Chapter 224: The Way to Bring Freak Back to Life (1)
“Big Sister, are you looking for me?” Leng Ruoxue looked at Feng Ling’er doubtfully.
“Little Sister Ruoxue, Royal Father wants to see you,” Feng Ling’er said anxiously.
“Oh? What is it?” Leng Ruoxue was surprised. Is Feng Zhan finally going to reveal his purpose?
“I’m not sure either. Royal Father refuses to tell me,” Feng Ling’er said helplessly. This was why she was so anxious!
“Then take me to see the Phoenix King, Big Sister!” Leng Ruoxue frowned slightly. Feng Zhan was really mysterious. He didn’t even tell his daughter.
“Okay, let’s go!” Feng Ling’er pulled Leng Ruoxue toward the Phoenix King’s resting palace.
“Royal Father, Little Sister Ruoxue is here,” Feng Ling’er whispered outside the palace when they arrived at the entrance.
“Let Miss Leng in!” The Phoenix King’s elegant voice came from outside.
“Little Sister Ruoxue, go in by yourself. Big Sister won’t accompany you,” Feng Ling’er said meaningfully. Her father wanted to see Ruoxue, so she wouldn’t be a third wheel.
“Okay.” Leng Ruoxue pushed open the palace door and walked in directly.
The Phoenix King’s resting palace looked like an enormous sycamore tree from the outside, but it was a completely different world inside.
After entering the Phoenix King’s resting palace, Leng Ruoxue looked up slightly. The decorations here were very similar to a human’s room. It was mainly red with a golden background, and there were many phoenix totems on the walls and pillars.
“Miss Leng.” Feng Zhan walked out of the inner room and blocked Leng Ruoxue with his tall body.
“Hello, Phoenix King,” Leng Ruoxue greeted politely.
“Miss Leng, you broke through. Congratulations.” Feng Zhan’s dark red phoenix eyes sized Leng Ruoxue up.
Leng Ruoxue nodded slightly and then asked, “May I ask why you are looking for Ruoxue, Phoenix King?”
“Miss Leng, please sit. I’ll tell you a story.” Feng Zhan pointed at a chair not far away.
“Tell me a story?” Leng Ruoxue sat down in the chair and looked at Feng Zhan in bewilderment. She couldn’t help wondering what the Phoenix King was up to. Did he look for her so frantically just to tell her a story?
“Yes, a very important story.” Feng Zhan sighed softly and helplessly.
“Oh, please start then, Phoenix King!” Leng Ruoxue said impatiently. She was not very interested in the Phoenix King’s story, but she very much wanted to know Feng Zhan’s purpose.
“It seems like Miss Leng is still an impatient person,” Feng Zhan teased with a smile.
“Yes, my companion is still with the Dragon clan. I’m very worried,” Leng Ruoxue explained. What she implied was that he should quickly tell her his purpose. After that, she would go and save someone.
“Don’t worry, Miss Leng. Your friend’s life is not in danger in the Dragon clan,” Feng Zhan said with confidence, his face full of mystery.
“I’m afraid he will be tortured,” Leng Ruoxue said. Of course, she knew that Feng Da’s life wouldn’t be in danger. After all, Feng Da had a dragon as his contract beast. If the Dragon clan wanted to kill Feng Da, it was equivalent to killing one of their own. This wasn’t something the Dragon clan, who claimed to be the most united, would do.
“I’m afraid physical pain is unavoidable,” Feng Zhan said honestly.
“So, Phoenix King, just tell me directly. Stop keeping me in suspense,” Leng Ruoxue said a little impatiently.
“Alright. Actually, I hope Miss Leng can stay in the Phoenix clan,” Feng Zhan said, shocking her.
“What?” Leng Ruoxue asked uncertainly. Uh, did I hear right?
“I hope Miss Leng can stay with us,” Feng Zhan repeated patiently, his dark red phoenix eyes full of anticipation.
“I’m sorry, but that’s unlikely. I still have important things to do. I can’t stay in the same place forever,” Leng Ruoxue explained implicitly. Although she didn’t know why the Phoenix King said that, she didn’t want to anger Feng Zhan, lest he destroyed all of them in a fit of anger.
“Miss Leng, if you are willing to stay in the Phoenix clan, you will be the king of the Phoenix clan from now on, and you can choose any handsome man in our Phoenix clan.” Feng Zhan threw out a big bait. He believed that no one could refuse such a generous offer.
Leng Ruoxue’s face darkened, and she was at a loss for words. What does the Phoenix King mean? I can choose any handsome man I want? Do I look like a pervert?
The little silver mink, who had been acting as a pet in Leng Ruoxue’s arms, heard what Feng Zhan said and hated him! Damn it. He could understand wanting to keep Xue’er in the Phoenix clan, but he couldn’t tolerate the idea of giving her a man of the Phoenix clan. Hmph! Xue’er can only be mine!
“What do you think, Miss Leng?” Feng Zhan couldn’t help asking when he saw Leng Ruoxue not responding for a long time.
“I appreciate your kindness, Phoenix King. But I really can’t stay in the Phoenix clan. Erm, as for the handsome man, I think I should leave him to the women of the Phoenix clan!” Leng Ruoxue replied after choosing her words carefully for some time.
“Miss Leng, don’t make your decision too hastily. Let me finish telling you the story!” Feng Zhan said leisurely and sighed softly. At first, he thought that his bait would be enough to attract Leng Ruoxue, but she unexpectedly remained unmoved. He had no choice but to tell her honestly in hopes of convincing her. To be honest, he really didn’t want to tell anyone about it if possible. After all, it was considered a humiliation to the Phoenix clan.
“Okay. Pray tell, Phoenix King!” Leng Ruoxue urged.
“Miss Leng, actually, our Phoenix clan doesn’t belong to this world. There are many spirit beasts in this world that didn’t once belong here. We came from an extremely distant place. That place is a holy land that all humans and beasts have yearned for for a long time,” Feng Zhan said softly, as if he had fallen into a trance, lost in his memories.
“Then why are you here?” Leng Ruoxue didn’t deny that the Phoenix King’s words piqued her curiosity. Seems like Feng Zhan really has a secret.
“That’s because our Phoenix clan, the Dragon clan, and even other beasts were exiled here after a great war one hundred thousand years ago,” Feng Zhan explained with deep pain in his eyes.
