Nian Wanzhou looked at the egg again, and saw that the patterns on the egg were becoming more and more numerous and clearer. However, the patterns were unfamiliar; she had never seen them before.
For some reason, she always felt that this egg was different from the one she hatched from; it seemed to be hatching much slower.
Not only had she never seen it before, but everyone present had never seen this pattern before. They all gathered around to watch with the curiosity of curious children, since the flames didn't harm them at all.
Lexi, having recovered from her injuries, also came to visit.
He hadn't noticed it before, but once he did... he felt like he'd seen this pattern and egg somewhere before.
Isn't this the pattern of a phoenix?
"Senior sister, this is a phoenix egg!!" Le Xi exclaimed excitedly, pointing at the egg. Her voice was so loud that almost everyone present could hear it.
After Lexi finished speaking, the group immediately fell silent.
Phoenix eggs... Doesn't that contain the legacy of the phoenix clan? My goodness, this is incredible!
Wei Wenru was also surprised. She watched the eggshell in her hand gradually crack, feeling somewhat helpless: "It's about to hatch, what should I do? Wanwan, you..."
Looking up at Nian Wanzhou, the other party was staring at the egg with a wary expression.
"Senior sister... there's no way to stop this, so let it hatch. Since it didn't hurt you, it seems to have chosen you, so don't panic!" Nian Wanzhou said through gritted teeth. Although she didn't want to admit it, the egg had chosen her senior sister.
"Crack, crack..." The eggshell kept cracking, and soon, the entire eggshell was cracked open, finally revealing the little creature inside.
A small, crimson phoenix flew out of its egg, accompanied by a burst of colorful light, instantly filling the entire cave with the color of flames.
The phoenix's cry startled countless birds and beasts, and their calls echoed throughout the valley, as if celebrating the king's birth. These sounds lingered in everyone's ears, deeply moving them.
The phoenix phenomenon is an auspicious sign from heaven, an extremely rare occurrence, just like the appearance of the boatman at the end of the year.
The mysterious power of the phoenix radiated light, enveloping the entire sky in its glow, as if it were the most magnificent color in the world, while the dark cave was merely its backdrop...
The phoenix in the sky had jet-black pupils, like ink, that flowed with dazzling light.
His eyes shone like the brightest stars in the night.
After circling twice in mid-air, it landed in Wei Wenru's hand, then quickly ate the eggshell and rubbed it against her hand.
Then, in a childish and soft voice, she said, "Mother...Mother?"
The phoenix, having just hatched, wanted to pounce on Wei Wenru and hug her, but its body was too small to fly up.
and……
Two pairs of malicious eyes were staring at him.
Before he could even get close, let alone stand up, Nian Wanzhou grabbed him and kicked him away. "What mother? She's my mommy, not your mother! Don't try to take her from me, or I'll... I'll roast you and eat you like bird meat!"
The phoenix fell to the ground, its beautiful feathers now stained and dirty with withered leaves and dust.
Phoenix: Waaaaah, where did this stinky dragon come from? She's so fierce.
Why wasn't she afraid of the phoenix's flames? She actually managed to grab him and throw him away!
Isn't it something only a mother can do?
Then, Phoenix looked pitifully at his mother, Wei Wenru, who was being tightly hugged by the stinky dragon.
Seeing Phoenix playing to her pitiful side.
Following suit, Nian Wanzhou immediately said aggrievedly, "Senior sister, I am your most beloved treasure, you can't be nice to him! Waaah, I will be very sad."
"Senior sister, are you getting tired of me? I didn't want this either, suddenly someone is competing with me for your affection, I... I can't bear to see you have other children."
Wei Wenru: ...Ah, no, this is a battlefield?
She quickly hugged Nian Wanzhou, patiently comforting and coaxing her: "Be good, be good, I only have Wanwan as my child. That phoenix... came out of nowhere. Let's see what he wants to do first."
Lexi was also unhappy. It was bad enough that a junior sister had come to compete for favor, but why was there also this stinky phoenix?
No, no, this won't do!
At this moment, he only acknowledged Nian Wanzhou and spoke up for her: "That's right, senior sister, isn't it enough that you have one precious junior sister?"
Wei Wenru: No, no, that's really enough!
Phoenix: ? I've been targeted and ostracized for no reason! This won't do.
"Mother, am I not your child? Waaah, you're the one who woke me up, you can't be biased~" Phoenix looked at Wei Wenru pitifully again, trying to win her favor.
Nian Wanzhou immediately understood why she felt that way.
There's a phoenix cub trying to steal her mommy!
What a joke! Her mom only has one precious, obedient daughter, how could she possibly have other brothers! Her mom said that she can only have one precious child in this life, and she would never let other children share her love.
So... don't even think about it, the phoenix can only stand aside, don't even think about it!
Regardless of Wei Wenru's wishes, Nian Wanzhou pulled her back and declared domineeringly, "Little Phoenix, you've mistaken your mother for someone else. This is my senior sister, not your real mother! Your real mother is a phoenix, not a human."
Look at yourself, how do you resemble my senior sister at all? Wake up!
Little Phoenix looked at herself in confusion, then at Wei Wenru, and exclaimed in shock: It really is different! My biological mother isn't my biological mother!
What should we do then?
The group was initially frightened by the phoenix, but now they were speechless at the little white dragon's antics. How could someone fool a cub like that?
The amazing thing is that the phoenix cub actually believed it!
When Nian Wanzhou saw the effect, she immediately became happy.
She reached out and patted the little phoenix: "Be good, my senior sister isn't your real mother, so you're not allowed to call her 'mother' anymore."
Little Phoenix: ...I feel like I've been cheated, but I can't figure out why.
"Okay, then... can I call you godmother? You feel so familiar, I like you so much." The little phoenix fluttered over, but because it was still too small, it flew wobbly.
Nian Wanzhou didn't stop her this time, thinking: Nonsense, a daughter of the Heavenly Dao, a gift prepared by the Heavenly Dao for its own daughter, how could it not be affectionate?
“Senior sister, you should form a contract with him. This is your opportunity,” Nian Wanzhou whispered in Wei Wenru’s ear. “With him, your future cultivation will be much smoother.”
Wei Wenru was taken aback, then shook her head: "We have never learned about this kind of contract, and besides, he is a divine beast, so it is probably even more difficult."
Nian Wanzhou: "..."
It seems so, oh right, she's never seen any of her senior brothers or sisters in her sect who have contracted with spirit beasts.
Nian Wanzhou scratched his head in frustration. Although there was a Beast Taming Sect on their continent, they rarely showed themselves, let alone the secret spirit beast contract.
