Chapter 2014 (2/2)

“We won’t be able to leave if they see us. I’ve already checked the area. The Night Amethyst isn’t here,” Apas said.

“Are you sure?”

“Yes!”

“What about this little thing?” Mo Fan asked.

“Of course we are bringing her with us. The male eagles will tear her into pieces if they see her… oh, I just realized why that Skyridge White Tiger was provoking the Frosty Ancient Eagles!” Apas blurted out.

“Why?” Mo Fan was puzzled.

“It’s because of the cub. The Skyridge White Tiger knows its cub entered the nest by accident. It was trying to distract the eagles so the cub would have a chance to escape… which is our chance to escape too! The Skyridge White Tiger will be back!” Apas said.

Mo Fan finally understood the situation.

“Little thing, you must have worried the hell out of your parents!”

Apas kept holding the little cub after they returned to the cave. The other Mages thought it was her pet cat, so they did not treat it seriously. However, the observant Night Rakshasa immediately noticed its unusualness. She stared at the cub vigilantly.

The cub had an innocent and harmless expression. She tilted her head and looked back at the Night Rakshasa curiously.

The Night Rakshasa lowered her guard when she realized the creature was just a child. To her surprise, the cub jumped down and started playing with her tail as soon as she turned around.

The Night Rakshasa was most likely an unapproachable empress in the world of cats. She immediately lost her temper when the cub grabbed her tail.

The cub was overjoyed after provoking the Night Rakshasa. She quickly ran over to Mu Ningxue.

The cub jumped into Mu Ningxue’s arms as if she had sensed the pleasing icy Aura coming from her. Mu Ningxue was suddenly at a complete loss.

“Xuexue, it seems like she is fond of you more, unlike some demon snake that keeps enchanting her,” Mo Fan smiled.

Mu Ningxue was not fond of little creatures. She tried to put the cub down, but the cub was already asleep in her arms. She was already snoring, speaking of falling asleep within a second!

Mo Fan admired the little cub’s boldness when he saw how attached she had become to Mu Ningxue. The little tigress had no clue how evil the world was.

“Xuexue, you should just keep her. Fate has brought her to you,” Mo Fan smiled.

The little cub was currently at the age that was the easiest to trick since she was curious about everything around her and had no suspicion of the world. A Summoner had a high chance of establishing a Contract with it successfully. It was also the reason why younglings of demon creatures were sold at a high price on the market.

Unfortunately, Mo Fan had run out of Contract slots. In terms of usefulness, Apas was a far better option than the little cub, except for her lack of obedience.

“I…” Mu Ningxue was baffled too. Why was the creature so attached to her? “I…I don’t think I can take good care of her,” Mu Ningxue quickly gave the cub back to Apas.

The cub obviously liked Mu Ningxue’s presence more. She twisted around in Apas’ arms a bit before going back to sleep.

Mo Fan looked at Mu Ningxue. He noticed she was behaving strangely.
