“What’s there to laugh about? Didn’t you ask Donghuang for a storage magic item that can hold living beings? Well, this is it!”
Youyou looked at the young man leaning against her, grinning contentedly as he held a jade belt, and felt irritated. She suspected he was plotting something not so good.
“This is the storage magic item?”
Feng Qing’an, with an unconscious smile on his face, immediately expressed surprise upon hearing this.
“What else did you think it was? A piece of ragged clothing belt worth delivering all the way to you?”
“That might be possible!”
Feng Qing’an laughed heartily. Even though this was the storage magic item he had asked for, its form had sparked his curiosity.
A few days ago, Donghuang whispered something into his ear, something about an enchanting man, causing his ear to itch. He didn’t catch it all, just the part about ‘my lord.’.
‘My lord?’ he thought, wondering if there was a title in front of ‘lord’. Was it his last name? Lord Feng?
Lord Feng? That seemed less likely than ‘husband’!
He didn’t get a chance to ask about it at the time because his mouth was sealed shut. He had forgotten about it until now when he had suddenly recalled it.
“Hmph, you’re getting ahead of yourself thinking of us like that. Let me summon Big Cluck to keep you entertained. After I’m done playing, I’ll go help
Donghuang!”
The little phoenix spat out these words irritably at the young man.
If it wasn’t for Donghuang’s particular instruction, she wouldn’t bother flying so far. The Ghost Nation was in shambles and the so-called Ghost Realm had been reduced to numerous interconnected small worlds.
To go from You Huang Ghost Country to the human world to find Feng Qing’an, she had to cross several small realms along specific secret paths, first to the realm where Nangong was, then to the human world, and finally find
Feng Qing’an.
“Don’t rush, explain to me how to use this thing first!”
Feng Qing’an tentatively infused his soul power into the belt, and immediately, his consciousness sensed a desolate space about two or three miles wide.
“Don’t you know how to use it already? Why do I have to teach you? Quickly summon Big Cluck, don’t waste time!”
The little phoenix glanced at him and could tell he had already started using it.
“Can this hold living beings?
Feng Qing’an frowned. The space inside the belt was as desolate as the Ghost Nation, if not worse. At least in the Ghost Nation, there was an occasional Yin Wind. Here, there was none.
“Sure, it can. I even tried putting the chicken you raised in there. It flapped around for quite a while without dying, which proves it can store living beings!”
Youyou answered seriously, with absolute certainty about the safety of the storage belt. However, before setting off, she had playfully toyed with the little rooster for fun.
“However, if you want to keep living beings in it, you need to regularly put in food and water. Otherwise, they will starve over time!”
“I have to feed them?”
Feng Qing’an asked disappointedly, his inquiry hinting at his insatiable desire, “Does any of this kind have mountains and waters inside, where the Five
Elements cycle and the sun and moon rise and fall?”
“Yes, there is!”
“Really?”
Feng Qing’an was surprised. He only asked casually without expectation, but he didn’t expect such a storage magic item to exist.
“Of course, but such a self-containing world-like Immortal Treasure, you might not get one even if you sell Donghuang. If you really want one, why not look around? Maybe there is one buried somewhere waiting for you to dig it
Although Youyou’s words were somewhat sarcastic, she was also serious.
She had witnessed Feng Qing’an go through his Chun Yang tribulation, and he even had an elder brother who would ascend to sainthood in the future. This guy’s past life must have been extraordinary, or else how could he have such benefits?
Who would know what treasures he had arranged for himself before reincarnation? Having a Qiankun Immortal Treasure that can form its own little world wouldn’t be surprising.
“I was asking casually!”
Feng Qing’an knew his request was a bit far-fetched. It was already quite good to have a storage magic item that could hold living things, let alone one with several square miles of space inside.
“Big Cluck, come out!”
A spark of fire erupted from his shoulder, turning into a small, colorful bird. Its feathers were clear and vivid and it chirped softly.
“Youyou, take it and play!”
“Wait a second!”
At that moment, the little phoenix wasn’t in a hurry anymore. Instead, she hopped over to Feng Qing’an’s vacant shoulder, her bright eyes fixated on him.
“What now?
Feng Qing’an pressed down his impatience.
“I flew such a long distance to deliver you this belt. Don’t I deserve a reward for my hard work?”
The little phoenix’s naturally drooping tail feather curved upwards.
“Hmm!”
“So, aren’t you planning to reward me?”
“I’ve already let Big Cluck keep you entertained. What else do you want? I don’t have any fancy gifts here that could suit a dignified little phoenix like you. Not one!”
Feng Qing’an was somewhat helpless. This little creature was really demanding.
“You do!”
The little phoenix stared at Feng Qing’an. “What do I have?”
Feng Qing’an was utterly confused. “Let me transform into the Great Earth Phoenix once, as a reward!”
“What Great Earth Phoenix?”
Feng Qing’an had a ‘what are you babbling about’ expression on his face, but he had an inkling of what she was referring to.
“Don’t try to fool me. I’ve noticed it. Some days ago, when Donghuang killed the Ghost King, it was as easy as killing the chicken you’re raising.. He just extended his palm forward, and the mountains on the ground transformed into fingers, then into a palm, and squished a flying ghost to death!”
