Feng Wu frowned.
Zuo Qingluan grew agitated. “Let’s be clear about one thing: I’m the only one who has the True Phoenix Blood in this world. No one else can have it!”
Feng Wu asked, “Can’t we both have it?”
“No! Never!” Zuo Qingluan said decisively. “I want to be the only one in everything! No one can take what’s mine!”
Feng Wu said, “We were only eight years old five years ago. What could I possibly take from you?”
Zuo Qingluan smirked. “You didn’t take what’s mine? Feng Wu, you’re so forgetful!”
Feng Wu asked, “Why do you say that?”
Zuo Qingluan said, “We both have the True Phoenix Blood, but why did you always make faster progress than me?”
Feng Wu thought, “That’s because I’m from another world, and I have my memories from a previous life. Of course I’m a faster learner than you.”
Zuo Qingluan said, “Why are you more knowledgeable than me?”
Feng Wu’s mouth twitched.
That was because she was taught by her beautiful master, who used to rule the continent and knew pretty much everything. Of course she knew more than Zuo Qingluan.
Zuo Qingluan said, “Why did that old hag from Firmament Palace want to take you as her disciple, not me?”
The old hag of Firmament Palace? Feng Wu was surprised.
She wasn’t the only one. Chen Ziyun was also shocked.
He had forgotten about the foul smell and only cared about what he was hearing.
He remembered what happened five years ago.
Everybody in the imperial capital did.
It was said that Feng Wu had lost her True Phoenix Blood because she became greedy and her cultivation went awry. As it turned out, that wasn’t what happened.
Her True Phoenix Blood had been destroyed by Zuo Qingluan and her family!
It was such shocking news.
Chen Ziyun felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
True Phoenix Blood.
It was the True Phoenix Blood they were talking about!
Chen Ziyun’s breath became heavier, but because of where they were and how agitated Zuo Qingluan was, she didn’t notice.
Feng Wu frowned at Zuo Qingluan. “How did you know the head of Firmament Palace wanted to take me in?”
Zuo Qingluan laughed. “How could I not know? That old hag complimented you in front of my grandfather all the time! She never mentioned me, who also has the True Phoenix Blood! If she hadn’t done that, my family would never have done that thing!”
Feng Wu smirked. “Who are you kidding? Of course your family would have done it. You’ve probably been trying to get rid of me ever since I was born!”
“No, not at first,” Zuo Qingluan said earnestly. “At first, when they found out we both had the True Phoenix Blood, they trained me with all their might. They wanted me to be prettier and more capable than you.
“But you were too talented!” Zuo Qingluan glared at Feng Wu.
She had always been a proud girl and never showed her emotions. Now that she thought nobody was around, she decided to speak her mind before she killed Feng Wu.
