The Lazy Demon King Definitely Won’t Meet the Retired Sword Saint – Chapter 489

Chapter: Chapter 493

Stepping into the temple where the statue of the Phoenix Bird was enshrined, Yuan’s expression finally changed for a moment.

The annoying voice in her mind rang out again, this time sounding confused as to why she was in this place.

But compared to when she was still an egg, the voice this time was much more blurred, and Yuan had to strain herself to understand the meaning conveyed by the bird’s cry.

Gently waving her hand backward, Yuan signaled for the beastmen following behind her to withdraw from the temple.

“This…” The pigeon chief hesitated.

But after Yuan turned back and glared at him, he didn’t dare say anything more and obediently lowered his head and withdrew from the temple.

I almost forgot that this seemingly ordinary young lady was actually a human-shaped ferocious beast. If she wanted to drive them out, could he say anything?

After all the irrelevant people in the temple had withdrawn, a dark spatial rift opened up beside Yuan, and Leticia emerged from the divine artifact space with great alertness, surveying the statue enshrined in the center of the temple.

Yuan carefully approached Leticia, hugged the Demon King’s young lady’s arm, and gently rubbed her face against it.

“Eh, Yuan, be careful, your makeup will smudge.” Leticia raised an eyebrow as she noticed white marks suddenly appear on her black sleeve.

For some reason, this little girl was particularly fond of sticking to her.

She was cute like a kitten, but it made Leticia a little unaccustomed to it.

“Mm?” Yuan looked at Leticia with confusion, not understanding why Leticia’s expression suddenly became unhappy.

“Forget it, why argue with a little thing like you.” Looking at Yuan’s innocent little face, Leticia helplessly summoned a bit of mental energy, asking Yuan to squat aside and eat snacks.

She had more important things to do.

Yuan, who received the colored light cluster from Leticia, immediately became happy. This was why she liked sticking to Leticia; every time she got this close to Leticia, she would receive these delicious things.

Thus, a simple equation was formed in Yuan’s little brain: as long as she stuck to Leticia, she would get delicious food.

So, whenever she had the chance, she would come over to stick to Leticia.

Leticia, of course, was unaware of Yuan’s little plan. She simply thought that Yuan just liked her, her big sister, and she didn’t dislike this affection.

“Is this the statue of the Phoenix? It looks quite different from her true form.” Looking up at the large bird painted with golden pigment, Leticia gave a rather unflattering evaluation.

Although the Phoenix was her enemy, Leticia wouldn’t deny that the Phoenix’s true form looked quite handsome and divine. That fiery Phoenix bird that covered the sky and earth was much better looking than this statue.

“There’s actually a trace of spiritual power residing in it, which is a bit strange.”

Flying to the front of the statue, Leticia waved her hand, and a wisp of golden light was forced out of the statue by a hand made of colorful mist.

This wisp of golden light was held by the hand made of colorful mist, struggling hard and trying to resist.

The noisy scolding made Leticia a bit annoyed. She stared at the golden light held in her hand with a cold expression.

Should she crush it directly, or what?

It seemed useless to keep it, so crushing it directly would be better.

With Yuan as a trump card in hand, Leticia had no interest in cultivating another wisp of the Phoenix’s consciousness. Yuan was a cute little girl like a blank sheet of paper.

But what was this wisp of the Phoenix’s consciousness?

It was just a malevolent spirit controlled by resentment.

“Sister! Sister!” Just as Leticia was about to crush the golden light completely, Yuan, who had finished her dessert, hopped over.

This little guy has quite an appetite. The amount of mental power I gave her just now was not small. Leticia stopped what she was doing, returned to the ground, and rubbed Yuan’s head, “What a little foodie…”

Wait, if my mental energy can be digested by Yuan, then can the Phoenix’s mental energy also be digested by Yuan?

She could try it. This wisp of consciousness was extremely weak. Even if Yuan had a stomachache, Leticia would have a way to deal with it.

“Yuan, do you think this thing is edible?” Leticia asked gently, presenting the wisp of golden light to Yuan.

Is this thing edible? Yuan looked at the golden light that was still scolding forcefully and subconsciously shook her head.

She thought this thing probably wouldn’t taste good, and its voice was so unpleasant, so its taste must be bad too.

“It probably doesn’t taste good,” Yuan said to Leticia via the mental channel.

“Let’s try it, maybe it tastes great?” Leticia began to coax Yuan to try it, maybe this golden light was actually a crab?

Taking the golden light handed over by Leticia, Yuan still had some reluctance on her face, but out of trust for Leticia, she still opened her mouth.

A phantom Phoenix bird appeared behind her, which was the manifestation of her spirit. It looked not much different from the Phoenix illusions Leticia had seen before, except for a very obvious childishness in her brows.

When she grows up, she should be as majestic and domineering as the Phoenix.

This little bird lowered its head, grabbed the wisp of golden light, and swallowed it with a toss of its head.

“Mmm…” As soon as the golden light was swallowed, Yuan’s expression became painful. She covered her head, her brows furrowed, and cold sweat continuously seeped from her forehead.

Her condition seemed a bit off.

Leticia quickly hugged Yuan, letting her lie on her knees, and gently infused her body with colorful mist, enveloping the divine bone that was constantly emitting heat.

“Close your eyes, calm your mind, and don’t resist my power.”

Leticia’s gentle voice echoed in Yuan’s ears, and Yuan, whose thoughts were a bit chaotic, miraculously calmed down. Following Leticia’s request, Yuan gradually felt a bit sleepy.

When the drowsiness came, it was incredibly strong. All other thoughts in her mind were kicked away by the desire to sleep. Yuan closed her eyes, and her breathing gradually became steady.

After all, this was a dream-entering spell cast by the god who controlled dreams themselves.

Yuan had entered the dream, and Leticia also closed her eyes. She quickly found the dream belonging to this girl, and then unceremoniously kicked open the door to the dream, wanting to see what was wrong with Yuan’s spiritual world.

As soon as she entered Yuan’s dream, Leticia saw two fiery large birds fighting.

One was the Phoenix, and the other was Yuan.

The more naive Yuan was pinned down by the Phoenix, and seemed to have no ability to resist. No wonder she had looked so uncomfortable just now.

It was strange, though. Yuan’s spiritual strength was much stronger than this wisp of the Phoenix’s consciousness, but she had no ability to resist and was being dominated by the Phoenix.

The sharp beak pierced straight towards the Yuan below. The Phoenix seemed to be showing no mercy, even though the one pinned beneath her could potentially be her own reincarnation.

Yuan’s combat experience was still insufficient. Although she had superior physical fitness, she was still firmly suppressed by the Phoenix. Facing the Phoenix’s pecking attacks, she could only dodge by turning her head.

“Yuan, don’t be afraid, you can beat her!” Leticia shouted at Yuan, forming her hands into a trumpet shape.

She could see that Yuan was being suppressed not only because the child lacked combat experience but also because she lacked the courage to fight.

Even when treated like this by the Phoenix, Yuan’s counterattacks were still a bit held back, and her strength was used very little.

While working on Yuan’s mindset, Leticia also reached out and summoned a colorful rope.

This was a dream, and it was her domain as the god of dreams. It was simple to create something out of nothing, wasn’t it?

Throwing the rope towards the Phoenix, the colorful rope coiled around the Phoenix’s neck and wings like a living snake. Then, with a slight tug from Leticia, she pulled the Phoenix off Yuan.

“Traitor! Ungrateful bastard! You will die a horrible death!” Bound and pulled away by the colorful rope created by Leticia, the Phoenix still tried to crazily attack the battered Yuan on the ground.

“Be quiet!” Leticia’s head was buzzing from the noise, and she decisively flung the noisy large bird away with all her might.

A bird dozens of meters tall was flung into the distance by a one-and-a-half-meter-tall young girl as if she were throwing garbage. The bird’s eyes, full of wisdom, were instantly filled with confusion.

What’s going on? Why am I flying?

Oh my, where did this mountain come from?

Boom!

The Phoenix’s head crashed directly into a mountain that had just risen a few seconds ago, entering a period of dizziness of unknown duration.

Temporarily dealing with the annoying guy, Leticia took a few small leaps and landed in front of Yuan. Seeing the surprise flash in Yuan’s eyes, which were even larger than her own, Leticia felt a pang of guilt.

After all, Yuan was only about a month old. Making her fight the Phoenix’s consciousness like this was indeed asking too much of the child.

However, this was a hurdle that Yuan had to overcome.

Was she supposed to let Yuan remain in this incomplete state forever? She would eventually have to return to the consciousness of that large egg, wouldn’t she?

When the life nurturing in the large egg matured, the Phoenix’s consciousness would seize the body of that newborn life. This was something that didn’t even need to be thought about to determine; only then could the Phoenix be considered to have been resurrected from death.

In that case, there would inevitably be a battle between Yuan’s (the large egg’s) consciousness and the Phoenix, and the outcome of this battle could also be predicted.

Yuan was too naive and was no match for the Phoenix.

And now, this was a golden opportunity to change this situation. At the very least, she couldn’t let Yuan develop a fear of the Phoenix. At the very least, she needed to teach Yuan how to resist and attack.

“Yuan, get up!” Leticia put away her tender emotions, her eyes gradually becoming resolute. “Go and defeat the Phoenix!”

Yuan’s big eyes blinked, revealing fear.

When controlling the body Leticia had created for her, she couldn’t feel pain, but just now, she had truly felt pain.

Her iron-like claws had left wounds on her undeveloped wings, and her still tender feet had been attacked as well, almost breaking. These sensations made Yuan want to tremble and escape.

She didn’t want to fight, she didn’t want to feel this pain anymore.

But Leticia slapped her on the forehead fiercely, “Don’t be afraid, I’m right here.”

As she spoke, Leticia controlled the colorful mist to repair the wounds on Yuan, and in the dream world, her mental power was omnipotent and could transform into anything.

After a few breaths, Yuan’s wounds disappeared. As the pain disappeared, Yuan’s courage finally returned.

“This guy is the enemy you will have to face in the future. She wants to snatch your body and devour you to become her food!” Leticia said to Yuan, “Do you want to keep hiding here and not face this destined mortal enemy?”

My body? Yuan blinked. Which body?

“That egg, that’s your true body, isn’t it?” Leticia saw Yuan’s confusion and her expression became somewhat helpless. She began to explain.

Actually, she didn’t know how to differentiate between the large egg and Yuan now. When Yuan returned to the large egg, she didn’t know who would be left at the end.

But these were all things for later. If the large egg couldn’t defeat the Phoenix’s consciousness, then everything considered now would be useless.

All ulterior motives were based on defeating that Phoenix guy!

Oh, that’s right! I’m still an egg! Yuan remembered.

So this guy had ill intentions towards me and used to scold me. She really is a bad egg then!

She completely believed Leticia’s words. After all, Leticia gave her delicious food, took care of her, and spoke to her gently. She felt that this was much better than that guy who liked to go crazy in her ears.

Sister Leticia wouldn’t lie to me. She had this subconscious belief.

So, I must defeat this guy and not disappoint Sister Leticia!

Struggling to get up from the ground, Yuan flapped her wings, and golden flames ignited from her body. Fighting spirit reappeared in her heart.

Even though she was young, she was still a god, a once valiant god!

“Chirp!” Letting out a high-pitched cry, Yuan pounced towards the still dizzy Phoenix.

It was at this moment that Leticia broke the Phoenix’s dizziness, allowing the bird, which was almost as large as Yuan, to regain consciousness.

And the first thing the Phoenix saw upon regaining consciousness was Yuan, who she had just pinned down and dominated, clawing towards her head.

How childish, how full of flaws. The Phoenix had already thought of no less than ten ways to counterattack.

But just as she was about to react, she found her body becoming incredibly stiff. Her originally nimble movements seemed to be slowed down several times, and she could only watch helplessly as Yuan’s fiery claws landed on her body, drawing a bloody mark.

Why? Why can’t my body be controlled?

The Phoenix couldn’t understand, and the fierce pursuit launched by Yuan gave her no time to think about these problems.
