Shen Yanxiao nodded and narrowed her eyes at the Vermillion Bird.
"Do you still want to deny this? The little Phoenix hatched three days earlier because of you."
The Vermilion Bird shrunk his neck. Even though he was full of pride, he was never unreasonable. With the facts laid out before him, he had no excuse to reject their request.
However…
He did not want to take care of a child!
"Chu~?" The little Phoenix on his head sensed the Vermilion Bird's emotional fluctuation, but the ignorant little creature did not know that its 'family' had disliked its closeness. Instead, it tried to comfort the Vermillion Bird by rubbing on his head.
"…" The Vermilion Bird looked even more displeased.
"Now that things have progressed to this point, how could you possibly shirk your responsibilities as a mythical beast! You are an ancient mythical beast, don't you know about responsibilities?" Shen Yanxiao continued to fan the fire.
