Chapter 5583: Repaying the Favor (Part 1)
Venerable Mulberry thought to himself that children, after all, were soft-hearted. If he just played nice and said a few sweet words, they would surely let him go. But he hadn't expected Mo Baobao to be a child who didn't follow the script.
The two kids dragged them in front of Holy Domain First Tower, conjuring several earthen spikes to tie them up.
"Can they hold them?"
"If not, we'll reinforce it with a wooden cage."
The two children chatted as they worked. After tying up Ma Wei and the other three, they added several wooden cages and restraint talismans, thoroughly trapping them.
"They'll be held until tomorrow, no problem, right?"
"Definitely no problem!" Master Guangguang patted his chest and chuckled. "Little Dumpling, what should we do now?"
Mo Baobao blinked. "Call Mama over."
"Why call poker-face Mama?"
"You're silly," Mo Baobao said expressionlessly. "Call Mama over to rob them. Think about it, these people tried to kidnap us to threaten Mama. So we definitely need to repay them."
"Right, right, right! Poker-face Mama said this is called 'it's rude not to reciprocate a visit.'"
"Mm!" Mo Baobao grinned, holding Master Guangguang's hand, and swaggered off towards home.
Venerable Mulberry felt like crying. He kept shouting loudly from behind, "Children, children, come back, children! We can talk this over!"
"What's there to talk about?" Mo Baobao turned his small head and yelled back at them from a distance.
"Children, aren't you just after our stuff? I'll give it, I'll give it! I'll give you everything!" Venerable Mulberry, looking like someone who knew how to adapt to circumstances, quickly called out to stop them.
"You let me go first, and I can give you everything from my inner realm."
Mo Baobao pulled Master Guangguang back, and from behind several layers of restraint talismans, simply looked at him expressionlessly. Then he shook his head. "You're trying to trick me!"
Venerable Mulberry: ...
He really wanted to slap these two brats to death, especially the one talking. They were truly infuriating; soft words didn't work, harsh words weren't listened to. They were truly stubborn little brats who couldn't be swayed.
"I'm an old man, how could I lie to two little children like you?"
"Heh heh," Mo Baobao gave a cold chuckle.
Master Guangguang, accustomed to mimicking his young master's mannerisms, also let out a cold "heh heh" in response.
"Then take out the valuable things from your inner realm first," Mo Baobao said.
Venerable Mulberry: ...
"But if I take them out first, what if you two don't let me go?"
"Then you'll just have to deal with it," Mo Baobao said decisively.
Venerable Mulberry: ... That sounds a bit unreliable.
"You only have one chance here. Try it or not, it's up to you."
Venerable Mulberry painfully retrieved a large Eastern Pearl from his inner realm and waved it out. The moment the item passed through the barrier, Venerable Mulberry also tried to break out, but unfortunately, he crashed into the barrier, completely useless.
Mo Baobao, with his little poker face, held the Eastern Pearl and snorted, "You think this worthless thing can bribe me? What kind of ridiculous dream are you having?"
"Guangguang!"
"I know, I know, Little Dumpling, let's go. We're not bothering with this annoying old man anymore. A broken pearl isn't worth showing off. There's definitely nothing good in his inner realm. Never mind, let's tell poker-face Mama to come collect."
