Empty nodded with relief and said to Icy, âOkay, Icy. Itâs all thanks to Xueâer that you could wake up. You have to thank her properly!â
âXueâer?â Two big question marks appeared in Icyâs ice-blue eyes. After he woke up, his eyes were full of his master, and he didnât see anyone else at all.
âItâs this girl.â He pointed helplessly at Leng Ruoxue, who was sleeping in Freakâs arms.?Did this girl fall asleep again?
Icy jumped to Leng Ruoxueâs side and said very politely, âOh! Thank you for saving me.â
âYouâre welcome.â Leng Ruoxue slowly opened her eyes and looked at the transformed ice qilin.
Icy looked at Leng Ruoxue, then turned to look at Freak and said with slight surprise, âYou two look very unique.â
âUh! Yes!â Leng Ruoxueâs forehead was full of black lines. She absolutely didnât expect to be praised by a qilin who transformed into a puppy one day.?âLook very uniqueâ⦠Well, I guess this can be considered a compliment!
âHehe!â At this moment, the sneers of the beasts sounded in Leng Ruoxueâs sound. She found it even more unbearable!
âXueâer, letâs leave this place!â Empty said while suppressing his laughter.
âOkay,â Leng Ruoxue quickly replied and stood up.
âErm⦠Icy, right? Your master is there.â Leng Ruoxue couldnât help reminding the ice qilin, who had jumped onto her shoulder, and pointed at Empty.
âI know, but Master canât carry me now,â Icy said sadly.
âUh!â Leng Ruoxue was speechless.?What kind of logic does this ice qilin have?! Canât he walk by himself if his master canât carry him? Must he rely on others?
âDo you dislike me? Iâm a level nine transcendent divine beast. If you werenât my savior, I wouldnât be willing to stay on your shoulder!â Icy said very cockily.
ââ¦â Leng Ruoxue glanced at Empty powerlessly. She really didnât know if she had saved a beast or an ancestor! Moreover, from what this ice qilin implied, she had to thank him for being willing to stay on her shoulder!
âXueâer, thank you for your hard work.â The corners of Emptyâs mouth twitched slightly. Alas! Even after Icy had slept for so long, his preferences hadnât changed at all!
âI want compensation!â Leng Ruoxue said fiercely. She had already decided that she wanted to make a killing off of Empty.
âNo problem,â Empty said readily.
The three humans and one beast walked out of the cave. As they came out, they enveloped their mystic power around Leng Ruoxue and Freak and flew out of the mountain stream.
âEmpty, you liar. You said you would be our guide, but you wanted us to accompany you to see your beast,â Leng Ruoxue complained after exiting the mountain stream. Oh right, she had also saved his beast by the way.
âIt was too early just now. Thereâs nothing interesting in Carefree City. The time now is just right,â Empty said cunningly.
âThen bring us there quickly!â Leng Ruoxue urged.
âMaster, where are we going?â Icy, who was lying on Leng Ruoxueâs shoulder, asked in confusion. He had been sleeping for too long, and many things were different from what he remembered!
âTo explore Carefree City,â Empty said lightly.
âOh, okay.â Icy yawned.
âYou just woke up. Do you want to sleep again?â Leng Ruoxue looked at the sleepy blue puppy on her shoulder speechlessly.
âAlmost the entire life of qilins is spent in sleep,â Icy said matter-of-factly.
âOh, go to sleep then!â Leng Ruoxue stopped talking. It seemed that qilins were the beasts that loved to sleep the most. No wonder they were so fat!
While they walked, Empty suddenly pointed at a very imposing building. âXueâer, that Carefree Pavilion is the best restaurant in Carefree City. Letâs go in and eat something!â
âEat? Okay!â Icy hurriedly opened his tightly shut blue eyes when he heard that there was something to eat. His face was full of anticipation.
âGo in!â Leng Ruoxue shook her head. There was really nothing she could do about this master and beast!
âGuests, this must be your first time here! Please come in.â The waiter welcomed them warmly as soon as they entered the Carefree Pavilion. But he could only see Leng Ruoxue and Freak, and he automatically ignored the blue puppy.
âIs there a private room?â Leng Ruoxue asked when she saw the waiter leading them to the dining area. There was no way to eat in the dining area.
âIâm sorry, but itâs almost dinner time, so the private rooms are all full. Iâm afraid youâll have to make do with this,â the waiter said very respectfully while pointing at a table. Anyone who came to the Carefree Pavilion for a meal wouldnât be of low status, so the waiting absolutely didnât dare to slight them.
âAlright then! Serve us more of everything delicious,â Leng Ruoxue ordered and sat down directly on a chair. Freak and Empty sat on each side of her, and Icy jumped directly onto the table.
âOkay. Please wait for a moment.â Not long after the waiter left, plates of delicious dishes were served on the table one after another.
After the dishes were served, the three humans and one beast began to feast.
âThe dishes of the Carefree Pavilion are still very delicious, but they have deteriorated,â Empty said emotionally and put a piece of meat in his mouth.
âThen eat more!â Leng Ruoxue said. She wasnât very interested in the dishes of the Carefree Pavilion, but she also ate a few mouthfuls after seeing this person and his beast eating so happily.
âManager, how can such a high-class restaurant allow pet beasts to eat on the table!â A sharp voice entered Leng Ruoxueâs and Freakâs ears.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Icy, who was stuffing himself on the table, didnât even look up when he heard this voice. He continued to eat the food attentively.
As for Leng Ruoxue and Freak, they knew who the owner of the voice was without even looking, so they naturally couldnât be bothered.
âMiss Sun, the private room you booked is upstairs,â the manager said with a troubled expression. What he implied was that what somebody didnât see couldnât hurt them.
