Chapter 1457 1457

The flames appeared to have burnt the body of the Phoenix to ashes before stopping entirely. 

”She’s going through rebirth?” Long Chen muttered. It was his first time seeing the rebirth of a Phoenix. 

There was nothing he could do to interfere in the process without hurting himself. 

”Are you really going to let her fight me until all her rebirths are gone?” He asked the Rainbow Phoenix sitting on the throne. 

”Maybe,” the Rainbow Phoenix smiled. “I am not in a hurry.”

”I’m in a hurry though. I can’t wait and waste so much of my time,” Long Chen said, flying back to the ashes of the Phoenix. 

A blue fire lit up around the body of the Phoenix. Since he couldn’t stop the rebirth at all, he decided to approach things differently. 

Waving his hand, he cast a spatial distortion around the flames. The space restrictions stopped him from teleporting himself, but he still could use some distortion to send things back to his storage ring and such. 

Just as he had planned, he sent the Phoenix to his Second Inner world, deciding to trap her momentarily.  

The trap wasn’t a long lasting solution since the Phoenix was a mythical beast who could destroy his Inner World if she was kept there for long. 

”I hope you won’t destroy it,” he said, glancing at the fire. 

He sent the flames inside his second inner world along with the ashes. 

”You sure you want to have her there?” The Rainbow Phoenix asked, noticing what Long Chen was trying to do. “You know she can easily destroy your inner world, and you’ll be dead?”

”I’m willing to take the risk,” Long Chen responded. 

Since he had two inner worlds, he could place one at the risk of destruction without dying. He didn’t want the Phoenix to make him waste his energy which was worse than losing his Inner World since that meant he was going to die. 

He wanted to fight the Rainbow Phoenix, and when he was at his best since she was worse than the ordinary Phoenix. 

”You’re certainly an amusing character; I must say,” the lady said, finally standing up. 

”But you’re wrong about some things. I’m not scared to kill you when you’re at your strongest. You’re intriguing, but I was just careful since you’re an unknown, but I think I know you well now.”

Her facial expressions seemed perfectly calm, as if she wasn’t intimidated at all.

Seeing her reaction, Long Chen couldn’t help but wonder if his initial assumption was wrong. 

”Little Snow, you sure you don’t want to go back? The hard part is going to start now.”

Little Snow simply glared at the Rainbow Phoenix, not responding to Long Chen. 

After a few moments, she actually jumped down Long Chen’s shoulders.

”Good. Stay back and let me handle the rest.” Long Chen thought that Little Snow was going to stay back to give him room to fight, but he soon understood that he was wrong as Little Snow stepped before him instead of moving back. 

Her eyes started shining in a mysterious black light as her body started growing and getting bigger. 

Her face became bigger, her body became longer, and her teeth became sharper as her body started looking more fiercely. 

She turned into a Dark Wolf that was as tall as Long Chen. 

She looked no different than the Devil Hunter Beast, but she was slightly different as her eyes were still their old self. 

”You want to fight me even in that condition? All for that human?” the Rainbow Phoenix asked, stunned. 

Little Snow roared out loud. Her voice sounded as fierce as the roar of Orion, as if she truly was Orion. 

”You’re really weak. You can’t even turn to anything stronger than that? What a disappointment. How far have you fallen? Your transformation was so annoying to deal with in the past, but now it’s no different than dealing with a kid.”

Little Snow jumped towards the Rainbow Phoenix in response, starting the attack. In response, the Rainbow Phoenix simply waved her hand. 

A blue energy wave hit little snow, tossing her away like she was nothing. Little Snow crashed on the wall in the back with so much force that the entire temple started trembling. 

Momentarily dazed at how fast everything unfolded, Long Chen looked back at Little Snow, flying to her. 

”That’s enough! I know you’re even weaker than me at the moment. I can’t let you be hurt! You’re going back right now!” Long Chen said, sternly, seeing all the wounds on little snow.

He knew that she was very strong. She was the strongest of all his beasts, but she wasn’t close to his strength, let alone the strength of another rival who had more strength than her. 

He placed his hand on the head of Little Snow.

”I didn’t want to have to do this but I command you to go back. If you don’t, the contract between us will be broken, and I’ll be hurt. So don’t resist,” he told Little Snow. 

A sparkling light appeared around Little Snow, who looked at Long Chen with stunned eyes, not knowing what to do. 

Little Snow looked back at Long Chen, unwilling. She wanted to resist the command, but she didn’t want to hurt him in case the contract was broken. It was bad for both of them in a way. 

She glanced towards the Rainbow Phoenix right before she disappeared. 

”Much better.” Long Chen stood up, happy that Little Snow accepted his command. 

”Why did you send her back? You care for her that much? You want to die alone? Just what relation do you two have?” The Rainbow Phoenix asked, slightly curious. 

”You’ll never understand such things,” Long Chen replied as his figure flickered. He started his attack. 

Inside his inner world, the Phoenix had already finished the rebirth, only to find herself trapped in a different world. 

There were thousands of beasts that she had never seen before. They were all surrounding her, prepared to attack.

Long Chen had made all these beasts to kill people he sent here, but with the Phoenix, he knew it was impossible for his beasts. He just wanted to keep her busy so she couldn’t think about destroying his inner world momentarily while he took care of the Golden Phoenix outside.
