Chapter 159: Controlling the Phoenix
Mingyan was stunned. Then he found that the phoenix had taken the initiative to grab his hand and place it on her body. She was crying with grievance on one side, and on the other, she was taking the initiative to take off her clothes. Seeing this, Mingyan immediately understood. This was Huang Feiyan.
Mingyan quickly stopped Huang Feiyan’s movements. “Feiyan?!”
“Hmm… why are you stopping me?” Huang Feiyan was stunned for a moment, then wiped the tears from her face with her hand and quickly said, “Mingyan… I can’t control my body on my own. The phoenix only gave me a period of time to control my body. Just as you said, we have to hurry up and let me get pregnant!”
Huang Feiyan was obviously well aware of what Mingyan and the phoenix had said. It seemed that although she could not control her body before, she knew exactly what was happening outside.
The phoenix herself was obviously extremely disgusted with this matter. And Huang Feiyan could feel the phoenix’s emotions. So in Huang Feiyan’s opinion, as long as it was something the other party was unwilling to do, it was a means to restrain the other party.
“Feiyan, listen to me…” Mingyan had originally not found a chance to carve the slave mark. But at this moment, with Huang Feiyan briefly regaining control of her body, this plan had a complete opportunity to be implemented.
However, from Huang Feiyan’s side, the phoenix had the actual control over this body. And just now, Huang Feiyan had also said that the phoenix had only given her a short period of time, and then she would take back control. From this, it could be seen that if his intention to carve a slave mark was exposed, then the phoenix would definitely not let him succeed. Moreover, even if the phoenix did not directly have control over the body now, she was naturally as aware of the outside situation as Huang Feiyan was.
To play tricks in front of the phoenix and carve a slave mark… he needed to think of some ways.
Mingyan thought for a moment and said, “You will push the phoenix to the brink like this…”
“But she wants to occupy my body!” Huang Feiyan was a little anxious. “If I don’t do something she hates…”
“Feiyan, do you trust me?” Mingyan looked at Huang Feiyan, his eyes serious.
“Of course!” Huang Feiyan nodded without hesitation. She had unconditional trust in Mingyan.
“Then leave it to me to handle,” Mingyan took a deep breath. “This matter needs to be considered in the long run. I still hope to reach some consensus with the phoenix…”
These words from Mingyan were not only for Huang Feiyan but also for the phoenix. The purpose was to let the phoenix lower her guard. As long as she thought he had the idea of talking to her, she would not do some things too extreme. After all, for now, it was Mingyan who had the initiative. Mingyan could completely do some disgusting things to hurt her, and besides accepting “talking,” the phoenix had no other way.
“Hmm…” although Huang Feiyan didn’t know what Mingyan wanted to do, she still nodded.
“Phoenix, I know you can hear me. If you don’t want me to do those things, it’s very simple. I only have one condition. Let me and Feiyan be able to talk anytime, anywhere,” Mingyan said with a serious expression.
Huang Feiyan blinked. After a long while, she said, “She refused.”
Mingyan was not surprised at all and said calmly, “Don’t forget, you have no right to negotiate now. I’m giving you a chance. I hope you won’t be ungrateful.”
Huang Feiyan waited for a while, and the corners of her lips couldn’t help but curve upwards slightly. “She’s furious. She’s thinking that no one has ever dared to talk to her like this before.”
“Don’t delay. My patience is limited,” Mingyan was a little impatient, and his eyes gradually became gloomy.
After a long while, Huang Feiyan finally looked at Mingyan. “She… she agreed… Mingyan!”
Mingyan’s expression finally relaxed a little. Mingyan said, “Given that you have deceived me before, I must leave some countermeasures. I need to carve a formation pattern on your forehead.”
Huang Feiyan’s expression was strange. “She’s alert… she wants to take control of her body. It’s more convenient to talk to you like this.”
“I won’t allow it. Otherwise, I won’t negotiate,” Mingyan refused calmly.
The phoenix was naturally about to die of anger. Since she had become a Saint, no one had dared to give her a look. Even before she had become a Saint, when she was young and anonymous, those people had not called her a celestial and had been respectful to her.
As for after becoming an Emperor, there was no need to say more. Reigning over the world, who would dare to be disrespectful to her?
But now it was really a dragon swimming in shallow water being teased by shrimp, a phoenix in distress was not as good as a chicken. Such a little brat dared to refuse her like this?!
And, the most disgusting thing was that she really needed to look at his face, at least for now.
Her heart was full of anger that had nowhere to vent. But in the end, the phoenix calmed down. She knew a lot about formations. Although she had not specifically studied this path, she had also learned some things and knew some things about formations.
A formation carved on a person’s body was a formation pattern. Mingyan wanted to leave a formation pattern on this body…
The phoenix sealed her inner thoughts. Huang Feiyan couldn’t know her thoughts. Otherwise, her thoughts would definitely be revealed to Mingyan by Huang Feiyan. That transaction would not be fair. The phoenix didn’t know what tricks Mingyan had up his sleeve, while her own thoughts were displayed in front of the other party.
Most formation patterns could be resolved, but some could not… If it was the former, it was fine. If it was the latter, then it would be a little troublesome.
But as a Supreme Dao Great Emperor, the phoenix had many ways to resolve a formation pattern. But now, after more than a million years of evolution, whether the formation was still as it was in the past, that was hard to say.
Among the formations, there were some that the phoenix deeply detested, for example, the slave mark…
Once this formation pattern was carved, the person with the slave mark would lose the sovereignty of their own body. If their will was not firm, they would even be corroded by the slave mark and gradually become a real slave. The slave mark could only be gradually freed from its shackles with the continuous improvement of one’s strength, slowly gaining a higher degree of freedom, and completely breaking free from its control.
But the problem was… if the master was unwilling, she would never be able to break through in her lifetime… to be carved with a slave mark was equivalent to being crippled.
More importantly, the last clansmen of the Phoenix God Clan were controlled by a slave mark and even became enemies on the phoenix’s path of revenge. She deeply detested this kind of formation pattern and had even erased all books and scriptures about it in the world.
There should be no slave marks in this world.
But what the phoenix had not expected was that this kind of formation pattern had still been passed down. Or rather, because of demand, it had been created again by later generations. Although for various reasons, the current slave mark was far from being as popular as it was then, it still existed. And, Mingyan happened to know.
As the phoenix sealed her own heart, her control over her physical body naturally also decreased. Huang Feiyan found an opportunity and directly took real control of the body!
“Mingyan! I’m controlling my own body! Do whatever you want to do immediately!” after Huang Feiyan had actually taken control of her body, she had gotten rid of the state where as long as the phoenix wanted, she could directly take back control of the body.
Mingyan was stunned. He was still waiting for the phoenix to agree. But the opportunity could not be missed. Mingyan did not hesitate and immediately began to carve a formation pattern on Huang Feiyan’s forehead!
Huang Feiyan’s actions naturally woke up the phoenix. She was immediately furious and quickly wanted to take back control. But this was, after all, Huang Feiyan’s body. Even if it was exactly the same as the phoenix’s body from a million years ago, it was still a newborn body. So even if the blood in her body was the phoenix’s essence and blood, with Huang Feiyan’s obvious resistance, the phoenix really had no way to instantly take back the initiative of her own body.
And Mingyan’s movements were swift. He had experience once, so this time, carving the slave mark was even smoother.
And as Mingyan drew stroke by stroke, and the slave mark gradually took shape, Huang Feiyan’s beautiful face also became distorted. The phoenix and she were fighting for control of her body. This feeling of being gradually stripped away was extremely uncomfortable. Huang Feiyan was still no match for the phoenix and was gradually losing ground…
“Mingyan… hurry… hurry up…” Huang Feiyan was about to be unable to hold on. She gritted her teeth and pleaded.
Mingyan’s heart ached, but he did not dare to be distracted and continued to carve the slave mark.
“You…?! You dare to carve a slave mark on me?! Are you looking for death?!” the phoenix finally discovered Mingyan’s actions. She briefly took control of her body and began to resist violently. Perhaps for other formation patterns, she was not so familiar. But for the slave mark, she was too familiar. She was both shocked and angry. How could this disgusting formation pattern still exist in the world?!
With her resistance, Mingyan was directly shaken to the point that his mouth felt sweet, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. But Mingyan quickly suppressed it and continued to carve the slave mark. He believed that Huang Feiyan could still take back control of her body.
Sure enough, not long after, Huang Feiyan took back control of her body.
“…You still have a way, she’s about to die of anger!” Huang Feiyan was ecstatic. She and Mingyan were already Dao companions. Even if she became Mingyan’s slave, it didn’t matter. But at that time, the phoenix would be disgusted to death. Huang Feiyan could feel the phoenix’s disgust and fear of the slave mark. “She’s afraid!”
The phoenix is afraid? Could it be that the slave mark also worked on her? Mingyan’s heart was greatly settled. He swallowed the fresh blood in his mouth, his face calm, and continued to carve the slave mark.
The phoenix was about to go crazy. She, as a Supreme Dao Great Emperor, was about to become someone else’s slave. The frantic phoenix brought great harm to Huang Feiyan. Under the crazy struggle of the two personalities, Huang Feiyan’s personality became weaker and weaker.
Mingyan saw it in his eyes, and his heart ached, but he could not stop and continued to carve the slave mark.
Finally… Mingyan carved the last stroke of the slave mark, and Huang Feiyan fell limply to the ground…
Mingyan quickly picked her up. And in that instant, Huang Feiyan also opened her eyes. Her eyes were filled with resentment and a strong killing intent. “You… how dare you…?!”
A small formation pattern appeared on her forehead. It was very beautiful and delicate. At this moment, it was working. The thoughts in the phoenix’s heart were completely known by Mingyan…
He learned a piece of news…
His Huang Feiyan, in order to hold on until he had finished drawing the formation pattern, had been made weak by the phoenix and had to fall into a deep sleep. But fortunately, there was no danger to her life…
Only then did Mingyan sigh in relief… but what followed was a towering rage…
