Taotie carefully reached out and tried his best to hug Shen Yanxiao.

During this period, he was the only one by Shen Yanxiao’s side.

And by her side, he saw Shen Yanxiao training every single day without fail. Every moment of perseverance and every minute of effort was imprinted in his eyes. Although Shen Yanxiao never said anything, Taotie could feel that in Shen Yanxiao’s heart, her yearning had never been erased. This yearning had become the driving force for Shen Yanxiao’s growth. She constantly absorbed new knowledge, constantly enriched herself, and constantly broke through layer after layer of seals.

Only she could bear all this.

Whether she missed him or not, only she knew.

!!

In the past, be it her human side, her elf side, or her dragon side, the awakening of every bloodline and the unlocking of every layer of the seal were all assisted by Xiu. Under Xiu’s powerful strength, Shen Yanxiao’s seal was undone faster and faster. But this time, Shen Yanxiao, who had become an undead, temporarily lost Xiu’s help.

She could only rely on herself to undo the seal.

Even so, her speed did not slow down. If Shen Yanxiao’s training for the Flaming Red Squad was considered hard, then her demand of herself left her no time to rest.

In addition to sleeping and training the Flaming Red Squad, Shen Yanxiao had spent all her time training. If it were not for the special physique of an undead, she would have collapsed many times over.

Every time Shen Yanxiao’s body was overdrawn and collapsed to the ground, only Taotie accompanied her.

She worked so hard to return to the Hidden Dragon Continent as soon as possible, to Xiu and Vermilion Bird’s side.

“Master, wait a little longer. Just wait a little longer.” For the first time, Taotie realized that his nearly omnipotent master also had such a soft side. Her care for Xiu and Vermilion Bird made her reveal a moment of vulnerability that had never been exposed to others. However, it was this persistence that made her stronger than anyone else.

“Vermilion Bird and the others… where are they?” Shen Yanxiao’s voice was a little hoarse. She did not even dare to easily say Xiu’s name, fearing that her suppressed yearning would completely collapse by saying his name.

“They have entered the border of the Howling Abyss and are rushing towards Hidden Dream City. They will arrive in five days at most. The Dragon God is very fast, faster than us.” Taotie pretended to be calm as he spoke. His pair of small hands had actually begun to tremble. He did not know how to appease Shen Yanxiao’s mood and could only hold her clumsily.

“Five days?” Shen Yanxiao repeated in a low voice.

“Yes, it will only take five days at most.”

“Taotie.”

“Master, I’m here.”

“Tell Vermilion Bird.”

“What?”

“I’ll wait for them in Hidden Dream City.” Shen Yanxiao raised her head. Her clear eyes had recovered their calmness and a smile blossomed on her lips.

“Yes!” Taotie smiled. He felt the joy in Shen Yanxiao’s heart.

Somewhere in the sky of the Howling Abyss, on the back of the dragon shrouded in huge light, Vermillion Bird tried hard to restrain his excitement. After calming down, he conveyed Shen Yanxiao’s words to the tall figure standing above the Dragon God.

A faint smile blossomed on his thin lips. It was just a faint smile, but it made the world lose its color.

“Xiaoxiao, wait for me for a few more days.”
