That little girl was pink-cheeked and delicate, clearly a beauty in the making.
Aside from her appearance, Uchiha Hikaru sensed the aura around her. That was right!
It was exactly the same as the aura of the Little Phoenix he had brought back.
He had long said that this Little Phoenix was on the verge of becoming a spirit. He had never expected her to turn into a human so soon.
Could it be that Phoenixes in this world transformed into human form once they reached a certain age?

Uchiha Hikaru dazedly Teleported over again and scooped the little girl into his arms, studying her closely.
His sudden appearance truly startled Taishang Laojun. She was just about to make a move when the little girl suddenly shouted, "Master!"
That shout made Taishang Laojun understand at once.
In this world, the only person that little one could call Master was probably Uchiha Hikaru.
"Uh..." Uchiha Hikaru looked utterly dumbfounded. Yes, it really was the little one.
He caught the little one as she rushed toward him. Her head was covered in messy long hair, making her look like a little lunatic. The moment she landed in Uchiha Hikaru's arms, she began squirming nonstop.
"Master, why didn't you come see me? Where have you been for so long? Where exactly did you go? Why do I feel like you've become stronger? What did you come here for today..."
That string of questions made her seem just like an endlessly curious child.
Uchiha Hikaru's head immediately began to ache. He said, "Be good, little one. Didn't Master go looking for your mistress? I just finished handling some business. Grow up properly, and later you can help Master beat up bad guys, okay?"
"Beat up bad guys?" The
