Li Qian smoothed the feathers of his Gray Bean Dove, Xiaohui, and gave a gentle wave. He then set off at a steady, unhurried pace, quickly leaving the rockery behind.
Xiaohui might not have understood much of the long speech Li Qian had given earlier, its eyes showing confusion. However, the simple and direct wave was something it understood instantly.
Understanding Li Qian's meaning, it didn't hesitate—nor did it dare to. It immediately followed him.
It had no choice but to follow. This human before it might look harmless and seem like no threat, but Xiaohui knew very well that he had two other enforcers—two extremely vicious Pet Beasts.
If it didn't obey, it would probably get beaten to a pulp again. Er, why did I say "again"...? It was obvious that prior to this, it had already experienced the full extent of those two's ferocity.
It was a feeling Xiaohui had absolutely no desire to experience a second time, so it chose to be a wise bird and adapt to the situation.
