Who Stole My Eggs?

Ominousness and abandonment had become a curse that haunted Feng Yi throughout his life.

The phoenix was the male, the phoenix was the female, and the phoenix clan regarded the female phoenix as their revered one. White, green, purple, gold, and red colours distinguished the phoenix. Impure feather colours meant that the bloodline was impure, and the inheritance from the ancestors could not be well obtained. It also meant that one had unsatisfactory parents who crossed each other to produce offspring with such messy feather colours.

Feng Yi had the most noble phoenix mother. His phoenix mother was the most powerful and beautiful white phoenix in the history of the Phoenix clan. The feathers on her body did not even have a trace of colour. She was the king of the Phoenix clan, having conquered the endless wars of the Phoenix clan and firmly occupied the beautiful Western Heaven.

But he had the most miserable phoenix father. His phoenix father was not only the lowest-status colourful phoenix, but also a sinful phoenix who had become a showman.

It was just that Father Feng’s body was graceful. Even the Phoenix clan, which was famous for its beautiful appearance, rarely had such good looks. His mother had no feelings for him, but she heard that he was the most beautiful phoenix, so she took possession of him with a domineering mentality. After one night of love, she abandoned him without any regret.

Unexpectedly, his mother had become pregnant this time. His mother had lived for tens of thousands of years and had longed for her own heir but had never been able to do so. She was ecstatic when she found out she was pregnant.

The first thing she did afterward was to kill Feng Yi’s father. Father Feng, who had become a plaything of the female phoenixes, would become a shame to the future heirs and had to die.

His mother was full of anticipation, and the day of delivery finally arrived. She never expected that she would lay a fire phoenix egg. The entire phoenix egg was surrounded by phoenix karma fire, which rolled down from the body of his mother and enveloped her in an instant.

The terrible phoenix karma fire severely burned his mother. Her proud white phoenix feathers were burnt black and withered, and her face was also burned by the karma fire, becoming hideous and ugly.

After his mother escaped from the fire, she was furious and asked the high priest to come and do divine calculation. The high priest was there to determine whether the phoenix egg was a male phoenix or an ominous phoenix that would bring disaster to the entire Phoenix clan.

Feng Yi’s mother abandoned him without hesitation, and she personally threw Feng Yi into the filthiest place of the Phoenix clan. His mother regarded Feng Yi as her eternal shame. After that, she doted on other male phoenixes and gave birth to two male and three female phoenixes one after another. It was just that, perhaps as punishment for her lack of affection, Feng Yi’s three sisters were all colourful phoenixes, and none of them could accept her inheritance. His mother was greatly stimulated, and her temper became even more extreme and violent.

Until the heavenly tribulation came, his mother could not survive it and was wiped out in the thunder, with deep unwillingness and resentment.

These were all told by the high priest after Feng Yi returned to his clan.

Before returning to the Phoenix Clan, Feng Yi’s life had been simple and happy. He was the only one hatched by Heavenly Father, and he was the second child in that family. Heavenly Father was not a gentle and meticulous person, but he was easy-going and sincere in his treatment of others. It was very comfortable to live with him.

But the good times didn’t last long. Not long after, Heavenly Father had driven him away and asked him to return to the Phoenix Clan.

Feng Yi was puzzled. He had no impression of the Phoenix Clan and no sense of belonging. There was no home for him there, and he didn’t want to go back.

As many times as Heavenly Father chased him away, he caught up with him. Until Heavenly Father had really become angry. The anger of the Heavenly Father had been so terrifying. Young Feng Yi was laying on the ground trembling under the pressure of Heavenly Father, unable to stand up at all.

Looking at Wu Xiao making faces at him next to Heavenly Father, and then looking at Heavenly Father’s cold expression, Feng Yi finally understood that if he continued to be entangled, he would completely lose Heavenly Father.

Feng Yi accepted his fate, bid farewell to his Heavenly Father honestly, spread his wings, and flew back to the west.

The sycamore forest in the west was his clan’s land, and even if no one led the way, his instinct guided him back.

But what could he do if he went back?

The new Phoenix King was Feng Yi’s eldest sister, Huang Yi. She had mediocre qualifications, but her arrogant and haughty temperament followed their mother.

Huang Yi was very afraid of Feng Yi and didn’t want to accept him, but she had to let him return due to clan rules.

Feng Yi spent the darkest three hundred years under her rule.

At that time, what Feng Yi looked forward to most was the fifteenth day of every month when he could go see Heavenly Father.

Before going out, Feng Yi always tidied himself up decently, but the injuries Huang Yi gave him were all in conspicuous places, and some of them couldn’t be covered up with magic power.

Heavenly Father didn’t allow him to get close to him, and his attitude toward him was neither warm nor indifferent. But every time Feng Yi left, he could always find healing ointments and pills in his sleeves.

Heavenly Father was always hard-spoken and soft-hearted.

Later, Feng Yi heard the prophecy about himself from the high priest and also learned about the tragedy of his mother and father. Feng Yi didn’t have much yearning or expectation for his parents, whom he had never met before, but he somewhat understood why his Heavenly Father had alienated him. Was it because he was afraid that he would bring bad luck?

That day, after the high priest left, Feng Yi looked at himself in the mirror with a sullen expression. He was truly a complete loser!

Feng Yi knew that the high priest was dissatisfied with Huang Yi, and almost all the forces in the clan were dissatisfied with her. She was just a colourful phoenix, and didn’t have the ability to inherit the phoenix’s heritage. Why should she be their king?

Huang Yi occupied the phoenix inheritance left by their mother, but was unable to absorb it. She could only keep it in her dormitory, trying to absorb a bit of divine power to decorate her appearance. Her status had long been in jeopardy.

Not only Huang Yi, the second sister Huang Er, and the third sister Huang San, but also the two younger brothers Feng Er and Feng San, none of them were recognized by the Phoenix inheritance.

Feng Yi thought about what the high priest meant. She had told him all this—did she want him to try it? Did she think he was qualified to inherit the Phoenix heritage? That was right, Feng Yi had pure magic power and was the only pure-coloured bird cub born by the Phoenix King. Now he was most likely to be recognized by the inheritance.
