Chapter 155: Source World 7 (part 2 of 2)
Truth be told, the Little Phoenix’s like towards the Soaring Serpent really isn’t the genuine type of like, but that kind of momentary novelty of a child. The likes of a child is the most illogical, as well as the most unreliable. — Because, like a boring toy, you can be discarded by him at anytime.
Of course, the Little Phoenix happens to be very interested towards this new toy at present, and was still quite a distance from discarding him, as he even personally made a snake nest with longevity stone to give to his pet snake. The nest is covered with a layer of soft and comfortable Immortal plants. Before going to bed, he also didn’t forget to hold the snake’s nest while telling it the rules to be followed in the Heavenly Realm in a long-winded manner.
The Little Phoenix had a very happy life these past few days.
The sense of accomplishment in taking care of a pet, and the sense of satisfaction in taking the role of a little adult, made it almost write the word ‘happy’ on it’s face. That it even seemed to have become addicted in playing house.
Unfortunately, not too long after having experienced this, this satisfaction of his came to an abrupt end.
— Not only did the good pet have unexpectedly changed into human form all of a sudden, but was even of a tall man. This surprised the Little Phoenix, who opened the door to the room, as well as An Ying, who was merely attempting to change form.
Qi Chen Palace has a lot of Spiritual aura, which is quite beneficial to both Demons and Immortals. The longevity stone made into a snake nest, is also a high-level treasure with marvelous healing effects, added onto the naturally powerful healing ability of the Soaring Serpent. Thus, An Ying’s internal and external injuries surprisingly made a complete recovery within just a few days. Therefore, he couldn’t refrain from trying to change into his human form, but he never expected to succeed by only the second attempt.
At first, the Little Phoenix mistakenly thought that a stranger had broken into the room, and subconsciously attacked the other party with a palm blast. An Ying hurriedly dodged the fierce and powerful palm blast, and successfully avoided the attack. Upon seeing this, the Little Phoenix sent several more palm blasts. However, having just recovered sixty to seventy percent of magic power, this dodging took a slight toll on An Ying. The palm blast finally swept the jade pendant on his body, breaking the jade pendant into two halves.
The jade pendant is flower shaped, which is exactly the shape of a Demon flower unique in the Demon Realm. The serpentine design carving, coupled with the man’s black clothes and pupil color, made the Little Phoenix belatedly realize that he is his pet.
Although surprised and angry, but neither did the Little Phoenix express any disgust. But the pet he wants is one that is younger and weaker than him. One that is even unable to have a human form nor be able to live independently. However, not only is An Ying already an adult, he can even effortlessly avoid his attacks. Which is far from the standard of pet he wants.
Therefore, An Ying’s status instantly changed from a pet held in the Little Phoenix’s palm into a servile servant. Moreover, the Little Phoenix, who still hadn’t enough of addiction in raising a pet, became upset and angry. That he began a deliberate retaliation through bossing him around, and letting him attend to him on all things, with what could be considered as an arrogant tone.
The order given during evening meal: “Come, feed me!”
The follow up order after the mealtime: “Come, carry me back to my room on your back!”
Another order before sleeping: “Come, take my shoes off!”
An Ying unexpectedly complied with all these orders without a word.
He carried the Little Phoenix on his back, and brought him back to the bed in the bedroom, then half-knelt to take off his shoes for him. The Little Phoenix raised his feet in a comfortable manner, letting An Ying help him remove his shoes and socks, as well as help warm his slightly cold feet with the other’s big and slightly rough palm.
The Little Phoenix was born as a master to be served by others, and thus, didn’t feel the slightest bit of inappropriateness with this. But from the viewpoint of a man like An Ying, the behaviour of half-kneeling on the ground to serve another is really too outlandish from his character. If this was in the Demon Realm, the chins of the Demon races, who knows him, would have fallen in shock. It’s a pity that, his eyes, after turning into human form, were still as static as the vertical pupils in his serpent form, and were more deeper and detached than a bottomless cold pool.
Because the Little Phoenix was still young, thus, not only was his appearance somewhat difficult to distinguish between either gender, the same goes for his skeletal structure as well. The skeletal structure of the sole of the foot was slender, white and very cute. The ankle is even more delicate, like a jade carving, which makes An Ying want to grasp it in his hand.
An Ying ultimately extended his hand, and lightly squeezed the youth’s foot that is in his hand.
The five toes momentarily curled up as if having received a shock, but it was only very slightly. It looked so pitiful, that he unexpectedly felt an inexplicable urge to lick it.
He restrained and let go of this thoughts in the end. However, the Little Phoenix, who discovered An Ying’s physique of being warm in winter and cool in summer through the grip just now, issued his last order for tonight: “Big Black, come up and warm my bed.”
After having grown up, the Little Phoenix still had an adorable sleeping appearance. But this sleeping appearance was currently at the most deceptive period. Before falling asleep, he would even snuggle in An Ying’s arms, and brazenly used An Ying’s arm as a pillow. But the moment he falls into a semi-conscious state of sleep, he would roll over to the other side. But would only sleep there until midnight, as he would roll back once again, then snuggle in An Ying’s arms once more, and would even clamber on An Ying’s body with his hands and feet.
An Ying stiffened once more. Without any idea on what to do, nor any idea on where to place his hands. Thus, he motionlessly let the Little Phoenix move about in his sleep, and only cover him when he kicks the quilt away.
In the morning of the next day, when the Little Phoenix happened to wake up early, which was of a very rare occurrence. Seeing as he wasn’t using An Ying’s arm as a pillow as he did before falling asleep, his short-temper unexpectedly flared, “Didn’t I say that you have a comfortable body temperature? So why didn’t you have your arms around me as I slept?”
An Ying still remained as silent as before. But the Little Phoenix acted like a little rascal once more, as he grumbled: “In any case, it’s your negligence in service. Even if I roll away, you must also hold me and prevent me from rolling away.”
In reality, the Little Phoenix was quite satisfied with An Ying’s service, that most of his anger from losing a pet had already dissipated as well. After lunch, as he nestled in the rocking chair to bask in the sun as usual, An Ying replaced Qing Luan’s task, of burning the incense and fetching a blanket to cover him.
“That’s right,” When An Ying turned around to fetch the blanket, the Little Phoenix called him to a stop, “Stretch out your hand.”
Although An Ying didn’t know what the Little Phoenix was up to, but he still subconsciously stretched his hand over. The man’s palm was wide and large, filled with a steady and powerful feeling.
The Little Phoenix surprisingly took a Chinese parasol tree flower that had drifted down the tree and placed the flower on An Ying’s palm, and softly said: “That day, I mistook you as a bad guy, who broke in Qi Chen Palace, and broke your flower shaped jade pendant. I don’t know whether you can still fix it either. — How about I compensate you with this Chinese parasol tree flower?”
This words were truly very unreasonable. How can a high quality flower shaped pendant and a piece of fallen flower, blown away by the wind on the same day, be on par? Even though the Little Phoenix’s tone contained a sense of ‘as it should be by rights’, but his exquisite appearance revealed a little playfulness unique to a youth, which looks cute and sincere.
This appearance looks a bit like those romantic and affectionate noble sons, who’s good at stealing a girl’s heart. Relying on their personal charm and the other party’s feelings, to make the other party willingly say yes to whatever they say. What’s more, feelings were fundamentally unfair. So long as the feeling of like exists, even a dead leaf will also become more important than a fine jade.
