2406 Succumb
Yu Qian was nonchalant. After all, he actually disregarded the human and the fiend.
I can’t do anything to the First Deity, but how can I not punish a Hua Shuangshuang?
And this beast. Yu Qian touched his purlicue. If there is somebody to blame for this, it should be blamed for reincarnating into the wrong family. I’ve already killed the Wind-Stepping Tiger that bit me. This small one definitely hates me and can’t be raised properly. Since this is so, I should completely destroy it!
Yu Qian’s attitude was very adamant. He glanced at Hua Shuangshuang and chuckled, “That’s strange. Speaking of which, that’s not your legendary fiend. Why must you do this for it?”
Previously, he still thought that Hua Shuangshuang did this because he had an agreement with this Wind-Stepping Tiger. But after a closer look, he realized that it was not the case.
Hua Shuangshuang’s actions looked even more ridiculous to Yu Qian.
“Ow!” The little Wind-Stepping Tiger roared at Yu Qian again.
Hua Shuangshuang ruffled its head and said, “Even though we don’t have an agreement, a fiend’s life is still a life.”
These fiends treated him intimately, so he naturally saw them as friends.
“Ridiculous!”
A terrifyingly strong aura gathered in Yu Qian’s palm.
However, just as he was about to take action, a loud shriek came from the depths of the forest.
Screech!
Yu Qian knitted his brows and looked over. It was a Black Bone Golden-Winged Beast that flew over and blocked Hua Shuangshuang without hesitation.
Its feathers were upright as it stared at Yu Qian. Its gaze was as if it was looking like an enemy.
Yu Qian took a few looks at it and realized it was the one he had given to Jun Jiuqing.
He knew that the Black Bone Golden-Winged Beast was saved by Hua Shuangshuang, but he never expected this fellow to go against him for Hua Shuangshuang. It had been raised by him at this legendary fiend mountain for the past few years!
“You…” Just as Yu Qian spoke, he suddenly paused, and his expression turned sharp as he looked behind Hua Shuangshuang.
In the deep forest, a pair of eyes filled with enmity suddenly appeared. Following that, it was the second and the third!
Rustling noises were heard.
The legendary fiends that previously escaped had all returned, and they came to Hua Shuangshuang’s side in unison to go against Yu Qian.
The harsh murderous aura came over, which caused Yu Qian to be overwhelmed with shock and anger. “You! Are you turning against me?!”
…
Medicinal mountain.
After picking the remaining herbs, Xiao Ba pulled Yan Qing back.
Now that they were done with their mission to show their fake affection and even managed to embarrass Shu Jing, Xiao Ba was elated.
She talked quite a bit to Yan Qing.
Yan Qing was as quiet as usual. Other than acknowledging and agreeing from time to time, or replying to her questions, he spent most of the remaining time listening to her quietly.
After talking the entire way, Xiao Ba’s mouth was dry. She finally thought of something, looked at Yan Qing, blinked, and asked, “Brother Yan Qing, do you find that I’m very talkative?”
Yan Qing did not have much of an expression. “No.”
Her voice was very soft and charming. It was… different from others.
Hearing this reply, Xiao Ba patted his shoulders in satisfaction.
It was the man’s muscular and long arm underneath the thin clothing.
She smiled brightly and said, “Brother Yan Qing, you’re so teachable.”
As she spoke, she held Yan Qing and planned to walk in.
But the moment they reached the door, it opened, and a familiar face appeared before their eyes.
The two parties exchanged glances.
Yu Mo looked at the two people before the door in complete shock.
As they just came back, Xiao Ba’s thin and white arm was still holding Yan Qing. The two of them were even holding hands.
Yu Mo’s eyes were open and mouth agape as he yelled internally, What’s going on?! Who can tell me what happened in such a short period of time? Yan Qing, this kid, is actually holding a girl’s hand?!
Seeing Yu Mo, Xiao Ba greeted him happily. “Hm? Lord Yu Mo, long time no see.”
Yu Mo swallowed a mouthful of saliva with much difficulty. “Y-you—”
Xiao Ba pulled Yan Qing in before she turned around to close the door. Then, she let go of Yan Qing, raised her two hands, and innocently said, “Don’t worry, don’t worry. I was just borrowing Lord Yan Qing to use. I don’t have any other intentions.”
Use? How did you use him? Yu Mo’s eyelids twitched harshly. “Other than killing people, he doesn’t know anything else. H-how did you use him—”
Yan Qing quickly shot him a sharp gaze. It was a pity that the current Yu Mo was too stunned and did not notice the death threat.
Xiao Ba’s lips curled up as she blinked at Yu Mo. “Of course, I know that Lord Yan Qing is very capable, but… he’s also a man!”
He’s the type that is very easy to use as a shield!
Yu Mo’s entire person was stunned. What does that mean?!
He suddenly thought of something and glanced at Yan Qing. His gaze scanned Yan Qing in doubt and shock. NO WAY?!
Yan Qing knitted his brows, and murderous intent quickly flashed across his eyes.
The strong urge to survive finally made Yu Mo recover his senses. He immediately retracted his gaze.
However, Xiao Ba had already walked toward the yard. “Hm? Master and His Highness haven’t come out?”
Yu Mo hurriedly explained, “The two of them are playing chess. I don’t think they’ll come out in a short amount of time.”
He also detected his master’s movements, so he specifically came over to guard them.
“Miss Xiao Ba, do you have anything urgent?”
“No.”
Since she is busy, I can just wait.
Then, Xiao Ba bade them farewell and returned to the house.
When her figure completely disappeared behind the door, Yu Mo then suddenly leaned toward Yan Qing. He tried his best to control his own excitement and agitation. “Brother! You finally succumbed?!”
