The Good-for-Nothing Seventh Miss - Chapter 73

Chapter 73

The Vermilion Bird had not appeared for a hundred years, and even Shen Feng did not know much about him . He only knew that the Vermilion Bird possessed remarkable abilities . Shen Yanxiao had already prepared her explanation beforehand . If someone were to ask her about her sudden recovery, she would use the Vermillion Bird as a cover .

Who would dare to question her answer? They could seek confirmation from that conceited little bird if they were capable of that .

“Good, very good… that’s great . ” Shen Feng patted Shen Yanxiao’s shoulders in excitement . He had believed her as soon as he saw the flame mark between her eyebrows .

The Vermilion Bird had returned, and Shen Yanxiao had recovered . The concurrent joyous events had brought a huge smile on Shen Feng’s usually imposing face, and he then asked everyone to go back to the estate .

However, Shen Yanxiao stopped him and pulled on his sleeves .

“What’s wrong?” Shen Feng did not know how to react with his granddaughter, who had suddenly recovered .

Shen Yanxiao looked at her carriage, and distressingly said, “Grandfather, the Vermilion Bird is still in the carriage . ”

“…” Shen Feng looked at the carriage that was still parked outside the gates as Shen Yanxiao’s words rang in his mind .

The Vermilion Bird… was in that carriage!!

The man, who was already more than fifty years old, suddenly trembled as he anxiously checked if his clothes were neat .

Whereas for Shen Yue and Shen Duan, they wished they could glue their eyes onto the carriage .

Everyone continued to stand outside the huge gates as they quietly waited for the Vermilion Bird to appear, and no one dared to complain .

It was not until their faces were almost burned by the scorching sun that there were finally some movements from the carriage .

A small white hand stretched from the carriage, and everyone held their breath .

A small pale face suddenly appeared, and everyone immediately widened their eyes .

That… was the Vermilion Bird?

Everyone was dumbstruck as they looked at the haggard little face . Even though his handsome face had far exceeded their expectations, they would never have imagined that their family’s powerful mythical beast would appear as a four-year-old child .

Shen Feng was speechless . He stared at the Vermillion Bird’s scarlet eyes and immediately remembered something that he had read from the Vermilion Bird Family’s ancient records . The records stated that the Vermilion Bird would have scarlet eyes when it transformed into a human form . However…

It said nothing about a four-year-old child!!

The Vermilion Bird’s appearance had far exceeded everyone’s expectations . Many members of the Vermillion Bird Family stood rooted to the spot as if they were petrified .

The attendant with the Vermilion Bird had carefully supported him as he got down the carriage . After the incident in the Lava Valley, he became extremely respectful toward Shen Yanxiao and did not even dare to breathe loudly in her presence . He was completely different from his previous unfriendly attitude toward her .

The Vermilion Bird did not notice any of those shocked gazes that were aimed at him . He bit his lip and walked down the carriage . With his small frame and pale complexion, he seemed exceptionally delicate .

Was he really their family’s mythical beast? Wasn’t his image… a little too adorable?! The other members of the Vermillion Bird Family could not help it as those thoughts popped into their minds . They had imagined the Vermilion Bird in all kinds of different forms . From a mighty beast to a tyrannical human, but they had never expected the Vermilion Bird to look so… adorable!

Everyone was at a loss .

At that moment, the Vermilion Bird was very angry . He was a powerful mythical beast and yet, he needed an inferior human to support him down a carriage . That was too embarrassing!

As he was resentful and shameful of the situation, the Vermilion Bird stared angrily at the few carriages that were parked outside the entrance . Suddenly, he waved his left hand, and a flame ignited mid-air . Before anyone could react, the fire that flickered in the air swooshed past them and headed toward those eight carriages .
