Huanhuan hoped that she could go home quickly. As for being bullied by Bai Luo, she would treat it as if she was bitten by a dog. Although she felt a little disgusted, she just had to not think about it.

But Bai Di refused to be fooled.

He looked at Xiong Shu. “Where’s Bai Luo?”

Xiong Shu lowered his head. “His Majesty is in the palace.”

Bai Di handed Huanhuan to Xue Ling. “Take her out of the city first. There are beasts from the chamber of commerce waiting outside the city. Go and meet them. I’ll talk to Bai Luo.”

Xue Ling agreed.

Huanhuan quickly grabbed Bai Di’s wrist. “Come with us!”

The palace was filled with Bai Luo’s and Wen Qian’s men. Bai Di would definitely suffer if he rushed back alone!

Bai Di’s thumb brushed her lips. The bite was blinding. “I’m his brother,” he said in a low voice. “I’m his only family in the world. There are some things I have to teach him.”

“But—”

Bai Di interrupted her, “Stay with Xue Ling. He can keep you safe. I’ll look for you when I’m done.”

Huanhuan looked at him with tears in her eyes. “But I’m worried about you.”

“I promise I’ll find my way back to you,” Bai Di said to Xue Ling as he pulled her hand away. “I’ll leave Huanhuan to you for now. I hope you’ll be a little more reliable this time.”

Xue Ling chuckled. “Alright, alright. Stop talking nonsense. You’re her mate, not her father. Do you have to worry so much?!”

Bai Di thought to himself, ‘Even if I were to raise a daughter, she wouldn’t be as precious.’

Seeing that Bai Di was about to ask Huanhuan to leave, Xiong Shu had no choice but to bite the bullet and interrupt, “His Majesty has already given the order that the second prince and his mate can’t leave Sun City…”

Before he could finish, he saw Xue Ling suddenly spread his wings.

His blood-red wings could almost cover the sky.

Under everyone’s gazes, Xue Ling flew into the sky with Huanhuan in his arms. He looked down at Xiong Shu and the other guards with a sneer. “You want to catch me with just you bunch of ugly people? Dream on!”

There was a team of eagle beasts in Sun City who was in charge of aerial patrol and defense.

Xiong Shu roared and called for the eagle beast team to come and help. They stopped Xue Ling and Huanhuan from leaving.

The eagle team quickly flew over.

But when they saw the huge fiery wings in the distance, they stopped.

They looked frightened and gathered to discuss softly.

“Am I seeing things? That’s Elder Xue Ling of the feather tribe, right?!”

“In the entire feather tribe, he’s the only one with flashy red wings. That’s right, it must be him!”

“F*ck, why is he here instead of staying in the feather tribe?!”

“Then should we go over?”

“Why should we go over? To sacrifice ourselves to him?!”

“But we’re already here. If we don’t go over and make it seem like we’re doing our jobs, we’ll be investigated by General Xiong. Our bonuses will definitely be deducted.”

…

In order to keep their monthly bonus of two crystals, the eagle team finally decided to take the risk.

When they were about ten meters away from the red feather beast, they stopped collectively.

Xue Ling looked back at them and asked casually, “Are you trying to stop me? It’s been a long time since I fought. Let’s practice together.”

The eagle team immediately retreated ten meters.

The captain was pushed out. He looked at Xue Ling from afar with a fawning smile. “We wouldn’t dare to fight you. We’re just here to greet you. Please help us greet Patriarch Shen Yan.”

Logically speaking, these eagle beasts belonged to the feather tribe. However, they left the feather tribe when they were very young and had been living outside. Now, they had settled in Sun City.

However, they were still very afraid of Elder Xue Ling, who was famous for being crazy.

It was not only because this guy was powerful, but also because his temper was really volatile. When he lost his temper, he wouldn’t recognize anyone. Even the leader of the feather tribe did not dare to go against him.

Xue Ling replied casually, “Is there anything else?”

“N-Nothing else.”

Xue Ling carried Huanhuan and flew away.

The eagle beasts maintained a respectful posture. They only heaved a sigh of relief when Xue Ling was far enough away that he was out of sight.

Huhu, they had finally sent the big shot away!

Xiong Shu, who was standing below and had watched the entire process, clenched his fists.

‘Do you bastards really think I’m blind?!’

Xiong Shu secretly made a note of these eagle beasts who accepted salaries but did nothing. He would settle the score with them later!

Huanhuan was taken away by Xue Ling, leaving Bai Di alone in the city.

Xiong Shu had people surround him.

“Your Highness, as much as I respect you, this is an order from the new king. We have no choice but to follow it.”

Bai Di said without changing his expression, “I’m going to see Bai Luo. Get out of the way.”

Neither Xiong Shu nor the guards moved.

Bai Di narrowed his eyes. “Don’t make me attack you.”

Xiong Shu still did not back down.

“Then I’ll have to offend you.”

Bai Di’s expression darkened. His hands transformed into sharp claws that flashed with lightning as he attacked!

…

Xue Ling slowly landed on the grass outside the city.

The beasts sent by the chamber of commerce were already waiting here. When they saw Xue Ling and Huanhuan descending from the sky, they were a little stunned.

Xue Ling’s wings were too big, and they had never seen those fiery red feathers before. They couldn’t figure out what breed he was, but their instincts told them that this person should be very powerful. It was best not to provoke him.

Just as they were watching carefully, Xue Ling walked over with Huanhuan.

Xue Ling glanced at the bone plates hanging on their chests. Printed on the bone plates was the golden leaf emblem unique to the chamber of commerce.

“Are you from the chamber of commerce?”

The middle-aged male beast in the lead stood up and replied carefully and respectfully, “Yes.”

Xue Ling said, “Bai Di sent us to look for you.”

The middle-aged male beast quickly said, “So, you’re friends of the second prince. My name is Mayne, and I’m the manager of the chamber of commerce. May I know your name?”

Xue Ling glanced at him. “You don’t deserve to know my name.”

Mayne was speechless.

Huanhuan pushed Xue Ling away. This guy’s personality was really bad. No wonder those eagle beasts looked like they had seen a ghost when they saw him just now!

She smiled at Mayne. “My name is Lin Huanhuan. I’m Bai Di’s mate. You can call me Lin or Huanhuan.”

Mayne was stunned by the little female’s smile.

This little female was really good-looking. Her skin was as fair as snow, her eyes were curved in a smile, and there were small dimples on both sides of her mouth.

Mayne, who had traveled extensively and seen many females, couldn’t help but be stunned by her.

Xue Ling pulled Huanhuan behind him. “Don’t smile at others for no reason. What if you cause trouble?”

Although he was facing Huanhuan when he said this, his gaze darted to Mayne.

Mayne’s scalp tingled under the gaze, and he quickly looked away.
