Heaven-defying Phoenix - C102

Unknowingly, Jiu Mu Li was also immersed in cultivation, the star power was channeled into her body and absorbed by her, causing her to feel unprecedented satisfaction.

The sixth Star River’s Star Soul had indeed given her a great surprise, but she felt an unprecedented joy in her training. Although she was still lacking a lot in terms of advancement, the improvement in her strength still made her happy.

Not long after, the meridians in her body began to swell and ache. She knew that she had reached her limits and needed to polish them properly. Thus, she couldn’t help but open her eyes.

But very quickly, she was stunned, because she did not see Qin Zheng’s figure. Even the nearby bonfire had been completely extinguished, and their surroundings were pitch black.

“Where did he go?”

Jiu Mu Li frowned, in this pitch black environment, the surroundings were completely empty. Only she felt that it was a bit creepy.

This kind of feeling where she was the only one left in this world made her feel very flustered. The dark surroundings made her even more afraid.

“Why is he getting more and more cowardly?”

She cursed under her breath, but there was nothing she could do.

Qin Zheng acted mysteriously. Since he did not say anything, she wanted to know, so there was nothing he could do. He just ignored him, and felt extremely unwell in the dark.

“small lamp, I’m afraid of the dark, why don’t you have a chat with me?”

Jiu Mu Li looked at the glazed palace lamp and transmitted a thought over.

“Ding ding ding.”

The glazed palace lamp broke free from her palm and circled around her, finally stopping in front of her, laughing at her cowardice.

“It’s not that I’m timid, it’s just that this world is too bizarre.”

Jiu Mu Li was speechless. In her previous life, she would not have been afraid, but in this Sea of Nine Serenities, danger was everywhere. How could she be at ease?

The glazed palace lamp did not mock her this time, but instead intimately rubbed the dagger on her shoulder against her face.

“You’re still the best. You’re much better than that lousy lotus seed.”

Jiu Mu Li smiled.

“What’s wrong with me, what’s wrong with me …”

Just as Jiu Mu Li was thinking this, with a movement between her brows, the dissatisfied thoughts of the lotus seed gushed into her mind like floodwaters, and kept on repeating, showing extreme dissatisfaction.

Jiu Mu Li was dumbstruck, and quickly comforted.

With small lamp by her side, the fear in her heart slowly dissipated, and she simply lit a new bonfire.

After an unknown period of time, just as Jiu Mu Li was bored out of his mind, a figure approached from afar, and instantly landed on the beach.

“He’s back.”

When Jiu Mu Li realized that the person who came was Qin Zheng, he was extremely happy. At least Qin Zheng did not abandon her and just stayed by her side.

Seeing Qin Zheng approaching, Jiu Mu Li felt a sense of security.

“Where did you go?” she asked subconsciously.

Qin Zheng did not speak, and slowly walked in front of her, with a complicated look in his eyes.

“What’s going on? Is my entire body drenched?”

Jiu Mu Li frowned slightly. She discovered that Qin Zheng’s clothes were completely drenched, and there were even drops of water constantly dripping.

“Nothing.”

Qin Zheng said indifferently, the Spirit Qi on his body surged, and very quickly, the water on his clothes evaporated in an instant, and his entire being became refreshed again.

Jiu Mu Li opened his mouth, but felt that the other party had some secret matter to attend to, so he did not ask him any questions in the end.

“Look at this …”

Qin Zheng said, he extended his hand out in front of Jiu Mu Li, and opened his palm.

“Buzz!”

A warm ray of light suddenly emerged from his palm. It was as if a bright light had suddenly illuminated the entire beach.

Jiu Mu Li subconsciously closed his eyes, and only opened them after a long time, and looked at the object in Qin Zheng’s palm with a face full of shock!

“That’s right!”

Jiu Mu Li was truly shocked, because a small bead was lying on his palm.

The bead was smooth and round, giving off a dazzling, milky white glow. However, it was not dazzling, and at a glance, one could tell that it was not an ordinary object.

Luminous pearls?

Jiu Mu Li wanted to ask, but he felt that it wasn’t the case. Although the Night Pearl was also bright, it was definitely not as dazzling as the one before, nor was it so beautiful.

“You were looking for this just now?”

Jiu Mu Li was a little dumbstruck, although the bead looked precious, it did not seem to have any other use. For such a thing, going down to the ocean would not be a good idea.

Qin Zheng’s actions had always been beyond her expectations, so she was not surprised.

“Isn’t it beautiful?”

Qin Zheng’s mouth twitched, he suddenly pulled out a strand of hair and tied the bead together to form a necklace.

He looked at Jiu Mu Li with satisfaction for a moment, then said: “This is the brightest pearl in the sea, here, give it to you.”

As he said that, his eyes were filled with thick flames and an indescribable emotion. He earnestly placed the pearl on Jiu Mu Li’s neck.

The pearl was hidden in the depths of the ocean, and he had spent quite a bit of energy to get it. It was the best gift he had ever found.

Jiu Mu Li was stunned, she was unable to react for a moment, the pearl was already hanging around her neck, and she could feel a cold sensation.

“This is!”

She suddenly woke up from her stupor. Sensing Qin Zheng’s serious expression and the trace of gentleness in his originally ice-cold eyes, she suddenly panicked in her heart.

A love token?

She suddenly realised what Qin Zheng’s actions meant and understood what he meant. It was just that she was not willing to accept it now, as she did not like Qin Zheng at all.

“No, I can’t take it.”

She anxiously opened her mouth and plucked the pearl out, passing it to Qin Zheng: “This item is too valuable, I cannot take it.”

“I said I’d give it to you, so I’ll give it to you. There’s no need to return it.”

Qin Zheng’s face suddenly darkened, his tone revealing his determination.

“I don’t want it.”

Jiu Mu Li was also very determined, he wanted to give the pearl to Qin Zheng.

However, Qin Zheng suddenly regretted it, his gaze became cold and his tone became angry, “You have to take the things I give you, even if you don’t want it.”

“Then, have you ever asked if I’m willing? I’ve accepted enough favors from you, so I don’t dare to accept this pearl.”

Jiu Mu Li’s gaze was firm, and he did not retreat in the slightest.

After arguing for a long time, Qin Zheng seemed to feel that it was extremely impatient, and coldly said: “Stupid woman, do you know the magical effect of this pearl? It has the effect of avoiding water while wearing it, so even if you walk in the sea, you wouldn’t be pressured by the sea water.”

“What!”

Jiu Mu Li was shocked, she did not expect the pearl to have such a usage other than to look at the illumination, but the more it was like that, the more she did not dare take it, she did not plan to have any relationship with Qin Zheng.

Thus, she resolutely handed the pearl over to Qin Zheng, and said: “No matter how precious this thing is, I will not accept it.”

“You!”

Qin Zheng was furious, his face was cold to the extreme, his eyes flashed with anger, like a sharp sword, he rushed straight at Jiu Mu Li.

Jiu Mu Li did not back down at all. He met Qin Zheng’s gaze and insisted on bringing the pearl to Qin Zheng.

“She really isn’t moved at all. She doesn’t even want the things I give her?”

Qin Zheng was so angry that he felt like he was being humiliated. He laughed coldly and waved his hand. The pearl flew back into his hand and he threw it fiercely with a raise of his hand.

Bright pearls streaked across the sky in an arc, falling into the sea in an instant.

“Since you don’t want it, then just throw it away.”

Qin Zheng’s indifferent voice sounded in Jiu Mu Li’s ears, causing his heart to tremble. She did not expect Qin Zheng to be so stubborn.

“What are you doing? That pearl is a treasure! How can you just waste it like that!”

Jiu Mu Li was so angry that he almost died, but he also felt sorry for the treasure, because no matter what, Qin Zheng had wasted her energy and searched for her. Even if she did not want it, the other party should at least keep it, throwing it away like that was too much of a pity.

“If I said I’d throw it away, so be it. It’s mine anyway!”

Qin Zheng scoffed, too lazy to bother.

Jiu Mu Li clenched his teeth, in the end, he felt that it was not a good thing to continue like this, he immediately moved, and ran towards the location of the pearl.

Although the pearl had fallen into the sea, it was not far from the beach. There was still some light shining from the sea, so she could easily distinguish it.

“Find it and give it back to him, so it won’t run out.”

Qin Zheng didn’t understand anything, Jiu Mu Li felt that it would be better to use actions to express his feelings.

Just as she was about to dive into the water, an ice blue star suddenly lit up above Qin Zheng’s head.

In the blink of an eye, the seawater was completely frozen. In the blink of an eye, the seawater was completely frozen.

“You!”

Jiu Mu Li was so angry that she almost died. She angrily slapped her palm against the ice, but discovered that the frozen ice was like an iron board that she couldn’t move at all.

“Isn’t this perfect for you?”

Qin Zheng’s words were filled with anger, he walked to Jiu Mu Li step by step, his eyes shining with dense impatience.

Qin Zheng really did not understand what the woman in front of him was thinking. He clearly wanted to be good to her, but why did she keep on refusing?

He didn’t understand. Ever since he was young, no one had ever dared to disobey his orders. Unfortunately, this woman didn’t know what was good for her.

As someone who had always been domineering, how could he allow someone to reject him? Not to mention, it was also out of his good intentions. He felt completely humiliated, and could not control the anger in his heart in an instant.

He only believed in her, and only pampered her. Why was it that Jiu Mu Li was unwilling to accept him, and even hated him for it!

“What the hell are you thinking!”

Jiu Mu Li sensed Qin Zheng’s rudeness and ruthlessness and roared angrily. She was infuriated by’s unreasonable actions.

opened his eyes and took a deep breath, finally releasing her.

He knew he could not continue, or he would not be able to control himself.

Jiu Mu Li also opened his eyes, his pupils were blurry, but after coming back to his senses, he angrily glared at him.

Qin Zheng looked at her silently, and leisurely said: “… I’ll kiss you if you scold me. ”

Jiu Mu Li, “…”

To this day, Qin Sha was definitely the most sullen of them all!

Alright, if she doesn’t scold now, scolding is useless!

“Qin Zheng, you and I are both impossible!” Jiu Mu Li planned to properly reason with him.

“Why?”

Qin Zheng’s face became completely gloomy.

Yes, he had never understood why Jiu Mu Li was resisting his good intentions.

Jiu Mu Li immediately understood what the other party meant and felt that it was necessary to explain himself. He looked at Qin Zheng sincerely and asked: “Will you marry me?”

Jiu Mu Li asked seriously like never before, because she knew clearly that in Qin Zheng’s eyes, she had always treated him as an obedient pet. To put it bluntly, Qin Zheng did not even like her, he just wanted to spoil and spoil her.

Sure enough, after Jiu Mu Li asked that question, Qin Zheng’s entire being froze, and he was lost in thought.

“He really didn’t want to marry me.”

Jiu Mu Li had expected this long ago. He had only thought of spoiling her and treating her like a plaything, but he had never taken her seriously.

Funny.

Jiu Mu Li smiled, it was a very brilliant smile, a smile filled with ridicule.
