Chapter 820: Your Happiness Mattered The Most
“My lord, you’re not going to sleep at the Emperor’s place for real right?” Little Monk frowned his eyebrows while struggling to move his little short legs.
Phoenix was watering Bodhi tree with the mythical water given by that man while answering, “Of course it’s real.”
“But you can’t leave Buddhism.” Little Monk spoke seriously, “You will suffer if you leave.”
Phoenix turned around at glanced at Little Monk, “I will be alright as long as I’m with that person.”
“Why is it so?” Little Monk could not understand.
Phoenix opened the second water bottle and spoke, “Because he has never converted so he is not under Buddhism’s control.”
“How would there be someone who has not converted into Buddhism?” Little Monk widened his eyes in disbelief. He always thought that one must convert in order to become a Buddha.
Of course Phoenix knew what was on Little Monk’s mind. She yawned languidly, “He’s different. He was formed from the essence of heaven and earth, so he doesn’t have to convert into Buddhism. It all depends on his will to become a Buddha or a God.”
Little Monk was dumbfounded upon hearing, “I see. No wonder everyone was saying that the Emperor is very powerful.”
“It actually depends. There are others who were formed by the essence of heaven and the earth too, but Buddhism could do nothing with this man particularly. Back then, Buddhism did think of converting him. Until today, they are still trying to make him surrender.” Phoenix smiled with some insensible mock when she spoke to the last.
Mock against who? The Buddha?
Little Monk thought that he had seen it wrongly. He shook his little head and finally noticed that something was wrong when he saw Phoenix watering the second mythical water, “My lord, why are you watering two bottles of mythical water today?”
“Oh, because I have to stay overnight outside. Furthermore, if the Emperor’s place is comfortable, perhaps I will stay for another two days.” As a person who had never visited other’s house, Phoenix was excited. Moreover, there were many demons in that person’s house and she could feed them like goldfish during her leisure time.
Phoenix was exhilarated but Little Monk was in great shock, “Isn’t a day enough? You’re even considering to stay for two days?!”
“You should go and pack my things now. Please bring along my pajamas too.” Phoenix stood up and spoke to Bodhi in a low voice after finishing her sentences, “Since he has invited me over as a guest, should I bring along some gifts? Forget it. He has got everything anyway.”
No one knew what did Phoenix mean by that.
Only Bodhi could understand her.
It had been hundreds of years since the day little Phoenix came to Mountain Tenya.
Finally, there was a person who was willing to be her friend.
She was not lonely finally…
From dawn till dusk.
Bodhi was still swaying slightly in front of Buddha’s gate. But this time, there was a notable gentleness from the wind.
Along with the chanting of sanskrits in the air, he blew and opened Phoenix’s scripture without the Sound of Buddha knowing.
All of the jibe and disrespect that had aroused in Phoenix’s heart.
Was whitewashed by him so well.
Only then she would have more time to do what she wanted.
Because once Phoenix was found to be revolting, Buddhism would force her to go through reincarnation.
That was all he could do to reduce her loneliness, even though he was not the one who could enlighten her…
Perhaps no one would know.
The feelings of Bodhi, who had been standing in the vast sea of clouds at the moment.
There was one thing that he never told Phoenix.
He would help her in achieving whatever she wanted to do.
Even if she got hurt one day and wanted to come back, he would still be there, waiting for her.
But Bodhi knew that the person would not retreat once she had made a decision…
At night, a sky full of stars twinkled under their feet.
In Tian Dao, it was different from the human world. The water-like galaxy with many stars could be seen when one lowered his head.
Phoenix had seen such a scenery many times before. But it was prettier today as compared to the usual days.
Staying overnight at other people’s houses.
She had always thought that she would never have the chance to do so.
But out of her expectation, this wish of hers could be fulfilled when she was still alive.
What the little Phoenix was thinking at that moment was this simple.
Moreover, she was so polite that she even brought along some gifts, although they were all fish food.
Those were for her to feed the demons when she was bored at night.
The reception immortals who saw Phoenix walking toward them behaved as if they were encountering some powerful enemies.
Those who were yawning and rubbing their eyes stopped immediately. Even those who were just passing by almost got tripped!
“Quick, go and inform all the immortals quickly. Lord, Lord Phoenix has arrived!”
“She’s bringing along something with her in her hands!”
“It must be a weapon! She is coming for a fight with His Highness!”
“But His Highness is still sleeping. What should we do? What should we do? The others are not Lord Phoenix’s rivals!”
“Stay calm! As an immortal, how could you be flustered?”
“If you are not, then you should fight with her!”
“I, I, I…”
Phoenix looked at the immortals who were deferring to each other. She wanted to ask for directions but she was helpless as no one dared to go near her within five meters.
Phoenix looked to her left and right. She had no other choice but to grab a little immortal over.
That little immortal screamed out loud, “Lord Phoenix, I have children and elders in my family. Besides, I’m so skinny that I can’t sustain your hit. You won’t feel satisfied with beating me!”
Phoenix smiled and thought that this little immortal was interesting, “Who says I’m here to beat people? Where is your Emperor?”
“Emperor is not here. He went out already. Really!” The little immortal was worried that Phoenix would not believe so he spoke on good grounds to prevent an assassination, “Many matchmakers have come for the Emperor, so he went to entertain them.”
Phoenix raised her good-looking eyebrows and her smile widened, “Do you know what is the ending of the person who had lied to me last time?”
The little immortal froze upon hearing this.
“Come on, I’m giving you another chance. Tell me, where is your Emperor?” Phoenix’s tone was very soft and gentle.
But the gentler she was, the greater the little immortal’s fear. He reached out his finger and pointed over his shoulder.
Phoenix smiled when she got her desired answer. She let go of the immortal and handed him the things in her other hand, “This is a gift for your Emperor.”
“Gift?” The little immortal did not dare to take it. He could not believe that it was a gift. This must be a trap! How is it be possible that Lord Phoenix would send gifts to their Emperor? It might be an explosive!
Phoenix retreated her hand when she saw him not moving.
She was planning to visit politely like an ordinary person. But now it seemed like the effect was not ideal…
The little immortal noticed that Phoenix really did look quite different from the usual. He hesitated for a while before asking, “Is my lord really here to send a gift to the Emperor?”
Phoenix nodded her head. Was it that weird for her to send a gift?
The little immortal still could not believe her.
It was then when an old immortal walked out from the inside. He rushed forward immediately when he saw Phoenix standing outside, “My lord, why are you here so early? The Emperor said that you will be coming over tonight, I thought that will be after your chanting. I was just about to send someone to Buddhism to bring you here.”
