Chapter 3568

Philip’s and Conlay’s outrageous behavior had certainly caught the attention of the fire phoenix royal

family.

Although this method was conspicuous, to Philip and Conlay’s surprise, not only did the fire phoenix

royal family not behave differently, but they even opened the door and allowed them to enter the fire

phoenix royal family’s imperial city.

All the members of the fire phoenix royal family simply looked at Philip and Conlay.

Along the way, Philip was poised to fight and did not expect this situation at all.

Entering the imperial city again and looking at the banners of the fire phoenix royal family, Conlay

sighed. It had been a long time since he was last back in the imperial city.

At first, he planned to make a big fuss with Philip here, but seeing the familiar streets, buildings, and

scenery, he could no longer arouse such emotions. This was his home, and he was the ninth prince.

The streets were full of people from the fire phoenix royal family’s battalion. Judging from this situation,

they seemed to be waiting to welcome some important people.

Obviously, they were not waiting for Philip and Conlay. Philip even noticed adoration and worship on

these people’s faces.

For the fire phoenix royal family, it seemed that they not only worshipped the person they were waiting

for, but their belief was also rooted in them.

Pulling Conlay aside, Philip asked, “Why are the people from the fire phoenix royal family turning a

blind eye to us?”

In the last battle with the fire phoenix royal family, even Philip did not know how many members of the

fire phoenix royal family died.

By right, the other party should be waiting to tear Philip apart for this grudge.

Conlay pursed his lips at Philip’s question.

“If I’m not mistaken, this should be the Great Preceptor’s handiwork…”

Conlay stared in the direction of the imperial city gates from a distance.

“The Great Preceptor?” Philip frowned.

He had never heard of a great preceptor in the fire phoenix royal family.

At this moment, drums sounded in the direction of the city gates.

Conlay said, “The fire phoenix royal family is divided into many factions. The fire phoenix general leads

one of them, while the Great Preceptor leads another. The two are deadly rivals.”

Conlay had more to say. Although this matter seemed to be a confrontation between the fire phoenix

general and the Great Preceptor, it was actually a confrontation between several princes of the fire

phoenix royal family.

Excluding Conlay, several princes supported the fire phoenix general while the rest belonged to the

Great Preceptor’s faction.

As for the emperor of the fire phoenix royal family, he was nothing but a puppet.

Finally, the Great Preceptor appeared amid everyone’s cheers.

He stood on a chariot with flaming patterns. He was dressed in a luxurious robe with a purple gold

crown on his head, looking solemn and sacred.

As the chariot passed by, almost all members of the fire phoenix royal family shouted, “The Great

Preceptor! The Great Preceptor!”

Philip asked, “Are you saying that since we killed the fire phoenix general on the Great Preceptor’s

behalf, that’s why they’re not doing anything to us?”
