"Hehe!"
Sang Qingxiao asked, "After resolving the matter with Dune, are you still planning to visit New State?"
"Well, Qi Hao is celebrating his birthday. As his son, I have to go."
"He definitely doesn't want to see you."
"Once I kill the person who helped him steal his life, he will want to see me. In fact, he might wish I would appear right in front of him to accept his countless tortures."
"You really are your father's nemesis."
"I'm just acting on behalf of the heavenly way."
"Are you truly determined to commit patricide? No matter what he has done, even if he is an extremely wicked person, killing your father will ultimately tarnish your reputation."
"What does a little reputation matter?"
"Though you may not care about your reputation, it will provide an excuse for the opposing forces in Court to attack you. You are already surrounded by enemies in The Office of Censors; if your reputation worsens, things will become even more difficult."
"I have considered all of this, which is why I have prepared many escape routes for myself. I probably won't stay in Jingjing City for many years."
"Once I have established my escape routes, Miss Sang can come to my territory to play."
Sang Qingxiao immediately rejected the idea without a second thought. "I have no plans to leave Jingjing City for now. Even if I were to leave, do you think I have no escape routes? The world is vast; why should I go to your place? Hmph! The better you manage your territory, the more it becomes a thorn in others' eyes—a dangerous situation."
"I can still protect you all."
"Do I need your protection?"
Qi Xiaomian quickly softened his tone. "With Miss Sang's strength, that's naturally unnecessary. Perhaps it's more likely that I might need Miss Sang's help. Don't be too quick to refuse; resources can always be exchanged."
Sang Qingxiao surprisingly didn't say anything further in rejection.
Changing the subject, she asked, "Does this Silly Beast really know how to control sand? That quicksand pit that appeared under your feet earlier was quite dangerous."
The Silly Beast seemed to have heard their conversation. When Sang Qingxiao mentioned the quicksand pit, it instinctively moved aside. With such a reaction, who wouldn't know what the truth was?
Qi Xiaomian reached out and pulled it back, questioning, "Were you trying to kill me?"
The Silly Beast's gaze flickered. "Not kill. Stay. Want master."
So it wanted to keep me here.
"Mm!"
With a twist of its wrist, the Silly Beast tightly grasped Qi Xiaomian's hand. "No, leave it. I want my master."
"If I want to, can I take you with me?"
The Silly Beast did not answer immediately. After all, there were two beings with masters, Magic Breath and itself. It couldn't make a decision in that moment.
Qi Xiaomian did not dwell on the topic. "Can you control sand? Other Silly Beasts can't do what you can."
"My master taught me. I want my master."
"So, did you bring all this sand from the Northwest Desert?"
"Yeah, I'm amazing!"
The Silly Beast beamed with pride, its big blue eyes sparkling adorably, looking both silly and cute.
