Chapter 722: Chapter 726: Nitpicking
Bai Ling couldn’t wait any longer, picking up a piece directly, "What’s there to test? They don’t have the guts to poison it, it’s the last day, if they wanted to poison, they would’ve done it by now."
The Emperor gave Bai Ling a cold look, saying nothing.
Even though he too thought it wasn’t likely, he firmly believed it was always better to be safe than sorry.
Liao Li kept quiet, waiting till the Emperor had tested all the meat. He then casually selected a piece to eat.
Only five pieces of meat were delivered today.
Bai Ling and Liao Li had two pieces each.
When they finished eating, they licked their lips, still unsatisfied.
Bai Ling looked disdainfully at the Emperor’s method of eating slowly and deliberately, "He’s nothing but a slave, yet he gets to eat the same things as us."
The Emperor cast a cold glance at Bai Ling.
Bai Ling was immediately angered, "What are you looking at? Did I say something wrong? You’re nothing but a useless thing without the ability to transform and no superpowers. What right do you have to glare at me?"
The Emperor’s tone was calm, but his words were laced with sarcasm, "I dare not. I’m just a waste who doesn’t even have superpowers. If Young Master bullies me like this, aren’t you afraid of being ridiculed by others?"
Bai Ling’s face fell immediately, "Who dares to laugh at me? Even if I bully you, what can you do? Do you think you’re so great because you’ve suggested a couple of ideas to father? In the end, you still depend on us to find medicine for you, don’t you? With your attitude, believe it or not, I’ll throw the medicine away and not give it to you!"
The Emperor clenched his fists involuntarily.
Bai Ling was right, the medicine, that was the most important thing to him, he would remember this humiliation!
Liao Li was greatly troubled as he pinched his forehead. On one side, he had his beloved Cub, and on the other side, his key advisor.
He was really in a dilemma.
"Enough, Lingling, since you’ve finished eating, go back and rest."
Bai Ling glared at the Emperor discontentedly, grunted heavily and left.
The Emperor lowered his eyes, his fingers trembling slightly, his mind enveloped in frustration.
He wasn’t from here.
He didn’t possess a beast form.
He couldn’t awaken superpowers.
So, he deserved to be ridiculed by these beasts in human form?
Beasts are beasts, even if they take human form, they can’t speak human language.
If so, he wouldn’t mind teaching them how to be proper beasts.
The corners of the Emperor’s mouth twitched upwards ever so slightly.
Liao Li seemed to guess what was going through the Emperor’s mind and issued a gentle warning, "Lingling is my cub, raised by me sometimes recklessly. Don’t take offense, Emperor."
The Emperor’s eyes, hidden behind low lids, filled with a dark glint, he clenched his teeth in rage, but then suddenly smiled.
Your Majesty is overthinking, naturally, I won’t bear a grudge against a cub."
I will spare her life!
The Emperor quietly added in his heart.
Liao Li was satisfied with Emperor’s reaction, he nodded, got up, and walked towards the tent that the Beast Soldiers had built for him.
This tent was something that Liao Li saw Gaiyin effortlessly create out of thin air with his abilities.
So, he also asked the Beast Soldiers to build a similar one for him.
And surprisingly, it was indeed more cozy than staying under the open sky.
His initial thought was for Gaiyin to make him a tent as well but before he could voice out his request, that cunning cub declined, saying it was his limit to create just one.
Having already said so, it was hard for him to insist further. Hence, the matter was left there.
Nevermind, why should he be upset with them?
Eventually, once they enter the Wood Immortal Mansion, they will perish there.
