Chapter 100 - Half-human

It was said that it took a hen twenty-one days to hatch her eggs, but this phoenix egg hatched after merely a sleep of hers?

Wasn’t it too easy to hatch a divine beast’s egg?

However, what Yun Wu didn’t know was that her sleep lasted a month and a half.

The world outside had descended into chaos long ago.

“Crack!”

All of a sudden, with a crisp sound, a crack appeared in the eggshell and soon stretched and branched.

Yun Wu couldn’t help staring squarely at it out of curiosity.

Since it was a phoenix egg, the creature coming out of it would naturally be a phoenix. Its mother was very mighty and beautiful, so this little thing must also be gorgeous.

However…

“Sneeze!”

A dazzling red light abruptly burst through the eggshell and with that fiery red flames instantly pervaded the pit.

The fire was fierce with awe-inspiring momentum.

Everything happened so fast.

When the flames died down, everything around her was badly burnt and blackened.

Yun Wu, who was still in amazement, was the most intrusive being in this scene.

She was pitch-black from head to toe, her burnt hair smoking, as if she had just crawled out of a dirty stove.

At this moment, a chubby little head slowly craned out of the eggshell which had only its lower half left.

What was that?

After a moment’s perplexity, Yun Wu collected herself, but before she could get angry, the creature inside the eggshell stunned her again.

Like human, it had two hands, two feet, a pair of eyes, a pair of ears and a nose, but it was different from human. Its little head was bald, and it had red, soft feathers on its plump body.

Its eyes were big and round, very cute, but it had two little fangs revealed outside its small, red mouth, which made it look like a small zombie. It appeared somewhat ferocious but also very adorable.

However, this wasn’t exactly what a phoenix was supposed to look like, was it?

After craning out of the eggshell, the little thing curiously swept its large, cut eyes around in a cute manner.

It seemed to be watching something, but it also seemed to be looking for something.

When it raised its head and saw the pitch-black Yun Wu in front of it, it tilted its little head aside, as if thinking about something.

But soon, it furrowed its brow, a seemingly disgusted look glinting in its eyes, “Ugly… ”

It uttered an indistinct word in an babyish voice.

Yun Wu had never expected that a half-human little freak would be disgusted by her some day.

She was a little annoyed. This little thing nearly roasted her when it was still in the egg, and the first thing it told her after it hatched out was that she was ugly.

She stretched out her hand, grabbed its chubby little leg in the eggshell and lifted it up.

“You little fatty. You are the ugly one.”

“Ugly, ugly… ” It waved its claws and grimaced at her, revealing two fangs.

Yun Wu goggled at the little fatty about the size of a puppy, saying angrily, “You are ugly. You whole family are ugly guys. Damn little fatty. I’ll beat you.”

It kept swinging its little hands but was unable to reach Yun Wu, its large round eyes filled with tears, “Ugly… ”

“You still won’t stop?” Yun Wu glared at it.

What she was unaware of was that her face was as black as the back of a wok, so it was very natural that this little thing felt she was ugly.

“Ugly! Ugly!”

Yun Wu fixed the little thing in her hand with a stare, feeling extremely depressed.

Eventually, she realized that she was kind of being too childish.

‘Why am I taking this little thing’s words so seriously?’ She loosened its grip and dropped it into the lower half of the eggshell.

“Stupid little fatty. I’m too busy to argue with you,” she murmured.
