God Destroying Pearl

Not long after, Song Yun was completely away from that area. He stopped and turned his gaze to the Suzaku in his arms.

The Vermilion Bird's feathers sparkle with colorful luster in the sun, and its eyes seem to contain endless spirituality.

"Where should I put you?" Song Yun asked softly, with a hint of reluctance in his tone.

Then he put Suzaku on the ground.

Upon hearing this, Suzaku gently flapped its wings, as if thinking about something.

Then, it said in an almost coquettish tone: "Seeing that you are being hunted so badly, I will be merciful and follow you reluctantly."

Song Yun stood in place, his eyes fixed on the little beast beside him that called itself Suzaku, complex emotions flashing in his eyes.

He slowly took a few steps forward and looked around Suzaku carefully, not missing a single detail, as if he wanted to see through the secrets hidden in this tiny body.

In his heart, an indescribable surprise and confusion intertwined, and he thought to himself: "There is such a good thing? It's really unexpected."

He knew very well how rare it was to meet a partner who was willing to follow him and had special abilities in this world full of dangers.

Although this little beast that called itself Vermillion Bird did not seem to have any cultivation and looked childish and harmless, Song Yun was keenly aware of its extraordinary qualities - especially its amazing early warning ability.

The Vermillion Bird seemed to see through Song Yun's thoughts. It scratched its head gently with its wings, with an innocent yet slightly cunning expression on its face.

"I don't have any cultivation now, so it's really too dangerous to stay here. However, I can follow you without any conditions, as long as you make sure I have enough food."

After saying this, it deliberately looked at Song Yun pitifully with its big, spiritual eyes.

Song Yun was amused by Zhuque's appearance, and most of the doubts in his heart disappeared.

"Aren't you afraid that I will eat you?"

"I can sense that you won't."

"Forehead…"

Song Yun thought for a moment, then said seriously: "Okay, since you are willing to follow me, then I will accept you. However, you have to promise me that you can't run around casually in the future and you have to follow my arrangements."

"of course!"

Zhuque immediately nodded rapidly and responded excitedly.

Then, Song Yun asked again: "By the way, my name is Song Yun. Do you have a name?"

Upon hearing this, Suzaku immediately raised its delicate little head, with a proud light flashing in its eyes.

Then, it replied in its clear and pleasant voice: "Didn't I tell you already? I am the immortal beast Suzaku. In the Suzaku clan, the king of each generation is honored as 'Suzaku', and I am the Suzaku who will become the only king, so my name is Suzaku."

After listening to Zhuque's explanation, Song Yun showed a puzzled expression on his face.

He remembered reading in ancient books that the Vermillion Bird was one of the four legendary fairy beasts and was usually regarded as a symbol of a race or totem rather than a specific individual.

So he asked tentatively: "But, isn't the Suzaku a race in the legend? Why do you sound like you are saying that you are the only representative of this race?"

Suzaku seemed to see Song Yun's confusion, and it patiently explained: "What do you know? Although the Suzaku clan is huge, there can only be one king at the same time. This king not only possesses great power, but is also the embodiment of wisdom and courage. And I am not only a member of the Suzaku clan, but also the future king. My name is Suzaku."

After listening to Zhuque's explanation, Song Yun was speechless. Although he was still a little confused, he was also infected by Zhuque's firm belief and lofty ambitions.

However, he changed his mind and felt that calling it "Suzaku" now seemed a bit too ostentatious. After all, it was not yet the true king of fairy beasts.

So, he smiled helplessly and suggested: "Well, since you are so confident that you will become the future king, I can't say anything. But you are not a fairy beast yet, so we should keep a low profile. How about I change your name?"

Upon hearing this, Zhuque seemed stunned for a moment, then said, "Okay, then you give me one!"

"You eat so well, how about calling you Fatty?"

"You are fat. I am well-developed. Okay? This name is not okay."

"Uh, so I call you Xiao Fei?"

"Are you jealous of the good food I eat? Change it."

After Song Yun pondered for a moment, he slowly said, "Since you are the fairy beast Suzaku, and you are so smart and cute, I will call you 'Spirit Bird'. What do you think?"

"Spirit Bird? Well, this is barely acceptable!" Zhuque nodded his little head when he heard it.
