Bab 416: Return (4)

The Phoenix couple seemed familiar with that man. The male Phoenix, who had transformed into his human form, smiled bitterly and said, "We encountered some unfortunate incidents, and our egg hatched earlier than expected."

The handsome and elegant young man frowned.

"I don't sense the little Phoenix."

The Phoenix-man replied, "Mount Kuluo is no longer safe. We have entrusted a friend to temporarily care for it. After we find a new nest, we would fetch our child home."

A trace of doubt surfaced in the young man's calm eyes. He knew how much the couple cared for their youngling, so it was simply unbelievable that they would bear to hand their child to the care of someone else.

"If there's a need, I can search for a new home for you. It was my mistake for arranging you to live on Mount Kuluo and, thus, allowed some people to invade your home." The young man's tone was apologetic.
