When he was still young and unable to break free from his parents' control, he also used this expression to please and paralyze his parents.

Yekos and he are the same kind of people, they both want to kill their own fathers.

Following the priest's instructions, the Marsh God forced Chen Xi and the other man to sit on the chairs in the middle of the venue.

The chair legs and armrests are all equipped with shiny chains, which are specially used to restrain children's movements.

Applesauce is just timid, not stupid.

The instinct for survival overcame her fear of the priest, and she stood beside the chair and refused to sit down.

Chen Xi didn't move either.

The priest had a sarcastic smile on his face, and his cold gaze wandered over the two of them, finally landing on Chen Xi's face.

"I know your father, young master. We both studied at the Imperial Academy, but his health was always poor, so he couldn't study magic or combat. He majored in literature and history."

"I didn't study any subjects because I wasn't considered a student at the Imperial College. I worked as a waiter in the cafeteria there, and I saw your father every day. He was really attractive, with his snow-white hair and golden eyes."

Chen Xi didn't understand what he meant and stood behind the chair without saying a word.

The priest took out a badge from his pocket. The badge was made of gold and had the Chenxi family crest printed on it.

"Guess where this came from? I got it from your father's dead body. Don't look at me like that, I'm not gay, I'm just a businessman. I'm not interested in your father's, but there are people who are."

"To be more precise, I'm interested in your family's rare eye and hair colors. Those young nobles in this small town have lived in luxury since childhood. They are a bunch of good-for-nothings abandoned by their families, with nothing to do but eat, drink, and have fun."

The priest clapped his hands, and a tightly closed iron door slowly opened below the audience seats not far away.

"Your father was very handsome and valuable, and many people wanted to buy him. But they not only forced him to death, but also cut up his body and fed it to the dogs."

Yu Tong had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Two long-haired nuns walked out of the iron gate, and together they lifted something the size of an adult, covered with a white cloth.

The nuns carried the things to the priest. The middle-aged man raised his hand and pulled open the white cloth, and the things inside came into view.

He was a naked man with black stitches all over his body. His skin was bloodless, his golden eyes were slightly drooping, and his long pure white hair was draped behind him.

The man looked about 70% similar to Chen Xi. One could tell at a glance that they were related.

The normally calm villain was so angry that his eyes turned red. If the Fairy Godmother hadn't grabbed his waist, he would have rushed forward.

Looking at the priest who was still chattering, Yu Tong frowned suspiciously.

He could see that the priest was deliberately trying to provoke Chen Xi, but he didn't understand why he was doing that.

As Brother Xiaochen became more and more excited, Yu Tong's little wings began to glow faintly.

When a strong desire arises in the heart of a believer, his god can gain the power of faith from it.

Why does the priest's actions seem to be giving him a buff?

Could it be that the phoenix has some special properties that are little known to the public?

The system's "fuck" sound interrupted Yu Tong's thoughts.

The white-haired man, who was originally mistaken for a corpse by several people, suddenly moved his eyes.

He raised his head and looked at Chen Xi, an expression of disbelief appearing on his pale face, "Xiao Xi?"

Chen Xi froze.

The man struggled to pull the corners of his mouth, but only revealed a tired and stiff smile.

The priest roughly grabbed the man's long hair and said, "I heard that your father was murdered, so I rushed over and bought his body. After making it into a puppet, I summoned his soul from Hell and sealed it in this body."

"Are you happy that your father is still alive? Unfortunately, he has been reserved by a collector. You can have a brief reunion tonight, but in a few days he..."

Before the priest finished speaking, Yu Tong's body suddenly became bright.

His entire body radiated a dazzling golden light, which was even brighter than the intensity of sunlight, like a miniature version of the sun.

Perhaps because he had been made into this state for some time, Chen Xi's father remained relatively calm.

He looked at his son, whose face was red with anger, and then at the little chicken lantern above his head. The man pursed his pale lips and said hesitantly, "Phoenix?"

Chen Xi nodded.

The white-haired man pondered for a moment, his eyes suddenly becoming sharp, "After being reborn from the ashes, the Phoenix cub will..."

Before he could finish his words, the priest gagged him with a cloth. Two nuns carried him and quickly ran back to the iron gate.

The sudden change made Chen Xi and Yu Tong both stunned.

The next second, a thought arose in both of their minds at the same time.

Some gods have IQs similar to humans, have their own thoughts and emotions, and have extremely close relationships with believers.

To vent Lily's anger, the little bear warrior ran out to avenge her mother's tragic death. The water drop warrior would stay where the little boy died, imagining that he would come back to find it.

The vine fairy godmother knew her followers were timid, so if Applesauce shivered, she would immediately wrap her in a cocoon.

Since the priest wanted to take the phoenix for himself, how could he dare to kill his believers in front of him and dig out Chen Xi's eyes?

Unless he has a way to make the Phoenix forget his believers.

What Chen Xi's father wanted to say was that the Phoenix cub would forget everything before its rebirth after being reborn, and would need to cultivate new emotions. If the priest caught the opportunity, Chen Xi would lose his god.

This would explain why the priest had been irritating Chen Xi. He needed to confirm his suspicions by observing the changes in the chicken.

Once Yu Tong really shows the characteristics of the phoenix, he will aim at Yu Tong during the battle and use fire magic exclusively.

As long as he could light the chicken, his plan for the day would be accomplished.
