Blue Phoenix Chapter 469 - The Trials Ends

"Yue!" Cai Jie called out the moment they saw Hui Yue walking up the staircase to the top of the tower.

As soon as the young man stepped foot on the top of the tower, the people present could tell that something was different with him. His weather-beaten skin had become fair; his long white hair had a healthy silver to it, and his eyes sparkled with energy and vigor. It was as though Hui Yue had become a flame of vitality. He now looked youthful and was bursting with power, but they simply had no idea how this had happened.

However, the flame nurtured him back to full health already which was quite unexpected. This flame was definitely a treasure!

"The time we spend in our rooms were brief, and it seems like they somehow are able to slow time down for the people inside. We shouldn’t have to wait long for the others to join us." Hui Yue said, his voice full of admiration as he thought about how powerful these four Divine Beast Gods had been. In addition to their earlier powers they could even bend time itself!

A brief moment after Hui Yue finished speaking, Jo appeared at the top of the tower. Her face was pale, her body was covered in tiny wounds, and her clothes had been shredded.
