Chapter 1756 - 1756 Resigned

1756 Resigned

At this moment, Miao Zhen was in a mess. Countless thoughts raced through his mind. Although the bloodline of the legendary three-eyed eagle clan isn’t comparable to that of the two ancient legendary fiend clans, it is still quite noble. The eagle in front of me was actually willing to contract with a human?

And the little girl beside her—she is a real red-gold heavenly phoenix! She was actually willing to give her face?

This isn’t the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is that not only have these two legendary fiends contracted with a human, but it is also with the same person!

Didn’t I just stay here for a while? Why is the outside world like this?

Besides, a thousand years is nothing compared to the tens of thousands of years of the red-gold heavenly phoenix and the legendary three-eyed eagle’s existence, right? How did—

Miao Zhen’s expression was blank. He looked at Tuan Zi and then at Zi Chen with slightly trembling fingers. “You… you guys…”

Tuan Zi’s eyes lit up as she bragged, “I’ve followed A’Yue longer than Zi Chen!”

Zi Chen looked back at her.

Tuan Zi made a face, her chubby face full of smugness.

Zi Chen’s eyes flickered, and he calmly looked away.

Miao Zhen pointed at Tuan Zi and almost lost his breath. “You—this!”

What is there to brag about!?

Get this straight—you’re an incomparably noble ancient legendary fiend, a red-gold heavenly phoenix! Do your clansmen know you’re happy here?

Even though the relationship between the great phoenix dragon clan and the red-gold heavenly phoenix clan was very subtle, and they were used to not liking each other, Miao Zhen couldn’t help but feel heartbroken for the entire red-gold heavenly phoenix clan. How did such a weirdo appear?!

Not only has she contracted with the human race, but she also serves the same master as the legendary three-eyed eagle. Most importantly, she is so happy!?

Miao Zhen did not understand; he really didn’t understand.

When he saw Tuan Zi previously, he had his doubts. Firstly, he felt that it was quite strange that she had already transformed into a human at such a young age. Secondly, she had been holding the corner of the human woman’s clothes tightly and looked very intimate.

However, he had been thinking about dealing with his ancestor’s heirloom just now, so he didn’t have the time to think too much about it.

Who knew that this would happen!?

Chu Liuyue gently rubbed Tuan Zi’s head and smiled at Miao Zhen. “Senior Miao Zhen, I’m sorry. Tuan Zi is still young and innocent by nature. Children’s words carry no harm; don’t take it to heart.”

Miao Zhen’s lips twitched. Children’s words carry no harm… I have lived for so many years, but I never expected that these words could actually be used for red-gold heavenly phoenixes!

Miao Zhen took a deep breath and closed his eyes. Then, he held his forehead in pain.

Even though he didn’t have a physical body now, he still felt an incomparable headache! What is this group of people!?

At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded from the distant forest. It was as if someone was coming this way.

Miao Zhen’s expression darkened, and he glanced over.

Chu Liuyue exchanged glances with Rong Xiu. The newcomer should be one of the four people who has participated in the Thousand Summit and are still here.

But after a while, the footsteps gradually faded away. It seemed like… that person had left.

Soon, the footsteps disappeared completely.

The person had already left.

Chu Liuyue subconsciously looked at Miao Zhen. If that person had come just now, he might’ve been able to obtain their ancestor’s heirloom from Miao Zhen. After all, compared to outsiders like Zi Chen, his own juniors are more suitable candidates.

However, Miao Zhen’s expression was calm as if… he were already used to it.

“Actually, over the years, the Thousand Summit has been held quite a few times. Every time, many good juniors come in. A few of them have found this area like the one just now.” Miao Zhen suddenly spoke, his tone much calmer. “But nobody has walked through the woods and really come here.”

Chu Liuyue actually saw a trace of desolation on his face. Actually, thinking about it carefully, it is understandable. After all, Miao Zhen is a great phoenix dragon. If possible, he should want to leave this heirloom to the most outstanding junior.

As he has said, he no longer has a physical body. There is no point in leaving this heirloom with him. Unless there is really no other way, why would he choose Zi Chen? After experiencing disappointment too many times, his passion will eventually cool down.

“In the battle back then, my body was destroyed, and my strength was exhausted. Although I’m surviving here, I’m also attached to this lake and can’t leave. In addition, opportunities are the most unpredictable and the strongest. Those children aren’t fated with the ancestor and me.”

Miao Zhen had actually thought things through long ago. Although it was inevitable that he would feel regretful, life didn’t go as intended even for him.

He looked at Zi Chen, and there seemed to be waves in his eyes. “These clan juniors have entered this place one after another, but they haven’t discovered my existence. And you… are not a member of my clan. It can even be said that you have nothing to do with the great phoenix dragon clan, but you still came here…”

Perhaps this is really the will of the heavens! Miao Zhen suddenly paused mid-sentence.

Actually, there was no point in saying these words. Zi Chen was unwilling to accept this heirloom and had already contracted with Chu Liuyue.

These two points were enough to make Miao Zhen give up his initial idea. You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink. The only pity is that after today, I still don’t know how long I will have to wait to find a suitable successor…

Rong Xiu suddenly asked, “Senior Miao Zhen, are you really willing to be trapped here forever?”

Miao Zhen was stunned. Of course, I’m indignant! I have yet to take revenge on Miao Yang! I have yet to get back what I have lost! But now that I have almost nothing and have finally found an heir, it is unsuitable. What else can I do?

He looked at Rong Xiu in surprise. “What… do you mean?”

Rong Xiu raised his eyebrows slightly. “Nothing. To be honest, Clan Leader Miao Yang was very rude to Yue’er and me previously and made things difficult for us. He said bluntly at the Thousand Summit that if Yue’er and I don’t erase our memories of coming here, we’ll be imprisoned on Godly Dragon Island forever.”

“You’re the heir to the heirloom of the great phoenix dragon’s ancestor. Be it talent or anything else, you’re better than Miao Yang. As long as the truth is clarified back then, the position of clan leader will definitely change hands! At that time, you can take back what originally belonged to you, and we can leave Godly Dragon Island openly. It’s killing two birds with one stone. Why not?”

Miao Zhen narrowed his eyes. “You want to form an alliance with me?”

Rong Xiu smiled frankly. “It would be our honor to be on good terms with you.”

Miao Zhen closed his eyes. Countless images surged from the depths of his mind.

After a long while, he said in a low voice, “…I don’t have a physical body. If I leave this place, my soul will dissipate.”

Rong Xiu said, “What if we can help you reconstruct your body?”
