Chapter 90
The Flower Goddess Peach Blossom
"Has the once high and mighty Azure Phoenix God Clan fallen to such a state?"
Before Qingling could make a move, the woman in red robes revealed her identity in a single sentence, her tone full of sarcasm:
"Leaving the Eternal Heaven, he actually willingly submits to others, becoming a slave and servant? Tsk tsk tsk, it's truly lamentable."
Qingling's pretty face changed slightly. "You, who exactly are you?"
The fact that you can tell her background at a glance means that this demoness must also be from the Eternal Heaven!
Tao Yaoyao chuckled softly, "I am a person forgotten by the world."
At that moment, another golden light descended from the sky.
Jin Yu landed in the courtyard and looked at the eight-foot-tall woman in red robes with an unprecedentedly solemn expression.
"Tao Yaoyao? You traitor to the divine race, you've actually escaped to this world?"
"Lord Jin Yu, it's been a long time."
Tao Yaoyao smiled sweetly and said to Jin Yu with deep emotion:
"It must have been nearly a thousand years since we sisters parted ways in the Eternal Heaven, hasn't it?"
"Who is your sister?"
Jin Yu snorted coldly and shouted angrily:
"If you hadn't betrayed us in the face of battle and been the first to surrender, how could those scum of the divine race have so easily breached the barrier of my Azure Phoenix Divine Race?"
Tao Yaoyao sighed softly, "Sister Jin Yu has misunderstood me so deeply~"
"If I hadn't feigned defection to the enemy and opened the passage from Dushuo Mountain to the outside world, do you think those scum of the divine race would have let you escape?"
"I sacrificed most of my divine power to help you escape from Dushuo Mountain, but in the end you regard me as an enemy and won't even call me 'sister' anymore..."
"Wh-what?" After hearing what she said, Jin Yu's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief.
Tao Yaoyao, the flower goddess who guarded Dushuo Mountain back then, was actually feigning defection to the enemy.
Is it to send away the last members of their Azure Phoenix Clan?
"Sister, is what she said true? Is she the legendary—Flower Goddess?"
Faced with his younger sister Qingling's question, Jin Yu's expression was complicated, and he remained silent.
The woman in red robes before us is none other than the Flower Goddess Tao Yaoyao, the former mistress of Mount Dushuo in the Eternal Heaven, and the guardian deity of the Azure Phoenix Clan.
He was also Nuwa's eldest disciple, holding a prestigious position. He was not only incredibly powerful but also kind-hearted, deeply loved and respected by his people.
She was still young then and loved to play with the Flower Goddess. The Flower Goddess also liked her very much, often telling her stories and even teaching her some spells that the Azure Phoenix Clan had never mastered.
The two women addressed each other as sisters and had a deep bond.
Later, however, a group of uninvited guests stormed Mount Dushuo, attempting to seize the five-colored phoenix feathers, the treasure of her Qingluan clan.
Countless clansmen perished because of this. Just as the group of uninvited guests was about to leave, the Flower Goddess Tao Yaoyao, who was supposed to be the guardian of the Qingluan clan, suddenly opened the barrier, allowing the group of uninvited guests to break into the sacred land of the Qingluan clan.
Thus, the Azure Phoenix clan was wiped out.
Only Jin Yu and Qing Ling, the fledglings of this world who had not yet hatched, escaped from Dushuo Mountain and fell into this mortal realm through a crack.
"For Jin Yu's sake, I will not pursue this matter further today."
"However, Jin Yu, you must remember that you are a member of the Eternal Heaven's divine race, not a mortal from the lower realm. Never forget your identity."
After Tao Yaoyao finished speaking, she transformed into countless peach blossoms and disappeared.
Jin Yu looked in the direction where Tao Yaoyao had disappeared, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
She didn't know why the Flower Goddess had fallen to such a state as they had, but she knew very well that the Flower Goddess before her was no longer the gentle and kind Flower Goddess she once knew.
She seems to have changed after arriving in this mortal realm.
"elder sister……"
Qingling called out softly, her eyes filled with worry as she looked at Jinyu.
Jin Yu shook his head. "We'll talk about this later. Let's see how the young master is doing first."
After speaking, he quickly walked to Jiang Chao's side.
At this moment, Jiang Chao was still in a state of heightened bloodline, with a robust body, bulging muscles, and a vast and powerful flow of qi and blood.
The two women standing beside him appeared exceptionally petite.
She placed her fingers on Jiang Chao's wrist.
A moment later, Jin Yu's brows relaxed and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Young Master is alright; he simply wandered into the Peach Blossom Illusion."
Upon hearing this, Qingling breathed a sigh of relief and then looked at her sister.
"How could the legendary Flower Goddess have come to this place? And the aura emanating from her isn't divine power, but demonic power?"
Upon hearing this, Jin Yu was actually quite puzzled.
Tao Yaoyao is not only the lord of Dushuo Mountain, but also an ancient deity. Her sudden defection to the enemy back then was already strange enough, but what is even stranger is her current state.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as possessing overwhelming demonic power!
But the Flower Goddess is a disciple of Nuwa and has already attained divine status. How could such a being suddenly become a demon?
The Eternal Heaven is not only home to gods, but also to many ancient and extraordinary demon species.
These powerful demons are numerous and diverse, each possessing unique abilities, and are not much weaker than the gods.
"I can't say for sure about this, but what I'm certain of is that something extraordinary happened in the Eternal Heaven after we escaped!"
Jin Yu was unwilling to say more about this matter, because the young master had escaped the Peach Blossom Illusion.
Jiang Chao suddenly awoke, and his eyes, which had been blinded by the peach blossom curtain, regained their clarity.
"What am I doing...?"
Jiang Chao looked at the two women beside him who were looking up at him and asked with a blank expression.
Jin Yu laughed and said, "Young Master, it's good that you're alright. There was a powerful demoness who tried to harm you, but my sister and I chased her away."
Jiang Chao nodded. "Thank you."
After saying that, Jiang Chao was about to turn around and look at Chu Nvxia and the others when he found that all three of them were lying on the ground, each of them was injured and looked to be seriously injured.
Jiang Chao was greatly alarmed.
Jin Yu then said, "Don't worry, young master. They've only been knocked unconscious. It looks serious, but they're actually fine and will wake up soon."
Jiang Chao finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Do you recognize that woman in red from before?"
Jin Yu shook his head, his expression unchanged, and said:
"I don't recognize him. Perhaps he's some hidden martial arts master. The martial arts world is vast and full of hidden talents. Who knows where a top master might suddenly appear?"
Jiang Chao still felt lingering fear when he recalled the feeling of being subdued.
"No, you must teach me skills. This time it was too dangerous. I thought my physique was enough to deal with most martial arts masters, but I didn't expect that the saying 'there are always higher levels' is so true."
"I almost, I was so close to dying here today."
Jin Yu and Qing Ling exchanged a quick glance, a bitter smile playing on their lips.
Young master, do you know who you are facing?
That is the master of Dushuo Mountain. Even if something has happened, he was once the Flower Goddess of Changsheng Heaven. You are just a mortal. Even if you have a trace of the Xuanyuan clan's bloodline, how can you possibly contend with him?
Let alone you, even the master, the number one martial artist in the world, probably couldn't do it...
Well, not necessarily. After all, the master has accumulated merits, so he might be able to fight against Tao Yaoyao, whose strength has been greatly reduced.
They might even win.
