Quiet.

There was a quietness in the corridor.

For a long time, Xu Sili looked around.
After determining that Shadow Nine and Shadow Eleven were still guarding by the side and that there was no one else around, he walked toward the big yellow dog.

The big yellow dog’s body was probably a bit higher than his knees but compared with the majestic shadow leopard, this figure could be described as petite.

It looked ordinary, like a common dog in the countryside.
Of course, its appearance could be regarded as pretty good in the dog world.
It was a bit handsome.
In particular, the pair of dark brown eyes was as special as Asheng’s sea green.

Xu Sili looked at the big yellow dog and determined that it wasn’t aggressive before crouching down in front of it.

“Ah Huang?” Xu Sili was a bit confused looking at the dog in front of him.

He had seen a big yellow dog in Mercenary Town but he hadn’t looked closely.
It was just that the similarity was so high that he suddenly thought about that dog.

“Woof—”

The yellow dog sat on the ground and cocked its head at Xu Sili.
The pair of round eyes were full of spirituality.

“Is it really you?” Xu Sili blinked and tentatively held out his hand.
He saw that the yellow dog didn’t mean to attack him and slowly touched the top of its head.

“Woo~”

The yellow dog barked, its furry tail raised high and wagging from side to side.
This appearance of being close to people was really pleasing to the eye.

Xu Sili had also raised a dog before.
It was a golden retriever and had beautiful golden fur.
Xu Sili had raised him from childhood until he died, which made Xu Sili sad for a while.

Xu Sili rubbed the dog’s head.
Then after he raised his hand, he found that his hand was covered in yellow soil.
He didn’t care.
He just grabbed his handkerchief and wiped it clean.
Then he asked with a smile, “Are you here to find Asheng?”

After asking, Xu Sili suddenly became stunned.

From Mercenary Town to the inner city, the average person had to walk two days and two nights.
Not to mention, running to the palace was clearly something that an ordinary dog wouldn’t be able to do.

He looked at the big yellow dog in front of him, expression a bit heavy.
He didn’t hesitate and directly used Insight.

[Chamo]

[Race: Silver Wolf (Escher Star Ancient Beast)

Level: Lv 40

Health: 5,000/198,500

Magic: 850/75,000

Talent: Space manipulation

Negative state: Weakness (severely injured, unable to completely recover the body), sleeping (the master consciousness is in a coma.
The body is controlled by the subconscious).]

Xu Sili was stunned.
Fu*k! This yellow dog was actually an ancient beast on Escher Star? He was an ancient beast like the shadow leopard?

Wait… silver wolf? He stared at the dog’s yellow fur and couldn’t help feeling a bit suspicious.
Could there be a mistake? Was this a silver wolf?

The body size might be small but he looked very healthy! Where did it look like he had a serious injury and weakness? Xu Sili stared blankly at the information.
There was also the talent…

Space manipulation? What was this? Was it the type of space manipulation he imagined? Did the dog use this ability to run so far in a short period of time?

He looked at the tail wagging in front of him.
The big yellow dog had its tongue stuck out and was laughing.
He thought about it before speaking tentatively.

“Chamo?”

Then he stared at the yellow dog.
The yellow dog looked around before looking at him with a cocked head.
There were doubts written in his small eyes, as if he was asking, ‘What did you say?’

Xu Sili glanced at the attributes panel again.
His Insight hadn’t made a mistake so far.
He hesitated before standing up and saying, “Are you going to find Asheng? Come with me, I’ll take you to her.”

“Woo~” The big yellow dog shook his tail and gave a cheerful cry.

Xu Sili looked down at the big yellow dog, his eyes a bit complicated.
This was an ancient beast! He seemed very powerful.
Even when injured and asleep, he could still use space manipulation.

He couldn’t help the thought of taking in this dog.
Then he soon pressed down this idea again.

The big yellow dog obviously had a good relationship with Asheng and… something flashed in Xu Sili’s mind—

He seemed to have heard Asheng mention Chamo? Yes.
He had asked her why she was so afraid of being sold.
She said Chamo told her that little girls like her were the favorite of the nobles!

It seemed that Asheng and Chamo should be in contact or Chamo was Asheng’s contracted beast.
By the way, why was the dog called Ah Huang?

Xu Sili frowned.
He couldn’t figure it out so he temporarily put it behind him for the time being.
In any case, it wasn’t an important thing.

He looked down at the big yellow dog again.
He thought about how he became dirty just touching the dog and suddenly understood.

He walked forward at a pace that was a bit faster than just now.
The big yellow dog closely followed the young man.
He struck out his tongue and looked left and right.
Everything he saw felt novel.

***
 

Janice’s residence.

In front of the dresser, Asheng sat after taking a bath and changing into a puffy dress.
She looked at the woman reflected in the mirror who was gently combing and braiding her hair.
She looked at Janice with bright sea green eyes.
There was a bit of joy and admiration in them.

Asheng could feel Janice’s love for her.
She had been wandering around, uprooted since she was a child.
She seldom felt such warmth.

Sometimes she would feel envious when she saw children her age being taken care of by their parents.
However, she was just a wild child that no one wanted.
She didn’t have a mother or a father.

“Young Lady Asheng, what do you think of this? Do you like it?” Janice tied her hair and looked at the silver-haired and green-eyed girl in the mirror who was like a doll, affection overflowing from her words.

Janice had always liked children.
Besides, Asheng was so cute! Her elven blood meant her facial features were as perfect as a painting.

Little Asheng nodded.
She actually thought the clothes she was wearing were cumbersome but since Janice liked them so much, it didn’t matter if she wore them to make Janice happy.

She said seriously, “I’m not a young lady.
I have to work for His Majesty brother.
You can call me Asheng.”

Janice laughed and nodded.
“Yes, Asheng.
Are you hungry? I have pastries here.”

She took out a box of pastries from the cabinet, placing it on the dresser and moving it to the small child.

“Is it all for me?” Asheng confirmed.

“Yes.” Janice nodded and touched the thin face with some heartache.
“Asheng, you can eat as much as you want.
His Majesty told me to take good care of you.”

Asheng grinned.
Then she stretched out two small hands.
She grabbed a few pieces of pastry and wanted to stuff them in her pockets, only to find the tutu skirt had no pockets.

Janice sensed her intention.
Rather than saying anything, she took out a small cloth pouch from the drawer and handed it over.
“Use this.”

Little Asheng smiled at her.
“Thank you, Janice.”

She finished politely and reached out for the cloth bag, filling it with the pastries one by one.

Janice saw this and finally couldn’t help saying, “Asheng, you don’t need to save it.
I have a lot.
Tell me whenever you want to eat.”

“Yes!” Asheng nodded energetically but she still put most of the cakes in the cloth bag, leaving only two for herself.
She held the pastry and nibbled on it like a small squirrel.

Janice smiled seeing her like this.
She went to pour a cup of tea, letting Asheng eat slowly.

Asheng soon finished eating the two pastries.
Suddenly, there was the sound of footsteps outside the door.
At the same time, the voice of a maid was heard.
“I greet Your Majesty.”

Janice heard a voice and hurried out.
She saw the emperor standing in the corridor, motioning for the little maid to excuse herself and hurried over.
“Your Majesty, why are you here?”

Xu Sili looked at her and smiled.
“I’m looking for Asheng.”

Janice disagreed.
“You should call us.
How can you come here in person?”

Xu Sili ignored her and looked at Janice’s little tail who had followed her.
Asheng wore a tutu dress and really did look like a little princess.
However, at this moment, the little girl’s eyes weren’t on him.

“Ah Huang!” Asheng ran over happily.

The big dog shook his tail.
Nevertheless, he issued a whining sound like he was complaining about something.

“I didn’t leave you behind.” Asheng touched the dog’s head and showed him the small cloth pouch.
“Look, this is for you!”

The big yellow dog immediately cheered up and whimpered in a begging manner.

Xu Sili shook his head and looked at Janice.
“Take this silly dog away and wash him.
He is so dirty!”

Janice took the lead and spoke to Asheng.
Then the two of them led the yellow dog to the bathroom.
The yellow dog didn’t know what he was going to face next.
He followed in a happy manner.

Xu Sili looked at the dog and smiled.
This stupid look was very similar to his big golden retriever.

“Your Majesty.”

He was feeling a bit emotional when a male voice was heard.
Xu Sili’s heart jumped.
He looked over and found that Si Sheng was standing beside him.
A pair of gray-blue eyes were looking at him.

Xu Sili’s eyes widened slightly and his heart jumped with shock.

“You… when did you come?” He questioned and even felt a bit shocked.

Si Sheng pursed his lips and looked in the direction where Janice and the others left.
He replied with no expression on his face.
“I just arrived.”

Xu Sili calmed down his heartbeat.
He looked at the cold side profile of the man’s face.
He vaguely felt that this man seemed to be in a bad mood and couldn’t help finding it a bit strange.

He squinted and followed Si Sheng’s gaze to the end of the corridor.
There was a moment of silence.
Then Xu Sili couldn’t help wondering, “What’s wrong with you?”

Si Sheng didn’t answer immediately.
The wind blew his golden hair and fluttered gently.
He seemed to be angry but the cold and indifferent air was soon replaced by a bit of loss.

Just when Xu Sili thought he wouldn’t get an answer, the man looked at him.
The beautiful gray-blue eyes focused on him with a bit of grievance.
“This servant thought Your Majesty had gone alone.
You left this servant again.”

The man’s voice was slightly accusatory.

 

Xu Sili was stunned and looked up at Si Sheng.
This person was completely without any coldness at the moment.
His eyes were wet and slightly glistening with light, reminding Xu Sili of that night.

They went to Imperial City and came back.
In the corridor, Si Sheng had looked at him the same way.

It was quite different from the usual cold and domineering dignity.
Besides being handsome, it was also… a bit cute.

The young man’s lips pursed and he unknowingly ran his hand down his long hair.
His eyes fell on this man’s chest.
He saw the blue stone hanging on the chest, swinging slightly.
The amplitude was very small but it was like a hit to Xu Sili’s heart.

Xu Sili thought that he was a bit strange at the moment.

He tried to ignore the strangeness in his heart.
He looked away and explained, “You weren’t outside when I left my bedroom.
Moreover, the entire palace is under your spiritual power.
Isn’t it easy for you to find me, like just now?”

“It’s not the same.” Si Sheng’s voice was low.

Xu Sili couldn’t help frowning.
“What is the difference?”

He didn’t feel it was any different.
As long as he was in the palace, Si Sheng could find him and move over in a flash.

What was the difference?

Si Sheng pursed his lips and he looked at Xu Sili seriously.
“Next time, you can tell me.
This servant suddenly found you were gone and… I was worried.”

He was so focused and earnest.
His fiery eyes made Xu Sili afraid to meet his gaze.
“But you weren’t there.”

His eyes evaded.
“It is safe in the palace.
Even if I do encounter danger, I can summon you over.”

This skill required Si Sheng’s consent for the summoning case to succeed.
Xu Sili didn’t believe that as a puppet, Si Sheng wouldn’t know about the existence of this skill.

Then he heard the man ask, “Are you really going to summon me?”

Xu Sili paused.
If it was before, he hadn’t intended to use this skill because… he didn’t believe in Si Sheng and didn’t want to count on him.
Yet just now, he blurted it out.
Could it be that he instinctively thought… Si Sheng could be trusted? Such recognition made Xu Sili frown slightly.

Si Sheng…

His performance these days had indeed earned a bit of Xu Sili’s trust but…

He hadn’t got his revenge yet! The previous matter of stepping on his chest, holding the gun against him, using Thunder’s Wrath and almost killing him twice wasn’t over yet! He was small-minded and he held a lot of grudges!

Xu Sili pursed his lips and said, “I will if it is a last resort.”

Si Sheng looked down at him for a long time.
Then Si Sheng stepped back and fell to one knee.
“This servant is waiting for Your Majesty’s call at any time.”

The man spoke sincerely and solemnly, but Xu Sili didn’t know what to do.
In addition to being small-minded and holding grudges, he was also amenable to coaxing.
It was okay if Si Sheng was still as cold as before but now…

Xu Sili was very troubled and he spoke somewhat impatiently, “I know.
Get up first.”

Si Sheng stared at him with slightly dark eyes.
He didn’t say anything else.
He rose silently as if covered with a haze of gloom.

Xu Sili glanced at him and suddenly felt troubled.
He scratched his head as he thought of something.
Then he asked, “What’s your communicator number?”

Si Sheng raised his eyes and looked at Xu Sili with surprise.
He quickly reported a string of figures.

Xu Sili raised his wrist and entered the communicator number.
He sent Si Sheng a message and turned off the communicator.
“I’ll send you a message later.
Is that okay?”

He glared at Si Sheng and spoke in a not very nice manner.

Si Sheng looked at his communicator and couldn’t help smiling slightly when he saw the smiling face the young man had sent along with the message.
“This servant is looking forward to it.”

He looked at Xu Sili and replied in a warm voice.

What was he looking forward to? Xu Sili sending him a message? Xu Sili had a question mark but seeing the smile on Si Sheng’s face, this person seemed really satisfied.
Xu Sili also slowly smiled.

This guy… there was nothing else Xu Sili could do.

“So what did you just do?” At this time, Xu Sili took the opportunity to pull out another thorn in his side.
Si Sheng was clearly the one to leave him but he hadn’t even asked about this crime.
Si Sheng had questioned him first.

The smile on Si Sheng’s face decreased a bit.
He raised his eyebrow and said, “There was a small clue about the remnants of the traitors who colluded with Bewatt.
This servant went to check it out but there was no special discovery.”

Xu Sili’s expression became serious.
He always remembered that the night he came to this world, a maid hid in the shadows and wanted to take the opportunity to control him or kill him to create chaos.

The maid had accompanied Snow Roland for many years and was an elementalist, yet she still became a traitor.
The group of lizardmen from the Bewatt Empire couldn’t be underestimated.

At the very least, the wealth they possessed was beyond the current Roland Empire.
The moment money was involved, there would always be people who wavered and were willing to take risks.

“You must have people keep an eye on it.” Xu Sili ordered with a cold face.
“Anyone who is caught will be killed with no mercy!”

They dared to commit treason and naturally had to pay the price.
These people wanted to kill and harm him.
For these lackeys and traitors, Xu Sili wouldn’t be soft-hearted.

Si Sheng nodded.
His expression was also cold and ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
Anyone who dared to hurt Lord God would die!

The two people were still talking when a figure frantically ran out from the direction of the bathroom.

“Woof! Woof!” It was very familiar barking but the image of the yellow dog had changed.

The originally yellowish fur had been washed and showed off its original silver-gray color.
He was barking but he really did have the image of a wolf.
Unfortunately, his hair wasn’t completely dried and he was dripping with water.

He ran wildly and was followed by a helpless Janice.
Her clothes were completely soaked and she looked embarrassed.

Si Sheng saw the creature that looked between a wolf and a dog and frowned slightly.
He stepped forward in front of Xu Sili.

Ah Huang, who was running wild, became frightened by Si Sheng’s aura and hurriedly stopped.
He slid forward a few meters and just barely managed to stop in front of them.

“Ah Huang, don’t disturb His Majesty!”

Janice’s angry voice rang out.
She ran after the dog with two small maids by her side.
Just before they got close, Ah Huang leaned down slightly and launched without hesitation—

A water attack!

Janice was splashed with water once again.
Meanwhile, Xu Sili was protected by Si Sheng’s wind shield and was unscathed.

Ah Huang frantically flung the water and his fur became fluffy.
He vaguely had a handsome appearance.

The dog cocked his head to look at Janice, whose anger level was building but who was unable to attack due to Xu Sili’s presence.
Then he wagged his tail.

Everyone present was stunned.
It was because Ah Huang’s tail moved like a knife, cutting a crack in the air.
The scared Ah Huang wanted to enter the crack.

Too frightening! It was too frightening here! Catching a dog to take a bath!

“Ah Huang!” Asheng chased him.

Ah Huang looked back at her.
He slightly hesitated and whined, as if saying something to her.
Then he turned his head and tried to enter the crack.

Run away!

Everyone hadn’t expected that after Ah Huang entered that crack, he… didn’t disappear as expected.
It was like jumping over a circle.
He jumped from one side to the other, falling back to the same place and falling over due to slipping.

Ah Huang lay on the ground and was obviously a bit confused.
Huh? Why couldn’t he do it?

The brown eyes were filled with doubts.
Then he saw the huge paw that appeared in front of him.

Ah Huang blinked and cocked his head.
Then he raised his gaze to see a black leopard countless times larger than him, standing in front of him and looking down at him.

The shadow leopard’s green eyes narrowed slightly.
“Chamo, is that you?”

Ah Huang continued to be confused and let out a questioning sound.

“Oh, you’re still alive.” The shadow leopard looked at the small dog in front of him.
“Your injury isn’t light.
I never imagined you would have a day like this.
You deserve it!”

Xu Sili was just as confused as Ah Huang.

Oh my god! Could September talk? Seeing this situation, he seemed to have a grudge against Ah Huang, no, Chamo?

He looked at the scene with some desire for gossip.

However, the shadow leopard no longer said anything to Ah Huang.
He looked at Si Sheng.
“Master, I came out without your summons.
Please punish me.”

As he spoke, he leaned down with a respectful look.

Si Sheng frowned and ignored September.
Instead, he looked at Ah Huang.
He hadn’t discovered it before because Ah Huang’s aura was too weak.
He thought this was just a dog which made him look away.

“A space ancient beast—a silver wolf?” He whispered.

Ah Huang sat on the ground and looked up at him.
He looked pure and harmless, but there was a really stupid look on his face.

Si Sheng frowned and suddenly turned his head to look at Xu Sili., “Your Majesty, are you interested in receiving this silver wolf as your servant?”

“Eh?” Xu Sili blinked.

“If you are interested, this servant can make a contract between you and this silver wolf.”

Xu Sili couldn’t help being stunned.
He stared at the dog’s bewildered face and frowned slightly.
“He… seems to have been seriously injured?”

“This servant can heal him.” Si Sheng’s voice was light.
“It is just a small thing.”

“He is with Asheng…”

“The silver wolf hasn’t made a contract with anyone.”

“That… can you restore the primary consciousness so I can ask him?”

Si Sheng frowned, his face cold and overbearing.

“It is an honor for the silver wolf to conclude a contract with Your Majesty.
If it wasn’t his natural ability and Your Majesty’s fondness for him, this servant would never contract such a weak ancient beast for Your Majesty! If the silver wolf dares to refuse…”

Si Sheng stared at the white dog on the ground, his eyes narrowed dangerously.

The shadow leopard to the side had already revealed a smug look.

Hahaha, Chamo, you also have a day like today!
