1759 Win or Lose

　　Chu Liuyue was stunned. What… is going on?

　　Zi Chen seemed to be very surprised as well. A hint of surprise flashed in the depths of his usually deep and indifferent eyes.

　　Miao Zhen glanced over. He was stunned for a moment, then laughed. “I almost forgot about that… The two wing bones of this skeleton have fused into your body. Although they’ve been separated, they’re still connected to each other. Therefore, when the power on this skeleton began to increase, even the aura with your wing bones increased.”

　　Chu Liuyue blinked. I seem to understand…

　　“In that case, if the power contained in the skeleton continues to increase, Zi Chen’s strength will also rise?”

　　Miao Zhen nodded. “In theory, that’s indeed the case. However, these wing bones no longer belong to this skeleton after all. The increase in strength should be limited.”

　　Chu Liuyue gasped. I actually guessed correctly! If that is the case, Zi Chen can be said to have picked up a huge bargain! So what if the increase is limited? It will still increase in the end! Besides, this skeleton will be Miao Zhen’s in the future. He is a great phoenix dragon, the kind with top talent and strength!

　　Being able to bask in the glory was something that many people couldn’t ask for. Now, Zi Chen had actually encountered it just like that! How could this not be exciting!?

　　Chu Liuyue glanced at Zi Chen and saw a ripple in his eyes.

　　Zi Chen naturally knew how rich and shocking a pleasant surprise this was for him!

　　Previously, he had rejected Miao Zhen’s proposal because he had his own persistence and principles. However, even he had to admit that it was indeed a huge loss for him to reject it.

　　Although he didn’t regret his decision, he still wondered how it would have been. Unexpectedly, he was connected to Miao Zhen again because of these wing bones!

　　According to Miao Zhen, not only did he maintain his identity and bloodline, but he also had another shortcut to become stronger!

　　As long as Miao Zhen became stronger, he would be affected, and his strength would increase! Was there anything more satisfying than this in the world?

　　“I’ll say that you and I are fated…” Miao Zhen sighed. There is probably no other such thing in the world. Even if you don’t want the opportunity bestowed by the heavens, it will still fall into your hands through various methods in the end!

　　Shocked, Chu Liuyue didn’t say anything for a long time.

　　Suddenly, Tuan Zi tugged at her sleeve.

　　Chu Liuyue looked down at her. “What’s wrong, Tuan Zi?”

　　Tuan Zi bit her hand in a dilemma and gazed at Zi Chen before looking at Chu Liuyue. “A’Yue, is what you said just now true?”

　　Chu Liuyue couldn’t help but smile and gently pinch her chubby face. “Senior Miao Zhen said it himself. It’s naturally true.”

　　Moreover, Zi Chen was her contracted legendary fiend. She was the one who could sense the changes in Zi Chen the most.

　　This matter was a foregone conclusion!

　　Tuan Zi couldn’t help but frown with a worried expression. After a long while, she said, “Then… Then… Then, won’t Zi Chen be stronger than me in the future?”

　　She screwed up her little face and looked genuinely worried.

　　Chu Liuyue almost couldn’t hold back her laughter. “So that’s what you were thinking about just now?”

　　“That’s right!” Tuan Zi pouted.

　　In the past, she couldn’t defeat Zi Chen. It wasn’t until she broke through to become a red-gold heavenly phoenix that she finally managed to turn the tables. Be it bloodline or strength, they were higher than Zi Chen.

　　But now, Zi Chen’s body had fused with the great phoenix dragon’s bloodline power, and he had even joined forces with Miao Zhen because of this! In the future, with Miao Zhen’s support, it was obvious that Zi Chen’s strength would definitely advance by leaps and bounds!

　　Wouldn’t she have no advantage at all?

　　Looking at her angry expression, Chu Liuyue couldn’t help but laugh.

　　I had almost forgotten that the relationship between Tuan Zi and Zi Chen has indeed never been good. Apart from the critical moment of fighting the enemy together, the two of them basically don’t communicate much.

　　Of course, it is usually Tuan Zi who chatters and clamors for a fight, while Zi Chen ignores her. If he was really annoyed by Tuan Zi’s argument, he would make a clean move. But that isn’t often.

　　Now, Tuan Zi and Zi Chen are almost evenly matched. If they really fight, it is really hard to say who will win.

　　“Actually, this question is very simple. If Zi Chen becomes stronger, won’t you also increase your strength?” said Chu Liuyue with a smile. “Anyway, you’re so talented. It should be easy for you to do all this, right?”

　　When Tuan Zi heard this, she immediately felt that it made sense! That’s right! If Zi Chen becomes stronger, I just have to become stronger too! No matter what, I have to be the one A’Yue likes most!

　　“Yes! I can definitely win!”

　　Hearing this, Zi Chen glanced over.

　　Sensing his gaze, Tuan Zi clenched her fists and raised her face, looking like she was waiting to fight at any moment.

　　Zi Chen’s eyes flickered. Then, without saying anything, he turned his head away and closed his eyes.

　　His aura rose again!

　　Tuan Zi gritted her teeth in anger. Become stronger? Who doesn’t know how to do it? When I get out of here, I will definitely find Zi Chen and fight him!

　　…

　　Time passed silently.

　　The flames on the skeleton gradually subsided. Wherever the flames dissipated, it had already become as clear and moist as jade.

　　Faintly, transparent liquid could be seen flowing slowly inside. That was Miao Zhen’s bloodline power hidden in the blood pearl!

　　When the last cluster of golden flames disappeared, Rong Xiu looked up. “Senior Miao Zhen, please—”
