Chapter 1623: Eggs of the Dragon and the Phoenix
âStop the nonsense⊠I didnât eat anything from the dragon or the phoenixâŠâ The old man weakly said, staring at Ye Xiao, âI am telling the truth. I didnât eat the dragonâs liver or the phoenixâs gutsâŠâ
âI doubt it! I deeply doubt it!â Ye Xiao was angry. âIf you didnât mess with the Dragon Clan and the Phoenix Clan, why would they send thousands of men to kill you? Look⊠Listen⊠How far away is the Glaze Sky? Who are the Purple Dragon King and the Golden Phoenix King? Why would they come all this way to find you if you didnât offend them? Stop lying to me!â
The old man weakly said, âI⊠Well⊠I must have⊠I definitely didnât eat the dragonâs liver or the phoenixâs gutsâŠâ
âYou didnât eat them. Fine. What do you mean?â Ye Xiao was surprised.
âWhy does he keep mentioning the liver and the guts?â
âI did not eat any liver or gutsâŠâ The old man repeated, but this time, he sounded tougher.
Ye Xiao came up with an idea, and he said, âYou didnât eat any liver or guts⊠Well⊠You must have eaten something that you shouldnât have, right? What is it? Say it!â
The old man turned weak as he heard Ye Xiao. With hesitation, he said, âWell⊠Youâre probably going to get something to eat when you are really hungry, donât you? What is wrong about that? Nobody should starve!â
Ye Xiao knew that he had the right guess, so he felt awkward. He said, âGo on!â
The old man became weaker. âWell⊠Is trying to get yourself fed that serious of an offense? I was so hungry⊠I was starving⊠And I heard that it was delicious⊠So⊠I just⊠IâŠâ
Ye Xiao kept both of his eyes widely opened. He knew something must have gone wrong. âCanât you just say it? What was it? What happened? What did you eat? Just say it! Didnât you say you didnât eat any liver or guts? Was it even more serious than liver and guts?â
âWell, it is not that important⊠I heard that the phoenixâs egg tasted goodâŠâ The old manâs lips twisted, and he continued, âSo I thought I should get an egg for myself⊠I was just going after the phoenix egg, not the dragonâs eggâŠâ
Ye Xiao was shocked. He stared at the audacious old man.
âDid he mean he took the dragonâs egg as well?â
âI didnât think that⊠Well⊠The egg⊠You know⊠I took the egg that belonged to the Golden Phoenix KingâŠâ The old man looked upset. âI thought it was some egg of some ordinary phoenixâŠâ
âYou f*cking bullsh*t!â
Ye Xiao couldnât help it anymore. âSome egg of some ordinary phoenix? Would you really risk that much to get some ordinary egg?â
He just wanted to scold the old man so much!
âYou canât blame meâŠâ The old man said, âThere were two eggs at the same place⊠A phoenix usually only lays one egg. I saw two eggs⊠so I guessed those eggs werenât that importantâŠâ
Ye Xiao felt something wrong, so he asked, âDid you say there were two eggs at the same place?â
âThatâs correct⊠I thought they werenât important, so I ate them bothâŠâ The old man looked sad. âThat was followed by the tragedy⊠One of the eggs belonged to the Golden Phoenix King, and the other belonged to the Purple Dragon King⊠They put the two eggs together because they wanted to make the two babies a pair in the future⊠Well⊠I didnât know, did I?â
Ye Xiao felt dizzy, and he finally fell to the floor and couldnât get up!
âHoly hell⊠It would be much better if you just ate some liver and guts⊠You ate a dragon and a phoenix! You killed the prince and princess of the Dragon Clan and the Phoenix Clan! Give me one reason why they shouldnât hunt you down! They have all the right to kill you!â
The old man complained and said, âDo you understand, kid? Come on. Tell me you understand. They shouldnât put the two eggs at the same place! It was as if they were tempting me! People would definitely think they were some inconsequential eggs! Besides, I was starving⊠How was I supposed to control myselfâŠâ
Ye Xiao held his own forehead and said, âStop! Stop now! Donât you explain anymore! You canât cover this up! You did it! You know it! You canât explain yourself out of this!â
He was so sad about what happened. âI finally know what you have done⊠Please, donât call me a kid anymore. I am scared. You ate a dragon baby and a phoenix baby! That scares the sh*t out of me!â
âHow can you say that, kid! That is not what you said! I didnât mean to kill anybody. Besides, those were eggs. I ate two eggs, not babies⊠There is a huge differenceâŠâ The old man still tried to explain. In fact, he knew he was fooling himself!
âNo wonder they are after youâŠâ Ye Xiaoâs head was throbbing with pain. âI know what huge trouble I have brought myself into⊠Oh, heavens⊠Oh, earth⊠I shouldnât have saved you⊠I am helping the bad guyâŠâ
The old man seemed to be embarrassed too. He said, âKid, donât blame yourself. I did eat the eggs⊠Well, they have hunted me down⊠Thousands of them⊠I almost died⊠If you didnât save me, I should have died!â
âPah! They should do much more than just hunt you down! They should have killed you out there! You shouldnât be alive! The world wants you dead!â
Ye Xiao was furious. âEven killing you with thousands of cuts and torturing you for ten thousand years is not enough to punish you for your sin! You have brought me, the Hall of Life and Death, and the Monarchâs Hall down to the trouble you made! I was wrong⊠I must be blind⊠Why would I decide to help you? I was blind⊠I thought too unbelievably high of you!â
The old man looked at Ye Xiao and gently said, âI am flattered⊠Well, you arenât blind⊠I know you blame me! We are all cultivators in the martial world⊠We should always help the person in need in the martial world. You are a good kid. You would surely save me! Come on⊠There is an old saying, which is good⊠A smile erases all hatredâŠâ
âHoly hell⊠If anybody dares to say that I am invincible as a talker, I would kill him immediately. This old man showed me what an invincible talker is like⊠He is more shameless than anybody else I know! His skin is thicker than the wall of the city!
âYou actually ate the son and the daughter of others, and now you are telling me a smile erases all hatredâŠ

âWhat the hell is wrong with you?â
Ye Xiao had a conclusion. If the old manâs cultivation power was as strong as his shamelessness, he should be the strongest person in the Human Realm Upon Heavens!
âFine⊠Letâs move on⊠Just tell me⊠Who are you? I may go to hell because of you, but at least I deserve to know your name, donât I?â Ye Xiao weakly said.
