Chapter 1825: The Golden Phoenix in Shock
The message jade pendant was expensive in the Human Realm Upon Heavens. It worked best among all message tools. As long as Ye Xiao cracked the jade pendant, he could have a live communication with the Golden Phoenix King. It was a shame that the jade pendant was a one-time thing. After the communication, the jade pendant was gone. Ye Xiao only had one piece, so he must use it wisely.
When the Golden Phoenix King and the Purple Dragon King came last time, they didn’t bring many of the message jade pendants.
It was quite famous as an expensive tool in history. Ye Xiao decided to use it anyway because he really had to know whether the two kids were in a good situation or not. He didn’t want the two babies to suffer only because of the great talent they were born with...
As a matter of fact, Ye Xiao was anxious like hell because the dragon and the phoenix were abnormal...
After all, he was the father of the two kids. He had gotten serious about it!
...
The Golden Phoenix King had come to the Monarch’s hall with anger and left with happiness. After she left the Monarch’s Hall, she had been waiting for Ye Xiao’s message. She had left her child to Ye Xiao for the child’s future, but... She missed her baby. It was reasonable.
Because she missed the child so much, she looked languish.
She became anxious recently.
After all, the eggs should have hatched. It had been one full year!
In fact, the eggs should hatch six months earlier. However, she didn’t get the message from Ye Xiao. She was concerned, and she was suffering.
She wanted to go to the Monarch’s Hall and asked Ye Xiao, but it was too far away after all. She would have to travel across two Sky Kings’ territories. After all, the Limitless Ocean was different. The Heaven’s Leaf had returned to the world, and it was pointing at the Limitless Ocean. She didn’t want to do anything reckless...
She was the leader of a clan, so she had her responsibilities as the leader. She went to hunt Chihuo with the Purple Dragon King, and that was already a mistake because it wasted her too much time. There were many things she had to finish before leaving the clan again. That was why she had been suppressing her emotion in her heart. In fact, never there was a day she didn’t blame Ye Xiao for not contacting her!
‘Bastard! What happens to my child? You should have sent a message to me earlier...’
‘Why can’t you care for a parent’s concern?’
‘We trusted you!’
After that, the Hall of Returning Nature and the Monarch’s Hall had a war. Ye Xiao had gone missing. The Golden Phoenix King was more anxious.
When she got the news about the victory of the Monarch’s Hall, she took a breath of relief. Others had brought up the problem of Ye Xiao commanding a lot of beasts to fight the war, but the Golden Phoenix King and the Purple Dragon King forbade their people to talk about it anymore.
‘He can command the beasts because he is good. It has nothing to do with you. Yes, the beasts haven’t been seen for ages, but it doesn’t mean they can’t return to the world. The Heaven’s Leaf has been missing for a long time, and hasn’t it come back to the world now?’
‘Extinct? What should we blame Ye Xiao for?’
‘Ye Xiao brings back the extinct species to the world. So many new beasts are going to join us now. Isn’t it great? Calm down. Don’t make a fuss. Ye Xiao should be treated as our savior!’
The Golden Phoenix King and the Purple Dragon King together made an invincible force in the Glaze Sky. Nobody dared to do anything to Ye Xiao.
‘The two kings always love their clans more than anything else. How come they don’t seem the same now?’
‘It doesn’t make sense!’
The leader of the Glaze Sky was confused.
The two kings couldn’t care less about him though.
As long as their children could have a bright life, nothing else mattered. Ye Xiao was closest to the children, so he was closest to the two kings too. The two clans would never stand with other humans against Ye Xiao!
It would be a joke if they did!
The Golden Phoenix King was in her palace, holding the jade pendant in her hand. She frowned. She was thinking maybe she should crack the jade pendant to contact Ye Xiao.
At this moment.
The jade pendant broke in her hand!
After that, something rose up from the broken jade pendant.
The Golden Phoenix King stood up and said, “Ye Xiao? Monarch Ye? Is that you?”
She was anxious like hell. ‘What if the peasant doesn’t know how to use the jade pendant? If I don’t say something, and if he doesn’t talk back to me, the communication will be shut down automatically...’
As the jade pendant broke, the Golden Phoenix King started talking without a stop... She had to let Ye Xiao hear her voice and make him talk back.
“Ye Xiao? Doctor? What is it? I am the Golden Phoenix King... Talk to me! How is my child? Has the egg hatched? What is the situation? Talk to me! We need to build up a stable communication now...”
The Golden Phoenix King kept asking questions.
Ye Xiao just broke the jade pendant, and then he heard the voice. It was his first time, so he was surprised. ‘Why is she so anxious?’
‘I blinked my eyes, and dozens of questions were asked... How am I going to answer them? Come on... I am the Lord Monarch of the Monarch’s Hall. I do know how to use this jade pendant. Don’t you underestimate me!’
“Ahem... It... It is me. Ye Xiao.” Ye Xiao said.
It was his first time to talk to somebody while he was actually talking to nothing...
The Golden Phoenix King wasn’t wrong. It was reasonable!
The Golden Phoenix King took a breath of relief.
‘The erhuo heard me... Such a relief.’
(Erhuo’s off-screen voice: “Come on... How many times? Erhuo is the most beautiful word in the world. Don’t you use it like it was an abusive word! D*mn you all!”)
“Does it hatch?” The Golden Phoenix King sounded nervous.
“They did... Ahem... They were born earlier today. That is why I contact you...” Ye Xiao said.
“Today? How come?” The Golden Phoenix King felt wrong. She said, “According to the date, they should have been out for quite some days. Why so late? Ye Xiao, what is wrong? Did you do anything?”
She sounded fierce!
Ye Xiao wasn’t surprised. He sighed and said, “Your majesty, they didn’t get any problem while hatching... They are lively.”
The Golden Phoenix King felt relieved and smiled. She said, “That’s good. Now, is it a boy or a girl?”
Ye Xiao thought, ‘You mean male or female...’ He said, “It is a girl. Beautiful and clever. She’s talented.”
The Golden Phoenix King smiled gently. “Good. Ye Xiao, thank you for your help. When we meet next time, I will thank you properly...”
The Golden Phoenix King was talking with formalities.
Ye Xiao felt awkward. He hesitated in speech. “It has come out... It is healthy and clever... But...”
“But what?” The Golden Phoenix King sensed the smell of trouble. ‘He contacts me because there is a problem... I shouldn’t have left my kid to him... Is my child going to have a miserable future instead of now?’
“There is something abnormal about the kid. It is different from what I heard...” Ye Xiao hesitated. “Well... I... I don’t understand...”
“What is it?” The Golden Phoenix King said, “What is abnormal about her? What is wrong?”
“It is... You know... The Crown of Phoenix... It...” Ye Xiao didn’t know how to say it.
“I see.” The Golden Phoenix King smiled bitterly. “She has less than three feathers, right?”
‘Oh. The kid should have died in the egg. Now she is healthy. I won’t ask more. I won’t blame Ye Xiao. I can accept that my child has less than three feathers in the Crown of Phoenix.’
‘That old man should be blamed!’
The Golden Phoenix King was upset. Ye Xiao talked again, and what he said astonished the Golden Phoenix King...
“The feathers... Yes. She has more than three feathers.” Ye Xiao said, “She doesn’t have less than three, but more than three... Much more...”
The surprise nearly shook the Golden Phoenix King’s heart into an explosion. “More? That’s good! That’s great... Listen, Monarch Ye. It is normal. It is reasonable that you don’t know about the Crown of Phoenix... Phoenix can connect the sky and the earth, use all kinds of elements in the world. The ancestor of our kind has the five spiritual lights and the Yin qi and Yang qi. Some believed that she was the masterpiece of gods. However, after her, phoenixes mostly have only one attribution. In fact, over half of us only have fire attribution. The truth is, the more elements we can use, the more powerful we are. It is a gift. We are born with the limitation and the potential. The Netherworld Phoenix had five feathers, so she has more potential than others...”
Ye Xiao didn’t know what to say.
‘I know! Who says I don’t?’
The Golden Phoenix King talked a lot, and then she said, “I guess my child has four feathers. Am I right?”
“Well, she has more...” Ye Xiao said. ‘If she only has four, I won’t worry about it, will I?’
The Golden Phoenix King was shocked. She asked, “Does she have five?”
‘I was born with four... Is my child even better than her mother?’
‘If she has five, she almost has the potential as the legendary Netherworld Phoenix! She will be able to reach the Infinity Stage!’
“Well... No, she doesn’t have five!” Ye Xiao said.
The Golden Phoenix King froze.
‘Not three, not four, not five...’
‘What is this?’
The Golden Phoenix King asked with a shaking voice, “Does she have seven?”
‘According to a story, the phoenix could have five spiritual lights and Yin Qi and Yang Qi. That means a phoenix can have seven feathers... This is crazy, but it is possible...’
‘What if my daughter has seven feathers?’
The Golden Phoenix King skipped six and directly said seven. The Golden Phoenix King believed seven was the top. No phoenix could have more than that!
Ye Xiao said, “No... She has more than seven...”
The Golden Phoenix King was scared. Seven feathers were the most. She said, “Just tell me how many, will you?”
Ye Xiao coughed and said, “Well... I don’t know if it is a good thing... She has quite a lot...”
“How many? Can you just say it? Why hesitate?” The Golden Phoenix King shouted.
The Phoenix Place was shaking because she talked so loudly.
“Ahem... Nine...” Ye Xiao said, “That’s crazy. I never knew a phoenix could have nine feathers. It is more than any other phoenix. She has nine. I have never heard of this... Isn’t it abnormal?”
The Golden Phoenix King didn’t respond.
It seemed she was gone.
Ye Xiao knew it would shock her, so he said, “This is the situation. I checked all the books I have... Still, I don’t know what this is about... How come she has nine feathers? You mentioned seven. Why? Does the best of your kind only have seven feathers? Well, the kid only has two more. That’s not so unreasonable. Look. The middle one of the nine feathers is the longest. Four more on the right, which are shorter, while four more on the left, which are shorter too... Anyway, that is it. Is it a bad sign? It looks pretty though...”
Ye Xiao was anxious, and he tried to make it sound good.
The Golden Phoenix King didn’t make a sound!
It seemed she had left...
Ye Xiao said, “Your majesty? Hello? Are you there? What is going on? Are you okay? Talk to me... Say something... Come on... What is wrong? Where are you? D*mn...”
He kept talking to the phoenix but got no response. It was silence.
He freaked out. “Phoenix! D*mn you... Say something... She is not only your daughter but also mine! You... Are you deaf? Come on! I will still love her even if she is sick! I don’t care! Say something!”
Something was shaking in the air and then disappeared.
The communication channel was shut down. It was a high-level communication tool, but it couldn’t last forever!
Ye Xiao looked so angry. He hit the table and broke it into pieces. “Damn it! She is mad! Why did she stop talking all of a sudden? F*ck! What the hell is wrong? She should tell me something! I am not one of her kind! How am I supposed to know what is wrong with the child? F*ck! It wastes my f*cking time... F*ck!”
He was so angry, and couldn’t stop talking abusive words.
‘We were just talking... then she just stopped...’
‘She told me nothing...’
He was so angry about it!
‘What the hell is going on?’
‘Did she just ignore me? Did she neglect me? How could she?’
“This is wrong! How is she the leader of such a great clan?” Ye Xiao said with a sigh, “She doesn’t even care about her own child. She just left after hearing the situation of the child... She’s a lousy mother... How is she going to take care of my baby phoenix? She can only count on me... She is lucky that she didn’t need to stay with her mother... Poor kid...”
He sighed for a while and took out the dragon jade pendant.
‘The Golden Phoenix King is a lousy parent. I hope the Purple Dragon King is different!’
Ye Xiao looked forward to talking to the Purple Dragon King...
...
He didn’t know what really happened. After he said nine, the Golden Phoenix King passed out because she was astonished!
She didn’t hear what Ye Xiao said afterward!
‘Nine feathers of the Crown of Phoenix?’
Ye Xiao didn’t know what it meant. He learned a lot of things, but the phoenix clan was a mystery. Ye Xiao didn’t know.
The Golden Phoenix King knew everything!
It was the Supreme Phoenix Crown!
