Chapter 1378: You’re Not a Woman If You Don’t Take Revenge (3)

Vermilion Bird’s eyes reddened as he stubbornly wiped away his tears. He raised his head and looked at Xiu who was standing at the side. With a wave of his hand, he shot a fireball towards Xiu.

Xiu stood rooted on the spot without moving. The flames from Vermilion Bird continued to fall on his body, burning away a strand of hair and clothes.

His exposed skin had a serious burn mark, but Xiu did not even frown and merely revealed a cold expression.

“I shouldn’t have trusted you!” Vermilion Bird glared at Xiu. From the very beginning, he was filled with hostility towards Xiu. If not for Shen Yanxiao, he would not have been able to coexist peacefully with Xiu for so long.

The reason why Vermilion Bird dared to leave Shen Yanxiao’s side was because he knew that Xiu was still residing in her body.

However, Xiu was clearly by Shen Yanxiao’s side, but he still caused her to suffer such serious injuries.

How could Vermilion Bird not feel hatred?

Xiu did not explain anything. He merely stood on one side and looked at Shen Yanxiao.

Vermilion Bird did not care if Xiu was from the G.o.d race. He stepped forward and grabbed Xiu’s clothes. He looked up and glared at Xiu with his scarlet eyes. “If there’s a next time, I don’t mind killing a G.o.d!”

Xiu glanced at Vermilion Bird and slowly said, “There won’t be a next time.”

One time was enough for him to see through his heart. He did not attack initially because he knew of Shen Yanxiao’s stubbornness. He respected her choice and gave her the opportunity to train herself.

However, it was not until the moment Shen Yanxiao was injured that Xiu realized that his calm heart was not as calm as he had imagined.

At that moment, there was no reason in his mind, only the intent to kill.

This was the first time Xiu had experienced such a heart-wrenching feeling. He had lived for countless years and experienced numerous changes in the continent. He had seen through the changes between races. Even at the end of the war between G.o.ds and devils, when he sacrificed himself, his heart did not fluctuate in the slightest.

However, when Shen Yanxiao was injured, he deeply experienced heartache and anger.

That feeling was novel to Xiu, but he soon realized the reason.

Some people, some G.o.ds, would only be moved once in their lives.

This time, he did not hesitate to destroy the world.

Xiu’s heart was much deeper than Shen Yanxiao imagined.

Vermilion Bird angrily released his grip and turned around to squat beside Shen Yanxiao. With reddened eyes, he pulled on his sleeves and carefully wiped away the sweat on her forehead.

Little Phoenix and Mini Dragon seemed to have understood that Shen Yanxiao was injured. The two noisy mascots were now lying on Vermilion Bird’s body obediently. They looked at Shen Yanxiao with their big black eyes, expressing their concern.

Shen Yanxiao’s injury had brought about huge changes to many things. For Xiu, for Vermilion Bird, and for An Yan…

As for the five old urchins from the Moonlight Tribe who had just returned from their stroll in the trading house, this was something that made them go crazy.

Once Wu En and the rest returned to the Moons.h.i.+ne Tribe, they immediately found out about Shen Yanxiao. The five old men practically rushed into her room at the first instance.

When the five experienced old men saw Shen Yanxiao’s miserable appearance, their eyes reddened.

“Little Xiao’er, why are you so stubborn? What won’t you tell us?” Wu En looked at Shen Yanxiao and felt his heart ache. When he thought about how the little girl who was usually lively had become like this, he wished he could immediately charge to the Qingyuan Tribe to settle this debt.
