Chapter 0798 One-Legged Black Phoenix
The black phoenix flies in the air like a dark cloud. She is no longer the banshee she used to be. Wingdings: ♦︎♦︎⬧︎♦︎◆︎⌧︎♦︎♦︎□︎❍︎
Thinking back to three years ago, she was still well-known among the demon clan and still had amazing beauty. Humans and demon clans with completely different aesthetics acknowledged this, but after some flattery and courtesy, their eyes would always inadvertently Turn to the corner of the skirt and look for the broken foot.
The long skirt can cover everything, not even the toes of the shoes are exposed, but all eyes seem to have penetrating power, and even the most powerful magic can't prevent the exposure of the severed limbs.
Black Phoenix avoided some eyes and killed some eyes. After wandering around the world for a year, she had to admit that she had become a bereaved dog: the Wangshan demon clan disdained a disabled banshee, but the royal family who sacrificed their lives was very impressed by her. Interested in her, every time they met, she would explicitly or implicitly suggest that she could enter the palace and become a witch, so that she could win the favor of the King of Sacrifice and settle down.
Black Phoenix would rather break another leg than become the plaything of the King of Sacrifice. When beauty is just an embellishment of strength, she can accept all greedy eyes calmly. When beauty attracts more attention than strength, she feels unbearable.
In a fit of anger, she really took off the injured leg that was barely connected but didn't dare to touch the ground. Since it was useless, why bother keeping it on her body?
At first she didn't quite understand why she was no longer treated as a big demon because she was just missing a foot, but her demon power had not weakened because of it. Gradually she realized that the broken leg was not actually the key to the problem, it was the world. changed. The Taoist tradition retreated, the demon clan reappeared, and the previous balance of power no longer existed. A large number of new strong men rose up. The royal family who sacrificed their lives obtained the demon species and a new method. A group of lucky people gained the favor of the demon species and became the world's most powerful people in a very short period of time. Half demon, but she is still a black phoenix, and the technique of twin shadows can no longer make her unique among the demon clan.
One of the giant demon king's favorite generals is becoming an irrelevant wandering banshee.
Black Phoenix came to see Yuan Qijing. She thought that back then, it was she who personally invited the great demon to join the giant demon king's army, but he was declined. However, the relationship between the two demons did not break up. Instead, they respected each other. Black Phoenix came to see him. He was not just looking for a place to stay, but also for guidance.
They drank a lot of wine, and Yuan Qijing did not treat her as a gorgeous banshee or a disabled person. He treated her as an old friend. Black Phoenix felt the relaxation he had not seen for a long time, and he was able to open up and reveal the many doubts in his heart.
"I don't know if this is the decline or rise of the demon clan. I have no less money in my hand, but when I look around, I find that the money is no longer valuable. What should I do? Should I hide with this little money? Or Invest your money and fight again?" Black Phoenix has a drinking capacity comparable to that of the beast monster, and he has already poured three wine jars around him.
"Ha, I just ended my seclusion, not because my demon skills are complete and there is no need to continue practicing, but because I know that there is no pure land in this world. The human dynasty is in danger. The country of Saishen has established a powerful navy and is preparing to overthrow the river. You have no choice but to No place to hide."
Yuan Qijing drank more elegantly, sipping carefully one mouthful at a time, but not a lot of wine went into his stomach. There were also three empty wine jars beside him.
"There is nowhere to hide, there really is nowhere to hide." Black Phoenix unconsciously showed a soft look, "I have seriously considered being a witch for the King of Sacrifice. Serving the master with sex is also a skill. I have this ability. ability. But I still refused, not because the King of Sacrifice is too old. I don’t care if he is old enough to be nothing more than a skeleton. "
Heihuang drank a large bowl of wine and watched Yuan Qijing refill it for her, "A prince Tuo told me that the one-legged enchantress will be more popular if she has to show her legs in front of the King of Sacrifice. He didn't say that. It's straightforward, but it's almost the same. He wanted to test it in advance. Haha, I would have killed him in the past, but at that time I could only laugh and run away secretly. "
They sat on the ground on a small island. The sound of the waves was as melodious as music. Yuan Qijing laughed and said, "One-legged Enchantress, from the perspective of the country of sacrifice, is living on the last breath an option?"
"The demons don't need friends, they only need slaves, so even their slaves don't need friends." When Black Phoenix said this, he thought of Mu Xingqiu, sighed, lay down on his back, looked at the blue sky and white clouds, and felt in his heart Thinking that she actually doesn't need friends, what she wants is a way to survive.
Yuan Qijing looked away and gently shook the wine bowl in his hand, his expression gradually becoming serious, "Every winter, a large number of birds fly from the north to the South China Sea to spend the winter.
"Is that why you can treat me to roast bird meat?"
"Haha. What I want to say is that most birds have a fixed route, but there are always some birds that fly in the wrong direction and never reach their destination. They either die at sea or land on the wrong island. There are no Same kind and food will still die.”
"They're stupid birds."
"Some are stupid, some are just bad luck."
"I am also a bird that flies here to escape the winter. Is the route right or wrong? Am I a stupid bird or am I just unlucky?"
"Listen to me. The South China Sea is not always calm. There will always be catastrophes such as earthquakes and tsunamis within a hundred years, which will cause huge changes. So the old islands disappear and new islands rise. Those smart birds follow the normal route. The birds that flew in suddenly found themselves with nowhere to land, but the few birds that flew in the wrong direction survived and even became the heroes who saved the entire flock. "
"What exactly do you want to say?" Black Phoenix was a little drunk.
"Fortune." Yuan Qijing only said these two words. He was also drunk. This drunkenness was just right. He had said everything he needed to say. He could temporarily stop thinking about the future difficulties and did not have to accept the test of Hei Huang. She was even more charming when she was drunk. Yuan Qijing felt that his concentration was running out.
Hei Huang fell asleep, occasionally muttering "stupid bird". The sea breeze was gentle. She had not slept so sweetly and deeply for a long time. When she woke up, she didn't even remember where she was.
Yuan Qijing had left without saying goodbye. The empty wine jar and the leftovers were all scattered, leaving only the mat and three complete roasted birds.
Hei Huang slightly lifted her skirt and looked down at the broken leg. She could turn into another one. Ordinary humans and monsters could not see any flaws at all, but it was useless. She had to look up to the strong, and in the eyes of the strong, nothing could be hidden.
She had forgotten what Yuan Qijing had said, but she had made a decision in her heart. She leaped up, turned into a phoenix, and flew towards the vast ocean.
She searched everywhere for the whereabouts of the Spirit King, and only found it half a year ago. At that time, the Spirit King's team had just escaped a disaster in Yashan and hid on a remote island in the South China Sea to recuperate. Black Phoenix learned the news with the help of Yuan Qijing and immediately flew to the island.
She landed in front of the Spirit King in the form of a phoenix, standing on one leg, not afraid of the many surprised eyes, "I came to the Spirit King, not as a female demon black phoenix, but as a simple beast. I have the bloodline of the black phoenix, my ancestor was originally a phoenix, now I want to return to my ancestors, and never turn into a human form, because I am not reliable in human form."
The Spirit King only asked one question, "Why did you come to me?"
"Because the Spirit King chose to take a unique path, you did not go to the Holy Symbol Dynasty, or other anti-magic forces, they all welcomed you, but you did not go. In a relatively peaceful world, your approach is stupid, but in the increasingly chaotic situation, you may have found the only right way. I think I have similarities with the Spirit King."
Five months later, the Black Phoenix flew over Zhaoshan Island in the form of the Spirit King's refined beast. It was three feet long, with wings spread out nearly three feet, all black feathers, a sharp beak more than two feet long, and two blood-red eyes like burning gems.
For the demons who had only heard her voice in these days, her appearance was really shocking.
The second-rank sorcerer Qi Xuntian recognized the Black Phoenix and had met her in the capital of Sheshen Kingdom. He never thought that after she refused to be the concubine of the King of Sheshen, she would be willing to be a strange beast.
"You, you, you are really the Black Phoenix?" Qi Xuntian asked in disbelief.
The Black Phoenix circled in the air, and her long tail feathers left ink-like flight traces. She didn't speak.
Yin Buchen was even more frightened and trembled. He hid behind Mu Xingqiu, almost pulling the corner of his clothes. The Black Phoenix that appeared this time was different from before. It was full of demonic energy and aggressive, and it looked like a ten-foot-long demon.
Only Mu Xingqiu didn't look up. All his surprise was on Yang Qingyin.
Yang Qingyin had undergone obvious changes. The arrogance of a Taoist disciple turned into coldness, tyranny turned into murderousness, and nonsense turned into calmness. She was still wearing a Taoist robe, but her hair was not combed into a high bun, but tied into a bunch and draped behind her. Surprisingly, her beauty was not only not lost, but even more eye-catching.
She was as beautiful as a statue. The sculptor spent all his efforts on her and finally gave her a layer of hard coldness for protection.
The beauty of the human form of the Black Phoenix made the viewer covetous and evil, but Yang Qingyin's beauty made people feel ashamed. They dared not look directly at her, and even dared not mention the word "beauty".
Mu Xingqiu's heart was beating wildly, and his blood was rushing up. Another self - more like his former self, the real self - seemed to be resurrected, "Why do you think I am a half-demon?"
Mu Xingqiu suppressed the urge to explain the truth. He could not reveal his true identity in front of Yang Qingyin, because now he would only provoke Wangshan's powerful enemies, but he would not be able to protect her.
As for Hong Futian and Yin Bushen, no one would believe their words, but they could become a fog to cover up the truth.
Yang Qingyin was ready to cast a spell, but Tuo Yong's reaction surprised her and made her a little confused. "You bypassed the restrictions I set outside Zhaoshan Island. You are a descendant of the Tuo family, so I judged that you have become a half-demon. It seems that I was wrong."
Mu Xingqiu suddenly realized that he did avoid many restrictions when he approached Zhaoshan. One of them was very powerful. He thought it came from a big demon, but he didn't expect it to be Yang Qingyin's spell.
The beast refining method was more powerful than he expected.
"I am not your enemy." He said.
"So what?" Yang Qingyin stopped talking here. She would not let a moment of confusion affect the original plan.
The black phoenix fell from the sky, and its sharp cry resounded through the clouds. Countless feathers shot to the ground like a storm.
Mu Xingqiu did not move. Qi Xuntian, the second-grade sorcerer, raised the slender animal horn. That was originally a trick used to deal with half-demons. He found that he had to use it in advance.
