Chapter 108 - Stewing In One's Own Juice (1)

"Don't worry. I'll think of a way," Leng Ruoxue said comfortingly. How could she bear to disappoint Charm and Darling!

"What does this mean?" Leng Ruoxue looked at Huangfu Yu and pretended to be puzzled.

"We each tame one. Whoever can successfully tame it in the shortest time wins," Huangfu Yu explained. She had spent a lot of effort to borrow these two spirit beasts from the Beast Trainer Association.

"How should we split these two spirit beasts?" Leng Ruoxue asked. The levels of these two spirit beasts were different. The fox was a level nine holy beast. As for the one-horned golden python…

Leng Ruoxue carefully examined the golden python in the cage. No, this isn't a one-horned golden python.. There was a single horn growing in the middle of its golden head. But the horn of a one-horned golden python was pure white, and this horn was a white jade color. This should be… a one-horned golden flood dragon that is said to be extinct. One-horned golden flood dragons were the spirit beasts closest to the bloodlines of dragons. Moreover, one-horned golden flood dragons had another special skill, which was to conceal their levels. In that case, this one-horned golden flood dragon…

"Of course we will be drawing lots. This fox is a holy beast, and that one-horned golden python is a level nine spirit beast. We will tame whichever beast we draw," Huangfu Yu said in a seemingly very fair manner.

"Master, this dragon isn't a level nine spirit beast!" Charm reminded Leng Ruoxue with a cunning smile.

"Very fair. Let's see who's lucky." Leng Ruoxue nodded in agreement.

"You're the guest. I'll let you draw first."

"Big Brother Feng, could I trouble you to draw the lot for me?" She was too lazy to move.

"No problem. Big Brother Feng will definitely draw that level nine spirit beast for you," Feng Moran promised. He walked directly to the box and drew a small piece of paper.

"Ink fox." Feng Moran opened the paper and read the words on it in public. Alas! As expected, this Huangfu Yu really doesn't have good intentions!

"Leng Ruoxue, looks like your luck isn't good enough!" Huangfu Yu said complacently.

"Yes, it's not good enough. Congratulations, Princess," Leng Ruoxue said somewhat flusteredly.

"Then let's begin the competition now. But the loser has to be punished," Huangfu Yu said with a scheming face.

"What punishment?"

"The loser has to be the winner's servant. No matter what the winner wants you to do, you have to obey unconditionally," Huangfu Yu said.

"That's not a problem. But what I want to know is, if the beast taming is successful, who will the spirit beasts belong to?" Leng Ruoxue asked lightly. She didn't want to waste her efforts for others.

"They will belong to whoever successfully tames them." Huangfu Yu was sure that Leng Ruoxue couldn't tame a spirit beast, or else she wouldn't dare to say so.

"Princess, can you decide this? If you can't, then cancel the competition," Leng Ruoxue provoked.

"Of course I can decide!" Huangfu Yu roared angrily.

"It's good that you are in charge. I don't want any disputes in the future. I absolutely hate trouble," Leng Ruoxue said lightly.

"Everyone, please bear witness for Ruoxue. Princess Huangfu Yu said that the spirit beasts will belong to whoever tames them," she then said to everyone in the hall.

"Leng Ruoxue! What do you mean? You don't believe what this princess says!" Huangfu Yu hollered in disbelief.

"I really don't believe it unless you write it in black and white," Leng Ruoxue said very honestly. Good children should be honest.

"Okay, this princess will write it for you." Huangfu Yu was a little unsettled. Why is Leng Ruoxue so troublesome?!

"Someone, bring me a brush and paper!"

After finishing writing, Huangfu Yu handed the note to a maidservant. The maidservant walked to Leng Ruoxue and handed the note to her, but Leng Ruoxue didn't take it.

"Leng Ruoxue! What do you want now?"

"Nothing. I just want the princess's mother to be a witness for us," Leng Ruoxue said innocently. Anyone who dared to plot against me has to be prepared to suffer the consequences. Hmph! I'm not a kind little rabbit.

"In that case, I'll be your witness," Noble Consort Xu said confidently. This Leng Ruoxue is obviously stalling for time. I can't allow it.

After hearing this, the maidservant hurriedly handed the note to Noble Consort Xu. She then passed it to Leng Ruoxue after the Noble Consort Xu signed her name on it.

Leng Ruoxue took the note and read it carefully. Only after confirming that there were no mistakes did she put the note away.

"There shouldn't be a problem now, right?" Huangfu Yu asked while suppressing her anger.

"No problem."

"Then can we start now?" Huangfu Yu asked through gritted teeth. She really wanted to swallow Leng Ruoxue alive now.

"Of course!" Leng Ruoxue smiled lightly.

"Then let's begin!" Huangfu Yu walked directly to the cage of the one-horned golden python and began to tame it.

"Leng Ruoxue! Why aren't you starting?" Noble Consort Xu couldn't help asking. What does she want? Has she given up on her own accord? At this moment, Noble Consort Xu had countless questions in her mind.

"Princess's mother, be quiet. You will regret it if the princess turns into a fool because of your disturbance," Leng Ruoxue reminded lightly.

"You…" Noble Consort Xu's face turned green with anger when she heard what Leng Ruoxue said. But she really didn't dare to say another word.

"Lass, why aren't you taming the beast yet?" Elder Qiu asked curiously. He knew that this girl knew how to tame beasts back at Thousand Cry Mountain. Moreover, the beast she tamed was only a level five holy beast, while this one was level nine. Could this lass not be confident? Elder Qiu couldn't help letting his imagination run wild.

"Good things must wait. What's the rush?!" Leng Ruoxue said nonchalantly, as if the beast taming competition had nothing to do with her.

"Old Man Qiu, don't be like a eunuch! As the saying goes, the emperor is not worried, but his eunuchs are!" Leng Qingtian provoked.

"Are you calling me a eunuch? You old thing, you're asking for a beating!" Elder Qiu roared, fuming with rage.
