Shen Yanxiao’s eyes were filled with the intent to kill, but she didn't do it in the end.

The five animals that were sitting to the side and watching the show were slightly worried. When Shen Yanxiao received the news, they were next to her, and so they came along.

The root of their worries regarding this pair of siblings was the viciousness of Shen Jiayi that they had witnessed during the school tournament.

Shen Yanxiao should never be soft on the two of them.

The matters in the Vermillion Bird Clan were not unknown to the five animals. But with their understanding of Shen Yanxiao, they estimated that these two brats were going to be unlucky.

However...

Putting Shen Jiayi aside for the time being, Shen Jiawei was now the only male child of the Vermillion Bird Clan left. Shen Duan, Shen Yue and Shen Yifeng were now all dead. Shen Siyu had no affinity with the Vermillion Bird Clan. Shen Ling had not yet been married. The only one who had the highest chances of continuing the family line of the Vermillion Bird Clan was Shen Jiawei.

If Shen Yanxiao was to really kill Shen Jiawei, it was tantamount to letting the Vermillion Bird Clan die without a heir...

The five animals’ backs were secretly covered in cold sweat.

Wasn’t it a bit cruel to destroy your own family line?

Shen Yanxiao did not speak up. She only thoughtfully stared at Shen Jiayi and Shen Jiawei. Qi Xia could not understand what she had in mind and could only look at her.

"Well, don’t you have quite the ability to actually find The Rising Sun City? The demons along the road did not try to eat you?" Shen Yanxiao slightly raised her eyebrows. She immediately used her poisonous tongue that could swiftly kill other people.

Shen Jiawei's body shuddered a little. He raised his head and looked at Shen Yanxiao. After looking at Shen Yanxiao's eyes, which were as cold as snow, he immediately dropped his head again and shivered from head to toe.

Shen Jiayi bit her lip and looked at Shen Yanxiao with a complex expression.

"It might have also been good if I were eaten; I didn't want to live any longer anyway." Shen Jiayi's dirty face had a wry smile on. One didn’t know whether the sarcasm in her eyes were for herself or for Shen Yanxiao.

"We... We didn't encounter demons on the road." Shen Jiawei shuddered as he tugged on Shen Jiayi's sleeves. Shen Jiayi's tone was very rude. He was worried that she would provoke Shen Yanxiao.

Shen Yanxiao raised an eyebrow. For them to not encounter the demons was only natural. After all, the demons next to the road leading to the Long Xuan Empire from The Rising Sun City and vice versa, were all deliberately avoiding humans. And that was because of her deterrent.

"What are you doing here?" Shen Yanxiao was still not sure if she should kill them or let them go.

Killing was her principle; but putting it aside, it was to preserve the bloodline of Shen Feng and the Vermillion Bird Clan.

Shen Jiayi wanted to speak more, but Shen Jiawei immediately pulled her little hand and pleaded with his eyes. Shen Jiayi gritted her teeth and nodded her head.

Shen Jiawei turned to Shen Yanxiao and said, "We have heard that Grandpa and fifth uncle are here in The Rising Sun City. We want to see Grandpa..."

Shen Yanxiao's mouth hooked up into a sneer.

"See Grandpa? What for? After all the crazy things that your father has done? Or do you think you two are innocent for just standing idly by?"

Shen Jiawei's face turned white.

"We know we’re wrong! We really know we’re wrong. We now just want to live in peace and stability, we don't want anything else. Please... Please be magnanimous and let us go to see Grandpa." Shen Jiawei's voice was quivering in tears. They now had nothing, not a warm home nor a loving father. All the glory and prosperity had become as transient as fleeting clouds. They were no more than beggars now.

“Oh?” Shen Yanxiao smiled coldly and said, “I'm curious. What kind of place did Shen Duan send you two? If you answer honestly, I may be able to send you to Grandpa.”
