However…
“It seems rather unsightly for you to make a move against a younger generation member of the Vermillion Bird Clan right after you’ve awaken, as you are the Vermillion Bird—the mythological beast that protects the Vermillion Bird Clan.” Just like before, a refreshing smile hung on the sage’s face. This time, he’d personally lead this group of people here. If Shen Jiayi were to be killed by the Vermillion Bird now, he would find it hard to explain to Shen Feng.
Even if the sage wasn’t fond of this Shen Jiayi who’d rambled viciously, he couldn’t help but take into consideration the Vermillion Bird Clan’s face.
If this matter were to spread out—that the younger generation of the Vermillion Bird Clan had been personally handled by the Vermillion Bird—it’d be rather unsightly.
The Vermillion Bird sneered. Its puerile voice was mixed with an absolutely high amount of haughtiness.
“Why would I care about humanity’s evaluation? This woman was so rude to the person that I selected, and she didn’t have any necessity to continue living.” She was nothing more than a very small human that he could instantly kill with a movement of his finger.
The sage smiled as he said, “I naturally know that you simply don’t care about humanity’s way of looking at things, but after all, there’s still the Vermillion Bird Clan’s blood relation left in this child’s body. I believe that even with that tempers of yours, it ought to be unlikely of you to be willing to be that decisive, just like this, towards the later generations of your previous master.”
Sure enough, there was no one from the God’s Domain that was any good, for they’d unexpectedly dared to bring out this set of general truths. The Vermillion Bird coldly snorted, but he knew that this move from the sage was already him showing it that he clearly wanted to protect Shen Jiayi. Although he wasn’t afraid of the sage, for the time being, he simply didn’t want to make an enemy out of the God’s Domain.
Although he loathed the people from the God’s Domain, they’d nevertheless concealed an exceedingly large amount of power.
“This child is still young, and isn’t sensible. You don’t have to take what she’s said seriously. After all, it wouldn’t be too fitting for you, who’s been lying dormant for century, to see blood right after you’ve been awaken with great difficulty. As for this child’s rudeness, someday, I’ll naturally tell the current head of the Vermillion Bird Clan, and leave it for him to take care off. So, please feel reassured.” The sage clearly knew when dealing with the Vermillion Bird, a mythological animal with this kind of strength, that he couldn’t be too unyielding, and could only go with the flow.
