Chapter 985: Twilight City (3)
Shen Yanxiao frowned. Vermilion Bird fought against Taotie? Could it be that Vermilion Bird’s injury was caused by Taotie?
Vermilion Bird gritted his teeth and remained silent as he turned to look out the window.
Lan Fengli glanced at Shen Yanxiao.
“Xiao Feng doesn’t have a magical beast yet, right?” Shen Yanxiao did not want Vermilion Bird to recall those unhappy memories. Since he did not wish to talk about it, she would change the topic.
Lan Fengli nodded obediently.
Shen Yanxiao smiled and said, “I’ll find you a good magical beast in the future.”
Since Lan Fengli was terrifyingly powerful, Shen Yanxiao had the intention to find a mythical beast for him. Otherwise, with his strength, magical beasts of the Advanced-level would not have any value. Shen Yanxiao originally wanted to lure one of the Phoenixes to be Lan Fengli’s magical beast or perhaps she could trick Yin Jiuchen into giving the other one.
However, she had been so busy recently that she had not paid attention to that.
Lan Fengli blinked and looked at the angry Vermilion Bird. “Sister, can I have Taotie…”
Vermilion Bird instantly exploded!
“Taotie! You want Taotie? What’s so good about that guy? Let me tell you, your small arms and legs are not enough for him to swallow you whole!” Vermilion Bird pointed at Lan Fengli and cried out. The word ‘Taotie’ was now his trigger word.
Lan Fengli innocently said to Vermilion Bird, “I only want it to swallow you.”
“You stinky brat! Get out of the carriage right now. I want to fight you one-on-one! If I don’t beat you until your face is covered with peach blossoms, you won’t know why roses are so red!” The Vermilion Bird rolled up his sleeves and was about to fight Lan Fengli one-on-one. His scarlet eyes were practically spitting fire.
Shen Yanxiao facepalmed. Lan Fengli was kind to everyone, but he bullied Vermilion Bird in all sorts of ways. Could it be that even though he had amnesia, he still subconsciously remembered that Vermilion Bird had knocked him out?
Lan Fengli shot a glance at Vermilion Bird’s fist and calmly said, “I don’t bully disabled birds.”
“Who did you say is disabled? Come here, I promise I won’t beat you to death!” Vermilion Bird cried out and was about to pounce on Lan Fengli. Fortunately, Shen Yanxiao was quick enough to stop him.
Nangong Mengmeng, who had accidentally triggered a war, silently shrunk herself into the corner of the carriage and tried her best to reduce her presence.
She really did not do it on purpose…
“You? Don’t hurt your wings,” Lan Fengli said in all seriousness.
“Haha, if I don’t roast you today, I won’t be called Vermilion Bird!”
“You want to be called Little Bird-Pig?”
“I will kill you!”
“You can’t defeat me.”
“When I kill you, you’ll know it’s you who can’t beat me!”
Shen Yanxiao held Vermilion Bird with one hand and rubbed her forehead with the other. Lan Fengli’s provocation had perfectly resolved Vermilion Bird’s depressed mood. However, it was not easy to appease the furious Vermilion Bird!
Shen Yanxiao could only sigh at her brother’s method of appeasing other people’s emotions. It was… a tragic sight.
While Vermilion Bird was fuming, Lan Fengli continued to have a taut expression. Nangong Mengmeng was squatting in a corner and painting mushrooms, which forced Shen Yanxiao to comfort her along the way.
There was not a single moment of leisure along the way. Even Little Phoenix on Vermilion Bird’s head and the mini dragon on Shen Yanxiao’s shoulders were chirping incessantly. It was extremely lively.
After ten days of torture, the carriages of Sun Never Sets finally arrived at the gates of Twilight City. For Shen Yanxiao, the torturous h.e.l.l-ride finally ended.
