But…
After hearing all those, Ji Fengyan started to frown. She recalled what Liu Huo had told her previously and finally understood.
This must be the reason why Liu Huo did not dare to reveal his identity.
With such a thought in mind, Ji Fengyan decided to return and properly interrogate that timid bat.
As it was still early, Zuo Nuo led Ji Fengyan and the others around in the mountains for a while and picked out some high quality wood. They chopped some wood down and Yang Jian carried them back personally.
When they returned to Ji City, it was already nightfall. After Ji Fengyan kept away the wood, she was not in a rush to craft a new body for Yang Jian. This time, she was more cautious with dealing with the wood before using them.
After feeding Xiao Tianquan, Ji Fengyan kept it inside a cage and carried the unconscious bat to her own room.
The little bat was already awake, but fear made him tremble continuously. He used his own wings to wrap its furry body and hid in one corner of the cage, leaving only its teary eyes looking at Ji Fengyan.
Bai Ze was curious about the bat and looked at it for a while through the cage. Even though Bai Ze was small, it was still considered “a huge creature” to the little bat. Seeing how the bat was about to faint again from Bai Ze’s gaze, Ji Fengyan could not help but laugh as she patted on Bai Ze’s head to ask her to stay at the side.
Then, Ji Fengyan opened the metal door to the cage and stepped back a little. She supported her chin with her arm as she looked at the frightened bat in the cage.
“Don’t be nervous. I won’t harm you.” Ji Fengyan smiled as she said to the bat.
The bat looked nervously at Ji Fengyan and his red eyes were filled with uneasiness.
Ji Fengyan saw that the bat did not dare to move and smiled. She decisively took out her dagger at her waist and made a small cut on her fingertip.
Fresh red blood on her fingertips instantly formed a round drop of blood and the blood stench entered the bat’s nose.
The bat’s eyes suddenly shone brightly as he instinctively wanted to take a step forward. But he curled up as though he was scared of something.
“You’re not going to eat? It’s very delicious.” Ji Fengyan used a gentle tone to tempt the bat. She waved the drop of blood on her fingertip in front of him, making the smell of blood even stronger.
The little bat used his own claws to rub his stomach. After an entire afternoon’s fright, he was indeed hungry.
Moreover, the smell of the blood was really tempting to him.
The little bat looked at Ji Fengyan hesitantly and seeing that she did not have any ill intentions, he then slowly crawled out of the cage. His furry body slowly moved to Ji Fengyan’s hand and seeing the drop of blood on Ji Fengyan’s fingertip, he looked up at Ji Fengyan anxiously.
Ji Fengyan nodded slightly to him. Then, the little brat reached out its claws and wrapped them around Ji Fengyan’s finger and stuck out his tongue to lick it.
When the blood entered his throat, the fragrance made the little bat so engrossed that he started to close his eyes.
Just when he was enjoying his delicious meal, Ji Fengyan suddenly said, “Eat more, when you grow up, your eyes will become bigger.”
After hearing what Ji Fengyan had said, the little bat that was originally engrossed was completely stunned. The claws that were wrapped around Ji Fengyan’s fingers started to shake and his eyes were filled with hopelessness.
