Chapter 28: Love

Inside a closed cave, the stone walls were a deep blood red, and winding red vines densely covered the red stone walls. For a moment, it was impossible to tell the difference between the vines and the stone walls.

On the ground were the fiery red Flame-Quenching Plants. Different from the Smoke-Quenching Plants outside, these should be called Flame-Quenching Flowers because nearly half of the Flame-Quenching Plants had bloomed bright red flowers.

Her flowers are like long lines put together, somewhat like chrysanthemums.

Jiang Zhi woke up in this sea of ​​flowers.

The khaki clothes she was wearing had long been burned to ashes by the phoenix eggs, leaving only a set of white inner garments on her body.

She took out the red suit from the bracelet and put it on.

"Complete the mission of sacrificing for the heroine's phoenix nirvana rebirth, and be rewarded with a chance to draw a lottery."

"Congratulations to the host for completing five story missions. Reward: A random item will drop from the designated character."

Jiang Zhi just raised his eyes and looked in one direction.

There is no plot about her falling. We only know that in the plot from the heroine's perspective, she survived, but after returning, she had turned evil and started targeting the heroine.

The direction Jiang Zhi was looking in was a rock wall that was not covered with vines, which seemed a little abnormal.

She was the only one left in the empty space, and she didn't know whether the others were dead or not.

"System, aren't you going to explain?" Jiang Zhi said as he walked towards the stone wall.

"This is an evil formation for rebirth. Your powerful beast essence has kept you alive, but because of this evil formation of sacrifice, your beast essence has been infected. From now on, the favored ones of the contract will become manic and evil, and even you yourself will inevitably become manic and vicious."

“However, this would only happen without this system.”

"Your beast essence is fine now. If you still want to improve the ability of your beast essence, you are welcome to continue drawing lots."

Jiang Zhi raised his eyebrows slightly: "Got it."

She walked to the stone wall and saw clearly what was inside.

A phoenix egg, exactly the same as the one seen above, but the color of this phoenix egg has become dull.

Jiang Zhi paused, and a guess came to his mind.

Hearing footsteps behind her, she looked back warily.

'Xie Yu? Why did he come down?'

Xie Yu ignored Jiang Zhi and walked to Jiang Zhi's side, or to be exact, to the front of the stone wall. He stretched out his hand, but before he could move, his wrist was grabbed by someone.

He looked at Jiang Zhi expressionlessly, without saying anything, but clearly asked her to let go.

Jiang Zhi immediately let go of his hand when he looked over. The boy was a head taller than her, so she had to look up at him. She said calmly, "Xie Yu, what are you going to do?"

'This should be a real phoenix egg, but it is dying.'

"Xie Yu is here, could this phoenix egg still have value?"

"Oh no! If he were to snatch it from me, I would definitely not be able to win now."

Xie Yu's eyes moved slightly and fell on Jiang Zhi's scarlet lips. They were very red and beautiful. Her lips did not move, but he could hear her voice.

"You can't beat me." Xie Yu frowned and spoke quietly.

Jiang Zhi: ...

"Of course I know that..."

"Ding, long-term effective task: maintain Minglian's persona in front of Xie Yu."

Jiang Zhi, who had never been in love with anyone openly or secretly, remained calm when he heard the system's words. He looked at Xie Yu and said slowly, "Is it possible that you can only get a trace of residual phoenix blood by taking it away, and I can bring it back to life."

Xie Yu lowered his eyes and looked into the girl's bright and confident eyes, which were dazzling and beautiful.

It's very beautiful, like a light that will never go out, always keeping its warm temperature.

Xie Yu looked at her quietly for a while before looking away and speaking slowly: "I'll take it out for you."

After a while, the young man stretched out his hand and touched the scorching stone wall, and a misty blue and cold aura gradually spread from his skinny and slender fingers.

This is the effect of using the Ice Spirit Root.

Gradually, the young man's fingers penetrated the stone wall and took out the dull phoenix egg.

The dark red egg on the pale palm made the color contrast between the two particularly obvious.

He handed the phoenix egg to Jiang Zhi.

Jiang Zhi reached out and took the phoenix egg. His fingertips accidentally touched the boy's skin and he felt a deep chill penetrating into his bones.

It was just a momentary touch, and Jiang Zhi looked at Xie Yu with some surprise.

'It's so cold, like a corpse.'

Xie Yu frowned, put down his hand, then turned and walked away.

Jiang Zhi was looking at the egg. In fact, what she said just now was all false. Her only purpose was to get this dying phoenix egg.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

A phoenix that no longer has the ability to achieve nirvana, or a phoenix egg whose phoenix bloodline has been taken away.

Now it is no longer a phoenix, but a pheasant with a trace of phoenix blood.

Jiang Zhi didn't expect that what he complained about not long ago was the pheasant phoenix. He didn't expect that the one above was really a copycat version of the phoenix, a pheasant that turned into a phoenix through evil magic.

And she was betting that Xie Yu would give the Phoenix Egg to her because she could bring the Phoenix Egg back to life.

Because from Bai Ruanruan's perspective, we can see that the treasures that Xie Yu gave to Bai Ruanruan have been used to their greatest effect.

Or to explain it from another perspective, some opportunities are unique to certain people.

Xie Yu’s role is actually the same as that of all the sect’s disciples today, a tool to pave the way for the hostess’s favor.

Of course, it is also possible that Xie Yu has a crush on the heroine and always gives treasures to her.

Jiang Zhi remembered that the random item drop was just right for him to test the waters with Xie Yu, who had no shortage of treasures.

"A random item will be dropped on the designated character, designated Xie Yu." Jiang Zhi said to the system.

"Specified, random item dropped." The system's mechanical voice sounded, "Congratulations on receiving a pair of Xie Yu's underwear."

Jiang Zhi suddenly found a pair of white shorts in her hand. She was stunned. She was about to throw the shorts away as if her hands were on fire, but she saw Xie Yu turning his head in the distance. She then neatly put the shorts into the bracelet.

'As long as he doesn't see his panties in here, I'm not a pervert!'

In fact, Xie Yu felt a chill down his body, and the pants he was wearing were gone.

And now the person most likely to have committed the crime is the other person here.

Xie Yu stopped and walked back.

When Jiang Zhi saw Xie Yu coming back, he felt guilty for some reason.

"Give it back." Xie Yu stretched out his hand to Jiang Zhi.

"Huh? I didn't see your panties." Jiang Zhi laughed, but then he realized something was wrong.

She confessed accidentally.

"How did you steal it?" Xie Yu put down his hand and looked down at her.

'Beep - stolen. 'The system stole it.
