"Is that you, Little Blackie? You've finally shown yourself? Could it be that you've really taken care of Old White?"
The Ice Crystal Phoenix's voice couldn't hide its excitement.
Her previous arrogance was instantly replaced by gentleness and concern.
It felt like a conversation with one's closest friend.
"Hmph, with its meager abilities, it thinks it can restrain me? It's a pipe dream!"
Kurosawa smiled confidently and strode forward with an air of ease.
However, this time, the Ice Crystal Phoenix unexpectedly remained silent.
In the sky, a dazzling blue light slashed through the air like a sharp blade.
It struck the calm lake surface with perfect accuracy, creating ripples.
Then, as the blue light dissipated, a colossal figure appeared—a blue and white phoenix.
Soaring proudly in the sky, its wings spread out like the most magnificent clouds in the heavens.
It slowly circled, its sharp gaze looking down from above.
He scrutinized Kurosawa below, his eyes flashing with an undeniable chill and anger.
Phoenix was shocked to realize that her beloved best friend, the once free and unrestrained Heize, was now bound by invisible shackles.
The person who started all of this was that seemingly ordinary man.
How can an ordinary man control the ancient ferocious beast, Kurosawa?
Besides being handsome and physically strong, what other special skills does he have?
"Withstand her attacks! This is your test!"
Kurosawa's voice echoed in Su Yue's heart, carrying an undeniable firmness.
However, the Ice Crystal Phoenix before them, like the Black Swamp, was also at the Royal level.
For Su Yue in his previous life, being able to withstand its attack would have been a pipe dream.
But for Su Yue now, all of this seems to be just a trivial challenge.
Before Su Yue could say anything, the Ice Crystal Phoenix had already flapped its wings.
With a slight movement, a cold current and storm powerful enough to stir up raging waves headed straight for Su Yue.
Su Yue took a deep breath, a hint of calm and confidence flashing in his eyes.
Where he stood, the once lush and vibrant flowers, grasses, and shrubs had been gone.
As if frozen in time, it was instantly draped in silver, transforming into a crystal-clear ice sculpture.
At this moment, the Five Elements Pearls lit up just in time, and suddenly the light shone brightly, and the Shield of No Light was imbued with the fire attribute.
It formed a blazing barrier, effectively resisting the invasion of the biting frost and greatly reducing the pressure on Su Yue.
"Little Bingbing, stop struggling in vain. Even I would find it difficult to gain the upper hand against this person."
"Really? I don't believe it!" With that, the Ice Crystal Phoenix reluctantly gathered all its power again and launched several rounds of fierce attacks.
However, the ice blades and beams of light, which contained a chilling aura, all vanished before touching Su Yue's body, posing no threat whatsoever.
The scene before her eyes shocked the Ice Crystal Phoenix.
It's unbelievable, from a seemingly ordinary human being.
It possesses such powerful defense that it easily withstood the attack it was so proud of.
Kurosawa, however, ignored the battle between Su Yue and the Ice Crystal Phoenix.
He simply took out a box of unopened straw from his spirit pet space, as if it were a familiar routine.
At the same time, he instructed Luwei to prepare a sumptuous feast to accompany the drinks.
"That's enough, my lady! When have I, Kurosawa, ever uttered a single falsehood?" Kurosawa's words carried a hint of helplessness and self-mockery.
This caused both Ice Crystal Phoenix and Su Yue, the human-bird duo who were originally at loggerheads, to turn their attention to her.
Then, the two exchanged a smile, everything understood without a word.
Seeing this, Kurosawa gently spread his hands, a sly smile on his face.
It's as if it's saying, "See, that solves the problem."
Thus, this pointless struggle came to an abrupt end, and Su Yue unexpectedly won the recognition and acceptance of the Ice Crystal Phoenix.
At this moment, the Ice Crystal Phoenix slowly shed its dazzling phoenix form.
She transformed instantly into a stunningly beautiful woman with a cold and aloof appearance, as if sculpted from ice and frost.
Her skin was as white as snow, her face as beautiful as a city, and her slender fingers were light and graceful, like a celestial maiden walking lightly to the mortal world, untouched by the dust of the world.
She wore a pure white dress, pristine and flawless, which contrasted sharply with the surrounding shadows and darkness.
It inspires awe and inspires no disrespect.
It must be said that these ferocious beasts have a pretty good sense of aesthetics.
To Su Yue's surprise, the two best friends who hadn't seen each other in a long time actually started gossiping.
"Hey, Little Blackie, this liquor is really something! Where did you find this treasure?"
"Look! This is what the little wolf gave me!" Kurosawa laughed, pointing at Su Yue with a hint of smugness in his eyes.
"Hey, Little Blackie, you have really good taste. Where did you find such a man?"
Although the Ice Crystal Phoenix spoke with a hint of mockery, its gaze did not linger on Su Yue for long.
I'm quite curious and puzzled by Kurosawa's choice.
"Old Bai hired these thugs!" Kurosawa took another big gulp, a faint blush rising on his cheeks, making him look even more dashing.
"Could it be that you really lost to this ordinary human?"
The Ice Crystal Phoenix looked left and right, up and down, and realized that this boy was no ordinary person.
"Why don't you try again? But rather than being sealed away by Old Bai for a hundred years, wouldn't it be more enjoyable to travel around the world?"
"That's true! Man, you've successfully caught my attention!"
The Ice Crystal Phoenix now cast a more scrutinizing gaze at Su Yue, secretly approving of him.
It knew that its best friend was always arrogant and haughty, and now that she was willing to become a human's contracted spirit beast, she was obviously no ordinary person.
"Hey, why don't you consider becoming this kid's partner? Then, the two of us..."
Kurosawa's lips curled into a sly smile as his gaze shifted between the Ice Crystal Phoenix and Su Yue.
"Please stop your Zhang San behavior!" Ice Crystal Phoenix and Su Yue spoke almost simultaneously, stopping Heize's mockery in unison.
"Hahaha!" Seeing the two responding so tacitly, Kurosawa couldn't help but burst into laughter.
