Chapter 3574
The First Heir
To Philipâs surprise, the sixth and second princes approached him not long after Conlay entered the
cemetery.
Seeing the expressions on their faces, Philip knew that they were trying to win him over.
The sixth prince was the first to speak. âI think there must have been a big misunderstanding when you
fought against the fire phoenix general earlier, but seeing that my ninth brother has someone like you
by his side, as his elder brother, I feel relieved.â
Philip said nothing. The sixth princeâs opening remark was not interesting.
The sixth prince glanced at the second prince and continued, âBut with your talent, donât you think itâs a
waste to stay in that desert oasis?â
Philip understood the sixth princeâs meaning very well. He wanted to arouse Conlayâs ambition to come
back and fight for the throne.
The second prince spoke at this time, âConlay is back to atone for his crime. You havenât given him an
explanation about the fire phoenix general yet, but youâre already trying to poach his people.â
Hearing this, the sixth prince immediately retorted, âI just think Philip is a great talent, unlike you, who
encouraged the Great Preceptor to let Conlay suffer the pain of purgatory.â
Philip said, âThatâs his choice. No one can influence it.â
With that said, Philip sat cross-legged under the scorched towering tree and began to practice.
Seeing this, the two knew that Philip had ended this conversation, so they left.
One day was enough to do many things.
It was enough for the eighth prince to deploy his troops around the fire phoenix royal family. It was also
enough for the second prince and the Great Preceptor to lay out their strategies.
Conlayâs situation was also unclear. It was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
Philip could only stay on guard outside, while inside, Conlay was enveloped in a special kind of white
flames.
Seeing Conlay motionless, Philip just sighed softly.He knew that from the moment Conlay stepped into
purgatory, he had already made up his mind to sever all ties with the fire phoenix royal family. The
moment he walked out of purgatory would also be the moment he made a comeback and grasped the
imperial power of the fire phoenix royal family.
As Philip continued to activate his practice technique, the source of life absorbed the surrounding
energy, and Philip felt himself getting stronger. In particular, more fire elements surrounded him.
Philip made some adjustments and realized that the flame element seemed more active when he
practiced under the scorched tree.
Suddenly, he thought of the legend about the phoenix.
âCould this be the legendary phoenixâs perch?â
At this moment, a middle-aged man arrived in an aircraft. He glanced at Philip indifferently before he
turned his attention to the ninth prince who was in purgatory.
Philip narrowed his eyes and glanced at the other party, who seemed unaware.
Suddenly, the man raised his hand. A beam of fire shot out of his hand and fell on Conlay, who was still
in purgatory.
Philip stood up immediately. He did not want any harm to come over Conlay at this moment.
Philip had his selfish desire for helping Conlay. He wanted to use Conlayâs identity to obtain the
Multidew Herb.
If Conlay could gain a position in the fire phoenix royal family, it would not be difficult to find the
Multidew Herb by then.
