Chapter 2688 Found You

In the Visitor Hall, the Ice Phoenix Clan"s Matriarch took out an Imagery Stone and set it up.

After that, she took out a messaging talisman and activated it, her expression turning determined.

"Elders, forgive me, for I"ll... give up my position as the Matriarch."

"What!?"

A chorus of stunned voices echoed from the messaging talisman while Elder Aradiel Furiose also turned to look at the Ice Phoenix Clan"s Matriarch with shock in his eyes. However, the Ice Phoenix Clan"s Matriarch still continued to talk.

"I"ll also further revoke my belonging with the Ice Phoenix Clan, and I understand this action could be taken as a betrayal, but please, trust me. The inheritors will be sent out no matter what."

"You? Are you crazy? Come back. If we lose you, then who can replace you?" Said an elder with fury.

However, it caused the Ice Phoenix Clan"s Matriarch to smile wryly.

"There are many replacements for me. Aren"t there a few individuals already who were trying to reach for my throat every day? Just give them that position that they"ve always wanted and get rid of internal trouble in one move. Isn"t that convenient?"

"They are not worthy. You are worthy!"

The Ice Phoenix Clan"s Matriarch smiled, a complicated expression appearing on her face before she sighed.

"Time is of the essence, Elders. Also, never come to get me back, or it would ruin my determination and efforts."

"You-"

"I cannot wait any more, so goodbye."

The Ice Phoenix Clan"s Matriarch decisively crushed the messaging talisman and raised her head to look at the elder in front of her with resolute eyes, cupping her hands.

"Elder Aradiel Furiose, as you can see, I revoked my status and belonging with the Ice Phoenix Clan, so I"m literally a free bird now."

"..."

"However, I want to pledge my loyalty to the Aurora Cloud Gate now for eternity and promise that I won"t go back to the Ice Phoenix Clan nor blatantly favor them in any matter or regard whatsoever. If I go back on my words, may the heavens strike me with heavenly lightning and the Aurora Cloud Gate execute me!"

"..." Elder Aradiel Furiose still could not react to the Ice Phoenix Clan Matriarch"s words, appearing to be dumbfounded, but the Ice Phoenix Clan"s Matriarch still continued.

She reached out her hand and gestured to the Imagery Stone that was recording her actions.

"This Imagery Stone will be the proof of my decision and loyalty, and no matter if anyone may come and ask or make trouble demanding my return, you can display it to them as my last words as the Ice Phoenix Clan"s Matriarch. Even if they flip the heaven and earth, I won"t return to the Ice Phoenix Clan. Even if they intrude into the sect for my return, I will watch them die with cold, indifferent eyes for not heeding my warning."

The Ice Phoenix Clan"s Matriarch smashed her fist to her palm and bowed her head all the way to her waist level.

"Therefore, please accept me into the Aurora Cloud Gate. I am willing to become one of its disciples."

"..."

Elder Aradiel Furiose finally came out of his reverie, but he still looked at her like he had glimpsed a ghost.

Did this woman just forsake her glorious status as the Ice Phoenix Clan"s Matriarch to enter the Aurora Cloud Gate, all in order to search for the inheritor?

"What"s your name?" His expression became solemn.

The Ice Phoenix Clan"s Matriarch raised her head and looked at him with resolute eyes.

"Cyclonis Blizzara."

==========

Cyclonis Blizzara looked at Yeyin Blizzara and the other three individuals who surrounded her and pointed to the emblem on her arm.

"I"m no longer the Matriarch but a disciple of this sect, Little- fellow disciple Yeyin."

She said in a languid tone. However, seeing that they remained silent as though they were caught, she couldn"t help but smile at Yeyin Blizzara.

"I had a hint that you were going to meet the inheritor to warn them as soon as you disappeared, but it turns out you"re with the Young Emperor of Death and a few other disciples who are already inheritors. Mhm, I wonder what"s going on?"

? Cyclonis Blizzara"s gaze panned over them as she moved her lips.

"The Earth Dragon Clan"s Inheritor, Isabella. The Fire Phoenix Clan"s Inheritor, s.h.i.+rley. It"s definitely not the Young Emperor of Death, so that leaves us with only you, a woman who trains in ice attribute and very well could be the Ice Phoenix Clan"s Inheritor. Am I wrong?"

Her gaze fell on Tanya, causing the latter to blink before she returned the smile.

"You"re only half right. I am indeed an inheritor, but it has nothing to do with the Candidacy."

"Who are you?"

Cyclonis Blizzara sounded curious, causing Tanya to grin.

"Tanya Frostblight. But sooner or later, you can call me Tanya Davis."

She sounded rather proud, causing Cyclonis Blizzara to raise her brows.

"Oh, you"re the one who killed the Unfettered Gargantuan Ice Fiend. I must say that I"m impressed with your sword skills, and I understand that the inheritance you gained is from an Immortal Emperor who"s not related to the Candidacy but a denizen of this world from Little Yeyin"s account, which... may not be true anymore."

"Still, even if that"s the case, who can say with a.s.surance that you have not inherited the Ice Phoenix Clan"s Immortal Inheritance before, and gaining this additional immortal inheritance was nothing more than just a part of your luck? After all, There have been inheritors with two or more affiliations with non-Candidacy inheritances in the past and the present."

Cyclonis Blizzara appeared like she had found the inheritor, but Tanya merely giggled, not saying anything anymore.

"Let"s leave." She turned to look at Davis and the others and gestured as though escaping, causing everyone to turn back and fly away.

However, Cyclonis Blizzara didn"t take the bait, still not fully convinced.

"If it"s not you, the only other person I could think of is Seylin Blizzara. Her sudden rise in power and her status as King-Tier Fey makes her the most suspicious after you two."

"Who knows? Since you"re a disciple here, you can search your clan"s inheritor by yourself."

Tanya waved her hand as though saying goodbye while bringing everyone away.

On the other hand, Cyclonis Blizzara didn"t follow them, but a blatant smile remained on her face, knowing that even if she was wrong this time, she could tell that these four, especially the Emperor of Death and the people within his family had something to do with the existence of their two inheritors.

After all, there was also a rumor that someone in his group had used the ice phoenix flames back in the Grand Beginnings Continent!
