The Ice Phoenix felt a little guilty when Qin Yi stared at it like that. It knew that its master was an unfeeling person so it replied without much confidence, “This, uh, king is still at a young stage, it will be able to do so when it grows up.”
Qin Yi had expected this and hadn’t counted on this fat little bird, no, this little phoenix to help her.
However, what it said was true. It was young now but it was still an ancient mythological animal, and would definitely be a big help when it grew up.
Even without this fact, the little thing had a contract with her. She could feel the connection between the two of them, her subconscious mind already having registered it as one of her own. Qin Yi wasn’t a good person but she was very defensive of what was hers.
“What do you need?”
The Ice Phoenix was stunned, the three little strands of hair on its head standing up, clearly not having expected Qin Yi to be so straightforward, causing a tinge of warmth to go through its heart.
Seeing as this dumb woman didn’t treat him too badly, the great Ice Phoenix King had made her one of its own.
“Crystal core, I need to absorb the energy in the crystal core.”
Qin Yi heaved a sigh of relief, thankful it didn’t request something strange. There was no lack of crystal cores during the apocalypse. The more zombies there were, the more crystal cores there were available.
Also, ability users could use the crystal cores to enhance one’s strength. Although there was a great deal of hidden danger, there were still many who went after the crystal cores like magpies.
However, when Qin Yi remembered what she thought about today, she really wanted to stuff a certain ravenous beast into the eggshell.
The Ice Phoenix didn’t want to be disliked by its owner, so it took the initiative to show its value. “I am connected to this space and I can harvest fruits and vegetables when you’re not around. You don’t have to worry about planting either, and although I don’t know why you want to dress up as a boy, I can help with your disguise using my illusion technique. It would be safer and more convenient next time.”
Qin Yi didn’t expect this little thing to actually have the illusion technique but it was convenient for her.
During the apocalypse, although the strong were respected, females were still seen as the weaker sex. Female ability users were known to be captured by strong ability users and confined just to create powerful offspring.
This was why Qin Yi chose to dress as a male, forming things like an Adam’s apple using her own mental ability. Although it worked, it also consumed a lot of her mental strength. With the aid of the Ice Phoenix, she could heave a sigh of relief.
Qin Yi took out a pork chop and placed it in a bowl, putting it in front of the Ice Phoenix. “Eat up.”
The hair on the Ice Phoenix’s head stuck upwards, showing it was in a good mood. Although it thought this bowl too shabby and wasn’t worthy of this great Ice Phoenix king, it still ate from it.
When Qin Yi saw that the Ice Phoenix had finished one pork chop, she placed another piece inside and suddenly asked, “You don’t have a name, right?”
The little phoenix was fumbling with the pork chop, replying with, “Ji, ji, ji. That’s right.”
Qin Yi glanced at the Ice Phoenix, rubbing her chin as she said, “Then, let’s call you Xiao Lan.”
The Ice Phoenix simply nodded as it happily ate but came to its senses soon after, looking at Qin Yi blankly. It didn’t even react when its pork chop fell. “Ji?”
Qin Yi simply took out another piece of pork chop for the Ice Phoenix, no, Xiao Lan, a rare hint of joy appearing in her ice-cold eyes. “En, it’s decided then.”
Qin Yi drove the car she took out from the Origin Space, happiness apparent in her usually cool eyes. Whenever Qin Yi thought about Xiao Lan’s expression, like it was better off dead than alive, she couldn’t help but smile.
Qin Yi didn’t have to drive for long before she found a few people surrounded by a group of zombies, one of them being carried on someone else’s back like he was bitten or infected.
The situation didn’t look very optimistic.
They seemed to have seen Qin Yi and one of their eyes lit up before dimming instantly.
That’s right, who would take the risk to save them?
One person, however, caught Qin Yi’s eye. freewe bnovel .com
“That is...” Qin Yi spoke subconsciously and yelled out that person’s name, “Yun Huan.”
