“Swish swish!”

Three figures arrived like a gust of wind, standing in front of the fire pit, almost dragging Si Mubei into it.

Fortunately, his high heels were high enough and the heels were thin enough to be firmly planted in the ground, making him as stable as Mount Tai, so he wasn't carried into the pit by these three people who were as fast as the wind.

“Not even eighty-one days, only 79 days.” Bo Jichen stared at the extinguished pit, filled with ashes that were still smoldering, obscuring everything: “So…”

"So the rebirth failed?" Shu Xubai continued, "Jiang Si died too?"

With a bang.

As soon as he finished speaking, he was kicked to the ground.

Agares, who had kicked him, looked as if covered by frost. He lowered his leg expressionlessly and offered a completely insincere apology that was infuriating: "I'm sorry, Lord Shu Xubai, my foot slipped."

Shu Xubai braced himself on the ground with both hands and gritted his teeth, saying, "It's alright, I won't hold it against you."

If you're not as skilled as someone else, it's only right that you get kicked.

After Jiang Si comes out, treat his mental strength, and he will kick Agares into the wall so hard that he can't be pried out.

Agares, with a cold and expressionless face, lifted and stomped his military boot on the back of Shu Xubai's hand that was supporting him on the ground, pressing down hard: "Thank you for your generosity, Your Excellency Shu Xubai. I will remember your kindness."

Shu Xubai's fair, jade-like hand was instantly crushed and bled profusely.

His lips twitched.

That damned bastard, who's over 3,000 years younger than him, has been torturing him every single day for the past 79 days. It's like he can't eat, can't sleep, and can't live without torturing him.

"So, like a withered tree sprouting new leaves in spring, the phoenix has successfully risen from the ashes." Bo Jichen said excitedly, "My precious eldest daughter is still alive, she is still alive."

Upon hearing his teacher's words, Agares, who was stepping on Shu Xubai's hand, quickly abandoned Shu Xubai and came to the pit. He saw a sycamore tree, about the thickness of a little finger, growing in the pit.

Two tender leaves on the sycamore tree were moving volcanically in the pit without any wind.

Agareth's dark eyes were fixed on the pit, unblinking.

The small sycamore tree in the pit grew rapidly to the naked eye, towering over the pit. Originally only as thick as a little finger, it has now become as thick as a wrist, with very lush leaves.

Suddenly.

With a bang.

A slender, jade-like hand emerged from the ashes in the pit.

The people on the edge of the pit immediately held their breath and stared.

The ashes in the pit made a cracking sound, and a hand appeared, followed by a second hand, then a foot, then a calf and a thigh, then a head. It was... Jiu Feng.

The phoenix appeared in the pit, pure white as jade and completely naked. Only her most intimate parts were covered by ash, and her hair cascaded down her bare back like a waterfall.

"kid……"

Shu Xubai couldn't help but let out a cry.

Sitting up in the pit, Jiu Feng heard the call and raised her head slightly. She looked at Shu Xu Bai with a slight confusion, then opened her bare, smooth arms to Shu Xu Bai, who was squatting on the pit. Pure and innocent, like a blank sheet of paper, she called out with dependence, "Bai Bai, hug me!"

"Cough cough!"

"Cough cough!"

Shu Xubai and Bo Jichen coughed at the same time.

Agares' brows furrowed deeply as he stared into the pit, his eyes gradually turning red. His hands clenched into fists, making a cracking sound.

Hearing them cough from below, Jiufeng turned her head away, not even glancing at Bo Jichen, her eyes only on Shu Xubai, and called out again, "Baibai, hug me!"

Shu Xubai stopped coughing and squinted at Jiufeng for a moment, trying to see something in his innocent eyes, but he saw nothing but his own reflection.

With a hint of frustration, Shu Xubai retrieved a white robe from his spatial storage, jumped down into the pit, put the robe on Jiufeng, and brought him up.

Jiufeng landed barefoot, pulled her feet back slightly, and then grabbed Shu Xu's white sleeve, looking aggrieved and pitiful, "Bai Bai, my feet are cold and hurt."

Shu Xubai looked down and saw that his snow-white feet, with veins visible, had been cut and bleeding from tiny pebbles on the ground.

Shu Xubai looked at the flowing blood and involuntarily swallowed. He... he was hungry, very, very hungry, and wanted to drink blood.

"Do you still recognize who I am?" Bo Jichen stepped sideways and stood in front of Jiu Feng, casually flicking the pink heart-shaped gem that dangled from the back of her head.

A look of confusion returned to Jiu Feng's eyes. After a moment of confusion, he shook his head at Bo Jichen. "I don't know you. Who are you?"

Bo Jichen's purple eyes scrutinized him.

The connection between them was no longer unilaterally severed by him, but unilaterally severed by both sides. He also severed it on his end, cutting off the contractual connection with him.

And he didn't know him.

It doesn't seem fake.

so…

The legend of the phoenix rising from the ashes is true.

He was reborn from the ashes.

Forget everything that happened?

But that's not right.

He also knew Shu Xubai.

Shu Xubai was someone he knew before.

If he had amnesia and was reborn, he shouldn't remember Shu Xubai.

What exactly happened?

"I asked you who you are, but you won't tell me. You're blocking my way. Get out of my way." Jiufeng had no confidence at all. Her voice was incredibly soft. She seemed fierce, but she didn't have any strength at all.

Bo Jichen did not move and remained standing in front of him.

Jiufeng became reserved and uneasy. He pulled his wide white robe tighter, and when the person in front of him didn't move, he carefully moved aside, past him, lifted his bare feet, and walked to Shu Xubai, gazing at him expectantly: "Bai Bai, Bai Bai..."

Shu Xubai took a deep breath, exhaled, and repeated this three times. He then grabbed Jiu Feng's wrist and pulled hard, his two sharp teeth almost popping out: "Little kid, what tricks are you playing now? Aren't you afraid of dying?"

Jiufeng trembled at his sinister voice, and stammered, "Bai...Bai...Bai, my foot hurts, my foot is cut and bleeding."

Shu Xubai felt as if a mouthful of blood was stuck in his throat, unable to swallow it or gulp it down. He had no choice but to take out his own shoes from his spatial storage and throw his socks on the ground: "Take this."

Jiufeng revealed a simple, shy, cautious, and harmless smile, reached out and tugged at Shu Xubai's sleeve, and sweetly called out as if it were the most natural thing in the world: "Bai Bai, put on my shoes and my socks!"
