God Emperor

Only the descendant of the Phoenix-human Race contained the divine power of the ancient phoenix in their blood. Once awoken, it would be like a phoenix rising out of the ashes. No one could imagine what level they could reach.

“Im not entirely from the Phoenix-human Race,” Mu Lingxi said. “Its just that one of the elders of the Mu Family once had a child with an Ice Phoenix. This bloodline has been passed down until now. However, we have the lowest fertility rate. Theres only one heir per generation. Were actually the weakest line among the Mu Family.”

“The records say that the Fire Phoenix and Ice Phoenix are both ancient divine beast races,” Zhang Ruochen said. “They passed down from the ancient times to the middle ages. However, theyre both very noble races and look down upon the weak humans. Its my first time hearing about an Ice Phoenix being together with a human.”

Mu Lingxi put her wings away. Joy appeared on her beautiful face and she smiled. “It doesnt matter. Anyway, the Ice Phoenix lineage has already awoken. From now on, those old guys from my family wont force me to do things that I dont like. I have the ability to negotiate with them now.”

Hearing this, Zhang Ruochens heart jumped slightly. Could it be that, deep down, she wasnt as happy, mischievous, and smiley as she seemed?

“The Mu Family doesnt like you?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Mu Lingxi sighed softly. “Oh please, if those old guys liked me, they wouldnt send me to infiltrate the Martial Market Academy. Its so dangerous. You should be clearer than me what would happen if my identity was revealed. Whether its the battle of interests within the family or amongst the sect, theyre both very dark. Everyone has a price above their heads. Those with value can live comfortably. Those without value can be tossed away at any time. And even those with value sometimes cant live as they wish. Ah! I wish that I could stay in the netherworld and scroll world forever so I never have to go back. But sadly, I know that its impossible.”

Zhang Ruochen clutched Mu Lingxis slim waist and held her in his arms. That moment, the world became so quiet and serene. They no longer thought about the conflicts and hatred in Kunluns Field.

But soon after, Mu Lingxi broke free from Zhang Ruochens arms and stood dozens of feet away. She grinned. “Its my fault for not being able to control myself just now. Im sorry. It wont happen again.”

Zhang Ruochen was clear that Mu Lingxi had apologized because there was someone who couldnt be faced between them.

“Here are your three swords.”

Mu Lingxi waved her sleeves, sweeping up Holy Qi. The Taotian Sword, Abyss Ancient Sword, and Gold Snake Divine Rapier flew out of the Holy Qi and stuck in the ground before Zhang Ruochen.
