Zhi Zhi?” “Keke! Ji… Ji ji!”

“Squeak…

In a very hidden secret tree hole, there were two fiery red birds, one big and one small.

The former’s fiery red color was only the natural color of the wings and fur, but the latter’s fiery red color seemed to be moving, like real balls of swaying flames.

However, this did not stop the two young birds from communicating and playing. Right now, they each had a small tree branch in their beaks. One could see that there were more broken branches on the ground around them.

Crisp chattering sounds could be heard from the tree hole, as if they were discussing something. Then, amidst these sounds, the broken branches on the ground were pieced together to form the embryonic form of a bird’s nest.

However, the good times did not last long. The bird’s nest had only just been built, but there were clearly not many branches left in the tree hole. There was not enough.

“Chirp Chirp.” “Squeak! Squeak squeak!”

“Ji ji! Ji ji ji!”

The slightly larger red bird waved its wings at the tree hole as if it was saying goodbye. At this moment, the other red bird, which was slightly smaller but obviously extraordinary, wanted to step out of the tree hole and follow it to the outside world several times.

However, she hesitated for a few moments, but in the end, she did not dare to take this step. She could only stay at the edge of the cave and flap her wings with a slightly lonely and expectant expression.

From the looks of it, they looked very much like two children who had been dragged back by their parents after playing until evening. Then, they had agreed that they would come out to play again tomorrow.

Just like that, days passed. The bigger red bird never broke its promise. Every time, it would bring some branches from outside and come to the tree hole in the mystic realm that it had accidentally discovered.

Even though the number of branches he could pick up was limited, which made the efficiency very slow, the nest was gradually being completed over time.

However, perhaps this was a malicious joke made by life, or perhaps it was just so coincidental.

On the last day of completion…

“Huh?”

The mysterious red bird did not sleep for almost the entire night. It had been waiting by the tree hole early in the morning, waiting for the other party. However, the other red bird had not appeared at the appointed time.

As time passed, the little red bird began to become more and more anxious. It kept pacing around the edge of the tree hole. Unbeknownst to her, the temperature in the tree hole in the mystic realm seemed to have started to rise along with her emotions.

From the moment she was born, a voice told her that she could not leave this place. However, the redness on her body became more and more restless. In the end, it was as if she had really come alive and turned into a real flame. She gritted her teeth and broke through the warning in her mind. For the first time, she stepped out of the tree hole and came to the outside world.

She spread her tiny wings and began her first clumsy flight. She flew in the forest, trying to find the familiar red figure.

However, what she did not realize was that as she gradually moved her body, the redness on her body completely turned into flames. After flying over a place, she, who had yet to control her strength, would either scrape the flames on her body or stain them all over the forest.

“Ji!” Finally, she caught sight of that familiar figure. She flew towards him happily.

However…

“Squeak squeak! Squeak!” However, the other party looked at her as if she was a

stranger, and then revealed fear, panic, and even fear.

It flew away in front of her as if it was escaping, leaving only broken branches on the ground and… It was the corpse of a small monster that he had hunted with great difficulty.

When she didn’t understand and felt angry and wronged, she turned her head back desolately. When she saw the forest behind her that had turned into a sea of fire, she was stunned.

The trees in the sky collapsed under the flames, and the ground was set ablaze. Countless creatures in the forest fled in panic.

“Ji… Chirp… Ji ji ji… Ji!”

The more she shook her head and retreated in fear, the more unstable her emotions became. The more power seeped out of her body, and the monstrous flames seemed to devour even more forests.

At this moment, a sigh was heard.

In front of her was a hooded human woman whose appearance could not be seen clearly. Even though it was only the first time they met, the holy temperament of the other party and the motherly glow that she emitted made her not feel the slightest hostility. Even her originally fluctuating uneasiness was stabilized because of this.

“Sleep.”

“When you wake up, you will understand your own strength.

The human woman waved at her, and then she felt her eyelids start to twitch. Endless sleepiness surged up, and finally, her vision went black, and she fell into the other party’s arms.

He didn’t know how long he slept.

When she woke up again, she found herself back in the tree hole. The only difference was that her body was much bigger this time, and the small tree hole no longer had enough space.

Memories flooded her mind. Even though she was afraid to walk out of the tree hole and see that she had burned the outside world into a scorched forest, she still had no choice but to leave as her body grew bigger.

However, when she really walked out, what shocked her was that the lifeless wasteland did not appear in her imagination. In fact, it was the complete opposite. The forest that had been burned by her fire, after an unknown period of time, emitted a stronger vitality.

Under her flames, the giant tree in the sky had indeed fallen, but because it blocked the sunlight, it was about to die. Below it, a large area of vegetation had lost its vitality.

The ground had indeed been set ablaze, but the ashes of the fallen leaves and piles had turned into nutrients, making the land even more nutritious.

The reorganization of the ecosystem also attracted the migration of more and more monsters and beasts.

She was overjoyed at this scene. She was overjoyed, but soon, this joy slowly faded because she realized that no one could share this joy with her.

Because the only thing that hadn’t changed was the fear, panic, and fear of the other demons when they saw him.

She finally realized that she was different.

“One day, I believe that you will also have companions, but not now. “A familiar gentle voice rang out.

The holy and noble human woman from before appeared behind her lonely figure.

“Because before this, you have to learn to control your own power and find the meaning of your existence as a forbidden object.”

“Huh?”

“Yes… You have to learn how to speak before you can walk.” The mysterious woman under the hood paused for a moment before adding.

“Keke?”

“How about it? Are you willing to cultivate with me? I will teach you how to control your power, how to speak, and some basic knowledge.

“Ji… Ji ji ji!”

‘ No, no matter who it is, the ‘meaning of existence’ cannot be taught by others.

You can only rely on yourself to find it. ”

The little red bird, which was wrapped in flames, looked at the forest with reluctance for the last time and resolutely chose to fly to the shoulder of this mysterious human woman.

“Alright, from now on, you will be called… Xinyan..”
