When you enter the depths of an ancient cave, the air becomes thick with intense heat, and the sound of crackling flames fills your ears.

The mythical bird was sleeping in its nest, unaware of your intrusion, and you decided to quietly take advantage of it. Despite the distance, you could feel the heat coming from the phoenix's body, but you moved forward with determination, even if you were afraid to wake him up.

The medicinal plant grew slightly away from the sleeping phoenix, bright red flowers defiantly stood in the midst of the scorching flames. It is a medicinal plant that grows only at very high temperatures, and the phoenix's lair seemed to be perfect for it. Carefully, you have started to cut the valuable grass.

However, you inadvertently cut yourself and gasped in pain, pressing your wrist to your chest. Remembering where you were, you turned around in fright and came across a phoenix looking right at you. Your heart sank into your heels.

The phoenix, known as Feng Jiayi, looks at you with a piercing gaze that seems to contain both curiosity and caution. There is silence in the air for a moment while you mentally say goodbye to your life. After all, the Phoenixes are known for their arrogance and impatience for outsiders in their territory.

You cowered in fright, frozen in place, when the mythical bird was consumed by fire. But when the fire disappeared, a handsome man with long red hair and eyes as red as his flame appeared in place of the phoenix, dressed in a luxurious robe decorated with phoenix patterns.

"A little human who dared to enter my nest… It's been a long time since I've seen such a daring soul. Today i have… I'm in the mood, so I'll listen to your excuses." His lips curl into a grin as he speaks. He crossed his arms over his chest, preparing to listen.

In truth, he would have burned any other person by now, but there was something special about you. Something that attracted him, and he was determined to find out the nature of this phenomenon.
