325 I’m Sorry, I Will Take Responsibility


    “I’m sorry, I’ll take responsibility.”


    When he heard this, Liu Yuan almost thought that he had died and transmigrated again. Otherwise, how could he have heard such a fantasy?


    Logically speaking, shouldn’t he be the one saying this line?


    With this doubt in mind, he tried his best to open his eyes. He propped up his upper body in a daze and saw the woman holding his arm.


    Without a doubt, this was a woman with a stunning appearance, beautiful beyondpare.


    Her long ck hair drooped down like a waterfall, outlining her soul-stirring curves along the curves of her body. Her fair skin was as wless as jade, and the soft, fiery-red feathers extended from her exquisite corbones to her armpits and her back, spreading out two gorgeous and terrifying huge red wings behind her, like a feather coat that was skillfully woven by the Heavens.


    Apart from this pair of wings that was different from a human’s, this human female body did not have a trace of excessive flesh. The lines were neat and beautiful, and the blood and vitality beneath it were exuberant, giving people a kind of wild tension.


    Her bright red eyes were like gemstones, sparkling, ethereal, and clear, reflecting Liu Yuan’s dumbfounded face.


    “Ling Guang?” he asked tentatively.


    The woman first tilted her head slightly, then frowned in confusion. “Are you talking to me? This was… my name?”


    “Wait, wait, wait!”


    Cold sweat trickled down Liu Yuan’s forehead. He spent three seconds thinking.


    It’s over, her Nirvana failed and his Little Phoenix lost her memory?


    He was so shocked that he immediately opened the card interface to check Ling Guang’s level and status.


    [Level: Demon Beast Spirit???]


    [Status: Nirvana/normal]


    Liu Yuan’s eyebrows were almost twisted together. The question marks, ‘???’, what did that mean?


    If he couldn’t check it, one possibility was that her level had exceeded the game’s upper limit, but this meant that she had reached the peak of the Mahayana stage (level 90), which was simply impossible.


    If she really broke through to the Mahayana stage, then ording to the setting, there would be a natural phenomenon. She would be pushed out by the whole world and Ascend. From ancient times until now, only Xie Qian, who was at the Mahayana stage, chose to seal himself and remain in the human world.


    The other possibility was that her level was not stable, and the System could not make an urate judgment, so it could only disy some gibberish code.


    Liu Yuanbined it with the ‘Nirvana’ in the status bar and felt that this was very likely.


    He vaguely remembered that he caught a glimpse of it before he passed out. At that time, the suffix was still ‘weakened’. Now that she was ‘normal’, then the Nirvana should not have failed. It was just that it was notpleted, or there was a small problem that caused her memory and strength to not be fully restored.


    The woman looked at his serious expression and could not help but reach out to touch the space between his eyebrows. Her movements were gentle, and her voice was also gentle. “Do you know me?”


    Was this also the butterfly effect?


    Liu Yuan had a headache, but the most important thing was to figure out what had happened. He hummed and said seriously, “You’re Ling Guang, Divine Lord Vermilion Bird of the Four Symbols. You’re also a Phoenix, the leader of all the Winged Insects in the world. The first Divine Lord Vermilion Bird was your mother. She died during the first demonic wave and you inherited her name and duties. It’s still the same even now.”


    These were all texts given in the game, so Liu Yuan could only roughly exin.


    The Wood of the North was the star of the Green Dragon. The Gold of the West was the star of the White Tiger. The Fire in the South was the star of the Vermilion Bird. The water in the North was the star of the ck Tortoise.


    The essence of the four stars would give birth to four beasts.


    The four stars referred to the four spirits of Heaven, which were the Green Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermillion Bird, and the ck Tortoise. The first generation of the four Divine Lords was the closest existence to the gods in Shangyang. However, the other three Divine Lords were still inferior to You Su, who was ranked as the Green Dragon Divine Lord. Moreover, among the first Four Divine Lords, only You Su survived.


    The divinity of the four stars flowed and fell into the mortal world, giving birth to the Four Beasts of Dragon, Tiger, Phoenix, and Tortoise. They ruled over the four blood-bearing creatures on the ground, namely the Scaled Insects, Fur Insects, Winged Insects, and Skeletal Insects.


    As a result, there were countless types of dragons in the world that had strange shapes and sizes. For example, the shadow dragon in the Spirit Transformation River, or the demon beast dragon, like Chuichui. However, there was only one true dragon, which was You Su.


    In the same way, the rtionship between the Vermilion Bird and the Phoenix was basically the same. After the Vermilion Bird died, the Phoenix took her ce and continued to lead the Winged Insects races.


    Ling Guang was a little dazed. It was unknown if she had thought of something or if she had no clue. She nodded and said, “Since that’s the case, then I’m Ling Guang. Who are you then?”


    She reached out to hug Liu Yuan and rubbed his cheeks, gently wrapping her wings around him. Her face revealed a smile of nostalgia and joy like a nestling that had broken out of its shell. “The moment I saw you, I felt a sense of familiarity and closeness. You must be someone very important to me.”


    Liu Yuan said seriously, “My name is Liu Yuan. My other name is Junxuan. I’m your… Uhh, I’m your husband.”


    Ling Guang blinked her eyes and gently pped her wings. “Husband?”


    Liu Yuan nodded his head in all seriousness and tried to hold back hisughter. “Yes, you’re my 38th concubine… Ah, that’s right, why did you say sorry to me just now, and take responsibility and so on…”


    Just as he was about to reach out and stroke the head of this cute Phoenix, he suddenly realized that his entire body was sore and weak. The arm that was supporting him on the ground trembled slightly, and he almost fell back down. Fortunately, Ling Guang’s wings caught him.


    He had just woken up and his mind was still not very clear, but now he instantly felt the strangeness that came from his bones.


    Liu Yuan felt that something was not right.


    He stared nkly for a while, then looked to the side and found his clothes. They were in pieces.


    He remembered that when he came here, his clothes were still in shape and not in such a mess.


    “What just happened?” Liu Yuan steadied his mind and asked.


    Little Phoenix’s eyes were bashful as she said, “Oh… I remember something. At that time, I should be at the final juncture of Nirvana. My body was full of Qi and blood, and I was ready to rebuild my body.”


    “And then?”


    “Then you came in. I got close to you the moment I saw you, and then I couldn’t help but… I’m sorry, I’ll take responsibility,” Ling Guang lowered her head slightly and said in a soft voice. After that, she revealed an innocent and brilliant smile. “But since you’re my husband, it should be fine, right?”


    Liu Yuan’s eyes widened and his mouth twitched. He could feel that all the meridians in his body had been repaired, and he was full of energy. He could not help but ask, “How many times have you reconstructed your body?”


    Ling Guang recalled for a moment and said, “Because there will be feedback every time. Moreover, I will be injured. Therefore, I can only wear it down time and time again. Probably… Seven or eight…”


    “Seventy or eighty?”


    “Seven or eight hundred,” Ling Guang corrected him with a gentle smile.


    Liu Yuan was deeply shocked by this number.


    Did he take a bath with Phoenix blood?
