Return of the Phoenix Lady

When Han Xing crossed the barrier and reached the nineteenth floor, after reading a few books, he felt that he was about to advance again, so he immediately sat down and closed his eyes to practice.

When she opened her eyes again, she was still the only one on the nineteenth floor. She didn't know whether Jin Yifeng hadn't come up yet or had already, nor did she know how long it would take for him to leave. Her strength was rising like a rocket, now a ninth-level magician and a ninth-level martial artist, and she was just one level away from reaching the next level.

Just as I was about to hurry upstairs, I caught a glimpse of a dusty book in the innermost corner.

She walked into the corner without hesitation, picked up the book with her slender fingers, gently shook off the dust, and took a look - "Tianxing Continent".

Tianxing Continent? Is this a history book? But how could a history book appear in the library? And it's placed on the nineteenth floor. Is there some secret in this book?

Han Xing opened the book, and the more he read, the more he found it strange. The book truly contained only the history of the Tianxing Continent, albeit one from ancient times. He flipped through page after page until he suddenly paused. "Holy Star Academy?" Was that the ancient name for the Five Nations Academy? He continued reading, only to discover that the academy had been founded by a man named Xing. No one knew Xing's identity, and the book contained only a few words about him: "Mysterious existence, godlike powers, mysterious disappearance." Who was he? He was so amazing!

After quickly digesting the contents, Han Xing closed the book and put it on the bookshelf. At this moment, he suddenly felt the aura of Xiao Huo fluctuate.

Han Xing knew that Xiaohuo was finally coming back, and she couldn't help but feel excited.

But after a moment, the silver chain on Han Xing's wrist rippled, and a fiery red light lingered around it, which was very beautiful! Finally, a beam of red light shot out from the silver chain directly across from Han Xing, forming a ball of light and shadow slightly higher than Han Xing, and the fiery red was dazzling. Han Xing had to close his eyes to avoid the glare.

Suddenly, accompanied by an excited and crisp male voice, Han Xing felt herself being hugged by Xiao Huo, and a warm and familiar breath surrounded her, "Xiao Xing, I miss you so much!"

Only when he felt that the bright light was no longer so strong did Han Xing open his bright eyes. What he saw was an extraordinarily handsome young man with a fiery red body and full of kingly aura.

Han Xing nodded in satisfaction, smiled at Xiao Huo, and said, "Welcome back!" He then hugged Xiao Huo back. He was also thankful that Xiao Huo had appeared in this encircled library. If he had been on the mainland, the cultivators would surely have sensed the presence of this divine beast, and he would have been in trouble.

Xiaohuo excitedly whispered in Hanxing's ear: "Xiaoxing! You have to be responsible for me!"

Han Xing was a little confused for a moment. Xiao Huo looked at Han Xing's stunned expression and said angrily, "Xiao Xing, you haven't forgotten, have you? It was that time when we were in the Holy Land of Purgatory, you...you kissed me, and you said that as long as I transformed into a human form before you came of age, you would be responsible for me!"

Han Xing couldn't help but gasp. Oh my god! He had never taken this matter seriously, so he had forgotten it long ago. He didn't expect Xiao Huo to remember it so clearly and bring it up as soon as he got back. What should he do? Oh, right? Han Xing said with a look of regret: "Xiao Huo, have you forgotten? I said that I would be responsible for you if you transformed into a human form before I became an adult, but I also said that it must be based on the premise that I like you, and now, I don't like you yet!"

"You don't like me?" Xiaohuo pouted her pink lips, frowned, and her eyes turned red when she heard that, as if she had suffered a great injustice.

"Of course I like you! But not that kind of like!"

"What kind of like is that? You still like me, right?" Xiaohuo blinked hopefully at Han Xing and said.

Han Xing rubbed his forehead with a headache, then said: "Uh... that kind of liking is... love! Do you understand? Love!" Han Xing guided Xiao Huodao like a teacher.

"Love? Isn't love just liking?" Xiaohuo said with a pout.

"No!... Anyway, I don't love you now, so only if you can make me fall in love with you, I will be responsible for you!" Han Xing said righteously.

Xiaohuo lowered his head and thought for a while before saying, "Okay! I will make you fall in love with me!" After saying that, he also gave a beautiful boy a bright smile for free.

Han Xing's heartbeat actually quickened at that charming smile.

"By the way, Xiaoxing, where is this?" Xiaohuo asked, looking at the decorations here curiously.

Han Xing then realized that time was running out and he had no time to reminisce with Xiao Huo, so he had to make it short and briefly explain the current situation.

"So that's how it is! Then let's go up together!" Xiaohuo suggested.

"No need, you should go and keep them company! They've been bored these days." The so-called "them" refers to the magical beasts of Hanxing.

"Well... okay then!" Xiao Huo glanced at Han Xing reluctantly, and said, "Then you have to let me out quickly! You promised me that you would let me stay with you forever!"

"Yes! I know, don't worry, it won't take too long this time, you can all come out soon." Han Xing promised.

Only after watching Xiaohuo go back obediently did Han Xing step onto the last top floor.

What surprised Han Xing was that there was not a single book on this floor, only a bed, a table and a stool. Has anyone ever lived here?

Han Xing felt as if there was a force pulling her to the stool next to the table and sit down.

When consciousness returned, Han Xing was surprised to find that he was already sitting on a stool. Why was it so strange here?

At this moment, the table suddenly emitted a silver light. Han Xing waited quietly, wanting to see what strange things would happen.

The silver light on the table gradually turned into a human-shaped silver light ball. Han Xing wondered in his heart, could it be him?

It’s not him! Han Xing’s intuition told him that this must not be him, but why didn’t this guy speak?

After a while, Han Xing couldn't help but said: "You..."

"Are you the one who woke me up?" the man finally spoke.

"Well, who are you?"

"Star." The man said bluntly.

"Xing? Are you the founder of Holy Star Academy?" Han Xing asked in surprise.

"Ah."

"Why are you here? The book says you disappeared. Where did you go?"

"You don't need to know."

"Okay then! Then tell me what I can know!" Han Xing said helplessly.

"As long as you promise to help me do one thing, I will give you the art of nature, how about it?" the man said lightly.

"What's the matter? What natural magic? Tell me first!" Han Xing raised his eyebrows and looked at the man.

"There are three kinds of natural arts. I know that you already have thunder. As long as you promise to help me find a woman named Xing, you can have the other two - wind and rain." The man explained lightly.

"Okay! I agree!" Han Xing agreed without hesitation. Just kidding, anyone who doesn't agree would be a fool! He would talk about whether he could find the person first, and then he would talk about it after he had these two natural techniques. Anyway, this man couldn't be monitoring him all the time, and the woman might have died a long time ago! But don't forget, he is a person from ancient times! If he is dead, how could the woman still be alive?

"She is indeed dead, but her reincarnation has appeared." The man reminded her calmly, which surprised Han Xing. It turned out that this man could read her mind and hear what she was thinking.

"No matter how many times she reincarnates, she will always have a five-pointed star birthmark on her body. When you find her, please tell me: I have no regrets!"

Star-shaped? I even have a heart-shaped one on my chest!

Han Xing nodded and said, "Okay! I'll try my best!"

The man seemed to sigh softly and murmured, "Please..." A silver light shot into Han Xing's body, bringing with it a breeze and drizzle.

With a flash of silver light, the man on the table disappeared instantly, and everything returned to calm.
