Dark Phoenix Prince

Chapter 131: Conflict of allies and enemies

Of course, even if the women lost their will, that didn't mean they would leave right away. After all, their purpose in coming here was to intimidate Alu.

They couldn't just leave, and of course, they couldn't defend Alu either just because the latter looked cute.

The figure who ordered them to intimidate Alu was not a generous figure.

Their courage was still not enough to challenge that figure just for Alu.

In the end, they could only stare at the men.

The men were only stunned for a moment before showing fierce expressions again. They looked like they wanted to scold Alu.

But before they spoke, Alu had already spoken.

"Is there something, senior brothers and sisters?" He asked in a polite tone.

At this moment, he was standing right in front of the energy barrier.

As long as he stood there, they wouldn't be able to attack him.

Through the key that Clara had previously given him, he was able to control the energy barrier. Without his permission, no one could enter apart from the masters and elders.

"Kid, stop acting cute. Do you want to be the holy son of our fire temple with such an attitude." Someone suddenly spoke in a high tone.

Alu saw the person who had just spoken. It was a man and he was one of the three disciples with the cultivation of the sixth layer of nirvana.

The man who spoke had a face that looked fierce. Both of his brows were actually made of flames. As he breathed, flames shot out of his nostrils.

In his hand, he held a large sword that was enveloped in flames.

The nine small suns surrounding the sword proved that it was Nirvana spiritual weapon.

After he spoke, he stepped forward and pointed his sword at Alu.

He stopped right in front of the energy barrier.

"Kid, get out of there and let this father teach you a lesson. This father will tell you what are the conditions for being a holy son. And that's not something a cute guy like you can endure."

"..."

"I do not." Alu replied in an innocent tone. He also shook his head.

"What's not?" The man asked.

"Master Egan who wants me to be the holy son of the fire temple. It's not me who wants the position." Alu explained.

"...*

The man didn't know what to say.

He naturally knew that it was master Egan's decision.

Even though his goal was to come to Alu to stop him from occupying the position of holy son, but that didn't mean he dared to challenge Egan's master's wishes.

In the entire fire temple, there were only a few people who dared to challenge master Egan's wishes. The disciples were clearly not part of them. Even the senior disciples didn't dare to do it, not to mention the disciples who were bound to be kicked out of the temple mountain.

However, even though Alu's words confused him, the man still didn't give up. He glared at Alu before speaking again.

"Little Brat, you seem very articulate. But don't think I'll be fooled by your words. You better get out now. This father will show you the power a holy son must have."

"But you are not a holy son." Replied Alu.

".... *

"Ha ha ha ha." A sudden laugh echoed from afar, startling everyone.

In the distance, suddenly appeared a handsome young man with a very neat appearance.

The young man was wearing a white shirt with a black vest. He was dressed as a butler of a noble family.

His aura is only at the fourth layer of Nirvana. However, when they saw that young man, even the people who were bothering Alu showed wary expressions.

Of course, judging from age, he was probably only in his twenties.

At such an age yet possessing the cultivation of the fourth layer of Nirvana could be considered a peak genius even in the Rising Sun continent.

Besides, his cultivation foundation was obviously much better than that of other disciples.

What caught Alu's attention from the young man was his face which looked similar to Garret's. He just looks a little younger.

After the young man came, he looked at the group of people who were bothering Alu.

"You, you, you. All of you are only dogs belonging to Darien. What qualifications do you have to bother the holy son." He looked at the people with an expression of disgust.

He then looked at the young man who was scolding Alu.

"And you Baxter, you only have one week left on this mountain. If you can't break through, you must go. What qualifications do you have to demonstrate the strength of the holy son."

His words were beyond doubt, infuriating them. The face of the man called Baxter turned green.

He then stepped forward and pointed his sword at the young man.

"Gareth, do you think you can act arrogant just because your brother has the support of master Egan and is close to his granddaughter."

"You are just people from the lower realms. If it weren't for luck, how could people like you be in this place."

Baxter spoke in a tone full of contempt.

"Oh." Alu who heard Baxter's words focused more on the information in his words.

Now he knew that Clara was Old Egan's granddaurgther.

But Garre and Gareth, these two brothers amazed Alu.

They were indeed people from lower realms, but their talents surpassed even the talents of the highest geniuses in the thousand islands region.

If they don't die, it is certain that they will reach the Earthly Nirvana stage in the future.

"Hmph." Gareth snorted.

He ignored Baxter's words. He then looked at the people behind Baxter.

"You'd better all get out of here. This matter isn't something disciples like you can meddle with." Je says.

"Hmph." Baxter snorted too. "What qualifications do you have to drive us out. You are only the fourth layer of Nirvana, this father is not afraid of you."

Flames began to burn in his body after he spoke.

"Want to fight." Gareth looked at Baxter in disgust.

"I hope you can still say that after seeing this."

After saying that, he then snapped his fingers.

Whooss... Whooss... Whooss...

Right after that, figure after figure suddenly came out from behind the mountain.

There were a lot of them. There may be over fifty figures. And ten of them emitted a sixth layer of nirvana aura.

Even though the pressure on that mountain was intense, their combined auras as they erupted still made space tremble slightly.

The surprising thing is; the three people walking in front only emitted the aura of the fourth layer of nirvana.

One of them is a woman who looks flirty. The other two are men.

One of the men has a large body. His face also looked fierce and he looked even fiercer than Baxter.

And the other man. His body is a little thin. He was carrying a sword on his waist, and his facial expression was quite cold.

Seeing the arrival of those people, even the always arrogant Baxter could only retract his aura.

The number of people who came this time was three times more than their group. No matter how stupid Baxter was, he knew he could only step back this time.

"Hmph, you won this time." He snorted.

"Wait for young master Darien to finish his business. I wanted to see if you could still be so arrogant."

"Come back." He then spoke to the people behind him.

Before leaving, he stared at Alu for a few moments. He glared and snorted at Alu before walking away.

"Charlie, I would be grateful if you could make that guy suffer a little. With your strength there shouldn't be a problem, right?" Alu talks to Charlie while Baxter and the others leave.

"Well, I also find that guy very unsightly." Charlie answered.

Shua...

Right after his words, an extremely small speck of light suddenly shot out from Alu's body and flew towards Baxter.

Nobody noticed that light. Even Baxter didn't notice as the light entered his body.

"After a day, that man's cultivation will go down two layers." Said Charlie.

"Mm." Alu nodded.

He wouldn't be able to calm down if the man walked away so easily after shouting at him a few times.

Making his cultivation go down by two layers was already very generous. If they weren't in the Five Elements Sect's territory, Alu would definitely eat his soul.

After Baxter and his group left, Alu then stepped out of the energy barrier. He walked towards Gareth.

When he arrived in front of Gareth, the people who had just appeared were already gathered behind Gareth.

"Thank you, senior brothers and sisters for your assistance." Alu thanked them immediately.

He placed his hands on his chest while bending down as he always did.

When he did, he was silently observing them with the sense of his soul.

Since they had come to help him, they would clearly become his allies. They were probably disciples under Old Egan's tutelage.

His observations were focused on the three people behind Gareth.

The three people were also observing him.

The fierce-faced man studied him with curious eyes while the flirty woman looked at him with bright eyes.

However, the man with the cold face, he could feel the dissatisfaction from him as he stared at him.

"Even among allies, you will still find enemies." He said to himself.

"A holy son but couldn't solve such a small problem. I don't know what master Egan was thinking. Hmph, talent, what talent!" The cold-faced man suddenly spoke.

"..."

...

The story will go to the lower realms. This arc will gather something useful for people who wish to break through to the Earthly Nirvana stage. By the way, breaking through to the Earthly Nirvana stage is different from breaking through to any other stage. In other stages, cultivators will only reach the first layer, but in the Earthly nirvana stage, cultivators can directly reach the second, third, or even fourth layer, depending on their cultivation foundation and something to seek in the next arc.
