”That's right!” It was me. ”Sir, you must take good care of your dog next time.”
Xiao Yun coldly said as he retracted his Giant Stick.
”Brat, I've remembered you. Next time I'll let you die. ”Hahahaha …”
Sheng Zi of Heavenly Pool did not feel that he had lost face at all, and instead became even more arrogant.
”Let's go …”
Sheng Zi of Heavenly Pool called for the four lackeys, then walked in the other direction of Earth Flame City.
Watching the Sheng Zi of Heavenly Pool leave, for some reason, Xiao Yun felt that this person was extremely strange, with an indescribable feeling. That kind of feeling could actually threaten his existence.
”I can clearly sense that he can threaten me, but why is he not attacking me?”
Xiao Yun asked.
”He's just testing the waters. There are experts everywhere in the Earth Flame City. If he reveals himself, that would be courting death.”
Huo Fenghuang explained.
”But I was exposed.”
Xiao Yun frowned, but Huo Fenghuang actually did not tell him these things.
”So, he left.”
Huo Fenghuang laughed sinisterly.
”You …”
Xiao Yun was a little angry, as Huo Fenghuang was using his.
”Don't worry!” Not many people do not know that you have comprehended Sword Qi. It just so happens that we can use your status as a swordsman to recruit people. ”
Huo Fenghuang gave Xiao Yun a satisfactory answer.
Hearing this explanation, Xiao Yun felt better.
”Uncle!” Sister! I... Can I be your companion? ”
Just as Huo Fenghuang and Xiao Yun were chatting, a crisp, sweet and innocent voice rang in their ears.
Huo Fenghuang and Xiao Yun looked towards the source of the voice. Not too far away from their feet stood a little girl, about three or four years old. She was wearing a child's outfit, her hair tied up with a small sparrow, and the other one had spread out. Her chubby little face was dirty, and her child's outfit was dirty, but her watery eyes were very firm, and her little mouth was tightly pressed together.
”…”
Xiao Yun and Huo Fenghuang were stunned.
They actually summoned a three year old child?
”Little girl, what's your name?”
For some reason, the cold Huo Fenghuang's expression suddenly softened as she weakly looked at the little girl, and then slowly squatted down and asked.
”I'm Shuangshuang!”
The little girl looked at Huo Fenghuang with her watery eyes.
”Shuangshuang? Your name is really nice to hear. Shuangshuang, where are your parents? ”
Huo Fenghuang asked.
They opened their mouths but no words came out. They just stood there silently.
”Is it inconvenient to say?”
Huo Fenghuang frowned.
Both of them shook their heads and remained silent.
This time, Huo Fenghuang had no other choice.
Xiao Yun also squatted down, and took out a silver ingot to give to Shuangshuang: ”Take the money and go look for mom and dad! Our job is not for you. When you grow up, big brother will take you on an adventure. ”
Xiao Yun scratched his small head.
Shuangshuang took the money, pursed her lips and ran off, eventually disappearing into the crowd.
”There really is you. You actually know how to use this method to coax children.”
Huo Fenghuang grinned.
”I used to have a sister, too. However … She's dead. ”
Xiao Yun said indifferently.
Huo Fenghuang's smile congealed, as if she could understand Xiao Yun's feelings.
