Volume 2: The Great Tribulation of the Lich Chapter 259: The Bird Knows to Return When It Gets Tired of Flying
Southeast of the prehistoric times.
Fengqi Mountain stretches for thousands of miles, towering and undulating, with its main peak reaching straight into the clouds, steep and precipitous. The paradise hidden in the void for hundreds of thousands of years finally revealed its true appearance. The mist surrounding the mountainside gradually dissipated, revealing the dense forests and many rare birds and animals.
Fengqi Mountain was quiet at this time.
Even though a bloodbath had just broken out in the ancient world, no one came to disturb the tranquility of Fengqi Mountain.
Perhaps it was because the masters of Fengqi Mountain were not here, or perhaps it was because the spirit of life in charge of Fengqi at this time - Mu - liked quietness.
Therefore, most of the wild spirits and monsters in Fengqi Mountain stayed peacefully in their respective territories, either practicing, sleeping, or reproducing.
On the small island in Fengqi Valley, the tree of life is lush and leafy, its vigorous and upright figure holds its head high towards the sky, the shadows of branches and leaves overlap, and the whole body is surrounded by a lingering spiritual energy, like a dream; the crystal green leaves are glowing with a faint white halo, and the halos of thousands of branches and leaves combine to form a holy divine glory.
In the attic on the island, a woman with extraordinary temperament sat quietly in front of the window. Her skin was whiter than snow, her eyes were like warm spring water, with infinite soft light, and there was a hint of bookish air between her brows.
There were two little girls accompanying her.
The dragon girl on the left has a quiet temperament, red lips and white teeth, and her skin is as smooth as a baby's. She is wearing a pink dress and is indescribably cute and lovely.
Compared to her elder sister, the dragon girl Xi on the right is a bit more mischievous. Her big watery eyes look left and right, and her long and thick eyelashes are like two small brushes that brush back and forth playfully, looking very naughty.
Several elves flapped their transparent wings and flew up and down. They either stopped in the dragon girl's hair, carefully wiping her crystal dragon horns, or held rare spiritual fruits and continuously fed the dragon girl.
“Hah!”
When the green light streaked across the sky, a clear cry resounded in all directions. The blue phoenix flapped its wings and flew, sometimes soaring straight into the sky to caress the clouds, and sometimes flying parallel to the earth between the mountains.
Move up and down as you please, go forward and backward as you please, so free!
When the mountain spirits and wild monsters in Fengqi first heard the call of the blue phoenix, they cheered and jumped for joy. The tranquility of Fengqi was finally broken .
They knew that Mingyu, the third in command of Fengqi, had returned!
Then a little red glow appeared on the horizon, and then gradually approached, sweeping across the sky. The sharp sword light cut through the clouds, and a red dress danced in the sky. With eyebrows like green feathers and a fairy-like aura, Nuwa stepped into the sky and landed on the phoenix's roost.
"The Queen is back!"
"The Queen is back!"
"The Queen is back!"
When the little ones saw Nuwa appear, they couldn't help but shout loudly. The spirits all over the mountains jumped and ran to tell each other, some jumped in the woods, some climbed up the treetops, some stayed in front of the mountain, and some stared at the sky.
Mu and the two dragon girls, who were sitting quietly in the attic on the small island in the middle of the lake, naturally knew that the head of Fengqi had returned.
"Wow, sister! The Queen is back, and Father is back too!" The joy in Longnu Xi's eyes was almost overflowing. She jumped three feet high, and hurriedly pulled Longnu Chen'er straight out.
Chen'er was immersed in joy and before he could react, he was dragged out of the attic by Longnv Xi.
"Hey? Xi, don't go outside the mountain, go to the phoenix tree on the main peak!" Chen'er called out with a helpless look.
Looking at the two sisters who disappeared in a flash, Mu couldn't help but chuckle, "These two little guys~~"
However, considering that Long Nu had not seen Nu Wa and Ming Yu for hundreds of thousands of years, she was relieved. Mu looked at the two figures that had landed under the sycamore tree on the main peak, collected all the unfinished jade slips on the table, and then stood up and headed for the main peak.
"My Queen, My Queen, you are back!" When Dragon Girl Xi saw the woman in red under the paulownia tree, she was so excited that she threw herself into Nuwa's arms.
Nuwa seemed to be infected by Xi's enthusiasm. She picked up the little guy with a smile, gently pinched Xi's cheek, and asked in a very doting tone: "Xiao Xi'er, did you miss me?"
"Yes! After the Queen passed away, I have been thinking about her day and night, when I am practicing, when I am sleeping..." Dragon Girl Xi answered without thinking, her little mouth was so sweet.
"Have you practiced the Taoism I left for you last time?"
"Of course, of course. Xi has already practiced the Creation Art to the third level."
Nuwa raised her eyebrows when she heard this, "Xiao Xi'er, are you being lazy? Xiao Chen'er has already reached the fourth level!"
Dragon Girl Xi's eyes were firm, and she said confidently: "I'm not lazy. I spent all my time thinking about the queen, so my cultivation is a little slower than my sister."
"Really?"
"Dang... Ouch, it hurts, my queen, I was wrong, don't spank Xi's butt..."
Compared to the lively and cheerful Xi, the dragon girl Chen'er was much more reserved. She stretched out her little hands to wrap around Mingyu's neck, rubbed his cheek affectionately, and whispered: "Father, Chen'er misses you."
Mingyu was almost melted by the childish voice of his dragon girl. A smile gradually spread across his face. He picked up Chen'er, his eyes were gentle, and he replied softly: "Father misses you too!"
When a bird gets tired of flying it knows to return.
Outside Fengqi Mountain, the sky is high and the land is vast. It is a magnificent stage where all kinds of creatures emerge and fight endlessly. There are fights, calculations, endless opportunities and countless crises.
Fengqi Mountain is a place where spring and scenery are bright and beautiful. It is the place that makes Mingyu feel most at ease. To Mingyu, it is like a safe harbor where he can come back and rest peacefully when he is tired. It was like this a long time ago, it is like this now, and it will be like this in the future.
The reason I came back this time was actually to let my spiritual heart, which had been wandering for a long time, settle down for a while.
"What? Tired?"
The gentle voice entered her ears, making her feel calm. She first bowed to Nuwa, then walked to Mingyu and reached out to take Chen'er, but the girl clung to her father tightly, as if she was afraid that Mingyu would run away.
Mingyu smiled and said, "Now that things outside have come to an end, it's a good time to return to Fengqi Mountain to recuperate for a while. You've worked hard during this period. To be honest, I'm really an incompetent father. I didn't even know the two little guys had transformed ."
"That's good to know." Mu rolled his beautiful eyes and continued, "Since you're back, you shouldn't be in a hurry to leave, right? You and the queen have to take good care of the two little ones' future training. After all, they are the third generation of Fengqi Mountain! My way is indeed suitable for them, but in the end, they have to choose which way to go.
Also, you know I'm not good at fighting, so you have to strengthen the two little guys in this regard. You can't just have Golden Immortal cultivation but mediocre combat power. At least they have to be invincible at the same level, which is the standard for Fengqi. "
Mu Xu talked a lot, and it was obvious that she had a lot of resentment towards Mingyu, the incompetent father.
Mingyu listened quietly and added some suggestions from time to time, which made Mu's depression calm down a little.
When they were almost done talking, they suddenly noticed Nuwa looking over with a smile. Her eyes moved back and forth between Mingyu and Mu, and then she said meaningfully, "Not bad!"
"Empress!" Mingyu looked embarrassed.
Mu's expression, however , was calm and her eyes were as gentle as ever. She bowed to Nuwa and said, "Thank you for your compliment, Madam."
