Chapter 115: The Adorably Naive Little Phoenix
Page 1/3
Only now did she begin to regret having made a move against Luoyan in front of Baili Tianchang.
"Am I such a timid person?"
Once upon a time, Baili Tianchang was a mercenary who commanded storms and seas; how could she be frightened by such a scene?
"But Ninth Prince, did you do this for me?"
"I have said, from now on, no one shall show you disrespect."
Nalan Dijiu wore an expression of self-evident authority.
"She only cursed me a few times, and her sword didn’t even wound me. If you start killing people for this, wouldn’t that be indiscriminate slaughter?"
Baili Tianchang knew that Nalan Dijiu had killed Luoyan on her behalf. Her heart was filled with gratitude.
In this world, whether in the previous twenty-first century or now, Nalan Dijiu was the first man to take the initiative to protect her.
But gratitude aside, she found Luoyan’s hatred toward her puzzling, yet she did not feel it warranted killing her.
After all, she was indeed a worthless, plain woman at the moment; many had insulted and mocked her in this world. Could Nalan Dijiu possibly kill them all?
"For you, am I to be condemned for indiscriminate slaughter?"
Unexpectedly, Nalan Dijiu still wore an expression of unquestionable conviction.

Baili Tianchang remained silent.
She did not quite understand Nalan Dijiu’s world yet.
Little Phoenix nestled in Baili Tianchang’s arms, and Baili Tianchang leaned against Nalan Dijiu’s embrace.
Little Phoenix seemed somewhat confused about what had just happened, appearing dazed.
But Great Phoenix had seen clearly.
This man was cold and ruthless, his eyes fixed only on this seemingly powerless woman.
Yet, this man was incredibly strong.
From this, it seemed that the woman he treasured so dearly must truly be extraordinary!
With this thought, Great Phoenix seemed to understand why Little Phoenix was so fond of Baili Tianchang, this human woman.
Seeing that the danger had passed, Little Phoenix stretched out its somewhat clumsy head, pressing it against the half of Baili Tianchang’s face adorned with a black phoenix-tail butterfly.
For some reason, against Baili Tianchang’s cheek, Little Phoenix felt an extraordinary sense of peace.
This peace was something it had never experienced, even when returning to its mother’s side!
Only when pressed against Baili Tianchang’s cheek did it feel this way!

This feeling was like returning home to the soul itself—calm and comforting.
This soul’s home made Little Phoenix feel warm, so very warm.
"Clang, clang, clang."
Great Phoenix waited quietly for a moment, then seeing Little Phoenix still clinging tightly to Baili Tianchang’s cheek, unwilling to let go or follow her away, began to urge Little Phoenix.
"Little one, come home with your mother! What are you trying to do being so close to a human? I am your mother, you know!"
Great Phoenix glared sternly at Little Phoenix and shouted.
"No, no, I don’t want to!"
Little Phoenix chirped loudly in response.
"Little one, if you don’t listen to your mother soon, I’ll have to spank your little bottom! What’s so good about this human that you like her so much?"
Great Phoenix was genuinely angry now.
"Whimper... whimper... mother’s mean... mother’s spanking me."
Little Phoenix began to feel aggrieved.
