Luo Zheng watched from the side, brimming with envy. "I raised them for years, but they never acted like this with me."
Seeing the intimate bond between the Elf Birds and Cheng Zongyang, a wave of helplessness washed over him. He had poured a great deal of effort into raising these two Elf Birds, yet they had never shown him such affection.
Cheng Zongyang smiled. "This is completely different." His smile carried a sense of pride and satisfaction; he shared a special bond with these two Elf Birds.
"Can you confer an edict upon them?" he asked the Ring Spirit in his mind.
"I can," the Ring Spirit replied. It now possessed the Ability to do so.
Cheng Zongyang looked down at the two little creatures and asked softly, "Do you want to take human form?"
Seeming to understand his words, they immediately bobbed their little heads up and down, their eyes sparkling with excitement and yearning.
