Chapter 785: Du Clan’s Decision
Seeing Xue Renxue suddenly falling on his knees startled everyone, actually Tan Bingyu also noticed it. When they saw the egg on the stage they couldn’t feel anything because it was too far away. However, this time the egg is within an arm’s reach. So the bloodline suppression of the unique phoenix had suppressed Xue Renxue and Tan Bingyu whose ice phoenix bloodline is the strongest.
Ugh~
Young Master Su Liyi said, "Eh? I didn’t do anything!?"
"Calm down, boy," Clan Master Su Yin said as he pulled away his son who was carrying the black egg away from the couple.
It was only then did Xue Renxue and Tan Bingyu feel that the suppression on them was lessened and they could finally breathe properly again. Yet the restraint is still there.
Gasp
Tan Shenyu helped his daughter and son-in-law, "What happened to you two?"
"Dad, something... is suppressing us." Tan Bingyu said as she looked around and finally looked at the black egg and pointed at it.
"It’s that...egg."
Watching the scene, Elf King Andromeda noticed that something was affecting the young couple, Tan Bingyu and Xue Renxue. If there is something that makes these two different from the rest of their group is that their bloodline as an ice phoenix was the strongest.
After grabbing the egg from Young Master Su Liyi, Elf King Andromeda asked, "Xue’er, is this egg a phoenix egg?"
"Um? Please give it here, Great Grandfather," said the Moon Goddess.
The moment the black egg ended on the hand of Yue Xuexia, the suppression on those with phoenix bloodline disappeared. Tan Bingyu and Xue Renxue finally felt relief as the pressure on them completely disappeared. However, everyone can see that the Moon Goddess’s eyes are piercing cold as she stares at the black egg in her hand. It seems that it had offended the goddess when it dared to suppress her people before her presence. If not for the fact that the system had told her that this egg is useful Yue Xuexia would have already turned it into a fluffy scrambled egg.
Actually, the egg stopped acting arrogant only because it felt the Primordial God, Lord Shura’s blessing on this girl. Not only Lord Shura but also the Holy Deva’s blessing as well which made the unborn phoenix obedient. However, sensing its master’s disdain it seems that he had made his new master angry. There is also a sense of danger as if he would regret it if he moves the moment he lands on his master’s hand.
Then he actually doesn’t realize his master’s dissatisfaction. Looking at how coldly the Moon Goddess had looked at him, it felt like his master didn’t like him, but he couldn’t understand why.
This unborn phoenix didn’t realize that because of his one-sided suppression on Tan Bingyu and Xue Renxue just only for a reason that it sensed their impure bloodline which made it feel disgusted. He accidentally harmed the two people under the Moon Goddess making the impression of his master towards it extremely bad.
Yue Xuexia said, "For some reason, I don’t like it. Qiuqiu, take it away."

The moment the black egg heard his master asking someone to take him away, made it want to move but before it could react it was pulled into some world and met a man with long black hair and crimson eyes holding it.
{You shouldn’t have harmed the people under the protection of Xue’er. Now she doesn’t want to see you at all.}
The black egg was wiggling as if it wanted to jump off the hands of this man. However, before he did, it was grabbed and placed into a nest. The man whose face was covered behind the clouds sighs.
{You were supposed to be one of her spirit beasts. Now you’re not as important as one of her flowers.}

Back to reality...
Everyone saw that the black egg had disappeared from the hands of the Moon Goddess. They were dumbfounded as they couldn’t understand what happened. Only when the Moon Goddess had made another move did everyone realize that at some point the little ginseng boy’s restraints had disappeared but for some unknown reason this ginseng boy didn’t dare to run away and was staring at the Moon Goddess.
Yue Xuexia said to the little ginseng boy, "You’ll meet the person you want to as long as you follow us."
The little ginseng boy nods its head as if it understood the words of the Moon Goddess who is now walking out of the hall. The Tan Family clasped their hands towards Young master Su Liyu and Clan master Su Yin. As for the little ginseng boy, his hands were grabbed by the little prince who smiled at him.
Yue Zhiya said, "Hello, my name is Yue Zhiya. For now, come home with us."
The little ginseng boy was startled but felt that warm divine energy and merits on the young prince. He let himself be pulled away and followed the young lady in veil who was glowing so bright in gold as if she was a holy figure. There is also a powerful scent of nature coming for two people which made him comfortable and so he left with them.
Young master Su Liyi whispered, "Dad, maybe we should stop capturing sentient beings and just invite them over only when they are willing. We can help them find a suitable master or something."
"Not all sentient beings are kind hearted like the little ginseng boy. Most of them hate humans," Clan Master Su Yin said.
He kept looking at the graceful figure of the Moon Goddess. It matches his memory of the Empress of that fallen empire. But at that time, she didn’t have such a strong presence. Though now it would be hard for men to get her attention, this is a woman who strives to become the strongest.
"No longer a woman who strives for a man’s love," Clan Master Su Yin mumbled.
Bewildered, Young Master Su Liyi whispered, "Dad, if you keep staring at the Goddess I will tell you on Mom."
Then his ear got caught and twisted, his dad said, "You brat, if this old man didn’t receive a report from the butler you would hide the fact that the Moon Empress had come over to our Trading Star without telling the clan! Don’t you know how dangerous that is? The Moon Empress has many admirers and enemies as well. These enemies were more powerful than our Su Clan. Do you want to exterminate our clan?!"
"Also you are too careless, a traitor among your subordinates was in cahoots with the Death Valley who captured the little prince. If the Moon Empress didn’t know you and the Su Clan had nothing to do with this traitor do you think she would still be kind towards us?"
"Thankfully, this old man had arrived on time and secured all the news about the goddess. Now do not bother the Empress. They should be leaving soon." Clan Master Su Yin looked at the high grade dagger artifact hanging on his son’s waist and said, "You’ve already gained your rewards. Don’t be too greedy."
Clan Master Su Yin was talking about the proposal of the Moon Goddess the last time Su Liyi had visited the manor with an elder of the clan. It was this very senior who had reported everything to the Clan Master. The reason Yue Xuexia had spent a lot of spirit stones in this auction was all to repay the kindness of Young Master Su Liyi to her and her group. Now that everything is repaid, anything further than that will hurt the temporary relationship between the two of them.
The auction resumed even after the Moon Goddess and her group had left. The attendees of the auctions were all satisfied by what they had gotten from the auction. Though the deaths of the Du Clan members were unexpected, Clan Master Su Yin still sent a message to the Du Clan about what happened. He didn’t hide the fact that they had offended someone they shouldn’t have and to get prepared for the consequences of their actions.
The Du Clan was confused and angry at the beginning when they heard that the third master and his disciples were killed at the Trading Planet the Dawn Star. Though everyone wishes to fly towards the Dawn Star to get revenge, they had investigated the situation well enough before making a move. They were dumbfounded to learn that the missing ancestor of the Hidden Tang Sect, Tang Yuyi had returned and that she had become a subordinate of the Moon Empress’s reincarnation.
The whole Clan of Du knew too well what they had done towards the Hidden Tang Sect. They had truly wanted to exterminate them as they were the reason why their clan was demoted to their current state. Now that the Moon Empress is involved, they couldn’t make a move even if they wanted to. There were a lot of people who had witnessed what happened in the Dawn Star. Their temporary allies which agreed to exterminate the Hidden Tang Sect had all broken apart from them and no longer got involved.
Du Clan’s Clan Master, Du Yaoyin said, "The Moon Empress is no longer the same as before. If she said that she will seek justice for her subordinate then she will. We cannot escape."
"How about seeing the Immortal Star Emperor’s help?"
"Do you think he would help? He is one of her greatest admirers!"
"What are we going to do? Wait for death?"
"No. We will not seek the Immortal Star Emperor but the Fairy Queen instead," Du Yaoyin said.
