Clearly, they hadn't fully recovered from the previous shock and awe. Ignoring them, Lu Yuan slowly let his gaze fall upon the "mastermind" behind it all—the Phoenix Egg.
"COO—"
Sensing Lu Yuan's gaze, the Phoenix Egg cooed, seemingly about to flee.
Lu Yuan summoned his crimson great axe again. He smirked at the egg and said coolly, "Want to see if this axe of mine can crack your shell?"
As he spoke, a surging, crimson bloodlight began to coalesce on the massive, grayish-white axe in his hand. A vast and terrifying pressure enveloped the Phoenix Egg from afar.
It turned out that threats were quite effective. The Phoenix Egg, which had been trying to escape, immediately became timid and docile upon sensing Lu Yuan's intention, obediently sidling up to him.
Only then did Lu Yuan's expression soften slightly. In his Ming King form, the Phoenix Egg, which was quite large compared to a normal person, looked no bigger than a quail's egg in his eyes.
