49 The Phoenix's Blaze & The Ling Master's Challenge
Queen Wu's eyes burned with an intense, fiery light — brighter, fiercer than ever before. The pain and power surged through her wings, igniting flames that danced wildly around her.
She rose higher into the air, her voice echoing like thunder:
"You didn't see anything."
With a devastating cry, she unleashed her full power — a blazing torrent of phoenix fire that surged downward like a meteor shower, engulfing the remaining monsters in searing flames.
One by one, they were consumed, their roars extinguished as the fire purified the battlefield.
Below, the war paused — all eyes fixed on the queen's blazing silhouette, the air still trembling from her power.
Meanwhile, Wang San stood face to face with the Ling Master, the haunting melody of his flute still lingering in the air.
Ling Master (cold smile):
"Impressive… but your tricks won't save you forever, boy. Who gave you such power?"
San met his gaze defiantly, flute ready at his lips.
"Power comes from within. You'll learn that soon enough."
The Ling Master's eyes darkened.
"Then prepare yourself. This is only the beginning."
A silent challenge passed between them, the tension thick as a storm ready to break.
