The bird’s cry was immensely loud, echoing throughout the entire Island of the Monarch. Its sound was unlike any other bird, exceedingly strange.
Everyone turned toward the source of the sound, even the members of the Schneider family came to a sudden halt.
The fire pit in the courtyard of the Schneider family exploded, sending mud scattering through the air.
Following that, a colossal bird soared into the sky. With majestic wingbeats, it soared high, its entire form /engulfed in a fiery red blaze. Its face glowed radiantly yellow, crowned with a feathered crest on its head, and tail wings gracefully trailing behind.
As it moved through the air, its entire body shimmered with a faint red glow. Its eyes gleamed with a sharp and vibrant intensity as if it were a being not of this world.
Everyone stared in astonishment, not knowing what it was.
“Is… Is this the legendary phoenix?” Philbert was the first to regain his composure, uttering in astonishment.
This world was teeming with creatures unknown to the average person, but the phoenix evidently didn’t belong to the ranks of ordinary creatures as it could only exist in the realm of celestial beings.
Hearing his words, the crowd also regained their composure. They too affirmed that this was indeed the phoenix, identical to the legendary phoenix from the tales.
“Where did the phoenix come from?” Ana exclaimed in astonishment.
“How beautiful…” Eva stared in admiration.
“It… It’s that wild chicken!”
As if a revelation had struck him, Garth spoke instinctively, “Humans and beasts have to go through the heavenly thunder tribulation to achieve breakthrough, but there’s one incredibly special case! That’s the phoenix! The phoenix requires the embrace of intense flames to undergo reincarnation! It’s that wild chicken!”
The crowd was even more astonished. They hadn’t expected Ruby to not only survive the ordeal, but to transform into a phoenix.
The phoenix, as if to affirm Garth’s words, swiftly dove down and reached Remus’ side. Its eyes shimmered with tears as it continuously nuzzled Remus’ cheeks with its head.
Remus was also a bit bewildered, as favonovel.com had thought Ruby was dead. He asked in astonishment, “Are are you Ruby?”
“Chirp!” Ruby let out a sorrowful cry as if conveying to Remus that favonovel.com was indeed Ruby.
A boundless delight surged within Remus’ heart in an instant.
“Get it for me, quickly! Capture it!” Garth suddenly exclaimed, his excited expression turning crimson.
That was an unmistakable phoenix, a unique and rare marvel existing nowhere else in the world, and favonovel.com simply had to capture it.
Upon hearing his command, the guards hesitated not a moment, swiftly converging on Ruby from all directions. Their speed sliced through the air, the continuous sonic boom echoing.
However, Ruby reacted even faster. Its twin claws effortlessly gripped Remus, and with a powerful sweep of its wings, it ascended gracefully.
Its speed was nothing short of astonishing, as its form seamlessly shot skyward in the blink of an eye.
Despite the Supreme Martial Imperial and the guards accelerating first, Ruby was simply too swift as they couldn’t catch up at all.
Garth looked up with impatience and urgently commanded once again, “Everyone, take action! Capture it! Hurry, everyone, seize it!”
As his words fell, six figures emerged from the shadows around the island, rising abruptly as if leaping through space, soaring 100 yards high in a single bound, rushing straight for Ruby.
However, the speed of humans could never surpass that of the legendary phoenix, and there were also certain limitations to the heights humans could reach.
Ruby soared through the clouds.
Those six figures could only stay beneath the dark clouds, unable to ascend any higher even if they pushed themselves to their limits.
