32: Chapter 32: The Magical Tea_1 32: Chapter 32: The Magical Tea_1 “Don’t talk nonsense!
I’m not!
I definitely didn’t sign a Divine Beast contract with Nagna.”
Feng Yuan hastily answered, and seeing that Xiao Ji in his arms wasn’t angry, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Captain Chen looked at Feng Yuan suspiciously and said,
“If you didn’t sign a Divine Beast contract, how could you command Nagna?
Becoming a Divine Pact Maker is a good thing, you don’t need to worry.”
“I wasn’t commanding it.
I just asked it for help, and maybe it liked because I have a pure heart～”
“Ha!
You?”
“Sister Chudie!
It will hurt my feelings if you talk about like that!”
“Hmph, considering you helped that little lizard, I won’t tell Xiao Ji about how Granny Mianlan dealt with you back then.”
“Ji?”
Seeing that Xiao Ji seed curious, Feng Yuan quickly held Xiao Ji and moved away from Cen Chudie.
After a while, Captain Chen ca over and asked Feng Yuan,
“Are you really not a Divine Pact Maker?”
“No!”
“Ah…”
“What’s wrong?
You look so disappointed.
Did sothing happen?”
Seeing Captain Chen’s sowhat disappointed look, Feng Yuan was puzzled.
Captain Chen glanced at Feng Yuan and said,
“It seems like this year’s National High School Beastmaster Competition first place has already been determined…”
“What?
They’ve decided the champion just like that?
That’s way too shady!”
“Nonsense.
Among this year’s contestants, only Wu Feng from Featherwood City is a Divine Pact Maker, no one else stands a chance against him.”
“Ji!”
After calming down the agitated Xiao Ji, Feng Yuan said sowhat puzzled,
“Divine Pact Makers and ordinary people in the sa competition?
What were they thinking?
This doesn’t give others much of a chance, does it?”
Captain Chen looked at Feng Yuan and said,
“After all, Divine Pact Makers are ordinary people too; there’s no reason to disqualify them from competing.
It’s a sha you’re not a Divine Pact Maker; otherwise, you might stand a slim chance at taking the championship.”
“A slim chance?
Which Divine Beast is bound by contract to Wu Feng?”
“The Vermilion Bird.”
“It’s one of the Five Elents Divine Beasts!
They’re really planning to trounce everyone!”
Feng Yuan exclaid in surprise.
Captain Chen shook his head and said to Feng Yuan,
“Later when you get back to Cotton Orchid Manor, don’t wander off; I’ll take you back to school later.
Rember!
No wandering off!”
“Okay～”
After saying goodbye to Cen Chudie and Yun You, who were talking to the little lizard, Feng Yuan walked toward Cotton Orchid Manor holding Xiao Ji.
On the way, Feng Yuan said to Xiao Ji with a smile,
“The Divine Pact Maker of the Vermilion Bird, huh?
I wonder if you’ll be able to take him on when the ti cos～”
“Ji?!”
“Did you forget?
You’re a future Divine Beast～ Even if you can’t unleash your full power without tamorphosis now, as long as you work hard, it shouldn’t be too difficult to beat Wu Feng, after all, Divine Pact Makers can’t indefinitely use the power of Divine Beasts without limits.”
“Ji!”
Seeing that Xiao Ji was instantly fired up with fighting spirit, Feng Yuan chuckled and said,
“You’ll have to train hard on your own when the ti cos～ I won’t be training with you～ You’re used to it by now, right?～”
“Ji!”
“Ow!
That hurts!
Xiao Ji, really!
Even if you’re unhappy, don’t peck !”
“Ji!”
“Whoa～”
The Dreaming Dragon Baby glanced disdainfully at Xiao Ji, then cuddled up on Feng Yuan’s shoulder and dozed off.
Xiao Ji, staring with its sapphire-blue eyes, kept a fixed glare on the Dreaming Dragon Baby.
Feng Yuan glanced at the weary look of the Dreaming Dragon Baby and weighed the Xiao Ji in his arms, gesturing it to be quiet.
“Ji!”
Xiao Ji, annoyed, turned its back to Feng Yuan.
Back at Cotton Orchid Manor, Feng Yuan explained to Granny Mianlan what had just happened and went to the dining room holding Xiao Ji.
Feng Yuan took the tea offered by a long-haired, gentle-looking woman and said,
“Thank you～”
“You must be exhausted from running around all afternoon.
Do you want to prepare a room for you to stay the night?”
“No need, no need.
I have classes tomorrow.
I’ll wait for Captain Chen; he said he’d take back.”
“Sigh, those people at G Organization really…
So, will you be having dinner here today?”
After placing Xiao Ji on the table and giving it a cup of tea, Feng Yuan said,
“I don’t know, it depends.
Captain Chen might co early and probably go back to school to eat.”
“Ji?”
“It’s almost dinner ti now, you might as well eat here~ I’ll talk to Captain Chen about it.”
“Alright, thanks, Zi Huai sis~”
Seeing Xia Zihuai leave with a tray, Feng Yuan said to Xiao Ji, who was staring blankly at his teacup,
“Co on, Xiao Ji, try so.
You spirit beasts surely won’t dislike the taste of Cotton Orchid Flower tea~”
“Ji?”
“Ao~”
“Don’t make trouble~”
Seeing the Dreaming Dragon Baby suddenly rush over and stick its head into the teacup in front of Xiao Ji, Feng Yuan said with a hint of amusent as the Dreaming Dragon Baby lifted its head, its eyeballs rolled, and under Xiao Ji’s angry gaze, it coiled its body, lifting the teacup into the air to a place beyond Xiao Ji’s reach and leisurely savored the Cotton Orchid Flower tea,
“Ji!”
Seeing Xiao Ji stand up, stomp its paws, and look resentfully at the Dreaming Dragon Baby floating in the air, Feng Yuan smiled and took out a new teacup, pouring another cup of tea for Xiao Ji,
“Okay, you two, really, here, Xiao Ji, this one’s for you.”
“Ji~”
“Ji~~”
After taking a tiny sip, Xiao Ji’s eyes glead as he looked at the teacup, then lifted his head to gaze at the Dreaming Dragon Baby floating in the air, and moved himself to block the Dreaming Dragon Baby’s line of sight to the teacup, sampling the Cotton Orchid Flower tea in small sips.
“Tired, huh?
Co down.”
“Ao~”
The Dreaming Dragon Baby cautiously glanced at Xiao Ji and, noticing that Xiao Ji rely shot it a glance, cheerfully brought the cup down to a spot far from Xiao Ji.
“Good work~”
“Ao~”
“Ji!”
Seeing Xiao Ji hugging the teacup and staring at him, Feng Yuan smiled and picked up the teapot to fill the Dreaming Dragon Baby’s cup and also topped up Xiao Ji’s with the floral tea.
“It seems both little guys really like this tea.”
“Granny~”
“Zi Huai, bring so tea snacks over.”
“Oh, okay!”
Granny Mianlan watched with a smile as Xiao Ji and the Dreaming Dragon Baby sat at the table tasting tea.
She reached out to gently stroke Xiao Ji’s fluffy head.
Xiao Ji stiffened and, under Feng Yuan’s warning glare, looked back at him with so dissatisfaction before continuing to taste the floral tea.
“There’s only a little tea snacks left, I can make so more if needed.”
“No need, this is enough, thanks Zi Huai sis~”
“You try this, you might like it~”
Feng Yuan said, distributing the tea snacks to Xiao Ji and the Dreaming Dragon Baby.
Xiao Ji defiantly glanced at the Dreaming Dragon Baby, picked up the plate of snacks, and turned his back on the Dreaming Dragon Baby.
Granny Mianlan poured herself a cup of tea, took a sip, and said seriously to Feng Yuan,
“Things have been chaotic lately.
If you don’t have anything particularly important, try not to co here to Granny’s place.”
“Granny doesn’t welco ?”
“Having a spirit beast with the legendary potential of a Fire Vermilion Bird must an that person has a high status within the Organization.
Just recently, those people stirred up trouble, and now another high-ranking individual from the Organization has appeared.
There must be sothing in Maomu City attracting them.”
“For your safety, it would be best if you don’t leave school too much for the ti being.”
Seeing Granny Mianlan’s solemn expression, Feng Yuan put down his cup and hesitated before saying,
“Okay, I’ll try to avoid leaving school as much as possible.”
“You look unhappy, do you think Granny’s being too nosy?”
“No…”
Granny Mianlan sighed, looking sowhat regretful, and said,
“It’s a pity you’re too old, otherwise Granny might have been able to arrange a Divine Pact Maker’s status for you.
With the status of Divine Pact Maker, you wouldn’t need to worry about the threats from the G Organization.”
“Granny can arrange for the status of a Divine Pact Maker?!”
Feng Yuan looked at Granny Mianlan in surprise.
Granny Mianlan seed to be reminiscing about sothing, a faint smile crossing her face while tears brimd in the corners of her eyes.
The Dreaming Dragon Baby put down the snacks, floated over to the tissue box, carefully wiped its paws, grabbed a few tissues, and floated them over to Granny Mianlan,
“Thank you.”
Taking the tissues from the Dreaming Dragon Baby, Granny Mianlan wore a smile, gently wiping away the tears from the corner of her eyes, and said,
“Granny has so connections with Drudgeon.
Given your talent in potion studies, if you were younger, maybe Drudgeon would have been willing to sign a Divine Beast pact with you.”
