“Don’t be afraid. I’m here now.” Xiu’s voice was very light and gentle, as if he were afraid of frightening Shen Yanxiao.
Shen Yanxiao bit her lip. The pain just came so suddenly, and the words of the Dragon God echoed in her ears. She knew that right now, she could not get close to Xiu.
The divine power of the gods was the nemesis of the undead. Even though Xiu had tried hard to suppress his own power, the existence of the gods itself was enough to frighten the undead. What was more, Xiu was among the superior gods: the War God, second only to the Lord God. His strength was so great that the undead simply wouldn’t be able to get near him.
“Master…” Vermillion Bird slowly stepped out from Xiu’s back. How he wanted to plunge into Shen Yanxiao’s arms, but what had just happened made him dared not rush forward.
Would his power also bring pain to Shen Yanxiao?
“Vermillion Bird.” Xiu suddenly called.
“Yes?”
“Go ahead, you can.”
Vermillion Bird was slightly stunned. He hesitated for a moment, then slowly moved towards Shen Yanxiao. She looked at the cautious Vermillion Bird and her heart felt sentimental.
Vermillion Bird stood beside Shen Yanxiao and hesitated for a long time before slowly reaching out his little hand. He reluctantly held Shen Yanxiao’s little thumb. At the same time, he raised his head and observed Shen Yanxiao’s expression. As long as Shen Yanxiao revealed a little painful expression, he would immediately leave her side.
Vermillion Bird’s eyes reflected Shen Yanxiao’s small face that had a shallow smile. At this moment, Vermillion Bird finally put down his worries. He plunged into Shen Yanxiao’s arms with a whoosh and burst into tears.
“How could you do this? How could you do this? Why did you leave me again? You are a big liar!” Vermillion Bird’s voice mixed with sobs echoed in the whole room. Shen Yanxiao could only hug Vermillion Bird tightly to express her apology.
If she had a choice, she would never want to be like this.
Several months of parting had already made her suffer a lot from yearning.
Standing on the sidelines, Taotie’s eyes reddened slightly. Compared with Vermillion Bird, he was lucky. Because he was a magical beast of dark elements, he was able to stay beside Shen Yanxiao all this time.
“Lord Xiu, the undead, they…” Taotie rubbed his nose and tried to look calm.
Would such a big movement alarm the undead in this inn?
Xiu shook his head.
“Boundary.”
As early as the moment they entered the room, Xiu had already wrapped the whole place with a boundary.
Vermillion Bird did not know how long he cried. It wasn’t until his throat was completely hoarse that he fell asleep on Shen Yanxiao’s bosom.
Shen Yanxiao sat on the bed with Vermillion Bird in her arms, yet her eyes never moved away from Xiu’s body.
“Why did you come here all of a sudden? The undead didn’t discover you?” Shen Yanxiao asked.
Xiu shook his head in response.
The Dragon God looked at Xiu and said while panting, “He couldn’t wait to come and had me fly day and night.” The Dragon God, who had been used as a means of transportation, had the urge to die. What was more tragic was that he couldn’t beat this person. He could only let himself be enslaved for a long time without any chance of resisting.
Xiu lightly said, “The matters in Hidden Dragon Continent have been settled. I estimate that the layers of the seal on your body should be all unlocked soon.”
That was why…
He came to pick her up.
Shen Yanxiao pursed her lips and pretended to be relaxed. She said, “Have the dragons become stable? What happened after I left?”
Xiu gave the Dragon God a look, and the Dragon God sighed in resignation.
Should this guy be so reserved? Did you really want him dead?
He was a superior god for goodness’ sake, could you not treat him as your follower ah!
