Chapter 260 - Give Me A Reason To Take You In (2)
This was too terrifying. Ma Zhongxian really didn’t know what kind of family would have even a Spiritual Sovereign as a maidservant!
“Hmph! How dare she ask me to serve her? Is she worthy?” Lü Tao snorted coldly.
“Tao’er, why lower yourself to the level of a small family who has never seen the world. Let’s not be angry!” Feng Da walked over, gently hugged Lü Tao, and coaxed her.
“Okay, look after that self-righteous niece of yours. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee that she will still be alive next time,” Lü Tao said domineeringly, already possessing the aura of a powerhouse.
“Young Master, should we go and persuade them?” Xiang Dong, who was watching the commotion not far away, asked softly.
“No need. Ruoxue won’t go too far,” Ju Ri said nonchalantly as his eyes drifted toward Leng Ruoxue.
“Senior, don’t worry. I will take care of her.” Ma Zhongxian rolled his eyes at his niece and hurriedly promised. But his heart was full of suspicion. Who are these three people?!
“Hurry up and take her out of my sight,” Lü Tao said irritably.
“Yes, we won’t disturb you any further.” Ma Zhongxian pulled his niece up from the ground and quickly disappeared from Lü Tao’s sight. Although he didn’t like this niece of his, he wouldn’t be able to explain it to his brother if anything happened to her.
“Miss.” Lü Tao looked at Leng Ruoxue aggrievedly and pouted.
“Hehe, our Lü Tao is so imposing! Even I, your Miss, am scared of you,” Leng Ruoxue teased happily.
“Miss, Lü Tao is going to ignore you.” Lü Tao turned her head angrily and concentrated on starting the fire.
“Alas! I’m so sad! The cute Lü Tao is actually ignoring me,” Leng Ruoxue said with a face full of self-blaming.
“Xue’er, you still have me. I won’t ignore you.” The little silver mink didn’t let go of any opportunity to make his intentions clear.
“My little mink is still the best!” Leng Ruoxue exclaimed happily.
“Ruoxue, your life is really enviable!” Ju Ri walked over.
“Big Brother Ju, you can do the same if you want,” Leng Ruoxue said lightly.
“I hope so!” Ju Ri said. He knew his responsibilities and knew that he would never be able to live as he pleased like Ruoxue.
“Miss, food is ready.” Lü Tao walked over.
“Big Brother Ju, let’s eat together!” Leng Ruoxue invited.
“Then I won’t hold back.” Ju Ri couldn’t ask for more.
“Ruoxue, what you’re eating is too much.” Ju Ri came to the table and was a little dumbfounded. Isn’t the food a little too extravagant? Comparisons are odious!
“Really? This is already considered simple,” Leng Ruoxue said honestly. She had always had high requirements for food. And as time passed, her subordinates’ appetites had also become picky.
“But look at what our mercenary group and the Ma family are eating. And look at you guys… The difference is too big,” Ju Ri said helplessly. He felt inferior compared to Ruoxue.
“Uh, Big Brother Ju, ask your subordinates to come and eat together!” Leng Ruoxue was a little embarrassed to eat alone after hearing what he said.
“Ruoxue, then we won’t stand on ceremony. Xiang Dong, come eat with us!” Ju Ri quickly beckoned to his subordinates, as if he was afraid that Leng Ruoxue would regret it.
“Coming.” Xiang Dong and the others ran over excitedly. Everyone gathered and had a lively dinner. After the meal, Xiang Dong and the others took the initiative to wash the dishes.
“Second Uncle, they are too much.” Ma Yurou sat in the distance, her face full of injustice. Why did they have fish, meat, and soup, eating an incomparably sumptuous dinner, while they could only gnaw on hard, dry food?
“Shut up and don’t cause any more trouble. Otherwise, you will have to bear the consequences yourself,” Ma Zhongxian threatened. This spoiled eldest young lady was the most troublesome among the younger generation of the Ma family.
After eating, Leng Ruoxue and the others went to rest.
The next morning, Leng Ruoxue found Ju Ri, greeted him, and left the team temporarily.
After they walked out of the sight of Ju Ri and the others, Leng Ruoxue summoned Quill. “Quill, take us there!”
“Master, come sit on me!” Quill enlarged.
After Leng Ruoxue and the others sat on Quill’s back, he led them directly to the eagle tribe’s territory.
“Master, I asked them yesterday, and they should give me an answer today,” Quill said. After arriving at the forest yesterday, he had specially gone to the eagle tribe to convey his master’s intentions to his tribe. But the eagles were hesitant at the time, so he gave them a day to consider.
“Well done,” Leng Ruoxue praised as she caressed Quill’s soft feathers.
After flying for about fifteen minutes, Quill pointed at a place in the forest and said, “Master, that’s it.”
Quill found a place to land and was instantly surrounded by a group of eagles.
“Quill, we’ve thought about it,” one of the snow-white eagles said first.
Quill nodded and motioned the snow eagle to continue.
“We are willing to acknowledge humans as our masters,” the snow eagle said directly. It was a level eight holy beast. In the past, its strength was on par with Quill’s. But Quill was now a divine beast, while it had yet to advance. Therefore, it decided to be like Quill and acknowledge a human as its master.
“However, I have a condition,” the snow eagle continued.
“What condition?” Quill asked in puzzlement.
The snow eagle hesitated but still said, “I want to acknowledge you as my master.”
“What?” Quill was so angry! Boohoo… It’s indeed here to snatch my job!
While Quill was communicating with the snow eagle, Leng Ruoxue glanced at the eagles surrounding them. Most of them were level five holy beasts, and a few were level four. This snow eagle had the highest level apart from Quill.
“Give me a reason to take you in.” Leng Ruoxue raised her eyebrows as she stared at the snow eagle.
“I want to become strong. I want to become a divine beast. I am already a level eight holy beast. If I want to advance, I need a powerful master. Moreover, I fly fast, and I can provide warmth in the winter and am cool in the summer. Using me as a mount is absolutely comfortable and safe. In addition, I’m good at making my master happy, and I can sing…” After hearing what Leng Ruoxue said, the snow eagle began to tell her everything it could do, talking non-stop. Uh, this human woman should be Quill’s master, so I have to perform well, lest she looks down on me.
