“Feng Qing’an!”
The young girl Nange dipped her feet into the Soul Cleansing Spring, glancing toward the dark gap leading to the mortal world, her eyes revealing a hint of unwillingness and anxiety. This was because, just now, her older sister had returned.
Before Nange had met Feng Qing’an, her sister’s return would always bring her joy, and she was full of anticipation for her sister’s next departure. But now, things were different.
She no longer held any expectation for her sister’s departure; her sister’s visits became more and more frequent, and every time, she merely cast a casual glance at Nange before leaving for the mortal world again.
Therefore, at her sister’s arrival, Nange would no longer put on her usual smiles, and she was filled with sorrow instead. After her sister left for the mortal world, she was not allowed to follow. She could only stay behind in the ethereal darkness, accompanied by loneliness.
It was the same that night. She was once again forbidden from venturing into the mortal world and was forced to stay by the Soul Cleansing Spring, awaiting her sister’s return. As for what her sister was doing in the mortal world, Nange was very clear about that.
The wait was always so long and unbearably tough that Nange nearly lost her perception of time.
However, before the sun started to rise, she finally saw her sister returning from the mortal world. As expected, she could sense a strong aura of Feng Qing’an emanating from her sister, particularly noticeable at her vermilion lips.
Her sister was unashamed of her actions. She didn’t even bother to hide it in front of Nange, flaunting it all.
“Sis, how does Feng Qing’an taste?”
Looking up at her sister who was about to leave, Nange stirred the spring water with her feet, and asked nonchalantly.
“Deliciously tender!”
Donghuang was pondering how to find a suitable storage treasure for Feng Qing’an. If her Ghost Nation didn’t have it, then which other ghost kings had it and from whom she should snatch it. However, she replied subconsciously when heard the question.
“Seems like Feng Qing’an satisfied you, sis!”
Nange looked up at her sister who had turned around to look at her, her voice soft and obedient, showing not the slightest sign of complaint.
“Quite naturally, yes!”
Donghuang looked at her sister as she replied matter-of-factly, showing no signs of guilt.
“But he’s mine!”
The girl’s voice was soft but resilient. Donghuang laughed when she heard this, mocking her sister’s naiveté and recklessness for making such a bold claim.
“Nange, do not say that again. Feng Qing’an is not yours. He doesn’t belong to anyone!”
This was a heartfelt advice from a sister. Donghuang didn’t think neither she nor Nange could keep up with the reincarnated fairy monarch. If they could accompany him for a period of time, it would already be a tremendous opportunity and luck against the natural order.
“Your encounter with him is your fortune, but you shouldn’t harbor such delusions. You’re not eligible!”
However, Nange took her sister’s advice very differently. She stared at her sister for the first time and spoke her mind,
“I will be eligible.”
“Then strive in your cultivation, catch up to me, walk beside me, then surpass me. I’m looking forward to seeing how far you can go, my dear sister!” Donghuang smirked and turned to leave.
She Imew Nange had misunderstood something, but she had no intention to explain earnestly. Actions speak louder than words. There was no need to expend effort to explain.
Being ignorant could also be a good thingu If Nange were to learn everything now, she might not still hold such spirit and fighting will.
There was no need to let her confront harsh realities too soon. It would be nice to let her remain naive and romantic. As a sister, Donghuang couldn’t bear to shatter her illusions prematurely.
“I will surpass you, sis!”
The ignorant girl issued a declaration to her sister.
“Okay, I’ll be waiting!”
Donghuang waved her hand without turning back.
“Humph!”
The girl watched her sister depart, spreading her phoenix wings, and gave a disgruntled hum. She then jumped out of the spring and sprinted towards the mortal world. The sun was yet to rise, so she could stay there for a while longer.
Chirp! Chirp!
In the bedroom still brimming with a faint fragrance, a little firebird returned and saw an ice-blue phoenix on Feng Qing’an’s chest. It chirped unhappily. It felt as if its rightful nest had been taken away, even though it didn’t technically have a nest.
“What’s there to be unhappy about? It’s just a seal, it doesn’t even have its own
spiritual consciousness!”
Feng Qing’an, who could easily decipher the firebird’s chirps, explained with a wry smile.
The image of the ice-blue phoenix was merely the outward manifestation of this secret imprint. It didn’t signify anything, and didn’t have any spirit, let alone qualify as a livingspirit.
Chirp! Chirp!
The firebird was not satisfied with Feng Qing’an’s explanation. Its hostile gaze focused on the ice-blue phoenix flitting about on Feng Qing’an, determined to chase this intruder who had stealthily occupied its nest.
“Come in. If not, you can stay outside!”
Feng Qing’an didn’t have much patience for this little bird. It was already a great kindness that he could coax it. He wouldn’t spoil it.
Chirp! Chirp!
Upon hearing this, the firebird immediately flapped its wings and turned into a trail of fire, rushing into Feng Qing’an’s body.
It tried to chase the ice-blue phoenix, and during the chase, the little bird found out that the phoenix seemed to be gathering the essence that was constantly but negligibly leaking inside Feng Qing’an’s body..
