Treasure-hunting: Into the Unknown - Chapter 1223 Why Do You Think We Will Believe You!

Meanwhile, inside the Phoenix Pavilion’s hall, their authorities were in a terrible conundrum. Holy Phoenix, along with some elders and their sect’s senior members, was racking her brain for avenues to keep the Moon Shadow at bay.
