Chapter 474: Two Adorable Animals (1)

They were still inside the room. Shen Yanxiao sat on a chair with her legs crossed and her arms folded in front of her chest. She looked gloomy, and she kept her gaze on a certain mythical beast in the air and an adorkable little guy who had crouched on the head of that mythical beast.

Vermillion Bird was on his knees in mid-air, and his left ear had just experienced savage torture. Vermillion Bird lowered his dark and watery eyes. He would also raise his eyes to steal a look at his master. As soon as he realized that his master would denounce him for his crimes, he lowered his head to his chest.

“Chu?” The little Phoenix, who did not know about the dangerous situation, tilted its tiny head and blinked its ignorant googly eyes as it looked at someone in misery. The little Phoenix appeared to be completely baffled.

“How many times have you done this?” Shen Yanxiao squinted her eyes as she squeezed those words from her mouth.

Vermilion Bird’s chubby body twitched. “The… first…” he stuttered.

“Hmm?” A glint of anger rose in Shen Yanxiao’s eyes.

The Vermilion Bird trembled and stuttered, “Seven… times….”

“Seven times! You have set seven fires this month! Are you trying to burn the inn into ashes?” Shen Yanxiao stared at the pitiable Vermilion Bird, eager to slap the guy with such tremendous ability of destruction.

The Vermilion Bird lowered his head as he choked. He felt guilty when he saw the fury on his master’s face.

Whenever Shen Yanxiao was there to visit him, the Vermillion Bird would use the gold coins that Shen Yanxiao had left for him to buy the innkeeper’s silence. How could he have known that Shen Yanxiao would catch him red-handed that day!

“I… I didn’t mean to…” The Vermilion Bird tried to defend himself in a low voice.

“Oh? Then tell me how you burned their inn when everything was all right.” Shen Yanxiao sneered.

The Vermilion Bird immediately picked up the adorkable little Phoenix, who had been staring at him and put it in front of Shen Yanxiao.

“This little guy is to blame. It likes to wander off, so it would cause trouble even when I only wanted to head downstairs to grab a bite.” The Vermilion Bird sounded indignant.

The adorkable little guy blinked, unaware that it was thrown under the bus. The small Phoenix then flapped its tiny wings as it happily made the pleasant ‘chu-chu’ sound.

Shen Yanxiao quirked her eyebrows.

“Trouble? What kind of trouble has the little Phoenix caused? Do tell.”

The Vermilion Bird answered, “The other people in the inn are freaked out, thanks to its ugliness. Those people would scream so loudly that I can’t even enjoy a quiet meal. So… So I had to perform a petty punishment to warn against a greater penalty.”

“Screaming?” Shen Yanxiao did not buy Vermilion Bird’s words at all. The little Phoenix was too ugly? How did the Vermilion Bird come up with that excuse?

The little Phoenix had not grown up yet, but its chubby look was quite adorable. Besides, the little Phoenix did not have a weak aura. Additionally, its bright color even highlighted its fluffiness. Ugliness had nothing to do with the little Phoenix.

“Can’t you think of any better excuses?” Shen Yanxiao yelled.

Vermilion Bird curled his lips. When he looked at his furious master, the Vermilion Bird was about to burst into tears.

He did not think he was at fault. Every time he went down with the little Phoenix for a meal, a huge group of people would gather and engage in a heated discussion. For the last few times, some girls even came to them to tease the little Phoenix. That was not the worst part; those women had tried to pat him on his cheeks as well.

The Vermilion Bird hated women the most. In a fit of anger, the Vermilion Bird released a ball of flames, which had frightened those people.

Things were even more exaggerated than that. A big, strong, crazy guy wanted to pat him. The Vermilion Bird would not be called a Vermillion Bird if he could stay calm in such a situation.
