Is It Fine to be Tsundere Like This? (3)

2"You have me here, right? Here, if you are bored, you can play with the Little Phoenix." Vermilion Bird's mood was the opposite of Shen Yanxiao's. Vermilion Bird was in ecstasy since he could enjoy the company of his master all by himself without any rivals to split her attention.

Vermilion Bird earnestly wished that those people would continue their odd behaviour so that they would not come and snatch his master away!

Vermilion Bird carried the Little Phoenix to Shen Yanxiao. She used a finger and poked on its round belly. She could not stop herself from enjoying the softy and feathery touch.

"Chu~" Pleased, Little Phoenix squinted its eyes in comfort. Currently, Little Phoenix did not look like a Phoenix, but a hamster when it acted all cute like this.

Recently, Little Phoenix was fed well. The fluffy fine hair had vanished. Tiny and soft feathers covered up Little Phoenix, making it all the more adorable.

"Never mind." Shen Yanxiao sighed. A depressive mood was not a mood suitable for her. She stood up and went back to her room.

Ever since she came to the Forsaken Land, she had little time to cultivate her battle aura and magical powers. Both were still at the same level as when she participated in the Inter-academy Tournament.

She sat with her legs crossed on the bed. Shen Yanxiao took a deep breath, focused her mind, and entered her heart's lake.

In the tranquil heart's lake, she found a tall and slender figure standing there.

"Xiu, how long will it be before you can unlock the next level of seal for me?" Shen Yanxiao looked at the breathtakingly handsome Xiu and tilted her head in question.

"Two months, at most," Xiu said slowly. His voice was so cold, and yet Shen Yanxiao felt warmth.

"Two months? That will be about the same time when Sun Never Sets will be finished. This is a double blessing." Shen Yanxiao nodded, chuckling.

"I guess so," Xiu said.

"Then I must not loaf around any longer. I must use this time to catch up on my cultivation of battle aura and magical powers. Otherwise, unlocking the seal will not be effective when my strength has not improved." Shen Yanxiao knew that she had devoted a lot of energy, maybe even too much, into building Sun Never Sets. She had the eight mythical beasts with her but the world was vast and boundless. She could not guarantee that there would be no other powerful enemies lying about. Only by enhancing her strength could she be prepared to prevent such misfortune.

"Yes," Xiu replied gently.

Shen Yanxiao said nothing more and focused her entire mind on cultivation.

When she began cultivating, there was something she did not know.

Xiu stood in her heart's lake, pacing around the reflection of Shen Yanxiao.

Once, he thought that his host was born to be a good-for-nothing. At that point, he almost gave up on his recovery. However, overnight, Shen Yanxiao experienced a drastic change. She developed herself to her current state from a foolish loser that was despised by all. That in and of itself was stunning.

Shen Yanxiao was like a seed buried in the soil. Xiu witnessed how she was growing under the sunlight. He used his strength as water to irrigate her, helping her step towards the peak.

Looking at the delicate face of the reflection, Xiu's cold eyes were covered by a glow.

To him, a human's appearnce was all the same. Whether they were beautiful or ugly, at the end of the day, they were just odd clumps of similar features to him.

He had been looking at Shen Yanxiao for a long time, a human that he had been in contact with for a long time. But her face represented more than an odd clump of features. To him, these distinct features had a name, Shen Yanxiao.

A girl that was growing up bit by bit before his eyes.
