Chapter 154.2
Chapter 154: Source World 6 (part 2 of 2)
Although the fall was slightly embarrassing, but the Little Phoenix is a majestic Little Phoenix. Since it had already fallen down, there was no use to inwardly continue being embarrassed either. On the contrary, it confidently took a step forward, moving more closer to An Ying. The pair of big pale golden eyes stared at the serpent’s head in a serious manner, as if studying a strange treasure, then said afterwards: “Such a weird gigantic black snake!”
The Little Phoenix has been spoiled to the heavens in the Heavenly Realm, which lead it to have an arrogant and squeamish temperament, a straightforward innocence, and to always voice out whatever it wanted to say. It’s appearance is still indistinguishable from male and female because of it’s young age. It’s voice also had a soft and immature distinctive clarity. The innately somber and fierce Soaring Serpent unexpectedly forgot his displeasure for a while, but became stunned because of the Little Phoenix’s voice instead.
He originally thought that the most sounds in the world were the melodious tinkling of silver bells being blown by the wind, the mellow singing voice of a nightingale, and the melodious tune produced by the zither. Only at this moment did he know, that the most melodious sound of the world is the spoken words of the youth in front of him.
Stunned is stunned, and displeasure is also displeasure. Yet at this moment, An Ying completely didn’t have the ability to change into his human form. Moreover, seeing that the Immortal qi on this youth was very pure, he was probably not someone to be trifled with. Thus, he prepared to turn around and run. However, the youth, to his surprise, had unexpectedly extended his hand to him at this time in an extremely daring manner, then poked his hard head with a white and tender finger, and continued to heedlessly harp: “……my adoptive mother raised a nine-tailed civet as a pet, Lord Yao Guang raised a seven-colored parrot, Immortal Meng Xuan raised a snow rabbit, even elder brother Kong Ming has a three-headed dog, — Only I have never had a pet.”
The Little Phoenix puffed his cheeks with slight dissatisfaction, then patted the serpent’s head and made the final decision: “Big snake, I’ve decided to raise you as my pet.”
He casually appointed the other as his pet in this arbitrary manner, and didn’t even ask for the other person’s opinion, which was truly very discourteous. But that dazzlingly bright and moving eyes of the youth, contains a bewitching charm, as well as an innocent and adorable charm. That seemingly heedless speech and act, which it feels is completely proper and should all be accepted by others, as well as that discourteous speech that it spoke with absolute confidence.
However, how could An Ying’s character allow himself to be taken as other people’s pet? That pair of vertical pupils gradually revealed a perceptible ferocity, and also released his body’s murderous aura, making him look especially terrifying. The Soaring Serpent’s archetype is inherently terrifying. An Ying used to scare numerous passing Demon Beast by just relying on his external appearance. Not to mention the gigantic body of the serpent. The entire Little Phoenix wasn’t even as big as a quarter of the serpent’s head. The cold scales and overflowing murderous aura of the snake’s tongue were even more spine-chilling.
But against expectations, the Little Phoenix gave the Soaring Serpent a smile without the slightest bit of fear: “You’re mine from this day onwards. Rest assured, ah. I will take good care of you.”
Not knowing whether it was because of that unparalleled appearance, or the brilliance in the other’s eyes. It could also either be that serious expression, and this smile that can bewitch all the living, beyond words.
The Little Phoenix, who is born with this captivating affection and charm, finally patted the serpent’s head and concluded: “Although you look a little strange, but having such a big snake as a pet must definitely be very prestigious.”
Following which, a golden light shot out from in-between the little hand of the Little Phoenix, which all flowed to the serpent’s body. The Soaring Serpent immediately roared and struggled with all his might. It’s a pity that his injuries were really so bad. The serpent’s gigantic tail swept across the trees in the forest, causing the middle part of the tree to break down one after the other. But still failed to escape that closely following golden light.
Contrary to the Soaring Serpent’s expectation, this beam of golden light wasn’t harmful at all. It merely shrank his body to the size of a normal beasts of the field and the birds of the air, and began to magically heal all his injuries as well. The instant after the serpent had shrunk, the Little Phoenix held the other’s head in his arms, and lightly stroked the other’s nape while saying in comfort: “Don’t be afraid. I won’t hurt you.”
The Soaring Serpent immediately stiffened, and only felt that soft and warm touch with a fragrant scent along his neck, spread all over his body. An unspeakable sensation subsequently seeped into his heart, causing all the scales at his back to slightly bristle.
He could have broken free from the youth’s hold, but he continued to remain still in the other’s arms instead. The Soaring Serpent is naturally gloomy, fierce, and vengeful, and will indiscriminately bring destruction under fierce pressure if worst comes to worst. No one in this world can force him to do anything. However, he had clearly been backed in the corner without any way out at this moment. But not only did he not feel any resentment towards the ‘hunter’, he was even willing to put himself in a platter.
“You can fly with your wings, right? Carry me on your back, I don’t want to go cloud riding again.” Speaking of cloud riding, the Little Phoenix puffed his slightly chubby cheeks again, looking like a little steamed bun, “……I almost fell down just now.”
An Ying subconsciously nodded against expectation. The Little Phoenix immediately climbed onto his back while still holding onto his neck, then leaned forward there, and clung on the serpent’s body with his arms and legs. The warm and soft touch with fragrant scent flowed to every scale of the serpent.
The Soaring Serpent instantly fell into a brief trance. It grew up in the Demon Realm’s forest ever since it can remember, and can describe all the scenery in this forest with closed eyes. Even the luxuriant foliage in summer also reveals the silence of waiting, like the dark green seafloor of the ocean, beyond the sunlight’s reach. It is midwinter now, the leafless trees seemed to look even lonelier and bleaker.
But at this moment, the forest was suddenly swept by a different type of red, which is faintly similar to fire, and seemed to be set aglow.
At that time, An Ying was still completely unaware that his heart had been set aglow, and was also unaware that he had inexplicably become someone else’s pet. That ‘little hunter’ simply took him in his arms gently, and it willingly got caught.
The Little Phoenix’s residence is very easy to spot. In the vast sea of clouds in the Heavenly Realm, the glorious cornices of the golden walls of Qi Chen Palace could be seen from the distance. Upon walking in, one can see layers of auspicious clouds, with three eaves and four clusters*, and the winding Immortal qi, which were so magnificent that people dare not look. The color and materials were even brighter and radiantly luminous. Anyone seeing this for the first time, will be completely blinded by that gold’s radiance.
