Chapter 1567: Little Vermilion Bird (1)

Shen Yanxiao was from the Longxuan Empire back then, but the Emperor made things difficult for her because of her ident.i.ty as a Warlock. Not only did he hand over the Sun Never Sets, a city that was the most difficult to handle, but he also cut off all a.s.sistance from the Longxuan Empire. All of this was a huge mistake.

If the Emperor did not treat Shen Yanxiao so harshly back then, then Shen Yanxiao would have never left the Longxuan Empire.

Alas, I am getting old. After realizing that he had failed to recognize such a promising young lady, the Emperor could not help but sigh.

Shen Yanxiao and Lan Fengli left the capital but not the Longxuan Empire.

Xiu gathered around Shen Yanxiao, and so did Taotie. As they hurried along, Taotie happily ate the meat buns Shen Yanxiao had bought for him from the capital.

Shen Yanxiao hired a carriage. After the Yazi transformed, it a.s.sumed the role of a carriage driver.

Inside the carriage, Taotie looked at Shen Yanxiao who was hugging the little Vermilion Bird as he ate his steamed bun.

Master, where are we going now? Taotie blinked. This did not seem to be the way back to the Forsaken Land.

Shen Yanxiao caressed the sleeping Vermilion Bird and said, We are going to Vermilion Birds home.

Vermilion Birds home? Taotie was puzzled.

Vermilion Bird is still very weak. We need to bring it back to its original place and have Xiu help it absorb the fire elements there so that it can wake up. Shen Yanxiao was unaccustomed to the absence of Vermilion Birds nagging. Even though she knew that Vermilion Bird was still alive, she felt awful when she saw him in his current state.

Fortunately, Xiu told her that Vermilion Bird and Little Phoenix could return to their former residence and absorb fire elements to help them regain consciousness. Only then, did Shen Yanxiao breathe a sigh of relief.

This time, she came to the Longxuan Empire not only to extort the Emperor, but to bring Vermilion Bird to the Lava Valley.

On the other side, the Phoenix couple had also brought the little Phoenix back to Mount Kuluo.

Then, will Vermilion Bird wake up when we get there? Looking at Vermilion Birds current appearance, Taotie felt that the steamed bun in his hand was not as delicious.

Shen Yanxiao looked at Xiu.

Xiu slowly nodded. Yes.

The journey to the Lava Valley was long and the most active one in the carriage was Taotie. However, as an experienced foodie, he had devoted most of his time to eating.

Xiu was an iceberg, and so was Lan Fengli. Moreover, Shen Yanxiao was worried about Vermilion Bird along the way, so she did not say much.

The carriage finally arrived at the Lava Valley. Ordinary carriages would easily spontaneously combust upon entering the Lava Valley, so they all alighted the carriage and walked.

It had been a long time since she returned to the Lava Valley. Shen Yanxiao still remembered how she felt the first time she came here.

At that time, she never thought that she would have anything to do with the Vermilion Bird Familys guardian beast.

Xiu walked by Shen Yanxiaos side. From the moment he got down from the carriage, he used his strength to surround them so that the high temperature would not disturb them.

When they arrived at the Lava Cave, Shen Yanxiao took a deep breath and carried Vermilion Bird inside.

The cave was still pitch-black as usual, with only some firesource stones flickering with light. Shen Yanxiao carried Vermilion Bird to the center of the cave and handed the rest to Xiu.

Xiu stood by Vermilion Birds side and looked at Vermilion Bird who was curled up into a ball and asleep. Xiu slowly raised his hand and a faint white light surrounded Vermilion Bird.
