Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The next morning, Ming Shu took Qi Yu out of the Thousand Mirror Mountain.
Jing Yu flew slowly.
The breeze was light. The mountains and rivers spread out below them.
Qi Yu looked at the scenery below. This kind of scene… could never be seen in his world.
Thinking about this, he clenched his fists slightly.
His world…
Ming Shu took him to the place where they landed when they arrived in this world.
The stream flowed toward the horizon.
Ming Shu stood under a tree. She took all the fruits growing on the tree.
“Can you finish…” It shouldn’t be enough for her.
Ming Shu pa.s.sed one to him.
Qi Yu didn’t take it. Instead, he leaned over and bit the part where she had bitten.
His lips pressed close to the flesh of the fruit. He revealed his white teeth and slowly bit the fruit. Juice tainted his lips.
There was a strong reiki on his body. Whenever she got close to him, she felt extremely comfortable.
Little demon!
How dare to seduce me and take away my fruit!
Ming Shu reached out and grabbed his waist. She took the fruit. “Don’t go too overboard.”
Qi Yu swallowed the fruit. It was sweet.
He stuck his tongue out and licked his lips like a little kitten.
Ming Shu: “…”
Ming Shu released him. Calm down, calm down. This little demon is nothing. He is nothing compared to the fruit.
Ming Shu walked forward with Qi Yu and they entered the forest.
They reached flat land. Someone seemed to have come here before them. They could see signs of activity.
Ming Shu kicked the wooden sticks on the ground. “I wonder who stole my meat. Don’t let me catch him…”
Qi Yu: “…”
When did she have meat?
Did she come all the way here to find meat to eat?
Is she crazy?
…Wait, I can’t say this about my wife.
My wife is cute.
Qi Yu brainwashed himself.
After they left the forest, they flew toward the south. Jing Yu stopped occasionally and Ming Shu would bring it down for a walk.
Around three days later…
They stopped in front of a blood-red lake.
Qi Yu was frightened of this color.
However, he had to admit that the lake was beautiful.
It was like a ruby.
Bright and enchanting.
“This…?”
“Phoenix Lake.”
Ming Shu held his hand and they walked along the edge of the lake. “Legend has it that the phoenix tribe had their Nirvana rebirth here. Last time, the Phoenix Lake was clear.”
Qi Yu looked sideways at him. Ming Shu looked into his eyes and smiled.
“A little princess from the phoenix tribe fell in love with a man. The man promised her that he would always stay beside her.
“However, the man went against his word. He led humans, along with other tribes, to attack the phoenix tribe.
“The little princess retreated all the way to Phoenix Lake. In the end, she bled to death. Hence, Phoenix Lake became red.”
Qi Yu was confused. “Erm… why did you bring me here?”
“Oh, if you dare to betray me, this is your ending. I’m bringing you here so that you can get a look at this place first.”
Qi Yu was shocked.
Are you serious?
This is not what the script said!
Ming Shu walked one round with him. They returned to their original spot.
A light appeared in front of Qi Yu. He looked at the lake.
Two red phoenixes slowly appeared in the sky above the lake. They flew toward each other and started biting each other’s necks.
Qi Yu: “…” What is happening now?
They flew over the lake a few times before flying toward Ming Shu.
Qi Yu looked at her. Ming Shu just stood there calmly.
The phoenixes glided over their heads. They spun a few times before turning into light rays.
The light rays landed on their shoulders. It was beautiful.
There seemed to be music in the air too.
“Let’s go.”
Ming Shu held Qi Yu’s hand and walked back.
Qi Yu was puzzled. What was that?
After some time, Qi Yu heard from Xiu Huan that the story Ming Shu said was only partially true.
It was indeed true that one phoenix bled out at the lake. However, that phoenix died with its lover.
It was a touching love story.
The Phoenix Lake was not only the place where phoenixes were reborn, but it was also the place of love.
There was a rumor that if any two humans found the Phoenix Lake and walked one round around it, they would be able to see the phoenixes and get their blessing. This blessing would allow them to live together till old age and never be parted.
Unfortunately, not many people knew where the Phoenix Lake was.
This rumor became a legend.
Qi Yu only knew about this after a long time.
At this moment, he was still trembling in fear.
His wife always liked to scare him.
…
On the way back…
Ming Shu sat on Jing Yu’s back. “Baby, come over.”
Qi Yu was on his guard. “What do you want?”
However, he still leaned toward Ming Shu.
Ming Shu raised her hand. Qi Yu felt something covering his eyes. His vision was blocked.
What the h.e.l.l is she doing?
“Wife?”
Ming Shu pushed him back and climbed on top of him. She kissed him.
Her fingers moved over his clothes and slid underneath. Qi Yu was stunned.
Wait…
They were in midair and there was a bird…
He never heard Jing Yu talking, but it was obvious that this bird knew everything.
However, Qi Yu didn’t have the energy to consider these things.
Just as he was about to lose control, he heard Jing Yu’s chirp.
The weight on his body disappeared.
He was pulled up. The thing covering his eyes was taken away. Qi Yu took some time to get used to the lighting.
The Thousand Mirror Mountain was in front of them.
He could see the entire mountain clearly.
The buildings in the air were covered in red cloths.
A soft shaw was placed on his body. It was bright red.
Qi Yu froze. He looked at the person beside him. She was in bright red too.
Qi Yu swallowed.
So…
Was this a wedding?
Didn’t she say that they wouldn’t have a wedding?
“Are you shocked?”
“Wife…” I’m just surprised by you. As expected, you like me!
“Don’t be touched. This was not prepared by me. The people on the Thousand Mirror Mountain felt that you need an official status so they prepared this.”
Yes!
My storytelling ability got stronger!
I should reward myself with a fruit… I shall save it and have it later!
“…”
The cool breeze blew past them. Their red clothes billowed in the wind.
Birds flew around them.
A red shaw flew down from the sky. It covered their figures.
The scene was magnificent and beautiful.
Jing Yu flew past the buildings. Chatter and waves of laughter could be heard.
The entire Thousand Mirror Mountain seemed alive.
The protective screen closed up.
The Thousand Mirror Mountain was like a mirage. It only appeared for a moment.
A red shaw fell slowly from the sky.
All sound ceased.
