Chapter 836: Phoenix Wanted To Break Up
“Yeah! Emperor, don’t you know that Lord Phoenix did a good job this time by cleansing the Sea of Blood?” The immortal was in awe, “I heard that there will be no evil spirits in the Sea of Blood within these 500 years . Now, this is considered the real alleviation of the world’s sufferings . ”
The man’s eyes narrowed even further . “She cleansed the Sea of Blood?”
He had been to the Four Evil Paths before, not to mention that he was born during the realm of chaos . Therefore, he was very familiar with the Sea of Blood .
Cleansing the Sea of Blood was not as easy as anybody would think .
The True Buddha was the only exception where he used his own body to cleanse the evil spirits back then .
He swore an oath, “As long as the Sea of Blood is not cleansed, I shall not become a Buddha . ” It was then he finally redeemed the evil spirits .
Beyond that, no one managed to truly cleanse the Sea of Blood, be it Tian Dao or Buddhism .
Even though he was capable of doing so, he did not know that Phoenix could do that as well .
He raised his eyes at the thought of this and his tone was even as he ordered, “Pass the message to Buddhism and bring Phoenix over . ”
“The message was delivered yesterday . Lord Phoenix said that she would not be coming over . ” The immoral replied in a low voice, “Perhaps she’s preparing for the Buddha feast . ”
For a moment, the man’s fingers halted, but he did not say anything else . After all, it was normal for her to be busier after coming back from Hell .
He did not put much thought into this at first .
Up until the third day when his invitation was sent again, all he got was another rejection .

The man went to Buddhism himself and asked Little Monk quietly, “Did something happen to your Lord?”
Little Monk shook his head as he blinked his round eyes . “Nothing, but my Lord has taken a liking to chant sutra under the Bodhi tree recently . She doesn’t seem to go out so often anymore . ”
“Chant sutra under the Bodhi tree?” Repeating the words, the man’s deep-set eyes turned colder and followed by a smile, “Can you ask your Lord when she is planning to dine at Tian Dao after she has done with her sutra chantings?”
Little Monk let out an exclamation . Sensing the change in the atmosphere, he hesitantly said, “Emperor, Lord Phoenix said that she will not be coming anymore . ”
“What is that supposed to mean?” Slowly, he curled his lips . It was a cold, rageful smile that seemed to be the reason behind those drifting clouds .
Little Monk was unable to explain further, but his greatest concern was the Emperor’s wrath . Once the Emperor blows his top, things can go really bad .
The immortal tagging along behind the man had the same idea as well . Hurriedly, he brought the food box forward as he tried to ease the tension in the air . “Little Master, this is the vegetarian meal that the Emperor had specially asked someone to make for her . It is a supplement for her health . Since she’s busy with her sutra chantings, it’s better that we don’t go and interrupt her . So please pass the message and don’t let her starve . ”
“But my Lord doesn’t even allow me to enter! And she has not eaten her vegetarian meal for days . She just locked herself in the forbidden land of Trayastrimsa heaven all this while . Other than watering the Bodhi tree, she did not speak to anyone else . Even for the Buddha feast two days ago, she…”
Before Little Monk finished his sentence, the Emperor had sent the vegetarian dishes flying and smashed onto the floor as he flicked his sleeves . There he was, standing straight with his robe dragging along the floor amid the clink and clatter . The wisp of dark fume swirling from his back was intimidating .
No one dared to stop him . Being the one who led the entire army of monsters and demons, no one had the guts to confront him, not even Buddhism .
He paced the steps shrouded in clouds . There was a lake as clear as jade encircling a giant Bodhi tree and under it was a familiar silhouette . Her eyes were closed lightly with her head leaning against the trunk of the Bodhi tree . Long, black hair spread at her side as her pristine robe flared around her . However, she was unaware of any of these . The Bodhi tree seemed to be the only thing in her eyes . Her face was peaceful and calm as if the Bodhi tree was the only thing she could rely on .
Once again, she put him aside and ignored him .

His cold eyes turned even colder and his voice sank, “So this is your reason for ignoring me these days? To water your beloved Bodhi tree?”
Upon hearing that, Phoenix opened her eyes and gazed in his direction .
She did not expect him to appear .
Most probably she had renewed his interest in taming her after she cleansed the Sea of Blood .
Or maybe he thought that she was yet to be completely conquered by him since she did not contact him these few days .
Whichever it is, it doesn’t matter at all .
Phoenix had no intention to figure it out now, nor did she care to say anything . Instead, she raised her hand .
A bronze mirror fell onto the Emperor’s hand .
That was a miniature version of the magical mirror created by the Emperor . It was meant to be placed in the magical realm as it could record many things .
Once, both of them had promised to create memories together to be stored in the mirror .
Now that she thought about it, there was always a chill sweeping through her upon waking up from the memories .
Should I blame myself for being too proactive?

Like what others used to say, a girl who took the first move would always be less appreciated by others .
Nevertheless, if she were given a second chance, she would still do the same thing .
It was just that her pride did not allow her to be in such disarray .
These days, she heard someone saying that the witch went to the temple .
So, that’s about it for both of them .
How unmeaningful is that actually!
From not seeing eye to eye with one another initially until the agreement manual later on .
Is it because of the loneliness? Is that why I give myself away so easily?
If so, then we’d better go our separate ways .
Phoenix coughed slightly . Her left shoulder still hurt so she did not bother to stand up .
The man’s gorgeous eyes narrowed as he looked at her, “What are you doing?”
“Giving it back to you . ” The way Phoenix curled her lips into a smile was still in her old languid manner .
The Emperor had once mentioned that he hated her careless manner the most, “That’s why I’m asking! What are you doing?”
“We’ve been together for quite some time now . ” Phoenix bent her legs slightly, “Judging from your habit, I suppose it’s about time for us to break up . ”
The Emperor gave a cold laugh, “I have no idea of what my habit is, but if you want to pick up a fight, I suggest that you find a better excuse . ”
“I don’t want to pick up a fight . It’s pointless . ” With her back leaning against the Bodhi tree, Phoenix smirked .
It was not like they never fought before during the time when their relationship was still amicable . Most of the time the fights would end up with a kiss .
However this time, they both knew well that this fight was different from their usual fights .
That was because they had never mentioned breaking up with each other before…
Smiling, Phoenix continued, “It’s just that we should go our own way . It’s about time anyway . ”
The Emperor’s handsome face darkened . He then hauled her to her feet as a scornful smile crept across his thin lips . His fingers were grasping her so tight that his knuckles turned white, “Do you hear yourself?”
