The Princess Agents Want a Divorce

After tossing the charred bear meat onto the grass a short distance away, Gu Lingxi walked to the bear's belly and deftly cut off another piece of meat! She then walked to the fire!

As she grilled the bear meat, Gu Lingxi felt something was off, as if something was missing. She squinted and scanned the area. Where was the piece of burnt bear meat she had thrown away earlier?

Gu Lingxi pretended to continue grilling the meat, but glanced to her right and noticed something moving erratically under a pile of leaves! It was about the size of two palms and didn't seem dangerous at all!

Gu Lingxi smiled and tore off another piece of roasted bear meat, sniffed it, and muttered loudly to herself,

Oops, this piece is a bit burnt again! Throw it away!

As soon as the meat hit the ground, a slender chicken claw emerged from the pile of leaves and quickly grabbed the meat back into the leaves!

Haha, interesting! A greedy bird?

Gu Lingxi put down the grilled meat, walked over and peeled away the leaves!

A black, featherless bird came into view!

Sensing Gu Lingxi's approach, Bingyu, who was still chewing a piece of meat, didn't even have time to spit it out. She closed her eyes and continued to play dead!

Pfft! This scene successfully amused Gu Lingxi. It was the first time she had ever seen such a cunning monster, a creature that was neither chicken nor bird!

Seeing that it didn't move, Gu Lingxi grabbed it by its two chicken feet! Wow! A pheasant. I'm tired of bear meat, let's change things up and have a roast chicken!

Bingyu cursed a thousand times in his heart. "You damned woman! I kindly invited you to eat my bear meat, and you're ungrateful! You even want to eat me!"

Feeling the burning sensation beneath her, Bingyu stopped pretending to be dead! She opened her eyes and flapped her wings!

Ouch! You're scalding hot, you ungrateful woman! Let me go right now! Or I'll make you end up like this dead bear!

You can talk? What breed of chicken are you? Are you a parrot or a myna?

Damn woman, I'm not some stupid thing like a myna bird. I'm... well, I'm a... well, I can't reveal what I am, or I'll be in even worse shape!

Anyway, I'm pretty awesome! Hmph!

Did you really kill this giant bear? Gu Lingxi asked curiously.

What else? This is the food I hunted!

Taking things without asking is stealing, and not only did you steal my food, but you also tried to roast me! You're a bad woman!

Oh! Or is it just a myna bird that only knows culture?

How did you kill such a big bear? It was at least at the fourth or fifth level of strength, equivalent to a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator! Are you that powerful?

Seeing Gu Lingxi's disbelieving look, Bingyu's expression was arrogant. "Hmph! My abilities are naturally unmatched! How could this fifth-tier giant bear be a match for me?"

Keep bragging! Look at you, you're all burned like a charcoal, you look ugly and weak!

You wicked woman, how dare you call me ugly! I'll teach you a lesson!

Bingyu struggled and spat out several icy blue ice pillars from her mouth at Gu Lingxi!

Gu Lingxi's defensive robe activated its protection on its own, blocking all the ice pillars, which then fell to the ground with a crackling sound!

Feeling that force, I must say, it's quite powerful! This defensive robe can at least withstand attacks from a Golden Core cultivator!

Don't move! If you move again, I'll really roast you and eat you!

No, don't roast me! I won't spit on you anymore, okay?

Waaaaaah... Please release me! I'm dizzy, and all the meat I just ate has been digested. I'm starving!

Shut up! It's so noisy! If you stop talking, I'll let you go!

Ice Feather humanely covered its mouth with its few remaining feathers using its wings!

Gu Lingxi... threw it to the ground! Ignore it, go eat your barbecue! She was starving and didn't want to listen to a bird chirping away!

As the fragrant roasted meat entered her mouth, Gu Lingxi couldn't help but devour it!

Bingyu's mouth was watering! "Woman, give me another piece of roasted meat! I'll forgive your rudeness and theft!"

Gu Lingxi sneered, "Heh! I'm being rude, I'm stealing your flesh, so what? Let's see what you can do to me."

Ice Feather was furious! It was so hungry! Ever since it ate roasted bear meat, it never wanted to eat raw meat again! Roasted meat smelled so good! Having eaten raw meat for a thousand years, this was the first time it had ever tasted roasted meat. It was so tempting!

How can you grill meat for me, woman?

Gu Lingxi pondered for a moment! This bird could easily kill a fifth-tier demon beast, so its strength must be at least fifth-tier or higher! In any case, it must be stronger than her sixth-level Qi Refining stage strength!

Now she's in an unfamiliar environment, with nothing to defend herself except this defensive robe and not even a decent weapon! She can't enter the spatial dimension for the time being! She might as well let this silly bird act as her henchman for now! At least if she encounters a fourth, fifth, or sixth-tier demon beast, she won't have to flee for her life in such a sorry state!

She's at the sixth level of Qi Refining, which is enough to deal with first, second, and third-tier demonic beasts, but she'd need the strength of the Foundation Establishment stage to go any higher!

Although you're not exactly good-looking, you're quite capable. So, if you sign a master-servant contract with me, I'll roast meat for you. Besides today, you'll eat and drink well every day with me, and there are many other delicacies even better than this roast meat!

Ice Feather hesitated. Its parents had said that they were noble phoenixes and could never become contracted beasts of humans, serving as slaves and servants for generations to be driven and manipulated by humans!

Can we change our request? My parents won't let me be a slave!

A servant beast? Then let's sign an equal contract and become friends! How about becoming partners?

Bingyu thought for a moment and said, "Hmm! This is good, I'll take this one. But you can't mistreat Bingyu in the future, you have to feed Bingyu delicious food every day!"

"Mmm! Mmm! I'll give you delicious food every day from now on!" Gu Lingxi smiled kindly, like a big bad wolf who had successfully lured a child!

Jun Moli had taught her how to contract with demonic beasts before, and today she could put that to good use!

A drop of blood fell onto Bingyu's forehead. He chanted an incantation, and a circular contract array appeared between the two of them! A phantom of a phoenix cried out as it circled above the array!

Gu Lingxi stared in astonishment at the large, ice-blue bird. "So beautiful!" she thought. "Could this be your true form?" Smacking her lips, Gu Lingxi felt she'd struck gold! This was actually a fledgling ice phoenix! Aren't these kinds of demonic beasts usually found in the demon realm? How did it appear here? Was this the demon beast realm?

Having signed an equal contract, the two were bound together by a subtle, almost imperceptible law of nature!

Are you a phoenix?

Ice Feather proudly raised its head. Of course! This great bird is a very powerful one, not some nosy myna!

Can I have barbecue now?

Gu Lingxi was overjoyed and naturally didn't hesitate to hand it a large piece of roasted meat!

Your name is Bingyu? Hmm, that's a pretty nice name!

Of course! That's the name my father gave me!
