Golden-Winged Unicorn

Kong Rui searched the imperial capital for two days but couldn't find the whereabouts of the little phoenix.

She also thought about the underground chamber where she had once been held.

However, she had been in a semi-conscious state when she came in and out. That place was also hidden. She had no idea where the underground chamber was.

Fortunately, the spirit beast competition was tomorrow. No matter what, Wen Qiong would definitely bring Little Phoenix out. At that time, there would be an opportunity!

However, the spirit beast competition venue was heavily guarded. With Kong Rui's current status as the illegitimate daughter of the Li family, how could she sneak in?

Just as Kong Rui was feeling vexed, Mr. Li ran over excitedly and handed the opportunity to enter the spirit beast competition to Kong Rui.

"Ling Ling, it's a great thing that you obtained an opportunity this time!" Mr. Li addressed his illegitimate daughter affectionately.

He looked at his usually neglected illegitimate daughter with joy. "This is your chance to bring glory to the Li family!"

"Don't worry! As long as you get first place in this spirit beast competition, I will definitely let your mother officially enter our family's ancestral hall!" Mr. Li revealed a benevolent smile and stared at Kong Rui's face.

Kong Rui didn't kneel in front of him gratefully, as Mr. Li had expected.

However, Mr. Li still saw a trace of excitement and joy in Kong Rui's eyes.

Good. That was the effect he wanted!

As long as she performed well, the Li family would definitely stand out in this spirit beast competition!

Mr. Li, who finally had a chance to hold his head high, turned around and left happily. He decided to go to the ancestral hall and have a good chat with his ancestors to express his great achievement of giving birth to a talented daughter.

Actually, the Li family's original candidate for the competition was Wen Qiong, but the patriarch strongly objected.

Because he felt that an outsider couldn't compete on their behalf. They wanted a child whose surname was Li to win honor for their family.

Originally, among the younger generation, Li Ling and Li Han were the most outstanding. However, after Li Ling's spiritual power soared, she became the most outstanding talent of the younger generation.

Moreover, her spirit beast, the Thousand Gold Leopard, was also a combat divine beast. It was even more agile and ferocious than Li Han's elephant. It was the most suitable spirit beast for the competition.

When Li Han knew that their father had let Li Ling compete, she was anxious.

She wanted to go more than anyone else. As long as she was chosen, she could seize control of the best resources of the entire clan.

Moreover, even if she couldn't win the competition, the rewards would be very generous. She could also gain the reputation of the Li family's most outstanding junior.

She couldn't help it. She was determined to get this spot!

Li Han rushed into the clan leader's room and tried her best to fight for the chance. "Patriarch, I want to participate in the competition!"

The clan leader didn't blame Li Han for being disrespectful. He only said, "This competition is very important. The elders of the clan weighed the pros and cons."

Li Han still refused to give up.

She was once the most outstanding one among the younger generation. Why was she suddenly inferior to an illegitimate daughter?!

How could she raise her head in front of outsiders in the future?!

Seeing that Li Han was acting stubborn, the patriarch sighed and said, "If you don't want to give up, I'll give you another chance!"

When she heard that she still had a chance, Li Han's eyes lit up.

The patriarch summoned everyone in the clan to the martial arts arena and instructed his servant to bring over a pure white spirit beast.

Kong Rui stared at the spirit beast's white fur and couldn't help but sigh. What a good horse!

However, when the horse turned around, Kong Rui was surprised to see a golden horn on its head.

A unicorn?

Golden… could it be?

As expected, in the next moment, the unicorn let out a long cry and a pair of golden wings suddenly spread out on its body.

"It's really a Golden-Winged Unicorn! The Li family is really rich!" Kong Rui muttered to herself.

Unicorns had always been rare. Among the five major clans, only a few elders had them.

As for the Golden-Winged Unicorn, it was even rarer. It was probably hard to find a second one among the five families!

However, why did he bring this treasure out at this time?

Kong Rui was puzzled when she heard someone call Li Ling's name.

Since Kong Rui had obtained the right to enter the competition tomorrow, she didn't want to cause any more trouble. She followed the rules of the Li family and bowed to the patriarch and elders.

The patriarch nodded in satisfaction and called Li Han over.

The patriarch said to the two of them, "The Golden-Winged Unicorn is the guardian beast of our family. Let it confirm the candidate for tomorrow's competition!"

Dissatisfied with this arrangement, Kong Rui frowned slightly.

However, the clan leader immediately said, "You will enter the arena on your mounts. This unicorn is the mount you will be riding on that day. Whoever it chooses will participate in the empire's spirit beast competition."
