Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess-Chapter 580: Feng Binglu Left

Mostly everyone in the village had witnessed Tan Bingyu transformed into a pale blue, almost feathered Ice phoenix. The sound of the phoenix cry resounds in the whole village and everyone stares at the source of it. The beautiful monstrous bird was flying in the sky destroying all falling fall and even saving the village. Normally one would be shocked or terrified by the scene of a human turning into a divine beast, but this bird is Tan Bingyu and she is currently saving their village.

To be scared of her because of the sudden change in appearance is simply rude. She is currently their savior, after all. They were watching as most of the hail disappeared the moment the ice phoenix made her move. All of the sudden a villager approached the village chief to report the progress on the defensive array they are working on.

The villager said, "Chief Xue, the defensive array can be activated now!"

The village chief nodded her head but didn’t order the activation of the array first and shouted at Tan Bingyu who was blocking the hailstorm falling onto them.

"Bing’er! Come back!!" Chief Xue shouted.

The almost white feathered heard her shout and made the last move to destroy the falling hail before diving down to the ground. The moment the village chief saw that she had entered the village, she issued the activation of the Defensive Array.

Village Chief Xue ordered, "Activate the array!!"

As the array was activated a thinker barrier protected the whole village and it blocked the falling hail to this place. This barrier is thicker and more powerful than the former formation the village uses to protect their home. Moreover, there is no need to keep it activated by them passing their qi to the formation core. At the center of this array, a high-grade spirit stone was placed. It started to glow and float above the center of the array as it got activated and used as the source of power for this defensive array.

Others looked at the almost white phoenix that landed near Xue Renxue and Tan Bingyu returned to her human form. She looks a bit pale as this transformation took most of her qi. She almost fell but was caught by her dao companion.

"Bing’er, how are you feeling?" Xue Renxue noticed that overused the qi state of his beloved and passed some of his qi to her and helped her stabilize her state.

Baimei said, {She overused her qi.}

Tan Bingyu felt fatigue all over her that she couldn’t stand. She can only be carried in a princess style by Xue Renxue and bring her closer to their ancestor and ask her state.

"Ancestor! How’s Bing’er? She suddenly transformed and now looks so tired!" Xue Renxue said with urgency. Clearly, one can feel the worry in his tone.

Feng Bingrui had witnessed the scene of Tan Bingyu turning to her phoenix form. He was surprised that this child had transformed faster than Xue Renxue who had a purer Phoenix bloodline. Moreover, he had witnessed the cause of her transformation. It was because her dao companion was in danger that her phoenix bloodline suddenly flared and she was able to push the limits of her vessel to awaken as a Phoenix.

{Don’t worry. She failed to control her qi during the transformation making her overused. She just needs to rest. She is alright.}

Xue Renxue sighs in relief as he cradles his beloved in his arms. It was unknown when Tan Bingyu had fallen asleep, her rhythmical breathing shows that she is just sleeping. Even Baimei looked at her before laying down beside Xue Renxue.

The villagers wanted to ask what they were. They just had to witness a human suddenly turning into a mythical creature which they had never seen before. There are lots of questions but under the stern gaze of the village chief they do not dare open their mouths.

Village Chief Xue said, "Go check the array and have one to keep watching over all the time. The others begin the repairs in the villages and the rest of you take a break and shift duties with others every three hours."

"Yes, Village Chief!" The villagers collectively said as they left after taking one last glance with Tan Bingyu.

Once the villagers had left, Village Chief Xue only looked at Xue Renxue who was hugging Tan Bingyu and gave a defensive feeling towards her. No, not only towards her but to everyone in this village. He must have noticed the eyes that lingered on Tan Bingyu after she had transformed into a bird and saved them all.

Village Chief Xue said, "Chief, meant no harm. No one in this village is foolish enough to harm the one who had protected them. This I assure you."

"Those words only work on you. As for the rest of the villagers, I do not think so. I felt an unknown malice within the crowd. Unless the owner of those eyes aren’t eliminated, it’s impossible for us to completely trust you," said Xue Renxue.

When Village Chief Xue met this young man’s eyes, his usual carefree attitude was nowhere to be found. There is also a change within the lad’s irises. It changed similarly to Tan Bingyu’s eyes when she was in her phoenix form. Seeing the tension between the two, Feng Bingrui couldn’t help but explain the situation to the female village chief.

{Xue’er, the phoenix race can see through lies, and emotions. Since he said that there is one with malice, then he is telling the truth. Before the eyes of a phoenix all falsehood shall be exposed.}

Village Chief Xue looked stunned and asked, "Phoenix?! You are not talking about those legendary divine beasts, the Phoenix Race."

{Yes. I am also one. I am currently in my Regressed State. Once I hatch, I will show you my true form.}

It was unknown when did these two ancestors had gotten this close that their Phoenix Ancestor can even exposed his race to a human like the village chief. Seeing that the village chief showed no fear upon learning that her lover is a phoenix, their descendants felt a bit more relaxed now knowing that the future hasn’t changed that much.

Meanwhile in space beyond the blue sky.

The Phoenix Prince named Feng Binglu had witnessed the transformation of Tan Bingyu. He actually couldn’t see the whole situation in that village. But when Tan Bingyu transformed, he felt that this young phoenix’s bloodline had something to do with their tribe. To be precise her bloodline seems to come from his second brother whom he thought was healing in this world. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"A young phoenix with our tribe’s bloodline. Seeing its purity and affinity with my bloodline, she is a descendant of my brothers."

"I’ve felt the second brother’s aura in this star. Now I can feel it from this young phoenix."

"Did I sense it wrong? The familiar aura I sensed before. It wasn’t because the second brother is here but... his descendant is here? This is possible but... Why do I feel something is wrong?"

Feng Binglu spread his divine consciousness and Feng Bingrui had longed to hide his aura. The only phoenix descendant he can feel comes from two young hatchlings who couldn’t even completely transform. However, like he had said before, he can truly sense his second brother to these two hatchlings and suddenly grinned.

Even the Phoenix race had taboos, and mixing their bloodlines with another race, especially the human race is forbidden. Now he saw two hatchlings with mixed bloodline of a human and a phoenix meaning that a phoenix from his tribe had done the taboo which can only be punished with exilement. That’s why Feng Binglu was exhalarated.

With this newly acquired news, even if he fails to kill his second brother, he can drag him down and make sure that the tribe will kick him out of the family. After all, he had broken a taboo and that itself is a sin the phoenix race can’t easily pardoned.

"Hahaha~ Second Brother, you broke the taboo of our tribe! This is good. Now I don’t even need to kill you and just need to report to the tribe and have them remove your name as candidate to the crown."

"It’s better to go back. There is no need to check if the second brother is alive. Just this discovery alone can drag him down."

Lingering Ice Phoenix in the space flew away while laughing. Feng Bingrui, who noticed that the familiar presence was gone , stared at the horizon with cold eyes. He can guess what had run to his third brother’s head and why he suddenly left. Adding the fact that his state is not capable of stopping the person, he no longer cares whether the tribe will exile him or not.

Feng Bingrui the moment he accepted Xue Lira’s affection had decided to build a family with her and no longer cared about that tribe who was full of restrictions. The moment Feng Binglu left the strange hailstorm had returned to normal and under the protection of the advance defensive array the village had enjoyed a peaceful time during the hailstorm.
