Accompanying The Phoenix

3

The courtyard was built really well, to the point that when Chen Li searched for a gap to hide in, she couldn’t find so much of a crack!

Chen Li has never felt so frustrated or angry . She suddenly made a blood oath; If today, she gets made into chicken stew, she will degrade to a vengeful ghost and haunt heaven for 99 days and 99 nights to the point where they spit blood out of madness . If it wasn’t more them, would she be in such a disgraceful situati-

Before Chen Li could finish her thoughts, an unbearable pain shot through her wings . What happened?!? Panicked, she twisted her head around to see that the commoner girl had clutched both of her wings, leaving her helpless!! Chen Li’s legs ran madly, but alas, she was not free from the girl’s painful grip .

“Such an unpleasant chick, won’t you see how I deal with you!” The girl walked angrily to the kitchen, grabbing something .

Chen Li felt as if her bones were about to tear apart from pain! Bam! Chen Li was slammed onto the cutting board, the girl brandishing the knife above her . Suddenly, Chen Li felt the atmosphere between life and death, the one of a battle . She saw herself once again in the battle field, majestically brandishing her silver long spear . This feeling... had she really become so weak?

“Oh? What’s happening, and why are you here?”

A male voice sounded . In this moment between life and death, Chen Li struggled to turn her head to stare at Xing Yun . The sun coiled around him, looking as if he was an angel, a merciful savior . But in that moment, the knife chopped down, blocking her view .

The girl raised her hands in a defensive posture, and blushed . “X-Xing Yun, uh I just wanted to see you, and wanted to make some stew with the plucked chicken . If the chicken isn’t dead, it won’t taste good in the stew . ”

Chen Li could not even move a claw, completely defenseless . In today’s fight, she had drained all of her strength . She couldn’t help but think- Today, she is dead .

“This chicken cannot be eaten . ” Chen Li was dragged into a pair of warm arms, the scent of medicinal herbs in the air . This smell is really quite good...

“Ah... I apologize... . I just wanted to leave you something before I left . ” The girl twisted her fingers out of nervousness as she spoke in a trembling voice; “Tomorrow, I will be learning business in the far south with my father... I may not c-come back... III-I might never see Brother Xing again!

“Oh? You say you leave me, yet I have never even laid eyes on you . ” The male in question replied rather coldly . The girl’s cheeks were red and eyes bloodshot as she cried . “No! I still saw you every day, looking from behind the walls! Everyday... . ” She looked so pitiful that even Chen li could almost not help but not blame her .

“Ah? Too sad, too sad . I have not once seen you before . ”

Chen Li stared at him in shock, speechless . Was this really him saying this? Even adding such venom into his words!! On top of that, Xing Yun was even smiling!

The girl’s face was deathly pale, staring at Xing Yun in disbelief . “Have you not come to beg for forgiveness or something? Well then I’m sorry, but I have nothing to give you . ”

“No...” She clutched her chest painfully as she staggered away, stuttering . “N-No Need...”

Xing Yun only waved, a calm smile still on his face . Like nothing had just happened, he put Chen Li down and picked up the kitchenware . “Well then, what to eat for dinner today?”

Chen Li, who was still on the floor, saw the girl loitering by the door, apparently still indigent about leaving . In the end, she simply just wiped her nose and buried her head in her arms . Chen Li sighed . This girl, although she is very stupid, and terribly stubborn, her heart is still whole and pure . Chen Li really could not understand the affairs between mortal heats .
