Chapter Seventy-Four: The Transformation of the Phantom Phoenix (1st Update)

At this time, the Sima family was also discussing the quota for the Heavenly Demon Competition.

Sima Zhantian sat on the top of the hall, and behind him, there was a young man, who was his son, Sima Changkong.

"I gathered everyone together so late, and everyone must know what was going on. Tomorrow is the Heavenly Demon Competition, and my Sima family still has a quota that has not yet been determined, so it will be determined tonight. It's too late tomorrow morning to choose now. Sima Zhantian looked at the senior members of the Sima family sitting below and said.

As soon as the words fell, a high-level official stood up and said, "Family Master, my Sima Family's Xuandan Stage Nine Martial Artists are two hundred, don't you have any of these people who meet the criteria for entering the competition?"

"Hehe, what you said is right, there is indeed no shortage of martial artists in the Xuandan Stage Ninefold in the family, even the martial artists at the peak of the Xuandan Stage Ninefold have more than thirty people. However, I won't talk about the martial arts comprehension of these people, everyone understands it in their hearts. You must know that the Heavenly Demon Contest is the competition of the strongest of the Nine Peaks of the Xuandan Period in the past ten years in the Heavenly Demon Original. It's not just about cultivation, it's about martial arts, star weapons, and heart!" Sima Zhantian replied lightly.

"What the head of the family said is very true, but who should be asked to fill this place?"

Sima Zhantian: ······

If it weren't for the family meeting at this time, and there weren't so many high-level people present, Sima Zhantian swore that he would definitely scold this person. What else do I want to do with you?

Thirty minutes later, there was still no discussion. All the high-level nominations were vetoed by Sima Zhantian.

At this time, Sima Changkong said: "Since you can't choose anyone, let's join the battle with three people." lest you go up and disgrace my Sima family's face!"

"Young Master Sima, I'm afraid this is not appropriate, right? It's not cost-effective to waste a place in vain. I think it's better to pick one and go up. ”

"Okay, you say, who to choose?"

“······”

"Since you don't have a choice, listen to me. People are more expensive, not more expensive. It's enough to have me and two others!"

"What Young Master Sima said is very reasonable, just listen to Young Master Sima. ”

“······”

After everyone dispersed, Sima Changkong called Sima Zhantian.

"Father, the child has something to tell you. ”

"Sora, you say. ”

"Luo Dongtian is dead!"

"Huh?" Sima Zhantian looked at Sima Changkong in surprise.

"Two months ago, I, Luo Dongtian, and Bai Piaoran went to Dayun City to participate in the auction, and at the auction, a natural treasure appeared-Nine Winds Cold Ice Bed, this father knows?"

"I know. The battle over the Nine Winds Cold Ice Bed has also been a hot topic in Heavenly Demon City for a long time, and it is said that all three of you have been defeated at the hands of a mysterious old man. This mysterious old man is said to have killed the Bull King. When Sima Zhantian said about the Wild Bull King, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes. When he was not the head of the Sima family, he once followed the people of the Sima family to the Heavenly Demon Prairie to hunt the Wild Bull King, and in that battle, he was almost crushed to death by the Wild Bull King. Now that he thinks about it, he's still in shock!

"Yes, originally the Nine Winds Ice Bed was the only one in the end, but unexpectedly, the old man suddenly took out treasures such as the Wild Bull Demon Core and took them away. During the auctioneer's appraisal of the price, I went to the old man's VIP room and gave my father's name, but the old man was unmoved, as if he did not know his father. However, in front of the VIP room, I noticed that the old man's cultivation was only eightfold in the Xuandan period. So I thought about killing people and grabbing treasures after the auction ended, but I didn't expect that Luo Dongtian's straw bag was the same as I thought, and it was also the idea of killing people and grabbing treasures!"

"And then?"

"Later, the old man went to the Alchemist Guild on the second day, but because the Alchemist Guild was heavily defended, my people didn't follow up. When the old man came out, he entered the inn where he lived, and never came out again. Until noon, I couldn't wait, and I wondered if the old man had already left, so I planned to go out two kilometers away from Dayun City to observe, and maybe I could catch up with the old man. But halfway through, I saw Luo Dongtian's corpse - he was killed by a sword that cut his head directly away!"

"Can you kill Luo Dongtian?" are you sure it's the Xuandan Stage Eightfold?" asked Sima Zhantian with some disbelief.

"I'm sure, it's the eightfold of the Xuandan period. Sima Changkong replied firmly.

"Then what about after that?" Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Sima Zhantian continued to ask.

"After that, I went back to Dayun City and found Bai Piaoran. Originally, I just wanted to tell her the news of Luo Dongtian's death, but I never thought that her reaction was beyond my expectations. When I finished saying that the murderer of Luo Dongtian might be the old man who slapped away the cold ice bed of the Nine Winds, Bai Piaoran subconsciously said: It's him! This makes me wonder if Bai Piaoran knows the old man!"

"Are you sure Bai Piaoran is the reaction?"

"Hmm!"

"That's wrong, Bai Piaoran must know the old man. Even if you don't know him, you still have a certain degree of understanding of the old man. Otherwise, there would be no such reaction. Tomorrow's Heavenly Demon Competition, I will observe Bai Piaoran more. Sora, you're getting smarter. ”

"Hehe, thank you father for the compliment. However, there is one more point, I can't figure it out, Luo Dongtian is dead, why hasn't the Yanhu Divine Sect moved at all?! Could it be that Luo Dongtian's body hasn't been found yet?"

"It's possible. There are caravans coming and going between each city, not to mention Dayun City, maybe Luo Dongtian's corpse has already fed the caravan's mane horses. All in all, Luo Dongtian's death is worth celebrating for you, because you have one less strong opponent. ”

Sima Changkong suddenly said with disdain: "I have never regarded that straw bag as my opponent. My opponent is Luo Fengtian, as well as Bai Piaoran, Bai Lingfei!"

······

Ten miles west of Heavenly Demon City, there is a building complex here. The complex is extremely simple, all made of wood, but when it comes to the people who live here, it's not easy.

"Ran'er, how sure are you about the top spot in this Heavenly Demon Competition?" said an old woman with white hair and beard, with a straight face, to Bai Piaoran seriously.

"I have the Heavenly Spirit Sword now, at least eighty percent sure!" Bai Piaoran glanced at the long sword in his hand happily, and then raised his head and said to the old woman.

"Eighty percent, isn't it too much?" the old woman was a little incredulous.

"Grandma, eighty percent is more? This is a four-star weapon, a four-star weapon made from the horns of a brute bull!" Bai Piaoran said, holding up the long sword in his hand.

"Your Heavenly Spirit Sword is certainly a transcendent existence among the four-star weapons, but you tell me, I taught you the Phantom Phoenix Transformation, how many changes have you practiced?"

"The first ... Two changes!" Bai Piaoran lowered his head and said timidly.

"Ran'er, I told you a long time ago that the Phantom Phoenix Transformation is a powerful martial art, and if you learn it well, ·······"

"Grandma, I know, I will definitely try my best to comprehend the transformation of the Phantom Phoenix. Seeing that the old woman had a tendency to become more and more energetic the more she spoke, Bai Piaoran hurriedly "guaranteed".

"Hey, forget it, it's too late to say that. Anyway, if you win the top spot in the Heavenly Demon Competition, eighty percent of the certainty is far from it. It's good to have six achievements. ”

"Sixty percent?" Bai Piaoran thought she had misheard.

"That's right, don't think that your opponents are only Luo Fengtian of the Yanhu God Sect and Sima Changkong of the Sima Family!"

"Who else, Heavenly Demon Plain hasn't had any young geniuses recently!" Bai Piaoran asked. But in my heart, I thought of Ye Wuxian, I don't know if grandma is talking about him, hehe...

"You'll find out then. Okay, you go to sleep, have a good rest tonight, and tomorrow morning, we will set off for Heavenly Demon City. ”

"Hmm!" said to the old woman, and walked out of the house in vain.

Looking at the back of Bai Piaoran leaving, the old woman sighed secretly, according to the current development speed of the white phoenix, when will she be able to return to that big family?
