Chapter 257: Hongyans Blood-stained Hand
The phoenix bone issued an incomparable dazzling light with a wave of heat that engulfed Nangong Hongyan’s body. She was completely soaked as the bone slowly entered her blood and body. She looked just like a phoenix being reborn.
A phoenix would gain a new life after this process, and this was no different for Nangong Hongyan. After today, she would be able to embark on the path of cultivation. The beauty would no longer wither.
“Boom!” She pushed him away and ran to the side as if he was a terrible scourge. She only wanted to run as far away as possible and quickly made her way out of the Martial Tower.
Her mind was in disarray. Earlier, she wanted to kill him, but now, she has run away. In the end, she couldn’t bear to finish the deed and had to justify it in her mind: “He was lucky this time. I’ll spare him for now but will certainly take his life if we meet again. I definitely won’t let him live.”
She still couldn’t calm down and didn’t know why she decided to escape. Feng Feiyun should have been the one to run, but the opposite had happened.
The phoenix bone had fully fused with her body, making her skin emit a wondrous light. Praising it as a body made out of ice and jade wouldn’t be enough.
“Whoosh!” A faint strand of spirit energy hovered around her finger. She had actually opened her dantian, allowing her to now gestate spirituality and energy.
Adorned in her snow-white robe, she stood in the bamboo forest in a very proud fashion like an arrogant apricot flower. Her mind was full of thoughts; she needed to take a deep breath to calm down.
A second fiery cloud emerged around her body before she disappeared from sight again.

Xue Wu saw Nangong Hongyan return and came forward to ask: “Big Sis, is Feng Feiyun dead?”
“He... he will die sooner or later. He was lucky this time and managed to escape.” The flame around her body raged on while hovering in the sky with an oppressive aura. Her voice carried an inexplicable chill.
