Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 1726: The Spirit Of The Mirror of Eternity

”Empress Huo!” Wang Jingzhi shouted the moment Feng Yao emerged out of Zhang Fei [5] ’s body.

Feng Yao looked at Zhang Fei [5] and Wang Jingzhi, her lips curled up into a dazzling but playful smile. ”Lend me the Mirror of Eternity. Anyway, don’t call me Empress Huo anymore because she’s long dead, and the current me is the Phoenix Princess, Feng Yao.”

”Huh? The phoenix princess.” Wang Jingzhi struggled to process Feng Yao’s words. ”Does that mean you’re a female beast now?”

”I am a female phoenix, but I’m not part of the phoenix race in the Dragon-Soaring Divine Domain.”

Wang Jingzhi was speechless, thinking that Feng Yao’s confession was too bold. However, she remembered that many powerful cultivators in the Paradise Realm already knew her identity and her status as Zhang Fei [5]’s woman.

Wang Jingzhi took out the Mirror of Eternity and handed it to her. She wasn’t worried about doing so because Feng Yao would never take the mirror from her.

Feng Yao accepted the mirror and caressed it longingly. ”Long time no see! Don’t you want to come out and meet me, Zhi Jing?”

”Eh?” Wang Jingzhi and Zhang Fei [5] were shocked. ”Who is Zhi Jing, Empress—Big Sis Yao?”

”Oh? That little brat has never shown himself to you?” Wang Jingzhi was puzzled, shaking her head. ”Zhi Jing, if you don’t come out now, I will force you out.”

The Mirror of Eternity trembled strongly before releasing a dazzling light, followed by the appearance of a boy about ten years old. Although the boy looked very young, he was actually much older than all living beings in the universe, except the Primordials.

Wang Jingzhi was in a daze, not expecting that the Mirror of Eternity had a living spirit. She never knew that, even though the mirror had been in her hands for decades.

Zhi Jing put on an aggrieved look. ”Why do you always threaten me, Big Sis Shen?”

”Shen Yuanzhi is long dead, and you can call me Feng Yao from now on.” Seeing Zhi Jing’s sad look and the sorrow in his eyes, Feng Yao let out a soft sigh and patted his head. ”Little Jing, do you remember what I said to you before I entered the circle of reincarnation for the first time?”

”I... I remember everything, Big Sis Yao.” Zhi Jing looked at Wang Jingzhi. ”That’s why I chose her as the master of the Mirror of Eternity, but she was too weak to handle the mirror’s full power.”

”Huh?” Wang Jingzhi was shocked to hear that. ’So, the mirror chose me as its master because of Big Sis Yao?’

”You’re wrong about that.” Wang Jinzhi looked at Feng Yao with a questioning look. ”I never asked Little Jing to choose you as the mirror’s master, and I only told him about the character of the person who was suitable for it. Since he handed over the mirror to you, that means you are a suitable person to be its master.”

”Oh.” Wang Jingzhi nodded in understanding. ”But who is Shen Yuanzhi?”

”Shen Yuanzhi is my first identity in this universe, a primordial being, to be precise.”

Wang Jingzhi’s eyes nearly popped out of her sockets; she was utterly shocked after learning that Feng Yao had such an identity in the past. She glanced at Zhang Fei [5], who confirmed it with a slight nod.

Zhang Fie [5] looked at Zhi Jing before asking Feng Yao. ”Does that mean all the Seven Profound Treasures have spirits, Yao’er? Zhi Jing is the spirit of the Mirror of Eternity, and Ling is the spirit of the Sky-Severing Sword.”

”Huh? Have you met Ling before, Little Brat? Where—Ouch!” Zhi Jing shuddered when he saw the look in Feng Yao’s eyes. ”Why... why did you smack my head so hard, Big Sis Yao?”

Feng Yao glared at him. ”If my husband is a little brat, doesn’t that mean I’m a little brat too?”

”What?” Zhi Jing gulped hard, looking at Zhang Fei [5] and Feng Yao alternately. ”Cough! Is... is this little—this man really your husband?”

”He is Zhang Fei, and he is the only living being worthy of being my husband.”

”Haha,” Zhi Jing laughed happily as he sat on Zhang Fei [5]’s shoulder. ”Big Brother Fei, how did you manage to conquer Big Sis Yao’s heart?”

Zhang Fei [5] rubbed his nose. ”I didn’t conquer her heart, but she conquered mine.”

Zhi Jing and Wang Jingzhi were both stunned after hearing Zhang Fei [5]’s words, which indicated that Feng Yao took the initiative to be with him. They looked at her, but she simply smiled at them.

Feng Yao looked at Zhang Fei [5]. ”The Sealed World Pearl also has a spirit, but he is still deep in sleep, and you will meet him after you unseal the last area.”

”The last area?”

”Yes.” Feng Yao nodded. ”Zhen Zhu is different from the other spirits of the Seven Profound Treasures. His character is a little unique, and you will learn more about him when you meet him in the future.”

Zhang Fei [5] could only sigh after hearing that. The Sealed World Pearl still had four sealed areas, and decades had passed since he unlocked the second area, but the other four areas were still sealed to this day.

”You don’t need to think too much about those areas for now, husband. When the time comes, all those areas will open up on their own, and you’ll meet Zhen Zhu then.”

”Is Zhen Zhu as unique as you said?”

”Big Brother Fei, the Sealed World Pearl is indeed the seventh rank of the Seven Profound Treasures, but Zhen Zhu is the most powerful spirit among us.” Zhang Fei [5] looked at Zhi Jing. ”Since Big Sis Yao asked you to wait, I won’t say anything about him, and you will know everything when you meet him in the future.”

”Alright.” Zhang Fei [5] didn’t want to dwell on the matter, and he decided to wait for the last four areas of the Sealed World Pearl to open by themselves so he could meet Zhi Jing then.

Feng Yao looked at Zhi Jing. ”Since you’ve chosen Wang Jingzhi as your master, you must teach her more about the Mirror of Eternity, and you must help her unlock the last four features as soon as possible.”

”Why is that, Big Sis Yao? My master isn’t ready to open the third feature, and she will die from qi depletion if it opens.”

”This universe has changed, and the appearance of those creatures worries me.” Zhi Jing already knew about those creatures since Zhang Fei [5] told Wang Jingzhi about them, but he didn’t have clear information about them. ”I won’t say much for now, and you just need to focus on helping her unlock the last four features. Do you understand?”

”I understand, Big Sis Yao.” Zhi Jing nodded helplessly. ”So, where is Ling now? Why didn’t you bring him here, Big Brother Fei?”

”My wife, Xian Xianqin, is the owner of the Sky-Severing Sword, so she is Ling’s Master. They are in the Tower of Eternity now, but you will meet them soon.” Zhi Jing was overjoyed after Zhang Fei [5] said that. ”Hmm?”

”What happened, husband?” Feng Yao asked.

”You should check out the Seven Emotions Demon Domain, Yao’er.”

Feng Yao raised an eyebrow for a moment before examining the domain. ”Mo Shentian is almost there, husband. Fortunately, you’ve already moved all the members of the Seven Emotions Demon Race into the Soul-Devouring Demon Domain, so he won’t be able to find anyone there.”

”What is your relationship with the Seven Emotions Demon Race, Zhang Fei?”

Zhang Fei [5] looked at Wang Jingzhi, chuckling at the curious look on her face. ”Demon God Qi Qingxiu is one of my wives.”

”Hiss!” Wang Jingzhi took a deep breath, staring at Zhang Fei [5] in shock.

”Hehe,” Zhang Fei [5] chuckled. ”Besides Qi Qingxiu, Ye Mingran is also my wife, and Nalan Shizhe is my mother-in-law.”

”You leave me speechless.” Wang Jingzhi didn’t know what to say about Zhang Fei [5]’s relationship with the three female demon gods. ”Since you have important matters, you should send me and my brother back to the Moonlit Passion Sect, and we will meet Sect Master Qing afterward.”

”Alright.”

After Zhi Jing entered the Mirror of Eternity and Feng Yao entered his body, Zhang Fei [5] sent Wang Jingzhi and Wang Yusheng back to the Moonlit Passion Temple. He went to the Zenith Solar Sanctum because Qi Qingxiu was cultivating there with the others, and he took her to the Seven Emotions Demon afterward.

As soon as Zhang Fei [5] and Qi Qingxiu arrived at the Seven Emotions Demon Domain, Wu Mian immediately appeared in front of them using the body of a female demon.

”You are more suitable to be a woman, Wu Mian.”

”Tch.” Wu Mian’s lips twitched. ”If I had any other choice, I wouldn’t be using a female demon’s body. Mo Shentian will arrive soon. Are you sure you want to fight him? Even if the three of us join forces and attack him at the same time, we won’t be able to defeat him.”

Zhang Fei [5] smiled calmly. ”We might not be able to defeat Mo Shentian, but you should remember that Feng Yao and Huo Ling are by my side. However, I’m forbidding them from coming out for now, and I want to test the Celestial Demon God’s abilities so I can better prepare myself to fight him in the future.”

”Oh? Do you really want to have a serious fight with Mo Shentian?”

”I have no other choice, and I must defeat Mo Shentian with my own abilities to achieve my one goal.” Zhang Fei [5] looked outside the domain. ”Here he comes.”
