"Phoenix Dance, weren't you in seclusion? Why did you suddenly come out?" Ye Chen remained calm as he asked Phoenix Dance.

"My Dao heart is imperfect. Even if I continue my seclusion until death, I cannot Transcend the Other Shore, so I had no choice but to come out," sighed Phoenix Dance.

"Imperfect?" Ye Chen asked curiously. "You are a young supreme being with an invincible Dao heart. How could it be flawed?"

"I was once defeated by the Heavenly Emperor and almost got trapped and killed by him. This incident has become my heart demon."

"As long as the Heavenly Emperor lives, I struggle to advance!"

Phoenix Dance had been defeated only once, and it was at the hands of the Heavenly Emperor!

Ye Chen hesitated, feeling quite bewildered in his heart.

He hadn't expected Phoenix Dance's Dao heart to be imperfect, preventing her from advancing. He thought it was all his fault... He blamed his own excessive violence for causing her psychological trauma!

"Qin Yan, what are you looking at here? Is there a treasure in the pond?" At this moment, Phoenix Dance turned to speak to Qin Yan.

Qin Yan had been facing away from her the whole time, looking at the pond, which aroused Phoenix Dance's curiosity; she wondered if there was something valuable in the water.

"Nothing much," replied Qin Yan.

"Why is your face red?" Phoenix Dance asked, not quite tactful. "Right, there were fluctuations from a fight just now. Did you encounter an attack?"

"..."

The atmosphere among the three became awkward since Phoenix Dance seemed to have discovered something.

"You two?" Phoenix Dance glanced at Ye Chen and then at Qin Yan, her expression one of surprise and uncertainty.

"I have something to tell you," Ye Chen said, looking at Phoenix Dance.

"Speak!" Phoenix Dance's brow furrowed.

"Once upon a time, there was a very clever person, but in the end, she died!" Ye Chen said.

"..."

Phoenix Dance thought Ye Chen was going to explain himself, but instead, he was threatening her!

Ye Chen's meaning was clear—he was blatantly threatening Phoenix Dance, telling her to feign ignorance despite knowing the truth, or he would kill her!

Phoenix Dance was a young supreme being of her generation, and after fusing with the Ancestral Dragon Essence Blood, her strength was definitely at the limit!

However, Phoenix Dance had not yet achieved Transcendence. She would not be a match for Ye Chen, not to mention that Qin Yan was also watching her intently!

If Ye Chen and Qin Yan attacked together, Phoenix Dance wouldn't be able to escape!

"Heh, don't be afraid. I'm just joking," Ye Chen said with a forced smile.

"Joking?" Phoenix Dance took a deep look at Ye Chen, and then, without a word of goodbye, she ran off.

"..."

Phoenix Dance ran off at the speed of a hundred-meter sprint, disappearing in the blink of an eye, leaving no chance for anyone to react.

"Phoenix Dance knows about us. She won't come back now," Qin Yan said.

It was indeed dangerous to let her go, knowing what they were up to!

"We're all trapped in the Dragon Clan's sacred temple. Even if Phoenix Dance ran, she can't escape," Ye Chen said indifferently.
