Xue Fanxin got busy cooking food. She cleaned the fat fish one after another and placed them on the grill, roasting them skillfully.
On the other hand, Hua Zhaimei stared straight at the roasted fish on the rack. The fish had just been put on fire, and he already wished he could eat it immediately. He kept asking, “When can I eat it?”
“It won’t be that soon. Just wait.” Xue Fanxin put all her attention on the food. She was roasting ten at once, and her hands never stopped moving.
“Why did you use charcoal? And that too ordinary charcoal. How long will it take? Won’t it be much faster to roast the fish in a large fire or with spirit fire?”
“The fish will be black and charred. Can you eat it? Roasting it slowly with charcoal fire will make the fish taste even more delicious.”
“Oh, I see. Then take your time. But I’ll say this first. The fish on this grill is all mine. You’re not allowed to eat it. Anyway, you’ve already eaten so much.”

Xue Fanxin was almost unable to hold the fish steadily. She said in her heart, Your image as a gentleman has collapsed, do you know that?
Hua Zhaimei did not care about others’ thoughts. He smelled the barbecue before leaving reluctantly. He walked toward Ye Jiushang and sat on a stone stool by the side. “She is the Phoenix Star?”
Ye Jiushang nodded gently. “Yes.”
“Your luck’s quite good. You actually found the Phoenix Star. Those people can wait and cry.”
“Don’t tell anyone about her for now. I don’t want them to know of her existence yet.”
“Don’t worry. They don’t even know that you’re still alive. However, after you left, Holy City was extremely uneasy. Those two so-called Dragon and Phoenix Stars didn’t bring any good luck to the Holy Region. Instead, there was constant war. The funny thing is that those ignorant people really think they’re the Dragon and Phoenix Stars.” Hua Zhaimei’s words were filled with ridicule and cold anger as if he was seriously dissatisfied.
However, Ye Jiushang had a calm expression. He poured a cup of tea for Hua Zhaimei and said indifferently, “Why are you wasting your emotions on those unimportant people? Let them be arrogant for a while longer. Soon, they’ll all cry. Do you really think it’s that easy to be the Dragon Star and Phoenix Star?”
He was Dragon Star, but this identity had been replaced by someone else. Everything that originally belonged to him was also taken away. In the end, even his life had almost been lost.
In the beginning, he did resent it, but it was gone now. He was more grateful and relieved.
If he had been the Dragon Star, he probably would not have had the chance to come here and meet Xin’er…
As for the other party, was life really good?
Hua Zhaimei knew what Ye Jiushang was thinking. He smiled in relief. “You’re right. It’s not easy to assume the position of the Dragon Star and Phoenix Star, especially the fake ones. They don’t have that Star Life, but they enjoy excessive good fortune. They’ll be finished sooner or later. Jiushang, to be honest, when I saw you this time, I couldn’t sense any resentment from you. Even if there is, you can look at it indifferently. Is the Phoenix Star really so powerful that you can even forget such great hatred?”
“It’s not that she’s powerful, but she’s worth it.”
