Chapter 150: Source World 2 (part 1 of 2)

The Little Phoenix still hasn’t broken it’s shell after all, and would thus not have much energy. Soon enough, it curled up in it’s egg and gradually fell asleep against An Ying’s chest. But in the midst of it’s sleep, it could vaguely sense a burning and scorching sight trained on it.

An Ying unmovingly looked at the sweetly sleeping egg. He couldn’t tear his gaze away from it, and unconsciously watched it for a long time.

He had waited for so many years, and had finally waited until the other had returned to his side once more. The once heavy and long yearnings and regrets, were just like an eternally unreachable dream. The various scenes that he went through with the Little Phoenix couldn’t help but flash in his mind, all of which were vivid. Not a single one was forgotten.

Looking back to the first time he laid his eyes upon the gorgeous and dazzling Phoenix, dressed in crimson attire, with an inherently haughty look; Recalling the Little Phoenix’s earnest appearance when he looks at him, with those rippling pair of eyes that reflects the entire galaxy. When smiling, it’s as if the galaxy is flowing in the pupils of those eyes, that lingers even in his dreams; Recalling the seven reincarnations he had just experienced. Even though he didn’t have his past memories in his reincarnations, even though his Little Phoenix’s form changes in each and every reincarnation. But his essence remains clear and pure, equally making his heart throb.

The intertwining scene elapses, and finally came to a stop to that scene he never wanted to recall, — That moment when he learned that the other had jumped down the Yu Yuan.

Up to this day, he can still remember that overflowing deep sense of despair and madness crawling all over him, as well as the sharp piercing pain in his heart that saps all of his strength. The day was obviously very bright, but he only felt as if he’s struggling in the deepest depths of the night. Moreover, this was a very long and endless dark night.

A familiar pain surges once again. An Ying clenched his hand, lowered his eyes, and hid all the emotions underneath them. He then moved his regained treasure closer to his chest, until it was right against his chest.

As the Demon Emperor, An Ying’s residence is located in the Demon Valley in the Demon Realm.

Looking from a distance, the vast Demon Valley could be seen looming in the clouds and mist. The fertile and vast hinterland in the center of the valley is precisely the main town of the Demon Realm. The prosperity of the main town is no less than the prosperity of the Human Realm’s capital. Moreover, the Fu Ying Palace, where the Demon Emperor lives, is suspended high above the main town.

The entire palace opens to reveal a separate space full of lingqi, which wondrously invades the mysterious principles of the sun and moon. It lies in the void, intercepting the extreme silence in the extreme noise. The space within is quite large, and appears to be an independent world.

The six demon servants under him cooperated to form a formation, while pouring enough spiritual power into the center of the formation at the same time. The teleportation formation began to slowly glow with dazzling red lights, and subsequently opened with a loud rumble the moment the spiritual power was filled up, then finally transported them to the entrance of Fu Ying Palace in a flash.

Gorgeous sunset-colored clouds surrounds the entrance. However, they weren’t really meant to increase the ambiance, but were meant to conceal the mist in the surrounding area. These mists appears very infinitesimal, but contains an extremely powerful corrosive strength. Cultivators in god level and below cultivation can’t resist the attack of the spirit body even with the cover of magic tools.

But when An Ying drew near, the mist and sunset-colored clouds automatically faded away, revealing the extraordinarily imposing palace gate. Stepping into the gate, the guards along the sides hurriedly knelt down to salute. The Little Phoenix, on the other hand, is still sound asleep in An Ying’s bosom. The comfortable heat coming from the sleeping egg, also made his heart heat up.

After the previous reincarnation of the stay-at-home dad Nicholas, who raised a little fox. An Ying not only became a dad once more, but also raised a Little Phoenix, that is more difficult to raise and serve than the little fox. While carrying around the treasured egg in his bosom, the great Demon Emperor personally used those Legendary Spiritual Treasures, that could only be seen but cannot be bought, to make a ‘small nest’ for the egg to sleep.

Of course, An Ying prefers to always let his treasured egg sleep in his bosom. But sad to say, his lingqi isn’t enough to support the other’s growth at all. In terms of birth, the Phoenix is an ancient god, that is much more noble than a Demon Emperor like him. In order for it to hatch as soon as possible, it still needs to be nurture by the Fire Profound Stone and Guiyuan bead everyday for it to have a successful growth.

Both of these Immortal items can only be discovered but not sought. Especially the Fire Profound Stone, of which even a small piece is really hard to come by. But An Ying very extravagantly planned to use it to carve a miniature palace suitable for the egg to live.

The Phoenix itself is a very dazzling existence, and naturally likes beautiful and shiny things as well. — Everyone in the Four Realm knows that god Shen Tong lives in a gorgeous palace that can make one’s hair stand up in anger in the Heavenly Realm. In addition to this, the Phoenix’s nobleness and squeamishness were so high that it is beyond human’s reach. The chicks of Firebirds originating in the South China Sea, and flies to the Northern Sea; isn’t limited to nesting in the Chinese parasol tree, doesn’t need food for cultivation, nor does it need to drink liquan. Raising a Phoenix is definitely more laborious and taxing than raising anything else, and those with slightly weaker capabilities can never raise it at all.

In order to have an unrivaled treasure, one should naturally have the ability to match it first. For the great Demon Emperor, he is absolutely willing to gladly endure hardships to raise the Little Phoenix. He would even nervously guard it at all times, lest others would covet it.

An Ying also modified the monotonous Fu Ying Palace. Replacing the black eaves with multicolored glaze, the window curtains and muslin canopy with bright and warm colors, while the walls were inlaid with precious spiritual stones. All the courtyards were planted with Chinese parasol trees. The special personnel were ordered to fetch water from the Liquan below the Xiangshan in the Northern Sea every day, and to fetch the freshest fruits from the black bamboo forest in the South China Sea.

By the time the egg had dazedly woken up, it was already nighttime. The moonlight in the Demon Realm has always been more beautiful than the sun. It was currently held in the palm of the hand by An Ying, while ignorantly and inquisitively listening to the other party’s introduction of the ins and outs of Fu Ying Palace. As within An Ying’s expectations, the Little Phoenix was very happy with the shiny spiritual stone embellishments in Fu Ying Palace. After showing the whole Fu Ying Palace, An Ying then leaped above the highest building in the palace, and stood atop the eaves, overlooking the entire main town.

Being high above the wind, watching the tumbling sea of clouds in the horizon, the prosperous lights underfoot, and the distant half towering valley in the night fog, which were ethereal and vast. This kind of magical and beautiful scenery will inevitably give a sense of carefree feeling with a deep sense of wonderment, and also evokes the innate love of flying and freedom in the Phoenix’s blood.

The round egg couldn’t help form wanting to go forward even more, so much so that it twisted and turn to try to break away from An Ying’s hold. It was immersed in looking at the scenery, but An Ying only had his eyes on it, with an affectionate gaze that is denser than the moonlight, as he calmly said: “Tong Tong, this is the Demon Realm. So long as you like, all the things in the Demon Realm will be yours to choose from.”

“Fu Ying Palace is full of Lingqi, which can assist to properly nourish your body, help you break out the shell as soon as possible, in order to become the most beautiful Little Phoenix. From now on, we will live here together. I will be by yours side each day. As long as I am here, I will never let you suffer any unhappiness and grievances.”

Having said all of this, An Ying finally said with emphasis once more: “Tong Tong, you’re name is Shen Tong. I am An Ying. I am your future Immortal partner. You only need to firmly keep this point in mind. The rest can be completely disregarded, — Do you understand?”

The egg finally turned it’s gaze away from the scenery and back to An Ying. It’s round body also turned around. The soft immature-sounding voice, which was simply worth hearing a thousand times, sounded: “.…..what’s an Immortal partner? Can that be eaten?”

An Ying immediately felt sluggish, then gave a nod afterwards, “Um, it can be eaten.”

The great Demon Emperor shamelessly instilled crooked thoughts to the still ignorant little one: “Not only is it thick and long, but it’s also very delicious. However, only after two people have become Immortal partners can it be eaten. Moreover, there can only be one Immortal partner in an cultivator’s lifetime. Understand?”

The Little Phoenix, which had yet to break out from it’s eggshell, certainly didn’t understand, but really wants to eat that thing when it gets hungry. An Ying immediately brought it back to the inner palace hall, to go and soak the egg in the spiritual medicine that can nourish it’s body.

The demon servants had already filled up the bath with spiritual medicine liquid. But the Little Phoenix is of fire attribute, and absolutely dislikes water. So, the moment An Ying brought it into the water with him, it still strove to turn it’s body to express dissatisfaction, and even struggled to jump away.
