Chapter 2013: Selection Competition (3)

Taotie carefully extended his hand and endeavored to embrace Shen Yanxiao.

During this period, he was the only one around Shen Yanxiao.

She would cultivate crazily every day, and every moment of her perseverance, every minute of her eorts, was imprinted in Taotie’s eyes. Although Shen Yanxiao had never talked about anything, Taotie could feel that in her heart, the word “yearning” had never been erased. On the contrary,

this had become the driving force for Shen Yanxiao’s growth. She constantly absorbed new things, constantly enriched herself, and constantly unlocked the layers of the seal one after another.

She was the only one to bear all this. Whether she missed them or not in her sleep, only she herself knew.

In the past, whether it was her human side, elf side, or dragon side, the awakening of each bloodline and the unraveling of each seal, there was always Xiu by her side to help her. Under the formidable power of Xiu, Shen Yanxiao’s seals were undone faster and faster. But this time, when Shen Yanxiao became an undead, she had temporarily lost his help.

She could only rely on herself to unlock the layers of the seal.

Even so, her speed hadn’t slowed down a bit. If Shen Yanxiao’s training for the Flaming Red Squad was brutal, then her demand for herself left no room for rest.Apart from sleeping and training the Flaming Red Squad, Shen Yanxiao had spent all her time cultivating. She did not know how many times she would have fallen if it hadn’t been for the special physique of the undead and the intensity of her physical training.

Every time Shen Yanxiao collapsed to the ground from overworking herself, there was only Taotie by her side to accompany her. She made such eorts so that she could return to the Hidden Dragon Continent and reunite with

Xiu and Vermillion Bird as early as possible.

“Master, wait a bit more, just wait a bit more.” For the rst time, Taotie found out that his almost omnipotent master also had such a fragile side. Her concern for Xiu and Vermillion Bird made her show the vulnerability that had never been exposed before. But it was really this dedication that made her stronger than anyone else.

“Vermillion Bird, they… Where are they now?” Shen Yanxiao’s voice was somewhat hoarse. She dared not even say Xiu’s name easily, deeply afraid that her resolve to suppress her yearning would collapse completely with the mention of this name.

“They have already entered the border of the Howling Abyss and are heading for the Hidden Dream City. They will arrive within ve days at most. The Dragon God is much faster than us.” Taotie feigned calmness as he answered, but his pair of small hands actually began to tremble. He simply had no idea how to calm Shen Yanxiao’s mood and could only clumsily hold her.

“Five days?” Shen Yanxiao repeated in a small voice.

“Yup, it will only take ve days at most.”

“Taotie.”

“Master, I am here.”

“Tell Vermillion Bird something.”

“What is it?”

“I’m waiting for them in Hidden Dream City.” Shen Yanxiao raised her head, her clear eyes had already restored its original stillness, and a smile was blooming in the corners of her mouth.

“Yes!” Taotie smiled. He could feel Shen Yanxiao’s inner joy.

Somewhere in the sky of the Howling Abyss, on the back of the giant dragon covered by a huge sphere of light, Vermillion Bird tried to restrain his excitement as he conveyed Shen Yanxiao’s words to the tall gure standing on the head of the Dragon God.

A shallow smile blossomed on that thin lips. It was just a light smile, but let the world lose its color.

“Little Xiao, wait a few more days for me.”
