Female lead: No, it's me again??

"At that time, the demons were rampant and slaughtered living beings on the Huanyu Continent. The villagers had a very difficult time surviving during that period."

"Fortunately, Senior Xuefeng stayed in Tianshan and couldn't bear to see our ancestors slaughtered by the demons. She took action to save us and protected us for many years."

"Later, the demons were sealed away, and Senior Xuefeng also went into seclusion in Tianshan to recuperate, and she has been there ever since."

Feng Siyue nodded thoughtfully, "So, the legend is true."

The old man faced the Tianshan Mountains, a hint of nostalgia in his eyes. “Whether there are mythical beasts or not, we do not know, but our ancestors’ strict orders have ensured that the customs have been passed down.”

"After that, many people went into the Tianshan Mountains, but all returned empty-handed."

Just then, a light drizzle began to fall from the sky.

The old man's smile slowly faded, and he said with worry, "Since the Qinghe Banquet began in Fengning Village, it has never rained at this time of year..."

"This rain doesn't seem like a good omen."

His questioning voice rang out again.

"Ok?"

What was that light?

Following the old man's gaze, Feng Siyue saw a black and red pillar of light shooting into the sky three hundred meters to the west!

The surging air currents whipped her long hair, and the icy wind gave her a bad feeling.

It wasn't over yet; another black and red beam of light lit up from the right!

One, two, three...

Seven beams of light!

They encircled Fengning Village, the sky was dark, and the black and red array slowly descended from the dark clouds, taking the entire Fengning Village into the array!

An evil aura spread throughout the world.

The power and oppressive feeling brought by the formation made Feng Siyue's body feel heavy. She wanted to stand up, but her body was beyond her control.

Thunder is gathering! Lightning flashes and thunder roars!

Flying sand and flying rocks!

It seemed as if even the laws of nature were condemning the appearance of this thing.

A painful scream came from beside me!

She turned her head and saw that the kind old man and the villagers of Fengning Village around her had been drained of their life essence in an instant, leaving only skeletons!

Feng Siyue's heart skipped a beat, and she forcibly covered her mouth to prevent herself from screaming. The scene before her eyes terrified her!

this.....

In the end what happened! ?

"Hahahahahaha!"

"Xue Ning, this is the price you pay for disobeying me!"

A hoarse-voiced old man in black suddenly appeared a hundred meters in the air, laughing maniacally.

His face was deeply lined, and his skin was as withered and dry as tree bark.

"Let the entire Fengning Village be buried with you, Xuening. Do you like the gift I gave you?"

Seemingly sensing his presence, a white light slowly appeared from Tianshan Mountain and rushed towards the old man at the speed of a shooting star!

"Chirp!"

A phoenix's cry echoed across the heavens!

Mythical Beasts Awaken!

"mean!"

"Liu Shou, I never thought you'd still be alive after all these years!"

A weak female voice came from the streak of light, and when the meteor was a dozen meters away from Liu Shou, it instantly transformed into a giant white phoenix!

Speaking human language!?

Feng Siyue was stunned; the legend of Fengning Village was actually true!

What are you standing there for?

"Hide!"

Xuan Li, who was standing nearby, lowered his voice and pulled her to a crouch and sneakily ran back, hiding behind a nearby haystack.

Feng Siyue was so nervous that she didn't dare to breathe, afraid of disturbing the black-robed man above who didn't look like a good person.

The old man in black glanced in their direction but didn't pay any attention.

They're just two useless people; they're not worth his attention.

"Xue Ning, I'm asking you one last time, are you willing to form a contract with me?"

"If we join forces, we'll be able to sweep across the continent in no time!"

Xue Ning looked disgusted and refused without hesitation, "Pah!"

"I'd rather die than make a contract with you!"

The man in black robes' face darkened. "That's not up to you!"

"Whether you like it or not, today you will become the sharpest blade I use to pierce the sect for generations to come!"

He took out a black array plate, and blood-red color surged in the groove at the center of the array plate.

The old man suddenly threw the blood into the sky, where it landed at the eye of the array. The black and red array accelerated its rotation, and five intangible black tentacles solidified and grabbed at Xue Ning!

Seeing this, Xuefeng flew left and right to dodge, occasionally spitting out a mouthful of ice to block the tentacles that were about to entangle it.

"Xue Ning, you appeared in your original form because your strength is no longer sufficient to transform into human form?"

The old man seemed to understand something, and burst into laughter.

"You can't escape!"

Sure enough, not long after, Xuefeng's speed began to drop drastically. She was unable to dodge in time and was caught by the pursuing tentacles, which entangled her claws and dragged her backward, trapping her on the formation.

Both wings and both feet were bound!

The tentacles pierced through her wings and limbs, splattering red blood, which was then instantly absorbed by the tentacles.

The tentacles, having absorbed the phoenix's blood, grew even larger.

"Chirp!"

The intense pain caused Xuefeng to wail in agony!

Seeing this, the old man walked to the edge of the formation with great satisfaction. "Xue Ning, we have fought for thousands of years, and now you are in this state. If you had known this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?"

A trace of sorrow appeared in Xuefeng's beautiful eyes. "Liu Shou, so what if you capture me? I've said it before, death can never be my pact with you!"

Today, it seems there's no escaping it.

A resolute glint flashed in its eyes, and its aura suddenly began to rise steadily!

Feng Siyue felt an even stronger pressure coming down, causing her to fall to the ground in a disheveled state, her face buried in the dirt!

I can't move my body at all.

Feng Siyue: "......."
