âWhy donât you let my beast try?!â Leng Ruoxue suddenly said when she saw that it was about time.
âO-okay,â Huangfu Zhen said happily.
âDazzle, go and hook up with that âgolden pythonâ for Master,â Leng Ruoxue ordered indifferently.
âMaster!â Dazzleâs face was full of black lines, and his eyes were full of hidden bitterness as he looked at his future unscrupulous master.?Boohoo⦠Iâm interested in that fellow. I donât want to hook up with it.?But he had to listen to his masterâs orders.
Dazzle mustered up his courage in front of everyone, walked to the cage enclosing the one-horned golden flood dragon, and looked resentfully at the calm flood dragon. âHey, my future master asked me to hook up with you.â It was also similar to Charmâs opening statement earlier, and it was said in the beast language.
âIâm not interested in male foxes,â the flood dragon replied.
âIâm not interested in a male snake either,â Dazzle said angrily.?What an ungrateful stinky snake.
âYou are the snake. Your whole family are snakes.â The one-horned golden flood dragon hated being called a snake the most.?Hmph, how am I like a snake? Do snakes have scales as beautiful as mine? What a tasteless idiot.
âI am a fox, and I donât have a family!â Dazzle roared. He was really angry.
âCharm, what are they talking about?â Leng Ruoxue couldnât help asking when she saw the two little beasts seemingly arguing.
âTheyâre bickering!â Charmâs face was full of black lines.?These two fellows!?He would have beaten them up if not for the fact that he didnât want to expose his strength. They really made him worry.
âAlright! I accept hooking up with you,â the flood dragon suddenly said after he was done arguing with Dazzle.
âThen what are you waiting for? Come with me to see Master quickly,â Dazzle said in a commanding tone.
âWhat should I do with this woman?â the flood dragon asked disdainfully as he looked at the woman who had been blinded by her own cleverness.
âJust turn her into a fool. Donât kill her,â Yao said after some thought. He definitely couldnât let a woman who dared to plot against his master off easily.
âOkay.â The flood dragon increased the pressure on her mental strength until he was sure that Huangfu Yu was definitely a fool.
After losing the pressure, Huangfu Yuâs body collapsed to the ground. The flood dragon broke open his cage like Dazzle had done, and his cold golden eyes glanced indifferently at Master Wu. Then he transformed into a mini-snake as thick as a finger and crawled toward Leng Ruoxue behind Dazzle.
Nearby, Master Wu felt a chill run down his spine from just being glanced at by those cold golden eyes, butâ¦
Leng Ruoxue held the golden snake in her hand and fiddled with him. The snakeâs body was cold, his scales were very soft, and his entire body was golden.?He looks pretty good. Oh, I can use him as a bracelet.
âErm⦠Miss, these two spirit beasts belong to our Beast Trainer Association. I hope you can return them to their owners.â Master Wu summoned up his courage to say as he looked at the golden python hanging around Leng Ruoxueâs snow-white wrist as a bracelet and the black fox lying in her arms. He could see that Leng Ruoxue was definitely not easy to deal with, so he could choose not to take back that python, but he had to bring that fox back. That level nine holy beast was the treasure of their Beast Trainer Association!
âYouâre saying that theyâre yours? What evidence do you have?â Leng Ruoxue said indifferently. Whatever was in her hands was hers. There was no way they could go back!
âErmâ¦â Master Wu was speechless. How was he going to prove it? Even if he went back and asked the people of the Beast Trainer Association to be his witnesses, she probably wouldnât admit it.
âPrincess Huangfu Yu borrowed these two spirit beasts from our Beast Trainer Association,â Master Wu continued, unwilling to give up.
âOh, ask the princess to testify then. The princess said that whoever tamed these two spirit beasts would be their owner. She had the power to make the decision, and everyone here can testify to it,â Leng Ruoxue said indifferently with an expression that screamed âdonât try to lie to meâ.
ââ¦â
Is this stinky girl planning to keep these spirit beasts of our association? Ask the princess to testify? The princess has already fainted. Even if she wakes up now, sheâs probably a fool. Whatâs there to testify!?Master Wu was so angry!
âMiss, it wonât do you any good to offend our Beast Trainer Association,â Master Wu warned.
âMaster Wu, are you threatening me? This young lady only recognizes beasts and not humans. These two beasts are mine now, and no one can snatch them away!â Leng Ruoxue used the word âsnatchâ to imply that they shouldnât bully others with their power.
âThatâs right. The condition was agreed upon before the competition. But you want them back now that our young lady won the competition. What kind of person is this! How can people from the Beast Trainer Association bully others like this!â Feng Da echoed cleverly.
âYou⦠youâ¦â
âMaster Wu, right? Since the princess is the one who borrowed them from you, why donât you ask the princess for them? Why are you pestering my young lady? Youâre too old!â Lin Yuan also wanted to stir up trouble, and he even implied that Master Wu was up to no good.
âYour Majesty.â Master Wu was so angry that he couldnât speak, and he turned to look at Huangfu Zhen.
âErm⦠Master Wu! Yuâer is currently unconscious. Letâs talk about it when she wakes up!â Huangfu Zhen said perfunctorily. He couldnât clean up this mess.
Seeing the emperorâs attitude, Master Wu was very unwilling, but there was nothing he could do. He couldnât forcefully snatch them, and even if he tried, he wouldnât be able to snatch them!
âThis incident has dampened everyoneâs spirits, so letâs end the banquet here!â Huangfu Zhen said.
âXueâer, letâs go back!â Leng Qingtian said. Todayâs show was almost over.
âOkay.â Leng Ruoxue and the others stood up and walked out of the hall. But just as they reached the imperial garden, a maidservant stopped them.
âMiss Leng, Her Majesty the Empress invites you,â the maidservant said respectfully.
âIâm sorry. Iâm not familiar with your empress,â Leng Ruoxue declined lightly.
Just as Leng Ruoxue and the others were about to leave, a handsome youth appeared in front of them.
âMiss Leng, I am Huangfu Lian. Imperial Mother asked me to invite you over.â The empress had told the crown prince not to put on airs in front of Leng Ruoxue.
