Chapter 575: Chapter 575
Suddenly hearing someone’s voice in her mind, Village Chief Xue stops her movements by trying to destroy the egg which she deems dangerous. After all, most of the unknown can only be considered dangerous unless one proves that it’s not. Right this moment, an egg of this size without anyone knowing what’s inside can only be considered hazardous. That’s why as the Village Chief, Miss Xue wanted to destroy this thing and end things before it gets worse.
However, who would have expected that at this moment this egg would suddenly make a contact or secure a way to communicate with Village Chief Xue.
{Do not destroy me! I’m about to hatch. I haven’t done anything to you humans. Don’t force me to freeze you to death!}
The village chief was stunned at first and heard that voice in her head again. If she thought she was hallucinating but after hearing the voice for the second time.
{Human, are you listening?!}
The Village Chief looked shocked and suddenly hugged the big egg pressing her ear on its smooth surface. The other villagers were shocked.
"What’s wrong, Village Chief?"
"Hm? I heard the egg talking. It seems to be alive," Village Chief Xue said.
The other villagers are innocent by nature and with this village chief leading them for a long time, they knew that she doesn’t know how to lie. That’s why they believed her immediately that the egg could talk. They followed her example and moved closer to the big egg. It didn’t take long before the egg was surrounded by humans hugging it.
Both the egg and the three observers were dumbfounded by the scene. What they saw is a huge egg but surrounded by humans as if hugging it will give it warmth.
Xue Renxue asked in shock, "What the hell are they doing?"
{Is this some kind of ritual among humans?} Baimei asked. This update ıs available on novelFɪre.net
Tan Bingyu can only sigh at the reaction of the two and felt a bit helpless. This scene is both weird and heart warming.
But the egg seems to be annoyed by this and scream in the ears of these humans who dared to hug it.
{AHH! What the hell are you humans doing? Let go! Don’t hug this lord!!}
This time his voice was heard by all the humans who were hugging the egg and they all looked delighted. They looked at their village chief and looked excited as they finally heard the voice their village chief was talking about.
"Hehehe~ me as well!"
"The village chief is telling the truth."
"There is truly a voice coming from an egg!"
"What should we do? The Storm Hail is about to fall. Will this little guy be alright?!"
"Village Chief, what should we do?"
Village Chief Xue was also a bit worried about the egg. Moreover the Hail Storm in there is the type that can even destroy the mountains. The only reason their village is safe is because of the defensive array that protects it.
"Let’s bring the egg to the village! Call everyone over!" The Village Chief decided.
Though it was unknown whether the one inside the egg is an enemy or not, it is still a life in this place where life is limited due to the terrain and uncomfortable weather, every life is precious. That’s why Village Chief Xue is willing to accept this unknown danger.
{Where are you bringing me to?! Let go of me!}
"Be good! We are going to bring you somewhere safe," coaxed the village chief to the egg.
The scenery moves to the back mountain ranges to the small village. A huge nest was made at the center of the village where the villagers placed the white bluish egg. The egg was all along the way and the adult humans treated it as a cub’s tantrum. There is no way they would be willing to leave an unhatched egg in such an open area. After all, the scheduled Hail Storm was about to fall.
Tan Bingyu, Xue Renxue and Baimei just observed the daily scenes in the village. It’s the epitome of slow life and peace. The three chose to watch the scene as if they were in some immersive movie where they can see and feel the events themselves.
One day, they got a bit bored and decided to roam around the village to find something interesting. In such a secluded village what can they find? The most interesting can only be the huge egg at the center of the village. There is only the Village Chief Xue who would visit the egg everyday to speak with it. At first she was ignored but she didn’t mind.
After all, if she was in the position of the egg, being forcibly transferred from one place to another, she would also feel upset. That’s why she would come over everyday to coax the living one inside the egg. After spending days to months, the village chief and the egg had started getting along well. The three finally decided to approach the huge egg because of curiosity. They approached the egg thinking that since they were in a different timeline, there was no way for them to cross and see each other.
At the center of the village, Tan Bingyu, Xue Renxue and Baimei went to see the huge egg which is most likely the main protagonist of this book. The Ice phoenix who is supposed to awakened in accordance to the title of the book.
Xue Renxue said, "Wow~ this egg is truly huge! Will it be delicious when fried?"
{Renxue, how can you say that?! Don’t waste oil, let’s just have it boiled!} Baimei said.
Tan Bingyu sighs seeing the two who were arguing about what to do with the egg. She didn’t stop them as there was no way for them to move the egg at all. Who would have thought that these two would reach out those naughty hands trying to touch the egg. Of course! It’s just a playful gesture. After all, they haven’t been able to touch anything from this world ever since they arrived in it.
Who would have thought that Tan Bingyu who is meditating would suddenly hear exclamations from the two who were being playful beside her.
Tan Bingyu said, "What is it this time?"
"Bing’er, We can touch it! This egg!!" Xue Renxue exclaimed.
{He is not lying,lying sister Bingyu. We can touch this egg!} Baimei shouted.
Tan Bingyu didn’t believe them at first and with a frown joined them near the egg and extended her hand. Who would have thought that was impossible to happen. She can definitely feel the coolness of the smooth surface of the egg.
"How... is this... possible?" Tan Bingyu questioned.
They suddenly heard a languid voice ringing in their ears. It’s the same voice they heard when the egg first spoke with Village Chief Xue.
{Hm? Why do I seem to feel an aura of my descendants? Eh! Two mix human-phoenix and a snow leopard? Where did you three come from?} The voice from the egg questioned.
Xue Renxue asked in surprise, "You can see us!? But that’s impossible! We are not from this world!"
{Shss! Watch what you are saying!} Baimei noticed the strange atmosphere in the area. It was never a good thing for others to know that they were from the future timeline.
Tan Bingyu said, "We’ve always been here. How come you can only see us right now?"
{Really? That’s strange. I’ve been wary of my surroundings from the beginning but didn’t see you guys until you touched me. But the fact that you have an Ice Phoenix Bloodline in your body cannot be ignored. I’m unmarried so you cannot be my direct descendants. Are you connected to my brother?}
{But you have humans . It’s a taboo for the phoenix bloodline to mix with the human bloodline. Who is your ancestor? He had now become a sinner of the Phoenix Race!}
The voice of the ice phoenix now radiates with anger, however, when it tries to attack them he couldn’t control himself and would stop targeting them. This is beyond his control and an instinctive nature of the phoenix race to their direct descendants.
{Eh? Why can’t I attack you? This is impossible! The only beings I cannot harm in this world are my descendants. Who the hell are you people?!} The egg questioned.
The three remained speechless as they also didn’t know what to say. They didn’t expect that mixing bloodlines is considered a taboo in the Phoenix Race. For some reason, they feel that they shouldn’t tell this ancestor of theirs, their connection or the future might change because of them
It seems that by touching the egg, they were able to gain connection to the world. While the three were still surprised, Village Chief Xue who came to check on her friend again unexpectedly saw two younglings and a huge cat beside the egg. Moreover, their clothing is quite unique and completely different from the rough designed clothing on their bodies. The clothing on their bodies seems to be a luxury item compared to hers.
The Village Chief felt a kin like feeling coming from the two humans and frowned. Like the Ice phoenix, she can also feel bloodline connections.
She asked, "Eh? This feeling is... You guys! Who are you!?"
Tan Bingyu, Xue Renxue and Baimei: "......"
