Chapter 603: Hidden Peril (1)
Shen Yanxiao groaned at the fleeing crowd and then looked up to tell the two Phoenixes to come down.
The two Phoenixes gradually transformed into flames, landed on the ground, and then changed back to their human shape.
Uncle Nine, Du Lang, and the others had already been scared stiff when the mystical beasts transformed; they could not believe their own eyes.
They never thought that the handsome couple with Shen Yanxiao were mythical beasts… Phoenixes?!
They had been living and eating with two mythical beasts…
They chatted and made jokes with the mythical beasts…
Was anything real?
“Thank you.” Shen Yanxiao looked at the two Phoenixes with a smile. She had wanted to deal with Qu Rui and his crew, but the two Phoenixes turned out to be helpful. They had defended her, and their sheer presence had scared their opponents away.
“You’re welcome. Besides, we didn’t do much.” The male Phoenix said with a smile; they only changed their appearance, that was all.
All they could admit was that Qu Rui and his crew’s minds were too.
However, Qu Rui was smart enough to understand his men and their magical beasts were no match for the two Phoenixes,
Shen Yanxiao smiled. She turned around and noticed more than 100 pairs of eyes looked at her in astonishment.
The villagers and mercenaries were shocked and stared at her as if she were pure fantasy.
“Err… Xiaoxiao, who are they?” Du Lang felt as if he was under a tremendous amount of pressure. He looked at the two Phoenixes with respect.
Du Lang wondered if the two Phoenixes were from Mount Kuluo.
If that was the case, how did Shen Yanxiao recruit them into her team?
“This is the female Phoenix, and this is the male Phoenix. They are a couple. You met them at Mount Kuluo.” Shen Yanxiao did not attempt to withhold any information; she trusted her team.
She would not use anyone she did not trust, and she would never doubt anyone she used!
“Ah, the two mythical beasts. Please forgive me if I have offended you.” Du Lang wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. Composed as he was, he could not face the two mythical beasts calmly.
For the general public, the mythical beasts were beings that only existed in legends. It would be rare for the public to meet mythical beasts, let alone build a contract with one.
The male Phoenix smiled but said nothing as if he did not remember Du Lang at all.
“What happened? Was it a fight?” Uncle Nine asked Shen Yanxiao worriedly as he suppressed the astonishment in his mind.
Shen Yanxiao shrugged.
“Of course, I told them to piss off. What? Should I have bought them tea instead?”
Uncle Nine sighed. “Which country are they from?”
“The Blue Moon Dynasty.”
“Alas.” Uncle Nine helplessly shook his head.
“What?” Shen Yanxiao found it strange when Uncle Nine sighed. She had driven the invaders away. Why did Uncle Nine look extremely worried?
Uncle Nine kept his eyes on Shen Yanxiao as he slowly said, “Xiaoxiao, you have done the right thing, but this is not the right time.”
“What do you mean?”
“The other three countries have already established their force at the Forsaken Land, and they have built solid foundations. They already have their respective resources and manpower. But you are different; you are new here, and you have to start everything from scratch. Making them your opponent would only bring unnecessary troubles to your future in the Forsaken Land. They might have left now, but they will hold a grudge.”
