The Eight Empresses Betrayed Me, Only to Deeply Regret It After Being Reborn-Chapter 39: She Likes Herself
Yue Hongling’s figure moved.
But then she stopped. She was still quite clear that Feng Wuxie couldn't possibly be limited to just this level of ability.
Sure enough, a change occurred.
Just as the divine race’s Cao Hong was about to grab Feng Wuxie by the neck, Feng Wuxie’s entire body transformed into flames.
The flames were intangible, and Cao Hong's hand passed right through them, grabbing nothing.
The flames took on an embracing form, wrapping around Cao Hong. A whirlwind rose, the wind fueling the fire, the golden-red flames transforming into a fire tornado that crazily burned Cao Hong.
"Get away!"
Cao Hong roared.
"Boom!"
A white light spread out, the fire tornado exploded, and flames filled the sky.
The flames suddenly condensed, reforming into a fire bird.
Cao Hong, his body scorched black, looked in pain. His eyes were filled with rage as he pointed at Feng Wuxie and shouted.
"Divine Lock!"
In an instant, white chains appeared around Feng Wuxie’s body. The chains were numerous, binding him completely without any chance of escape. Moreover, the chains carried a suppressive force.
Feng Wuxie cried out in pain, struggling with all his might.
But the white chains snapped and reformed, repeatedly locking and snapping again, no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn’t break free.
Cao Hong walked over and punched Feng Wuxie in the face.
Boom!
Cao Hong attacked again with a wide swing.
The first thing to do when trying to tame a mount with high intelligence is to strike fear into it. Only by deeply embedding the seed of fear and performing multiple obedience tests could the mount be successfully formed.
Yue Hongling watched this scene and shook her head lightly.
Clearly, during the earlier battle, Feng Wuxie had more powerful means at his disposal, yet he hadn’t used them.
Such a waste...
It didn’t matter. As long as she was strong, even if Feng Wuxie was a waste for now, it wouldn’t be a problem.
In her past life, wasn’t it her senior brother who was strong and she was weak?
She still lived happily.
Her figure descended from the sky, rushing toward Cao Hong.
Cao Hong suddenly looked up and saw Yue Hongling. A thought arose in his mind.
A beautiful woman, I don’t know her, she’s not friendly, can kill her!
A holy light appeared in his hand, the light twisting and condensing as he slapped it toward Yue Hongling.
"Fearless Seal!"
The Fearless Seal was not just one move, but a set of hand seals, containing eighty-one distinct seals, each with its unique effect.
As Yue Hongling grew stronger, the number of seals she could use increased, and her explosive power grew as well.
Boom!
A huge rumble sounded.
The white light orb was shattered by the seal, and with an unstoppable force, it slammed into Cao Hong’s face.
Boom!
Cao Hong’s large face exploded, and his body slid violently on the ground for several dozen meters, smashing a stone into pieces.
"Such a hard head," Yue Hongling praised, lifting the large seal and charging forward again.
"Why are you, a human, saving a demon?" Cao Hong roared. He pulled out a large shield and desperately withstood Yue Hongling’s repeated strikes.
Feng Wuxie looked at Yue Hongling’s back, his eyes turning red.
She came to save me.
Sure enough, she likes me!
She definitely likes me. Otherwise, how could she, a demon, be this strong while I’m so weak?
If she didn’t like me, why would she keep following me?
"Because I like you!" Yue Hongling answered as she sent Cao Hong flying again with a strike.
Cao Hong coughed up blood, fear appearing in his eyes.
She’s too strong, this woman is too strong.
What seemed like a small hand seal felt like the strike of a mountain when it hit.
"You're also trying to turn him into a mount, right? I’ll give him to you. We have no enmity, so let me go."

Feng Wuxie’s smile faltered slightly. A mount...
She wants to make me her mount?
Yue Hongling smiled lightly, without rebutting or saying a word.
She raised her seal and slammed it down again.
"You're crazy!"
Cao Hong roared, unable to comprehend what was wrong with this woman.
He spat out a mouthful of blood, his internal organs shattered.
If she came down with three more seals, his body would be crushed to pieces.
After dealing with Cao Hong, Yue Hongling turned to look at Feng Wuxie.
"Are you okay?"
Feng Wuxie had the word "mount" flashing through his mind. Was she trying to tame him as a mount?
"I'm... I'm fine."
"Then, if you're fine, I’ll be leaving now. Goodbye."
Yue Hongling turned to leave.
"Wait."
Feng Wuxie called out to her.
"Hmm?"
Feng Wuxie took a deep breath. He was feeling something was terribly off.
Because the strength Yue Hongling # Nоvеlight # had shown now, and her overwhelming fame, didn’t match the power she had displayed when they were together, fighting side by side.
This meant that the time they were being chased wasn’t by accident—it was Yue Hongling’s plan all along. She had deliberately been chased, and had deliberately encountered him.
"Why did you save me? What’s your real motive?" Feng Wuxie asked loudly.
There was no denying that he liked Yue Hongling now, and only when he liked her did he keep thinking that she liked him back.
Yue Hongling paused when she heard his question.
She stared straight into Feng Wuxie’s eyes, and in that moment, she saw the hope in his gaze.
He was waiting for her to say that she liked him.
Yue Hongling lightly furrowed her brows. She did like Feng Wuxie, but it didn’t feel like the right time to confirm anything.
The past fluttering in her heart wasn’t there.
Had it been there, she might have been willing to throw caution to the wind and go with him, no matter what.
But right now...
"Because I think you're fun."
Yue Hongling left behind those words and soared into the air.
You think I'm fun?
Feng Wuxie froze, what kind of answer was that?
But this "fun"...
Feng Wuxie slowly began to understand, his eyes widening. Fun... wasn’t that just the precursor to liking someone?
This extraordinary woman, who had truly developed feelings for him!
Feng Wuxie’s heart started beating rapidly, and his handsome face flushed, growing hot.
He pressed his hand to his chest.
A feeling began to take root in his heart.
"By the way, here’s something for you, contact me if you need anything."
Yue Hongling returned and threw Feng Wuxie a conch-shaped magical item.
"Speak into the conch, and I’ll hear you through another one."
After tossing it to him, she turned to leave again.
"Wait!"
Feng Wuxie stopped her again.
Yue Hongling raised an eyebrow.
"Hmm?"
"Can I come with you?" Feng Wuxie asked.
The Tianjiao Ancient Battlefield was just too dangerous, and since Yue Hongling was so strong, it would be great for him to stay with her. Even just using the treasures she didn’t need would be enough for him to continue his cultivation.
Yue Hongling frowned.
"No! The Tianjiao Ancient Battlefield is for training, not for you to sit back and relax. Goodbye!"
She decisively left.
Feng Wuxie...
Sit back and relax, so that’s what she thinks?
Feng Wuxie gritted his teeth. He would definitely train hard, so that the next time Yue Hongling saw him, she would open her eyes wide!
