章 1386: Happiness and Despair

A flood of Embryonic Qi rushed out of Ryu's body, flooding into the body of the White Phoenix. The little creature, who had just been looking around somewhat adorably, was shocked awake before greedily swallowing. However, very soon, what was greed turned into worry and then fear. 

Accelerated growth was great, too much accelerated growth made it feel like it could die at any time. Its eyes flickered with a wronged light, but Ryu didn't stop. In his opinion, if this ticking time bomb was going to be in his body, it might as well become useful. 

More than a full minute later, the rush of Embryonic Qi came to a stop because Ryu had run out. It seemed that his Embryonic Qi still wasn't an endless flow, something hard for a Ryu, who had gotten used to being able to tap into an entire Plane of Existence for his qi, to accept. But it was what it was.
