Hearing the truth, the two elders furrowed their brows.
Obviously, Elder Feng Yu still stubbornly believed that Zhao Jingyan, as the great commander of Phoenix Palace, shouldn't be out at this time. Elder Huo Yu said in a deep voice, "I have heard of the Curator's name. Previously, I thought it was strange. Jing Yan, it's impossible for you to make a phoenix undergo nirvana by yourself. Let's not talk about you, even Feng Yu and I might not be able to do it. That Curator actually understands the habits of phoenixes and knows the path of nirvana. He is a true expert of the present age. Since you are indebted to the Curator, he has summoned you to clean up. Go, leave Phoenix Palace to me and Elder Feng Yu."
Hearing this, Zhao Jingyan was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed to express her thanks. Elder Feng Yu was shocked and had a puzzled expression, "Elder Huo Yu, you..."
The latter waved her hand, indicating that she would speak later.
Although Elder Feng Yu was unhappy, she could only swallow her anger and wait until Zhao Jingyan left on Phoenix Palace's Phoenix Feathered Flying Beast before she couldn't help but ask.
Elder Huo Yu said, "This matter isn't that simple. You've also seen the phoenix beast after Jing Yan underwent nirvana. Her strength has increased by more than several times. To be honest, neither you nor I can do such a thing. This means that the Curator is no ordinary person. Not long ago, I faintly felt an invisible force invading the Phoenix Palace through some unique method. I was unable to touch this invisible force, much less stop it. Now, it seems that it was the Curator's method to notify Jing Yan." Elder Huo Yu said, " Let me ask you, such a top expert might have already surpassed Phoenix Palace. It's definitely not a good thing to offend him. On the contrary, if we can continue to be on good terms, it will be a great blessing for Phoenix Palace. "
When Elder Feng Yu heard these heartfelt words, she was silent for a moment before nodding.
Obviously, she also approved of it.
"Feng Yu, you and I are already old and don't have much lifespan left. We originally thought that we could live in seclusion for a few years, but we didn't expect to encounter internal strife in Phoenix Palace. This can be considered a catastrophe. Now that Phoenix Palace's vitality has been greatly damaged, if news of this spreads, it will definitely be spied on by some former enemies. Even if Jing Yan is in charge, how long can she hold on? If we can pull in a strong external aid, Phoenix Palace will be able to survive this disaster. "Clearly, Elder Huo Yu was thinking further.
Elder Feng Yu pondered for a moment and had no choice but to nod.
"But from what I heard from Jing Yan, that Curator seems to have encountered some trouble. What if our Phoenix Palace is implicated …" Elder Feng Yu voiced out another layer of worry.
"That's fate. You can't have all the good things. Sometimes, luck is also very important." Elder Huo Yu laughed, "Let's do it this way. During this period of time, we'll guard Phoenix Palace and inquire about the situation in Tianxuan Royal City. In my opinion, something big is probably going to happen there soon."
After exiting the Visitation Hall, Lin Jin secretly changed into the Curator's outfit.
He was going to visit Emperor Feng Junwu of Tianxuan as the curator and borrow the Heavenly Tomes of the Dao Lord.
To Lin Jin, this was an urgent matter.
Along the way, Lin Jin had thought of someone who could help him deal with the corpse cultivator and the Demonic Appraisal Association. He had fought the abbot of Daluo Temple before, and he knew that the abbot was a true expert. Each of his four guardian beasts was at Rank 5, and each of them could rival a premium country in terms of combat power.
If he could invite the abbot of Daluo Temple, Lin Jin felt his chances of success would increase.
But the problem was that he was too far away to inform the abbot. Moreover, after giving it some thought, Lin Jin knew that he couldn't invite the abbot as Lin Jin so he had to use the curator's identity.
However, he had used the curator's identity to cause trouble at Daluo Temple. Although they had reconciled, who knew what the abbot was thinking after the incident.
Moreover, Lin Jin's attitude as the curator back then was that he was the second strongest in the world. Asking for help now would be too degrading.
The main problem was that he didn't have enough time. Tianxuan Royal City was too far away from Daluo Temple and the trip would take up a lot of time.
As he pondered, Lin Jin arrived outside Tianxuan Palace.
Someone came up to question him and Lin Jin revealed his identity. Someone immediately went to report the matter.
Soon, Lin Jin saw Yan Quan, the chief steward of Emperor Heavenly Jade, hurrying over.
"Are you Curator?" Yan Quan sized up Lin Jin.
Wearing a beast king mask and a long robe, Yan Quan stood tall and imposing.
Just by looking at him, one could tell that he was extraordinary.
"Yes, I'm here to pay a visit to Emperor Heavenly Jade," Lin Jin said. After all, he was now playing the role of the curator and he was experienced in this.
Experts had the bearing and the way they spoke. After the incident at Daluo Temple, Lin Jin's acting was flawless this time.
"Curator, please!" Yan Quan was someone who had seen the world, but now, facing the curator, he felt an inexplicable sense of oppression.
So much so that Yan Quan didn't dare to look at the curator's mask.
Yan Quan was currently leading the way while Lin Jin trailed behind. Behind them were some guards and pet beasts, probably afraid that something might go wrong.
Besides that, Lin Jin could feel the undercurrents around him. Many experts were lying in ambush.
Lin Jin understood this well.
If he were the emperor, he would be wary of meeting a peerless expert even if he already knew that the person was coming.
If this was Daluo Temple, Lin Jin would have released his aura to suppress all beasts within several hundred meters of him. Even those who were further away would be affected and frightened by his aura.
However, Lin Jin was here as a guest to borrow the Daolord's Heavenly Tome so he couldn't be so overbearing.
Hence, Lin Jin ignored their petty actions and followed Yan Quan.
When they arrived at a large hall, Yan Quan had Lin Jin wait while he went in to inform the curator.
Lin Jin nodded.
After Yan Quan went in, Lin Jin was left standing alone outside the hall.
It might seem quiet, but there were many powerful auras around. This was clearly different from the last time they met Lin Jin. Last time, it was casual but this time, it was as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
Fortunately, Yan Quan soon came out to invite Lin Jin in.
Once Lin Jin entered the hall, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Because there was an invisible pressure on the empty ground in front of him. Lin Jin didn't sense it, but the door to the guest hall behind him vibrated.
There was clearly something fishy up ahead. Lin Jin figured it was some kind of formation.
Once inside, as long as someone activated it, it would immediately turn into a killing formation.
But Lin Jin wasn't afraid.
No matter how powerful a killing formation was, as long as he opened the visitation hall, he could escape. Hence, after a moment of hesitation, Lin Jin let out a hearty laugh and strode forward.
Emperor Feng Junwu's heart skipped a beat when he saw this from his throne.
As the emperor, how could he not know that the curator had noticed something amiss? However, the man was bold and fearless. This made Feng Junwu feel a chill down his spine.
