Shao Bai's hand, which was currently stroking Zhu Yao's feathers, paused, and the gentleness on his face faded a little.
"Shao Bai, you know Little Six …"
"It has nothing to do with me." Shao Bai suddenly interrupted her words, and glanced at Qian Yu lightly, "Whether he returns or not, it is the Patriarch's decision."
"…" Qian Yu was at a loss for words, and the expression on her face changed several times. After a long time, she chuckled and said, "Little Seventh has been back for so long, but she still hasn't seen her Sixth Big Brother. Are you really not going to let her see him?"
Shao Bai frowned, his face was filled with disapproval. Holding onto the fruits, he fed Zhu Yao one after another. He did not reply either, as though he was silently protesting. The word 'oppression' seemed to be floating in the air.
Zhu Yao silently swallowed the fruit, her head was filled with cold sweat. Haah, even if the two of you are quarreling, there's no need to drag me into it. If you continue to feed me, I'll be stuffed!
Besides, who was that Little Six? He had actually angered the good-tempered Shao Bai. What a genius!
After waiting for a long time for him to reply, Xian Yu gradually became disappointed. After a while, she sighed and said, "Forget it, let Little Seventh meet her Eighth Brother. He has already come out."
Shao Bai did not object this time.
Not long after, a tall man walked in. He had a muscular body and was carrying a three or four-year-old child in his arms. As he walked, he smiled and greeted, "Hello, Little Seven."
"Hello, Xiao San!" Zhu Yao faced this person who was said to be her third brother, and once again waved her wings. Unfortunately, she could only let out a single cry. "Chick!"
"Mother, Second Brother." Little Three nodded at the two. He placed the child in his arms next to Zhu Yao. "Little Seventh, this is your eighth little brother."
Only then did Zhu Yao begin to size up this child. He was also a boy, and his little round face looked very cute. Currently, his face was stretched taut, and he did not speak even after being placed on the bed. Instead, he was seriously sizing up Zhu Yao who was still in the form of a bird.
The kinship of the Phoenixes was based on the first person they saw after their Nirvana. Every time a Phoenix was reborn, the members of the same clan would sense it. This caused the relationship between their clans to be very complicated, and they generally had many mouths. There were nine of them in the clan leader's family.
The child in front of him should be the youngest Phoenix.
After the Third Brother put down the man, he seemed to have something to discuss with Shao Bai and Qian Yu. After saying a few words to them, he left. Only Zhu Yao and this person who was said to be her eighth little brother were left in the house, both of them looking at each other.
A moment later, the child snorted coldly. "Tch."
"…" Was she being looked down upon?
"I don't like you!" Little wimp rolled his eyes at her.
So what if I can roll my eyes? I can even cross my eyes. She focused her eyes in the middle and glared back.
Little wimp's little face scrunched up, and he despised her even more. "You're so ugly!"
"…" He was stabbed in the chest.
"Not even a tail."
"…" Uh, she just hadn't grown it yet.
"You actually dare to run around naked."
"…" Where did he run off to? She clearly suppressed him.
"I don't want to play with you." He looked her up and down, and added, "Naked thing!"
Zhu Yao simply felt as though a few knives were stabbing right into her heart. As expected, she hated spoiled brats the most. Every single one of them was the kind of person who would tear the roof tiles if not beaten.
"Why aren't you talking?" Seeing that she did not reply, little wimp was enraged.
"…" She had to be able to talk first, little bastard.
"Is it because you know you're too ugly, and you don't dare to talk?"
"…"
"Mn, since you know you're ugly, then you can still be saved!"
The hell, you're not forcing me to make a move.
Zhu Yao was enraged. Her claw reached into the bag at the side, grabbed out a handful of golden melon seeds, and scattered them under the bed.
Little wimp's eyes instantly widened, and he let out an excited cry. "Chick …" In an instant, he turned into a golden phoenix the size of a table, and pounced down the bed to pick up the melon seeds.
Zhu Yao coldly smiled. A fool that could be settled with a handful of melon seeds, what qualifications did he have to despise her?
Wait a minute!
Why did she have to be calculative with a little wimp?
What happened to her rationality as an adult?
Zhu Yao hugged her head with her wings, and sank into a deep state of self-loathing …
Seeing that the melon seeds on the ground were about to be picked clean by the little phoenix, she could not help but scatter another handful with her claw. Ah, who can stop this sinful claw of mine?
Therefore, when the three adult old phoenixes came back, they saw such a scene of "brotherly siblings". One was calmly scattering melon seeds on the bed, while the other was excitedly picking up melon seeds all over the floor.
— —
From that day on, Xiao Ba never came to see her again. A mighty divine beast, a phoenix, was being fed by her like a little chick. Zhu Yao wondered if some sort of childhood trauma would be left behind when he regained his senses. However, Shao Bai did not blame her. He just smiled gently and helped her prepare two more bags of claws.
Hmm, as expected of a good brother, you're smart.
Her tail feathers had yet to grow, and her body had yet to grow. More and more, she felt that she was no longer a phoenix, but a close relative of a phoenix … a chicken. Every day I looked at the bare ground and felt a deep sadness. He didn't think so in the past, but now that Eighty had mentioned it, he understood. She didn't dare to go out naked. That would make her feel very immoral.
The more time passed, the more she missed her master. Logically speaking, it was impossible for him to abandon her. However, it had been so long, yet she did not even see his shadow. Actually, ever since she saw that huge tree, she had faintly guessed that this place was not the Divine Realm. The reason why her master did not come looking for her, was most probably because he could not reach this place in the first place. They were basically not in the same realm.
Zhu Yao was a little sad. Other than the time her master ascended, this was the second time she was in a different world from him. And this time, she most probably could not even contact him.
This was the first time Zhu Yao did not even know what a bug was, and she already had the mood to go on strike.
Even Realmspirit could take a vacation, so why couldn't she have a proper relationship? Bastard!
Without her master, time passed so slowly.
Ting!
A conversation window suddenly appeared in front of her.
Dear, are you still angry that time is too slow? Are you still lamenting about the pain of cultivation? Have you ever regretted your difficult cultivation experiences? Leave it to the time regulator. It will allow you to instantly experience the experience of ten thousand years, and achieve the goal of rapid advancement. Completing cultivation in a second is not a dream, not a dream, not a dream. The important advertisement must be repeated three times! This time regulator is small, convenient, and easy to carry around. Once bound, it will be used for a lifetime. The entire body is traceless, and it can satisfy your various perverted needs. You can even choose your own time dimension when using it now. This opportunity does not come again. Please raise your little paws right now, and quickly confirm!
Option: One hundred years or one thousand years or ten thousand years or random.
Where did this immoral advertisement come from? Do you believe that I will go to the Consumer Association to complain about you!? And what the hell is this time regulator? Is it adjusting time? Have you watched too many sci-fi movies?
Ting!
The ten second countdown for this option will begin. If the target does not have a choice, it will be randomly selected.
7, 6, 5, 4 …
The hell, this is forcing me to buy and sell! Recalling the transvestite option back then, she hurriedly raised her wings and pressed towards the one hundred years option. However, even after pressing a few times, there was no reaction. The number was still counting down.
Are you kidding me? I basically can't choose. This is clearly a scam.
3, 2, 1.
Ting! The time for choosing is up. Next, it will be randomly selected. PS: This option uses the most advanced AI fingerprint recognition program, and is able to recognize any kind of fingerprint. PPS: Friendly reminder, feathers cannot be recognized.
Zhu Yao lowered her head and looked at her own wings. Flips table! Realmspirit, come out!
The scene in front of her flashed, and suddenly, a shaking interface similar to lottery appeared. Five rows of wheels began to rotate.
The first number that appeared was "Zero". Zhu Yao heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she would not be crossing ten thousand years in an instant.
The second number was "Zero" as well. It seemed like at most a hundred years had passed. That's good, that's good.
The third number was "Four". Four hundred years or so. Alright, I can endure it.
The fourth number was "Three". Zhu Yao had a bad premonition.
The fifth number spun a few times, and then, it firmly stopped at the number "Eight".
"…" Zhu Yao instantly felt like taking revenge on society.
She took a deep breath, and let her think of a method to vent her anger.
The hell! Damn bitch, who the hell are you scolding!? You're messing with me, right? If you have the guts, come out. I will send you back to your mother's womb for a deep transformation for free.
Ting!
The scene flashed, and the wheels disappeared. The surrounding scenery, however, began to change like a flashing lantern. As though a fast-forward button had been pressed, different figures shuttled past. It became faster and faster, and not long later, she could only see the colors of flowing lights.
This was the time adjustment?
The flowing lights continued for about half a minute, and then, they began to slow down again. Gradually, she could see human figures. Familiar and unfamiliar people came and went in the house, and Shao Bai's figure was the most common. In the end, it finally stopped.
Four hundred and thirty-eight years had passed just like that?
When she regained her senses, she and Shao Bai were the only two people in the room. He still looked the same, though there was a hint of maturity between his brows. However, he still had a gentle look, as he gently coaxed her. "Little sister, this is very simple. As long as you follow the method I tell you, you will be able to transform immediately."
Transform? Zhu Yao frowned. Suddenly, a large chunk of memories appeared in her mind, related to the past four hundred years. She actually spent four hundred years, and she was still a bird! The only difference was that her size was a little bigger, and her tail feathers had yet to grow out. Though she knew that the lifespan of a God was endless, her growth was a little too slow, wasn't it?
"Be obedient. Haven't you always wanted to change your feathers? Once you transform into a human, you can do so. "Shao Bai was still coaxing her.
The corner of Zhu Yao's lips twitched. What's with this tone that sounded like he was coaxing a child? Thinking about it carefully, those additional memories … Alright, she had indeed lived her life very childish in the past four hundred years.
"Oh, tell me again. How do I transform?" The only thing that made her happy after transmigrating through time was that she could now speak.
Seeing that she had relented, Shao Bai heaved a sigh of relief. He once again told her the method of transformation, and even the method to circulate godly energy, he held onto her claws and demonstrated it.
Zhu Yao carefully sensed it, and realized that this method was similar to the way she transformed into a dragon back then. From the looks of it, she did have some experience.
Thus, she took two steps forward, arrived at a slightly spacious area, took a deep breath, and began to circulate the already thick aura in her body. In an instant, her entire bird body emitted out a red light, enveloping her entirely within it. Slowly, she took the form of a human.
About an hour later, that red light slowly dimmed, revealing a woman dressed in a rainbow-colored feather robe. Zhu Yao moved her arms and legs. That robe moved along with her, as though it was flowing, it looked extremely beautiful.
"How is it?" Zhu Yao could not see her own appearance, so she could only wave her hands at Shao Bai. "Do I look good?"
"Mn, you look good." Shao Bai smiled like the warm sun in winter, and nodded.
Zhu Yao was satisfied. Phoenixes were the most beautiful birds, and she believed that her human form would not be that ugly either. Especially her robe, it should be formed from her feathers. In the past, when she was covered in feathers, she did not think much of it, but now that she had transformed into a robe, it was unexpectedly beautiful.
Zhu Yao pulled up the corner of her robe and lowered her head to look in front of her. She was very satisfied, and then, she turned her head to look behind her.
What she saw was, between the rainbow-colored feathers, two snow-white …
"…"
Mn, it must be a misconception!
Thus, she closed her eyes, and then opened them …
A moment later.
"Ahhh!!!!!" She let out a scream that resounded through the clouds.
Why was her back naked, and it was even at her buttocks area. Were the clothes of the ancient times this fashionable?
Suddenly, she recalled her missing tail feathers.
She had actually been running around with her buttocks bare the entire time!!!
"Little sister!" Shao Bai was shocked by her sudden scream. As he asked. "What's wrong?" His heart ached as he carried her into his embrace, and his line of sight naturally landed on …
"Let me go!" Zhu Yao pushed him away in hindsight, and with her hands behind her back, she held onto the two bare buttocks that were being blown by the wind.
"Little sister …" Shao Bai's face instantly turned as red as blood. She could not move forward, nor could she not move forward.
You saw it, right? You must have seen it, right? Although she did not have much integrity left, she really could not bring herself to run around naked. Don't stop me, I want to die.
"Kuh kuh …" Shao Bai coughed a few times, as he forcefully calmed himself down. However, his face was still burning hot. Reaching out his hand, he chanted an incantation, materializing a long white cloth, and passed it over. "First wrap yourself with this! Your tail feathers have yet to grow out, so with your feathers, it will naturally … Kuh kuh, don't worry, no one else saw it. "
Didn't you see it already?
Zhu Yao grabbed onto that piece of cloth, and wrapped it around her waist. She tied a total of three knots, and only let go after tying it tightly.
Shao Bai sized her up for a moment, and the redness on his face receded. Recalling how she was jumping about earlier, he could not help but turn around, and his shoulders trembled violently.
"If you want to laugh, then laugh!" Zhu Yao glared at him.
"Hahahahaha …" Shao Bai really did not hold back and began to laugh, as he hugged his stomach with one hand.
She had simply forgotten that she did not grow out her tail feathers. Laughing like that, he was not giving her any face at all.
"Is it really that funny?" Zhu Yao instantly gritted her teeth a little, and coldly snorted. "I have seen your buttocks before as well."
Shao Bai was startled. Stopping his laughter, he looked over.
"Not only were your buttocks naked, your entire body was covered in rags back then. I saw everything." Zhu Yao said proudly. "Although you were just a little wimp back then, we're even now."
"Little kid?" Shao Bai's eyes shone for a moment, and a hint of something flashed past his face. Very quickly, it disappeared, and what replaced it was a hint of disappointment. Sighing lightly, he said a moment later. "Little sister, stop spouting nonsense. How could you possibly have seen how I looked like when I was young? You spent two thousand years to come out of the egg. "
"Who's spouting nonsense with you!" Zhu Yao rolled her eyes at him. In any case, it was something that had happened before, so she wasn't afraid of him knowing. "Back then, you were still so young, and I was still in the egg. Oh right, I was the one who brought you out of that damned place. "
He suddenly widened his eyes, and his face was filled with disbelief. "You remember!?"
"Mn." Zhu Yao nodded.
Shao Bai suddenly smiled. In an instant, it was as though a hundred flowers bloomed, and the sky was filled with multicolored light.
— — — —
Zhu Yao was an anomaly among the Phoenixes. Phoenixes were born with the ability to transform, and she was the only Phoenix who managed to successfully transform after four hundred years. This made Zhu Yao, who had always had the support of cheats, and cultivation was completely effortless, depressed. She felt the sour feeling of going from a top student to a bottom student …
And, the first time she transformed, her moral integrity had already fallen to the ground. She really did not have much expectations for her appearance after transforming, to the point that when she saw her face in the mirror for the first time, her jaw had almost dropped from shock.
She wondered if it was because Realmspirit had added all of her beauty value into this avatar after her multiple rebirths. Her appearance in the mirror was simply so beautiful that no one could look straight at her. Every single part of her seemed to have been meticulously drawn out. A little more would be too full, and a little less would be too lacking. It was perfect to the point of perfection.
Zhu Yao instantly felt that the moral integrity that she had lost in the morning had been picked back up. She could not help but sigh at how good the genes of the Phoenixes were.
"Little sister, are you done?" Shao Bai pushed open the door and entered. His smile was filled with gentleness. "It's time for us to leave?"
"To where?" Zhu Yao glanced at him, and then immediately shifted her line of sight back to the mirror. Why was she so beautiful?
"Naturally, to the Terrace of Revelations. Why don't you want to go?" Shao Bai asked.
"I don't!" Zhu Yao raised the mirror in her hands. "Right now, I just want to quietly admire myself for a while."
Shao Bai shook his head. Stepping forward, he took away the mirror in her hands and grabbed onto her hand. His smile grew even gentler. "Little sister, be obedient. After a member of the Phoenixes transforms, they must head to the Terrace of Revelations to receive the inheritance. This concerns your future, so you must go. And, even if little sister doesn't look at the mirror, I'm still the most beautiful Phoenix in this world. "
Zhu Yao glanced at his face which carried a five-star gentle light effect, and then turned to look at herself in the mirror. In an instant, she felt that she had fallen by a few levels. Haah! As expected, she wanted to ruin his face!
"Inheritance?" Zhu Yao pondered for a moment. "Isn't inheritance something that comes with the bloodline, something that's present at birth?"
Shao Bai lightly tapped on her forehead. "Who told you that inheritance comes from the bloodline? No matter if it's the Dragon, Phoenix, or Qilin, if they want to receive the inheritance, they must head to the Terrace of Revelations, and inherit the Heavenly Dao. "
And this procedure, her teacher had never taught her before.
"Second elder brother didn't bring you there before, because you were still too young. I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to endure the power of the Heavenly Dao. "Shao Bai continued to explain." Now that you're able to transform, naturally, you shouldn't delay it any longer. As long as you receive the inheritance, the potential in your body will be stimulated, and at that time, you will be able to know your true attribute. "
"Attribute?" Zhu Yao caught onto a term that she did not understand.
"Little sister, don't you realize that your original form is different from ours?"
"My butt is bare."
"Uh …"
A hint of awkwardness flashed past Shao Bai's face. "I'm not talking about that. Although the Phoenixes are born with the ability to control fire, they still have another inherited attribute. Other than fire, it's one of the five elements, metal, wood, water, and earth. "
"Oh …" She didn't understand! "Then what's your attribute?"
Shao Bai smiled without saying a word. He did not continue to explain either, and pulled Zhu Yao out of the door. Rather than explaining, it would be better to bring her there to take a look.
Zhu Yao did not have any objections, and followed him out of the door. However, she faintly felt that the two words' Terrace of Revelations' sounded a little familiar, yet, she could not recall where she had heard it before.
She thought that the Terrace of Revelations would be very far away, yet, Shao Bai simply brought her and flew towards the top of the gigantic tree. After flying for more than an hour, they had already flown to the top of the gigantic tree that was hidden above the layer of clouds. A white lotus the size of three football fields was floating above, and its petals were flashing with rainbow-colored flowing lights, as it revolved around the lotus at the center.
The lotus platform at the center was already filled with people, and a rough count of over a hundred of them. Zhu Yao was stunned. The entire Phoenix Clan was here. Was this inheritance really that important?
Shao Bai brought her and landed at the very center. Standing in front of them were Qian Yu and seven familiar-looking people. Four men and three women. She flipped through her four hundred years of memories, and only then did she recognize that they were all her cheap brothers and sisters. However, the man next to Old Eight was a little unfamiliar. He was about the same height as Shao Bai, yet, he was not as fair and clean as the others. His skin was a healthy wheat colour, which made him look more masculine than the others. She suddenly had a feeling that she had seen him somewhere before.
Seeing her appear, Old Eight was the first to walk over. In these four hundred years, he had already grown from a little wimp to a teenager. "Bare buttocks, you're here."
Zhu Yao staggered, as she turned to glare at him. As expected, his mouth was still so smelly. It was because of his curse that she was unable to grow out her tail feathers. You're the one with bare buttocks. Your entire family is bare buttocks.
Eh? His entire family seemed to include her!
"Hurry, hurry, accept the inheritance!" Little Eighth however did not sense her resentment in the slightest, as he said with an excited look. "Hurry and accept it. Let me see what kind of bird you are!"
Why did she feel like he was scolding her?
"And what kind of bird are you?"
Little Eighth proudly raised his head, patted on his chest, and said. "My attribute is' wood '. I'm a wooden bird."
"Oh …" Zhu Yao swept a meaningful glance at him, and intentionally paused for a second at a certain spot. "So you have a wooden bird!"
Little Eighth: "…" Although he did not understand, why did he feel like seventh elder sister was scolding him?
"Little Seventh." Qian Yu walked over as well, and patted on Zhu Yao's head. She looked at her with a gratified look. "You finally know how to take on a human form. Mother heaved a sigh of relief as well. Come, you have yet to meet your sixth elder brother. He's here. "She pointed to the wheat-skinned man at the side. "Your sixth elder brother specially rushed back to see your inheritance."
Zhu Yao turned to look at the man at the side. His smile was extremely bashful, yet, it carried a hint of an expression that she could not understand. It looked as though he was excited, but also as though he was feeling guilty. The corner of his lips twitched, and a moment later, he spoke up. "Seventh sister, I …"
"Alright, it's about time." Shao Bai suddenly took a step forward and interrupted his words. Pulling Zhu Yao over, he said. "Little sister, go!" His eyes intentionally or unintentionally glanced at Little Sixth, faintly carrying a hint of warning.
The other party's clear eyes instantly darkened.
Zhu Yao was seemingly being pushed forward, and she felt a little strange about Shao Bai's attitude. After flipping through those fast-forwarded memories, she finally recalled who this sixth elder brother was. Speaking of which, he was the first person she met after her reincarnation. That's right, he was that little wimp who directly pushed her onto the ground, causing her to give birth prematurely.
