Now Icarus's authority in the Flame Phoenix Clan has been reduced a lot. Although no one has jumped out to openly oppose him yet, there have been many cases of overt and covert violations. Even in the Flame Ridge, there have been some comments.
Shake the hearts of the people.
Icarus is still aware of this change, and he also knows that the reason why this situation occurs is mainly because he has been initiated by the Fire Phoenix, and his strength has been damaged, and he can no longer suppress those who have ulterior motives.
The Flame Phoenix Clan is not monolithic. It can be roughly divided into two major factions, and there are also a small number of neutral factions. However, the neutral faction is quiet and has limited influence, so I will not go into detail.
Let’s talk about these two major factions.
One is the patriarchal line, headed by the patriarch Icarus. The age of the members is generally younger. Of course, the "younger" here refers to the monsters, not the 20s and 30s in human society. Basically, they are also younger.
They have lived for thousands of years, and most of them have a hard-line and radical style, so they can also be called radicals.
The second is the clan elders, headed by the big clan elders. Its members include more than 70% of the members of the clan elders association. Most of them are strong men of the older generation. There are not a few who have lived for more than 10,000 years. They are more conservative and stable.
Call it a conservative.
This kind of factional division is destined to have a gap in strength between the two sides.
Monster beasts are different from ordinary humans. For humans, after middle age, the older they get, the weaker their physical strength becomes. But monster beasts are different. Monster beasts have a very long lifespan. Compared with several thousand years, compared with tens of thousands of years,
There is no obvious difference in physical strength, but the cultivation level of a monster that has lived for tens of thousands of years is higher than that of a monster that is thousands of years old, which creates a gap in strength.
Members of the clan leader family are generally weaker than those of the clan elders. After all, there is a huge age gap between them. Most of their top combat abilities are in the late stages of becoming a god, and not many have reached the peak of being a god.
The Clan Elders Department includes most of the members of the Clan Elders Association, and is stronger than the Clan Elders Department in terms of top combat power. You must know that the members of the Clan Elders Association are all strong men of the older generation, and many of them are at the peak level of God Transformation.
Under such circumstances, the chief reason why the patriarchal clan can still withstand the pressure of the clan elders' association is because of Icarus, a super strong man.
Icarus is very powerful. Among the entire Flame Phoenix clan, only the patriarch can match him, and no one else can. If that were the case, Icarus would still be alone, but Icarus is the clan leader.
, and as the clan leader, he can control the most inherited treasure of the Blazing Phoenix clan - Phoenix God Wings!
Phoenix Divine Wings, a pair of wings of the legendary ancient colorful divine phoenix, possessing great power.
The ancient colorful divine phoenix is regarded as the ancestor by all branches of the Phoenix clan, also called the ancestral phoenix. It is the only fifth-level phoenix bloodline documented so far. It is said that the ancient colorful divine phoenix will experience nirvana every ten thousand years, and every time
After one Nirvana Tribulation, his strength will increase by one point. After he experienced Nirvana nine times, he ascended to godhood and went to a higher plane, leaving behind three inherited treasures.
The authenticity of this legend cannot be verified, but the inherited treasure left by the ancient colorful divine phoenix actually exists.
There are three inherited treasures, one held by each of the Blazing Phoenix, Ice Crystal Phoenix and Immortal Black Phoenix clans. Only the clan leaders of the three major clans are qualified to use it.
Without the Phoenix God Wings, Icarus and the great clan elders would be on par with each other in strength, but as long as Icarus uses the Phoenix God Wings, the great clan elders would definitely be no match.
However, the Phoenix God Wing cannot be used easily and requires a huge amount of resources, so Icarus will not use the Phoenix God Wing easily unless it is a last resort.
Because of this, even if the patriarchal clan and the clan elder clan dislike each other, they are not absolutely sure that they can completely defeat the other party, so they have maintained a relatively stable state for thousands of years.
There were occasional disputes, but they never really broke down.
But this situation has quietly changed recently.
Icarus' realm has fallen and his strength has been greatly reduced!
At this time, Ikaros only had the cultivation of the late stage of God Transformation. Even if he used the Phoenix God Wings, he would only have the combat power of the Peak God Transformation at best, and could no longer compete with the elders of the wealthy clan.
So people from the old clan began to get ready to take action.
Not only did he disobey some of Icarus's orders, but he also secretly contacted the flaming phoenix and other subordinate races, which seemed... to have some conspiracy.
If things continue like this, I'm afraid Icarus' position as the leader of the clan will be threatened.
Icarus was aware of all this.
But he was helpless.
In this land, the strong are respected and the weak have no right to speak out.
But Icarus has no regrets at all.
Phoenix has fallen, and his will, true energy and blood have been passed down to Huofeng, so in the mind of Icarus, he has already regarded Huofeng as his daughter. He gave Huofeng enlightenment out of sympathy.
A daughter's love also has compensation.
It's just that the current situation is really giving Icarus a headache.
….
"Young friend Lin Fan is right." Icarus nodded and laughed at himself: "It's embarrassing to say that I, Icarus, have been in power for 8,342 years, but until now, I still haven't conquered the entire world.
The clan is in our hands, which is why we are in the current situation."
Huofeng said with some self-blame: "Clan Leader, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me..."
Icarus looked at the fire phoenix, smiled kindly, and said, "My child, this is not your fault."
Lin Fan looked slightly moved.
He could feel Icarus' love for Fire Phoenix.
It seems that sending Fire Phoenix here is indeed the right choice.
As for the civil strife of the Flame Phoenix Clan...
Lin Fan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a calm and calm smile.
Even for the sake of Huofeng's "new home", Lin Fan would nip this civil strife in the cradle.
Icarus looked at Lin Fan again and said: "Little friend Lin Fan, tomorrow is our clan's clan competition once every ten years. It is of great significance. I am afraid that the older members of the big clan will use this as an excuse to cause trouble. To be honest, this time
I am not sure of quelling the turmoil, so if you can, you can take Huofeng away. If I get through the difficulty this time, and you send her back again, if... then you should never return to the Ten Thousand Demons Realm again!"
It's a bit like explaining the aftermath.
"Clan leader..."
Huofeng was a little anxious.
Although the contact time was short, Huo Feng still quite recognized Ikaros.
Icarus raised his hand to signal Huofeng to stop talking, while he kept looking at Lin Fan.
Lin Fan looked up at Icarus and said, "Chief Icarus, if you regain your peak strength now, are you sure you can stabilize the situation?"
"If I had peak strength, it wouldn't be a problem, it's just..."
Icarus shook his head helplessly.
His strength has been greatly depleted, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to recover without him for three to five years.
Lin Fan smiled slightly and said, "That's it, I have a way to restore you to your peak strength immediately."
