"Mother, this is the master I have chosen!" Fire Phoenix spoke excitedly to the huge Fire Phoenix. Nangong Qing then looked carefully at this huge Fire Phoenix which was only the size of a house. It was surrounded by a fiery red light that enveloped her. Its wings were locked by huge chains and fixed to the stone walls on both sides.
"Are you the master chosen by the Fire Phoenix?" The huge Fire Phoenix looked at Nangong Qing. Its sharp eyes surprised Nangong Qing. She didn't expect that a bird could have such sharp eyes. It was really rare.
"She said that I opened her seal, so she called me master!" Nangong Qing met her gaze. After a while, the huge fire phoenix smiled with satisfaction, "You are indeed different. No wonder you can open her seal. Human, what is your name?"
“Nangong Qing!”
"Nangong Qing, do you know who I am?" The giant fire phoenix spoke, and Nangong Qing looked at her in confusion, "Aren't you the mother of the fire phoenix?"
The huge Fire Phoenix smiled, "In addition to being the mother of the Fire Phoenix, I am also the Vermillion Bird, one of the four ancient divine beasts!"
"The sacred beast Vermillion Bird?" Nangong Qing stared at the huge fire phoenix in front of her with wide eyes. It turned out that the Vermillion Bird was the fire phoenix. She was really surprised.
"Yes, among the four ancient divine beasts, the Azure Dragon is blue in color and represents wood; the White Tiger is white in color and represents gold; the Vermillion Bird is red in color and represents fire; the Black Tortoise is black in color and represents water. They guard the four directions of east, west, south and north respectively to maintain the peace of the world. But more than a thousand years ago, a very powerful strong man suddenly appeared and sealed us four ancient divine beasts in four places. Since then, the divine beasts have never appeared in the world again. In order to break our respective seals, the four divine beasts used our only abilities to give birth to an offspring each, looking for a strong man from another world to break the seal, eliminate that strong man, and return the four divine beasts to the world."
"You mean I'm the powerful person from another world who broke the seal?" Nangong Qing was really shocked when she heard Zhuque's words. It turned out that the four ancient beasts were respectively guarding the four continents of east, west, south and north of this world. Then according to what she said, she should be in the south. This was clearly the Toshiba Continent, not where she should stay.
“Yes, are you surprised that a girl like you who doesn’t even have any spiritual energy can be a powerful person from another world?” Zhuque looked at Nangong Qing, and seeing the puzzled look in her eyes, he explained, “It’s not that you don’t have spiritual energy, but your spiritual energy is too strong, so we four divine beasts have jointly sealed it!”
"What!" Nangong Qing widened her eyes in shock. The spiritual energy was sealed, which meant that the previous owner of this body was not without spiritual energy, but was sealed by them. In this case, wasn't Nangong Qing killed by them?
"The previous Nangong Qing was not qualified to be a divine beast summoner. She must wait until your soul from another world enters her body and you are reborn!" Zhuque stared at Nangong Qing. Nangong Qing lowered her head guiltily and did not dare to look at her. She actually knew that she was not the real Nangong Qing. Could it be that they were the ones who caused her to come here?
"You can't escape your fate there. It is destined that your life will unfold here. You are responsible for whether the four ancient beasts can return to their rightful positions. Nangong Qing, do you understand?"
Nangong Qing looked at Suzaku and frowned, "Then what do you want me to do?"
“I will untie your seal and make you the only divine beast summoner in the world. But remember, the divine beast you are going to contract is the descendant of our four great divine beasts. They will lead you to save us!”
"How can I find the descendants of the four divine beasts? Also, how can I rescue you?" Nangong Qing asked hurriedly. She never expected that the four divine beasts were the ones who controlled this world!
