Chapter 1050 Red Phoenix Tribe (7)
Lin Fan watched as the barriers were broken down between this father and daughter pair.
Eventually, it was no longer as tense as it was before.
Though they didn't get any closer, at least they were no longer against talking to each other like before.
For Lin Fan, that was already considered a step forward.
So he said to the Great Elder, "I think that it should be fine for the ex Red Phoenix Tribe head to stay on as an advisor right?"
The Great Elder gave a nod in response to this since this was indeed for the best. After all, if they didn't find a place for Feng Huang, that would mean that they would have to lock him up.
They couldn't just let a Ruler Realm Expert run around on his own.
If he did anything bad, then it would be a reflection on the Phoenix Race. At the same time, the loss of a Ruler Realm Expert was not something that the Phoenix Race wanted to happen.
Each Ruler Realm Expert made up the power of the Phoenix Race and each one they lost would mean the Phoenix Race was becoming weaker.
So this solution was really for the best.
But it was Feng Huang who seemed unwilling to do this.
If it was him who had consolidated this position for himself, then he would be happy to take it. But if he was to take this offer now, it would mean that he was submitting himself to the elders, but mostly to Lin Fan since it was his suggestion.
He was fine if it was the order of the elders since the elders were the ones that took care of the Phoenix Tribe. Both him and the Red Phoenix Tribe owed the elders a lot, so it wasn't demeaning for him to submit to the elders.
But Lin Fan was a completely different story.
Even if he knew that Lin Fan was the Void God's successor and he was grateful since he knew that Lin Fan was the one that restored his relationship with his daughter, he still didn't like him.
From the first moment that he interacted with him, he didn't like Lin Fan.
So if he were to take this position that Lin Fan had created for him, it would seem like he was submitting to Lin Fan.
Normally there wouldn't be a problem with this and it would even be an honour since Lin Fan was the Void God's successor, but Feng Huang just didn't feel right about it.
It was completely because of his own emotions.
Lin Fan could see this as well, so he played his next card.
With a wave of his hand, there was another small figure that came out of the pet storage space.
When she appeared, she looked around herself since she hadn't been paying attention to the outside. She had been completely focused on being with Xiao Huo.
So she hadn't seen anything that had happened between her mother and her grandfather.
When Feng Yu suddenly appeared, she couldn't help being surprised by all these unfamiliar faces.
Out of the ones that she did recognize, she didn't want to get comfort from Lin Fan…so she ran over to Feng Ling. In the end, it was her mother that she cared about the most out of all these people.
Feng Ling picked up her daughter with a smile on her face, but then she remembered where she was.
She couldn't help peeking at Feng Huang and Feng Tian out of the corner of her eyes, trying to gauge their reaction.
Both of them were stunned when they saw Feng Yu appear, but they also immediately recognized Feng Yu as soon as they saw her.
This was the familial bond that they had between them.
Feng Huang was the one that was affected the most since this was his granddaughter that he hadn't seen since she was born.
The way that he treated his granddaughter was completely different from the way that he treated his grandson. Instead of being strict with his granddaughter, his eyes were completely filled with a doting look as if he wanted to spoil her.
As for Feng Tian, he couldn't help revealing a strange look at first when he saw Feng Yu.
He knew that he had a little sister, but he had never met her since she had left when he was still a baby.
But after a while, the strange look in his eyes was quickly replaced with a different look. It was a look that made it clear that he wanted to protect Feng Yu, he wanted to protect this cute little sister of his.
Seeing these looks, Feng Ling couldn't help letting out a secret sigh of relief.
But at the same time, Feng Ling couldn't help revealing a confused look as she turned back to look at Lin Fan.
She did want to introduce Feng Yu to her tribe, but this clearly wasn't the right time. So why did Lin Fan call her out now?
Lin Fan just stood there with a faint smile on his face as he waited for the reaction that he wanted.
And finally, it came.
After Feng Yu adapted to this new environment that she was in, she turned to Lin Fan and asked, "Where's Xiao Huo?"
Everyone couldn't help being confused when they heard this as they had no idea who this Xiao Huo she mentioned was.
Feng Ling on the other hand couldn't help feeling anxious as she didn't expect her daughter to suddenly reveal this secret. The existence of Xiao Huo was something she knew had to be kept secret or else it would have a great effect on the Phoenix Race.
As soon as Xiao Huo's bloodline was known, he would immediately be snatched up by the Phoenix Race.
While the Dragon Race was understanding when it came to Xiao Feng, she didn't know if the Phoenix Race would act the same way.
So she was scared when her daughter casually mentioned Xiao Huo like this.
But Lin Fan wasn't worried at all about this.
He even had a smile when he heard this since this was what he was expecting from Feng Yu.
A child was easy to predict sometimes and in this case, his prediction was completely correct.
Lin Fan gave a nod and said, "I'll call him out now."
As soon as he said this, Feng Ling couldn't help revealing an even more anxious and shocked look. She never thought that Lin Fan would call out Xiao Huo this easily, especially with one of the Great Elders beside him.
But before she could even stop him, Lin Fan had already called him out.
When Xiao Huo appeared, everyone immediately knitted their brows.
That was because they could feel the aura that was coming from him.
The Great Elder was the first to react by releasing his spiritual sense to sweep Xiao Huo. As his spiritual sense sweeped over Xiao Huo, his expression couldn't help changing until he had a look of absolute shock on his face.
He slowly turned his head to look at Lin Fan with disbelief as he couldn't understand why Xiao Huo was with Lin Fan.
But the one that actually moved first was Feng Yu.
She jumped out of Feng Ling's hands and ran over to Xiao Huo before jumping into his hands.
Xiao Huo was already used to this, so he just caught her and held her in his hands.
The two of them standing there together really painted a strange image.
Even Feng Ling, who had slowly gotten used to it, couldn't stop her lips from twitching.
When Feng Huang and Feng Tian saw this, they immediately snapped back to their senses. They ran over to where Xiao Huo was and grabbed Feng Yu out of his hands before putting her behind them.
The two of them formed a protective wall in between Feng Yu and Xiao Huo.
After all, the scene that the two of them had created made one…want to call the police.
Xiao Huo was taken aback by the actions of these two and he didn't know how to react to having Feng Yu suddenly taken out of his hands.
But after thinking about it, he felt that he should try to protect her.
It was just too bad that there was Feng Huang on the other side who was a Ruler Realm Expert. With the pressure that Feng Huang released, Xiao Huo couldn't fight back against him at all.
While watching them, the Great Elder also came back to his senses.
He turned to look at Lin Fan with a strange look and asked, "Was he with you the entire time?"
Lin Fan just gave a casual nod in response.
The Great Elder couldn't help revealing a strange bitter look when he saw this, but he didn't say anything else.
After all, this was a happy thing that had happened.
Their Phoenix Race had just been visited by the Void God's successor and now their true descendant had also appeared. That meant that their Phoenix Race would be able to fulfil the prophecy that their ancestor had left behind.
So it shouldn't matter that the Void God's successor had hidden that he had already found their true descendant…
But there was a part of him that couldn't help feeling bitter that the Void God's successor didn't trust the Phoenix Race to this extent.
Lin Fan could guess what he was thinking, but he didn't explain his actions.
After all, there was something else that he could do to make it up to them.
