2246 If I were you, I would have already pecked myself

The golden man had a brush in his left hand and a bucket in his right one. He was rather slim, and he seemed to be an ascetic.

Zither Master Phoenix Bearing frowned. She did not remember having such a friend when she was in the Ancient Heavenly City. However, the golden skin of the other party was a bit familiar. There were several fellow daoists since the era of the Heavenly City who had such golden skin.

As if sensing Zither Master Phoenix Bearing’s divine sense, the golden figure suddenly raised his head and smiled slightly in her direction.

He sensed me? Zither Master Phoenix Bearing was a little surprised. When she scanned the other party with her divine sense, she tried to do so as sneakily as possible to avoid being noticed by the other party.

However, she did not expect the other party’s senses to be so strong.

He’s very strong!

Zither Master Phoenix Bearing could feel that the golden man’s thin body contained a terrifying energy. She felt that he was not any weaker than her.

If the other party wanted to force his way in, the defenses of the secret realm would not be able to stop him.

Considering that she had just had a fight with the Venerable Emperor’s subordinates, Zither Master Phoenix Bearing did not want any more trouble for the time being.

“Let him in. Bring him directly to my immortal cave,” Zither Master Phoenix Bearing said via voice transmission.

This immortal cave was a fragment of her palace from the Heavenly City. This was a place where she could fully display her strength.

After a few minutes, the thin golden man arrived at the entrance of Zither Master Phoenix Bearing’s immortal cave under the guidance of a member of the Imperial Palace.

The little daoist priest who had led the way had walked slowly on purpose—as they had just fought with the Venerable Emperor’s subordinates, everyone was still quite vigilant.

The thin golden man did not mind. He followed behind the guide very cooperatively, admiring the surrounding scenery while walking.

The guide who led the way said respectfully, “Here we are, Senior. This is Zither Master’s immortal cave.”

As soon as the words fell, the little daoist priest was taken aback. When facing this thin golden man, his tone unknowingly became respectful.

From the beginning to the end, the thin golden man did not release any pressure. He maintained a kind demeanor and smiling expression the entire time.

The little daoist priest thought to himself, How terrifying. This might be another senior who has survived from the era of the Heavenly City just like Zither Master!

“Thank you, little friend. Would you like to have golden skin? As a thank you for leading the way, I can paint a layer on for you for free. Domineering gold is the fas.h.i.+on of olden times.” The thin golden man lifted the bucket in his hand with a smile. It was filled with dazzling gold paint.

“What a pity, you missed a rare opportunity.” The golden man put away the paint bucket and said, “This is a treasure that even Immortals envy. In the era of the Ancient Heavenly City, when others begged me to paint them with it, I would be reluctant to do so.”

That golden paint was so precious?

“I’ll see you later, little daoist priest. You’re a nice person.” The golden man put the brush in his trouser pocket and pushed the door open.

When the door was pushed open, the brush in the trouser pocket swung left and right in an eye-catching manner.

The daoist priest stood at the entrance of the cave and stayed there for a long while.

He touched his chest, recalling what the golden man said, and could not help but feel a sense of loss.

He truly felt that he had just lost a great opportunity.

Zither Master Phoenix Bearing watched the entire scene carefully.

Era of the Ancient Heavenly City… Paint… Valuable gold paint… Domineering gold…

Following these keywords, Zither Master Phoenix Bearing searched her mind for anything relevant.

Soon, a cla.s.sic picture appeared in her memory.

It was a man whose face she could no longer remember, screaming and being beaten from one end of the Heavenly City to the other. It was quite the spectacle.

The screams of that man could be heard throughout the entire Heavenly City.

And from that day on, the White Dragon Emperor became the Golden Ancestral Dragon.

Zither Master Phoenix Bearing said softly, “Slow-Witted Song?”

However, that should not be the case.

This thin golden man was very different from Slow-Witted Song in terms of image, temperament, and physical appearance.

While she was in thought, the golden man had already arrived before her.

He wasn’t afraid in the least, and he casually sat down on the spot.

Zither Master Phoenix Bearing had shrunk in size at this time, but her body was still nearly ten meters tall.

The golden man was thin and small. As such, when he sat in front of her, he looked like a bug in front of a chicken.

The golden man said with a smile after sitting cross-legged, “Tsk, I can’t help but feel that you might just lower your head, and peck me and eat me at any moment.”

The golden man raised his hand and said, “Is that some kind of secret code? I am me, a firework with a different color!”

Zither Master Phoenix Bearing stared fiercely at the other person, thinking whether or not she should really peck and eat him.

“You already have guesses in your mind, so why ask more?” The golden man grabbed his feet with both hands, and sat on the ground shaking like a tumbler.

Zither Master Phoenix Bearing: “…”

The golden man asked suddenly, “By the way, where is your claw? Why is it missing?”

Zither Master Phoenix Bearing said coldly, “I don’t have claws.”

“Huh?” The golden man was taken aback for a moment, and then he burst out in laughter.

He laughed so hard that tears even came out of his eyes.

“What are you laughing at?!” Zither Master Phoenix Bearing exclaimed angrily. The flames on her body flared up.

“Fairy Phoenix Bearing, you’re a phoenix with the bloodline of a Bifang[1]. Right now, your only leg has been removed, yet you do not even know it. It seems that you have been tricked.” The golden man was still shaking like a tumbler as he added, “Don’t you feel somewhat uncomfortable as of late, as if something was missing?”

Zither Master Phoenix Bearing’s eyes turned serious.

If no one had reminded her, she would probably have kept feeling that she truly did not have claws.

But as long as soon as someone pointed it out, with her realm, she could immediately sense that something was indeed wrong.

Zither Master Phoenix Bearing asked, “So, where’s my claw?”

The golden man laughed and said, “You ask me, but how am I supposed to know?”

Zither Master Phoenix Bearing: “…”

“By the way, Fairy Phoenix Bearing, do you want to be painted with golden paint? Today I can give you a discount, half price for a layer of gold skin.” The man suddenly took out the brush in his trouser pocket and waved it around.

Zither Master Phoenix Bearing said with annoyance, “Get out!”

She did not want to change her name to Zither Master Golden Phoenix.

“You missed a rare opportunity.” The golden man shook his head.

Zither Master Phoenix Bearing said sternly, “Stop fooling around. Tell me, what are you here for?”

The golden man smiled and said, “You really can hold your temper… I’ve been chatting with you for so long, and only now did you ask to get straight to the point. If I were you, I would’ve already pecked myself until getting under my skin.”

Zither Master Phoenix Bearing: “…”

If you continue to talk about your skin, believe it or not, I might really peck it off clean!

The golden man stood up and stretched out his hand. The bucket of golden paint and the brush were stored in his spatial magical treasure.

Then, he made an embracing gesture in Zither Master Phoenix Bearing’s direction and said, “Come, be my bird!”

[1] A legendary crane-like bird with only one leg.
