“Master.” I turned my head and met Feng Su’s affectionate eyes. I don’t know why, but the word “master” that I was usually quite used to sounded a little jarring at this moment. I was never Feng Su’s master, and I never saved him.
I hurriedly looked away from Feng Su's eyes, "Master, have you forgotten? You were the one who sealed most of my power."
"Me?" A huge question mark appeared on my forehead.
"Back then, my entire phoenix clan was wiped out. I inherited the divine power of our clan, but I was too weak to bear it. Master, you sealed it away for me and avenged my people. Tell me that I don't have to do anything from now on and can just stay by your side as a little phoenix."
I was completely confused. I remembered everything he said, except for the matter of sealing Feng Su's power. I noticed that Feng Su was staring at me, so I scratched my head and smiled awkwardly, "Ah, now that you mention it, I remember."
Feng Su looked at me and smiled. "Tell me, if one day I tell you to find your own fun, that will be the time I break the seal."
I was stunned. I took a deep breath. How could the original owner of this body say such a thing? Was it a coincidence or a deliberate arrangement?
I would believe that the original owner, who had never descended to the mortal realm, possessed such precognitive strategies. But then, a thought popped into my head: could it be that Nü Xin had never changed at all? Was her feigned ignorance and weakness all for ulterior motives? And what about me? Was my appearance an accident or a carefully planned scheme?
"Master, why are you spacing out again?" Feng Su waved her hand in front of my eyes.
I came to my senses and asked Feng Su with a slight smile, "Did I say anything else back then? It's been so long, I can't quite remember."
Feng Su shook her head. "No. I've been by my master's side ever since then. So many years have passed, and I've grown from a little chick into an elegant and noble phoenix."
"Yes, that's right." I stroked Feng Su's head and smiled like a loving mother.
Since my conversation with Feng Su that day, Feng Su and I have returned to our original way of getting along, but the difference is that Feng Su has become very strong now.
Feng Su and I teamed up to defeat many bosses, and everything went smoothly for You as well; she no longer appeared pale-faced.
After many days of hard work, the celestial officials finally told us that this was the last batch, and that once this wave was wiped out, the chaos would be completely over.
I don't know how You felt after hearing that, I couldn't tell from her expression. But my happiness was so great that I could feel it even from 20,000 meters away. The tiring work was finally over, and I could go back to my palace and relax.
After a period of idleness and nothing to do, there is finally something to look forward to again.
"You Emperor, Emperor Xin must be extra careful this time. This is the last and strongest batch," the celestial official solemnly reminded You and me.
I didn't take the celestial official's words to heart, because the celestial official always said that he was very strong, but every time I went there, he wasn't that strong. Now I have great doubts about the perception of the strength of these celestial officials.
"You, did you hear that? It's almost over? I'll come back quickly today, and so will you. We haven't had a proper chance to relax in so long." After the celestial official finished speaking, I happily said to You beside me.
"Okay. I'll be earlier today," Youqian replied with a smile.
