Transmigrating into a Demon Spirit to Blow up the Entire World-Chapter 163: Demon Emperor’s Little Phoenix 15
Chapter 163: Demon Emperor’s Little Phoenix 15
In front, Mao Shu was still muttering to himself, “He actually used his heart to save you…… he actually used his heart to save you……”
The two-life flower is a life-for-a-life exchange between two people, who were first-degree relatives, transferring all the person’s magic power and vital force to the other person. Since the two-life flowers in An Ying’s body had already bloomed, it means that both his magic power and vital force had already been given to Cang Yi. In this case, it would’ve been completely impossible for him to survive, no matter how excellent his cultivation base is.
But now, not only is An Ying alive and well, but he had also acquired that more than 10,000 years worth of cultivation existing in Cang Yi’s spirit. The only possible explanation is, someone had saved him with their ability to resurrect people from the dead.
At that time, the Little Phoenix is the only one, who accompanied An Ying to the Fantasy Sea, and in the whole world, it is also only the Little Phoenix, who has the ability to resurrect people from the dead. Although, the usage of such ability would inevitably send shivers to the listeners. Taking the heart out as a material, and refine it into a pill, even the closest of people might not be willing to make this kind of sacrifice. Moreover, the significance of An Ying being brought back to life by the Little Phoenix was self-evident. Because of the backlash of the two-life flowers, Cang Yi’s cultivation was absorbed by An Ying instead. Once the dead body loses the accumulated cultivation, the ending of being scattered to ashes and dispersed to smoke is inevitable.
There are three pains in life: Pain in meeting people one dislikes, pain in parting with a loved one, and the pain of not getting what one seeks. The most painful among them is the pain of not getting what one seeks. Mao Shu has been deeply stuck in this kind of pain since thousands of years ago and was unable to extricate himself, and had thus, became even more mad at this moment. But An Ying was in even more pain than him, because the lost after gaining, is a hundred times heavier than the shock and despair brought about by having never owned it.
He didn’t know until now that, he had actually obtained the wholehearted affection of the Little Phoenix. Although the Little Phoenix didn’t say anything, yet he had actually dug out his heart without the slightest hesitation. But this incomparably sincere affection was actually destroyed by him with his own hands due to the unexpected turn of events, and could never be regained.
The pain rapidly ballooned inside An Ying, leaving him without energy to care about the already maddened Mao Shu, nor even have the spare strength to hate the other, as his thoughts were all of the Little Phoenix.
Thinking back to each and every move made, as well as every word and sentence spoken by the Little Phoenix. The more he recalls, the more he felt the irrepressible severe pain conquer every inch of flesh and blood from head to toe, feeling like his bones and blood were being bitten to ashes. He wished he could go back to the past, to cut off his hand, that pushed away the Little Phoenix to help Mao Shu, and cut off the tongue that demanded the heart’s blood from the Little Phoenix.
He’ll never be able to forgive himself.
An Ying pressed his chest and took a big gasp of breath. A long time passed before he gradually regained his senses, he then repeatedly mumbled the Little Phoenix’s name while he subconsciously stood up to look for the Little Phoenix. He wants to see him, he still has a lot of things to explain to him, and many words to say to beg for his forgiveness. He won’t mind even if the Little Phoenix wants him to dig out his heart as well. It doesn’t matter if he’s too angry to see him, he can stay and guard outside the Qi Chen Palace every day and night, even if it was for a lifetime.
In any event, when An Ying followed the Little Phoenix and lived for more than half a year in the Heavenly Realm, he had gone in and out a number of times, that the guards at the entrance of the Heavenly Realm did not block his way, until he eventually arrived at the front door of the Qi Chen Palace as he wanted to.
However, after having waited for a long time, not a shadow of the Little Phoenix could be seen. Only through the resentful looking Qing Luan did he learn that, the Little Phoenix had taken the initiative to confess the sin of mismanaging the Zhao Huo decree in the court’s meeting, and had already severed both the emotion and wisdom root in half. Only then did he realize that, the Little Phoenix had stuffed the token into his hand, but the next news that followed completely devastated him, — The Little Phoenix actually chose Nirvana.
The place whence one comes from, and whence one returns to. The Phoenix is born in Yu Yuan, and the raging flame’s of Nirvana is also in Yu Yuan. The Little Phoenix has always handled things directly and efficiently. On the same day, after the discussion with the Heavenly Emperor, he then directly proceeded to the Yu Yuan.
Because he had an indescribable intuition. He felt the impending arrival of the Zhao Huo decree’s backlash, so there wasn’t any time to hesitate or wait any longer. He could still remember when someone told him to never ignore his intuition during his younger years, because that might be life warning you.
The Little Phoenix stood at the edge of Yu Yuan with both arms stretched wide open, then leaned back. To the flames, which the people around the world finds incredibly hot, is as comfortable and pleasant as a mother’s nest to him. He could hear the whistling wind by his ears, as the view of the clouds in the sky grew more and more distant. He suddenly felt his mood become lighter and more at ease than ever before.
The feeling of flying is always so beautiful.
As a Phoenix, he should fly freely in the nine heavens, completely unrestrained by anything.
An Ying heard the toll of the bell coming from the Yu Yuan, and completely froze on the spot. Yu Yuan is the exclusive holy land of the Phoenix clan, and what the Yu Yuan’s bell represents was known to all. Qing Luan, who also heard the ring of the bell wanted to punch An Ying under incredible grief, but also froze in place in the end.
Not because An Ying’s cultivation base was slightly higher than the Heavenly Emperor, but because of the aura of despair exuding from him. There weren’t any tears in An Ying’s face, but Qing Luan could tell that he was crying. Those fierce chillness was nowhere to be found. Just by standing there, can make people feel the deep pain.
The emptiness was everywhere. The lonesome An Ying walks on the road. No one will softly speak while lean on his back again, no one to do this and that in both a domineering and arrogant manner, no one’s expression that can make him feel happy, and no one that can make all his troubles disappear with a smile.
There are many roads up ahead, there are also many roads in one’s lifetime, but the only road An Ying wants to walk on is, that road accompanied by the Little Phoenix. Without the Little Phoenix, the road he walks on will only be muddy and dark without a way out.
He has now lost his way. Standing in this deserted wilderness, the entire place feels empty, regardless of whether he stops or walks, or even proceeds to someplace else.
The pain continued to whip his body like a long whip covered with thorns. He could hear a voice by his ear, but had completely no idea, who was talking with whom: “Tong Tong…… Tong Tong…… quickly come back……”
But the Little Phoenix won’t come back. He didn’t want him anymore, told him that they will never see each other again, and jumped into the Yu Yuan that could burn everything.
There is nothing in this world that can torture An Ying more than this situation.
It was like the death of a thousand cuts, cutting him piece by piece.
In a trance, he seemed to returned to the tree house, where they lived together. The interior of the house was unexpectedly brightly lit, in addition to the aroma of food. He dazedly sat in the dining room, and looked at the table full of food, there was also a fruit porridge, which the Little Phoenix only learned to cook not long ago. The Little Phoenix’s figure appeared before him afterwards, still with that dazzling red clothes and dazzling smile on his face, and he, just looked at him, and was unable to say a single word.
“Try the porridge. It took me quite some time to make it.”
“……”
“Right, there’s also a fruit wine here. Bai Qi gave it to me.”
“……”
The youth slowly swayed in front of An Ying as he spoke, with his golden pupils looked at An Ying, exactly like before. An Ying subconsciously reached for the Little Phoenix’s shoulder to give him a hug, but immediately rushed into empty air. Looking up again, the place was still the same dark and empty wilderness.
How beautiful the fantasy is, how bleakly cold the reality is.
Moreover, the Little Phoenix’s memory went back to Nirvana before silently stopping. At this very moment, when his memory and magic power had completely returned to him, he looked at the huge Soaring Serpent, who was cut in a sorry figure because of colliding into the enchantment of the Netherworld. All traces of emotions in his eyes gradually disappeared. In the end, the only thing left behind was coldness.
Without any day or night, the skies in the Netherworld always maintains a slightly bright scene, which actually seems to be a bit as cool as the water at night. The gentle moonlight was like a mist woven from silver yarn, sprinkling a faint luminosity upon each and every person, reflecting the dazzling moonlight. But was completely unable to reach the coldness of the Little Phoenix’s eyes.
The Soaring Serpent immediately transformed into a human, and fixedly looked at the eyes of the Little Phoenix. The Little Phoenix’s eyes were so indifferent, that it gave An Ying an illusion, as if he was just an unknown stranger to Little Phoenix.
