Chapter 14 Ice Emperor: You little brat, how dare
you!
The Ice Emperor was furious!
She was a 390,000-year-old ferocious beast, the patriarch of the Ice Jade Scorpion clan, one of the strongest races in the far north. When had she ever been provoked like this?
Moreover, this brat Yunze even had a smug look on his face!
Wasn't Sister Bing'er being nice to you? You've only known this auspicious beast for a day, and you're already clinging to her and won't leave!
Isn't my appearance appealing enough?
Well... how about trying a different look later, like Xue'er?
Under the Ice Emperor's glare, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion merely glanced at her indifferently before lowering its head and affectionately rubbing against Yunze's little face.
At this moment, the Ice Emperor was about to explode with rage.
How dare he ignore me!
Ice Empress turned her gaze and coldly looked at Di Tian. "Is everything alright in your Star Dou Great Forest? Aren't you taking it back?"
Di Tian glanced at Ice Empress and said indifferently, "The little guy finally found another of his kind, and they get along so well. Playing for a couple more days won't hurt."
Upon hearing this, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion nodded repeatedly in agreement, and then gently licked Yun Ze's little face again.
Hmm, this little guy smells so sweet and milky!
Ice Empress clenched her teeth tightly. If Di Tian weren't here, she might have forcefully snatched Yun Ze from the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's arms. But now Di Tian was right there watching, and he was completely on the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's side.
Ah! I'm so wronged!
Glaring angrily at the three-eyed golden lion, Bingdi muttered indistinctly, "What a little brat!"
She didn't dare say it directly, fearing a beating from Di Tian.
Staying here would only bring her anger, so Bingdi turned and left, kicking her little legs as if venting her frustration on the snow.
Yunze blinked. Chasing after her now wasn't realistic; he could only find a chance later to make it up to Bing'er.
Hmm, he'd just snuggle in her arms a little longer then.
In the end, he'd be the only one benefiting.
After Ice Emperor left, a smug look appeared in the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's eyes, then it looked at Di Tian.
It didn't speak, just stared straight at him.
Di Tian was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly to himself.
Well, it uses him and then lets him go, this little devil!
"Playing is fine, but don't cause anything like today's incident again." Walking up to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, Di Tian gently rubbed its head and spoke softly, then looked at Yun Ze, "I can sense that your mind is far more mature than your age, but you are truly sincere towards the little guy, so I won't say much."
"It truly treats you as its best friend, and I hope you won't let it down."
With that, a gust of wind and snow swept up, and Di Tian's figure instantly disappeared from the spot.
"They're all gone, let's continue playing." The Three-Eyed Golden Lion said excitedly to Yun Ze in its arms.
"How about I take you somewhere?" Tilting its head and thinking for a moment, Yun Ze said to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
"Alright!"
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion completely obeyed Yunze's wishes. It stretched its head out, gently tossing Yunze onto its back, and with a burst of speed, it transformed into a golden shooting star across the snowfield, speeding away.
They ran like this for a full half hour, until the two arrived at a snow valley.
"Let's go in. This is a secret base I discovered." Yunze reached out and gently patted the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's head. The latter responded and carried Yunze into the snow valley.
It was a circular snow valley, surrounded by snow-capped mountains two to three hundred meters high.
"Such dense ice-attribute energy." Upon entering the snow valley, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion quickly sensed the energy of heaven and earth that was completely opposite to its own fire attribute. "Yes, we found this place by chance when Sister Ice Wolf took me and the little guy for a stroll outside. This area belongs to Sister Xue'er's territory, and no soul beasts dare to come here normally. Sister Xue'er and Sister Ice Wolf aren't very interested in this place either, so we can pick whatever we want here!"
Yunze said with a smile.
When they first discovered this place, Yunze was only six months old. However, due to his constitution, the abundant ice-attribute energy here posed no threat to him. Moreover, the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox was secretly following them at the time; otherwise, given the Snow Empress's personality, she would never have allowed Yunze to be in danger.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion's gaze swept across the snow valley. After walking a little further in, it soon saw many peculiar plants growing around it.
"These should all be ice-attribute natural treasures. I ate the fruit from that tree over there last time; it was icy cold and crunchy."
"That patch of icy blue grass is also quite good. You can pick it and eat it raw; it tastes like an ice pop. Add a little beast milk on top, and it tastes amazing."
"Oh, and over there too."
Yunze stretched out his little hand, pointing to the plants.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion's mouth was practically watering.
As a mythical beast, it had eaten its share of natural treasures in the Star Dou Great Forest; in fact, it could be said that it practically grew up eating natural treasures and powerful soul beasts.
But eating alone was one thing, eating with Yunze was another.
Most importantly, in the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's view, what it ate didn't matter; the main thing was being able to stay with the little guy.
"Let's go pick some fruit to eat," Yunze said, not doing anything himself, but telling the Three-Eyed Golden Lion some things to be careful about, and then letting it do it on its own.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was in high spirits. It gently placed Yunze on the ground and trotted to the tree. With a swift movement of its golden dragon claw, a golden flame appeared, cleanly severing the fruit from the branch.
"As expected of a mythical beast possessing both spiritual attributes and ultimate fire, such skillful control over flames!"
Yunze pulled a blanket made of ice bear fur from the pendant around his neck and laid it on the ground, lounging comfortably. He also pulled out several bottles of beast milk and began to drink it with relish.
Of course, this beast milk wasn't from the Nine-Tailed Ice Fox, but rather a collection of miscellaneous items that the Ice Emperor had gathered from the outside. While it wasn't Yunze's daily meal, it was quite good as a beverage.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was very efficient, and soon its hands were full of fruit.
It blinked, then ran back and forth several times, carrying the glistening fruits to Yunze's side. It then nestled against him, gently nudging him with one paw.
Yunze picked up a fruit and took a bite.
The cool juice flowed down his throat, filling him with a wonderfully refreshing sensation.
He picked up another fruit and held it to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's mouth.
The lion opened its mouth and swallowed the fruit in one gulp, its eyes lighting up.
Crisp and icy cool!
"Do you like it?" Seeing the undisguised comfort on the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's face, Yunze chuckled, patting it a couple of times. The lion nodded gently, "I love it, I want more."
"Sure, there's no shortage of fruit here. Eat as much as you want. If you feel it's not enough this time, I'll bring you back anytime you want to come," Yunze said with a smile.
"Okay!" The three-eyed golden lion's eyes lit up, but its tone became somewhat wistful. "If only I could stay with you every day~"
"Alright, with your Uncle Di Tian's strength, it shouldn't take long for him to come to our far north from your place. Just come find me whenever you miss me."
Yun Ze naturally knew that the three-eyed golden lion was reluctant to part with him, and gently stroked its body with his small hand, his voice soft and gentle.
