Before the End of the World: I Became a Loophole in Heaven

Chapter 241 Feng Hong Clan, Direct Descendants

The beast's brain has no such word as lying. Taowu said whatever came to his mind, and he always spoke at the beast's sore spot. Before he could finish his words, he was hit by Qiongqi's claw. Qiongqi glared at Taowu, "Why do you say anything?"

Ji Li watched with interest the two beasts quarreling in front of him. Qiongqi was sealed by Emperor Shun earlier than Taowu, and Taowu knew what happened after Qiongqi was sealed.

Ji Li smiled very kindly, "Feng Hong clan, a female beast, with a phoenix in its name, I guess, it's not the phoenix we humans talk about, don't look at me like that, I'm just curious and asked, maybe my ancestors have some connection with the phoenix?" Her ancestors used the phoenix as a totem. The phoenix culture appeared much earlier than the dragon culture. It was a matriarchal clan at first, and later became a patriarchal clan.

Taowu and Qiongqi were not stupid either. They were in Ji Li's spiritual platform and looked at the human world outside through Ji Li's eyes. This was a bit like when they were in the Blood Moon Palace and looked down through the moon platform at the Western Desert and the place where the weak people outside the Western Desert lived.

Taowu thought it was not obvious and glanced at Qiongqi again, then raised his neck and pretended to be serious, "Don't joke, the lineage of Fenghong clan was granted the title of Phoenix Totem of Western Wasteland by the Great Emperor and was worshipped by the Highest Heaven, how could there be any descendants that flowed outside Western Wasteland? That is the most noble female beast in Western Wasteland..." Having said that, Taowu glanced at Qiongqi again, "The famous female beast is from Fenghong clan. Ever since that person was granted the title of totem, the direct descendants of Fenghong clan have been cut off. Originally, the Great Emperor wanted to continue to mate with Fenghong clan, but," Taowu rubbed his lips at Qiongqi, "it was ruined by Him. The branch of Fenghong clan cannot be managed by the royal family, and the direct descendants cannot be managed by the royal family. If they refuse to continue to be paired with the royal family, they can only be made totems and stay in the temple forever. I cannot get close to the Blood Moon Palace Temple. Only the emperor can go there. With the totem, the Fenghong clan branch that serves as a totem will also be well behaved, and the emperor can use it with ease. There are black birds, golden pheasants, wind birds, hawks, and many other female beasts, each of which has its own duties... I have never heard of any female beast leaving, except for the sister of the direct descendant, who left the Western Wasteland in order to defeat the Qiongqi who ruined her sister's reputation. The direct descendant of the Fenghong clan, the highest honor of the Western Wasteland, left the Western Wasteland and still looked the same. It is impossible for them to change into other appearances like the lower beasts..."

"So that person is what people called the phoenix at that time, right?"

"That's how people call her. She is the second daughter of the Fenghong clan. The eldest daughter of the direct line is in the temple forever. Qiongqi was sealed by Emperor Shun without informing the emperor. After all, she is the emperor's biological son. She was sealed by Emperor Shun, and the emperor cannot hold Emperor Shun, who has the same status, accountable, but he can hold the second daughter of the Fenghong clan accountable... I don't know the details. I'm a fringe figure in the direct line, and I can't get close to the temple and the punishment place of the Blood Moon Palace. I only know that the shadow of the second daughter of the Fenghong clan has not been seen in the Western Wilderness since then." Taowu finished speaking in one breath. These things have been buried for thousands of years. He didn't feel the slightest bit of shame when he said that he was a fringe figure in the royal family. His father had many sons, and he was just one of them, and the kind that couldn't be helped up, so not much attention was paid to Taowu.

Qiongqi was sealed earlier than Taowu. When he heard Taowu say that his second daughter was sent to the punishment field because of him, he gave Taowu a look and his eyes darkened.

He also felt a sense of relief. Qiongqi didn't know what happened next. He was also listening to what Taowu, the fool, said. He even wanted to hear more news about his mortal enemy.
