"How am I strange? I vanished the pain from your wrists," Licheng said as his hold remained intact on her hands.
"That is what is strange about you. You care, but you show it at a random time," Xiana said and slowly pulled her hands back.
"You are a wonderful sorcerer. I would love to learn a few magic tricks from you," Xiana said with a smile.
"It's not sorcery. It is called healing," Licheng corrected her.
"Healing with magic as sorcerers do," Xiana muttered.
"Cultivators do the healing. By learning about your inner energy," Licheng pronounced. "Do you think I wasted my seven years in a secluded place for nothing? I learned and grew up as a cultivator. It is what you have to learn too. The demon is powerful and to free the bird in the sky, I need to win this time," Licheng stated and furrowed his brows together.
"You mean the phoenix?" Xiana asked to confirm.
