When the Fire Qilin and the Green Dragon found Little Seven, he was helping Helian Wei Wei catch goldfish.
Upon seeing the Green Dragon, Little Seven immediately pa.s.sed the goldfish to the eunuch at the side, and looked at the Green Dragon with bright and piercing eyes, while his small face was solemn and stern.
Little Seven’s stare made the Green Dragon very uneasy, and its hair stood on its ends as it questioned, “What are you doing?”
“Catching you to feed my royal nephew,” the little one said seriously. Third Aunt said that after the baby was born, the baby would call him his royal uncle. He would be a real man in the future, so he had to seem more commanding.
The Green Dragon thought he heard wrongly, and asked, “Did you just say ‘feed’?”
The Fire Qilin was holding back its laughter as it muttered, “Dragons are indeed tremendously nouris.h.i.+ng for the Princess Consort. Eating you would be equivalent to eating countless dragon pills. It seems that Sky-swallowing Beast is still useful in certain aspects.”
“That’s because he doesn’t know eating you is equivalent to eating countless Lingzhi mushrooms.” The Green Dragon rolled its eyes.
After the Little Seven overheard their conversation, he produced a Beast Binding Rope and bundled the two of them up. While he was working on the knot, he said, “Since both of you are useful, I’ll catch all of you to feed my nephew.”
The Green Dragon and the Fire Qilin were stunned, speechless.
“Release me!”
“Who is the one who gave him the Beast Binding Rope? Don’t they know that he would use the rope to catch literally everything to eat!”
“It must be Master! Argh!”
Little Seven genuinely found the prey he caught this time too noisy. He furrowed his tiny brows and warned, “Be quiet, don’t disturb the others.”
Once again, the Green Dragon and the Fire Qilin were at a loss for words. They could not stay quiet. They were on the verge of being eaten, how could they stay quiet!
“Master said we have to practice good table etiquette. Do not force me to personally silence you.” Little Seven turned around and glared warningly at the two mythical beasts.
Fire Qilin was wailing at the back, “You’ve already done it!”
“Punching you doesn’t count.” Little Seven hastily replied as he continued dragging them forward.
The Green Dragon’s veins bulged from the pulsing rage. If punching does not count, then what does!
“It’s all your fault for insisting that we look for the Sky-swallowing Beast!” No matter how strong the Fire Qilin was, it could not free itself from Baili Jia Jue’s Beast Binding Rope. He could only struggle alongside the Green Dragon within the rope.
Da*n it! The Green Dragon also had an irresistible urge to beat up the little one who was dragging them forward. Can anyone stop this glutton! Can’t they see him dragging two ma.s.sive objects behind him!
The eunuchs and palace maids had indeed seen it, but they had evidently grown accustomed to Little Seven’s eating habits. Recently, the Seventh Prince had been talking about bringing back a dragon, and now he had finally caught one. Aside from admiration, they showed no signs of interrupting him.
Little Seven took big strides forward energetically until he reached Jiuchong Hall. He threw the two mythical beasts in front of Helian Wei Wei and said proudly, “I caught these!”
Helian Wei Wei was eating strawberries. However, when she saw the Green Dragon and the Fire Qilin, furiously clawing the ground within the Beast Binding Rope, she broke into a peal of laughter and asked, “What’s going on?”
The Fire Qilin could no longer stand it and spilled the entire story. However, the important point he wanted to get across was how unreasonable the Sky-swallowing Beast was.
Unexpectedly, Helian Wei Wei raised a brow and asked slowly, “Going to the netherworld? To catch dead souls?”
Fire Qilin realized it had said something he was not supposed to. Thus, he refrained himself from mentioning it further.
However, Helian Wei Wei would never let it go as it caught her interest. Furthermore, she was sharp-witted and had already caught on to their intentions.
