"Sizzle~"
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion tore apart a bag of potato chips with its paws, then plunged its mouth inside and took a big bite.
Immediately afterwards…
its eyes lit up!
"Waaaaah! So delicious… Chew, chew, chew… Is this the legendary potato chips… Chew, chew, chew…"
"And cola… gulp, gulp, gulp… Sizzle… This taste is so good… Humans really have a unique understanding of food… gulp, gulp, gulp…"
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion, one paw on cola, the other on potato chips, was thoroughly enjoying itself, tears of happiness streaming down its face.
Because the lives of spirit beasts are quite boring—nothing but cultivation, mating, eating, drinking, and sleeping—
being a glutton is an inherent attribute of every spirit beast. Only some spirit beasts with exceptionally high intelligence or powerful cultivation can forcibly escape this gluttonous nature.
Most spirit beasts, however, cannot resist the temptation of delicious food.
Just like cats cannot resist the temptation of cat treats and canned cat food.
This was also the main reason why Bai Zhou chose to lure the Three-Eyed Golden Lion with delicious food.
...
"Alright, Crimson King, you go back first. I'll go back after I finish my snacks." The Three-Eyed Golden Lion waved its paw at the Crimson King while eating its snacks.
"Okay, then hurry up, it's not safe here." The Crimson King nodded and then disappeared from the spot.
Although it was the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's protector, it couldn't follow the other's tail closely, after all, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion didn't like being monitored by others.
For example, sometimes when it went to the toilet... it always needed some private space...
Of course, it wouldn't go too far, as long as it sensed something was wrong, it could arrive in a few seconds.
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion had already gotten its snacks, and would probably go back after eating them, so it didn't need to worry too much.
...
"Hmph, finally gone~" The Three-Eyed Golden Lion snorted softly when it saw the Crimson King leave.
It was because the Crimson King was eavesdropping on its conversation with that human that it almost missed out on its snacks.
Now that the Crimson King is finally gone, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion plans to finish this batch of snacks and then try to trick the human into giving it some more.
...
Shrek Academy.
Bai Zhou guessed that the Three-Eyed Golden Lion had already tasted the snacks he had given it, so he opened the microcard again and sent a message to the Three-Eyed Golden Lion: [How was it? Did you receive the gift I sent?]
...
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was happily eating when it received Bai Zhou's message. So it opened the microcard with its greasy little hands and replied: [Mmm, it's delicious. Is there any more...?]
Although it was a bit ashamed for a dignified mythical beast to ask a human for snacks, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion was really greedy. Seeing that the snacks given this time were about to be eaten up, it felt inexplicably sad...
so it was seeing if it could ask for some more.
[Bai Zhou: Of course there is more, but your three-headed pet is so scary. I don't want to see it again.]
"Do you have any other pets? I like fluffy pets the most, preferably with golden fur. If I could have one, I'd be willing to feed it treats every day." "I don't like the Crimson King, this three
-headed dog, but I like fluffy, golden-furred pets... It's strange that a man likes this kind of pet..."
the Three-Eyed Golden Lion muttered, but a strange sense of joy welled up inside.
This is exactly the type of pet the other person likes!
If it pretends to be a pet to ask for treats, wouldn't that mean it could get free treats every day...?
Just thinking about it made its mouth water uncontrollably.
Moreover, according to the Crimson King, that human was just an ordinary, weak Soul King…
On a whim, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion replied: [Great! I happen to have a golden retriever pet. It loves snacks, especially potato chips, cola, and um, cream cakes, ice cream, sausages, malt candy… It's just so pitiful. If you have any extra snacks, could you give it some?]
…
Bai Zhou was almost speechless upon hearing the Three-Eyed Golden Lion's reply.
Good heavens! Although he had guessed the Three-Eyed Golden Lion might be a glutton, he hadn't expected it to be willing to sell its body for a bite to eat…
Unbelievable!
But thinking about it, it made sense.
At this moment, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion hadn't yet fused with Wang Dong's remnant soul.
Although its intelligence was high, it was essentially still an ordinary Soul Beast, practically a "darling" in the Star Dou Great Forest. Coupled with being so well protected, it had no guile whatsoever.
So it was indeed possible for it to say such a thing.
And, this suited his purposes perfectly.
[Bai Zhou: Okay, actually my martial soul ability is making snacks. If your pet comes with me, I'll definitely let it eat all sorts of different snacks every day. I'll give it as many as it can eat, and I'll definitely feed it until it's full!]
Bai Zhou promised confidently.
...
The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was overjoyed upon hearing this.
It sensed that the Crimson King wasn't around and quickly said, [Okay, then I'll... I'll have my pet come to you now! Same old place!]
Then it added, [By the way, my pet is very intelligent and can understand human language. Of course, you can't bully it. If it gets angry, it can be very fierce and might hurt you.]
[Bai Zhou: Don't worry, I love pets the most, especially such an intelligent one. How could I possibly bully it? Let it come over now. I have a lot of brand new snacks here. I hope it will like them.]
[Coming, coming, it'll be here soon!] The
Three-Eyed Golden Lion, impatient, seized the opportunity while the Crimson King wasn't paying attention and dashed out of the Star Dou Great Forest.
It sped towards the agreed-upon location.
As for danger, it was naturally unafraid.
After all, as an auspicious beast, it could use the power of destiny to conceal its aura. As long as it didn't use its own abilities, its aura would never be exposed.
And the human it was dealing with was just a minor Soul King. The Three-Eyed Golden Lion was confident that it could easily tear him apart even with its bare physical strength.
So it wasn't afraid of being tricked.
Besides, the other party certainly didn't know it was a Soul Beast in disguise, and it couldn't possibly have any designs on it.
It only needed to obediently pretend to be a pet, and it would have an endless supply of snacks every day—just thinking about it was exciting…
Meanwhile, the Crimson King was chasing its prey—a 30,000-year-old Soul Beast.
After all, the Crimson King was a carnivore and needed to eat. Although it ate only once in a long while, each meal required at least one 10,000-year-old Soul Beast.
What the Crimson King loved most was chasing its prey, watching it fall into despair, and then tearing it apart piece by piece... It was
so engrossed in the chase that it momentarily forgot about the Three-Eyed Golden Lion...
Of course, the Crimson King would never have imagined that in the time it took to eat, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion would be tricked into becoming crippled...
That's a bit outrageous...
