"Ghost Face!" Shang Xiye's face was grim, and his aura was extremely oppressive. "Do you want to rebel?"
The beasts watching were all frightened by his sudden low mood, and they all shrank back, not daring to utter a word.
Ghost Face, however, saw through Shang Xiye's seemingly cold-hearted but actually cunning scheme at a glance. He even hopped around a couple of times, saying, "Today, Ghost Face has rebelled! I'm sticking with you, so don't even think about abandoning me again. Go ahead and kill me if you dare! Kill me and see how you explain it to the mistress!"
Say the most cowardly things in the most arrogant tone.
Who is better at this than him? Just ask who else!
"Fine, I can't control you anymore. Let's terminate the contract. I won't care about your life or death anymore." Shang Xiye turned around.
"Tsk tsk, you make it sound as heartless as you say." Ghost Face remained completely unfazed. He walked up to Shang Xiye, rubbed his forehead against Shang Xiye's shoulder, and said, "Alright, Master, I know you're doing this for my own good. If you really didn't want to care about me, you wouldn't be threatening me with this. Don't worry, don't you know me? I'm a ruthless runner, always ready to escape. I fled all the way from the Northern Border to here. Trust me, if there's any danger, I'll run for my life and never let myself die before you. Is that alright?"
Shang Xiye lowered his eyes: "..."
This dog has even learned to be sentimental.
“Master, think about it. If you all die inside, the demon army will invade, and the entire Origin Continent will become the domain of demons.” Ghost Face rubbed against Shang Xiye again, not hesitating to belittle himself, and said, “We have been good partners who have fought together for many years. Without your wise leadership, with my IQ, do you think I could survive outside?”
Shang Xiye rolled her eyes: This dog has really gone bad!
Come to think of it, the Ghost Mask has such an extraordinary origin that he wouldn't feel comfortable leaving it alone in an unfamiliar environment.
"At least you have some self-awareness. Well then, you can come along, lest you be caught by wild boars and wild dogs and used for breeding, thus improving their offspring's bloodline. That would truly be pitiful," Shang Xiye said, patting the ghost-faced man's head with great pity, as if he had been caught by him before.
Ghost Face: "...!"
Listen to this! Is this human language?!
His master... is he even human?!
What was said without malice may have been taken to heart by the listener.
Upon hearing the words "optimize the bloodline of offspring," all the demon beasts turned their gazes intently to the ghost-faced creature, practically drooling.
Ghostface felt a chill run down his spine from being stared at, and immediately flew into a rage: "What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen such a cool beast before!"
All the demonic beasts shook their heads in unison, indicating: We have never seen a divine beast of your kind before.
Ghost Face: "..." He quickly took off chasing after Shang Xiye.
You heartless and unscrupulous master, wait for Mianmian, Mianmian is scared!
Hearing the panicked footsteps of Ghost Face running behind him, Shang Xiye couldn't help but smile, revealing the first relieved smile since parting ways with everyone.
That warm and gentle smile, like the first rays of the sun after the rain, illuminated the earth with a bright and dazzling light.
The light also caught Xue Bingling's unintentional glance, her heart blossoming with spring, her eyes and heart filled with his smile, which she could never forget.
Xue Bingling's slender, long fingers curled slightly into her palms, her heart filled with longing:
If one day she could receive such a smile from him, she would die without regret.
She was also filled with curiosity: what kind of woman was so fortunate to receive such a sincere affection from such a perfect man?
