Chapter 54: Vermilion Birds Appear (3)
Shen Yanxiao looked at the strange scene inside the cave in surprise. Other than the calm and collected messengers of the God Realm, the other seven members of the Vermilion Bird Family were in chaos. Shen Jiayi and Shen Jiawei clung to the attendant as they let out a sorrowful cry while Shen Yifeng fanatically tried to avoid the gap under his feet. His previous elegant demeanor completely disappeared as his face turned deathly pale.
Vermilion Bird will wake up soon. Xiu's voice sounded from within Shen Yanxiao's mind.
The sound of cracks could be heard during the commotion as cracks began to appear on the Vermilion Bird egg that had been peacefully laid on top of the obsidian stone. After which, a dazzling red light shot out from the crack.
As a violent heat wave enveloped the entire cave, a fiery red light flooded everyone's line of sight.
No one else could see anything but the red color and panic spread in their minds.
Fortunately, the dazzling light faded after a while and slowly gathered on the obsidian stone.
In the blink of an eye, a flame lit up on the obsidian stone, then it burned.
A beautiful little hand was outstretched, and the flame looked like it was spiritual as it hastily fused together and covered that hand. It was as if a piece of flaming armor was mounted on that small arm.
As the flames gradually fused together, a boy no more than three or four years old appeared in front of them.
Deep red long hair flowed down his shoulders, and his refined features were like the most outstanding heavenly masterpieces. Even the most beautiful piece of art was only less than a tenth of the child's beautiful appearance.
The young yet beautiful face that would make everyone gasp in surprise had a pair of fiery red eyes that were like flames. It was as if the child had no innocence in his eyes, only a supreme existence.
The flame stuck to the boy's body like a flaming armor and accompanied him as he floated in the air.
Evidently, the boy was small in stature, yet he displayed an arrogant and arrogant demeanor as he floated above them. He sat cross-legged proudly, and he propped up his chin with one hand as he looked at the foolish humans below him with his red eyes ..
Shen Yifeng and the others were completely dumbfounded. They looked at that incredible little boy, and had correctly guessed his identity in their minds. However
They did not believe that the arrogant brat was the rumored Vermilion Bird!
Where is the promised mythical beast ?!
"Foolish man, do you know the consequences of disrupting my sleep?" A terrifying voice echoed from the boy. Although his voice sounded like a child, the temperature inside the cave instantly increased after he asked a question.
The sudden surge of heat tortured Shen Jiayi and Shen Jiawei until they had to pant. However, they were afraid that the heat would harm their bodies if they inhaled it, so they had no choice but to keep their mouths shut.
The little boy arrogantly glanced at everyone in the cave, and when he saw the beaming sage, he frowned.
"I hate your smile." With a wave of his small hand, a wave of fire similar to the tide headed towards the wise man.
A ray of golden light shot out from the wise man's hand and hit the incoming flames, and the collision produced a loud explosion.
"The Vermilion Bird is really as unruly as the rumors that are circulating. I am a sage from the Realm of Gods. " The wise man's soft voice was heard, and a loud rumble followed.
Chapter 55: How Am I Not a Woman? (1)
Vermillion Bird who was in the form of a small child snorted softly and drew his fire.
"I've been wondering who you are ever since you've been rude to me. It turns out that you are from the God Realm. After all these years, you guys haven't changed a bit, and I still hate you. " Although Vermilion Bird's words were sharp and direct, he did not attack anymore.
The sage confirmed their inner thoughts when the members of the Vermilion Bird Family heard him summon the child as the Vermilion Bird.
When they had reached a certain level, some magical beasts could turn into humans. Since mythical beasts were more powerful than ordinary magical beasts, it was simple enough for them to adopt a human form.
They looked at the boy excitedly when they knew that he was the transformation of the Vermillion Bird.
That is the hope of their family! It was their mythical beast!
"Master Vermilion Bird, I am the twelfth generation disciple of the Vermilion Bird Family! We must disturb the wise to disturb your sleep, and it is not a deliberate act to offend you. However, you have been asleep for a long time, and my family is looking forward to welcoming you back! " Shen Yifeng was the first to jump forward to worship the Vermilion Bird. Although his small physique shocked him, but he had also witnessed the Vermilion Bird's daring attack against the sage a moment ago. Rather than being angered by the attack, the wise man was being quite polite about it. It was obvious that the two of them knew each other. Shen Yifeng's mind was also mesmerized by the brief display of the Vermilion Bird's strength.
That fire element was the purest he had ever seen in his entire life!
There was no magical beast comparable to Vermilion Bird. He deserved to be a top rank mystical monster in the fire element.
Vermilion Bird stared at Shen Yifeng, who was kneeling in front of him, a cold glance. A smug smile was seen on his reddish lips.
Vermilion Bird did not hold back his words, and it shocked everyone.
Shen Yanxiao blinked. He laughed inwardly as he looked at the ‘mos’ beast that had appeared so conspicuously and also spoke so straightforwardly. It was clear that Shen Yifeng's flattery did not win Vermilion Bird's heart. How could a mythical creature that had lived for several thousand years not be able to surmise a devious plot devised by humans?
To welcome his return? Wasn't it just to sign a contract with him in order for them to gain a powerful strength?
Shen Yifeng was so stunned by the words of the Vermilion Bird that he could not think of his response. He could only cry silently in his heart.
It was one thing not to appear in its original form, but Vermilion Bird's human form even mocked his flattery in such an honest manner. That mythical beast is already outrageous!
Shen Yifeng only managed to gain his shattered confidence after a while, and then he said, "It is my luck if I am lucky enough to get the help of Lord Vermilion Bird. Lord Vermilion Bird, please give me a chance! "
Vermilion Bird's gaze swept across Shen Yifeng's excited face. His fiery brows fused together, and he snorted and said, "Go, you're not worthy."
Not worth it Not worth it
Those few words from the Vermilion Bird instantly turned the confident Shen Yifeng into a statue. In the blink of an eye, it was as if the confidence and pride of the number one prodigy of the Vermilion Bird Family had turned to dust.
Shen Yifeng looked at Vermilion Bird with a blank expression as he did not believe he would just deny it.
He was abandoned before he even had time to show off!
Chapter 56: How Am I Not a Woman? (2)
At that moment, Shen Yifeng suffered an unprecedented blow, and it was as if his eyes were losing their usual radiance.
Shen Yifeng's meeting with the Vermilion Bird made Shen Jiayi and Shen Jiawei happy. Initially, they only had bitterness towards their cousins. All these years, they had only ever felt resigned due to Shen Yifeng's dazzling achievements because they had no chance of standing out in the Vermilion Bird Family because Shen Yifeng's name had always covered them.
However, the Vermilion Bird rejected Shen Yifeng's attempt to lick him.
Doesn't that mean they have a chance to compete for the Vermilion Bird?
Shen Jiayi and Shen Jiawei did not hide their feelings of pleasure and joy because they were too happy with the unexpected news. At the same time, the two faithful twin brothers had separated from each other in an instant.
Back then, Shen Jiayi and Shen Jiawei were no longer siblings who worked together to defeat their enemies. They were rivals to compete for the Vermilion Bird, and no one could resist the temptation to obtain the power that came with that mythical beast.
"Jiawei, I am your older sister, so you must give me this chance." Shen Jiayi looked at her brother gloomily. After Shen Yifeng, he was the most powerful third generation disciple, and he had the highest chance of receiving Vermilion Bird's approval.
He would never allow anyone to fight him for the sake of the Vermilion Bird, not even his siblings.
Shen Jiawei gritted his teeth and looked at Shen Jiayi. For a long time, he had always obeyed Shen Jiayi's orders. Firstly, it was because Shen Jiayi was born a few minutes earlier than him and secondly, her strength was slightly stronger than him. However, that did not mean that he was a brainless idiot, and that was his best chance to prove himself. Since Shen Jiayi had been suppressing him for such a long time, how could she not want to change the situation?
Therefore, he decided to muster up his courage to fight against his sister for the first time in his life.
"Sister, you're a woman, and you should get married in the future. The Vermilion Bird Family needed a man to inherit it! " He's not ready to back down! He knew that the person who could get close to Vermilion Bird was the one who would most likely sign a contract with him in the present situation!
Shen Jiayi looked at her brother with a cold expression.
"Jiawei, you've become bolder, and you even dare to disobey me!"
As Shen Jiayi finished her sentence, a fireball shot towards Shen Jiawei. Completely unguarded against the attack, the fireball struck Shen Jiawei and threw him several meters back.
"Draud! How dare you compete against me? " Shen Jiayi glanced at Shen Jiawei who had fallen to the ground before she walked towards Vermilion Bird.
As she stood to one side, Shen Yanxiao was astonished by what the twins were doing to each other. He saw how ruthless Shen Jiayi was, and the fireball that threw Shen Jiawei behind was the same as the one he wanted to use against him. However, no matter how much Shen Jiayi hated him, she did not dare to make fireballs explode at him.
Although the fireball created by a rank five magician apprentice was not as strong as that released by a magus, it would still cause significant damage if it hit someone unguarded. Shen Jiayi seemed to have ignored their brother's relationship and sent an attack to Shen Jiawei. He had ignored everything that was considered important for him to obtain the Vermilion Bird!
When he saw Shen Jiawei fall to the ground miserably and desperately trying to get up, he felt nothing but pity for her because he had a cruel sister.
However
He also liked the scene where the two brats were fighting with each other!
