You secretly protect me in disguise

Ru Jing was pensive for a moment but seconds later she smiled. She let go of her grasp of the two hands that were holding the Phoenix's arms, standing in front of her. She flicked her middle finger and her thumb, and the next second Grandma Fen Fang's form stood before Phoenix with almost all of her hair white, with wrinkles in several places on her face adorning her frail face.

Phoenix's lips opened wide, dumbfounded. She did not think that the person she had considered a figure she respected became a role model in her life. Of course, in her life as a human, not in her life as a Phoenix. because Phoenix's level was far above Ru Jing's in terms of magical power, rank in the heavens as well as in terms of ages.

The next second her face broke into a wide smile and she again raised her hands, signalling for Ru Jing to come closer so she could hug her again. "So, you've been secretly protecting me in disguise all this time?" she asked, her right-hand stroking Ru Jing's back while her left hand tightly gripped her neck under the back of her head.

Phoenix was so grateful, she didn't know what would have happened if Ru Jing had not disguised herself and been present in her life as a human. With a shaky and vulnerable soul. With a single magical power of the flick of hand fan can make her faith fall. But luckily that didn't happen.

Xuan Ti who saw the two letting go of longing stood up from his seat and stood slightly to the side so as not to disturb the two who seemed lost in longing for each other. Smiling happily for them.

On the other hand, last night when Phoenix fainted on Xuan Ti's embrace, Xuan Lung stood two Steps away from Phoenix who was lying on Xuan Ti's embrace, both hands clenched tightly, jaw clenched, dark eyes staring intently at Xuan Ti's figure who was busy calling Phoenix, furious.

His face was red, holding back emotions, he should be the one hugging Phoenix right now. he really cares for her, and always wants to be near her, no matter what. He would do anything to keep Phoenix out of harm's way.

But now he stood still transfixed, unable to reach out to even hug her. In addition to the anger that enveloped his mind, he was also worried about Pheonix.

'Stupid! Quickly get her inside so she doesn't catch a cold out here. The wind is blowing hard, and she could catch a cold." He cursed inwardly, resented by Xuan Ti's sluggish attitude.

'He's the god of war in the celestial heaven, he's fought a lot of battles, and is used to dealing with people's stupor. But why is he now so stupid and can't move fast'

Xuan Lung, continue to curse inwardly.

As Xuan Ti followed Yuen Fei's suggestion to take Phoenix to her room, he followed closely behind. Not only him but all the dragon kings also followed and walked behind him.

They continued walking until they entered Phoenix's bedroom. Xuan Ti slowly laid Phoenix down on her bed.

"Call the celestial healer, no… no… call Ru Jing. She definitely knows what to do with Phoenix!" Xuan Ti exclaimed frantically.

Everyone in the room exchanged glances with each other, then looked back at Xuan Ti, astonished. They thought that he had lost his mind.

"Phoenix!" Everyone in the room except Xuan Lung, exclaimed in unison, shocked.

When they are invited to attend a meal. No one told them that the Phoenix had been found. They only knew that the girls they had met with were friends of Xuan Ti. After all, there was no phoenix aura emanating from the body of the woman during a meal party who was now lying on the bed.

"What do you mean by Pheonix, Xuan Ti. She is the long-lost Phoenix?" Zhu Lung, who was a talkative person, quickly realized his surprise and ventured to ask.

"Yes, she is Phoenix" Xuan Ti replied curtly, not wanting to waste time at a crucial time like this.

On the other hand, Qing Lung, who had also come to his senses from his shock, asked something else.

"Ru Jing? Xuan Ti, Ru Jing disappeared along with Phoenix. no one knows where she is now, if she is Phoenix, only she knows where Ru Jing is now" replied Qing Lung straightforwardly, representing everyone in the room with a confused look.

Hearing the answer from Qing Lung, Xuan Ti sighed. He just remembered that the only ones who knew of Ru Jing's whereabouts were Bing Wen and him. He couldn't leave Phoenix because he would be much more worried if he wasn't with her right now.

"Find Bing Wen and pass my message to him. He will know what to do" Xuan Ti replied impatiently.

Again, everyone in the room looked at each other, frowning. They knew clearly that Xuan Ti was also looking for Ru Jing when he couldn't find Phoenix. but every update he would tell them. But why when he found it, he didn't tell them.

After hearing Xuan Ti's words, without waiting for the others Xuan Lung disappeared instantly from Phoenix room. and the next second he was in the yellow palace. Inside Xuan Ti's study room.

When he saw the figure of Bing Wen standing not far from Xuan Ti's desk. He called him "Bing Wen, Xuan Ti asked you to find Ru Jing and bring her to the Phoenix residence now!" he spoke in one breath and in firm voice.

From Xuan Lung's tone, Bing Wen guessed that something must have happened, so he didn't waste any time. He immediately disappeared from there.

Xuan Lung also disappeared, returning to the Phoenix residence, waiting.

Bing Wen appeared in Ru Jing's room at Xiao Hai's house.

Ru Jing was really surprised, because suddenly there was a plop sound and seconds later Bing Wen appeared, and she didn't even have time to open her mouth to ask. Bing Wen grabbed her wrist and the next second they both disappeared in an instant.

Everyone was waiting anxiously in Phoenix's room, but a female voice was heard and broke the silence in the room.

"What are you doing!" Ru Jing rebuked Bing Wen, she didn't like it when someone didn't tell her beforehand but just started acting like a jerk. her eyes glared furiously at Bing Wen.

"Ru Jing!" Xuan Ti calls out, who doesn't mind her anger toward his guard

She quickly turned to the source of the voice that called out to her. And in that second, she realized that she was in Phoenix's room at Phoenix residence and all the dragon kings were looking at her with a look like seeing a ghost with their mouths wide open, confused.

And her next glance fell on Xuan Ti, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, and there she saw Phoenix lying there. Her eyes narrowed sharply. With hasty steps, she approached the two of them.

"What happened to her?" she asked without even glancing at Xuan Ti who was sitting beside Phoenix.

"Could you please just check on her?" Xuan Ti's voice sounded low and deep. Everyone in the room knew that his patience was at its limit. If it wasn't for Phoenix lying there, Ru Jing could have been blown away and landed on the room wall and get injured

Ru Jing just realized who she was talking to. Because of her concern for Phoenix, she forgot who she was dealing with. In front of Xuan Ti, she was nothing but Phoenix's assistant in her lifetime as a Phoenix.

With trembling and anxious hands, she examined Phoenix. She didn't want anything to happen to Phoenix, with her current state of being so weak. She could have disappeared instantly from the universe, and this time she would be gone for good.
