The feathers left behind by a dead Heaven-Soaring Phoenix amount to only three, yet there are twelve in the box, equivalent to four Heaven-Soaring Phoenixes.
"How is it, you two?" Steward Wan asked after the two finished their examination.
"Heavenly Inquiry Tower truly lives up to its name," the man in black holding the Heaven-Soaring Phoenix Feathers whispered with a laugh. "These twelve feathers must have been freshly plucked from the body of a Heaven-Soaring Phoenix."
The implication being, these twelve Heaven-Soaring Phoenix Feathers were obtained by the Heavenly Inquiry Tower from the national beast of Jing Yue Kingdom.
"Heh, once we accept a deposit at the Heavenly Inquiry Tower, we fulfill the demand."
The two men in black wasted no more words, kept the treasures safely, and then left.
Steward Wan then went to the quiet courtyard at the back of the Heavenly Inquiry Tower.
