To Philip’s surprise, the sixth and second princes approached him not long after Conlay entered the cemetery.
Seeing the expressions on their faces, Philip knew that they were trying to win him over.
The sixth prince was the first to speak. “I think there must have been a big misunderstanding when you fought
against the fire phoenix general earlier, but seeing that my ninth brother has someone like you by his side, as his
elder brother, I feel relieved.”
Philip said nothing. The sixth prince’s opening remark was not interesting.
The sixth prince glanced at the second prince and continued, “But with your talent, don’t you think it’s a waste to
stay in that desert oasis?”
Philip understood the sixth prince’s meaning very well. He wanted to arouse Conlay’s ambition to come back and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfight for the throne.
The second prince spoke at this time, “Conlay is back to atone for his crime. You haven’t given him an explanation
about the fire phoenix general yet, but you’re already trying to poach his people.”
Hearing this, the sixth prince immediately retorted, “I just think Philip is a great talent, unlike you, who encouraged
the Great Preceptor to let Conlay suffer the pain of purgatory.”
Philip said, “That’s his choice. No one can influence it.”
With that said, Philip sat cross-legged under the scorched towering tree and began to practice.
Seeing this, the two knew that Philip had ended this conversation, so they left.
One day was enough to do many things.
It was enough for the eighth prince to deploy his troops around the fire phoenix royal family. It was also enough for
the second prince and the Great Preceptor to lay out their strategies.
Conlay’s situation was also unclear. It was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
Philip could only stay on guard outside, while inside, Conlay was enveloped in a special kind of white flames.
Seeing Conlay motionless, Philip just sighed softly.
He knew that from the moment Conlay stepped into purgatory, he had already made up his mind to sever all ties
with the fire phoenix royal family. The moment he walked out of purgatory would also be the moment he made a
comeback and grasped the imperial power of the fire phoenix royal family.
As Philip continued to activate his practice technique, the source of life absorbed the surrounding energy, and Philip
felt himself getting stronger. In particular, more fire elements surrounded him.
Philip made some adjustments and realized that the flame element seemed more active when he practiced under
the scorched tree.

Suddenly, he thought of the legend about the phoenix.
‘Could this be the legendary phoenix’s perch?’
At this moment, a middle-aged man arrived in an aircraft. He glanced at Philip indifferently before he turned his
attention to the ninth prince who was in purgatory.
Philip narrowed his eyes and glanced at the other party, who seemed unaware.
Suddenly, the man raised his hand. A beam of fire shot out of his hand and fell on Conlay, who was still in purgatory.
Philip stood up immediately. He did not want any harm to come over Conlay at this moment.
Philip had his selfish desire for helping Conlay. He wanted to use Conlay’s identity to obtain the Multidew Herb.
If Conlay could gain a position in the fire phoenix royal family, it would not be difficult to find the Multidew Herb by
then.
