498 - The Fourth Layer of the Seal (3)

No one could probably understand the feelings of Shen Yanxiao at this moment.

In such a closed environment, she had been squatting for who knew how many days and nights, eating a lot of medicinal herbs. She had already forgotten the time. And after untold hardships, she finally stood under the sun again.

Unfortunately, before Shen Yanxiao could shed her bitter tears, she found something wrong in the Sun Graveyard.

The day when she was sent to the main palace by the magic array, the Sun Graveyard was a desolate place with heaps of stones everywhere.

Now, however, the disorderly stones were clearly covered in black, which was obviously traces of fire. Surveying every direction, all the stones in the Sun Graveyard were basically in the same situation.

Shen Yanxiao had not analyzed this amazing change yet when the voice belonging to Vermillion Bird impressively bombarded her through spiritual link.

"You're back! You're back! You're back!" Vermillion Bird's voice was with incomparable excitement mixed with… anger.

Without a word, she had thrown some beast aside, ran away without a trace, and become completely out of reach. Shen Yanxiao could almost imagine how violent a certain proud bird had become this period of time.

In fact...

She did not want to go away either, she also wanted to stay…

"Hehe, I'm back." From thousands of words, Shen Yanxiao could only utter one of the most simple words.

"You actually dare to come back!!!" Even through the spiritual link, Vermillion Bird's anger was inexplicably conveyed.

If it was not because Vermillion Bird was out of her sight at this moment, Shen Yanxiao reckoned that the proud bird had already burned her to ashes with his flames.

"It's a long story, where are you right now? I've got the thing, we can now leave." Shen Yanxiao was also very helpless.

"… …" Vermillion Bird did not respond.

"Cough. I'm sorry, this time is not intentional, there will be no next time." Shen Yanxiao felt the fury of Vermillion Bird. What she did this time was indeed inappropriate. Though she was forced into helplessness, leaving Vermillion in the Sun Graveyard alone was really not an act a master should do.

For the first time, Shen Yanxiao apologized to Vermillion Bird.

Because she knew, the reason Vermillion Bird was so angry was because the spiritual link between the magical beast and the master was hard to erase, and only the death of one of them could be the possibility for this situation to have occurred this time.

Vermillion Bird's anger was him worrying about her life.

"...humph! I will not forgive you so easily! Absolutely not!" Vermillion Bird uncomfortably harrumphed, preventing his mouth from muttering what was really in his heart.

"However, seeing you so sincere, I will no longer argue with you."

Shen Yanxiao laughed aloud, Vermillion Bird was the standard of having a sharp tongue but a soft heart.

"I am watching a play, do you want to come see it too?" Vermillion Bird suddenly said.

See… a play?!

Shen Yanxiao was speechless. Vermillion Bird was no matter what a Mythological Beast, was it really fine for him to be so gossipy?

"Where?" Shen Yanxiao silently sighed and decided to pick up this bird who loved to gossip first, then head back to Holy Roland School afterward.

She prayed that the school tryouts had not yet started!

"In the small village we have passed by. You come quickly or you will not see any good show later," Vermillion Bird said and enthusiastically went away.

That village?

Shen Yanxiao slightly raised her eyebrows, consumed a bottle of Acceleration Potion, and swiftly flew toward the exit of the Sun Graveyard.

Soon, she hurried to that strange small village, but everything in sight made her stunned.

That once comfortable and simple small village was now unrecognizable!
