Bian Zhenxin swore to the omnipotent Flame God that he had never seen such a beautiful woman in his entire life.
This was also why he was willing to risk bringing her away; he knew that missing this opportunity would lead to lifelong regret.
Yes, he had encountered Love.
From the first moment he saw the Phoenix, he fell in love with her, thinking only of making this woman his own.
Only the Starry Sky could raise such a delicate young lady; it was impossible on Old Earth. Everyone there was dusty and grim-faced, their complexions were not good, and they didn't know how to dress up.
Even if there were occasionally a few whose appearance was decent and complexion somewhat fair, their demeanor in every movement and gesture—
Yes, their demeanor!
He now understood why he was so moved by the Phoenix; it was because her demeanor was truly too unique.
Standing there silently and quietly, she irresistibly drew everyone's gaze to herself alone. Still as an orchid, radiant as the Bright Moon.
That brilliance was dazzling, that sight so pleasing to the eye, truly a rare sight in one's life.
No, the only one he had ever seen.
He had also accompanied his Father to some banquets and seen the Family Members of the high-level personnel of some Shrines, but compared to the woman before him, they were simply chickens next to a Phoenix.
“Let me go!”
“Let me go! My Dad will kill you all when he gets back!”
“You foolish things!”
Deep in the Dense Forest, the Phoenix was cursing loudly.
Unfortunately, her good upbringing prevented her from uttering any truly foul words, making her performance utterly weak compared to the superb display put on by Tang Fei and Little Fatty earlier.
It was the first time she realized that cursing was also a skill; the flexible combination of Family Members, Elders, and various animal names and body parts could actually produce such a strong chemical reaction, causing blood pressure to soar, emotions to spiral out of control, and easily leading to all sorts of crazy, bottomless actions.
She had to admit that her verbal skills still had huge room for improvement!
“Let her go!” Bian Zhenxin Said aloud.
This woman was already his possession, his private property. Therefore, he couldn't help but feel a sense of cherishing the fairer sex.
Besides, in this deep mountain wilderness, what could a delicate girl descended from a New Star possibly do?
Escape? That was impossible.
Even if she didn't fall into his hands, she would fall into the mouths of those Mutant Beasts.
Better to live miserably than to die honorably—this was a saying every person on Old Earth knew.
And they truly lived by it.
The Grey Robe Person released the Phoenix's arm, restoring her freedom.
The Phoenix stretched her body, showing off her little fists and kicks, and said resentfully to the Black Robe man: “Do you know what you are doing? You just snatch me away... If my Father finds out, he will definitely bring people to kill you.”
Bian Zhenxin watched with great interest. He was completely unafraid of the Phoenix's threats, his smile wild: “Kill us? Do you know who I am? Do you know where I am?”
“They can only approach the Flame Shrine, but our Flame Shrine has overwhelming numbers... Even if your Family has some small influence on the New Star, so what? You understand the principle of the Emperor being too far away to reach distant places, don't you?”
“How many people can you bring? Fifty? One hundred? But do you know how many people the Flame Shrine has? Do you know how many Shrine members there are in just the Hen Shan Gathering Area?”
Survival was too difficult, and life too full of Despair, so humanity yearned for someone to lead them out of suffering and point the way for their lives.
Thus, the omnipotent God was born.
When the Flame Shrine was first established, it was a sacred place for people with faith.
Later, as their influence grew and they were about to replace the previous administrative structure, many people developed ulterior motives.
For survival, for power, for women, and even for self-preservation... everyone tried every means possible to join the Shrine.
As a result, countless thugs, bullies, petty thieves, and even some Predators changed their attire and joined the Flame Shrine.
This place became a den for criminals, a paradise for terrorists.
“Besides, even if you could mobilize a regular army here, so what? We hide in the Dense Forest or forbidden areas... Where would you find us? And even if you found us, if you couldn't kill us, you might fall into the mouths of giant beasts...”
Bian Zhenxin looked towards the Phoenix and said coldly: “So, if I were you, I would obediently comply. If you can manage to please your master, your future days might not be difficult. Otherwise, you will wish for death but be unable to find it.”
“When I get tired of you, I will reward you to my brothers. When my brothers get tired of you, I will sell you to those Predators... Do you know what you will face then? At that time, you will definitely miss my mercy.”
A small, skinny monkey nearby heard the Leader say he would reward the Phoenix to his brothers, and his eyes gleamed. He approached the Black Robe man and suggested: “Divine Envoy, I have calculated, today is an auspicious day. Why don't you and this lady take the sky as your blanket and the earth as your bed... and hold the wedding ceremony right here?”
Bian Zhenxin looked around, quite tempted.
Lust is human nature; he had no resistance to the Phoenix's beauty and sexiness. His mouth had long been dry and his blood boiling. If he could obtain her body sooner, he would naturally be overjoyed.
Moreover, this place was remote and quiet, and his brothers were guarding him. Completing a grand harmony of life in nature was also a style he had always favored.
His only concern was the Phoenix's mood and attitude. He didn't want to appear like an impatient rogue or a base scoundrel; he wanted to gain her favor and capture her heart as much as possible...
“Strange, why am I caring about a woman's thoughts?” Bian Zhenxin was startled.
He had certainly abducted women before; he used them and then discarded them. Only those of particularly high quality were kept at the Shrine for long-term enjoyment.
What was wrong today?
No, no. Women only ruin my state of mind, preventing me from being as impartial as before.
Bian Zhenxin felt he could not be influenced by a woman, so he prepared to accept his Subordinate's suggestion and hold the wedding ceremony in this wilderness.
After returning, who knew what ideas that Old Man back home might get.
He looked at the Phoenix with lecherous eyes and said, “I think what they said makes a lot of sense. What do you think?”
“Don’t come near me!” The Phoenix clutched her Chest. In the melodramatic romance dramas she watched, this was how the heroine reacted when being violated.
Her body retreated repeatedly, her Face Pale, and she said in a panicked voice: “Don’t come near me...”
“Divine Envoy, she is summoning you...” the skinny monkey said with a grin.
In their eyes, when a Helpless woman shouted this phrase to a man, wasn't it a signal of invitation?
Bian Zhenxin’s spirit lifted. He waved his hands at his Subordinates, signaling them to retreat from the encirclement and not follow to spoil their pleasure.
“Divine Envoy, enjoy yourself...”
“Divine Envoy, we will help count... Hope we can break the record again this time!”
“Leave the safety to us, not even a fly can get past us.”
The Grey Robes shouted cheerfully, more excited than if they were participating themselves.
Bian Zhenxin, cloaked in a Black Robe, walked toward the Phoenix with a playful smile.
One step, then another...
The faster the Phoenix retreated, the faster he pursued.
The slower the Phoenix retreated, the slower he pursued.
He liked this dynamic. Noble ladies from the New Star really knew how to play, unlike those Old Earth women he abducted, who just lay there like dead pigs, never mastering any new tricks from beginning to end.
Bang!
The Phoenix’s back hit the trunk of a large tree heavily. This tree had a diameter of over a meter, its leaves lush and shading the sky.
“Right here!” Bian Zhenxin stretched out both hands, pinning the Phoenix’s body.
His two arms formed a perfect closed loop with the tree. The Phoenix could not move, and their Heads were extremely close.
“Right here!” The Phoenix squinted and smiled.
Bian Zhenxin felt a sense of astonishment; this woman’s smile was too beautiful.
However, he felt that something was not quite right.
Why was she smiling? Was this something she had long anticipated?
She said, “Right here...”
Why did she say that?
Danger!
Just as this thought flashed through his mind, he saw the Phoenix suddenly raise her lower leg and knee.
Bang!
A heavy sound followed.
It sounded like something shattering.
Then, Bian Zhenxin’s body bent like a bow, his expression distorted by pain.
Simultaneously, a Black Shadow descended from the sky.
Chak!
The Saber Blade of the Dog-leg Saber cleanly pierced the crown of Bian Zhenxin’s Head, sinking into his Brain.
