Pheonix Against The World

Chapter 5

"Miss is only twelve years old and she has already become a summoner. If she work hard and practice, she'll surely achieve big someday which cause people, who used to look down on us, have a change of heart." Dong Ling inwardly rejoiced.

"One star?" Huang Bei Yue raised her eyebrows slightly. "I made a contract with the Ice phoenix. My power is the same as the crown prince in a fight. One star! it's too weak."

However, looking at Dong Ling's happy face, she lost the urge to explain.

"Dong Ling, I'm still weak right now. Let's jeep this a secret to avoid unnecessary trouble. We can reveal it when the Empress Dowager and Princess Xi comes back, okay?"

"I know, Miss." Dong Ling quickly answered. "The Miss is is very different from the past. She's able to consider the matter thoroughly. She has her own views and assertive. Completely different from the weak, naive, and cry-baby Miss I know. Miss has really grown up! If Princess Wen Hui was still here, and could see Mistress like this, she'd be thrilled."

In the afternoon, Huang Bei Yue didn't step out of the house to study the "Beasts Without Boundaries".

She tried to use her mental energy to slowly check the situation inside the black jade. But every time she do so, its as if she had run into a wall. No matter how much her attempts to concentrate, she can't break through the barrier. She could vaguely sense a formidable power surging in the black jade, as if millions of beast are raging. Terrified, she wondered whats the depth of devastation and destruction caused by the power stored in the jade if she were to release it.

She was faintly expectant, despite her inability to check on the situation in the black jade, she still able to establish a connection with the black jade. Like how she was able to harness the black jade's power to defeat the Ice phoenix today. It has even caused her hair color and appearance to change. If she was able to gather enough energy, perhaps she could understand the "Beasts Without Boundaries" more deeply.

Without realizing, the sky had darkened. Dong Ling hurriedly came in and said, "Miss, Master has called everyone to the front hall."

"What happened?" Huang Bei Yue asked. She stood up after putting away the black jade.

Dong Ling shook her head. The manor's maidservants have always been snobby towards her. They refused to associate with her because of the fear of contracting bad luck. That's why she wasn't able to hear any news.

"Let's go and see." She also wanted to see those people who forced Huang Bei Yue to die.

She walked out with Dong Ling without changing her plain clothes.

Walking through the empty Flowing Clouds Pavilion for a long time, voices could gradually be heard. The First Princess' manor was full of servants. Not to mention wealthy, it had the glory of Princess Wen Hui's name as well as the influence of the Xiao family. So it was incredibly lively.
