Dong Lei was even more nervous, trembling all over. He crawled forward two steps, grabbed the hem of Gu Changsheng's skirt, and said, "Lady Changsheng, the Phoenix Divine Bird is a spiritual object that descends from the heavens as an auspicious sign. Disrespectful words alone are a blasphemy against the spirits, let alone killing it!"
"Lady Changsheng, my mother says that when it comes to ghosts and deities, it's better to believe they exist than not. The phoenix must not be killed at all costs!"
Ning Er beside him was also extremely tense.
She had gone to great lengths to bring these two phoenixes from the County Prince's Mansion, not for Lady Changsheng to feast on. What was she to do now?
Suddenly, she remembered the worried look on Yuan Bao's face when she had asked for the phoenixes.
Indeed, Yuan Bao's concerns were valid. Lady Changsheng was someone who didn't always play by the rules!
