In the morning, as the sun gently lit the sky, Ye Tian opened his eyes to see Ye Linglong's face.
Ye Tian's bright eyes and cute little mouth made him adorable.
Ye Linglong, looking at him with golden starry eyes, couldn't contain her admiration.
"Little brother, you're so cute; sister loves you."
Ye Tian didn't resist and recalled a saying: "So-and-so is like life, since you can't resist, then enjoy it."
"Let's go, sister will take you to breakfast."
Ye Linglong hugged Ye Tian, intending to go for a meal.
Upon reaching his palace, they found an empty space with stone tables and chairs in the center.
Ye Linglong brought Ye Tian to the stone table surroundings, where various colored dishes emitted a strong fragrance.
The breakfast was diverse, with brightly colored spirit fruits undoubtedly belonging to the breakfast category.
"Who prepared this breakfast?"
"Though the flavor and color are excellent, it lacks attention to details."
"Probably a new chef."
Ye Linglong looked at the breakfast, licked a bite, and wondered if the God Emperor chose a newcomer chef for his little brother's meals.
Even Ye Tian in Ye Linglong's arms drooled looking at the dishes, despite being an eleven-day-old baby with no teeth.
At this moment, a woman in an apron emerged from the palace, with long crimson hair and agate-like eyes, holding a milk bottle.
It was Phoenix Ruoxi.
"Greetings to Young Lord," she bowed.
"Sister Linglong and Young Lord, this is the breakfast I prepared, I hope you find it appetizing."
Ye Linglong was surprised by how quickly Phoenix Ruoxi adapted to her new role.
"Understanding the young lord's difficulties, not having grown teeth yet, I can only eat milk."
"This is the milk I prepared for the young lord, extremely helpful for his growth."
Ye Linglong's eyes changed at the mention of the milk.
What kind of milk did you prepare for the young lord?
Ye Tian's eyes nearly became impure hearing Phoenix Ruoxi's words.
System, what are you guys talking about? This system can't understand.
Stolen novel; please report.
Phoenix Ruoxi corrected herself, "This is the milk I obtained from the Ye family's Royal Beast Hall this morning."
"I heard it's the milk of the ancient five-colored cow, focusing on the baby's growth."
When Ye Tian heard this, his eyes lit up, and he eagerly reached for the milk bottle.
Gazing at the milk bottle in Phoenix Ruoxi's hands, Ye Tian's eagerness to grab it was evident.
Not because he was gluttonous, but having his exclusive bottle of milk all day long had become tiresome.
This was an opportunity to taste the milk of the Ancient Five-Colored Cow from the Royal Beast Hall within the family.
Observing this, Ye Linglong chuckled, finding her little brother adorable.
Swiftly, she took the milk bottle from Phoenix Ruoxi, and Ye Tian hugged it, biting into it with evident enjoyment.
His throat rolled, expressing sheer satisfaction at the unexpectedly delicious Ancient Five-Colored Cow's milk.
Watching Ye Tian happily suck on the milk in her arms, Ye Linglong was content.
As Phoenix Ruoxi observed the naive and silly baby, she wondered if this was the same Young Lord who strengthened his flesh with Immortal Bone Energy the previous night.
Back then, the young lord was handsome and cute, tempting others to take a bite. Now, he clutched a milk bottle, appearing silly and naive.
The primary struggle seemed to be with gluttony.
Phoenix Ruoxi found it hard to believe this was the same person.
Internally, she pondered, "Maybe this is the young lord's strategy to deliberately conceal himself, build strength, and emerge victorious against all enemies one day. I just need to cooperate with him."
Ye Tian, with squinted eyes, reveled in comfort and enjoyment.
He mused, "This is the life of a man—to eat, drink, rest freely, lie flat, and sleep."
"Reach out for food, open arms for clothes, yes, I have to keep swinging for the fences."
"Anyway, there's an invincible background to cover for me."
Ye Linglong, taking her seat, savored the wonderful breakfast.
Addressing Phoenix Ruoxi, she inquired, "Is this your handiwork?"
"The eldest princess of an ancient country possesses such skills?"
Phoenix Ruoxi replied, "As the slave girl last night, I searched for cookbooks, thinking that since becoming the young master's maidservant, I should learn to take care of his daily life—eating, dressing, and more."
"Not bad; with such awareness, when the young master moves to his exclusive chambers, there's no need for the family to worry."
"At that time, the young lord's three meals a day will also be taken care of."
Ye Linglong nodded, acknowledging Phoenix Ruoxi's efforts in adapting quickly to her new role.
"In that case, this scripture can be handed over to you instead," Ye Linglong said casually.
Extending her slender jade hand, a scripture emerged above her palm, emitting an ancient and vast aura.
Crimson flames adorned the scripture, revealing a fiery red phoenix silhouette, wings outstretched, soaring over the heavens and earth.
Ye Tian, captivated by the sight, also gazed at the scripture.
"This Dao Scripture, known as the Phoenix Destruction Canon, is the Phoenix Clan's sacred heirloom, exclusively cultivable by the direct lineage."
"You carry the true blood of the phoenix, with pure original phoenix blood, cultivating the Phoenix Extermination Canon will yield remarkable results, paving your way on the path of the great Dao."
At the sight of the Phoenix Extermination Canon, Phoenix Ruoxi felt her Phoenix True Blood boiling, as if it craved it.
Yet, she looked at the Phoenix Extinction Codex in Ye Linglong's palm with disbelief. "Isn't this the Phoenix clan's sacred codex? It's impossible for an outsider to obtain it!"
"Hehe, in the Eternal Immortal Region, my Vanguard Ye Clan stands alone!"
"It's merely a sacred code, nothing worth fussing over."
Ye Linglong said with disdain, and her words left a bitter taste in Phoenix Ruoxi's ears.
Phoenix Ruoxi's pupils trembled slightly; the Phoenix Ancient Kingdom also sought the Phoenix Clan's sacred texts, divine abilities, and treasures to strengthen its national power.
After all, the Phoenix clan, on par with the ancient dragon and Qilin clans, was invincible.
Phoenix Ancient Kingdom's attempts to borrow met with rejection, with a simple "roll!"
Surprisingly, her father's dream of the sacred code was easily granted to her.
The depths of the Ancient Ye family were vast, like the sea and the abyss!
"I kneel to thank the family for the gift!"
"No need to thank the family and me; all of this is equivalent to what the Young Lord has bestowed upon you."
