31 Chapter 31: The decision of the Phoenix God

Chapter 31:

"..." Phoenix stared at Yu Tian and was confused as she did not know what to do upon seeing Yu Tian's categorical rejection.

"So what do you think we should do?" - After thinking for a while, Phoenix decided to get the opinion of the person in question.

"There are three options and no fourth," Yu Tian said without hesitation as he raised three fingers in front of Phoenix's pair of eyes.

"Interesting to hear these options," Phoenix said with undisguised curiosity.

"The first option is to hand over the inheritance to me without this trial, as I am the heir of the White Tiger and the Black Turtle."

"The second option is to change the trial to test my heart without seeing my memories."

"The third option is that I will leave since I don't really need your inheritance."

Yu Tian was telling the truth as he did not care about the Phoenix Heirloom as he could easily buy it from the store and he would not hesitate to walk out of the trial even though he felt a little regretful about giving up the system rewards.

Although the rewards of the system were very tempting, Yu Tian did not hesitate to give them up as his memories were the most precious to him.

Phoenix was surprised as from Yu Tian's expression it seemed that he didn't really care about her legacy.

"Huh~" - Phoenix sighed lightly and decided to trust the White Tiger's decision for once since he was still a Divine Beast - "Okay, I will accept the first option and hope that my choice is not wrong."

"That's good." Yu Tian nodded and was satisfied with Phoenix's choice as he did not hesitate to use the Teleportation Scroll if Phoenix tried to force him to do something he did not want.

"So as a reward for completing the trial, you will get 10 drops of Phoenix god blood essence, in addition to a portion of the World Ode of the Phoenix, in addition to Phoenix pills to increase your cultivation."

As soon as he finished speaking, a light suddenly appeared in the dark space before the aforementioned items fell into Yu Tian's hand.

"You are honest and upright." - Yu Tian nodded with undisguised admiration - "You have a good character, so why do you want to serve me?"

"!!!" Hearing Yu Tian's words, Phenix was stunned and her mind couldn't comprehend what Yu Tian was saying for a moment.

As a Divine Beast, Phenix had always been respected and revered, even in the Age of Gods, this was no different as no one dared to ask her to serve him. Even the Gods of Creation knew the pride of the Divie Beasts and did not ask them to serve them.

And how Yu Tian spoke as if he was doing Phenix a favor by serving him made Phenix's mind unable to keep up.

Yu Tian wanted to complete the mission of the system, but he did not know how to ask others to serve him, so he used the methods he saw in Chinese novels in his past life.

"And if you swear allegiance to me, I will revive you," Yu Tian said, throwing another bomb at poor Phoenix, whose mind was still keeping pace with his first words.

'Bring me back to life?' What does this mortal say? ' - Phoenix thought and quickly the desire and thirst for life rose as well as anger and disbelief.

As a divine Beast Phoenix knew how difficult it was to bring the dead back to life and even the four gods of creation could not do this, so she was angry at this mortal who was talking nonsense.

'But he is her heir and besides, he possesses Divine Human Veins.' Thinking carefully, Phoenix couldn't help but feel that there was some credibility in Yu Tian's words.

Even if reviving the dead was impossible, even for the four gods of creation, that did not mean that no one had accomplished this feat.

It is true that there was someone who had succeeded in reviving the dead before. In addition, it was not just an ordinary revival, as a person whose soul had been completely destroyed was revived, and he did not even have the opportunity to reincarnate again, but under everyone's gaze, the soul and body were recreated, and soon The person returned to life safe and sound, in addition to all his memories being intact.

Phoenix's mind quickly worked at full speed to calculate the pros and cons and she spoke - "If you revive me, I will swear allegiance to you."

Phoenix was a proud being and she was going to keep her promise as she would swear allegiance to Yu Tian and serve him once she was revived.

"I trust your character to keep your word, but unfortunately I cannot revive you," Yu Tian said with some embarrassment, as reviving Phoenix was a reward for completing the mission and was not something he could do.

"…" Phoenix stared at Yu Tian and was speechless for a while.

Since when does resurrecting the dead have such rules? Why didn't Phoenix know this?

'But he doesn't seem to be lying' - Phoenix thought upon seeing Yu Tian's embarrassed expression. As someone who has lived for millions of years, she could easily tell that Yu Tian was not lying as he said that she had to swear allegiance to him so that she could return to life.

Frankly, the temptation to return to life was great for Phoenix, especially after the accident that happened a few years ago with her other half, which made her disappearance even faster, to the point that she felt the claws of death surrounding her and could not wait to plunge her into eternal darkness.

"Inhale ~ ... Exhale ~ ..." - Phoenix could only take a deep breath before giving the answer that would decide her fate - "I..."
