A beautiful and delicate face appeared to the young man after Nan Chiyou wipe the dust off her face.
The young man looked a little dumbfounded.
This little girl was so beautiful with fair skin and delicate features like a painting… So beautiful that people could not take their eyes off of her.
Nan Chiyou saw that Murong Qing had been staring at her face. She touched her face, confused. “I have not wiped it clean?”
“It is clean…”
The young man lowered his head, and his face started to turn red, seemingly a little shy.
Since he was young, he rarely had contact with people. He was always in the palace, not to mention that now in front of him was such a good-looking girl.
“Oh…” Nan Chiyou held her chin with her hand. A light flashed in her big beautiful eyes. “By the way, what are you doing here in this savage land?”
“We’re looking for Flower King.”
“Flower King?”
“Well, the physician said that there is a Flower King here. The fruit can cure me, but that fruit is useless after leaving the flower for an hour. So it cannot be taken back to the palace, and I must go in person.”
Nan Chiyou looked at the young man with some confusion.
“How come I have not heard of any fruit that becomes inedible in one hour after leaving the mother plant?”
“I’m not sure. The imperial physician said that, but I just heard on the way here that a silver wolf guards the flower… The king of silver wolves… I’m afraid this journey will be full of danger.”
‘Silver Wolf…’
Nan Chiyou frowned.
A figure vaguely emerged in her mind, but it was too vague and too long ago, so she could not recall it.
She vaguely remembered that… Was it a big dog?
Wolves and dogs were of the same ancestor five hundred years ago. Otherwise, the snow wolf would not have learned to bark. So, every time she heard about wolves, she would think of a dog.
“Don’t worry. Just leave this to me.” Nan Chiyou swore and patted her chest. “I can help you.”
“You?” The young man smiled. “That wolf is so fierce.”
Nan Chiyou was a bit distressed. She could not tell Murong Qing that the spirit beasts were all obedient to her.
She looked at the kitten lying next to her, and her eyes lit up. “Ah Bao is fierce too. It can help us.”
Ah Bao was stunned.
Ah Bao was just about to refute Nan Chiyou when it suddenly noticed that Murong Qing was scanning it as if he did not believe its fierceness. It immediately meowed fiercely and scratched Murong Qing.
Fortunately, Murong Qing blocked his handsome face with his hand, and the claw scratched the back of his hand, leaving a bloody scratch.
“Ah Bao!” Nan Chiyou frowned and scolded, “What are you doing?”
Ah Bao grunted and flopped proudly on the chair.
‘This human is looking down at me, so I have to show him how fierce I am…’
“Ah Bao!”
“Maiden Xia Xia…” Murong Qing smiled. “I’m fine. No need to blame it.”
“Oh, that’s good.” Nan Chiyou sighed in relief. “I was afraid you would make me pay for it. So it’s better if I scold Ah Bao first.”
Murong Qing was speechless.
He somewhat felt that Xia Xia was too cute, completely different from the other women he had met in his father’s palace.
He thought about it for a moment and said, “Don’t worry. I have money, and if you don’t have money, I can give some to you. I have a lot of money to spend.”
