When the group arrived at Ning Nan Mountain, they saw a few people sitting under a tree at the foot of the mountain with worried looks on their faces. One of them was clearly wearing the uniform of a general of the Icepeak Nation.
The soldier who brought Grandmaster Zong over immediately pointed at the man and said, "Grandmaster Zong, that is General Zhang Chen."
Zhang Chen also saw Grandmaster Zong and the others. He hurriedly brought them over and said in unison, "Greetings, Grandmaster Zong."
Master Zong nodded, then looked at that person and said, "You are Zhang Chen?"
"Yes!" Zhang Chen nodded.
Master Zong immediately asked, "You were chasing after the Flaming Winged Bird. What's the situation now?"
"Grandmaster Zong, we were useless and lost the two Flaming Winged Birds … However, the two Flaming Winged Birds were injured and should still be in Ning Nan Mountain," Zhang Chen replied.
Master Zong frowned and asked, "Do you know the approximate location?"
This Mount Ning Nan wasn't small. If they didn't know its exact location, it would be difficult to search for it.
"I don't know." Zhang Chen shook his head.
Grandmaster Zong's frown deepened, but he did not reprimand Zhang Chen. Instead, he said, "Those two Burning Wing Birds should still be in Ning Nan Mountain. Everyone should split up and search for them. If we encounter any Burning Wing Birds, immediately sound the alarm and ask for reinforcements!"
Immediately after, these people started to search Ning Nan Mountain. Other than Grandmaster Zong and the old man who came with him, the rest of the people were in groups of at least two. After all, the Flaming Wing Bird was not weak. If they didn't form such a group, they would have lost their lives to the flames of the Flaming Wing Bird before they could even warn the others.
Grandmaster Zong naturally wanted to find the Blazing Winged Bird as soon as possible.
This was immediately effective. Two of them quickly discovered traces of the Flaming Wing Bird and issued a warning.
Once he heard the warning, Grandmaster Zong immediately sprinted to his left because the warning came from that direction and wasn't far from him.
In just a short while, Grandmaster Zong arrived. His expression turned ugly when he saw that the two people who had sounded the alarm were now burning with raging flames. Not far from them was a Flaming Winged Bird floating in the void.
Master Zong ignored the two of them because he knew that the odds were against them. He immediately chased after the Flaming Winged Bird.
As soon as it saw him, the Blazing Winged Bird charged toward him.
F * ck, looks like you don't know how powerful I am! A cold expression flashed across Master Zong's face.
At the same time, he activated the Grade 6 Ice Talisman in his hand. In an instant, a powerful wave of ice energy surged toward the Blazing Winged Bird.
The Flaming Winged Bird could sense the power of Master Zong's icy aura, so it stopped its forward momentum and tried to turn around to escape.
But how could Master Zong's cold energy give it a chance? The moment it stopped, Master Zong's cold energy had already frozen it.
The Flaming Winged Bird was naturally unwilling to let itself be captured. It flapped its wings with all its might, but it was unable to escape no matter what it did. The flames on its wings grew dimmer and dimmer.
It looked like they had finally caught a Burning Wing Bird. A smile appeared on Master Zong's face as he looked at the Burning Wing Bird.
However, in that instant, a burst of flames suddenly erupted from the Blazing Wing Bird's body. Amidst the flames, the Blazing Wing Bird was burnt to ashes.
Master Zong saw this happen, but he had no way of stopping it. He could only watch as the Burning Wing Bird was burnt to ashes.
Forget it. It seemed like self-combustion was the Burning Wing Bird's ability. There was nothing he could do to stop it. Master Zong sighed inwardly.
When he was dealing with Prime Minister He, the powerful Burning Wing Bird's self-combustion was still fresh in his mind.
Just as he was thinking about it, a warning sounded from another direction. It was obvious that someone had discovered the other Burning Wing Bird.
Master Zong immediately sprinted in that direction.
However, when he arrived, the Burning Wing Bird was nowhere to be seen. From the movements in front of him, he could tell that the Burning Wing Bird had fled in that direction. There were a few people following behind it.
Master Zong immediately followed behind them.
Master Zong thought that he would be able to catch up to the Burning Wing Bird, but after chasing for half a day, he lost sight of it.
Unwilling to give up, he ordered everyone to split up and continue searching.
…
While Master Zong and the others were searching, Linlong and the others, who had just come out of the mystic realm, saw a village in front of them covered in thick smoke.
Wang Yingxiang couldn't help but say, "Young Master, this village seems to have been attacked by the Burning Wing Bird."
"That's right." Qian Jiayi nodded.
"Could it be that other than Prime Minister He, there are still survivors of the Burning Wing Sect?" Miao Feng asked.
"Let's go and take a look," Linlong said.
Immediately, Linlong led the crowd and rushed over.
After entering the village, Linlong and the others discovered traces of the Burning Wing Bird.
Sensing that there was a living person hiding in a dilapidated house, Linlong immediately said, "Come out. The Burning Wing Bird has already left."
After hearing Linlong's words, the person hiding in the house walked out, trembling with fear.
It was a youth in his twenties.
Soon after, the others who were still alive also walked out.
"Do you guys know how many Burning Wing Birds there are? Do you know where they flew to?" Linlong asked as he looked at these people.
He could naturally find the Burning Wing Bird himself, but it would take some time. It would be faster to ask these people, but the prerequisite was that they knew the answer.
"It should be just one Burning Wing Bird. As for where it flew to, I don't know," the first youth that Linlong handed over said.
"It should be just one Burning Wing Bird … It seems to have flown in that direction," another person said.
As he spoke, he pointed to his left, which was also behind Linlong.
It was a middle-aged man.
"Fifth Uncle is right," two or three people agreed.
"Then let's go in that direction." After saying that, Linlong walked in the direction his fifth uncle had pointed out. Qian Jiayi and the others followed behind him.
Since Qian Jiayi was masked, no one could tell that she was Qian Jiayi. Otherwise, someone would definitely say that she was the one who released the Burning Wing Birds.
After searching in that direction for a while, Linlong found traces of the Burning Wing Bird and immediately led everyone in pursuit.
"Young Master, are you going to follow the Burning Wing Bird and find its source?" Miao Feng asked as he followed Linlong.
"Naturally, I have to find its source." Linlong nodded.
"This Burning Wing Bird should have been released by the Burning Wing Sect," Dong Luo said.
"Most likely, but not necessarily," Linlong replied.
After following the Burning Wing Bird for a while, everyone arrived in front of a huge mountain. At the foot of the mountain, there was a stone tablet with the words "Ning Nanshan" written on it.
"So we have arrived at Ning Nanshan!" Those who knew about Ning Nanshan couldn't help but mutter to themselves.
After that, Linlong led everyone forward. The further they went, the more difficult it was to track down the Burning Wing Bird. In order to find the Burning Wing Bird as soon as possible, Linlong split his people into three groups.
After the time it took to drink a cup of tea, Linlong's eyes lit up. This was because he saw a flame in front of him. It seemed to be the flames on the Burning Wing Bird's wings.
Linlong immediately led the three people who were following him in that direction.
Not long after, they arrived at the place where the flame was. There was a Burning Wing Bird there.
This Burning Wing Bird was supposed to be resting, but when it saw Linlong and the others, it immediately flew into the air. The flames on its wings instantly surged and it shot towards Linlong and the others.
Linlong and the others didn't dare to be careless. They hurriedly activated the ice talismans in their hands. In an instant, four streams of cold air surrounded the Burning Wing Bird.
The four streams of cold air terrified the Burning Wing Bird, but it was already too late to escape. It could only activate its flames to deal with the cold air surrounding it.
However, how could it be a match for the four streams of cold air? In just a short while, the flames on its wings began to weaken.
"Alright, let's stop," Linlong suddenly shouted.
After hearing Linlong's words, the other three people withdrew their cold air.
Once the pressure on its body disappeared, how could the Burning Wing Bird stay in the same place? It immediately turned around and flew away.
Linlong naturally did this so that the bamboo rat would remember the Burning Wing Bird's aura and track it so that it could find the source of its appearance.
Just now, before he activated the cold aura, he had already released the bamboo rat.
However, just as Linlong was about to let the bamboo rat lead the way to chase after the Burning Wing Bird, his expression suddenly changed. This was because he discovered that a person had appeared nearby. This person was none other than Grandmaster Zong.
"Grandmaster Zong!" The other three people who followed Linlong also discovered Grandmaster Zong and immediately cried out in alarm.
"As expected, you are from the Burning Wing Sect. These Burning Wing Birds were released by you!" Grandmaster Zong said ruthlessly as he looked at Linlong and the others.
"Grandmaster Zong, you misunderstand. We have another goal. We are here to investigate the reason behind the appearance of the Burning Wing Bird," Dong Luo, who followed Linlong, hurriedly said.
"Hehe, you are still lying at this time. You are really shameless. If I didn't personally see you release the Burning Wing Bird, I'm afraid I would have really believed you!" Grandmaster Zong sneered.
As he spoke, Linlong and the others had already grabbed the ice talismans in their hands. After all, Grandmaster Zong was an expert who could activate grade 6 ice talismans.
"Oh, then what do you want, Grandmaster Zong?" Linlong asked indifferently.
"What do I want? Naturally, I want to take you down and dig out the Burning Wing Sect behind you! "Grandmaster Zong said coldly.
"Then, we can only fight to the death with you, Grandmaster Zong," Linlong said.
"Fight to the death? You are no match for me at all. "Grandmaster Zong sneered.
"Grandmaster Zong, that may not be the case," Linlong said indifferently.
As he spoke, he had already taken out a talisman.
When he saw the talisman that Linlong took out, Grandmaster Zong could not help but narrow his eyes. A trace of shock flashed across his face because Linlong had taken out a Purple Flame Talisman.
However, when he recalled that Linlong's Purple Flame Talisman could not deal with either Elder Ku or Elder Meng, the shock in his heart naturally disappeared without a trace.
"Your Purple Flame Talisman is not enough," Grandmaster Zong said indifferently.
After saying that, he began to silently recite the rune terminology. He wanted to immediately get rid of Linlong and the others.
