Phoenix waved his hand and walked straight into the room.

His face paled at once as soon as he entered the room. He could feel his footsteps getting light, so he stumbled to a table. He couldn't hold himself up anymore, dropping himself onto the couch. At this moment, Matthew was sitting in the room. When he saw that, his expression changed immediately, and he ran over to Phoenix in a hurry.

He checked Phoenix's pulse first, then opened his eyelids. Just then, he saw something wriggling in his eyes.

With a frown, he asked, "Did you meet Lord Voodo?"

Phoenix nodded weakly.

Beside him, the crown prince was anxious as he asked, "Matty, how's Uncle Elio?"

"With his injury, it's already a miracle for him to come back alive! Since I'm here, he will be fine for sure," Matthew answered.

As he said that, he took out a few pills and put them into Phoenix's mouth.

Then, he grabbed his silver needles and jabbed nineteen of them into Phoenix's body.

Instantly, Phoenix's face became red. Following that, there was a twitch in his throat before he vomited out a pool of blood. Within the blood, there was a blood clot wriggling on the floor. "What's that?" The crown prince was startled.

"That's a centipede," Matthew answered.

When the crown prince heard that, his expression changed immediately. "A centipede? Did Lord Voodoo attack Uncle Elio? How is that possible? With Uncle Elio's ability, the centipede shouldn't hurt him!" "Usually, the centipede wouldn't be able to hurt your Uncle Elio. But if he was injured, this centipede would've been able to take that advantage to attack him," Matthew explained.

The crown prince was stunned. "El-How could Uncle Elio be injured?!"

Matthew didn't say anything, but he turned to look at Phoenix and said, "Mr. Phoenix, who did you meet?"

At this moment, Phoenix was looking better. He then sighed and said in a low voice, "It's Raven Cumbat."

When the crown prince heard that, he jumped up at once. "R-Raven?! Why is he here?"

Likewise, Matthew felt his heart pounding as well; he had heard of Raven's name before.

Raven was born in Centourial and was named side-by-side with Phoenix-Phoenix of the South and Raven of the North.

The Raven of the North was the same Raven from Centourial. Seeing how he was named side-by-side with Phoenix, his ability was about the same as Phoenix's.

At this moment, Phoenix had already regained some strength, so he sat himself up and explained, "I received news that Raven entered Stonedale this morning. Hence, I came to Stonedale this time to prevent him from stirring up trouble in the South."

"While I was at the press conference, I received news that he was in Granville, so I quickly left to stop him. However, I didn't know that he had colluded with Lord Voodoo."

"Our abilities have always been rivaled, and after our previous battles, we still couldn't decide on the winner.

But this time, with Lord Voodoo distracting me on the side, I was heavily injured by Raven. Then, Lord Voodoo took the opportunity to curse me. Fortunately, I was in the South, and our people rushed there just in time. Otherwise, I'd be dead by now!"

When the crown prince heard that, shock crawled all over his face. He then said in a trembling voice, "Uncle Elio, d-don't risk your life anymore! This is the South, and we should let Master Levi handle this kind of matter. Should I call Master Levi now and ask him to get rid of Raven?"

Phoenix waved his hand. "There's no need for that. Even though I'm severely injured, Raven wasn't all well either. He was seriously hurt as well. He wouldn't be able to do anything in the meantime." "Really?" The crown prince was delighted at once. "I'll send people to go after him now!"

Hearing that, Phoenix shook his head. "Your people can't kill him. By the way, Matthew, I came here to remind you to be extra careful this time. I suspect that Raven is here for you!"
