"Ladies and gentlen, the show’s over, disperse please!"
Sensing the peculiar looks of those around him, Yun Xiao swept his gaze around the group and then spoke, prompting the spectators to finally snap out of it and slowly disperse.
After all, these people were here at ridian Spirit trading street to select a ridian Spirit suitable for themselves; watching the commotion was just a side issue. No matter what, it was just Yun Xiao’s mont in the lilight.
However, as so people left, they couldn’t help but cast several involuntary glances at the old hen held in Yun Xiao’s arms, as if deep in thought.
"My brother, you see..."
After the crowd had gone, a voice suddenly reached Yun Xiao’s ears. Without looking, he knew it was Wu Lin; at this mont, this young man was his last lifeline.
At this ti, Wu Lin really feared retribution from Yun Xiao. After all, he had backpedaled monts ago, willing to sell out Yun Xiao for the allure of a low-level Earth Rank Qi Breaking Pill, which was quite dishonest.
"Oh, are you talking about the fruit without an infant?"
Yun Xiao turned around, as if recalling sothing, and said, "Actually, those reactions in your body just now were rely so remnants of the fruit without an infant. You’ll be fine after two days of rest!"
To this opportunistic villain, Yun Xiao naturally felt no fondness. The words he spoke caused so people who hadn’t walked far to stagger, nearly falling to the ground.
Seeing how Yun Xiao had sworn so convincingly earlier, frightening Wu Lin to the point where he even dared not accept the Earth Rank low-level Elixir, Qi Breaking Pill, who would have thought it was just a bluff? But how did he manage such a convincing performance?
Could this kid have been an actor in the past? Setting aside Wu Lin and Xu Huan, the main parties involved, the saying that the bystanders see things clearer was not exemplified among these onlookers. Everyone had been deceived.
In Wu Lin’s heart, there was naturally a feeling of helplessness and a wry smile. In fact, earlier, even if he had doubts, he dared not gamble with his own life. It must be said that this youngster’s mind was too tricky to guard against.
"Rember, eat more things that greatly replenish your vitality!"
Yun Xiao was completely unconcerned with the thoughts of Wu Lin and the bystanders. After saying his final piece, he nodded towards Lin Xuanhao and then carried the old hen, walking straight towards the outskirts of the trading street.
"Big Brother Yun Xiao, we’ve offended Xu Huan, is that really not a problem?"
Lin Xuanhao, following Yun Xiao out of the trading street, still showed a trace of worry on his face. After all, for their small family, a branch of Yuyang City’s Douling Comrce was already a colossal entity.
"Don’t worry, that guy has a special status. At least before the Spirit Fighting Conference starts, he dares not make a move!"
Yun Xiao had already contemplated this issue and replied imdiately. Then he glanced towards a few directions by the street’s entrance and asked, "Your Lin Family should have a place to stay in Yuyang City, right?"
Seeing that night was approaching and that there were still a few days left until the Spirit Fighting Conference, they needed to find a place to stay first. Besides, Yun Xiao wanted to study the old hen he had acquired.
"Follow !"
The worry remained in Lin Xuanhao’s eyes, but in the next mont, he composed himself and led Yun Xiao to the Lin Family’s residence in Yuyang City.
The Lin Family, after all, was one of the two big families of Yujiang City, and Yuyang City was the nearest large city to Yujiang City, so the Lin Family frequented it quite a bit, and naturally, they needed a foothold over ti.
The Lin Family’s accommodation was a loft in the midst of a bustling market, which all the more reassured Yun Xiao. In such a crowded place, Xu Huan would have to think twice before making a move against him.
The Cultivators of the Lin Family stationed here greeted Lin Xuanhao with the utmost respect when they saw the young master himself. After a satisfying al, the two weary travelers retired to their own rooms.
.....
"Cluck cluck cluck!"
Inside Yun Xiao’s room, sounds of the old hen kept erging, coming from the old hen bought at the trading street, which seed sowhat bizarre.
The old hen put on the floor by Yun Xiao seed a little unsure of what to do. Eyes locked with its owner’s, they stared for a long while without speaking. If outsiders were to see this, they might even think Yun Xiao had gone crazy.
"I say, doesn’t this creature look just like an ordinary old hen? Could it be that if slaughtered and stewed, its soup would be exceptionally nourishing?"
After observing for a while with no insights, Yun Xiao suddenly entertained a thought. However, his words elicited no reaction from the old hen, which did not act like a ridian Spirit capable of understanding human speech.
"Tsk tsk, the natives of Nine-layered Dragon Cloud really don’t recognize treasure even amidst a mountain of gold!"
Right after Yun Xiao’s words fell, his right hand moved slightly, and a flash of golden light erged. It turned out that the Golden Snake Worm had scurried out on its own, and the transmitted words carried a special significance.
"Stop beating around the bush, what’s so extraordinary about this old hen?"
Yun Xiao was not particularly troubled by the situation; he was fully aware that anything valued so highly by the self-proclaid Five-Clawed Golden Dragon was no ordinary hen, and could even be the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix, as Wu Lin had ntioned.
"Actually, it is indeed just an ordinary old hen!"
Just as Yun Xiao was filled with anticipation, the Golden Snake Worm sent him this thought, which almost set him off. At this mont, he started to believe the Golden Snake Worm was mocking him.
After all the effort equivalent to the strength of nine bulls and two tigers, and even at the cost of offending Xu Huan, the young master of the Spirit Fighting Comrce, he had acquired this hen. And now, you’re telling it’s really just an ordinary old hen? Am I supposed to stew it for soup?
"Ah, young people are just so impatient!"
Seeing Yun Xiao’s frantic state, the Golden Snake Worm’s head shook slightly, and a hint of anthropomorphic ridicule appeared in its eyes. This response nearly caused Yun Xiao to lose his composure again.
"If you keep beating around the bush, do you believe I’ll let Little Dragon co out and deal with you?"
Yun Xiao, with rising anger, fiercely threatened the Golden Snake Worm, which shuddered a little and then dared not beat around the bush any longer.
It goes to show that Dragon Guiding Tree Spirit is indeed the Achilles heel of the Golden Snake Worm. Anyti Little Dragon is involved in any matter, it imdiately concedes, and this ti was no exception.
"Although this hen is just an ordinary old hen, there is a peculiar aura about the egg inside of it, and moreover, this aura gives a faint sense of familiarity!"
The Golden Snake Worm did not hold back this ti. Upon hearing this, Yun Xiao’s attention had already shifted to the back end of the old hen, his gaze fixated unwaveringly on a particular spot.
"An egg in the butt?"
Yun Xiao knew that hens lay eggs, but could an egg laid by an ordinary old hen be different in so way?
"But... how can I make it lay the egg?"
Even if Yun Xiao is the reincarnation of the Nine-layered Dragon Cloud, he had no clue about this hen’s egg-laying process, which left him quite perplexed for the mont.
Swoosh!
The next mont, Yun Xiao’s eyes shone with golden light, and the sa golden light erged from the Golden Snake Worm, instantly entering the old hen’s body and seemingly wrapping it in a faint golden glow.
"You sneaky thing, you even know how to make hens lay eggs?"
Seeing what was happening, Yun Xiao guessed what the Golden Snake Worm was up to. An incredulous expression appeared on his face, as this was a skill he did not possess.
"Making hens lay eggs is a rooster’s job, I’m just speeding up the process for this hen to lay the egg sooner!" the Golden Snake Worm replied irritably. It knew that if the egg inside the hen did not possess a special aura, its golden light would not be effective at all.
Plop!
As the man and the snake conversed, Yun Xiao heard a soft sound, and then a fiery-red round object rolled out from the hen’s backside.
"Oh no, not good!"
Yun Xiao was taken aback and turned pale. Freshly laid eggs were extrely fragile, and he feared that the impact on the ground might shatter the shell entirely.
"Why make such a fuss? Could the ’Heavenly Phoenix Egg’ be so easily broken?"
Just as Yun Xiao stepped forward to check if the egg was cracked, the voice of the Golden Snake Worm tily conveyed so implied information that brightened Yun Xiao’s eyes instantly.
"What did you say? Heavenly Phoenix Egg?"
From these four words, Yun Xiao gathered a lot of information, and he believed that when the fiery-red egg rolled out, the Golden Snake Worm must have already confird its suspicions from its aura.
"Really, should I say you have good luck or are truly blessed? You’ve just entered the Tenglong Continent and already obtained a Heavenly Phoenix Egg!"
The Golden Snake Worm did not respond to Yun Xiao’s mutterings but sighed again, indirectly addressing the latter’s doubts.
During the day at the ridian Spirit trade street, the shop owner Wu Lin claid that the old hen was an exotic breed of the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix. At that ti, including Yun Xiao, everyone thought it was just a sales pitch, a ruse to raise the hen’s value.
It turns out it truly was an authentic ordinary old hen, but the egg it carried was extraordinary. If it indeed was an Ancient Heavenly Phoenix Egg, wouldn’t it indirectly confirm Wu Lin’s claim?
It was unimaginable to Yun Xiao that an utterly ordinary old hen could be related to the Ancient Heavenly Phoenix.
But at this mont, looking at the fiery-red egg, even if he remained skeptical, a strange anticipation crept into his heart—as if this was another stroke of imnse fortune for him.
