Chapter 150 - 150 - The Street Urchin And The Yamen Runner

Mu Feng huffed and puffed as he walked around town. He was super annoyed. No one has ever called him fake phoenix in a long time. The surrounding crowd all looked at him with a vigilant look. He snickered and walked away to a nearby tea shop.

He plopped on the small stool and bent over. He was feeling sick to the stomach because of that vine. That stupid dragon's blood seeped into his body, making him extremely sick. "aghh," he puked out black blood out.

A shadow covered him and a white cotton shoe stepped in front of his sight.

He gazed up with a skeptical look. "Why are you here now?"

Long Ki sighed and sat down next to him. He saw him and patted his back. "Sorry for talking like that. Yukiya explained everything." She had told him that this guy had a complex about being a hybrid.

"I don't need your pity," Mu Feng groaned and wiped his face.

"I'm not pitying you,"

"Then why are you here? Aren't you still jealous that I'm close to Yukiya?" Mu Feng whispered.

"No...you really like boy's right?" he whispered doubtfully.

Mu Feng chuckled. He sat up and patted his back. "You are a silly man. Are you still not interested in men?"

"No! Never! I have Yukiya," Long Ki shrugged his hands away. "Look, you are Yukiya's friend. Her friend is my friend too. Please don't treat me like an enemy here and please don't repeat that you have seen Yukiya without clothes again. My blood boils listening to that,"

"For your information, that was when she was small little koi was swimming around in the river," Mu Feng said with a whisper.

Long Ki shot up and loomed over him. "You have seen her as a baby! How cute was she? Did she play around a lot? How about her scale colour? Is it gold, silver or black?" he said urgently. He really was curious how his cute little fiancé was when she was a baby.

Mu Feng made him sit down next to him. "Bribe me with food, I might divulge some information," he whispered with a naughty look.

"Deal,"

Long Ki bought a table full of food, in exchange Mu Feng revealed a lot of information about Yukiya's childhood.

"Oh my god, her scale is gold. I never knew that," The dragon excitedly exclaimed. "she is golden.... heheh my favourite colour,"' he said.

"Yes, and she has some silver scales as well. When she was a baby, she had many black scales as well, but those transformed into silver as she grew," Mu Feng said eating a piece of shrimp dumpling.

"Silver too.. My favourite as well," the dragon shouted.

"Hey how many favourite colours do you have huh," Mu Feng said though a mouth full of dumplings.

"Any could Yukiya is will be my favourite. Because she is my favourite," Long ki shouted and took a big bite of the dumplings on the plate.

After a soulful chat, both of them strolled around the town. Even thought at their start was rocky, later they found that they share many similarities. This man also was a patriarch; his management at least was exceptional. His ideologies were also refreshing compared to many heaven's ministers.

"Mumu, why don't you some to heaven and become a heaven's official," Long ki walked next to him.

Mu Feng shook his head. "I have too many responsibilities here," he said with a small smile.

As they were walking, a small kid dashed them and ran away.

Mu Feng gazed at him with his eyes narrowed. "Street urchin, watch where you're going," he shouted.

The kid turned back with a full smile. "Stupid," he shouted and shook two small bags at them.

Long Ki patted his belt to find it empty. That's when they realised that they have been robbed.

Mu Feng and Long Ki gave chase. The little kid was slippery he dashed through small holes in the houses and ran around through the town. Just like that, two celestial beings almost lost to a small urchin.

Finally, the kid was cornered near a turn. Long Ki dragged him over and took their coin pouches out of his hands. "Kid, stealing is bad," he said.

The kid squirmed around.

Mu Feng walked over and gazed down at him. "what should we do with him?"

"Send him to the yamen's office. This bad behaviour should be stopped," Long ki said. He had seen many kid's like him. If they do not change their character when they are young then they might grow up to become a bandit or something.

So the mighty red dragon, a peacock hybrid and a small street urchin went to the yamen's office. It looked quite busy with a long line standing in front of it. Waiting their turn, they finally met a yamen officer. He was busy flipping through many papers in front of him.

Long Ki pulled the struggling kid forward. "Give this kid a job," he said.

The yamen runner looked up with a skeptical gaze. "If you are not here regarding the missing person notice please come back later,"

"Give him a job," he repeated with his eyes narrowed.

The yamen runner lost his patience. He stood up and glared at them. "yaaa, who do you think you are prancing in here and demanding that I give him a job. Are you a magistrate or something?"

The mighty prince of heaven's realm sweated. "I do not hold any official position on the human realm." He whispered hesitantly.

"Then get lost," the yamen runner shouted.

Mu Feng sighed and stepped up. "is this how you treat extinguished guests? This guy could easily have your head for the way you talked." He gazed at the dragon.

Long Ki looked at him with a confusing look. 'Not here, I don't hold any authority,' he thought.

But the peacock continued. "This kid, give him a job here. Anything is fine, sweeping, vessel cleaning. You will do it right kid," he gazed down at the urchin.

The kid humped and turned around, but his red ears gave away his thoughts.

The yamen runner gulped. He saw the way this guy dressed. It was made up of a silk he had never laid eyes on. And the guy standing next to him was looming up and had a majestic aura. 'This guy.....is he an emperor,' He knew that he made a mistake. "I am sorry, your Excellency. Please spare my life," he shouted and knelt down.

Long ki and Mu Feng gazed at each other with a confusing look. "Just arrange a job for this kid,"

"Yes! Yes we will," the yamen runner shouted.

Long Ki nodded in satisfaction. In his hind sight he saw a huge poster it said that they are looking for someone who wears white and a bamboo hat. "What is this poster about?" he whispered.

The yamen runner hurriedly said, "They are searching for a woman named Yukiya, who fits the description. They reward is a spirit crystal,"

"Yukiya.... you mean someone is searching of her?" Long ki whispered vigilantly. Someone might be trying to hunt his mate to get to him. He had been too careless before. He is a family man now, and he has to protect them well. 'I have to hunt them down.' He thought, clenching his fists.

"Who posted it?" he growled.

"Someone named Xia," the yamen runner shivered.
