Chapter 841: Phoenix Placed Under House Arrest

He was never this st*pid.

He actually waited for her to get jealous.

How could he forget that perhaps she did not care about him at all?

Some people were just so unconcerned to the point that they disappointed others.

The Emperor lowered his gaze, the blissful image in the magical mirror felt like a thorn piercing his heart.

Splash!

The magical mirror was thrown into the Heavenly Lake nearby!

The immortal leaped in shock. He did not dare to say a word, hence he could only obediently trail behind the man.

It was the day where a heavy downpour fell upon the Ninth Heaven.

Two individuals who were equally proud of themselves – one left for the temple and another one returned to Buddhism.

No one expected that the magical mirror would be picked up by somebody else.

This person was none other than one of the seven thoughts of Golden Lotus…the witch.

Watching the magical mirror, she gradually pulled a long face.

That evening, Venerable summoned Phoenix and shut her in the Leiyin Temple with the reason that she had broken a religious precept.

Golden Lotus was present at the side, trying to advise in a soft voice, “My Lord since you have already broken up with the Emperor, why not you agree to the request of Honored Sir, and marry the Dragon King of the Eastern Sea? If so, you need not be under house arrest and listen to rumors outside. My Lord, by now you should have known how the Six Paths views you. I have already liaised with the representative from the Eastern Sea, and the Dragon King does not mind the fact that you have been with the Emperor before.”

“You seem to care very much about my affairs.” Phoenix smiled lazily as one of her hands supported her chin, her words and actions giving off an air of devil-may-care attitude.

Golden Lotus did not like her style, as if she was someone unworthy to be mentioned when she stood in front of her!

“I am only concerned about you, my Lord. I worry that you would not be able to move on,” said Golden Lotus as she toyed with the magical mirror in her hands, “I am also deeply sorry regarding the breakup of you and the Emperor.”

Phoenix swept a glance at the magical mirror in her hands, and with a playful smile she said, “How does our breakup concern you?”

“Nothing, just that… just that I hope my Lord does not place the blame on me,” Golden Lotus said as she looked at Phoenix in the eye, “There is a possibility that the Emperor and I may end up together in the future.”

“Does this mean that you haven’t slept with him?” Phoenix threw aside the Buddhist scriptures in her hand, and looked at Golden Lotus with a smile in her eyes, “Would you like me to share my experience with you? But…” She stopped in the middle of the sentence. Tipping up Golden Lotus’s chin, she curved her lips, “You probably won’t be able to sleep with him. You’re not skilled enough yet.”

Golden Lotus clenched her fingers into a fist. How dare… how dare she look down on me!

“Since you like that mirror so much, you might as well keep it to entertain yourself. You do like to play with stuff that I don’t want,” Phoenix condescended to her, “Also, don’t appear again within my sight; I cannot guarantee I won’t commit acts of murder when I’m in a bad mood. After all, you are the Golden Lotus in front of Buddha’s gate. For the sake of Sakyamuni, I won’t touch you because you’re not worth my action.”

Upon hearing that, Golden Lotus’ body trembled with anger.

She thought that she did not know anything.

However, she found out that the innocent-looking Phoenix knew about it all along.

She had actually seen through all her thoughts and tricks.

She appeared like a clown in front of her.

Golden Lotus could not conceal her rage in her heart, hence she slammed the door, giving rise to a gust of wind when she left.

It was better not to assume that she really did not know anything.

Once the ancient Phoenix flinched, nothing could be restored.

So what if the Sea of Blood was emptied and she had earned multiple merits for Buddhism?

Once she did anything that threatened Buddhism, eventually, she would not be able to turn back.

She would wait for that day!

Golden Lotus laughed as she held the magical mirror in her hands.

She did not believe that Phoenix truly did not care about it.

No one would not care for a treasure like this…

Inside the wooden house, the smell of sandalwood wafted through the air.

Little Monk tailed behind Phoenix. He could not help but ask, “My Lord, why did you and the Emperor break up? I believe that you do not like to be alone. For me, I think one day I will become Buddha. When that day comes, there will be no one beside you. Look at those little monks, none of them can serve you well. Also, those people from Six Paths always target you. At least, with the Emperor by your side, he could deal with these annoyances, and you can avoid the house arrest.”

Listening to the words of the Little Monk, Phoenix’s eyes dimmed.

Although she did not want to admit it, she could not help but think – only if he could understand her loneliness like how the Little Monk understood her.

If he was the one who understood her, everything would be perfect.

However, when she thought of his devilish, arrogant face, unbothered by anything, she suddenly felt that her stubbornness was ridiculous and pathetic at the same time.

Everything she had, he would lightly give it away to someone else.

After everything that had happened between them, how much did he really care about it?

In fact, she wondered if it ever crossed his mind that she would be upset when he placed a bet with the Crown Prince.

Was it because she liked him, so he could hurt her without caring for her feelings? Did he think that he could hurt her whenever he liked, and she would still not give up on him?

Well, she also had her own dignity and pride.

So, let’s just put an end to everything.

For the next one hundred years, she would not leave Buddhism.

Phoenix lowered her eyes and turned over her shoulders, her lonely silhouette exuded a hint of determination…

The daylight fades in the sky – the magnificent, grande temple.

The Crown Prince could not help but worry about a certain person, hence he brought a jar of wine and came to meet the Emperor. “Be honest, are you and Phoenix done for good? You shouldn’t have gotten sick of her yet. Weren’t you telling me that it was fun to be together with Phoenix? Who dumped whom?”

The Emperor looked at him and let out a laugh all of a sudden, “Crown Prince.”

“What!” One should not blame the Crown Prince for not being polite in tone. This was because every time when the man addressed him with his title, something bad would happen and normally, this person would chase the Crown Prince away.

The Emperor propped his chin, giving him a side view of his handsome face. “Do you really want to know who dumped whom?”

“Yes!” The Crown Prince nodded his head quickly like a chick pecking rice grains. The anticipation in his eyes betrayed him.

The Emperor placed the wine cup on the armrest. “Why should I tell you?”

“Then why did you ask whether I would like to know?!” Did he not mean that he was going to tell me?

The Emperor lazily swept his glance over him, inattentively he said, “Of course, I’m doing so to whet your appetite. I can’t be the only one suffering here.”

“You! You!” Although he was the Crown Prince of Tian Dao, he was rather useless. “Wait a moment, where are you going next?”

“Heavenly feast.” The Emperor did not turn around as he uttered these two words.

“Huh? Didn’t you just come back from that place? Why are you going back there again? No one is there anymore, what for are you going there? Besides, it’s getting late, why not go there tomorrow? What about the wine? Wait a minute!”

When the Crown Prince saw the man had no intention of slowing down, he could only grit his teeth and trail after him. He was afraid that this man would do something, as he could feel the devilish aura seeping out from the man. It was too strong to the extent that he could smell the scent of blood.

However, he did not expect the man to not enter the Heavenly feast when they had arrived. Instead, he stood by Heavenly Lake, seemingly searching for something…
