âWhy did you capture them?â Leng Ruoxue asked with a cold expression. Hmph! Did they really think she was easy to mess with?
âWell⦠I donât know what exactly happened. I heard it from a customer, so I came to tell you,â the waiter explained.
âThank you, where are they currently locked up?â Leng Ruoxue took out a few purple coins and gave them to the waiter as thanks before asking.
âHeâs in Shadow Cityâs dungeon!â The server replied.
âFreak, letâs go to the prison to take a look!â Leng Ruoxue turned around and said to the freak.
âOkay.â The freak knew that Xueâer was very anxious, so he didnât waste time and pulled Xueâer out of the restaurant.
In the Shadow City dungeon.
Feng Miao, Feng Zhan, and Little Flame were currently locked in the same cell.
âIâm sorry for implicating you.â Feng Miao said somewhat guiltily. Sigh! What bad luck! She thought she could avoid it, but who knew that she still met it.
âLittle Miaomiao, you are my subordinate. I donât want to hear such words!â Feng Zhanâs face was stiff as he said with slight displeasure. At this moment, he had already transformed into his human form.
âUh! This is the prison?â Little Flame wasnât as depressed as Feng Miao. Instead, it looked around curiously at the environment in front of it.
âYeah! Youâve broadened your horizons today!â Feng Zhan chuckled and teased. Actually, it was also the first time he was captured into a prison!
âEn, en, a woman will come and save us. Donât worry.â Little Flame nodded its little head and said in a very open-minded manner. Hehe, itâll just take it as coming here to travel!
âOh, Little Flame? Will you bite that woman to death with that strike just now?â Feng Zhan asked with a mischievous smile. According to his knowledge, Fiery had at least ten thousand types of poison in its body. Moreover, it didnât even bite people in the same manner!
âI wonât. The woman said before that living a life worse than death is a hundred times more painful than directly cracking it apart. Thatâs why I wonât let her die so easily!â Little Flame said with slight complacency, and its little tail curled up proudly.
âUh! The truth!â Feng Zhan spoke with a fawning expression, and he couldnât help but feel uneasy in his heart. Oh, Master is suspected of teaching children bad things! Thinking back, this little red snake was such a pure and kind child!
âHehe! Thatâs for sure!â Fiery became increasingly cocky.
âLooks like you guys have adapted quite well.â Suddenly, a cold voice sounded in their ears. The two humans and one beast raised their heads at the same time and looked at Leng Ruoxue who was right in front of them. They shouted enthusiastically in unisonâ¦
âMaster!â
âWoman!â
âMiss!â
Feng Miaoâs voice was the smallest. After calling out once, she lowered her head in embarrassment.
âWhoâs going to tell me whatâs going on?â Leng Ruoxue glared at Feng Zhan and asked.
âWoman, there was a very coquettish woman who wanted to snatch your family heirloom, me, so I bit her. After that, the man beside her wanted to teach us a lesson. After that, we started fighting. After that, we were caught here,â Little Flame said.
However, because Little Flame spoke too quickly, it didnât say it very clearly, but Leng Ruoxue finally understood a little. That was, there was someone who was so blind as to want to snatch Little Flame away. Ay! Looking at the sparkling, translucent, and incomparably beautiful little fellow, she couldnât help but feel uneasy in her heart. Little Flame actually became a disaster too!
âMiss, itâs all my fault.â Feng Miao lowered her head and said softly.
âMaster, theyâre from the Phoenix Clan,â Feng Zhan explained.
âPhoenix Clan, isnât that Feng Miaoâs clansman?â Leng Ruoxue said softly, then looked at Feng Miao with a face full of question marks.
âMiss, that womanâs name is Fengxian. Sheâs my cousin, but we donât have a good relationship. She likes to snatch my things, including men. If it werenât for me, she wouldnât have wanted to snatch Little Flame. So, Iâm sorry, itâs all my fault,â Feng Miao said guiltily. She kept her head lowered, not daring to look at Leng Ruoxue.
âDoes she want to snatch or buy?â Leng Ruoxue was a little speechless. Uh! What was this? Initially, she thought all beastmen were innocent, cute and kind-hearted! But who knew that even among beastmen, there would be something like snatching things or even men. This was too unbelievable!
âWoman, she didnât even say she was going to buy it and directly snatched it. Hmph! How could I do as she wished!? Iâm your family heirloom, woman! Those Tom, Dick, and Harry donât have the qualifications to have me!â Fiery said with a fawning expression, then shook its head very cockily as if it had done something amazing!
âWell done!â Leng Ruoxue patted Little Flameâs head and praised it. Hmph! Her familyâs beasts didnât allow others to bully it!
âHehe!â Xiaohuo climbed onto Leng Ruoxueâs palm and licked her palm gently. Then, it coiled into a ring and lay down.
âYoung Miss, that damn woman is really too annoying. Iâve never hated a phoenix so much in my entire life!â Feng Zhan continued to complain. Hehe, he knew that his master wouldnât be angry with them. His master was a human who loved beast the most.
âFeng Zhan, tell me what exactly happened?â Leng Ruoxue asked. Uh, Fiery said it too simply. It only
