She was completely aware of Xiu’s cruel nature, and so she did not doubt even a bit that he would do such an astonishingly improbable thing.
‘Leave the Vermillion Bird behind.’
“Leave the Vermillion Bird behind?" Shen Yanxiao was surprised for a moment. Even though she a.s.signed the Vermillion Bird to stay beside Shen Feng and to take care of him these past few days, she had never intended to abandon her own mythological beast when going out the city, ah!
'If it comes with us, do you think you will be able to train yourself?’ If the Vermillion Bird were with Shen Yanxiao, it would obviously protect her with his life. And Xiu was awfully clear that with the Vermillion Bird’s current strength, it could still single out all the demons in the Barren Land. If they took along the Vermillion Bird, then Shen Yanxiao would not have gone out to cultivate but would rather have gone out to travel.
"Then I have to tell this to him.” Shen Yanxiao sighed. She could almost see the Vermillion Bird’s crying face once he heard the news.
"But if you leave the Rising Sun City, then wouldn’t you be able to absorb the dark elements?”
‘Have you forgotten the black crystal?’
Shen Yanxiao immediately understood Xiu’s intention. He took a black crystal that could absorb dark elements so that he could temporarily absorb them from it while away from the city.
Because she was determined to going out to cultivate, Shen Yanxiao immediately started the task of arranging things.
After the people in the Rising Sun City learned that Shen Yanxiao would go out to cultivate, they were all dumbfounded.
They would have been fine if it were just throwing all the jobs to them while she goofed around and so, they really had no problem that she would throw everything on them!
What made them really furious was that Shen Yanxiao actually wanted to go alone this time… Not even taking anyone along with her!
For a moment, the entire Rising Sun City flared up.
“You… You said that you would never leave me again!” The Vermillion Bird looked at Shen Yanxiao with tearful eyes. His delicate, tender, tiny fingers pointing at her as if he were “abandoned” and “betrayed by his love”!
Meanwhile, Lan Fengli’s whole face looked as if disappointed. He silently stretched out his claws and grabbed the corner of Shen Yanxiao’s clothes, "I'll make sure to be well-behaved, so please take me along. I don’t want to separate from older sister… Huhuhu…” This was his att.i.tude.
"The Oriental City construction has just started; is it not inappropriate for you to go out this time?” Du Lang was holding a bunch of letters from the Oriental City while standing right in front of Shen Yanxiao.
"I am not too young and could not resist the temptation to play around.” On the other hand, Uncle Jiu deliberately stretched out his arm to hold his back, acting as if he could not bear the heavy burden she gave him.
"It’s extremely not kind for you to slip away." Qi Xia crossed his arms in front of his chest, looking calm and unruffled even during the chaos while looking at a certain person.
"If there’s an interesting thing to play, share it.” Tang Nazhi strongly said, his face was taunting and full of righteousness.
"It’s not safe for you to go outside alone.” Yan Yu looked worried.
“Taking several people with you would also be better.” Yang Xi stroked his chin, wondering if they should start packing their things and head out of the city along with this little girl.
"I think that what they are saying is right." Li Xiaowei, in a low voice, agreed with the others.
The five beasts’ nine-word statements were all neat and tidy; a person would not be able to bear listening to them directly. Shen Yanxiao could not help but caress her forehead with her hand. Did they really not discuss this in advance?
Shen Yanxiao felt like she was under big pressure before everyone’s opposition and protests.
She did not doubt even a bit that if she really were to slip away, these people would join together to tie her down and carry her back to the City Lord Residence and treat her like a stuffed toy.
Due to the pressure of everyone’s opinion, Shen Yanxiao temporarily declared that she would not go out.
After that, without even giving them time to react, like a wisp of smoke, she quickly disappeared and ran back to her room.
After hearing Shen Yanxiao giving up on her idea, the group of people who were summoned felt relieved and relaxed.
However, the next morning, when they looked at the empty City Lord’s chamber, all of them were dumbfounded...
Oh my G.o.d! Did you not agree to not leave stealthily?
In the end, you do not have the integrity of a city lord!
