681 Meeting Zhu Asi
This phoenix clearly wanted to avenge the first phoenix.
Jiang Ming felt helpless. He said to the phoenix, “It was your friend who wanted to attack us. Why can’t we fight back?”
Upon hearing Jiang Ming’s words, the phoenix was unwilling to let the matter go and roared at Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming saw that the phoenix’s posture was not right. He took out a silver needle and pushed it into the phoenix’s head.
The phoenix could no longer make any sound and could only stammer.
This made Master Longugh. He could not help but find it odd. “This is the first time I’ve seen a phoenix like this. How did it be like this?”
Jiang Ming exined, “I constricted its throat. So, it can only stammer. If it had gone overboard with us just now, I would have taken its life.”
Jiang Ming frowned. He did not like unreasonable people.
Master Long could not help but tremble when he heard that.
If he had not respected Ning Caichen before, wouldn’t he be dead already?
At this moment, Zhu Asi’s voice rang out, “Ning Caichen, what are you doing here?”
Jiang Ming and Master Long looked at each other and saw confusion in each other’s eyes.
Why was Zhu Asi here? Wasn’t he in the Long family’s mansion?
Had the others encountered some difficulties?
Zhu Asi walked over and asked them again, “Why aren’t you answering me? Why are you here?”
“We came out through the White Demon Tower, so where did youe from? This shouldn’t be a ce that outsiders can enter, right?” Master Long answered.
Zhu Asi’s eyes widened. “This isn’t a ce outsiders can enter? Are you kidding me? The door has been opened, and anyone outside cane in. I came out to take a breath of fresh air. I didn’t expect to see the two of you in the blink of an eye. Why didn’t you tell me that you were here? Fortunately, I bumped into you. Otherwise, when I saw that you weren’t inside the mansion, we would have had a hard time looking for you.”
Zhu Asi’s words were slightly usatory.
Jiang Ming felt odd. “Then do you know about the Hundred Demon Tower?”
Zhu Asi was confused. “What’s the Hundred Demon Tower? I don’t know anything about it.”
Seeing that Zhu Asi did not know about the Hundred Demon Tower, Master Long was relieved. Then, he nced at Jiang Ming and lied, “We were just walking around here. We didn’t expect to bump into you.”
“That’s right.” Zhu Asi thought for a moment and looked at Master Long. “By the way, the pastries made in your kitchen are really delicious. Do you mind if I take your chef away? The Zhuyan Pce is in need of such a chef.”
Jiang Ming did not know whether tough or cry when he saw Zhu Asi talking nonsense. “How can we take their chef away? We still have a lot of ces to go, so we can’t bring the chef along. If you really want to bring the chef along, why don’t you ask Master Long to send her to the Zhuyan Pce?”
“That’s right.” Zhu Asi’s eyes suddenly lit up. “Why didn’t I think of that? If Master Long is willing, then I will have to trouble Master Long.”
“It’s just a chef. Of course, it’s okay.”
Master Long agreed without hesitation.
At this time, the phoenix broke free from its shackles and rushed toward Jiang Ming’s back, but Zhu Asi saw it.
Zhu Asi rushed forward and grabbed the phoenix’s throat.
The vicious aura that the phoenix was about to unleash was restrained.
“You little brat, you still want to attack Ning Caichen? Do you really think you’re so great because you’re a phoenix?”
Zhu Asi teased the phoenix.
The phoenix did not want to be outdone. It wanted to peck Zhu Asi, but it could notpare to Zhu Asi’s strength at all. It could only whine.
Zhu Asi burst outughing. “What else can you do to me besides whining?”
At this moment, the other phoenix was unwilling to let itspanion suffer such humiliation. It rushed over and wanted to save the phoenix with its life.
However, Zhu Asi sensed it and turned around to dodge the phoenix’s attack.
At this moment, Jiang Ming also made his move. Just like Zhu Asi, he grabbed the other phoenix.
Now that the two phoenixes had been captured, there was no one else who could save them.
“Now that we have seeded, these two phoenixes can no longer hurt us.”
Zhu Asi put his hands on his waist and looked at the phoenix in front of him.
The two phoenixes realized that they could not do anything and wailed.
However, because Jiang Ming and Zhu Asi were holding their throats tightly, they could not say anything at all. They could only continue to whine.
Suddenly, they decided to end their lives, but Zhu Asi and Jiang Ming saw through it.
Zhu Asi was rendered speechless. “I can’t believe they want to end their lives.”
As he spoke, he quickly tightened his grip on one of the phoenix’s throats, preventing it from biting its tongue to end its life.
Jiang Ming did the same thing. “My phoenix also wants to end its life.”
“They seem to love each other a lot. Otherwise, why would they want to die together?”
Zhu Asi smiled faintly.
Master Long burst intoughter. “Isn’t that so? Perhaps the phoenixes were a couple.”
However, the two phoenixes’ attitudes became even more intense when Master Long spoke. It was as if they had already confirmed Master Long’s words.
Zhu Asi could not help but be surprised. “Could they really be a couple?”
Jiang Ming nced at the phoenix. “Yes, they’re a couple. They’re a male and a female.”
Zhu Asi suddenly felt guilty and looked at Jiang Ming. “Why don’t we set these two phoenixes free? They might already have children.”
“I didn’t expect you to have such a side to you.”
Jiang Ming was a little surprised and nced at Zhu Asi.
He had always thought that Zhu Asi was cold-blooded and heartless, but it turned out that he was not.
Zhu Asi seemed to understand Jiang Ming’s thoughts and joked, “Do you think I’m cold-blooded and heartless? If that’s the case, won’t my life be over? Can such a person really live a good life?”
“You’re right, Zhu Asi. What you said makes sense.” Master Long nodded. “I’m usually a little merciful if it’s not absolutely necessary. However, I’m normally soft-hearted. I’ll deal with the two phoenixes directly.”
