The Rising Phoenix

Bai Xifeng was skipping her step while humming a song. Xiao Li was walking behind her Young Miss and felt something was off about her Young Miss but like before, she could not point it out.

"Xiao Li, go to the kitchen and ask for the food." Bai Xifeng ordered Xiao Li.

"But Young Miss, I'm afraid they will give the same kind of food given this morning." Xiao Li sighed.

"Don't worry about that. I already settled it just now with the old hag. Just threaten them if they give that same shit." Bai Xifeng said.

Xiao Li obeyed her Young Miss's order and went to the kitchen to ask for the food. Meanwhile, Bai Xifeng went back to the storage room. She wanted to find something that she thought she could use.

Tidying her outfit, she searched for something. The dust in the storage room showed how long this room was untouched by humans. When she reached for something, she hurt her finger.

"Ouch, that hurts." Bai Xifeng retreated her hand to see the injured finger. She could the blood flowing down.

Bai Xifeng wanted to treat the wound on her finger so she decided to go outside. But before she managed to get out, she heard a voice.

"Finally someone is worth here." It was a deep man's voice.

Bai Xifeng became alerted. She looked around. She wanted to find the source of the voice but she did not see anyone else here. Only she was here. Then, where the heck of that man's voice came from? Ghost? Bai Xifeng shivered. She was not a fan of the ghost.

"You wonder where I come from?" The man was guessing from Bai Xifeng's facial expression.

"What do you want from me?" Bai Xifeng braved herself and asked the voice a question.

"What do you think I want from you?" The man wanted to play with Bai Xifeng because he could see that Bai Xifeng was trying to be brave.

"How do I know about that? Wait? Do you want my body? I will not let you have it." Bai Xifeng said in anger.

The man laughed when he got the answer from the girl. The girl is very funny. She was scared but she was trying to make herself brave.

"Girl, do you want to know who I am?" The man asked.

"Yes. I want to know." Bai Xifeng nodded.

"Then, pick up the mirror on the floor below." The man told Bai Xifeng.

Bai Xifeng looked down. She could see a small mirror. She bent down and picked up the mirror. Then she saw blood on the mirror.

"Whose blood is on this mirror?" Bai Xifeng asked in shock.

"Girl, that is your own blood. You hurt your finger just now." The man answered.

"Oh, ha ha ha... I forget about that." Bai Xifeng laughed at her stupidity.

The man was silent. Is this the person that he had been waiting for so long? She was kind of stupid. He sighed. Well, he already confirmed it from her blood.

"Touch the mirror and say, 'Combine.' Hurry up and say it." The man ordered Bai Xifeng.

Bai Xifeng did not do it right away. She just observed the mirror. The design of the mirror looked pretty old. Well, it fits the timeline. 'What was this dynasty's name? What year is this? Wait, this world is full of strange things. Cultivation... Spirit energy... Even animals are weird. Where the heck is this place? Hey, handsome death god, why don't you send me to a normal place?' Bai Xifeng was talking in her mind.

The man was waiting for Bai Xifeng to do what he just said but nothing happened. Bai Xifeng was just standing with her rapid change of facial expression. What is this girl thinking about?

"Oi, girl... Oi..." The man tried to call Bai Xifeng.

"Owh, you are still here." Bai Xifeng commented.

"Girl, are you listening to me before?" The man asked.

"What?" Bai Xifeng indeed did not listen to what the man had been talking about. She was in her own thoughts.

The man sighed. "Listen to me, will you? Touch the mirror and say, 'Combine.' Hurry up." The man asked Bai Xifeng to do it.

Bai Xifeng frowned. 'Why should I do what this voice asks?' She did not know this voice. She was not that stupid, okay?

"Why are you not doing it?" The man could not help but ask Bai Xifeng when he saw Bai Xifeng was still not doing anything.

"Why should I do it? What is the benefit of doing that? And the most important thing, who are you? What are you doing in my storage room? Are you a ghost here?" Bai Xifeng asked about the man's identity.

The man was stunned. Usually, when a person heard something like this, the person would automatically follow what had been asked him or her to do. But this girl, she was asking about its benefits.

Bai Xifeng was waiting for the voice to answer her question. She was not so scared of the voice as before.

"You can't cultivate, right?" The man asked.

"Yes." Bai Xifeng answered on the spot. Well, it was the truth actually. There was no point for her to lie about that.

The man was once again stunned. He thought she would be lying about that. An average person would panic. However, this girl admitted it just like that. As expected, she was really worth waiting for.

"What? Why are you not answering my question? Tell me, who you are?" Ji Feng Han asked.

"Do you want to know who I am?" The man asked Ji Feng Han back.

"Of course." Ji Feng Han wanted to meet the owner of this voice and study him. She gave a creepy smile.
