“I – I didn’t eat anything…” For the first time in her life, Feng Wu stammered.
Little Phoenix threw a dirty look at Feng Wu. “What on earth did you eat? Why are you being so sneaky about it?”
Feng Wu glared at Little Phoenix. “Who’s being sneaky? What are you getting at? How does it have anything to do with your abnormal flame?”
“It has everything to do with it!” Little Phoenix suddenly became very excited. Taking Feng Wu’s hand, it said, “Haven’t you realized? Whatever you ate just then has created a tiny flame in you!”
“What? Has it?” Feng Wu hadn’t noticed it herself.
“You haven’t noticed it?!” Little Phoenix glared at Feng Wu. “Close your eyes and check your astral space. Can you see a small island there now? And is there a tiny flame on that island like a lighthouse at night? Is there?”
Feng Wu had no idea where her master had found this bird. Despite its short temper, it was highly perceptive.
Following Little Phoenix’s instructions, Feng Wu found the flame it was talking about!
It was indeed as tiny as the bird said, and the flickering flame looked like it would be blown out by the lightest breeze.
“How… did it get here? Was I born with it?” Feng Wu asked involuntarily.
Little Phoenix rolled its eyes. “You wish.”
“Then how…”
“The flame wasn’t there before today. So, try your best to remember anything unusual you did today. Did you eat anything? Or touch anything?”
Feng Wu hadn’t eaten anything today, and the only “thing” she had touched was Jun Linyuan…
Feng Wu’s head went blank. Had she somehow drawn that flame out of Jun Linyuan when she gave him CPR?
Little Phoenix went on, “The owner of that flame is unfathomably powerful. That person is not only inscrutable and aloof, but very proud as well. I tried to communicate with the flame just then, but it gave me the cold shoulder! Hmph!”
Feng Wu was speechless.
Little Phoenix cried out in surprise. “Wait, this abnormal flame has a lightning quality? Exactly where did you get this flame? We’ve hit the jackpot!”
Feng Wu rubbed her forehead.
Unfathomably powerful, aloof and proud in personality, and the flame had a lightning quality… all of those pointed to one person only — Jun Linyuan.
How…
She was trying her best to steer clear of that guy, but why was she only getting more involved?
At the same time, Little Phoenix was still talking. “I want this abnormal flame! I want it and it only!!! Yes! I want it!”
Feng Wu rubbed her forehead. “Take it, then.”
“It’s still too little.” Little Phoenix shook its head. “I can’t consume it yet. I have to wait until it gets bigger.”
“Wait, then.” Feng Wu found the bird impossible to raise. It asked for too much!
“That’s why you need to help it grow.” Little Phoenix looked at Feng Wu in excitement.
Feng Wu asked, “What do you mean?”
“Eat more of it, just like what you did before!” Little Phoenix was exhilarated. “It won’t grow on its own. This is only a quarter of the flame. So, you know what to do.”
“I don’t. I really don’t…” Feng Wu was baffled. “What do you mean by eat more of it? And a quarter of what? Tell me everything!”
