the back of the mountain.

When Yang Zhen opened the door of an ordinary room, everyone was shocked.

Standing by the door was a stooping old man with somewhat muddled eyes, looking at everyone and slowly setting his gaze on Yang Zhen. He managed a strained smile, “Kid, are you ready?”

Yang Zhen shook his head, “This time… let the senior save you!”

Saying that, Yang Zhen stepped back, allowing the Golden Eagle Emperor to come forward.

The Golden Eagle Emperor stared blankly at the Phoenix Feather Empress, his face full of disbelief.

The Phoenix Feather Empress was startled as well and after a long look, she finally exclaimed, “Your Eminence?”

This “Your Eminence” made even a great emperor’s hands tremble, supporting the Phoenix Feather Empress’s shoulders, his lips quivering as he asked, “How can this be, how can this be, what is this…”

At that point, the Golden Eagle Emperor’s face went pale, and he cried out in alarm, “Heavenly Yin Evil Soul?”

The Phoenix Feather Empress nodded, “Indeed, the Heavenly Yin Evil Soul!”

“No, impossible, you don’t have that kind of power’s aura, this can’t be, could it be…”

The Golden Eagle Emperor’s face darkened, and he stared ominously at Yang Zhen and the others, his voice grave and deliberate, “Who was it?”

The Phoenix Feather Empress hastily said, “Your Eminence, it’s not Yang Zhen’s doing, it was my own choice.”

Boom–!

The Golden Eagle Emperor’s aura exploded suddenly, almost blowing Yang Zhen away.
