Chapter 584: Meeting the Phoenixes Again (3)

The little Phoenix had been like that since it stayed with Shen Yanxiao. While the Vermilion Bird acted as if he disliked the little Phoenix, he took thorough care of it. Even when eating, the little guy enjoyed the priority of choice. The Vermilion Bird would eat only after the little Phoenix was full.

To some extent, Shen Yanxiao felt the Vermilion Bird had it in him to be a ‘loving father’.

He was only overly proud. That was all.

“I don’t know. It has always been like this.” Shen Yanxiao was baffled. The little Phoenix had had good rest and abundance of food. The little Phoenix had not lost even one hair, let alone de-feathering.

The female Phoenix patted the little Phoenix’s fluff and said, “What do you usually feed it?”

“It eats whatever we eat.” Shen Yanxiao told her the truth.

The Phoenixes looked at each other. They finally saw the problem.

“My friend, it is still young and cannot digest the food that you humans eat. Those foods can make sure that it will not starve, but it cannot grow on them.”

“…” Shen Yanxiao remembered when the little Phoenix happily ate a dumpling. She began to mumble to herself. While the cubs usually drink milk, she did not see any problems with the little Phoenix eating other food.

Did it have to drink…

Milk?

“We are the ones to blame. We did not tell you that when Phoenixes are young, we drink dew to grow. Fortunately, our child is still young. It is not too late to be corrected.” They did not blame Shen Yanxiao. They felt bad enough that they needed others to raise their child. They could not pick bones with her.

Besides, Shen Yanxiao was still a teenager. How could they expect a kid to raise a baby?

“Good, then.” Shen Yanxiao nodded. She remembered why she was there. “I am here today to send the little Phoenix back to you,” Shen Yanxiao said.

The Phoenixes were startled. “Has our child become a burden to you? Has it been naughty?”

Shen Yanxiao shook her head.

“The little Phoenix is cute and adorable, but I will leave for the Forsaken Land soon. It is not a safe place, with demons running wild everywhere. I am afraid that I would not have enough energy to take care of the little Phoenix. This is why I am sending it back to you.”

“The Forsaken Land?” The Phoenixes were shocked to hear that Shen Yanxiao had to go to the Forsaken Land.

“Forsaken Land is where the demons used to gather. It is a dangerous land. Why do you have to go? The demons are too dangerous humans. If possible, please reconsider.” The male Phoenix was sincere when he said that. Shen Yanxiao had given them a nest and even took care of the little Phoenix for them. They had regarded the human as their friend.

Magical beasts were more loyal to friends than humans would ever be.

Shen Yanxiao replied, “I am well aware of the dangers there, but I do have to go. You may not know this, but we humans have our own rules. I have accepted the a.s.signment that I must build a city in the Forsaken Land. Before I accomplish my task, I must remain there.”

The two Phoenixes looked at each other with concern.

“Do you have to?”

Shen Yanxiao nodded.

“Well, then, take care of yourself. If needs be, send someone to us, and we will try our best to help you.” The male Phoenix made a promise to her.

Shen Yanxiao smiled. It had been a worthwhile trip.

The little Phoenix had been delivered back to its real parents. It was time for Shen Yanxiao to leave.
