Qin Sisi and Ye You both widened their eyes, staring unwaveringly at the strange columnar object, unable to comprehend what it was.
Gradually, a face began to take shape on the green glowing column, its features distinctly clear.
It was a very ancient face, with wrinkles densely packed like ravines, and a long beard hanging down, its length unknown.
Only then did they realize that the thread-like things that had dragged them here were actually the beard growing from that face.
"Phoenix, is that you?" the ancient face suddenly spoke, its voice frail and raspy.
Ye You's heart stirred, and he responded loudly, "Old sir, I am a descendant of the Jiu Xi Royal Family, Phoenix is our family's ancestor."
"Oh?" The ancient face seemed quite surprised, its chin slightly moving, and the beard binding the magic sphere unraveled, setting the magic sphere free.
