Chapter Two!
————————
All eyes in the great hall were fixed on what Zhou Xian held in his hand.
Suspended above Zhou Xian's right hand was a phoenix crown about nine inches tall. The front of the crown was adorned with nine golden dragons and also featured eight jeweled gold phoenixes, with one more gold phoenix at the back of the crown.
The nine golden dragons had varying postures: some were soaring with heads raised, some were standing on all fours, some were walking, and some were running. Each of the dragons was clutching a spiritual pearl in its mouth.
The entire phoenix crown emitted a brilliant array of colors, causing onlookers to squint.
