He awakened after sensing a scrutinizing gaze coming his way. As soon as he opened his eyes, he met her surprised eyes. Seeing her stare, he didn’t make any movement and kept looking at her.
While they were looking at each other, something stirred in Feng Jiu’s heart. There was a familiar feeling that then brought about an inconceivable idea in her mind. She was startled stiff. After staring at him for a long time, she finally moved her lips and called out, “Uncle?”
The little guy’s eyes jolted a bit but he didn’t respond to her. He was still looking at her with his ink-black eyes.
“Xuanyuan Mo Ze?” She called again, fixing her gaze at his eyes, not missing his expression.
The child’s lips moved as if about to say something. Then, he heard something like a soliloquy and forcibly swallowed the words on his lips.
“It shouldn’t be possible. It’s one thing to get old. How can you turn into a little child?” She murmured, suppressing the strange feeling in her heart. Putting away the strange idea, she sat up, went to wash in a part.i.tioned part of the room and quickly dressed.
Seeing her getting up, he propped his head with one hand while reclining in bed languidly. His body exuded an aura that didn’t belong to a child. A smile flitted across his ink-black eyes, but Feng Jiu did not see it.
About an hour later, they both finished was.h.i.+ng up. Feng Jiu first went to the main peak to say goodbye to the headmaster and others. Then, she returned to the cave-dwelling and told the two beasts, “Old White stays to guard the cave with Little Black. Little Cloud Devouring Beast will go with me.”
“Mistress, why does Cloud Devouring Beast go out with you? I want to go, too.” Old White kicked its hoof and snorted with a disapproving look.
“Are there any other reason? You can’t control your mouth, can I let you follow me?” Feng Jiu looked askance at the horse. “What’s more, I plan to have Cloud Devouring Beast to keep watch at Little h.e.l.l’s Lord. If I hand this matter over to you, I don’t feel at ease.”
“Mistress…” The horse still wanted to speak, but Feng Jiu interrupted it with a wave of her hand.
