Chapter 93 093: Senluo Qingliyuan
"Hoo..." Ye Fei exhaled a breath of stale air and slowly opened her eyes, only to find Li Yuan sitting in front of her, his long, sword-like eyebrows slightly furrowed, his face showing deep thought.
Ye Fei: "What are you thinking about?"
Li Yuan turned and stared at her intently. After a long while, he asked her, "How are you feeling?"
"I'm fine, but I'll need to rest for a few days back at the academy." Ye Fei shook her arm and sighed helplessly, "Internal injuries are no small matter..."
Li Yuan nodded in agreement: "Mm."
Ye Fei got up and stretched, about to speak to Li Yuan, when she suddenly saw something moving towards her from behind Li Yuan in the sea of star flowers.
"What's that?" Ye Fei pointed behind him.
Li Yuan looked back and saw a small, fluffy head pop out from the pink sea of flowers, its small, black, stone-like eyes darting around.
The little creature made eye contact with Ye Fei for a moment, then suddenly flew over and landed on her head with a thud.
This is a kite with a bright green body and a long phoenix feather on its back. Judging from its appearance, it should still be a juvenile bird.
Ye Fei grabbed the baby bird in one hand and frowned: "A spirit beast?"
Li Yuan took the kite from Ye Fei's hand, examined it carefully, and then looked surprised: "This is a Senluo Qingli kite."
"Chirp chirp!" The fledgling flapped its wings, trying to break free from Li Yuan's grasp. You rascal! Let go! Let go!
"The Azure Azure Kite?" Ye Fei didn't know much about the spirit beasts of this world, and scratched her head in confusion: "Why did it just now..."
Li Yuan released his grip, and the fledgling bird flew away as if fleeing to Ye Fei's back. It hid behind her shoulder, revealing only a pair of small eyes full of fear.
"The Senluo Qingliyuan is a very special existence among wood-type spirit beasts." Li Yuan crossed his arms and looked at the chick with a calm gaze. "The female Senluo Qingliyuan only lays one spirit beast egg in her lifetime. After laying the egg, she puts all her cultivation into the egg, so the chick is a divine beast from the moment it hatches."
"You're saying this baby bird isn't a spirit beast, but a divine beast?!" Ye Fei exclaimed in astonishment. "But why is it so affectionate towards me?"
“The Senluo Qingli Kite is naturally immune to poisons, and I suspect that this White Fairy Orchid is its guardian.” Li Yuan pointed to the White Fairy Orchid and said, “Since you protected the White Fairy Orchid, it may form a contract with you and become your contracted beast.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Fei immediately scooped the baby bird from her shoulder into her palm: "Little guy, are you really going to be my contracted beast?"
The fledgling nodded to Night Scarlet, its black eyes filled with joy.
Ye Fei thought for a moment and said, "Actually, my protection of Bai Xianlan just now was purely an instinctive reaction. You don't need to form a contract with me because of that."
"Chirp! Chirp chirp!"
Upon hearing Ye Fei's words, the fledgling chirped as if it were in a hurry, but unfortunately, Ye Fei couldn't understand its bird language at all.
"What should we do?" Ye Fei could only look to Li Yuan for help.
Li Yuan, puzzled, asked, "Why not form a pact with it? Although it's a fledgling, it's a divine beast. You should be happy that it's willing to form a pact with you."
“To form a bond with it means it will be under my control. If it rashly forms a bond with me for such a reason, it will lose its freedom.” Ye Fei gently rubbed the fledgling’s fluffy head and smiled. “Birds should fly to the sky on the wind. It should become an eagle, not a caged bird.”
Upon hearing this, a ripple appeared in Li Yuan's eyes.
He knew that humans were all greedy creatures, but she... was very different from other humans.
