Suzaku Mai and Genbu Shi had been observing silently from a distance.
Seeing Qin Luo suddenly take flight, he quickly appeared to help, but was a step too late.
But since I'm already here, I'd like to get straight to the point.
So, as the group prepared to return to the vine-covered hut, Suzaku Mai was the first to stop them.
"Wait a minute, we have something to say."
The three, who had intended to pretend they hadn't seen each other, stopped in their tracks upon hearing this. Qin Luo even took Mao Mao's little hand in hers.
"Sisters, is something the matter?"
Zhu Quewu awkwardly stepped forward, giving her an apologetic smile.
"I want to apologize to Mao Mao. Xuanwu Shi and I have already reflected on our words. We were careless with our mouths, and what we said might have been a bit harsh..."
The Black Warrior also stepped forward and quickly followed suit in admitting his mistake.
"We beasts haven't learned the poetry and etiquette of humans. We say whatever comes to mind and rarely consider the feelings of others, so please forgive us if anything makes you unhappy!"
Mao Mao never expected that these divine beasts would apologize to her in such a humble manner.
In comparison, my past resentment towards them seemed particularly petty.
Seeing the changing expressions on her face, Qin Luo knew she must feel genuinely guilty.
So he pushed her towards the two beasts.
"Mao Mao didn't blame you. Before the Domain Lord arrived, she even praised you two for your kind hearts!"
The two beasts were overjoyed upon hearing this.
"Really? Mao Mao, you're so kind. The Black Warrior spoke so rudely, and you didn't blame her at all."
The Xuanwu warrior, who was inexplicably pushed to take the blame, immediately retaliated indignantly.
"That's right, Mao Mao is just too kind. Even with Suzaku Mai's mouth being like it's coated in poison, you still forgive her..."
Seeing that the two of them were about to start arguing again, Mao Mao quickly spoke up.
"I know you two don't have any bad intentions, you just don't understand social etiquette. From now on, I'll call you by your names."
Upon hearing this, the two beasts stopped arguing and nodded repeatedly in agreement.
“Okay, we’ll definitely study hard. Once we’ve learned it, we’ll be able to win the hearts of other beasts just by talking, just like Kang Hua and Fei Yiyan.”
"Yes, I also want to be a sweet-talking beast and coax all the other beasts to come and help us with the work."
Qin Luo was nearly dying of laughter at the two of them. They were, after all, two of the four ancient divine beasts, yet they were resorting to human glib talk just to avoid work.
But since it was Mao Mao's turn to shine, she had no choice but to hold back her laughter.
Then, Mao Mao, like a little scholar, pulled Tengteng in front of him.
“You must apologize to my eldest sister before I teach you.”
The two beasts also realized that their previous words had hurt the vine too much.
After all, no living being wants to become a tool for reproduction.
So they both took a step back and bowed deeply to Tengteng.
"We apologize for our inappropriate words. We hope Tengteng and Dateng will forgive us for our mistake."
This was the first time Tengteng had ever received such a sincere apology from a beast, and her little face turned bright red with embarrassment.
"No, it's alright. I know you two didn't mean it, so I didn't blame you. Get up quickly, it's not good if other beasts see this."
The two beasts then straightened up and happily circled around the two little ones.
"Thank you for your forgiveness. When does Master Mao Mao plan to start teaching us?"
"Yeah, let's start now, since nobody can sleep anyway."
Upon hearing this, Mao Mao's face turned even redder than Tengteng's.
"Master?"
“Yes, you taught us, that’s our teacher, that’s what Yan He Yu Niao Dan said.”
Qin Luo then realized that the idioms they had used so readily before were probably taught to them by Jiao Yan and Qin Sheng.
But what intrigued her was that Qin Sheng could actually speak.
Previously in the beast realm, when I asked them for help with farming...
Qin Sheng was still in the Yu Niao clan, soaking in the hot spring in the clan's territory.
I went to see it a few times myself, so why didn't I hear it speak then?
She had her doubts, so she asked directly.
"Sister Wu, when did you hear Buxi speak?"
"Never-ending?"
"Oh, it's the Jade Bird Egg. Its formal name in the human world is Qin Sheng, and its nickname is Bu Xi."
"Wow, so it turns out that beasts that return from the human world have several names!"
After Suzaku finished speaking, the Black Warrior also sighed.
"I also want to change to a nicer-sounding name..."
Seeing that the two had gone off-topic, Maomao immediately brought them back on track.
"Please, sisters, focus on the key points and answer the eldest's question first."
Suzaku Mai finally snapped out of her reverie about changing her name.
"Oh, it couldn't hear it before. It was too weak when it first came back. It could only hear it after soaking in the hot spring for a long time."
"Yes, among us beasts, as long as both parties are willing, we can sense what the other is thinking. Generally, before the cubs are born, they communicate in this way."
"I see!"
After the two beasts explained, Qin Luo realized that the reason he couldn't hear the bird egg was because he wasn't a beast.
The reason Wu Hua couldn't hear it in the human realm was because the bird's egg was too weak at that time.
If I had known, I should have brought Wu Hua with me to go to the Chaos Land again.
I wonder if I'll ever have the chance to see this little guy in person again.
As she was thinking, the two beasts suddenly surrounded her.
The intensity in his eyes was so intense it almost melted her; Qin Luo instinctively took a few steps back.
"What are you two doing? Just say what you want to say, don't scare me like this."
After saying that, I saw Zhuque rub my hands together, and then speak shyly.
"Luo Luo, could you give me a formal name and a nickname too?"
