53.
When Chu Ming heard this, he was shocked. He looked at Jin and asked doubtfully, ”Brother Zi You, are you admitting your wrongs?”
Zi You nodded and said, ”It can't be wrong!”
Now that Jin's identity had been exposed, he felt a sense of majesty, as if Chu Ming was about to bow down to his claws. He raised his head and stuck out his chest, looking extremely mighty.
Zi You continued, ”Can you let it flap its golden wings a few times? Can it also let me see the spirit of a divine beast?”
Chu Ming nodded his head and rubbed Gold's head, then he said, ”Swing your golden wings a bit and let Brother Zi You take a look.”
Jin Gugu shouted a few times, and with a flutter of her wings, several rays of golden light shot out in all directions, causing the surroundings to become much brighter.
Zi You's jaw dropped. He had never been this shocked before.
Gold flapped his wings a few times and then stopped, croaking as if announcing the end of his show.
Chu Ming rubbed Jin Jin's head and said with a smile, ”You little bird, you're still pretending.”
Hearing this, Jin seemed to disdain it greatly. He patted Chu Ming's head with his wings.
Zi You came back to his senses and asked Chu Ming, ”Where did you get this bird?”
Chu Ming said, ”Six years ago, I fell into the Phoenix Abyss and saw it under the Fallen Phoenix Abyss.”
Zi You was surprised again, and said: ”Fallen Phoenix Abyss? ”Is it that bottomless abyss not far away from the Azure Province?”
Chu Ming laughed, ”It's that abyss, but it's impossible to say for sure.”
Zi You sighed and said, ”Brother Chu Ming sure is blessed. He fell into the Phoenix Abyss and didn't die. To think that he was even able to obtain this ancient divine beast from the depths of the abyss. It seems this is heaven's will.”
Chu Ming questioned, ”This bird has only been out of the egg shell six years ago, how could it be an ancient mythical beast?”
Zi You said, ”Brother Chu Ming, you should know that thousands of years ago, this bird was born with the blessing of all the gods. Therefore, this bird is an immortal bird that only lives once every hundred years, and once it enters the shell, it will gain the power to reincarnate. It's just like we've always said.”
Chu Ming was greatly surprised and asked, ”Do you believe in ghosts and gods?”
Zi You laughed. ”There are many things that I can't explain clearly. Whether it's a god or not, Zi You really can't tell, but the Wall of Gods is a proof. As for ghosts, Zi You did see a lot of new things while traveling around the world.
”Oh?” Chu Ming's interest was piqued and he asked, ”Has Brother Zi You seen a ghost before?”
Zi You looked up at the sky and sighed. ”That was a long time ago. Let's not talk about it.”
Chu Ming saw that Zi You also seemed to have something on his mind, so he didn't ask anymore.
Zi You regained his senses and continued to talk about Jin, saying: ”Brother Chu Ming is so lucky! ”However, this bird is a priceless treasure. You must protect it well.”
”Of course.” Chu Ming looked at the golden peng and laughed. ”But apart from its light and change in size, this Golden-Winged Kun Peng is already quite ordinary. It's not like it's going to have any combat prowess.”
Hearing this, Jin didn't seem to be satisfied. He flapped his wings as if he wanted to compete with Chu Ming.
Zi You smiled and said, ”Yes and no. Every time this bird grows, it changes a lot. Also, from the < Ancient Seven Stories >, it is said that this bird will become …” Before he could finish, Jin pounced on him.
Seeing this, Zi You backed up a few steps and dodged Jin's attack. He smiled and said, ”Forget it, Zi You shouldn't explain too much. Otherwise, this bird will be risking its life to deal with Zi You.” ”Hahaha!”
Gold flew back to Chu Ming's shoulder in anger.
This was the first time Chu Ming saw Jin Tian so angry. He couldn't help but ask, ”Little bird, you've been angry recently. Is there any secret you can't tell us?”
The gold cawed a few times and pecked Chu Ming on the head. Then, it flew up and hovered in the air.
