Chapter 127 Night Escape
Chapter 127 Night Escape
Lily and her team took the golden feather back to the depths of the palace. Just as they were about to study the secret of the golden feather, a loud noise suddenly broke the silence of the night. The window was suddenly pushed open, and a figure quickly rushed into the room. It was the black shadow.
"I didn't expect you to come back," the black shadow sneered, "I must get that feather today."
Lily didn't hesitate at all. She hid the golden feather in her sleeve and shouted at the shadow, "You'll never succeed!"
Mo Li quickly drew his sword to meet the enemy, while Miao Mi cast magic to protect Lily. The black shadow sneered and summoned more dark creatures, and the battle broke out again. At this moment, a strange voice came from outside the door: "Follow me!"
Everyone turned around and saw a woman in a gorgeous robe with a determined look on her face. Lily recognized her as the mysterious wise woman in the palace - Fairy Moon Shadow.
"Follow me, quickly!" Fairy Moon Shadow said anxiously. Lily led the team to follow her without hesitation, through a secret passage hidden deep in the palace.
"Where does this passage lead to?" Lao Hu asked breathlessly.
Fairy Moon Shadow replied: "This is the most secret escape route in the palace, known only to the royal family. We must leave as soon as possible and find a safe place to study the golden feather."
The passage was narrow and winding, but under the leadership of Fairy Yueying, everyone moved forward quickly. Just when they thought they could escape safely, a strange laugh suddenly came from the front.
"Hahaha, do you really think you can escape?" A black shadow appeared at the exit of the passage and looked at them smugly.
Lily and her group were forced into a desperate situation. Mo Li tightly grasped the sword in his hand, ready to fight to the death. At this moment, Fairy Yueying suddenly chanted a spell, and a golden light shot out from her hand and hit the black shadow. The black shadow screamed and stepped back a few steps, but soon stood up again.
"Don't even think about escaping!" the black shadow roared, summoning even more powerful dark forces to try to seal the passage.
Seeing this, Fairy Moon Shadow said to Lily, "Run! I'll hold him back!"
"No, we can't leave you behind!" Lily said anxiously.
"Stop talking nonsense and go!" Fairy Yueying said sternly, then turned to face the black shadow and cast a powerful spell to temporarily trap the black shadow.
Lily and her team had no choice but to move forward and finally reached the exit of the passage. Outside the exit was a quiet forest with the night breeze blowing, giving people a rare sense of tranquility.
"We must find a safe place quickly." Mo Li said.
They found a hidden cave in the forest and hid there temporarily. Lily took out the golden feather and looked at it carefully. The golden feather shone with a mysterious light under the moonlight, and seemed to contain great power.
"What secret does this feather hold?" Lao Hu asked curiously.
Meow pondered for a moment and said, "According to legend, the golden feather can not only summon the phoenix, but also open the door of time and space. We must find the right way to use it, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."
Just as everyone was thinking, there was a sound of footsteps outside the cave. Everyone stood up alertly, holding their weapons tightly, ready to face the new enemy. Unexpectedly, the person who walked into the cave was a short, bearded old man.
"Don't be nervous, I'm here to help you." The old man said with a smile, "I'm the guardian of this forest, my name is Feng Lao."
"Master Feng?" Lily asked doubtfully, "How did you know we were here?"
Elder Feng stroked his beard and smiled, "I sensed the power of the golden feather. If you need help, I can take you to a safe place."
Lily and the team decide to trust Feng Lao and follow him through the forest. Along the way, Feng Lao tells the story of the golden feather and the power it holds. It turns out that the golden feather once belonged to a sacred phoenix that died in a great war and sealed its power in the feather in the hope that it could one day be used by a righteous man.
"You are the destined ones, and only you can unlock the true power of the golden feather." said Old Feng.
They came to an ancient temple where a phoenix statue was enshrined, and Feng Lao told them that only here could they unlock the secret of the golden feather.
Lily placed the golden feather in front of the statue and chanted a spell. Suddenly, the golden feather emitted a dazzling light, and the phoenix statue seemed to come alive, with a lively light flashing in its eyes.
"This is... the power of the Phoenix!" Lily exclaimed.
The soul of the phoenix appeared in the light and said to Lily: "Brave girl, you have passed many tests. Now it is time to reveal the secret of the golden feather."
The soul of the phoenix infused the golden feather with power, and the feather instantly became hot, as if it was about to burn. The phoenix told Lily that only those with pure hearts and courage could control this power, and Lily was such a person.
Lily felt the power of the golden feather pouring into her body, and she suddenly understood how to use this power. She waved the feather gently, and a door of time and space slowly opened, leading to an unknown future.
"We must use this power to stop the shadow's conspiracy." Lily said firmly.
Elder Feng nodded: "That's right, your mission is far from over. Remember, no matter how many difficulties lie ahead, don't give up."
Lily and her team walked into the gate of time and space, ready to meet new challenges. They knew that this adventure would be more full of unknowns, but they were confident that they could overcome everything because they were a united team.
"Let's go, our journey continues!" Lily said loudly, leading everyone on a new journey.
