Heavy Sweetness Ash-Like Frost (Ashes Of Love)

Chapter 1 ''The First Meeting In Shui Jing''

When we first meet Jin Mi, she is a grape sprite - not even an immortal yet. Her nickname is Xiao Tao Tao (Little Grape). She is trying to get out of the Shui Jing (water boundary) to go out of the Flower World, but she is not powerful enough to. Lao Hu (a carrot immortal) warns her that flower and fruit immortals like them are very rare and will surely be eaten in the dangerous world outside. The previous Flower Goddess had set up the boundary to protect weak flower and fruit immortals - as normal deity and demons will not have the power to enter the Flower World as well due to the boundary.

Lian Qiao another flower immortal who likes to collect things, excitedly shows Jin Mi a black thing she has found. Jin Mi recognises it as a crow. The crow is almost dead and Jin Mi decides to use it as fertiliser - so she buries it in her garden. In the middle of the night, Jin Mi suddenly wakes up and thinks that the crow cannot be an ordinary crow as it managed to cross the Shui Jing to enter the Flower World. So, she digs the crow out of the garden again and decides to eat it! As she believes the crow has a special internal essence which will improve her own internal essence!

She decides to resuscitate it before she eats it - so she feeds the crow her specially refined 500 year old honey. The crow is amazingly revived - and turns into a human form. Jin Mi is bedazzled for a moment by the crow's beauty. She looks at the crow's human form and tries to find out where the crow is hiding its internal essence - she sees the lower abdomen has a part that is soft and hard, and takes out a razor to cut it off to eat...

The crow in human form wakes up at that moment and shouts at her! Jin Mi is shameless and says she is his benefactor and was only cutting off what she thought was a tumour. The crow is slightly astounded at how Jin Mi does not know the difference between males and females and decides to forgive her since she lives in the "barbaric land" outside the heaven kingdom. With a few words, the crow changes Jin Mi \(she was in a human form \- which is only ten years old due to her lack of cultivation\) into her real form, and he laughs that she is a grape sprite. The crow makes Jin Mi his servant \- but it kind of backfires on him, she gives him earthworms for his breakfast, and when he wants to drink water, she brings him to her pond. He was enjoying the spring water till he realises that the spring is used for washing clothes!

The crow is insulted when he realises that Jin Mi thinks he is a crow. He changes into his real form - a phoenix and she is regretful that she did not get to eat his internal essence, as he is such a high grade god! Phoenix is going to return to his kingdom and Jin Mi asks to follow him out of the Flower World. Phoenix decides to bring her along.

Phoenix returns to the heavenly palace and everyone welcomes the return on the second Heavenly Prince. In Phoenix's courtyard, Jin Mi sees a furry creature and pinches its stomach \- because she wants to eat it!
