Shi Xiong saw this and felt a shiver in his heart, as if hearing a thunderbolt on a clear day.
He knew Yili's temperament well, like explosive gunpowder that ignites at the slightest spark. If he didn't chase after her now, big trouble might arise.
He quickly leaped, moving with the agility of a monkey, onto the back of the Vermilion Bird. The Vermilion Bird seemed to understand human urgency, let out a long cry that shook the fields, spread its wings, and flew in a red flame-like path toward the direction Yili had left.
In the sky, Shi Xiong chased after Yili while loudly calling out, "Madam, wait a moment! Please listen to me!"
The voice drifted in the wind, filled with urgency and earnestness.
Upon catching up with Yili, Shi Xiong slowed the Vermilion Bird's speed to fly alongside her.
