Chapter 281: Her attitude of readily admitting her mistakes but resolutely refusing to change made m
Seeing that Zhong Lingxin remained silent, Sect Master Lu couldn't contain his curiosity and asked, "That phoenix divine beast, you obtained it, didn't you?"
Zhong Lingxin smiled faintly and remained silent.
When Sect Master Lu learned that Zhong Lingxin had obtained the Phoenix Divine Beast, he couldn't help but nag, "You already have a Nine-Tailed Fox, and now you've contracted with the Phoenix Divine Beast, and there's that Dragon Clan member too. What can I say to you? Your ascension is just around the corner, you shouldn't have taken this risk."
As Zhong Lingxin listened to Sect Leader Lu's nagging, she occasionally admitted her mistakes with a good attitude, saying that she had been reckless.
Sect Master Lu was so angry at her attitude of being brave enough to admit her mistakes but determined not to change them that he had a toothache. He waved his hand and told her to go back to her Qingling Peak for seclusion: "Go back. You are not allowed to come out until you undergo tribulation."
Right now, besides me, nobody knows that the Phoenix Beast is with you.
"Your nine-tailed fox is already enough to make people envious, so please don't reveal your phoenix beast again."
When Zhong Lingxin returned to Qingliang Palace, she saw that her older brother and younger brother were both in seclusion.
She didn't know if her older and younger brothers had also discovered that she had sneaked out.
Adhering to the principle that she should still put on an act, she gently opened the door to the cultivation room and went into the main hall to drink tea.
Soon, Zhong Muyun entered the main hall and reported on the events that had occurred at the peak over the past few years.
Zhong Muyuan is still in seclusion.
Zhong Lingxin sighed softly, realizing that neither her silly older brother nor her silly younger brother had noticed that she had sneaked out.
This also explains why Sect Leader Lu was able to become the sect leader, while his own brothers could only be seriously injured by others.
Both the older and younger brothers are missing eight hundred of those little tricks.
Never mind, let's just assume that people with simple minds are more likely to cultivate.
Turning her head, Zhong Lingxin activated the protective array of Qingling Peak.
This time, she really went into seclusion.
Inside the Nine-Story Pagoda, the phoenix egg, nourished by the fire veins, had become translucent and glossy, as if a little phoenix was sleeping peacefully inside it.
However, the sleeping little phoenix was extremely unruly.
The fire snakes that were imprisoned to the side would occasionally be stolen by it and smashed to death.
Zhong Chun even took a photo with him once.
The phoenix egg, like a thief, spun around in the flames a few times. Sensing no movement around it, it broke free of the barrier and slipped out, heading straight for the fire snakes.
I didn't see it had claws, but it was certain that one or two fire snakes would be flung onto the eggs and then spin around and back to their nest.
Then the fire snake that it flung over suffered greatly, being slammed heavily beneath it.
The entire egg lay on the fire serpent, pressing down on it and making it hard for the serpent to breathe.
Zhong Lingxin suspects that the phoenix egg is seeking revenge.
Back in the flames of the Fallen Phoenix Mountains, the fire serpents strangled the phoenix egg, making it hard for it to breathe.
Of course, while the phoenix egg sought revenge, it didn't forget its mission to hatch.
Occasionally, a few chirps could be heard coming from inside the eggshell.
Whenever this happens, the Phoenix Qin, which has been nurtured for several years and is slowly recovering, responds with two "zhengzheng" sounds.
The phoenix egg was overjoyed to hear the reply, and its flames shot up rapidly.
There were a couple of times when there was no response, and the phoenix egg became restless. The flames roared and chirped incessantly until they were hoarse.
We must wait until the Phoenix Harp responds with two notes.
Gradually, Zhong Chun and her friends also discovered the connection between the phoenix egg and the phoenix zither. Even if the phoenix zither was soaking in the spiritual spring, they would still carry it to the phoenix egg and play it a couple of times.
On this day, Zhong Lingxin was repairing the strings of the Phoenix Zither with ice silkworm silk when she suddenly sensed a bright red light shining from the fire vein in the distance.
The Phoenix Harp also began to tremble and sing rapidly, breaking free from Zhong Lingxin's hand and darting towards the fire vein.
Zhong Chun exclaimed with delight, "The little phoenix is about to hatch!"
Zhong Lingxin, carrying the Phoenix Harp, flashed to the side of the Fire Vein.
The phoenix eggshells became increasingly transparent and lustrous.
A soft "tap-tap" sound was coming from inside the eggshell.
A thin crack is gradually spreading from the top of the eggshell towards the bottom.
The phoenix zither rang out excitedly twice.
The phoenix eggshell wobbled twice, producing two clear "chirp" sounds.
Immediately afterwards, the "tap-tap" sound inside the eggshell became faster and louder.
Soon, a fluffy, wet little head peeked out of the eggshell, excitedly chirping "cheep cheep cheep..." towards the direction of the Phoenix Harp.
There was a "thump-thump" sound coming from inside the eggshell, like the wings of a little phoenix flapping.
The phoenix zither played a continuous "zhengzheng" sound, as if urging the little phoenix to hatch quickly.
At that moment, Lele rushed over and threw two fire snakes onto the ground.
It turned out that the fire serpent was still up to its old tricks. Taking advantage of everyone's attention being on the little phoenix, it crawled out from the bottom of the eggshell, attempting to swallow the little phoenix as soon as it hatched.
The little phoenix was furious.
That damned fire serpent has been eyeing it all along.
Is it really that delicious?
The little phoenix opened its mouth and spat out a tongue of fire, which burned the fire snake that Lele had thrown to the ground and was struggling to roll over.
The fire serpent's belly was burned by the little phoenix's flames, and it was quickly burned to death.
The little phoenix chirped twice more, seemingly pleased with its powerful flames.
Lele gave the little phoenix face, circling its head twice before praising, "The phoenix is truly fiery, not bad!"
The little phoenix was pleased with itself and spewed out another flame towards the fire vein.
The flames of the fire vein instantly rose a hundred feet high.
In a panic, Zhong Chun shouted, "Stop! Stop right now!"
Peach Blossom and Pear Blossom rushed to the nearby medicinal field and cast several rain spells to extinguish the fire that was smoldering the herbs.
The little phoenix probably knew it had done something wrong, so it kept chirping and frantically pecking at the eggshell to break it open.
A tiny phoenix fluttered about, its wings barely touching the ground, and staggered toward Zhong Lingxin.
Zhong Lingxin stared blankly.
Is this a phoenix, a mythical beast?
Why does it look like a little chick?
It's a newly hatched chick, its feathers haven't even grown in yet.
Even stewed, it wouldn't make a single pot of soup!
The little chick toddled and chirped all the way to Zhong Lingxin, then climbed up her trouser leg and onto her body.
Zhong Lingxin reached out and lifted the chick onto her palm. The little chick looked at the phoenix zither in Zhong Lingxin's other hand and chirped incessantly.
The phoenix zither responded to the chick, its strings trembling slightly, producing two clear, resonant sounds.
The little chicks are chirping.
The phoenix zither plays a clear, resonant tune.
You say one, I say one.
I say one, you say one.
They responded to each other.
After a long while, the chick suddenly pecked Zhong Lingxin's index finger and sucked the blood from it.
The phoenix zither trembled and sang incessantly.
Zhong Lingxin could feel the joy in the Phoenix Harp.
Soon, the image of a phoenix appeared in Zhong Lingxin's mind, much prettier than the little chick in front of her.
It is at least a phoenix with bright red plumage.
The little phoenix called out softly in Zhong Lingxin's sea of consciousness, "Little Qinqin!"
Zhong Lingxin closed her open mouth.
That "Little Qinqin" was definitely not being called to her.
