Chapter 8: Ancient Phoenix, Zixie (1)
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Gu Ruoyun's gaze traveled up the robe, stopped on the man's face and that moment, he was unable to turn away anymore.
In the East Peak Mainland, Supreme Jin was undoubtedly the most captivating among all the good-looking men that she has ever seen. But this man in front of her was no less handsome than Supreme Jin, but even better looking...
The man donned a purple long robe, with the sleeves decorated with golden lines, appearing dignified and resplendent. His black hair was lazily scattered behind him as a soft wind blew and with it, a charming scent lingered. His looks were so handsome that it seemed to have made all creation lose its color. The wind lifted the purple cuff, making the seductive purple flame in between the man's eyes seemed more sinister.
All of a sudden, the man raised his hand and a breeze swept past. When Gu Ruoyun regained her senses, she was already in the man's embrace...
"This is the master chosen by the Ancient Divine Pagoda? She's bony to the touch, not comfortable at all. Little girl, you need to replenish your nutrition and only when you've put on more weight, then you can warm my bed."
Gu Ruoyun's face darkened instantly. She raised a foot to kick him, but the man was already prepared. He grabbed her foot with a slight smile.
"Little girl, you were indeed strong in the past but now, you are only a small fry in the Qi collection level two. Do you think you can sneak up on me?"
Gu Ruoyun retracted her foot. She looked at the handsome dignified man in front of her and asked, "Who are you?"
"Little girl, you are too cold. I brought you all the way here from the East Peak Mainland and you have forgotten about me?" The man continued reluctantly, "Luckily I saved your life that time. If it weren't for me, you would have been utterly destroyed, body and soul."
East Peak Mainland?
Gu Ruoyun was slightly startled, "You're the Ancient Divine Pagoda."
When he heard this, the man's lips twitched, "Ancient Divine Pagoda? Have you ever seen a pagoda turned into a man? I am the Ancient Divine Pagoda's companion beast, Zixie!"
"Zixie? Ancient Phoenix Zixie?"
The people of West Spirit Mainland may not know about Zixie's existence, but everyone in the East Peak Mainland knew that name.
Legend has it that The Ancient Phoenix Zixie held the power to break the heavens and earth. With just one breath, he can mow an empire to the ground. His power was so strong that it made everyone's heart trembled.
But Zixie had disappeared since tens of thousands of years ago. Who would've expected him to show up here...
"Girl, you're stunned aren't you?" Zixie curled his lips and smiled, "While you were running for your life, you had already made a contract with the Ancient Divine Pagoda. As long as your soul remains intact, the Ancient Divine Pagoda will follow your soul forever. But the bond between the Ancient Divine Pagoda and I has been sealed. If it was broken on the East Peak Mainland, those old demons would definitely have noticed it. Hence, I could not show myself and helped you. It wasn't until we reached the West Spirit Mainland that I was able to break the seal..."
Gu Ruoyun nodded, "I see. This Ancient Divine Pagoda was given to me by my grandfather, but I didn't know what it was for..."
"I won't be able to fully explain the uses of the Ancient Divine Pagoda to you in such a short time. However, you do know that the Divine Pagoda is an object left behind since ancient times right? How would an artifact from the ancient times be useless? Moreover..."
Zixie smilingly patted Gu Ruoyun's head, "Didn't you challenge someone? With this Ancient Divine Pagoda, I guarantee that within a month, I'll make you more powerful than him!"
He knew that with Gu Ruoyun's battle experience from her previous life, she would have had a fifty percent chance of defeating the young master of the Ling family. But what he intended to do was give her confidence that she can beat the enemy...
