Chapter 3355 More Important

The woman dressed in white was Lady Jean. She enjoyed a high position in the Phoenix Palace and was not shy about showing it.

When Chance was in the middle of a battle at the Heavenly Cultivation Palace, some maids saw it and immediately rushed off to tell Jean what was going on.

She rushed over, infuriated to see her son being beaten by two Regal Jade Beasts.

The guards saw Jean, exchanged a quick look and quietly slid away.

Other concubines could be reasoned with and spoken to easily, but Jean was cold and loved to let her anger out on others around her.

The guards had looked on when Chance was being beaten by the Regal Jade Beasts.

They were too weak to stop it, but if Jean were to turn to them in anger and ask questions, they'd have no way of defending themselves, and so they opted to run away from the situation.

Hearing Jean's words, Zen was helpless.

Like mother, like son. Chance and his mother were very much alike in character. Jean didn't even know what was going on and had immediately decided to criticize and blame Zen.

"Your son and I are sparring with each other. Why are you making such a fuss?" Zen retorted.

"Mother, he crumbled my sword right when he got here. Obviously he is here to cause trouble. Punish him!" Ahmad said whining.

Jean looked daggers at Zen and said, "As I said, you're acting wildly and atrociously. There's no way for you to deny it!"

She snorted in derision as pieces of ice crystals floated from her fingertips towards Zen.

The crystals were so icy cold that they would have shattered the jade statues into a million pieces if they so much as touched them.

The direct descendants all bubbled with excitement on seeing the ice crystals flying at Zen.

Most of them were proud and arrogant, always looking down upon the disciples outside of the Phoenix Palace. This attributed to the fact they all shared a bit of the blood of Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

Zen had beaten Chance in their territory and this was unacceptable to them.

They had taken it as not only a defeat to Chance, but to all the direct de

go back to your place and rest," said Flamine.

"Lady Flamine! Are you really going to protect these lowly outsiders?" Jean snapped. Her pretty face twisted in anger.

The Phoenix Palace might have seemed peaceful and serene, but the concubines were always in disagreements with one another.

Jean and Flamine had never been on good terms. And now, Ahmad and Chance were beat and Flamine sided with the outsiders? Jean could not make sense of this.

"Lowly outsiders?" A smile of mockery crossed Flamine's face. "Firstly, they are the disciples of the Oneness Sky Palace, not lowly outsiders. Secondly, they are friends of my daughter."

"Friends?" Jean smiled disdainfully and was about to respond, but Flamine interrupted her.

"Thirdly, compared to us, Zen is much more important to the Oneness Sky Palace!"

Zen was the only one capable of deciphering the Truth Enlightenment.

Based on that, Zen was indeed more important to the Oneness Sky Palace than the concubines of the Phoenix Palace.

Jean's heart skipped a beat at Flamine's words. Zen? More important than them?

What made him so important?

This was a hard pill to swallow and she thought Flamine was probably lying to her anyway.

"I don't care what you say. I won't let this matter go to rest unless you hand them over!" Jean said coldly.

"So you want to fight me?" asked Flamine with a menacing smile.
