Bai Lu's attention was forcibly diverted again, and Ming Yao's words made the blush spread from his face to his neck.

Mingyao's small body was soft and cuddly, and a warm fragrance wafted over.

Bai Lu's heart was pounding. He had lived for ten thousand years and had never been hugged by a girl before.

Fan Ye chuckled softly, his gentle red eyes filled with intense laughter, revealing that his true emotions were far more joyful than he appeared on the surface.

Just as she was about to burst out laughing, she covered her mouth tightly, her fair face turning bright red from holding back her laughter.

On our first meeting, even if I don't give the goblin face, I have to give my brother face; I can't smile too obviously.

Su Ying also covered her mouth and stood behind Fan Ye, secretly laughing.

Fuyao could only sigh helplessly, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

It was one thing for my brother to be outshone before, but now that he's raising a pet, he's outshone him too?

But he couldn't compete with either of them, as they were both people close to him.

Fuyao looked at Bailu and said, "Bailu, from now on you will follow me and stay by my side at all times, so that I can protect you."

The white deer looked up at him, its antlers curved gently, its eyes full of obedience. "Yes, Master."

"Is Bailu your real name?" Fuyao hesitated for a moment before asking.

The white deer shook its head. "I am a goblin. I am called the white deer because I take the form of one."

Fuyao felt a pang of sympathy. This child should be about the same age as Mingyao. Not only did he live a life of hiding, but he didn't even have a name.

Perhaps Fuyao's expression was too obvious, Fan Ye looked up at the sky speechlessly. The combined age of everyone here was probably less than that short-legged guy.

“Now that I have become your master, I will give you a name,” Fuyao said.

The white deer perked up and asked, "Master, what's my name?"

Fuyao thought for a moment and said, "From now on, you will be called 'Luyao,' the 'road' of the white deer, and the 'yao' of a thousand miles away."

"Lu Yao thanks the master for bestowing this name upon him."

Lu Yao knew that Fu Yao wanted to tell him that time would tell, and that only by spending a long time together could one know whether a person was good or bad.

Is he telling him that he intends to test him out and see if he's a good match for his sister?

Lu Yao didn't know whether to be happy or cry; he wasn't interested in the little one at all. His blushing and racing heart were just because he'd never been hugged by a girl before, so it was understandable he was nervous—please don't misunderstand…

Seeing his bewildered expression, Fan Ye wanted to laugh even more.

Just then, a little yellow sparrow flew over and said, "Master, Master, Lang Yu is looking for you everywhere."

"I understand." Fan Ye looked at them. "Do you want to stay here, or come with me?"

“We’ll go with you,” Fuyao said.

"good."

The group left the cliff.

When Fan Ye saw Lang Yu, his mouth twisted with anger.

"What happened? Did someone beat you up?"

"It's even more infuriating than getting beaten up!" Lang Yu plopped down on the ground, sulking.

Fan Ye smiled and said, "Tell me what happened first."

Lang Yu said angrily, "I was thinking that since our demon population isn't as large as the three thousand demons, I wanted to recruit some demons from the Dabie Mountains. But I didn't expect these demons to be so shameless! They actually said that whoever wins, they'll decide who to submit to. Isn't this just blatantly taking advantage of the situation and watching the two sides fight it out?"

"Is this all you're talking about?" Fan Ye raised an eyebrow.

"Aren't you angry?" Lang Yu retorted.

"Should I be angry? They're a bunch of stragglers, and you want to incorporate them into my properly trained demon army! You want to, I don't. You better give me some face and reconsider your actions."

Lang Yu was stunned by the scolding.

Bai Lu's attention was forcibly diverted again, and Ming Yao's words made the blush spread from his face to his neck.
