231: Why does my little princess have such a pure and innocent look?
“Why did you suddenly decide to go to this place?”
Ke Ming was quite surprised by Xing Mulan’s actions, mainly because the place name was too similar to what she had seen in the diary regarding Xing Mulan’s abilities.
Xing Mulan chuckled and said, “I’m going to get my superpower!”
Upon hearing this, Ke Ming was stunned.
What the heck? Going to get a superpower? How did Xing Mulan know where to get her superpower?
Thinking of this, Ke Ming even specifically took out her diary to check, wanting to see if new content had been updated in the diary.
The result showed that the content written was what she had already read; no new diary content had appeared at all.
Seeing this, Ke Ming became even more puzzled.
She asked, “How did you know you would get your superpower at Phoenix Temple on Phoenix Mountain?”
Xing Mulan replied directly, “Li Mu told me!”
“He told me to come to Phoenix Temple on Phoenix Mountain after I returned to the capital!”
“I didn’t understand why he wanted me to come to Phoenix Temple before, but then I realized it should be related to the ability I’m getting.”
Ke Ming: “…”
Upon hearing the name Li Mu, Ke Ming instantly understood.
However, she was still a bit surprised.
She knew how strong Xing Mulan’s ability, as recorded in the diary, truly was!
The power of the Phoenix Bloodline Legacy probably put her far ahead of them from the start, and her future achievement ceiling should also be the highest among them.
After realizing all this, Ke Ming was momentarily a bit expectant, wanting to see what Xing Mulan would become like after acquiring the Phoenix Bloodline’s Legacy.
Would she still be as simple-minded as she was now…
As this thought emerged, the expression on Ke Ming’s face instantly froze.
Because she suddenly remembered that it had been mentioned in the diary that even after Xing Mulan became a team leader, her personality still seemed very simple-minded.
Alright…
Then it’s fine!
Ke Ming shook her head with a smile, and finally reminded her, “Then you need to be careful.”
On the other side, Xing Mulan, who had already arrived at the foot of Phoenix Mountain, made an OK gesture with her hand and then said, “No problem!”
“Once I get my ability, I’ll treat Sister Ming to a meal, and then we can team up to go to that training Small World in the East Sea.”
Hearing Xing Mulan’s words, the smile on Ke Ming’s face on the other end of the phone grew wider.
She laughed, “Okay, then we’ll team up, and I’ll show you around this training Small World.”
“No problem!”
Xing Mulan seemed very happy: “I’ve always wanted to enter that training Small World and see what it’s like, and if it’s pretty.”
Ke Ming thought for a moment, then said, “It’s quite pretty, I guess. Hu Bingbing, that fishing enthusiast, often comes here to fish.”
After they chatted for a while longer, the call finally ended.
Xing Mulan put her phone back into her pocket and then happily walked up Phoenix Mountain.
She didn’t know why, but even though the mountain path ahead was very steep, when Xing Mulan stepped onto it, she walked with unusual ease.
It was even much easier than walking on flat ground before, and she felt warm all over, very comfortable.
With this discovery, Xing Mulan’s eyes lit up, her joy grew, and her pace quickened involuntarily.
Li Mu had been watching Xing Mulan’s situation through the System’s video feed.
After all, he had spent quite a few deception points on Xing Mulan’s Legacy.
Plus, Xing Mulan’s personality was a bit simple-minded, so he still planned to pay attention to prevent any mishaps.
When he saw in the video Xing Mulan walking faster and faster, eventually even breaking into a run.
Seeing this, Li Mu couldn’t help but shake his head with a smile, amused by Xing Mulan’s actions.
Mainly, because Phoenix Temple was dilapidated, the mountain path leading to Phoenix Temple was also overgrown with moss and weeds, basically no longer describable as a path.
But even so, Xing Mulan could still run directly, so her movements were naturally very comical.
In the video, Xing Mulan ran continuously for nearly twenty minutes before seeing a dilapidated temple in front of her.
This temple was also overgrown with weeds, some of which were even taller than Xing Mulan.
… … … …
Xing Mulan arrived in front of the temple, looking at its dilapidated main gate and the plaque above it, which read the three big characters “Phoenix Temple.”
Having reached her destination, Xing Mulan’s face was beaming with a happy smile, and she didn’t linger at all, stepping directly through the main gate.
However, just as she stepped into the temple, the next second, the surrounding environment underwent a drastic change.
It was originally a desolate temple, but the moment she stepped inside, the scenery immediately transformed into a beautiful landscape with clear mountains and water, birds singing, and flowers fragrant.
Seeing this, Xing Mulan herself was stunned.
However, while she was still in a daze, a ball of flame suddenly appeared before her.
The flame condensed into a giant Phoenix, spreading its wings as if covering the entire world.
Xing Mulan looked up, staring dumbfounded at the giant Fire Phoenix before her, so internally shocked that she completely didn’t know what expression to use to convey her emotions at that moment.
“You’ve finally come…”
The Fire Phoenix’s voice, as if from ancient times, cut through the river of time and entered Xing Mulan’s ears, pulling her back from her shock.
Xing Mulan looked at it in surprise and asked, “You knew I would come?”
“Yes, of course I knew…”
The Fire Phoenix looked at her, its tone seemingly carrying a hint of reminiscence: “I have waited here for you for three thousand years! Watching your countless Reincarnations.”
Upon hearing these words, Xing Mulan was completely stunned: “Then why didn’t you just come to find me?”
The Fire Phoenix shook its head: “I cannot leave here. Guarding this place and waiting for your arrival is my mission!”
Xing Mulan was completely dumbfounded: “Why are you waiting for me? Is there anything special about me?”
“Of course there is.”
At this point, the Fire Phoenix’s tone carried a hint of lightness, as if its mission was finally complete and it was about to be freed.
It said, “You are the little princess of my Phoenix clan, the daughter of the Prime Phoenix…”
Xing Mulan: “???”
Xing Mulan: “What you’re saying isn’t right. My dad’s name is Xing Guoyun, and my mom’s name is Li Caiwei. Neither of them is called Prime Phoenix.”
Fire Phoenix: “…”
The Fire Phoenix looked at Xing Mulan, its eyes seemingly revealing a hint of confusion, as if a little puzzled.
How did its own little princess look so innocently simple-minded now?
