Chapter 498: 498
Few people could empathize with Shen Yanxiao at that moment .
Shen Yanxiao had been in an enclosed environment, so she had no idea how many days and nights had passed . She swallowed so many medicinal herbs that she lost track of the number . She had forgotten about time as she went through innumerable trials and hardships . Finally, she could feel the sun again .
Before she could wipe away her bitter tears, she noticed something off about the Graveyard of the Sun .
When the magical array teleported her to the main hall, the Graveyard of the Sun was a desolate place with rubbles everywhere .
However, the rubbles seemed charred, a clear indication that someone had set fire on them . She looked around and noticed that all the rocks around the entire Graveyard of the Sun were in similar condition .
Before Shen Yanxiao could conclude her findings, she heard the Vermilion Bird through their spiritual link .
“You are back! You are back! It is you!” The Vermilion Bird’s voice carried thrill and… fury .
Shen Yanxiao had abandoned her mythical beast without a word and vanished without a trace . He could not contact her at all . She imagined that the arrogant little bird must have gone ballistic during that period .
As a matter of fact…
She did not want to go . She wanted to stay…
“Well, I am back . ” Thousands of words were condensed into the simplest reply .
“How dare you come back!!!” Even if it were only the spiritual link, the Vermilion Bird’s indignation was evident .
If it were not for the fact that the Vermilion Bird was not with her then, Shen Yanxiao supposed that the proud little bird would have burned her into ashes .
“It’s a long story . Where are you? I have got the flower . We can go now . ” Shen Yanxiao felt that she was not at fault; she was not in control of what had happened .
Vermilion Bird was speechless .
“Well, I am sorry . I didn’t mean it . It won’t happen again . ” Shen Yanxiao felt Vermilion Bird’s anger . Even though she did not choose to do that, it was still partly her fault . No master should leave the Vermilion Bird in the Graveyard of the Sun .
That was the first time that Shen Yanxiao had apologized to the Vermilion Bird .
She knew why the Vermilion Bird was furious . The link between a magical beast and the master was a permanent one . Only the death of one party could have led to something that devastating .
The Vermilion Bird’s anger stemmed from his fear for her life and safety .
“Hmm! I will not forgive you so easily! Never!” The Vermilion Bird snorted and mumbled, but he did not feel the same .
“But, since you are so sincere, I will not make a fuss about it . ”
Shen Yanxiao chuckled . The Vermilion Bird was a textbook example of how one’s bark was worse than one’s bite .
“I am enjoying a little show here . Do you want to watch?” The Vermilion Bird suddenly proposed .
A… show?!
Shen Yanxiao was speechless . The Vermilion Bird was a mythical beast, was it appropriate for it to be so nosy?
“Where?” Shen Yanxiao sighed to herself . She decided to get that gossipy little bird before she had to hurry back to the Saint Laurent Academy .
She prayed that the inter-academy tournament had not started yet!
“The village that we passed by on our way here . Hurry up! You will miss the finale if you are late . ” Vermilion Bird urged her .
That village?
Shen Yanxiao raised her eyebrows . She drank a bottle of speed potion and dashed toward the entrance to the Graveyard of the Sun .
Soon, she made her way back to that odd village . The scene that she saw had stunned her .
That once quiet and simple village was beyond all recognition!
