Chapter 341: The Phoenix Does Not Dislike Its Mother’s Ugliness
Little Phoenix?
Tao Zi's eyes lit up and she climbed up with difficulty.
The senior continued with a smile, "The phoenix is a sacred beast of heaven and earth, rarely recognizing its master. However, those raised are naturally different, and will protect even those who don't recognize their master. This one is just a few days old and is seriously injured, so it definitely needs care. You can give it a try; it can be considered a reward."
Seeing her eagerness to fight, which was not even blocked by the blood scabs on her face, the little fox said quietly, "Tao Zi, don't force me to scold you."
Tao Zi turned around and asked, "Can you stay with me forever?"
It thought about it and was speechless, so it could only sharpen its claws.
Tao Zi walked to the little phoenix with difficulty. It was still wrapped in gray silk. She tried to pick out the gray silk with a dagger and a hammer that turned into a sword, but failed.
The senior continued to remind: "Do you have something like a magic sword?"
She raised her head and looked around, saying, "Senior knows me very well."
"No, no, I just think you should have it."
Tao Zi didn't quite understand what this meant: "Senior, what do you mean by this?"
The senior smiled and said, "I know your past life."
It was the previous life again. Tao Zi thought of the owner of the Xuyan Ruins and frowned, "Senior, could you explain it more clearly?"
"You can't tell me. You will understand it later."
She temporarily abandoned the issue and took out the scarred sword. She parted all the gray threads, revealing the faintly breathing little phoenix inside. She touched the sword with satisfaction, "Not bad."
The magic sword seemed to hear the sarcasm in her words, broke free from her hand, and hit her in the face. Another crack appeared on the hilt, which made Tao Zi feel distressed. She quickly put it back into the sword box.
The little phoenix slowly opened its eyes at this time. When it saw Tao Zi, its first reaction was to let out a small whimper and buried its face in its wings.
What does this mean?
Tao Zi looked at it blankly.
At this time, Yue Qingya's anxious voice sounded: "A Zi, are you okay?"
When the little fox heard the beautiful voice, it quietly moved its wings away and looked at him with its beautiful eyes.
He also noticed it: "What is this?"
Before Tao Zi could say anything, the little phoenix flapped its wings and stumbled towards Yue Qingya, whimpering several times like a spoiled child.
He looked at Fenghuang who was hugging his thigh, and looked at Tao Zi in confusion.
The elder's voice murmured, "Oh no! The Phoenix Clan relies on appearance."
The little fox looked at Yue Qingya, who was clean, tidy and good-looking, and then looked at Tao Zi, whose clothes were torn and whose face was covered with blood scabs and scars. He laughed out loud with glee and choked on blood several times.
Tao Zi said quietly, "The son of destiny, truly worthy of the name."
Yue Qingya also reacted and looked away awkwardly.
At this time, the little phoenix looked back and forth at the two of them and made a pleasant sound. It could be heard that it was talking, but no one knew what it was saying.
The elder said, "The little phoenix has just been born and has not yet received the inheritance. It can't speak human language. This is Phoenix language, which I don't understand either, but that nine-tailed fox over there should understand something."
Tao Zi and the others looked at the little fox together, only to find that its face was twitching from laughing so hard.
She asked expressionlessly, "Little fox, what are you laughing at?"
The little fox swallowed the blood in his mouth and said, "This little fox is saying, hahaha, it's saying that a phoenix doesn't mind its mother being ugly!"
It couldn't stop laughing, and after a long while it continued, "It's trying to persuade the handsome father not to despise the ugly mother, and it also said that it doesn't despise her either, hahahaha..."
Tao Zi turned to the little phoenix and said through gritted teeth: "I'm not your mother, and I'm not ugly!"
The little phoenix seemed to hear that she was angry, so it let go of Yue Qingya's legs, walked slowly to her side, looked up at her, immediately covered its eyes with its wings, picked up a feather and put it next to her, then fluttered back.
The senior hummed and hesitated, "Maybe it's comforting you?"
Yue Qingya hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Why does it recognize me as its father?"
"You are the first male it has seen since it was born, and Tao Zi is the first female it has seen. Some monsters will still recognize you as their parents even if they know you are not their real parents."
Tao Zi took the hammer back and said with a smile, "Senior, where is my reward? I don't want this little phoenix anymore."
The little fox laughed and pointed at the phoenix and said some fox language. The phoenix probably understood and cursed back a few words. The little fox opened his eyes wide and cursed back angrily.
At this moment, a storage ring suddenly appeared in mid-air, and the elder's voice rang out, "The herbs inside can help the one in your bracelet wake up and regain some of his strength. Also, there's a phoenix tree inside, left for the little phoenix by its parents."
Tao Zi thanked him.
Yue Qingya asked doubtfully, "Where are its parents?"
"It's dead, with only one egg left. I used up most of the ruins' resources to hatch it, but I almost lost it to the aliens." They heard the elder sigh, "This is the only phoenix in the world. If it were controlled by the aliens, it would be a disaster."
The little fox finally took time out from the quarrel to explain, "The phoenix is a propitious beast between heaven and earth. It is also the last one, and it is blessed with good fortune. If the alien race controls it, once a war breaks out, half of the demon beasts will be destroyed."
The little phoenix understood what it said and puffed out its chest proudly.
Tao Zi said solemnly, "No wonder such a vast Cunxu Abyss is only suitable for cultivation for cultivators at the Jindan stage and below. It turns out all the resources are used to hatch phoenix eggs."
"After Little Phoenix leaves with you, the remaining things in this small abyss will be placed on the upper five floors. Then the Yuanying can come and have a try."
She suddenly asked a strange question: "What about me?"
The senior sighed and said, "I don't have anything suitable for physical cultivation here."
"Is there anyone suitable for talisman cultivation or medical cultivation?"
The senior immediately said, "Yes, I'll give it to you."
While they were waiting, the little fox and the little phoenix started arguing more and more. Yue Qingya couldn't help but ask, "What are you arguing about?"
The little fox said angrily, "It called me a hairless fox and said I was ugly. It also said that the Nine-Tailed Fox clan was ashamed of having a fox like me!"
Tao Zi laughed unkindly, and it became even angrier: "It's only natural that it would say that a contracted monster with an ugly master is ugly!"
She slowly put away her smile and stared at the little phoenix. The little phoenix hugged her thighs with its wings even more forcefully and hid behind Yue Qingya. Suddenly, it pointed its wings in a direction and screamed.
Tao Zi quickly looked back and saw that one of the aliens was still alive and was trying to escape. She took out her sledgehammer and chased after him: "Just because I can't beat many against one doesn't mean I can't fight one on one."
"Azi, calm down, you're still injured!"
