Chapter 985: Chapter 985: Prehistoric Overlord (Part 13)
Although the old man had been dethroned, these were still his clansn, and now they all lay dead here.
He was clearly outside, yet he heard nothing at all…
How is this possible?!
The old man suddenly thought of sothing and swiftly moved to the back.
Chuzheng motioned for Tun Xiang to follow.
The old man reached the cave, the stone door wide open, with a person standing inside.
Clad in black as dark as ink, a dead Teng Snake lay at his feet, their blood staining the entire cave.
“Tu Yan.”
Chuzheng called out.
Tu Yan turned around, his expression calm, revealing neither joy nor anger. His eyes, as dark as ink, remained ever gloomy, as if suppressing endless darkness.
“Tu Yan!” The old man’s gaze sharpened, like a knife falling on Tu Yan: “Why did you slaughter my clansn?”
Tu Yan frowned, his gaze falling on Chuzheng: “It wasn’t .”
He was explaining it to Chuzheng.
After explaining, Tu Yan shifted his gaze away; why should he explain his actions to her?
Tu Yan’s body flickered and disappeared into the cave.
The old man’s form also flickered, and Chuzheng hastily turned and left; Tu Yan and the old man’s figures appeared in the mountains, and she imdiately pursued them.
“Tu Yan, what offense did the Teng Snake Clan ever do to you, for you to slaughter us all!”
The old man asked with angry bitterness, breaking through the clouds.
No one responded to him.
In the sky above, there were only two silhouettes, continuously eting and parting in the air, with a dull sound resonating between heaven and earth.
“Great King, do you think… Tu Yan did all this?”
“No.”
“King?” Tun Xiang looked at her in shock: “How can you be so certain?”
Chuzheng didn’t answer.
She twisted her wrist, and the Yin Xian fell to the ground, spreading out from her in all directions.
The sound in the air suddenly ceased.
Chuzheng looked up, seeing the old man left in the void while Tu Yan was nowhere to be found.
The old man, with eyes bloodshot, roared in fury.
“If you’ve got guts, Tu Yan, don’t hide!”
“Tu Yan, co out for !”
“Tu Yan—”
The old man’s voice echoed through the mountains, reverberating.
“Great King, where are you going? Wait for …”
Tun Xiang suddenly noticed Chuzheng flying out and hurriedly followed.

Not far from Panlong Cliff, in a cave, Yuan Ning lay inside, now awakening.
Yuan Ning clutched his chest and sat up, looking out.
A beast guarded outside.
How long had he been unconscious?
Bam—
Before Yuan Ning could figure it out, the beast outside suddenly crashed in and turned to ashes instantly.
Yuan Ning’s pupils constricted as he looked outside the cave.
The night light outlined a shadow at the entrance of the cave, shaped like a bird.
The shadow gradually stepped in, followed by a silvery stream of light.
“Who are you?!”
Yuan Ning watched the shadow warily.
The shadow did not respond but lunged at him instead. Yuan Ning was shocked and instinctively dodged to the side. However, his strength was limited, and he directly fell to the ground, rolling to a corner of the cave.
Yuan Ning’s heart pounded.
He quickly got up and ran outside the cave.
However, before he could take two steps, he was pinned against the wall by a claw.
He could see the shadow in front of him clearly.
“What… do you want?”
“Nothing.” A girl’s crisp voice sounded.
“What grudge do I have with you?” Yuan Ning tried to stay calm.
The sharp claw tapped on Yuan Ning’s shoulder: “Is my item comfortable to use?”
“What item?” Yuan Ning didn’t know what Chuzheng was talking about; he didn’t recognize her at all.
“Unfortunately, I can’t finish you off right now.”
Chuzheng grabbed him and dragged him out of the cave, directly flying into the air.
The aura of the Phoenix Stone on Yuan Ning was even stronger, it was certainly on him.
The aura of the Phoenix Essence Blood was quite faint… But the Phoenix Essence Blood was clearly in his body before, maybe because he absorbed it…
Need to think of a way to extract it.

Yao Rao led Ting Cao into the cave, finding it empty, with no one around.
“Sister Yao Rao, Brother Yuan Ning is gone.” Ting Cao checked all around.
Not only was Yuan Ning gone, but also the beasts left to protect him were absent.
Yao Rao’s face turned ashen: “Who could have done this!”
“Was it that one…” Ting Cao recalled their encounter with Tu Yan at Panlong Cliff.
“How could he know Yuan Ning was here, it couldn’t be him.” Yao Rao forced herself to calm down.
“Could Brother Yuan Ning have left on his own?” Ting Cao suggested: “If others discovered him, there would surely be bodies here.”
Ting Cao’s words made Yao Rao think it made so sense.
Yao Rao imdiately walked out of the cave: “Let’s split up and look.”
“Alright.”

Three days later.
In the wilderness, Tun Xiang was carrying a person, walking slowly forward.
Chuzheng landed behind him.
Tun Xiang stopped to catch his breath: “Great King, where are we headed?”
“To the market.” To splurge.
Tun Xiang replied with an ‘oh’ and continued to walk forward. Beyond this wilderness, there was a market in the valley ahead.
“Heard Tu Yan wiped out the Teng Snake Clan.”
“Really? What’s he eradicating the Teng Snake Clan for, just for fun?”
“Who knows, doesn’t he kill beasts every day.”
“True, but did the Teng Snake Clan really get exterminated just like that?”
“I hope we never run into him…”
“Yeah, definitely.”
Outside the market, a few beasts stood together discussing the news of the Teng Snake Clan’s annihilation.
News within the Prehistoric Era wasn’t blocked, spreading very quickly.
The tale of Tu Yan destroying the Teng Snake Clan was likely known across the entire Prehistoric Era now.
“Hey, look over there.”
A crimson figure approached slowly, walking gracefully, feathers shimring brilliantly in the sunlight.
“Bird… what kind of species is this?”
“Never seen it before…”
Chuzheng swaggered in, imdiately drawing attention in the market.
Chuzheng built a platform and stood atop it: “I’m looking for soone. If you can help find a trace, you can receive a Dragon Crystal from .” To splurge clearly requires more help.
[…] That’s not how you use more help equals greater power!!
The crystalline Dragon Crystal refracted a brilliant luster in the sunlight.
The beasts gathered below expressed their astonishnt.
“Dragon Crystal?”
“Could it be fake? That’s the Dragon Clan’s stuff…”
“Indeed, the thrifty Dragon Clan wouldn’t let a Dragon Crystal get loose; it must be fake.”
“Who are we looking for?” soone asked.
Before Chuzheng could answer, a man suddenly jumped onto the platform.
The man squinted as he assessed her, greed flashing in his eyes: “You’re a Phoenix?”
The mont the word Phoenix was uttered, a strange silence descended below.
Then there was an even more intense uproar than before.
“I knew she looked a bit familiar, it’s a Phoenix!”
“What are we waiting for, let’s get her!”
The beasts’ eyes were filled with greed and excitent.
Capturing a Phoenix—wouldn’t the Dragon Crystal on her belong to whoever captured her?
Moreover, it’s a Phoenix!
Who within the Prehistoric Era doesn’t know of her flesh’s potent effects!
Just one bite, and it’s a fortune!
The beasts boiled with excitent, surging towards the platform.
But the next second, the beasts seed to be paused.
The beast standing on the platform visibly disintegrated into powder.
Dust drifted down, covering them.
