Lin Xuan, carrying the Demon Fox, rode the Phoenix at top speed. He flew in a random direction; all that mattered was getting away. He sped onward, never daring to look back. Fortunately, his newly created Phoenix was powerful. Otherwise, they would have been intercepted by other Demon Beasts on the way.
After all, with the Phoenix's speed, most Demon Beasts could hardly catch up. Had he been riding his previous, lower-level Phoenix, he would have been easily intercepted. A Phoenix at the Peak of Essence Pill Stage could fly with relative freedom here. What's more, given how dangerous things were, he was actually hoping a few more Demon Beasts would show up to run interference.
He didn't want them to intercept him, of course, but Vice City Lord Ye Feng, who was trailing behind.
'He isn't catching up?' After flying for what felt like a great distance, Lin Xuan glanced back. He couldn't see any sign of Ye Feng, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
