Chapter 1414: City of Elves (1)
Shen Yanxiao only had to keep watch in the dungeon until the evening. When Taotie learned that Shen Yanxiao was leaving, he was so sad that he forgot to eat. He looked at his “feeder” with tears in his eyes. His expression was filled with despair as if he was parting ways with his biological parents.
That gaze made Shen Yanxiao’s heart ache.
“I’ll come back tomorrow morning. Don’t let other elves discover our relations.h.i.+p. I’ll bring you food tomorrow.” Shen Yanxiao patted Taotie’s head.
When he heard that Shen Yanxiao would come again tomorrow and bring him food, Taotie’s tears finally turned into a smile. He stretched out his tender white hands and shyly pulled on the corner of Shen Yanxiao’s clothes. “Then… then you must come tomorrow. Don’t lie to me.”
Shen Yanxiao nodded with a smile and left the dungeon.
Taotie quickly finished the last few demonic cores and slowly transformed into his beast form.
The tender little boy was immediately replaced by that savage beast, but his pair of scarlet eyes still stared at Shen Yanxiao cutely.
An Ran appeared at the entrance of the dungeon on time. He looked at Shen Yanxiao with a cautious expression and sized her up. After ensuring that she was unharmed, he finally relaxed.
“Is Taotie still stable?” An Ran asked.
Shen Yanxiao smiled and said. “It’s very stable. I don’t think it will go berserk all day long, rest a.s.sured.”
With her feeding him, Taotie would probably obediently stay in the dungeon for a long time without causing any trouble.
However, Shen Yanxiao still had to stay in Moons.h.i.+ne City for several months. The stock she had in her interspatial ring was probably insufficient to satisfy the glutton, Taotie. Thus, sShe still had to think of ways to get more edible food.
“Good. Go back and rest, and leave this to me,” An Ran smiled and said.
Shen Yanxiao nodded and turned to look at the motionless Taotie before she left the dungeon.
The moment Shen Yanxiao left, Taotie released a heavy sigh.
The shockwave brought about by the beast’s sigh brushed against An Ran’s clothes. An Ran nervously looked at the beast imprisoned in the cage, fearing that it would suddenly explode.
However, after a sigh, Taotie did not move again. He did not even bother to look at An Ran as he rested his huge head on his two front claws as he closed his eyes to sleep.
He had just eaten something, and he had to conserve his strength. He did not want to waste his energy to look at the ugly elf.
Shen Yanxiao left the dungeon and returned to her room. She quickly washed up and changed into clean clothes.
The moment night fell was a thief’s favorite time.
Shen Yanxiao took advantage of the night and walked around Moons.h.i.+ne City.
There were no shops in Moons.h.i.+ne City, nor were there any ordinary elves. Every elf here served the Tree of Life, and the huge Moons.h.i.+ne City seemed exceptionally quiet under the moonlight.
Shen Yanxiao did not look for Duan Xue directly. Instead, she walked towards Mo Yu’s residence.
Mo Yu had worked hard for an entire day. Just as he was prepared to lie down and rest, he welcomed Shen Yanxiao, this little customer.
The moment he saw Shen Yanxiao, Mo Yu immediately stood up with a smile and eagerly pulled out a chair for Shen Yanxiao to sit on.
“How is it? How do you feel after staying with Taotie for a day?” Mo Yu was extremely curious about Shen Yanxiao’s current thoughts.
