Chapter 64
Shi Xi's eyes widened, and he could hardly speak clearly. He said with a stiff face, "The main reason is that I don't understand what you are saying."
Han Fengci curled the corner of his mouth, and Shi Xi suddenly panicked: It's over.
Unexpectedly, just as he gave up this thought, he flew into the air, his immortal power was sealed, and he was thrown back and forth in the air by Han Fengci like a snowball, back and forth, spinning around in a beautiful parabola. Han Fengci was busy making tea and ignored Shi Xi's shouting: "Let me go———"
After a while, Shi Xi finally compromised: "Let me go - I'll tell you, I'll tell you."
Han Fengci was not in a hurry, but rather relaxed. He picked up the teacup and brought it to his lips, taking a sip of tea: "I have plenty of time."
Shi Xi, who was still snowballing in the air, felt like crying but had no tears. His heart, liver, spleen and lungs were all spinning like a top and he felt so uncomfortable. He begged for mercy in a sobbing voice: "I beg you, please, I'll tell you, I'll tell you everything, it was the Divine Phoenix - the Divine Phoenix who saved you!" Shi Xi shouted the last sentence out of his throat with all his strength, fearing that Han Fengci couldn't hear him.
Shi Xi finally landed.
After turning for so long, his legs felt light and fluttery when touching the ground. He swayed back and forth several times before he could barely stand.
Han Fengci asked: "How did you save him?"
“Heart blood,” Shi Xi recalled, “Heart blood and blue spirit stone, these are all I know. I don’t know how and why you were saved. She wouldn’t let me in, so I don’t know.” He added, “I stood guard at the door for several days! Suddenly one day, a red light exploded in the house, and not long after, you were alive.”
Red light? That should be the power of nirvana of the Phoenix clan.
What that old man Dan Huai said was actually true.
At this time, Han Fengci's hands were already trembling under his sleeves.
He doesn't understand.
Why? Why on earth?
He raised his eyes and asked Shi Xi: "Why did she save me?"
"How should I know!" Shi Xi was furious. "I don't understand either of you!"
Han Fengci had no patience for Shi Xi at all. It was visible to the naked eye that a faint orchid flame was emitting from his eyes. Shi Xi knew what to do. His greatest strength was knowing what to do. He immediately changed the subject: "She said she didn't want to owe you anything!" Then he quickly added, "I think she's lying."
"What do you mean?"
"Who would joke about their own life? She doesn't have any immortal power anymore." Shi Xi sat back in his original position, shoulders drooping, "She's almost the same as a mortal, so her words of not wanting to owe you are so pale. She said she wanted to save you at the beginning, but she didn't even blink."
Shi Xi exaggerated his expression: "Heart blood! Phoenix's heart blood! I'm afraid I gave it all to you." He became more and more excited as he spoke. Since he had already said it, he might as well say it all. Therefore, he didn't notice that Han Fengci's face was getting uglier and uglier. "At that time, I heard your voice in the void, and went to the Red Sun Continent to find the Divine Phoenix. But the Divine Phoenix was not afraid of you at all. She went to find you. I couldn't stop her."
Feng Wuling, what are you doing?
Han Fengci couldn't figure it out. Facing Shi Xi who was chattering, he asked, "What else?"
Shi Xi was stunned for a moment and said, "No more."
With a whoosh, just like when he came, Han Fengci was gone in just a breath. Shi Xixi cursed for half a cup of tea.
The cold wind left the Dragon Palace.
The familiar Nanming Gate.
Han Fengci frowned, concealed his breath, and stood where he often stood before. It did take courage for him to go in.
Feng Wuling, if you didn't have me in your heart, why would you save me?
Do you know how important the power of Nirvana and the blood of your heart are to you?
Why would you even want to give up your life?
Also, do you really look down on that loser as old man Dan Huai said?
I don't like him either.
And the baby in your belly——
If he wanted to find out the truth, he had to go in. But he was afraid of hearing answers he didn't want to hear.
They clearly agreed that they owed each other nothing, but it seems like they both broke their promise.
He wandered at the gate of Nanming for a long time, and finally closed his eyes and rushed straight into the Dragon Palace.
Inside the Dragon Palace, sitting on the ice-blue dragon throne was the old Dragon King.
He frowned as he looked at Ao Zhuozhi who was sitting on the steps. Was he really holding a pot of blue flowers and looking at her lovingly as Dan Huai said?
Yes, but it is full of affection.
Han Fengci could tell at a glance that he was indeed poisoned by the man-eating plant. To be more precise, it should be the female powder of the giant man-eating plant. It was a creature from the demon world, or more precisely, a pet from the demon world.
It seems like it's time to take the Piranha Plant back to the demon world.
The magic palace seems to be alive.
However, Han Fengci soon noticed the two monsters beside Ao Zhuozhi—the carp monster and the coral monster?
He's in conflict with old man Dan Huai again.
It is impossible for Feng Wuling to serve the same husband as someone else, that is the nature of the Phoenix clan. Not to mention that Dan Huai did not believe it, even he did not believe it. So, it is reasonable for Dan Huai to suspect that Feng Wuling has other purposes.
Why did Feng Wuling come to the Dragon Clan?
Why would the dragon clan make her so cautious and dormant?
Han Fengci thought about it and realized that the dragon clan only had those three worthless treasures, what else did they have?
Could it be that Feng Wuling wants the three treasures of the dragon clan?
Then what is the purpose of the Three Treasures?
Han Fengci was confused, but he also felt a sense of restlessness as if the answer was right in front of him.
The old dragon king looked at the stunned Ao Zhuozhi with a sad face. He had thought of all the ways these days, but none of them worked. He had to watch his only son become half-crazy and half-idiotic, staring at a blue rose every day. How could he be a member of the dragon clan? The old dragon king's hair turned completely white, which was visible to the naked eye, because he was eager to have a son.
Ao Zhuozhi was unaware of the sorrowful expressions of the people around him. At this moment, he felt that he was the most infatuated lover in the world. No one was more infatuated than him, and no one was more miserable than him - he missed someone madly, but the image of this person was vague in his mind, and he only remembered a blue flower.
That must be her favorite flower.
"Where are you? Why don't you come to find me? Where should I find you?" This is the question Ao Zhuozhi asks himself all the time.
Being a lover is not easy, he is willing to give up everything.
If the old Dragon King knew Ao Zhuozhi's true thoughts, he would probably be so angry that he would die on the spot.
The old Dragon King looked at the stunned Ao Zhuozhi and lamented: "What should I do?"
The coral fairy pondered for a long time, opening and closing her mouth. It was obvious that she had something to say, but she was wondering whether she should say it. She looked at the half-idiot Dragon Prince and suddenly realized that if the prince was finished, she would be finished too. Therefore, Ao Zhuozhi must not be in trouble.
"Dragon King." The coral fairy stood up from beside Ao Zhuozhi and knelt in front of the old Dragon King. "I have a trick."
"Go ahead." The old Dragon King said, holding his chin.
"You can go to the mermaid tribe to ask for the heavenly book."
The mermaid clan’s holy book!
"Yes, how could I forget the mermaid's heavenly book!" Just now he was still excited that Ao Zhuozhi was saved, but the next moment, the old dragon king was frowning again, his face was very ugly. He said, "The mermaids and dragons have always been at odds, they will definitely not lend it to you."
"But the Book of Heaven knows everything. The prince must be saved."
Yes! The mermaids' heavenly book knows everything! For his son, what does his old face matter? As long as the old mermaid king wants it, he can risk his life. So, the old dragon king was so fast, he picked up his robe and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Han Fengci thought about it and followed.
The mermaids are not far from the dragons, but the two tribes have been fighting for territory since their ancestors. The outcome is obvious. The dragons are the tribe favored by heaven. The mermaids are the tribe of wisdom. They have supreme wisdom, but no fighting power. The mermaids live on the Worry-Free Island, a deep sea area without four seasons. It is always spring with the fragrance of flowers and peach blossoms.
The mermaid prince Dengru was basking in the sun on a strange rock when he sensed that the old Dragon King was heading towards Worry-Free Island alone. He opened his eyes instantly and became alert, ready to go and investigate alone.
With a hissing sound, ripples appeared on the silent sea surface.
In the blink of an eye, Deng Ru from the mermaid tribe appeared in front of the old Dragon King. The two almost collided. The old Dragon King braked in time to avoid a collision. He was a little annoyed, but when he thought that the old Dragon King came to ask for help, he swallowed the anger.
Deng Ru watched the old dragon king swallow hard several times, and couldn't help wanting to laugh. The two tribes had always been at odds, and the dragon tribe always looked down on the mermaid tribe, so how come the old dragon king could hold back his temper today?
Thinking about it again, Deng Ru laughed. The mermaids, both male and female, were extremely charming and it was hard to tell whether they were male or female. They had fair skin and colorful hair, but only the royal family had blue hair. Deng Ru had a head of azure blue hair, not as blue as the deep sea, but more like the brilliant blue of the sky. The old dragon king had no idea what Deng Ru was laughing at. He felt a little guilty, after all, he came to ask for help, so he took the initiative to ask: "Is the mermaid prince in a good mood today?"
"Of course." Deng Ru retracted his smile and stared at the old Dragon King. "Did the old Dragon King forget what your father said?"
The old Dragon King really didn't remember. The friction with Deng Ru's father, Zun Qiong Sha, can be traced back to ten thousand years ago. At that time, they were young and full of vigor, and said a lot of shameless words. So, he really didn't remember the specific sentence. However, Deng Ru didn't mind reminding the old Dragon King.
Deng Ru smiled and said, "Father said that since the Dragon Clan insulted our people like this, they must never come to our clan to beg for mercy one day."
With this reminder, the old dragon king instantly remembered. Ten thousand years ago, when he had just ascended the throne, he was young and strong, and liked to lead his shrimp soldiers and crab generals to fight everywhere. At that time, the mermaid prince was at the age of playfulness, and happened to meet the old dragon king patrolling the sea. The long blue hair instantly attracted his attention.
When he was a child, Deng Ru was captured by the old Dragon King and imprisoned in the Dragon Palace for five days.
In fact, even if the old Dragon King was causing trouble, he would not attack a child. He just turned off the lights to attract the mermaid king Qiongsha to come and bow to the dragon clan. However, he had calculated everything, but he did not expect that there was another second-generation ancestor in the Dragon Palace, the child Ao Zhuozhi.
When Deng Ru was found, her azure blue hair had already reached her shoulders.
Even so, the old Dragon King didn't care. It was just a joke between children. Besides, hair can grow back. Therefore, he may not remember the incident at all. He only remembers that he tied Deng Ru back to the Dragon Palace.
The old Dragon King smiled awkwardly, his attitude indeed begging for help: "It's been tens of thousands of years, do you still remember? We were young and hot-tempered back then, and now we have been living in peace for many years? The Dragon Clan has never caused trouble for the Mermaid Clan."
As expected, this old guy had indeed forgotten the harm that Ao Zhuozhi had done to Deng Ru and didn't mention it a word.
Deng Ru raised the corner of his mouth, as if smiling: "We mermaids are very committed to our promises. Once we say something, it becomes a curse."
"Hey - what's the curse?" The old dragon king took another step forward, trying to get close to him, but Deng Ru moved away. The old dragon king didn't care and continued, "We are all neighbors in the deep sea. If you need any help in the future, you can come to the dragon clan. We should support each other and live in peace."
If these words were said ten thousand years ago, the mermaids would have thanked the dragons with all their strength. But now, these words seemed like a joke. Deng Ru continued to chuckle, and the old Dragon King was helpless. He felt that no matter what he said, Deng Ru would laugh, and his skin and flesh would be stiff.
"You—stop laughing."
"Why?" Deng Ru said with a smile, "Does the old Dragon King want to control even the laughter?"
After all, he came to ask for help, so the old Dragon King took a deep breath and said, "Where is Qiongsha? I want to see him."
"Dragon King couldn't stand it in just a short while?" Deng Ru stopped laughing. "When you insulted my father, you did it for several days in a row."
The old Dragon King suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Deng Ru. Deng Ru chuckled again: "Why? Your Excellency Dragon King is forgetful, so you don't remember it, right?"
That's right, he really didn't remember it very well. So, he opened his mouth and didn't know what to say.
Deng Ru didn't mind. He said, "How about I help the Dragon King recall the past? Otherwise, when you and your father reminisce about the past, the old Dragon King won't remember anything, which might upset your father. After all, your father misses you very much."
The corners of the old Dragon King's mouth twitched violently, and he said stiffly: "No, I didn't come here today to relive the past."
"Ah?" Deng Ru acted surprised. "Then father must be worried again. After all, he has been thinking about you a lot these years."
What nonsense is there to mutter? That Qiongsha would never think of anyone, and coupled with Dengru's weird tone, the old Dragon King became more and more annoyed, rising up. But when he thought of the half-stupid child in the Dragon Palace, with thousands of words to say, only one word remained: endure.
Chew it thoroughly and swallow it hard!
