Whoosh!

The Firebird spat out a mouthful of flames. Before the Martial Emperor could react, he had already been roasted and completely blackened. Both his insides and outer skin were completely charred.

"Aiyaya," the little Vermillion Bird stared at the man on the ground as she spoke with a hint of dissatisfaction, "You've gone overboard with the roasting. I prefer it done medium well! Remember, don't grill too much! It won't be tasty that way."

Her words were like a stroke of lightning on a clear day and sent everyone into a daze.

No one had ever thought that this adorable little lolita before them would be capable of saying such cruel things.

Medium well?

It feels as though the dinner she was about to have is the members of the Snow Jade Bandits?

This is too terrifying!

The Firebird nodded when it heard the little Vermillion Bird's command. It then turned its bloodthirsty and cruel gaze towards the rest of the Snow Jade Bandits.

At this moment, the Snow Jade Bandits no longer displayed their initially smug and arrogant demeanor. It was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on them and even their hearts were now frozen! Those who had received the Firebird's glare could not help but take a few steps back as their eyes filled with terror.

They were only bandits and they were not soldiers. When faced with such a frightening existence, their hearts would naturally ache to retreat.

"Bunch of useless things!"

The woman in red sneered. Her venomous eyes pierced through the fire spiritual beast and landed on Gu Ruoyun, "Miss, does this fire spiritual beast belong to you?"

"That's right."

Gu Ruoyun nodded as she calmly replied.

"Since that's the case, Miss, perhaps you could leave the Snow Jade Bandits with some dignity! I know that you're only a passerby so I can grant you a chance to leave. As for everything else, you need not trouble yourself, Miss. I'm only carrying a grudge towards the Cloudy Wind City!"

If the woman in red had said these words at the beginning, Gu Ruoyun would have just left immediately.

After all, she wasn't so kind-hearted that she would stick her head into other's troubles.

However...

After finding out about Wen Yan's Dragon Blood Fruit, she no longer plans on leaving without it!

Nothing was more important than recovering Xia Linyu's arm! Besides, the reason why she had made the journey to the Northern Block Territory was for the sake of obtaining these valuable herbs!

"My apologies," Gu Ruoyun shrugged her shoulders as she smiled faintly, "This little girl next to me is hungry so I have no choice but to trouble you all into becoming her dinner."

The little Vermillion Bird's eyes sparkled as she stared at the Snow Jade Bandits unblinkingly.

It was normal for spiritual beasts to consume humans just like how humans can eat spiritual beasts as well!

The laws of the jungle have always been the principle of this world!

However, the spiritual beasts on Gu Ruoyun's side have never done anything like this before! Still, just because they have not eaten humans before does not mean they do not like it. Now that the little Vermillion Bird has received Gu Ruoyun's permission, she was nearly drooling.

"Miss, don't be greedy!" the woman in red's expression sank. She then spoke with a malicious look on her face, "I'm giving you a chance yet you aren't willing to leave so don't blame me for my discourtesy in the end! Honestly, the spiritual beast by your side is very powerful indeed. It should be at the rank of a mid-level Martial Supreme at the very least! However, if we all truly join forces, the three of us won't lose! If you don't believe me, we can give it a try. You should know that if you were to lose, this spiritual beast would become another item in our bag. Even your life will end here!"

The woman in red glanced at the little Vermillion Bird as she spoke. She then smiled as she licked her red lips.

"As for this little girl, she's so delicate and delicious that I expect her to taste very good!"
