Chapter 686: This Is Your Party (1)

The underground city was dark, and the ceiling was similar to the sky outside, with a bright moon surrounded by shining stars. It looked like a beautiful starry night sky.

If Shen Yanxiao didn't know that they were in the underground and that it was daytime outside, she might have thought that she was truly standing under the vast night sky.

The twinkling stars hovered over the top of their heads as if she could reach the stars with her hand.

"Do you like it?" Qi Xia's voice had a trace of pampering as he smiled.

Shen Yanxiao opened her mouth. Since she came to the Barren Land, her head was full of dark clouds. She couldn't remember how long it had been since she last saw a sky full of stars.

"Little Xiao, happy birthday." Qi Xia softly looked at Shen Yanxiao.

Shen Yanxiao was dumbfounded for a moment.

"Happy birthday to the City Lord!"

Numerous figures emerged from the darkness, each of their hands was holding light-congealing crystals.

In the dark underground, the light-congealing crystals in their hands looked like a fallen star.

Tang Nazhi, Yan Yu, Yang Xi and Li Xiaowei were in front of the crowd. The light-congealing crystals that they were holding were dazzling. They moved towards Shen Yanxiao and swayed the light-congealing crystals in their hands.

The light-congealing crystals were spread around her. It was too beautiful, it looked like a galaxy.

"You guys..." Shen Yanxiao was shocked and delighted. She never expected that she would see such a scene.

"Oh, little idiot, you even forget your own birthday. If it wasn't because some of us remembered it, I'm afraid that you wouldn't even celebrate your fourteenth birthday." Tang Nazhi rubbed Shen Yanxiao's little head.

"How was this made?" Shen Yanxiao looked up to see the sky full of "stars" that made the underground city more beautiful.

"These are light-congealing crystals, but they were all created by Yang Xi personally. The light is dazzling, but the range of light is very small, so it looks like this." Yan Yu chuckled before he answered Shen Yanxiao's question.

The source of light-congealing crystals was difficult to control. Looking at the tens of thousands of light-congealing crystals on top of their heads, that should be the case. If these were normal light-congealing crystals, then the entire underground city would be lit up as if it was daytime. But with Yang Xi's hands, the light that was being emitted by the light-congealing crystals were twinkling and charming, and at the same time, it did not illuminate the entire surroundings.

Shen Yanxiao didn't know how much effort they spent to create such a sky full of stars for her. She finally understood why the people in the city had always been evasive these past few days. They were actually secretly preparing such a thing for her birthday!

Even though they were busy building the city in the daytime, and only had some spare time in the evening, they still managed to create tens of thousands of light-congealing crystals and fixed their position on top of the underground city. Shen Yanxiao could feel her heart warming up due to this.

Over these past few days, they certainly did not have much time to rest. Regardless of how tired they were, they still created this beautiful scenery before her.

"Thank you." Shen Yanxiao took a deep breath and felt like she couldn't breathe from happiness.

In her past life, she was an orphan. She didn't know when she was born, when her birthday was. She had never experienced this kind of thing before.

Hence, she became used to living without having a birthday. She had never thought that these people would care more about her than herself.

Whether it was the past or the present, this was the first birthday that Shen Yanxiao had ever experienced in her two lifetimes. For her, this was an unforgettable moment in her life.

"You should appreciate it, or else our effort of hiding it would go to waste." To prevent Shen Yanxiao from discovering the surprise in advance, they all did their best to avoid her.

TEASER

"I have heard that on the Moon God Continent, the elves will dance under the stars on their birthday. I wonder if I can have the honor to be our birthday star's partner for your first dance?" Qi Xia gracefully stepped two steps back, bent his waist, and offered his hand to Shen Yanxiao.

The melodious music started to play at this time; the wonderful sound echoed throughout everyone's ears.

"I can't dance. If you're not afraid of being stepped on by me, then you may."

*later*

My feet hurts. ( ͒˃̩̩⌂˂̩̩ ͒)

I did warn you that I don't dance. ╮(╯▽╰)╭

At least comfort me...

Hmmm? Like how?

Like hug me and say sweet nothings in my ear then kiss my lips to remove the pain. ★⌒(●ゝω・)

DAMN HOKA-

Shhh! They might not understand what you mean by that. XD
