C2178 Helplessly Grandmaster Zong
"We've stopped it!" The two of them shouted in joy.
At the same time, they activated the cold symbol parchment in their hands.
However, in the next moment, their expressions greatly changed because the Flamewing Bird didn't care about their ice-cold aura and directly charged towards them.
When they arrived in front of them, a powerful wave of heat directly enveloped them, making it hard for them to breathe. Before they could even regain their senses, flames had already started burning their bodies.
AHH!" In the midst of these miserable shrieks, they directly fell to the ground.
This was too terrifying! Seeing how powerful the Flamewing Bird was, the few people who were originally close to it subconsciously stopped their steps. They didn't want the two people from before to be injured like this by the Flowing Winged Bird's flames.
"Don't be afraid, give chase!" Grandmaster Zong quickly shouted.
With these shouts, he was the first to rush towards the Flaming Winged Bird. The other two elders that could activate the rank 6 Ice Talisman Paper also followed closely behind him.
The Flaming Winged Bird clearly didn't want to get entangled with them, so it immediately turned around and fled. Grandmaster Zong and the others naturally gave chase.
However, the Flaming Winged Bird's speed was surprisingly fast, and it left them without a trace before long.
Grandmaster Zong could only turn around and look for Wang Tongtian. He said to Wang Tongtian, "Wang Tongtian, quickly let your black wolf follow along!"
Wang Tongtian, who had seen the power of the Winged Bird, had an extremely ugly expression on his face. However, when faced with such a powerful Master Zong, how could he dare say no?
"Yes sir!" He could only agree and let the black wolf catch up with him.
Right now, the black wolf was at the front while Grandmaster Zong and the rest followed behind.
This time, he didn't dare to be as careless as before. Instead, he promised to have at least four people gathered together. Otherwise, if they were to encounter the Flaming Winged Bird later, there would definitely be more casualties.
Grandmaster Zong could already see that if there were two people who could activate the rank 5 Ice Talisman Paper against the Winged Bird, they would have no chance of winning at all. They could only be burned like those two just now.
And if it was four or more people fighting against each other, the ice-cold aura they emitted would at least ensure that they wouldn't be harmed by the Inferno Bird's flames.
This way, he could buy time for the others to surround and attack the Flaming Winged Bird.
This time around, the black wolf could actually closely follow behind the Flamewing Bird. It wasn't only the Flamewing Bird that was deliberately maintaining a distance, but also something else.
But Grandmaster Zong didn't care about all that. Right now, he only had one thought in his mind, and that was to capture this Flaming Winged Bird.
After chasing for a while, they reached a pile of rubble.
At this point, the black wolf stopped in its tracks and howled at a stone pillar in front of it.
"That Flaming Winged Bird is right behind that stone pillar. Everyone, surround it. Make sure to keep at least four people together!" Grandmaster Zong immediately said.
Immediately, everyone surrounded him.
They quickly surrounded the stone mountain, but what puzzled them was that there weren't any Flaming Winged Birds.
"This is bad!" Wang Tongtian couldn't help but cry out.
Just as he shouted, a muffled sound suddenly came from the direction they came from. They subconsciously looked in that direction.
The Flamewing Bird actually broke through the surface of the ground and charged straight at the black wolf.
The black wolf was originally a fierce beast, but facing the Flamewing Bird, it was so scared that it fell onto the ground and began to whimper.
The Flaming Winged Bird didn't give it any chance and directly pounced towards it. When the Flaming Winged Bird flew past, the black wolf's body was already engulfed in raging flames.
The black wolf naturally began to flee, especially towards Wang Tongtian's direction.
Only, before it could reach Wang Tongtian, it had already fallen to the ground.
Wang Tongtian immediately rushed to the front of the black wolf. However, when he looked at the black wolf in front of him, he felt a sense of powerlessness. This was because he had no way of surviving.
Wang Tongtian's hopes were in vain. The reason he had his current achievements was all because of this black wolf. Now that the black wolf was dead, what could he rely on in the future? Perhaps in front of the Emperor, Grandmaster Zong and the others, his position would immediately decline, and he would be no different from an ordinary expert.
Master Zong did not have the time to pay attention to Black Wolf and Wang Tongtian. He immediately brought his men to chase after them, but the Flaming Winged Bird did not give them any chance. After chasing for a while, they could not see the Flaming Winged Bird's shadow, and in the end could only helplessly return.
As soon as he returned to Wang Tongtian's place, looking at the corpse of the black wolf, Master Zong couldn't help but frown.
The reason they were able to catch the Flamewing Bird was entirely because of the Black Wolf. Now that the Black Wolf was dead, what could they use to chase the Flamewing Bird? This way, they wouldn't be able to find the source of the Flaming Winged Bird's appearance.
Dammit, I was fooled by the Flamewing Bird just now! Grandmaster Zong resented in his heart.
"Wang Tongtian, is there any black wolf that can chase us like this?" Grandmaster Zong then looked at Wang Tongtian and said.
"No more." Wang Tongtian said weakly.
"No, then let's go back!" Grandmaster Zong's expression turned ugly.
Since it had already happened, he could only accept reality.
The group of people quickly returned to the Royal Capital, and as soon as they returned, they went to meet the Emperor.
"Grandmaster Zong, is there no result yet?" Seeing Grandmaster Zong's dejected look, the emperor couldn't help but frown.
"Your Majesty, your subjects have disappointed your hopes. They were unable to catch the Flamewing Bird." Master Zong said helplessly.
"If you can't catch up, keep chasing. There will be a chance to catch up sooner or later!" The Emperor consoled him.
"Your Majesty, that black wolf has already been killed by that Flamewing Bird. In the future, there's no way for it to continue pursuing us like it did before." Master Zong sighed.
"What?" That Black Wolf was killed? " The emperor couldn't help but be shocked. He placed his hopes on the black wolf, but who would have thought that it would actually be killed.
"Who killed him?" He could not help but ask.
"It was killed by the Flamewing Bird. The Flamewing Bird actually used a strategy of ambushing the east and attacking the west, taking advantage of our inattention to kill Black and Blue." Grandmaster Zong said.
"The Flamewing Bird is actually this smart?" The emperor was astonished once again.
"I only hope there's one Flaming Winged Bird like that. If there are many of them, then it'll be even more troublesome." Grandmaster Zong said.
"Doesn't that mean that I won't be able to continue following him in the future ??" "What about Wang Tongtian? Does he even have a black wolf like that?" the Emperor asked.
"I've asked, he doesn't have a black wolf like this anymore." Grandmaster Zong shook his head.
"That's really hard to deal with." The Emperor's expression became even uglier.
"Your Majesty, do you want me to pass down the order to gather all of the strange people in this country and see who has the ability to track them?" After which, Grandmaster Zong said.
"That's the only way." The Emperor said.
After that, he did as Grandmaster Zong commanded.
No one else had the ability to do so, but the emperor could only do so now.
In the blink of an eye, a few days had passed and the entire Ice Peak Empire knew of the Emperor's intentions. However, no one came to the Imperial City to say that they possessed such abilities.
In this period of time, the Flaming Winged Bird suddenly became even more savage. In just a few days, another few thousand citizens were brutally killed by the Flaming Winged Bird.
The Emperor had no choice but to send Grandmaster Zong and the others to chase down and kill these Flamewing Birds. Unfortunately, these Flamewing Birds were too fast, so even killing a few of them wouldn't be of much use.
The most important thing was, even if they were killed, the amount of Flamewing Birds that would appear afterwards would be the same.
This matter had caused the Emperor to be unable to sleep well for the past few days. It was just that he had no other methods to deal with it.
Lin Long and the others were naturally aware of Ice Peak Nation's situation.
On this day, Qian Jiayi, who was standing beside Lin Long, said, "Young Master, why don't we make peace with His Majesty? Then, you can use the strength that you're following to help Grandmaster Zong and the rest track that Flamewing Bird."
As a member of the Ice Peak Country, Qian Jiayi was clearly a citizen of the Ice Peak Country. She could not bear to see a person being slaughtered by the Flaming Winged Bird.
Before Lin Long could say anything, Miao Feng, who was on the other side, said, "Miss Qian, this is out of the question. If Grandmaster Zong and the rest of the people suddenly attack Young Master during the process, Young Master would not be a match for them even if Young Master has three heads and six arms."
"Yes, Miao Feng is right. We can help, but the problem is that the risk is too great. If we're not careful, Young Master will become their prisoner." Dong Luo also said.
"Of course." Qian Jiayi also said after hearing what the two said.
Lin Long said at this time, "Let's wait and see."
Lin Long obviously wanted to deal with the Flaming Winged Bird as well, but he didn't want to risk his life.
It was mainly because Grandmaster Zong and the others who could activate the rank 6 Ice Talisman paper were too strong.
? ?.
Another two days passed. In these two days, the number of Flaming Winged Birds had doubled. This made Grandmaster Zong and the others run for their lives.
Knowing that this would not do, the Emperor gathered all the experts to discuss the countermeasures.
"My dear sirs, think about it again and see what methods are available to deal with these Flamewing Birds." The Emperor said to the crowd.
He did not know how many times he had said those words in the past few days, but no one had been able to give him a satisfactory answer.
The scene became silent for a moment. Everyone looked at each other.
After a short moment, one of them suddenly stood up.
"En, Eunuch Meng, do you have an idea?" Thinking that Eunuch Meng had an idea, the emperor couldn't help but smile.
Your Majesty, this old servant didn't have any idea. However, this old servant thought that these Winged Birds came from the Imperial City Mystic Realm. As long as we entered it, we would be able to find the reason to avoid this disaster. Eunuch Meng said.
"Yes, Your Majesty. It's very likely that he came from the secret realm."
Many people immediately agreed.
There were people who had suggested it before, but the emperor had rejected them all. That was why no one brought it up these days. They knew that that was why Eunuch Meng was bringing it up again.
Frowning, the Emperor finally sighed and said, "Okay, then we will open the secret realm and enter it to see what is going on."
Although this was a great risk, the Emperor couldn't care less.
