Chapter 571 The Elder Doesn't Want to Take Care of the Child 13
A gentle breeze rustled the leaves as Nan Yu focused on treating Lei Shi's wounds. Wherever the green light from his palm touched, the wounds slowly healed.
Lei Shi's pained expression relaxed slightly, and he stretched his brows and eyes as if enjoying himself. Suddenly, Nan Yu stopped what he was doing, carefully sensing the gradually increasing aura around him, and a look of doubt flashed across his handsome face.
“Xi Yan?” He turned his head and met Zhao Zhao’s bright green eyes.
How did Xi Yan's presence appear in this place?
Soon after, Zhao Zhao also sensed that familiar aura, along with the aura of a familiar cub.
The first sound that came through the hazy darkness was the loud cry of a cub.
Nan Yu paused in his movements, his brows furrowing: "How did Yue and Xiyan end up here?"
Zhao Zhao shook her head. Since Yue had left the Phoenix Clan, Ye should have come out as well. A bad feeling flashed through her mind.
"Don't cry, this isn't the place I brought you to find your Zhaozhao."
A listless, languid voice drifted from not far behind. Zhao Zhao turned around and met Xi Yan's gaze as he stepped out of the jungle carrying a cub. For a moment, the air seemed to freeze.
"Brother Zhao Zhao~"
In the end, it was Yue, who was in Xi Yan's arms, who spoke first, excitedly about to jump off the ground.
Xi Yan clung to him tightly, afraid that he would let go like before. Yue turned her head away, her tearful eyes filled with resentment.
"What are you doing here?" Zhao Zhao frowned and stepped forward, her cold gaze sweeping over Yue, whose cheeks were streaked with tears, and asked, "Where is Ye?"
Xi Yan chuckled, but her smile seemed a little guilty: "Hehe, let me explain..."
Yue faced him openly, seemingly unable to understand what they were saying, her lovely face full of innocence.
Facing those pure and indifferent emerald eyes, Xi Yan sighed, then looked at Nan Yu, who was waiting for an explanation with Zhao Zhao: "By the way, you gave this teleporter to the young master, didn't you?"
In his hand, he held up a jet-black disc, engraved with ancient runes; it was clearly no ordinary object.
Zhao Zhao looked at Nan Yu, whose eyes widened. He slapped his forehead and exclaimed, "I gave it to them!" It was a birthday gift he had given to the two young masters.
The teleporter can teleport people or objects to any location within a hundred miles, regardless of any obstacles, making it a very powerful auxiliary weapon.
Xi Yan gently rubbed Yue, who was squirming in his arms, and said helplessly, "Not long ago, Yue and Ye used this device to teleport away from the Phoenix Clan while I wasn't paying attention. I noticed something was wrong and immediately chased after them. However, I have only found Yue in the Lingze Forest so far."
At that time, the little golden-red fire phoenix was trying its best to flap its wings to shake him off, but it was no match for him in speed and was soon caught up and imprisoned in the claws of the tall purple phoenix.
The cubs were also sensible; knowing they couldn't escape, they started crying and demanding to find Zhaozhao, without mentioning a word about Ye's whereabouts, which Xiyan had inquired about.
Xi Yan couldn't find Ye's presence in the Lingze Forest. With no other option, in order to keep Yue calm, he had to go find Zhao Zhao first.
"Ye's aura has disappeared." Xi Yan's expression was not good.
Zhao Zhao looked down and found that Yue was still smiling. He blinked and his childish voice sounded very innocent: "My brother and I separated after that, so I don't know where he went."
"How could this happen?" Nan Yu gave the powerful teleportation device to the young master with the intention of protecting him. He never expected that the two young masters, whose minds were still pure, would use it to escape from the Phoenix Clan.
Thinking of the missing young master, Nan Yu was extremely anxious.
Xi Yan handed Yue to Zhao Zhao and then threw the teleporter back to Nan Yu: "This thing must not be touched by the young master until he comes of age."
Nan Yu lowered his head and nodded dejectedly. This time, he had done more harm than good.
Xi Yan then arranged, "Zhao Zhao will escort Young Master Yue back to the Phoenix Clan, while Nan Yu and I will search for Young Master Ye in the Lingze Forest."
Zhao Zhao nodded silently, and Yue also stayed obediently in the boy's cold embrace, unusually well-behaved.
Lei Shi, who had been ignored by them all along, weakly spoke up: "Hey, me—are you still going to treat me?"
Xi Yan's attention was drawn to him, and she looked down at the wounds on his body. She frowned immediately after just one glance: "The aura of a dragon?"
"How could he have offended the Dragon Clan?" The Dragon Clan has tempered its temperament a lot in the last hundred years and never provokes other creatures. Therefore, Xi Yan was as surprised as Nan Yu was not long ago.
At this moment, Zhao Zhao, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped and asked the question that had been on her mind: "Lei Shi, you said you encountered a hot-tempered cub before?"
Nan Yu immediately thought of something and said, "Yes, yes, tell me more carefully about the specific characteristics of the cub!"
Lei Shi was so intimidated by Xi Yan's terrifying aura that he was even breathing cautiously. When he heard their questions, his head was spinning, and he couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time.
Nan Yu was about to rush forward excitedly, but Zhao Zhao pulled him back and calmly asked, "Does that cub have red hair?"
Lei Shi said slowly, "It doesn't seem so... That brat is all in black, and his temper is as fiery as a stinky crow..."
Nan Yu's eyes lit up, and he excitedly met Zhao Zhao's gaze. Zhao Zhao then asked, "According to you, that wretched little cub must be extremely unpleasant-looking? Annoying?"
As Xi Yan's oppressive aura dissipated, Lei Shi's mind became completely clear, and he regained some strength thanks to Nan Yu's previous healing.
Thinking of the previous frustrating incident, he immediately roared, "Appearance? That brat looks like a beautifully sculpted doll, very deceptive. I was initially deceived by his appearance and only saved him because I felt sorry for him. Otherwise, I wouldn't have bothered doing a good deed!!!"
He looked up and saw Yue, who had a cold expression, in Zhao Zhao's arms. He cursed, "That expression is just like the little phoenix in your arms! And the figure is almost the same too!"
He grew angrier the more he looked, so he simply turned his head away from Yue, his huge body rising and falling on the ground.
The roar revealed his unease, and Zhao Zhao and the others were now fairly certain that the little brat was the missing Ye.
Xi Yan silently stepped forward to heal Lei Shi's remaining wounds and ordered Nan Yu to tell him everything that had happened between Lei Shi and Ye.
After learning that Ye had been taken away by the Dragon Clan, Xi Yan was no longer as panicked as before.
He sighed and took over Nan Yu's work to treat Lei Shi: "The dragons love their cubs very much. Ye is in the hands of the dragons, so he probably won't be in any danger."
"But... bringing Ye back might be a bit troublesome."
The powerful healing spell allowed Lei Shi to regain his strength and vitality in just a few breaths. He eagerly transformed into human form, and with a flash of purple light, a tall young man dressed in purple robes appeared before them.
Xi Yan, with a polite demeanor, smiled and said, "I apologize. The cub that just offended you was our clan's young master. If you require compensation, you can speak with us."
Nan Yu nodded in agreement.
Zhao Zhao silently observed their words and actions, her icy fingers lifting Yue's chin, reminding Yue while she studied.
Lei Shi, who was originally furious, saw that the two highly respected phoenixes with such powerful auras were so polite and courteous in apologizing to him. In an instant, most of his resentment disappeared.
"Never mind, the little cub is ignorant. We adult spirit beasts won't stoop to his level." Lei Shi's injuries had mostly healed. After saying goodbye to them, he left directly.
His silhouette was dashing and resolute.
Xi Yan watched his retreating figure, her smile slowly fading. Then she suddenly turned around and looked at Yue expressionlessly: "Once we find Ye, we'll go back and deal with you two."
