episode 90's
“It's a miracle! My power is starting to return! Ha ha ha!" Madam Feng danced around like an excited little girl after seeing her golden eyes in the mirror.
Meanwhile, Yuan and the other two girls were looking at him with confused expressions on their faces.
What makes him so excited? What did he mean by ‘his strength returned’ when he was already at the Spirit Grandmaster realm?
“Umm are you okay?” Yuan suddenly asked him.
“Hm?” Madam Feng immediately turned to look at Yuan, but her gaze towards him had changed significantly compared to before, almost like she was seeing him in a new light!
He turned around and walked towards her very quickly before stopping a meter away and lowering his body until both of his knees were on the floor, and he proceeded to press his forehead against the floor made of marble, prostrating on Yuan.
“Dear guests No, Young Master Thank you so much for restoring my strength despite just a little!” Madam Feng said to him.
“I I really don't understand,” Yuan said as he scratched his head.
Madam Feng then said, “To be honest, I am not a human being. In fact, I am a Divine Beast” Vermilion Phoenix.”
"You phoenix ?!" Yuan exclaimed in a surprised voice.
“No way” Even Yu Rou and Xiao Hua were startled by Madam Feng's statement.
“Yes, however, due to some circumstances, my bloodline is cursed, and my power has been sealed and I am forced to live my life as a human being. I have lived that kind of life for over 10,000 years now. ” Lady Feng keeps revealing more secrets about her that she has kept secret for over 10,000 years.
“10,000 years!” Yuan could not imagine living for so long and was very surprised to hear that Madam Feng had this much experience.
“So your strength has returned, huh? That's good to hear, ” Yuan said with a smile.
“Yes But it's just a little, and I can still feel the curse that restricts my body.” Madam Feng sighed.
And then he lifted his head to look at Yuan with a hopeful look and continued, "However, Young Master … I believe your blood can help me dispel this curse and allow me to be free once again."
"My blood?" Yuan raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Yes. For some reason, I was attracted to your blood, and after drinking it, my curse weakened, so I can only assume that your blood has the ability to dispel my curse.” Lady Feng said.
“Because of that, I beg Young Master's help! Please help get rid of this curse that has trapped me in this Under Heaven for 10,000 years! I would do anything in return! ”
After a moment of silence, Yuan spoke in a calm voice, “If my blood can really help you dispel your curse, I will gladly help by giving you as much blood as you need. However, it takes time for my blood to recover, and I have no time to wait, not to mention who knows how much blood you will need to eliminate the curse completely.”
"That's fine. Brother Yuan will soon be riding the Stairway to Heaven until he reaches his peak. He did not have time to linger in this small place,” Xiao Hua also chimed in.
"Stairway to Heaven?" Madam Feng looked at her in surprise, and she fell silent.
"Are you okay?" Yuan asked him after he was silent for a minute.
After blinking her eyes in bewilderment a few times, Madam Feng suddenly said to Yuan, "Young Master, then I will follow you until I am free from my curse! Of course, I will not selfishly ask for your help for free! Everything in this store”including myself”will I give to Young Master! As long as you let me follow you and consume your blood once in a while, you can do whatever you want with this Treasure or my body!
"Everybody in this store?" Yuan looked at him with a gawking expression. He couldn't imagine getting so many expensive treasures at once, and all he needed to do was share some of his blood.
“I won't ask you to give away your treasure because I don't need so many treasures that I can't use, and I don't want to feel greedy” like I've been taking advantage of you, who is currently bound. by curse. I am satisfied with just the Phoenix Blood, ” Yuan said with a gentle smile on his face.
“”
Seeing Yuan's dazzling smile, Madam Feng narrowed her eyes before bowing to her again. "Thank you, Young Master!"
Madam Feng then said, “Young Master, may I ask for a little more of your blood? Just one drop is enough.”
Yuan nodded and extended his hand.
Madam Feng raised her head and licked the wound on Yuan's palm.
A second later, the wound immediately disappeared, and a few seconds later, a notification appeared before Yuan.
«Vermilion Phoenix has started a temporary maid contract with you!»
“Young Master, the full name of this one is Feng Yuxiang or simply Feng Feng. Until my curse is lifted, I will swear allegiance to Young Master and heed your every command without complaint, and Young Master can use my body as he pleases. Will Young Master allow me to stay by your side?
“Yes, I don't mind.” Yuan nodded. After all, it would benefit him to have another powerful ally by his side.

"Congratulations! Since you have obtained the Divine Beast as your Servant, you have been awarded the unique title of ‘Divine Beast Tamer’!»
After Yuan accepted Feng Yuxiang as his servant, an announcement appeared in the sky for every player to witness.
"Congratulations! Player Yuan has become the first player to obtain the Divine Beast Servant!»
The announcement immediately caused an uproar within the community, setting a wild fire on the internet shortly afterwards.
“Holy Beasts ?” The White Lotus player muttered to himself as he stared at the announcement in the sky with a puzzled expression on his face, and he turned to look at his Two-Tailed Black Cat. As the first player to earn Servant, he was naturally proud of himself. But after Player Yuan suddenly appeared and obtained a Divine level Servant, his achievements were instantly overshadowed. Now that Player Yuan had obtained the Divine Beast, he might as well treat his achievements as if they had never happened.
Meanwhile, in Feng Yuxiang's room, Yu Rou and Xiao Hua looked at Feng Yuxiang with shocked expressions on their faces.
"My brother ... just got a phoenix as his servant?" Yu Rou muttered in a low voice. Although he couldn't help but be a little envious of Yuan, he was also proud of him for other outstanding achievements that would without a doubt shake the entire world.
Xiao Hua, on the other hand, had an uncomfortable and indescribable feeling in his chest, almost like something important and special had been taken from him.
“Thank you, Young Master.” Feng Yuxiang said as he suddenly stood up and kissed Yuan's cheek.
"Aah!" Yu Rou shouted loudly after seeing this, her eyes widened in shock.
A while later, Yuan asked Feng Yuxiang, “I can call you Feng Feng, right? What would you do with this place if you were going to follow me?”
“Yes, Young Master can call me as he pleases. As for Heaven Phoenix, since I do not have anyone I trust enough to entrust them this place, I will only close the store because I will not have time to manage it anymore, ”.
"I understand ..." Yuan nodded, and he continued a moment later, "By the way .. Phoenix Blood …"
"This is the Blood of the Phoenix, Young Master." Feng Yuxiang then handed over the jade slip that contained the Phoenix Blood.
since you are actually Vermilion Phoenix, does this mean that this blood is yours? Yuan suddenly asked him.
"That's right, Young Master," Feng Yuxiang nodded, and he continued, "However, the blood inside the jade slip was taken from my body before I was cursed, so you can also say it's no longer my blood."
"How does the curse work, exactly?" Yuan then asked him.
"Well, it sealed my cultivation base and suppressed it, not allowing me to ascend to the next realm no matter how much I cultivate, hence why I was trapped in the Spirit Grandmaster realm for over 10,000 years now."
“Next, it restricts my bloodline, forcing me to remain in my human form, and I cannot change back into my phoenix form until the curse is sufficiently weakened.”
"Does this mean that you are actually much stronger than you are now?" Yuan continued to ask.
“That's right, Young Master. My actual cultivation base is actually much higher because I was born in a higher realm. I'm just stuck in this place right now because if I wouldn't survive in the higher realms with my current strength.” Feng Yuxiang nodded.
“However, my power will return when the curse weakens. So while I cannot help Young Master much in my current state, once my curse weakens and my strength slowly returns, I will be more useful to Young Master in the future, he said, ”word.
