Gruesome Warning!
.
A somewhat heartbroken and pissed off Zhurong Fen had buried her one-sided love for good.
But then a new problem arose...
Tianlong's protective enchantments were failing, but whenever he was in danger, Yin Xiaolong somehow always appeared to protect him!
And generally, all Yin Xiaolong's moves seemed to strengthen the very throne she and Yu Wang sought to weaken!
And then she discovered that Yin Xiaolong had gone to the Abyss of No Return for the Blood Hell Lily...
Zhurong Fen instantly realized he needed the Lily to cure Tianlong, but despite sending powerful immortals and demons to steal the Blood Hell Lily, Bailong effortlessly bypassed them all, bringing the Lily back to Tianlong.
And shortly after, he fully healed Tianlong, making him more difficult for Zhurong Fen to handle, and strenghtening the Sky throne even further!
Swallowing bitter defeat, Zhurong Fen withdrew a little bit, latching onto Fei Yun instead. Then she ordered Feng Yuexia to move into Sky Palace so they had their claws between the three friends.
But bringing Yuexia forward turned out to be a mistake...
Because Yan Liwei appeared beside Yin Xiaolong!
This of course led to Yin Xiaolong curing Yan Liwei, and then eventually led people to question who the real Golden Phoenix was.
Zhurong Fen orchestrated the Magic Peach plan, but Yin Xiaolong still found a way to upturn the entire lie, revealing that Yan Liwei was the real Golden Phoenix all along.
And this led to the fall of the Bird King and Queen, making Zhurong Fen lose control over the Bird Clan, especially since the magpies and peacocks were left displeased and disgruntled.
The new Bird King, Yan Liwei's father, was too loyal to submit.
Zhurong Fen's hold over Feng Yuexia was nearly broken, but Zhurong Fen kindly 'cheered her up', saying,
"Your parents have taken the fall for you, so my brother won't necessarily part ways over this. Let's hope he never finds out that you knew all this from your childhood!" She patted Yuexia's back, and with a worried expression, she added,
"And then there's the problem of your face... If we stop the annual Thousand Flower technique, won't you go back to being plain-faced? My brother might not be able to take it..."
This warm reminder snapped Feng Yuexia to reason, reminding her that there were more secrets at stake between them, and as expected, Yuexia instantly dropped to her knees and begged Zhurong Fen not to reveal anything more.
She even pleaded with her to keep up the Thousand Flower technique so she could maintain her beauty...
Zhurong Fen had made the best of the situation.
But after that, Yin Xiaolong only became an even sharper thorn in her side!
Tianlong was now too well protected, as Bailong had placed a danger seal on, reverse-summoning himself whenever Tianlong was in any mortal danger.
And then to worsen matters, Zhurong Fen began to notice that her carefully placed followers in Sky Realm were being targeted, which led to the realization that Bailong had noticed her followers since the Abyss of No Return!
Since then, he and the Sky Emperor had been playing a patient game, slowly identifying more and more followers, monitoring them for years, and then silently striking!
