Female lead: No, it's me again??

Chapter 234 The Featherless Phoenix?

Back when they were causing trouble for others, they were so arrogant.

Xuan Li was stunned.

That makes a lot of sense.

"If I'm not human... then what am I?"

She said this with particular trepidation.

"The Phoenix Clan".

"Phoenix!?"

Xuan Li nearly jumped up, and said nervously, "The legendary phoenix? Like the one in Fengning Village? Isn't that dangerous?"

Those who can transform into human form are at least demigods. If people find out, wouldn't she lose her freedom?

"Ah Li, you don't need to worry about that. With me here, no one can hurt you."

How could ordinary people like Ali possibly aspire to such a status?

Xuan Li was still anxious, "What if everyone from Chaoyang Holy Palace gangs up on me? Ya Ya, you can't possibly beat them!"

"Chaoyang Holy Palace?"

Shen Ya scoffed, "That's impossible, I have no rivals."

Shen Ya said this with great confidence.

Is she just a decoration when she uses the Ethereal Spirit Butterfly?

If you anger her, she'll eat it all!

Xuan Li: "......"

Her lips twitched slightly. "Although I know you're bragging, I'll still choose not to call you out on it."

No rivals?

What's going on?

However, with Shen Ya's careful intervention, Xuan Li's mood improved somewhat.

After offering a long string of comforting words, Shen Ya remained silent.

Sure enough, some guys don't change their annoying ways just because they lose their memories.

However, she was magnanimous and didn't hold a grudge against the bird that hadn't regained its memory.

Xuan Li began to wonder about herself. "You said I'm a phoenix, so what kind of phoenix am I? White? Black? Golden or red?"

Shen Ya's gaze shifted slightly, and she said slyly,

"The featherless phoenix."

Xuan Li's face immediately fell, adopting a cold expression.

You're calling me a chicken?

A phoenix without feathers looks just like a plucked chicken.

Shen Ya raised her voice slightly, "I didn't."

Mentioning the past, Xuan Li suddenly became more talkative, "Well... I'm leaving now. My friends, are they all doing well?"

Will they be very angry if they leave without knowing it?

"They're living a very comfortable life!"

“They all gain 20 pounds. When you’re not around, they act like tyrants, never behaving properly.”

Xuan Li raised an eyebrow, "That's an exaggeration?"

She wasn't sure if she'd misheard, but it seemed like Ya Ya was quite disgusted...

What's there to complain about?

"Ah."

There are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkeys are kings.

How could it not be moisturizing?

Seeing that her mood had improved, Shen Ya finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Ah Li, I'm sorry.

I still hope you learn those truths a little slower.

Slower.

"Just live well."

Xuan Li didn't want his disappearance to make them sad.

Having learned about part of her past, Xuan Li's fear and unease gradually subsided. "If I accept this trial token, will my identity be exposed?"

She still remembered that when Feng Siyue entered her information with her blood, a message appeared: 'Identity: Human'.

Shenya glanced at the gems on her body. "No, they will only show that you are human."

"So you still want to go to the Chaoyang Holy Palace because of Hongyue?"

Xuan Li shook his head. "It's not because of him, it's because of Feng Siyue. With me included, she has four divine beasts, right?"

"If she still fails in the trial with this setup, then it's really unacceptable."

Although she doesn't know anything now, who throughout history has had such a powerful helper?

She had to ensure that Feng Siyue could enter the Chaoyang Holy Palace smoothly and accomplish what she needed to do.

Then, He Feng Siyue went to visit the Yanxu that Qingqing had mentioned, to see what kind of world it was.

Shen Ya was somewhat speechless. "Your ambition is truly grand."

With four divine beasts guarding Feng Siyue through the trials, she could have entered directly.

"Yeah, I think so too."

The oblivious Xuan Li didn't realize Shen Ya was subtly mocking her. As she spoke, drowsiness slowly crept into her mind, and her eyelashes trembled slightly.

"Ya Ya, I'm sleepy, I'm going to take a nap."

"Go to sleep."

Inside the dark purple space, Xuan Li blinked in confusion.

"It seems like it's been over a month since we last met. Did you miss me?"

In the purple mist, the tiny bud had grown to the size of a forearm, with seven or eight leaves growing on its forked branches, and golden veins covering its entire body, making it incredibly dreamlike.

Hearing her words, the little leaves bent slightly, as if they were shy.

Xuan Li chuckled and walked over to gently stroke its leaves. "So cute."

The golden patterns shone brightly, as if echoing her words.

Stroking its leaves, Xuan Li recalled Shen Ya's words, "Did I abandon you once too?"

"Because of that person."

The leaves on the small tree seemed to freeze, and then Xuan Li felt a wet touch on his fingertips.

She looked up and saw that there were more dewdrops among the small leaves.

"Are you crying?"

Xuanli sensed its mournful cry.

She lowered her eyes.

So, did she really give up everything?

The little one's emotional outburst once again confirmed what Ya Ya had said.

She sat cross-legged on the transparent floor, pulled out the white hairpin from her hair, and stared blankly at the purple-gold beads as she touched them.

“When I saw you before, I felt very sad, as if I had lost something very important. Now that I think about it, it was related to him, wasn’t it?”

The hairpin remained silent.

Xuan Li didn't care whether it responded or not, and continued, "Ya Ya said I'm not a demon, so my worries have become nothing but smoke and clouds, dissipating with the truth."

“Those forgotten memories will awaken with time.”
