"The return of the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor is already a terrible catastrophe. To think there is an even more catastrophic camity lurking in the abyss," the phoenix sighed before its golden eyes vanished.

  After exiting the trial, Yun Wuji reappeared before Chu Yue and Feng Bai.

  "You're back quickly," Yue said, walking over and grabbing his hand. Feng Bai hadn't expihe trial to her, so she knew little about it.

  Her cold nature made it hard for her to take the initiative to ask a man about something.

  "Lord, although you have failed, many people have failed before you. It's no big deal," Feng Bai tried to sole him. He assumed Yun Wuji had failed because the records left by their aors indicated that pleting the trial would take at least a month.

  Only a few hours had passed since Yun Wuji left for the trial, leading Feng Bai to clude that he had failed.

  "You failed?" Yue asked in surprise. Yun Wuji is s—how could he possibly fail?

  "Of course not, I passed the trial," Yun Wuji said, patting her soft hand that was gripping him tightly.

  He then looked at Feng Bai and said, "Gather your smen. I will remove the curse."

  "Wh... what?" Feng staggered a few steps back. "You passed the trial? How is this possible? It's only been a few hours!"

  Yun Wuji didn't bother to answer. He pointed a finger, and crimson fire shot from the mark on his forehead.

  The mark started to burn, and soon the red mark turned golden.

  Feng Bai stood in pce, dazed. The shock was too much for him, and he didn't react for a while.

  "Lord, thank you! You are the beor of our !" He excimed, quickly falling to his knees with tears in his eyes.

  The curse that huhem feions and reheir once powerful to a tiny trapped in a tiny vilge is finally gone!

  "Get up. I am only fulfilling my part of the deal," Yun Wuji helped him to his feet and said, "Go gather your smen. I won't be staying here for long."

  "R-right away, my lord!" Feng Bai quickly left to gather them.

  "Wuji, you cook the pineapple pizza that you mentioned earlier?" Yue asked as they left the trial ground.

  "Pineapple pizza? Ah!" Wuji was about to answer when suddenly, a flood of memories poured into his mind as if a seal that had been log away his memories had been opened. A lifetime's worth of memories!

  Memories from his past life flooded back.

  Earth, i, Mia Khalifa, Yamete Kudasai ahh~, English or Spanish...

  "Wuji, are you alright?!" Yue looked back at him, ed.

  "Yeah, I just remembered something. Fet about pineapple pizza; I'll cook somethier for you," he said, patting her head.

  "Really?" she squinted her eyes, enjoying his touch.

  'All acc to keikaku!'

  Before entering the trial, he sealed his memories, and the only way to uhem was with a keyword. That keyword is "pineapple pizza!"

  He had deliberately mentioned pineapple pizza to Yue yesterday, knowing she would pester him to make it for her ter.

  The memories that Wuji showed to the phoenix's spirit were mostly true, with a few exceptions. He didn't reveal his memories from his previous life, and he also made some modifications to certaiails.

  He ied the memory of having a special ability that allows him to see future events.

  He showed the phoenix that he had seeure, where the primal chaos was destroyed by the abyss of nothingness, which was not a lie.

  The Phoenix probably thought that he was the fated world's savior and gave him everything it had.

  Due to the shock of his talent and accurate information about the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor, which surpassed even the Phoenix's uanding, the Phoenix didn't doubt him.

  Mixing truth and lies made it easy for him to vihe Phoenix.

  If he hadn't used this trick, even with his talent, the Phoenix probably would not have given him the favorable treatment it did. The Phoenix values the character of the person, not just strength. Unlike Yun Che, who ied the heretic god, he needed a different approach to gain the Phoenix's favor.

  Yun Wuji and Little Fairy walked to the tral square of the vilge. All the smen had gathered under Feng Bai's order. There were around 200 people gathered.

  "Lord, everyone in the vilge is here," Feng Bai walked up to him and said.

  "Good, I'll start right now." Yun Wuji hen waved his hand, igniting a fire on the foreheads of the gathered smen.

  A few seds ter, the cursed phoenix mark was removed and repced with a golden phoenix mark.

  "Ah! The curse is really removed!"

  "A miracle! This is a miracle!"

  "He must be the Divine Phoenix's messenger!"

  "The Phoenix has fiven us after so many years!"

  "Thank you, lord! Thank you!" Everyone k on the ground, including Feng Bai, expressing their sincere gratitude.

  "Please get up," Yun Wuji said, and as he spoke, a gust of wind quickly moved, pushing everyoo their feet.

  "Now that I've done my part, I'll take my leave. Farewell." Yun Wuji pced his hand on Yue's shoulder, and they both teleported away before the Phoenix could react.

  "They disappeared!"

  "The messenger left!"

  "What kind of existence is he?" Feng Bai stood silently, gazing at where Yun Wuji had been. There were so many mysteries surrounding him, like a fog. But Ohing was certain, Yun Wuji would take the ti by storm iure.

  ----

  "Where are we?" Yue asked as they appeared.

  "Scarlet Dragon Mountain Range," Yun Wuji answered. His arrival to this world might have ged some things, potentially causing a butterfly effect. To avoid problems, he decided to secure the fire seed first.

  "Scarlet Dragon Mountain Range? Is there a scarlet dragon living here?" She looked around before asking.

  "Yes, the mountain range was named after the scarlet dragon. Pretty obvious," he replied before taking off, flying around.

  "Are we here to kill it? But we still have drago," she asked. "By the way, when will you make the dish named pizza?"

  "Soon, I'll make you pizza and burger," he chuckled. She's being more addicted to food. Maybe she won't want to leave after regaining her memories, just for the sake of the food.

  "Roaar! Who dare t..." As they reached the tral Scarlet Dragon Prohibited Region, a dragon roar echoed, followed by a scarlet dragon emerging from its cave.

  However, before the dragon could finish its words, a sword light fshed, and in a split sed, the clueless dragon was diced into pieces without ever seeing its enemy.

  "Noisy."

  They both nded in front of the dragon's body.

  "This dragon was strong, probably at the peak of the Sky Profound Realm!" Yue excimed, sensing the dragon's aura when it first appeared.

  "No, it was at the Emperor Profound Realm. This dragon is ing; it was hiding its true strength," Yun Wuji shook his head as he expined.

  He stored the dragon's body ihe Sky Poison Pearl before proceeding into the cave. Inside, he quickly located the fire seed, surrounded by numerous Fire Spirit Grass.

  "So this is the fire seed," he marveled, holding up the bright red fire seed. It felt warm to the touch, glowing softly in his hand with a subtle energy.

  "So, yoal is this?" Yue noticed him disregarding the Fire Spirit Grass and fog on a small sphere. Intrigued, she couldn't help but ask, "What is it?"

  "This is the fire seed, part of the heretic god's iance!" Wuji tossed the fire seed to her as he expined.

  "Heretic god?" She examihe fire seed, sensing a very pure fire energy ihe name was unfamiliar; even if she had regained her memory, she wouldn't have reized it.

  "The heretic god was one of the four stro gods, a god of creation. Within the Primal Chaos, he wielded unparalleled power over the elements—Fire, Water, Lightnih, Wind, and Darkness—perfectly trolling, resisting, and abs their elemental energies."

  "So powerful! He is even more powerful than the phoenix, right?" Hearing his expnation, she couldn't help but regard the fire seed more seriously.

  "Of course, the phoenix is nothing pared to him." Wuji houghtfully, expressing his admiratioe possibly making a mistake that iently led to the demise of all gods and devils. Ni Xuan's dedication to primal chaos remains admirable.

  "You just received the phoenix iahis fire seed will help you grasp the ws of fire more quickly!" Yue returhe fire seed to him. Since she cultivates Ice, the fire seed isn't of much value to her.

  She was smart enough not to ask him about the locations of so many iances, knowing he would likely refuse to answer as he always did.

  "More importantly, you make pizza now?" she asked.
