Return of the Phoenix Lady

Chapter 56 On the Eve of Return

After coming out of Jubao Pavilion, the group gathered at Fengyun Tower again. No one noticed that the Han mother and daughter had disappeared for a while, except for Yingchen who had been paying attention to Han Xing.

"Waiter! Bring us some good food and wine! We must celebrate today!" Xu Bowu touched his empty stomach and shouted excitedly.

"Okay! Sir, please wait a moment!"

"Today is indeed a day to celebrate. We have finally found the black iron ore that we have been looking for for five years! Brother Han, thank you for your good wishes. Brother Jin will toast you first!" As he said that, he picked up the wine jug on the table, poured a glass of wine for Han Xing and himself respectively, then raised the glass and drank it down.

"Brother Jin, I can't accept this. I just said a few words, which didn't make any difference. The key point is that you won the bid and got this treasure. So, in terms of merit, Brother Jin, you have the greatest contribution, and I should be the one to toast you!" Han Xing was not vague and picked up the wine glass and drank it heroically.

"Haha! Brother Han is getting better and better at speaking!" Jin Haoyu felt so happy when he heard Han Xing praising him.

Unwilling to be ignored, Ouyang Qianrong looked straight at Jin Haoyu and said in a soft voice, "Brother Haoyu! Thanks to you, our union got such a treasure this time. Grandpa will be very happy when he finds out! Brother Haoyu! Rong'er toasts to you!" Unwilling to admit defeat, she also poured herself a glass, but choked because she drank too quickly. "Cough cough... cough cough cough..."

"Rong'er, are you okay? Why are you drinking so quickly? No one is trying to snatch the drink from you!" Xu Bowu said softly as he stroked Ouyang Qianrong's back.

"Haha! Brother Wu is so good to Sister Rong! Brother Wu seems to not care about anyone, but he shows his gentle side only in front of Sister Rong. Sister Rong, you are so enviable to have such a good man! Haha!" Shangguan Lan'er covered her mouth and chuckled.

This time, Xu Bowu did not refute Shangguan Lan'er's words, and his face turned slightly red.

"Lan'er! What are you talking about! Ahem...you..." Ouyang Qianrong's pretty face turned red, not sure if it was because of shame or anger. In Han Xing's opinion, the answer was more inclined to the latter.

"Sister Rong, don't be shy. Everyone understands you, Brother Haoyu, don't you think so?" Shangguan Lan'er smiled teasingly, and finally asked about Jin Haoyu.

"Lan'er! Brother Haoyu, don't believe her! There's nothing between me and Bowu! Really! Bowu, isn't that right? Come on! Brother Haoyu, you must believe me!" Ouyang Qianrong excitedly stepped forward and grabbed Jin Haoyu's sleeve, looking pitiful. Indeed, five years can change not only their appearance, but also their hearts.

Xu Bowu looked at all this and felt sad in his heart. He couldn't speak at all. Apart from this matter, anything else was fine, Xu Bowu thought.

Ouyang Qianrong was furious when she saw Xu Bowu didn't say anything, but she was no longer the same person. "Sister Lan'er, why do you say that? Don't you have Brother Bowen too? What are you envious of? Do you think one isn't enough and want another?" Ouyang Qianrong looked at Shangguan Lan'er with a faint smile and asked in a joking tone. Seeing Shangguan Lan'er's obviously changed expression and Xu Bowen's slightly angry look, she laughed and said, "Haha! It's just a joke! Lan'er was teasing me just now, so of course I'm going to tease you too!"

Shangguan Lan'er lowered her head to hide the fierce look that flashed across her face.

When she raised her head again, it was that gentle, virtuous and weak little girl again: "Sister Rong, you are so mean! Okay~ Lan'er knows her mistake and won't make such jokes next time. Sister, please forgive Lan'er!" She looked at Ouyang Qianrong pitifully with her watery eyes, and the watery color covered the coldness spreading in her eyes.

"Don't worry about such trivial matters." Ouyang Qianrong said lightly.

Han Xing watched this women's drama from beginning to end, and she found it extremely funny. It really was just two women on a show! This drama was really wonderful! A typical drama of jealousy over a man. Han Xing shook her head in disdain. Whether she was Jiang Linli or Liu Hanxing, she would not do anything irrational because of a man. Because her mother in her previous life had lived a hard and tiring life because of love, she had seen it all, so she would definitely not follow in her mother's footsteps.

Not wanting to waste any more time, Han Xing said, "Brother Jin, I'm a little tired. I'm going to rest first. You guys continue!" "Are you feeling unwell? Do you want to see a doctor?" Jin Haoyu asked with concern.

"No thanks! Thank you." As soon as Han Xing went back, Yingchen naturally followed, not to mention the Han mother and daughter. As for Shui Luochen, he didn't have a good impression of the Soul Refining Guild, so he followed as well.

That team was the only one left at the table, enjoying the celebratory banquet in a strange atmosphere.

"Young Master!" Han Qingyu handed the Fire Dew and 1 Lash to Han Xing.

Han Xing took the Fire Dew and said, "Take the money back to Mu Country, and then... do whatever you want! There, someone will come to help you. I believe you can achieve your wish. Let's set off together tomorrow! I will come to see you."

"Yes! Thank you, young master! We have no way to repay your kindness!" Han Qingyu and Han Xi knelt on the ground excitedly, almost kowtowing to Han Xing.

"You're welcome. I've said before, you are my partners and my comrades-in-arms. I will do my best to help you." Han Xing smiled sincerely and looked at the mother and daughter.

"We will remain loyal to you, young master, from now on!" Han Qingyu said gratefully with red eyes.

"Haha! Enjoy the pleasure of torturing your enemies!" Han Xing looked into the distance with deep eyes, a charming curve at the corners of his mouth, but his eyes were cold.

The three looked at Han Xing, who was surrounded by cold murderous aura but had a charming smile, and thought in unison: This is a disaster!

"Okay, let's all go get some rest! We'll be ready to leave tomorrow."

After the three people left, Han Xing entered the Phoenix Wonderland in the silver chain.

I wonder where Xiaohuo advanced! Han Xing relied on his memory to come to the place where he first met Xiaohuo.

This is the midpoint of the entire forest, and the small fire might be nearby.

"Sizzle~ Sizzle~" What was that sound? Han Xing followed it. The closer she got, the higher the temperature rose. Han Xing was now certain the fire was at the source of the heat, for it was the familiar Fire Phoenix Divine Fire.

In the distance, there was a huge fiery red fireball, and the sound was coming from this fireball. Han Xing walked closer and saw that Xiaohuo was in his original form - a huge fiery red phoenix with caged wings, staying in the fireball.

The delicate, shiny red feathers draped softly over Xiaohuo exuded a sense of boundless passion and vitality. Han Xing was stunned. It turned out that Xiaohuo's original form was so... gorgeous! No wonder he was always so narcissistic.

Han Xing was a little troubled. How should he let Xiaohuo drink the Fire Dew?

How can I not waste it? It's worth 4 brushes! Although I have a lot of it, 4 brushes is also money. How can I do such a luxury?

Han Xing was so absorbed in figuring out how to get Xiao Huo to drink the Fire Dew that he didn't notice the vines beneath his feet. "Snap!" Han Xing tripped, his hand trembling, and the Fire Dew flew out, hitting the large fireball where Xiao Huo was waiting. The bottle shattered with a snap, and the Fire Dew was instantly evaporated by the fireball. At least that's how Han Xing saw it. Seeing the Fire Dew heroically sacrificed before it could even be used, Han Xing felt a pang of distress. He glared at Xiao Huo angrily and left, so as not to be upset by the shattered bottle.

But at the moment Han Xing left, the fireball suddenly became larger, the temperature rose a little, and the eyes became more red and charming.
