1: Divine Phoenix Empress

This old servant is back~~~~

"Don't be afraid, little sister. Big brother will be gentle."

"No, don't come over here!"

"Jie jie jie~"

...A silver-haired girl less than 1.5 meters tall, with delicate features, she was a beauty in the making from a young age.

But at this moment, she was pinned to the ground by a youth.

Perhaps no one would have thought that this poor Little Girl would one day become the famous Divine Phoenix Empress, Huang Qingxue, who proved her Dao through slaughter.

Orphaned from a young age and wandering the world, she had just escaped from the mouth of a Beast Creature, only to encounter a weirdo with a wicked smile.

It was simply too pitiful.

And the youth with the evil smile in the Little Girl's eyes was named Chen Qingxuan.

Speaking of which, he was not from the Immortal Realm; it was just that after the college entrance examination, he was window-shopping with the school beauty he had a long-time crush on, and a Dayun truck came head-on... but that's not important.

What matters is that he transmigrated.

Unlike other transmigrators, his Transmigration was a bit awkward—it happened ahead of time.

In the future, this world is destined to be destroyed and reshaped, which means he is doomed.

As for how he knew?

Although his early Transmigration was awkward, fortunately, the System belonging to transmigrators also arrived early.

<Celestial Being> Free-Loading System!

The name didn't sound proper at all, but after understanding the System's function...

Chen Qingxuan found it delightful.

As long as he finds a <talent> that meets the System's criteria and makes them sign a <contract of indenture>, regardless of their willingness, a hundred percent of their future cultivation results would be fed back to him;

And it has no impact on the <talent>.

According to the System's prompts, because of the time he transmigrated, those future big shots are currently still powerless to resist, meaning they are at his mercy.

This was like wanting a woman and picking up a little card.

The pitiful Little Girl in front of him was the first talent locked by the System—Huang Qingxue.

"Be good~ Big brother won't hurt you." Chen Qingxuan took Huang Qingxue's small hand and happily pressed it onto the <contract of indenture>.

The next moment, an emotionless mechanical voice rang in his mind—

[Congratulations Host, you have successfully collected one talent.]

[Detected that Host's Aptitude is too poor. The signed talent Huang Qingxue possesses a Divine Phoenix Bone, her skeletal structure crushes the Host's. Triggering Celestial Being copy function.]

[Congratulations Host, you have obtained the Divine Phoenix Bone. Please check the character panel.]

A light screen appeared before Chen Qingxuan's eyes—

Host: Chen Qingxuan.

Realm: Qi Refining Late Stage

Aptitude: Divine Phoenix Bone

Cultivation Technique: Kidney Nourishing Technique

...Boom—

A wave of Qi suddenly erupted from Chen Qingxuan's Dantian, and his cultivation instantly reached the Spirit Sea Realm.

"A Breakthrough?"

Chen Qingxuan's expression was one of great joy.

He hadn't expected that after obtaining the Divine Phoenix Bone, he would even be able to break through the Bottleneck.

This feels so good.

"No... I'm still young... don't do this..."

Seeing this, Huang Qingxue was almost scared to tears.

Although she wasn't old, her experience of wandering since childhood made her more mature than her peers and more knowledgeable about the world.

She had heard of certain evil cultivators who practiced Yin-Plucking to Supplement Yang and used women as Cauldron.

Now, Chen Qingxuan was holding her small hand, and not only did he have a Breakthrough without warning... he was also smiling so lecherously.

Who wouldn't be afraid?

Even though her strength was far inferior to Chen Qingxuan's, she still struggled desperately, opening her small mouth to bite his finger.

"Ow, damn it~"

Chen Qingxuan gasped in pain.

After coming back to his senses from the surprise, he pushed Huang Qingxue's forehead, "Are you a dog... Let go... If you bite me again, I'll get Life Qi!"

Life Qi?

Huang Qingxue shuddered in fear.

Her large, watery eyes looked at Chen Qingxuan with tension and fear, her small mouth tightly pursed.

In her ears, Chen Qingxuan's so-called "Life Qi"... must be that kind of thing she was thinking of.

And the process would be very violent... Looking at the teeth marks on his hand, Chen Qingxuan sighed. The next moment, he looked up at the pitiful yet stubborn Little Girl,

"I already said I'm not a bad person. Haven't you noticed that your injuries are already healed?"

"Hmm?"

Huang Qingxue blinked her long eyelashes, realizing it belatedly.

The injuries left from her fight with the Beast Creature earlier were not only completely healed, but even the injured skin was as smooth as before.

This was a benefit of signing the <contract of indenture>.

It wasn't that the Celestial Being was kind-hearted, but rather feared that the talent's 'brick-moving' would be delayed due to injury.

Huang Qingxue bit her lip, "Then just now... what was that thing you made me press?"

"That... cough, it's not important." Chen Qingxuan touched his nose guiltily. Since signing the contract of indenture had no effect on the talent, it didn't matter whether he told her or not.

Huang Qingxue furrowed her delicate brows, suspicious but not daring to expose him.

Although her injuries were healed, she was far from letting down her guard, especially Chen Qingxuan's previous actions... which made her feel very uneasy.

Even if someone said Chen Qingxuan healed her just to toy with her... she would find it plausible.

Ding—

[Side quest triggered.]

[Please Host escort the <talent> to the Divine Phoenix Sect. It is her cultivation Holy Land, beneficial for her future growth and allowing the Host to obtain more benefits.]

[After the task is completed, the Host will also receive a reward.]

"Divine Phoenix Sect?"

Chen Qingxuan rubbed his chin.

In fact, even if he hadn't appeared, Huang Qingxue would have entered the Divine Phoenix Sect in the future. That was the key to her becoming the Empress.

Now that a quest had been triggered, he had no reason to refuse.

Firstly, there was the quest reward, and secondly, he had already made Huang Qingxue sign the contract of indenture, so the sooner she grew up, the more beneficial it would be for him.

"Let's go, I'll take you somewhere."

Chen Qingxuan made a prompt decision.

"Where to?" Huang Qingxue's voice trembled slightly. At this moment, images of being taken to some dark and damp place surfaced in her mind... "Don't ask so much."

"I... I'm not going!"

Huang Qingxue clenched her small hands and summoned the courage to refuse.

Although she knew she was no match for Chen Qingxuan, the thought of what might happen... she still didn't want to compromise.

"Oh?"

Chen Qingxuan gave an unexpected laugh.

Looking at the Little Girl's fearful yet determined expression, he felt that instead of explaining—which she wouldn't believe anyway—it would be more effective to scare her like before.

"If you keep talking nonsense, big brother will get Life Qi... I'm not some Mr. Nice Guy!"

"Hmm?"

Huang Qingxue was instantly stunned with fear.

To her ears, these words sounded like if she didn't obey... he would deal with her right here.

Consequently, this future Divine Phoenix Empress could only follow behind Chen Qingxuan with a wronged expression.

After leaving the mountain range.

Chen Qingxuan suddenly thought of something and looked back at the Little Girl, "Come, call me 'Big Brother' and I'll give you a gift."

"I... I don't want a gift." Huang Qingxue shook her head humbly.

Chen Qingxuan walked over and squatted down, examining the fearful yet stubborn Little Girl, "Is it that you don't want a gift, or you don't want to call me 'Big Brother'?"

"I..."

Huang Qingxue's lips trembled, not daring to speak.

Chen Qingxuan said directly, "If you don't call me 'Big Brother', I'll get Life Qi!"

"Hmm?"

Huang Qingxue immediately raised her wronged little face, tears shimmering in her large, watery eyes, but she didn't dare to refuse.

"Bi... Big Brother."
