Feng Wu is the only Golden-Winged Phoenix in the world.
As a member of the most venerable Phoenix lineage on the continent, Feng Wu was born divine.
But even gods must endure two heavenly tribulations.
One is the tribulation of death, and the other is the tribulation of life.
"Third Brother, is there any way to protect Xiao Wu from his tribulations?" Feng San asked.
"They're decreed by the Heavenly Dao. There's no way to change them." Feng Er's eyes were full of tenderness.
They had doted on Feng Wu since he was little. Who could have known that their youngest little phoenix would have to face two heavenly tribulations?
Feng Wu feared neither heaven nor earth. He was the most noble phoenix, a true god by birth!
Confidently stepping into the path of reincarnation, Feng Wu lost his memories and became a little chirping bird spirit.
There, he met Ning Yichen, the most brilliant young man of the human dynasty.
At their first meeting, the youth wore white and was peerlessly elegant.
At their next meeting, the young man wore a gauzy veil. His raven hair and starry eyes made him breathtakingly beautiful.
Feng Wu spent day after day and night after night at Ning Yichen's side.
He thought Ning Yichen would make him his Dao companion,
that they would seek the Great Dao together and fight the demon race.
But just as Feng Wu, filled with joy, put on his red wedding robes, Ning Yichen pierced his heart with a sword and took his spirit essence.
Looking at Ning Yichen's beautiful, cold eyes,
Feng Wu thought: That's right, I'm only a little chirping bird spirit. How could Ning Yichen ever fall for me?

Ning Yichen hadn't expected Mi Wu to die. He had clearly sealed Mi Wu's spiritual meridians and every acupoint in his body.
Confusion filled Ning Yichen's dark eyes. He clutched his chest as dense pain spread through his body with every breath, like a slow execution.
Blood kept pouring out, yet Ning Yichen couldn't feel any pain.
"Have you heard? That noble one in the Hall of Legends is only one step away from godhood."
"We already knew that, but apparently he refuses to become a god. They say he's waiting for someone through reincarnation."
Feng Wu spat out a sunflower seed as he munched away. Someone as cold and heartless as that would bring bad luck to anyone who got close to him.
You heartless, ungrateful wretch. No wonder you can't become a god!
But the Heavenly Dao insisted that he get close to him!
Feng Wu saw Ning Yichen again. He frowned at the breathtakingly beautiful young man across from him.
Ning Yichen's once-black eyes had turned a dull silver.
His beautiful, silky hair had also turned a pale blue.
"Is it you?" Ning Yichen's unfocused eyes turned toward Feng Wu. The delicate corners of his eyes were faintly red, making him look both cool and magnificent.
Feng Wu clicked his tongue. Who was he? He was the little phoenix everyone loved!
*
Ning Yichen offered up his bones in sacrifice to the Heavenly Dao, just to give the little chirping bird another chance to reincarnate.
Looking at the youth's clear eyes, Ning Yichen didn't know whether he still remembered.
When the youth's aura suddenly changed and a fiery red mark appeared between his brows,
Ning Yichen finally understood that Feng Wu was a phoenix.
The Phoenix lineage was born divine. So his little bird really was a god.
"That's good. No one can hurt you now." Ning Yichen smiled. Looking at the long sword pointed at his heart, he slowly closed his eyes.
Looking at Ning Yichen as he lay dying, Feng Wu felt a pang of sorrow.
That heartless, ungrateful wretch could die for all he cared! He didn't care!
Still, Feng Wu carried Ning Yichen back. The young man's cold, impassive features held not a trace of life.
