Chu Xiaoxiao has a delicate, doll-like face, and her sweet smile can easily put anyone at ease. She looks adorable and harmless, the sort of girl who inspires tenderness. In truth, she is ruthless, cold-blooded, and merciless.
A phoenix reborn from the ashes: what kind of upheaval will she bring? Ten thousand years ago, the demon phoenix and evil dragon fell together. What secrets lie hidden behind their deaths?
Highlights:
A beautiful young woman gave the short girl in front of her a disdainful glance and said haughtily, “Little witch, Brother Crown Prince has already asked the emperor to arrange our marriage. I'll soon be the crown princess. Brother Crown Prince is not only handsome, but also has a cultivation talent of level eight. He's the most outstanding of all the princes. Every girl in Fengdu dreams of marrying him!”
“Oh!” The little girl merely replied, her gaze fixed on the lotus pond beside them.
The young woman was displeased. Why wouldn't this little witch get angry?
She gave a cold snort, a smug look in her eyes, and continued, “I am the phoenix chosen by Heaven. Brother Crown Prince and I will rule the world together!” Then she looked down at the girl with scorn. “But someone like you will probably never find a husband!”
Watching her walk away, the exquisitely pretty little girl shook her head and sighed. “Even a wild chicken can become a phoenix these days. What kind of world is this?”
Another highlight:
Chu Xiaoxiao glanced at the proud-looking winged horned horse and said disdainfully, “You? You're not even worth me lifting a finger for!” She raised her chin. “Kitty, beat it up!”
Thud! Something heavy hit the ground.
Chu Xiaoxiao turned to look at the big white tiger sprawled on the ground and said, exasperated, “Kitty, you really are hopeless! Aren't you the King of Beasts? Why are you so scared of that thing that's barely even a horse?”
The White Tiger King's face twisted, and it seemed you could hear its teeth grinding. With an angry roar, it charged at the winged horned horse and beat it mercilessly. Seeing the horse reduced to an unrecognizable mess, it felt a little better. It then strode gracefully over to Chu Xiaoxiao and said through gritted teeth, “I told you not to call me Kitty!”
Chu Xiaoxiao chuckled and patted its head. “Kitty really is the King of Tigers. You're amazing!”
The White Tiger King's mouth twitched. It waved a paw at her and growled, “Call me Ye Qiong!”
Chu Xiaoxiao gave it a reproachful look. “Kitty, I'm your master. How can you be so rude to me? That's completely out of line!”
A third highlight:
With a sweet smile on her adorable doll-like face, she looked at the person frozen into an ice sculpture and lightly struck it with her palm.
Crack!
The ice shattered and disappeared, and the person trapped inside broke into several pieces. Her small, fair hand waved a few times, piecing the fragments back together into something resembling a person.
Chu Xiaoxiao crouched in front of the human-shaped thing, smiling. “I'm magnanimous, with a heart big enough to sail a boat. You tried to kill me, but I still left your body intact. Aren't I kind?” She blinked and stared at his wide, lifeless eyes, as if waiting for an answer.
Everyone around them broke into a cold sweat. That counted as leaving a body intact? And she thought she was kind?
Seeing their expressions, Chu Xiaoxiao went over to the stunning man, whose face held three parts righteousness and seven parts wickedness, and hugged his arm. She looked up at him innocently. “Xie, what's wrong with them? Their expressions are so strange!”
Amusement glimmered in his enchanting gold-and-silver eyes. His lips curved into a wicked smile as Zi Mingxie wrapped an arm around her slender waist and said indulgently, “Nothing. They think you're right, too!”
“Oh...”
Her voice drew out as her icy gaze swept over the onlookers. The crowd scattered at once.
One devoted couple only!!!
The beasts and Xiaoxiao:
Xiao Hei: “I was a cat in my last life, and I'm a cat again in this one. You bullied me then, and you're still bullying me now. What did I do to deserve this?”
“Don't you feel honored? This is a match made in Heaven!”
Ye Qiong: “I told you not to call me Kitty!”
“You look like a kitty!”
Fei Yun: “Master, I'm not a horse to begin with, so of course I don't look like one!”
