Xu Xiaolan's expression finally eased slightly at the sight of the phoenix's show of intimacy toward An Lin.
She took the golden tree branch from the phoenix's beak before explaining to An Lin, "This is Phoenix Parasol Wood."
An Lin's eyes lit up. "Phoenix Parasol Wood? You mean like branches from the legendary Parasol Tree that phoenixes like to inhabit?"
Xu Xiaolan shook her head. "That's a common misnomer. The phoenixes do not inhabit the Parasol Trees because they're good trees. Instead, they become good trees because phoenixes frequent them."
Everyone became curious upon hearing this.
Xu Xiaolan explained, "Little Huang often likes to sleep on Parasol Trees. Its excrement then adheres to the branches of the Parasol Trees and would be absorbed over time. As such, the Parasol Tree branches would then become spirit medicine imbued with extremely pure fire-type and wood-type powers."
