Chapter 1719: Suzaku (2)

Chapter 1719 "Suzaku (2)"

For the divine beasts gathered here on this mountain, their only reactionary reflex would be to shudder from the chill running down their backs.

As expected of Bai Xiachen, he's truly the Mistress's son. Even when talking about kidnapping someone, they're of the same opinion.

Little Rice was the most effected and nearly cried in his voice: "Mistress, can you stay away from that Huang Xiao Ying from now on?"

Bai Yan casts a confused glance at the little feline boy: "Why?"

"I'm afraid you're on too good of a term with her, what if she suddenly gets the idea of kidnapping me? So, you need to keep your distance from her. I don't want to marry such a crazy woman!"

Marrying that sort of crazy one is the same as taking my life!

"That's not right on your part Little Rice. Huang Xiao Ying can be a little crazy at times, but she's got a lot of good points too. Why do you dislike her so much?" In the steambun's mind, that tigress does act a bit crazy at times, but that shouldn't warrant such strong dislikes from his friend.

"You're making it out too lightly Little Master. Imagine you meeting such a crazy woman like that, would you be able to stay calm?" The tiger boy explains with an aggrieved voice

Bai Xaichen merely blinked like he didn't get it: "I already have Ling Yan and Dragony as my sisters, why do I need another girl from the outside? You on the other hand don't have a single one aside from Huang Xiao Ying."

"......"

Girl?

Little Rice paused for a short moment before exploding with a jump: "Can you even call that a girl? Huang Xiao Ying is already a hundred years old, that's an old woman! Furthermore, she is so bold and open with none of the air of a fine lady."

In saying this, the tiger boy had indirectly offended Suzaku who's standing to the side. There's a darkened air exuding out of the lady's aura, and by the time the foolish tigerling realized his own folly, pyres of flame had already burst forward to give the phoenix an ominous and threatening picture.

"A hundred years is considered old in your opinion? I've lived for a thousand years, what does that make me?"

Little Rice shrank at the frightening temperament and hurried to hide behind Bai Yan's back: "Mistress, can you save me..."

Instead of saving though, the demon queen narrowed her eyes in at the young feline: "A hundred years is an old woman eh? How about Di Cang, wouldn't he be considered an old man in your eye?"

The tiger boy gulped, his face pale and antsy.

Yes, Di Cang was indeed an old man in his eye, but how could Little Rice openly say that? He wouldn't dare!

"How is that possible? The king is handsome and peerless in all respect, how can he be an old man when he's so seductive? I will challenge anyone who says that!" Making an angered face like he meant it, he attempts to cover his own hide in case the man somehow overhears. "Mistress, Suzaku, I merely misspoke there, Huang Xiao Ying is a young and beautiful tigress, she's not an old woman at all. A hundred years, peehhh, that's barely old enough to be an adult in demon age, really..."

"Oh, then I will inform Di Cang about your view. I'm sure he will like it when he finds out he's seductive. I'm sure that will please him." Bai Yan smirks, the teasing fun flickering in her narrowed eyes.

Little Rice's face went green with fright. He's really going to cry if he continues to dig his own grave.

Mistress, when did you get so mean....

"Mother," Bai Xiachen giggles and tugged at her sleeve, "Let's stop teasing him, look at how much he's shivering. I'm afraid he might really faint at this rate. It's not like you don't know how jumpy he is when frightened."

That didn't help at all for the tiger boy's heart. The remark only made him all teary inside at being called a scaredy cat.

"Oh Little Rice, you need to stop being so scared all the time, Mother won't force you to marry anyone. Unless you are willing that is..."

Now some would wonder why they would kidnap State Teacher. Unlike with other people, that man truly loves the demon princess. He might not remember the past life, but he will and once he does, a little kidnapping means nothing and would be of no consequence.
