The Strongest Omni Traveler

Li Mingyu hovered above a 10,000 miles radius island floating high above the sea.

The island was a beauty of its own and might make other people kneel in worship for it exudes a mysterious aura.

The island was surrounded by other six islands that seems to be covered in thick mist, while smaller islands was scattered rigth about everywhere, like a star in a clear night sky.

But infront of Li Mingyu's eyes, they are not something that would make it special of some sort.

Li Mingyu continued hovering high on the sky as her Phoenix-like eyes stared fixed at a figure within a pavilion as it sat in a lotus position.

Li Mingyu felt something that rather peaked her curiousity when she used her sense as it covered the entire planet earlier and found this place.

Li Mingyu had her own ways to have fun.

As the hailed Phoenix Immortal Empress that rules 2 of the 13 continents of the Tenth World, she does not have much time to have fun.

As an Immortal that lived for more than a billion years, she had already explored everywhere she could in the so-called Cycling Verse.

Now that she is out, away from her duties, she might as well do everything that could make her happy.

Of course, staying away from the Loli Goddess, the Glutton Empress, the Unreasonable Golden Haired Idiot called Lin Xie is one of them.

Though, she also likes being with her all the time as they always fights in every way, Li Mingyu also wanted to have a rest and away from Lin Xie some times, lest she also gains the Attribute called Idiocy and that is not something funny.

She already knew just how much of an idiot the Teacher Disciple Duo was and she would never become the third one.

Definitely not!

Li Minyu could tell that there was a grand array meant for protection and every small and the other islands was a part of it.

Though, such an array is just some thing like a paper and could just destroy it if she felt like so.

But she did not destroy it and change her gaze into something else.

'This bird is not a Phoenix? What is it? Why does it have a Phoenix Blood?'

Curious, Li Mingyu disappeared and appeared infront of the big bird, staring at it like a material to be piece by piece and be studied.

The big bird was a Vermillion Bird, but Li Mingyu did not know about it as she only knows Phoenix and have the Bloodline of a Phoenix.

In the Cycling Verse, she had never seen a bird like Vermillion Bird and this is her first time seeing one, hence, her curiousity.

Li Mingyu and the Vermillion Bird stared at each other.

The Vermillion Bird tilted its huge head "Pruurr?"

Li Mingyu tilted her head on the other side then, "I'm Li Mingyu. Why do you have a Phoenix Bloodline?" she asked in curiousity.

The Vermillion Bird stood up, unfurled its wings and showing its majestic body and realease an exited screech.

The Vermillion Bird felt that it has met its Ancestor in human form for it felt the Pure Bloodline of Phoenix in Li Mingyu's body, making it excited and not turn hostile.

"Vermillion? So you are Vermillion Bird that came from linege of a long line of the Phoenix? Is that right?"

Li Mingyu's head tilted more, lost in deep thought.

Fishing out a jake token from her spatial ring, she called her Godfather, Silver.

"Godfather, what is a Vermillion Bird?" She asked after Silver answered.

Crack.

Silver's head poke out from the void. Seeing Li Mingyu he asked, "Yu'er, did you just say Vermillion Bird? Where?"

Li Mingyu was already used on how Silver appears and disappears all the time.

His head poking out from a crack on the void is nothing new.

"Yes. Godfather, turn around and you can see it." Li Mingyu said.

Silver's head turned then back. "It really is a Vermillion Bird. I think they are failed products."

"Wait! Are you in Divine Phoenix Island?"

Silver remembered that there is only one place in this planet to have Vermillion Birds and Divine Phoenix Island is the name of that place.

Li Minyu once again tilted her head now on the other side. "Divine Phoenix Island? Godfather, I don't know." she replied.

"Oh. Okay. Don't let Lin Xie learn of this place, she might come and catch some of them." Silver reminded. Not worried about Li Mingyu but worried about Lin Xie.

If that glutton hears of Vermillion Bird, she might or more likely would definitely come and catch some for a taste.

Crack!

"Teacher, teacher. You called?"

A golden haired head poked out from the void and asked.

Silver and Li Mingyu stared in shock.

How?

Orange flames with a tint of purple covered Li Mingyu instantly after Lin Xie spoke.

"Loli Goddess, I advice you to go back where you come from or I will make you go bald." Li Mingyu threathened.

Munch* Munch*

Lin Xie seemed to have not heard Li Mingyu's warning and took a piece of meat and started munching on it as she looked at the Vermillion Bird.

"Is that bird tasty?" She asked.

Silver facepalmed.

Knowing that if Lin Xie and Li Mingyu started a fight, it would definitely won't stop as long as one of them stands down.

Quickly thinking on how to solve the problem, Silver said, "Lin Xie, if you eat that bird, it will make your tummy ache for days and you won't be able to eat!"

Horror struck Lin Xie's face.

The Vermillion Bird felt like heaving a HEAVY SIGH OF RELIEF.

"R-really?" Lin Xie asked.

Good thing teacher warned me if not... I won't be able to eat for days. I don't want that!'

'But I wonder how it taste like?'

"Yes. Why not asked your disciple to cook some birds for you? That way you won't have any problems." Silver suggested.

'Good thing Lin Xie can still be fooled easily.'

'But I wonder how it taste like?'

"Teacher is right! I'll ask Lin Ming to cook birds for me now! See you later Teacher, Little Sister!" Lin Xie bade her farewells and went to ask her disciple to cook her some bird dishes.

Seeing Lin Xie went away, Silver and Li Mingyu both heave a sigh of relief, the Vermillion Bird stared in confusion.

"Godfather. Did Big Sister really took a disciple?" Li Mingyu asked.

Silver nodded. "She did, how she teaches him I won't intervene. Well, I have to go now my cute little goddaugther." Silver also bade her farewell after ruffling Li Mingyu's hair.

The cracks on the void disappeared after the two idiots left.

Li Mingyu once again looked at the Vermillion Bird, her eyes now with pity.

'Failed Product...'

Fishing out a roasted fish that she uses to feed the Phoenixes in her territory and the secret realm, Li Mingyu gave it to the Vermillion Bird.

The Vermillion Bird looked overjoyed when it smelled the aroma coming from what seemed to have just been roasted fish and took it into its mouth.

Li Mingyu sat beside the Vermillion bird as she continued feeding it a fish after another...

Hours later...

Li Mingyu rested on the cofortable feathers of the Vermillion bird, both of their eyes closed, seemingly in harmony and at peace.

Suddenly, the Vermillion Eyes abruptly opened as a figure of a woman wearing a red dress came calling.

"Little Flame, Little Flame, where are you? Its way passed your feeding time. Come and eat now."

Her voice was melodious like a songbird. Gentle and pleasing to ears.

The Vermillion Bird did not respond, not wanting to disturb the True Pheonix resting in its feathers.

"Little Flame, why won't you answer? Is something wrong?"

The woman's gentle and pleasing voice neared and soon stood on the ground while looking at the Vermillion Bird worriedly.

Floating up and stopping infront of the Vermillion Bird, she wanted to see if there was anything wrong with her Contracted Beast.

But when she saw the little girl sleeping atop the Vermillion Bird her eyebrows furrowed.

"Little Flame you... Where did you kidnapped that little girl!?"

The Vermillion Bird felt wronged.

She was just here resting and the little girl came followed by two people who went away as soon as they came.

I did not kidnapped her!

The Vermiliion Bird shook her head wanting to say she did not kidnapped the little girl and explain how the little girl came out of nowhere but just failed to do so since the woman cannot understand her unlike the little girl restop atop her.

The woman seeing her contracted beast shaking its head asked, "You did not kidnapped her? Then where did she came from?" She wondered.

The Vermillion Bird once again shook its head then tilted its head wanting to say she also did not know.

"Mmmmm. Why is it shaking? And who's so noisy? Can't you see this Empress resting?"

Li Mingyu's voice resounded startling the Vermillion Bird and quickly wanted to apologize.

The woman who looked in ther 20's stared at Li Mingyu as she slowly got up.

Li Mingyu was used to sleeping without disturbance in all her life. This is the first time her sleep was disturb and she was irritated.

The young woman chuckled at Li Mingyu's word and how she spoke of the word Empress. "Little Empress, can you tell me where you came from? I am Mu Qianyu."

Li Migyu rubbed her eyes cutely and stared at the beautiful young woman in front of her.

'Vermillion Blood?' She was able to instantly tell that the beautiful young woman in front of her posses the bloodline of a Vermillion. Although diluted and small, she was still startled.

But being called Little Empress did not sound good to her.

Her body instantly got engulfed in orange flames with a tint of purple.

Her body grew into that of a 26-27 year old woman. Slowly revealing her world toppling beauty far surpassing the beauty of Mu Qianyu.

Her Immortal Emperor's Majestic Aura made the whole world wanting to kneel in reverence.

Her voice soothing and gentle but full of unprecedented autority. "I am not a Little Empress. I am The Phoenix Empress, Li Mingyu!"

"Little girl, tell me, why do you have a Vermillion Bloodline? Are you a descendant of one?"
