The Rising Phoenix

"We have a better use for the herb." The middle-aged woman stated.

"Old Woman, you should give your sword to me. I can use it better than you." Fang Daiyu said.

"Huh? Are you crazy?" The middle-aged woman said.

"Oh... Now I am the crazy one? It is the same thing that you try to do to my friend." Fang Daiyu stated.

The middle-aged woman thought for a moment and realised what this girl was trying to say. However, she did not care anymore. She would have to get the herbs even by force.

"I don't care. The herbs must belong to me. Get the herbs for me." The middle-aged woman said to her group.

The people began to attack Bai Xifeng. The Fang Siblings joined the fight. It seemed the people in the group were quite strong. Two Cold Core Realm cultivators cornered Bai Xifeng when they realised Bai Xifeng was also a Cold Core Realm cultivator. They attacked Bai Xifeng at the same time.

Their swords slayed Bai Xifeng's shoulders when Bai Xifeng could not avoid them. The blood was dripping out from the wounds. The Fang Siblings were also injured. However, they did not give up on facing the people.

"You are willing to die because of the herbs?" The middle-aged woman asked.

"Well, if you kill me, you might not be able to get the herbs from me." Bai Xifeng said while frowning as she held back her pain.

"See... Then, your friend can die in your place first." The middle-aged woman said. She turned to the people who were currently facing Fang Zihao and Fang Daiyu. "Kill them. Let's see if she can maintain her calm."

Fang Daiyu and Fang Zihao had no energy to fight anymore. They watched as the people's sword approached them.

"Cerberus, protect them." Bai Xifeng shouted.

Then, the people saw a creature rushing to the Fang Siblings. Cerberus swung his paw, sending the people who tried to hit the Fang Siblings flying over. He then stood up, protectively shielding the Fang Siblings as Bai Xifeng's order.

They looked shocked when they saw a beast, three three-headed wolves, appear there. The beast belonged to the girl.

"Dinxiu, what should we do?" A man asked the middle-aged woman.

"We need to get the herbs. Otherwise, how could I concoct the pill for you guys?" The middle-aged woman said.

The middle-aged woman gathered them to help her search for the ingredients for the pill. She would promise them that she would concoct the breakthrough pill for them later. She did not dare to search for the ingredients alone because she knew the danger.

They attacked Bai Xifeng multiple times. Bai Xifeng also attacked them multiple times. However, she was clearly losing the battle.

"Cerberus, go and help your master." Fang Daiyu stated.

Cerberus stayed there, unmoving. One of the people tried to do a sneak attack on the Fang Siblings. Ichiro opened his mouth and breathed fire at the person. The person got hit by the fire when his clothes caught on fire.

One of them, who had a water element attribute, tried to help by using his water element attribute, but the fire still did not go out. Because of that, the person who had been caught fire quickly took off his clothes. Only that, he escaped his death even though his body burned. The people did not dare to attack the Fang Siblings anymore.

As for Bai Xifeng, she got injured again. However, she still hung on. She was actually trying to see how far she could fight with the enemy.

"You... Are you trying to die? Just hand over the herbs to me." The middle-aged woman felt ridiculous when she saw Bai Xifeng's state.

Bai Xifeng just grinned, trying to steady her stand.

"Since you want to die, then, die." The middle-aged woman said.

She raised her sword and rushed to stab Bai Xifeng. She thought Bai Xifeng was already too weak to fight back.

"Gryffindor, come out." Bai Xifeng mumbled under her breath.

Another beast appeared out of nowhere in front ot Bai Xifeng and stopped the middle-aged woman's attack. The middle-aged woman was shocked. Gryffindor swung his wing and created the strong and sharp wind.

The wind hit the middle-aged woman. She tried to avoid the wind, but she was not so lucky that the wind hit her hand. The wind was so sharp that it cut off her right hand, the hand that held the sword. The sword fell on the ground.

The scream echoed in the silent forest. The middle-aged woman could not believe that her hand had been cut off just like that. Everyone was shocked.

Bai Xifeng took out a Recovery Elixir and drank it. She drank two of them. Only then, Bai Xifeng's wounds begin to close. She took out a pill. It was an Energy Recovery Pill. She threw the pill into her mouth. It melted when she closed her mouth. Her energy also returned.

Everyone was still shocked. First, they were shocked by the beast in front of Bai Xifeng. How could she contract another beast? However, the beast obviously followed her order.

The second ones were the elixir and the pill. They could see that the elixir she drank had the fastest effect. Her wounds healed at an incredible speed. Then, that pill, they could see Bai Xifeng's energy also recovered.

"You... You..." The middle-aged woman glared at Bai Xifeng while gritting her teeth, holding back the pain.
