Chapter 44: Chapter 44: She Doesn’t Want the Scum Ex-Husband 4

Ji Xiaosong was caught in a moment of hesitation, but Feng Cangwu, seemingly unaware of her thoughts, simply took an exquisite brocade box from within his robes.

He gently opened the box, revealing a Spiritual Pearl that emitted a faint golden glow. A nebula seemed to swirl across its surface, and wisps of Spiritual Energy continuously flowed out from it.

"This is the ’Star Nebula Spirit Pearl.’ It can automatically absorb nature’s spiritual energy and store it. If you hold it while you practice your Cultivation, it will help you stabilize your Spiritual Power and greatly increase your speed."

Next, he took out a yellowed ancient tome, its cover engraved with complex runes.

"This is the ’Red Flame Nirvana Technique.’ I happened upon it in some ruins. This manual records many unique Cultivation Methods and will surely be of miraculous help when you’re breaking through cultivation bottlenecks."

After that, Feng Cangwu produced a small Jade Bottle that radiated a gentle luster.

"Inside are ’Spirit Marrow Pills’ that I personally refined from many rare spirit materials. They will not only nourish your meridians but also gradually strengthen your constitution, making your foundation even more solid."

Ji Xiaosong stared at these precious gifts, her mouth agape in astonishment. It took her a long moment to recover.

"Why are you giving me these?"

Any one of these items would be fought over madly if taken outside. They were incredibly rare treasures.

"You are to form a Contract with me, and you will one day be the mother of my children. These are merely small trinkets you need right now. In the future, I will give you more. This is all what you deserve."

Since he put it that way, Ji Xiaosong accepted them without any guilt.

Seeing Ji Xiaosong accept the items so frankly, Feng Cangwu was very pleased.

If all went as expected, Ji Xiaosong would accompany him for tens of millions of years.

The key to their relationship would be good communication and open channels for discussion.

If they were always coy and secretive, with no honesty between them, it would easily lead to many misunderstandings.

And those misunderstandings were entirely avoidable.

Even with their long lifespans, they shouldn’t waste time like that.

"It was improper of me to test you before, but I don’t believe it was a mistake. Testing your reactions and abilities in a life-or-death situation was the fastest way for me to screen candidates."

After speaking, he took out a Storage Ring and handed it to Ji Xiaosong.

"This Storage Ring is filled with top-grade spiritual stones. As for how many, I can’t even count them myself. From now on, they’re all yours. Take them and use them as you please. I won’t ask any questions."

’So generous, so straightforward!’

The corners of Ji Xiaosong’s mouth stretched into an ever-widening grin.

She recalled her original body’s previous life. After forming a Contract with Xu Yang, she constantly had to provide him with various Immortal Spirit Springs and Spirit Plants to nourish his body. She supplied him with a never-ending stream of Elixir Pills, all because every year, during the month of his birth, he would fall into a state of extreme agony, much like a phoenix’s nirvana.

Thinking about her past life and comparing it to Feng Cangwu’s actions, Ji Xiaosong couldn’t help but feel a wave of emotion.

’From now on, things will definitely get better and better for me.’

Even if there wasn’t necessarily love between her and Feng Cangwu, at least she would be well-provided for materially.

And Feng Cangwu also seemed like he would be a good father.

’In that case...’

’I might as well seal the deal as soon as possible!’

Ji Xiaosong looked up at Feng Cangwu, a peculiar light glinting in her eyes.

She suddenly took a step forward, stood on her tiptoes, and kissed Feng Cangwu on the lips without a hint of hesitation.

Once again, Feng Cangwu was caught completely off guard. His body instantly stiffened.

’She... she... she...’

’How could she kiss me again!’

’How can she be so bold!’

Ji Xiaosong’s kiss was somewhat innocent yet incredibly daring. Her tongue gently touched Feng Cangwu’s lips, trying to part them.

Feng Cangwu came back to his senses and wanted to push Ji Xiaosong away, but he hesitated the moment he touched her soft body.

"Cangwu, don’t you want to be closer to me?" Ji Xiaosong took the opportunity to murmur in his ear.

Her voice carried a hint of seduction, and her hands, not behaving themselves, quietly wrapped around Feng Cangwu’s waist.

Feng Cangwu’s breathing grew ragged. He tried his best to restrain himself and said in a low voice, "I... we... we haven’t formed the Contract yet."

"Heh..."

But Ji Xiaosong paid him no mind, leaving a faint, warm trace on Feng Cangwu’s neck, a touch that was barely there.

Feng Cangwu felt a rush of heat shoot straight to his head. In that instant, his reason was on the verge of crumbling.

"Since you’re so determined, we’ll form the Contract now!" Feng Cangwu’s voice was deep and powerful.

With that, his hands quickly formed a series of seals as he chanted an incantation. The surrounding Spiritual Energy instantly erupted, forming a massive vortex.

Ji Xiaosong was slightly stunned by this sudden development, but a look of delight quickly appeared on her face.

Streams of runes flew from Feng Cangwu’s fingertips, circling around the two of them.

"With my blood, I bond my spirit, forging a connection for a lifetime!" Feng Cangwu shouted. A drop of heart’s blood flew from his chest toward Ji Xiaosong.

This method of forming a Contract was completely different from the one bestowed by the Phoenix King. A Contract formed by the powerful was more potent and domineering. It could not be broken by others and was overseen by the Heavenly Dao.

Ji Xiaosong also forced out a drop of her own heart’s blood without hesitation, and it merged with Feng Cangwu’s in mid-air.

In that instant, a brilliant light flared, illuminating the entire room.

When the light dissipated, a faint, shimmering red thread connected the two of them. The Contract was a success.

After the Contract was successfully formed, the entire Phoenix Clan territory was thrown into turmoil.

The once-dark night sky was instantly enveloped by fiery red clouds. Two enormous phoenix phantoms appeared, crying out to the heavens with a sound that echoed through the firmament.

The mountains where the Phoenix Clan resided began to tremble. The rare birds and beasts within the mountains raised their heads and let out long cries, their calls rising and falling one after another.

The clan’s Spirit Pool also underwent a strange transformation. The water became crystal clear, shimmering with a seven-colored light, and the Spirit Crystals at the bottom of the pool began to shine one by one, as dazzling as stars.

Near Phoenix Splendor Hall, the Phoenix King and Queen Phoenix exchanged a look. Others might not recognize them, but they could see it with perfect clarity.

Of the two phoenix phantoms in the sky, one was gold and the other was red. The Red Phoenix was clearly in the likeness of their Song.

The other golden one was, without a doubt, the ancestor of the Phoenix Clan.

’Our Song is truly amazing!’

At the same time, Xu Yang, who had been in the middle of expressing his deepest feelings to Ji Huadan through "practical action," stopped everything he was doing, threw on some clothes, and flew outside.

Seeing the two intimate phantoms in the sky, Xu Yang’s eyes widened instantly, filled with disbelief and rage.

His hands clenched into tight fists, his knuckles turning white from the force.

"How could it... How could it be her!" Xu Yang said, gritting his teeth, his voice filled with unwillingness and resentment.

His body trembled slightly, veins popping on his forehead, and the fury in his heart felt as if it would burn him to ashes.

He had thought Ji Xiaosong had no other choice, but who would have thought she would find a Golden Phoenix to form a Contract with out of nowhere!

’No!’

’How could there still be a Golden Phoenix in this world?’

’It must be a scheme by the Phoenix King and Queen Phoenix!’

’Their daughter couldn’t form a Contract with a Red Phoenix like him, so they must have found a Spell somewhere that creates illusions to deceive the world.’

At this thought, Xu Yang snorted coldly, turned, and went back into the room to continue the "great, unfinished business" with Ji Huadan.

In the bedchamber of Qingyu Hall, Feng Cangwu no longer suppressed the thought that had just popped into his head.
