Chapter 231 Psychological Trap, Alchemy Bone
Prime Emperor Zhe An discovered that Yu Aofeng had already reached the Prime Emperor cultivation level. The question that had puzzled him for more than a hundred years was finally answered at this moment. “So on our wedding night, she coaxed me into getting drunk so that she could steal your Inner Core!”
Prime Emperor An Ze revealed an ugly smile. He shook his head and said, “So she took the initiative to approach me and deliberately made me fall in love with her. She didn’t really fall in love with me. She married me because she wanted to form a contract with me and obtain the right to enter my estate! She deliberately did all of this for you!”
His life had become a joke.
Prime Emperor An Ze had long since discovered that Jing Huang had a person in her heart, but he had never guessed that that person was actually the Dragon race’s little prince!
Until today, when he saw Yu Aofeng and thought of that missing dragon race Inner Core, Prime Emperor An Ze instantly understood everything.
But dragons and phoenixes had always been natural enemies, right?
As the Young Master of the Divine Feather Phoenix Clan, how could Jing Huang fall in love with him?!
Hearing Prime Emperor An Ze’s words, Yu Aofeng couldn’t help but feel baffled. He said that Jing Huang got him drunk on their wedding night? Then why did she carry Prime Emperor An Ze’s scent when she went to see him?
Could it be that she was tricking him on purpose so that he would give up?
After thinking everything through, Yu Aofeng’s heart was about to break.
He looked behind Prime Emperor Zhe An and could not help but frown. They had caused such a commotion. Jing Huang should have heard the commotion long ago. Why had she not come out?
“Where is Jing Huang?!”
Hearing Yu Aofeng mention Jing Huang, Prime Emperor Zhe An was immediately enraged. “How dare you call my wife’s name?”
Prime Emperor Zhe An’s expression was cold. He pointed at Yu Aofeng and said ruthlessly, “Yu Aofeng, is she mine only after you die?”
Yu Aofeng sneered. “Then let’s see if you have the ability to take my life or not!”
A battle between two Prime Emperor powerhouses could destroy the heavens and extinguish the earth. In order to protect the Divine Feather Continent, they had drawn up an enchantment to fight in the sky.
The weak Dragon race’s crown prince had long since risen to prominence. After dozens of moves, Yu Aofeng actually forced Prime Emperor An Ze to retreat repeatedly and vomit blood.
Seeing that Yu Aofeng was about to win, Prime Emperor Anze suddenly waved his sleeve and a sleeping beauty suddenly appeared in front of him.
Yu Aofeng recognized that person’s ident.i.ty and hurriedly retracted his move.
Receiving the backlash from his own energy, Yu Aofeng was actually injured to the point of flying back for hundreds of meters.
After stabilizing his body, Yu Aofeng stood in the distance with his sword in hand. His expression was unreadable as he stared at the motionless woman in front of Prime Emperor Zhe An. Seeing Jing Huang’s lifeless appearance, Yu Aofeng’s hand, which was holding his sword, suddenly trembled.
She was dead?
How could she have died before he could capture her and torture her?! “Ze An! What did you do to her?!”
Facing Yu Aofeng’s anger, Ze An forced a smile. “What did I do to her?”
Prime Emperor Zhe An looked at Jing Huang affectionately, but his words were heartless. “She betrayed me. She’s an ingrate. She’s a traitor to the Divine Feather Phoenix Clan! Shouldn’t I kill her?!”
Hearing this, Yu Aofeng’s eyes almost popped out. “You killed her!”
“I killed her?” Ze An bent down and caressed Jing Huang’s face while saying in pain, “I wanted to kill her, but she didn’t give me a chance at all. She would rather swallow medicine and commit suicide than spend the rest of her life with me!”
A hundred years ago, which was the second day after their marriage, Jing Huang had swallowed medicine and committed suicide in front of him.
She told Ze An that she had never loved him and that she was only using him. In her heart, there lived a lover who she fell in love with at first sight.
“Little b.a.s.t.a.r.d!” Ze An suddenly raised his head, and glared at Yu Aofeng with bloodshot eyes. He growled and asked, “What’s so good about you, little b.a.s.t.a.r.d?! Shouldn’t the phoenix race and your dragon race be natural enemies?! Why would she develop feelings for her natural enemy?!”
“What does she mean by falling in love at first sight?! How old was she back then?!”
When Yu Aofeng heard Ze An’s words, he instantly froze.
Did Jing Huang fall in love with him at first sight?
If Jing Huang had fallen in love with him at first sight, then more than two hundred years ago, she had asked Jing Ju for ownership of him and taken him as a slave just to… protect him?
If that was really the case, then what he owed Jing Huang was really something that he could not repay with his life.
“She… committed suicide by poison?” As if unable to believe that all of this was real, Yu Aofeng’s voice sounded very gentle.
Ze An laughed mockingly and said, “Yes, in order to protect your whereabouts, she consumed the Divine Extermination Pill!”
The moment the three words “Divine Extermination Pill” came out, Yu Aofeng’s pupils dilated and his lips turned pale.
The Divine Extermination Pill was a type of divine-rank medicinal pill. After consuming it, it could poison all experts below the Divine Master level.
There was no cure for the Divine Extermination Pill.
When he saw Yu Aofeng’s pained expression, Prime Master Ze An finally felt a little satisfied.
He gave Yu Aofeng a toying smile and said to Yu Aofeng, “Our Phoenix Clan can advance to become a Divine Master as long as we swallow a Divine Master Black Qing Sky Dragon. Yu Aofeng, are you willing to become my alchemy bone and be refined into a Divine Transforming Pill by me so that she can wake up and become a Divine Master?”
Ze An didn’t believe this little b.a.s.t.a.r.d would agree.
The phoenix and the dragon race were natural enemies. Jing Huang falling in love with a dragon was something that went against the heavens. He did not believe that Yu Aofeng would be willing to sacrifice himself just to save Jing Huang Yu Aofeng clenched the sword in his hand tightly and actually said, “If you dare to swear to the heavens that you will feed the Divine Transforming Pill to Jing Huang, then I am willing to become your alchemy bone!”
The mockery in Ze An’s eyes instantly disappeared.
“What did you say?” Ze An’s gaze turned sinister.
Yu Aofeng said again, “I said, if you dare to swear to the heavens that you will feed the Divine Transforming Pill to Jing Huang, I will be willing to be your alchemy bone!”
Hearing Yu Aofeng’s words, Prime Emperor Zhe An suddenly roared with laughter. “Hahaha, a dragon! A dragon is actually willing to die for a phoenix! Hahaha, what a
joke.”
Although he was smiling, his eyes were filled with tears. “Good, what a pair of lovers who have transcended fate!”
Prime Emperor Zhe An immediately bit his fingertip and swore a blood oath to the heavens.
After Prime Emperor Zhe An swore the blood oath, Yu Aofeng took a deep look at Jing Huang and immediately put down his weapon. He transformed into Black Qing Sky Dragon and laid in the sky without moving. He allowed Prime Emperor Zhe An to use a Dragon Locking Rope to capture him alive.
Sheng Xiao felt a sharp pain in his heart. He pressed his chest and understood what was going on.
It was a psychological trap.
The so-called psychological trap referred to the person who set up the trap trying to dig out the deepest and most terrifying memory in the depths of the challenger’s heart and let him experience the pain of having his heart destroyed again.
But Sheng Xiao had only lived for 27 years. He did not know anything about Prime Emperor Zhe An or Jing Huang. So, he was certain that he had seen his previous life.
In that case, it was not a coincidence that Jing Huang and Yu Huang looked similar. It was highly possible that Yu Huang was Jing Huang’s reincarnation! Sheng Xiao suddenly felt his heart ache when he thought of that possibility.
No wonder when he first saw Yu Huang at the Prosperous Capital’s Hospital, he couldn’t take his eyes off her.
Perhaps, this was the so-called fate.
Sheng Xiao thought that he was just a bystander, but he did not know that he was the one in the story. He vaguely understood that he had provoked the “heavens” and the heavens had deliberately let him experience this!
What a benevolent heavens.
After understanding the conspiracy, Sheng Xiao could no longer stay calm.
At that moment, Sheng Xiao suddenly realized that he had control over Yu Aofeng’s body.
The heavens handed control to him.
He could choose to become Prime Emperor Zhe An’s alchemy bone or he could choose to resist.
This was the essence of the Psychological Trap.
It presented to Sheng Xiao a chance to change the ending
It was difficult for anyone not to be tempted.
Prime Emperor An Ze brought Yu Aofeng all the way to a volcano. The entire mountain was Prime Emperor An Ze’s alchemy furnace.
Prime Emperor An Ze held the purple Dragon Locking Rope in his hand and suspended Black Qing Sky Dragon’s body above the magma. As if he felt a sense of compa.s.sion, he deliberately reminded Yu Aofeng, “Yu Aofeng, you still have one more chance to reject me.”
Sheng Xiao stared at Prime Emperor An Ze, and then at Jing Huang behind him.
He could feel the heat wave from the lava beneath him.
Sheng Xiao sighed. “My choice remains the
same!”
“Very good!” Prime Emperor An Ze smiled hideously. He pulled hard with his right hand and Sheng Xiao was pressed into the boiling red magma by a powerful energy.
The dragon body was swallowed by the magma. Sheng Xiao immediately felt the pain of his skin being burnt by fire. The magma stuck to his skin and soon burnt his dragon scales.
The Dragon Locking Rope on his body was lifted by Prime Emperor An Ze. Then, magma flowed out of Sheng Xiao’s body.
He left the magma sea. The flesh and blood on his body fell along the dragon bones. Sheng Xiao looked back at his abdomen and saw the white bones.
Ze An admired his sorry state for a moment and threw him into the magma sea again.
Once, twice, three times…
In the end, the white bone turned into a grayish-white liquid that turned into a Divine Transforming Pill.
Sheng Xiao had heard a rumor about the Upper World before.
It was rumored that there was a black sheep among the Black Qing Sky Dragon Race. There was a dragon who fell in love with a Phoenix Bird. He loved her so lowly that he did many treacherous things for her. In the end, he was driven to his death by that Phoenix Bird. When he died, his dragon flesh was peeled off, and even his dragon bone was made into alchemy bones.
Later, after experiencing it for himself, Sheng Xiao realized that the rumors were fake and the truth was…
In the past, there was a black sheep in the Divine Feather Phoenix Race. There was a Phoenix Bird that fell in love with the Black Heaven t.i.tan Dragon Race’s Crown Prince at first sight. It loved him so lowly that it did many despicable things for him. In the end, it obtained the heart of that dragon.
Later on, that Phoenix Bird committed suicide by swallowing medicine. In order to save its beloved Phoenix Bird, that dragon was willing to turn into alchemy bones. Its flesh was melted by the magma, and its body was refined into a Divine Transforming Pill to help the Phoenix Bird become a Divine Master.
It was said that the Black Qing Sky Dragon and the Divine Feather Phoenix were destined enemies.
But love could transcend fate.
