111. The Little Phoenix Flutters into Her Arms
Once the little phoenix fell into her hands, it would likely face grave danger!
Driven by an intense desire to protect the little phoenix, the great phoenix shot forward like a sharp arrow toward Baili Tianchang.
The great phoenix was much faster than the little one.
The little phoenix appeared dazed and slow, moving like a clumsy, adorable penguin. Thus, with a flutter of its wings, the great phoenix quickly positioned itself in front of the little phoenix.
“Clang, clang, clang...”
There seemed to be a silent communication between the great phoenix and the little phoenix.
No matter how earnestly the great phoenix pleaded, the little phoenix stubbornly tried to slip out from under its wings, flapping its wings frantically and flying straight toward Baili Tianchang.
Seeing this, Nalan Dijiu’s eyes showed a hint of confusion, yet an understanding smile crept onto his face.
It seemed this little phoenix and his little fairy truly shared a special bond!
At last, the great phoenix grew angry.
Since the little phoenix had returned to it, it had always been obedient.
But this time, the little phoenix defied it completely!
The great phoenix flapped its wings furiously, and seizing the moment, the little phoenix slipped out from beneath, flying once more toward Baili Tianchang.
Baili Tianchang could never have dreamed that this little phoenix would recklessly fly toward her like that.
She clearly saw that this little phoenix bore no threat whatsoever!
It was just a silly, adorable, clumsy little phoenix—there was none of the grandeur or strength seen in the great phoenix.
Yet Nalan Dijiu had said this was a divine phoenix.
Even if it seemed silly and clumsy now, surely it was still far stronger than ordinary beast companions.
So when Baili Tianchang saw the little phoenix resisting the pressure imposed by the great phoenix, overcoming all obstacles to fly toward her, her heart brimmed with emotion.
It was exactly like a beloved pet rushing into its owner's arms!
What a warm and touching scene!
Baili Tianchang opened her arms wide, welcoming the little phoenix into her embrace.
At the sight of her open arms, the little phoenix immediately chirped joyfully.
Its calls and the expression on its face as it ran seemed like a greeting to Baili Tianchang.
The little phoenix’s calls were bright and clear, its expression during the flight so heartfelt.
Such a sight was unmistakably that of a reunion after a long separation.
A thought arose in Nalan Dijiu’s heart—could it be that this little phoenix had met his little fairy before?
As Nalan Dijiu pondered this, the little phoenix had already flown into Baili Tianchang’s open arms.
The small phoenix willingly nestled into her embrace, pressing close and beginning to act affectionately.
Its eyes curiously fixed on the black swallowtail butterfly on Baili Tianchang’s cheek.
It stared intently, unmoving, as if carefully admiring the dark butterfly.
Seeing the little phoenix so affectionate and curious, Baili Tianchang instinctively wrapped her arms around it, her gaze falling softly upon the phoenix.
At this moment, human and phoenix locked eyes in a silent, profound exchange.
