Chapter 736 - Confident Gu Ruxue

The Second Lady of the Chu Family cried out, and everyone turned to the direction she looked at.

Everyone present got transfixed at the sight of the thing. It was a phoenix bathed in a s.h.i.+ning red color, and the phoenix let out a catchy sound as it flew. The voice was so beautiful as if it were the most beautiful sound in the whole world.

The phoenix kept soaring above the sky, looking really beautiful.

After it flew a circle, the phoenix seemed to come flying towards the pitch of the Spring Hunt.

Everyone was excited and nervous. A phoenix was something that was rarely seen within hundreds of years" time. Many people got to know about the phoenix through historical books. Also, a phoenix was a very magical thing, and if the phoenix chose a master, that person would have a very high position in the capital city.

Although there was every chance that the phoenix would land upon any of them, everyone present was hoping that it would choose them as the master.

However, Gu Ruxue was different. She was surprised and excited at the sight of the flying phoenix. She was the Phoenix Girl! The Phoenix Girl was able to make hundreds of birds fly about. That was what happened on her birthday!

The phoenix was the head of all birds. Since birds took her as the master, then the phoenix was definitely here for her too!

Gu Ruxue was especially excited. She had not expected that there could be such a surprise at the Spring Hunt. When the phoenix took her as the master, she would be the real Phoenix Girl without any suspicion. She could already imagine how glorious she would be, when such a thing happened later.

Meanwhile, Lord Ling and the King were also very excited.

That was a phoenix! That was something belonging to the Phoenix Girl!

Although they had all witnessed the scene where hundreds of birds were flying through the sky, things were different now. The phoenix was an auspicious omen. Since the Destiny Monk was never found, both Lord Ling and the King were feeling una.s.sured, but now things were different.

The phoenix was here, so the Destiny Monk should show up very soon too.

Lord Ling was very excited. His hands were tightly clenched, and he could not help raising his head. That phoenix was going to Gu Ruxue, and he was the man that owned the Phoenix Girl.

He was going to be the person that everyone was jealous of.

He could already imagine how much honor he would receive later.

The phoenix was flying in a very elegant way and was approaching the ladies little by little.

Everyone"s expression was changing.

Only Gu Chaoyan was watching the whole thing calmly. The phoenix would not land upon any of them no matter how much they wished that it could, because she raised the phoenix, which grew from a featherless bird to its present state. Now it looked exactly like a phoenix. It belonged to her only.

The phoenix seemed to find it funny to tease those people. So it kept flying through the sky near and far instead of landing.

Gu Chaoyan was feeling helpless, but she let the bird have fun anyway.

The phoenix had been trapped inside the s.p.a.ce for too long and it must have been too bored not to have enough fun out here.

Gu Ruxue just could not wait and said, "The phoenix is so naughty. Just come to me, stop playing around." She looked extremely proud as she said those words.

She was very certain that the phoenix was hers, so she was saying these words confidently.

When the Second Lady of the Chu Family heard that, she asked instantly, "Princess Consort, this phoenix is yours?"
