Xiao Rou and Big Dark Face’s jaws dropped. Ferocious? They were just stunned!
“Little Red?”
“Scared?”
Xiao Rou and Big Dark Face were both frozen to the spot as they looked at their young master with his fangs bared and claws out, instantly understanding the warning in his eyes.
‘You two idiots! If you dare expose my identity, I will make you both wish for death!’ That was what the arrogant young master meant—it was a most dangerous threat!
“Ahem, on behalf of the Lord Demon Emperor, we have come to visit and help you. If you don’t mind, please let us stay; we’re willing to wait on you hand and foot.” Xiao Rou was the first to regain his senses as he smiled flatteringly at Ling Chuxi.
“Yes, that’s it! Lord Demon Emperor asked us to come help you, and to train here too,” Big Dark Face quickly added. What a joke! Lord Young Master was currently beside Ling Chuxi, but they couldn’t reveal his identity, so they had to stay here to protect him.
“Oh, is that so?” Ling Chuxi tilted her head and looked at them strangely. Ling Chuxi didn’t fully believe the words of these two. Weren’t they supposed to be following that arrogant Zhen Ye? How come they were moving about on their own?
Ling Chuxi mulled it over and figured there was nothing wrong with it, so she decided to let them stay. First of all, these two weren’t hostile towards her and wouldn’t harm her. Secondly, their cultivation wasn’t that bad, so it would be good to let them stay in case their strength was needed in the future. The Golden Pill Sect really needed talented people right now!
“Of course, we monster beasts are straightforward and do not scheme. We never lie,” Big Dark Face said humbly.
Xiao Rou glanced at him in disdain. This honest-looking guy was famous for his bad ideas in Little Silver Ancient Mountain, and yet he was so thick-skinned to say they never schemed! However, in order to stay and protect the young master, Xiao Rou didn’t point that out, and nodded vigorously.
“Alright, you both can stay, but don’t cause any trouble or I’ll kick you both out.” With a wave of her hand, Ling Chuxi agreed and asked someone to make arrangements for them to stay.
“Ah, Miss Ling, do you know what kind of monster beast that is?” Xiao Rou asked carefully before he left.
“I don’t know.” Ling Chuxi shook her head, then glared at Xiao Rou. “Why? I told you—I picked it up. It’s my Little Red now, so don’t even think about snatching it away,” Ling Chuxi said huffily, picked up Little Red, and pinched its rump. She then held it in her arms and turned to walk away.
Suddenly, there was a loud crash behind her. Ling Chuxi turned back around quizzically and saw Xiao Rou unconscious and foaming at the mouth, sprawled on the ground.
“Is he ill?” Ling Chuxi frowned as she looked at Xiao Rou. This couldn’t be epilepsy, right?
“Ah, haha, no, no.” Big Dark Face laughed awkwardly. Of course he knew why Xiao Rou had suddenly fainted—he had just seen his young master get molested by Ling Chuxi, and couldn’t accept it! As for Big Dark Face, he had been psychologically prepared for a long time, so his capability to resist such a blow was much stronger.
