Rebirth: Living in Wilderness with My Superpower
Chapter 419 Phoenix Nirvana

Chapter 419: Chapter 419 Phoenix Nirvana

Zhao Xiaomiao started off screaming loudly in hysteria but gradually became weak, slowly losing her strength.

When Shopkeeper Yan saw that it was enough stimulus, she slowly stood up and approached her, "I spoke so much mainly because I saw in you the shadow of my own past. If it were anyone else, I wouldn’t bother wasting my breath."

"Do you see how well I’m living now? I even own taverns spread all across the world. I don’t need to depend on anyone, I can command incredible wealth on my own. Even those in the royal palace need to buy information from our Dongsheng Tavern. Don’t you want a life like this?"

Zhao Xiaomiao looked up blankly at her.

"Suffering pain is not scary, the phoenix, too, needs to rise from its ashes to be reborn. As long as you can cast aside the fears in your heart and start over, it’s never too late.

If you don’t want to stay here, I can arrange a whole new life for you."

"..." A glimmer of clarity slowly returned to Zhao Xiaomiao’s eyes.

"Do you know what I admire the most about you?" Shopkeeper Yan stretched out her hand to hook her chin and slowly spoke, "It’s because you stayed hidden among the bandits for half a month. I really like this level of endurance and tenacity in you."

"You... are you serious?" Zhao Xiaomiao finally loosened up.

"Of course, believe it or not, that’s up to you. Whether it’s the Old Capital City, the Western Region, or the Northern Lands, I can make arrangements if you want, and you will become the next Shopkeeper Yan of the Dongsheng Tavern in the future."

Zhao Xiaomiao lowered her eyes and whispered softly, "The medicine, I’ll drink it."

...

The maid didn’t know how Shopkeeper Yan had persuaded Miss Zhao.

But the persuasive effect was indeed astounding,

At least at this time, Miss Zhao was willing to take her medicine and was very cooperative with the doctor’s treatments. Sometimes she even voluntarily asked to be helped outside to bask in the sun.

All things considered, this complete dedication to recovery compared to her previous state was nothing short of a transformation.

Seeing this, the maid was almost moved to tears, wondering what sort of miraculous negotiation this was.

Initially, she thought Miss Zhao was undoubtedly destined to die!

But now, it seemed she had been reborn from the ashes.

With Miss Zhao safe, she no longer needed to worry about being punished, and the young girl was incomparably happy.

The County Magistrate was just as pleased as the maid.

After all, he had been troubled by Zhao Xiaomiao’s obstinacy and desperation, having watched it all unfold,

Now that Shopkeeper Yan had effortlessly resolved it, the County Magistrate was profoundly impressed, "Thanks to Shopkeeper Yan, I am grateful for your righteous help; otherwise, if anything had happened to Zhao Xiaomiao, I would have been too ashamed to face old acquaintances."

Shopkeeper Yan smiled and waved her hand, "It’s also due to her own will to live. She is indeed a pitiful person. Loved dearly by her parents since childhood, she faced a sudden calamity one night, and it’s only because she lost all her attachments that she wanted to die. Now that she has new hopes, naturally she won’t seek death."

"Ah? What new hopes?" The County Magistrate looked confused.

Shopkeeper Yan smiled, "That’s a secret between her and me that I can’t share. But rest assured, I won’t harm her."

"..." The County Magistrate helplessly looked at her, "Then thank you, Shopkeeper Yan."

Just as the County Magistrate was about to invite Shopkeeper Yan for dinner, the butler rushed over in a panic.

"My lord, my lord, there are guests at the house."

"Who is it? Look at you, all flustered," the County Magistrate wondered.

"The Fox Hero has returned," the butler said, whispering a few words in the County Magistrate’s ear.

Shopkeeper Yan very aptly said, "Since that’s the case, you should get back to your duties, County Magistrate. We can meet another day."
