Chapter 611: Concern Leads to Chaos
Ji Yu was surprised when he heard this:
"Is this really a Phoenix feather? I only heard about it from my elders when I was little, but I never thought the rumor would be true!"
The phoenix is a mythical bird that only appears in the legend of creation. The mythical bird blood in Ji Yu's body can feel the pressure of this strange feather, but he just can't believe it for a moment.
Yun Qingqing couldn't suppress the curve of her lips. She looked up at Xiao Changheng, her black jade eyes sparkling:
"With this, I can reshape your bones!"
Xiao Changheng was startled, his heart skipping a beat, and he tightened his arms around her slightly.
"really?"
Yun Qingqing was awakened by the powerful aura of the Phoenix Feather and focused all her attention on it. Only at this moment did she suddenly realize that she was being held in Xiao Changheng's arms.
Her heart beat uncontrollably, her ears felt hot, and she quickly pushed him away and stood up.
"Ahem...it's true." She suppressed the throbbing in her heart, diverted her attention, and smiled at Xiao Changheng. "No secret treasure of the Phoenix Feather's level is more suitable for rebuilding one's bones!"
Ever since Yun Qingqing made up her mind to reshape Xiao Changheng's bones, she had several options in mind. They were all extremely rare treasures that would require a lot of effort.
But there is nothing more suitable than the Phoenix Feather, and there will be no worries.
Truth is something you can only encounter by chance.
She was about to happily put the strange feather away when she suddenly saw a faint flash of golden light in her hand and felt a slight pain on her fingertips.
"Ah..." Yun Qingqing's expression suddenly paused, and she swallowed back half of her exclamation.
Xiao Changheng saw a drop of blood flash across her fingertips, and a worried look appeared on his face:
"Are you okay?"
Yun Qingqing dodged his hand that was reaching out to grab her wrist, put the Phoenix Feather back into space, and smiled nonchalantly:
"It's okay, let's go, let's finish the things here first."
"Sir..." Ji Yu suddenly spoke hesitantly.
"Alright," Yun Qingqing interrupted her, "The barrier is still waiting to be repaired. We can talk later if you have anything to say."
"...Yes." Ji Yu pursed his lips and nodded.
Xiao Changheng frowned slightly, grabbed Yun Qingqing's wrist, and said in a deep voice:
"What's going on? Are you in trouble?"
He clearly saw a drop of blood coming out of Yun Qingqing's fingertip where it was pierced by the Phoenix Feather, and then her expression changed subtly.
Ji Yu's reaction was even bigger, as if he had thought of something and suddenly became worried, but before he could open his mouth, Yun Qingqing stopped him with a look.
Yun Qingqing's eyes flickered slightly:
"What kind of trouble could I possibly have? Thanks to this Phoenix Feather, all the spiritual energy I used up dealing with the demonic energy has returned. I'm fine now!"
What she said sounded fine, but Xiao Changheng still had a frown on his face.
"Then tell me, what happened just now?" He looked straight into Yun Qingqing's eyes and asked word by word.
Yun Qingqing's heart tightened slightly, and she was hesitating on how to dispel his doubts, but unexpectedly, Ji Yu beside her suddenly spoke in a hurry:
"The Phoenix Feather has taken the initiative to recognize its master. If we want to use it for other purposes, we must first sever the contract. Doing so will damage the foundation of the Beast Master..."
"Shut up!" Yun Qingqing's voice was unusually harsh.
Ji Yu lowered his head and said no more, but Xiao Changheng already understood.
The phoenix feather had indeed pierced Yun Qingqing's finger and dripped blood to acknowledge its owner.
"Yun Qingqing..." The excitement he had just felt when he heard about the possibility of rebuilding his bones disappeared completely. He said in a deep voice, "Since the Phoenix Feather has already recognized its master, you should keep it. I don't need it."
Yun Qingqing's expression paused, and her brows furrowed.
"Don't overthink it. It's just a broken contract. It won't affect me that much. I can just find some rare treasures to repair it. But if you want to rebuild your bones, there's absolutely no better material than the Phoenix Feather."
Yun Qingqing had seen in Huaxu's dream that when Xiao Changheng met the old Pavilion Master of Yingyue Pavilion in his previous life more than two thousand years ago, the old Pavilion Master praised him for his excellent physique.
And all the previous signs also showed that he was no ordinary person back then.
If he were to reshape his bones using ordinary methods, he would only get ordinary bones. In Yun Qingqing's opinion, such bones were not worthy of him and were only a last resort.
So when the Phoenix Feather suddenly appeared, she was extremely happy. However, she didn't realize that this thing actually recognized its master. However, Yun Qingqing did not give up her original plan.
But Xiao Changheng didn't feel happy at all when he heard her say that. He pinched Yun Qingqing's wrist a little hard.
There was a hint of anger in his eyes:
"I said I didn't need it!"
Yun Qingqing suddenly felt a strange feeling coming over her, as if the person in front of her had poured a basin of cold water on her.
The deep joy and excitement in her heart suddenly dissipated, and the grievance grew in her heart like a thorny vine, causing her heart to ache slightly.
She shook off Xiao Changheng's hand and said coldly:
"Forget it, if that's the case, from now on I will never again..."
She was halfway through her words when she suddenly froze.
What on earth was I talking about? This didn't sound like me at all, and it wasn't what I really meant... Yun Qingqing raised her hand and rubbed her brows in frustration. She heard the man hum softly.
Her expression paused, and she looked up at Xiao Changheng, only to see his pale eyes and expressionless face as he spoke:
"From now on, you don't have to worry about me..."
He didn't finish his words.
Yun Qingqing raised her hand and threw a spell over, and Xiao Changheng's eyes went dark and he fell asleep.
Yun Qingqing pulled him to her side and held him, looking at the man's face so close to her with a complicated look.
The moment she realized what Xiao Changheng was about to say, she stopped him from speaking in this way without thinking, but he would always wake up. What about next time?
Yun Qingqing even had the thought of erasing the memory he just had, but he quickly shook his head to get rid of the thought, wondering if he was going crazy.
"Master Beast Master... do you... like him so much? Would you rather exchange the Phoenix Feather that has recognized its master for his bones?" Ji Yu whispered.
Yun Qingqing's heart skipped a beat and she came to her senses.
So that's how it is. Caring too much will lead to confusion.
Yun Qingqing lowered her eyes and looked at the man lying in her arms, her gaze softening.
She did not answer directly, but said softly:
"No matter how rare the Phoenix Feather is, it's just an external object that helps people cultivate. Don't let those words affect him anymore."
"...Oh." Ji Yu pursed her lips, feeling unhappy.
Naturally, she didn't want the Beast Master to damage her foundation for others, but since the Master had spoken, she had no other choice.
Suddenly, a strange cracking sound came from the distant sky, and Ji Yu's face changed:
"Oh no! The barrier of the Beast Valley is about to collapse."
Yun Qingqing took a deep breath and stood up holding Xiao Changheng:
"Let's go and repair the barrier first. We can talk about other things later."
