#871 - Chapter 871 Waiting
The next day, Lin Yaoyao woke up early, her mind filled with questions from the night before. She wanted to know what gift her master had prepared.
She came out early and strolled around the peach garden twice, her eyes constantly glancing in the direction of the Bitter Sea, her nose sniffing repeatedly.
Not a single whiff of roasted meat wafted out; she was almost ready to run over and ask directly.
Lin Yaoyao was now puzzled.
Really no roasted meat?
Xiaobai had just stepped out when he heard Lin Yaoyao calling his name, instantly feeling that the start was unfavorable. He was eager to employ the Thirty-Six Stratagems and retreat as the best option.
"Ergouzi, quickly turn around!" Xiaobai whispered to Erha.
"Xiaobai!" Lin Yaoyao increased her tone, a clear sense of anger audible.
"Oh dear, you stupid dog, if you don't hurry up and leave, see, you've been targeted again."
Xiaobai slapped his forehead, knowing there was no escape, and had to bite the bullet and go over.
"Eldest Senior Sister, you called me?" Xiaobai arrived at Lin Yaoyao's side, plastering a smile on his face as he spoke.
"Yes," Lin Yaoyao was clearly satisfied with his performance, the corners of her lips gently curving up.
"Xiaobai, you're out so early; why didn't you rest a little longer?"
Lin Yaoyao looked at him with a maternal smile.
Nonsense, what's the point of asking that? You're out here too.
"The spiritual herbs you sent me last time were really good; I recovered quite quickly. You put your heart into it."
Why bring up something that hurts? My spiritual herbs! I truly hate myself for being too weak.
Xiaobai forcefully suppressed the resentment in his heart, gritting his teeth, and said, word by word, "Senior Sister is too kind. I'm very happy to be able to help Senior Sister."
"Really?" The smile on Lin Yaoyao's face deepened.
Crap, did I say something wrong again? Xiaobai's mind began to churn.
Don't make me give spiritual herbs again! I don't have any left, really, I don't.
"Mmm, mmm," Xiaobai nodded, suppressing the feeling of his heart bleeding.
"Then… can you help me go to Master's place and see what kind of gift he's actually preparing?"
Lin Yaoyao quickly finished speaking her request.
"This…"
Lin Yaoyao saw that Xiaobai was a little hesitant, and the smile on her face immediately froze. She stared into Xiaobai's eyes, "Hmm?"
"Okay, okay!" Xiaobai said repeatedly. He seemed to be able to predict that in the next second, Lin Yaoyao's hand would be on his face, pinching his chubby cheeks.
Oh dear, what kind of world is this? I, a dignified Demon Emperor, have actually been reduced to this, having to act according to a woman's expression.
Most importantly, I can't do anything about it.
Xiaobai had to lament his tragic fate once again.
Once I cultivate to the Great Emperor Realm, I will definitely be the first to defeat Eldest Senior Sister, hmph.
As for Master, he seems to be getting more and more lovable, and not so annoying anymore.
When my spiritual and demonic dual cultivation is complete, I don't believe I won't be able to deal with that bitch.
Erha had been following Xiaobai for so long that he could roughly sense Xiaobai's emotions, so he walked very quickly.
Xiaobai cursed inwardly all the way, unknowingly arriving at the edge of the Bitter Sea.
Besides the fishing rod, the stone slab at the edge of the Bitter Sea was empty. The sea surface was very calm, as still as a deep blue mirror.
Master is probably sleeping until late morning; the Carp Dragon is definitely hiding at the bottom of the sea sleeping too.
Xiaobai got off Erha's back and sat on the empty stone slab, holding the fishing rod in his hand.
He lifted the fishing line to look; the hook on the fishing rod was right-angled and had no barbs.
Tsk~
Xiaobai took a deep breath. No wonder Master is said to be fishing for loneliness every day.
Would any fish even bite?
That's right, should I try changing the hook on the fishing rod, and let Master truly experience the joy of fishing?
Instead of being immersed in the sadness of Qi training every day.
Xiaobai rolled his flexible big eyes, pondered for a while, and thought that, based on his Demon Emperor status and knowledge, the best fishing hook should be in the hands of the Fisherfolk tribe of Holy Continent.
Xiaobai had heard news about the Fisherfolk tribe from his father.
This was a tribe that spent all day fishing. They lived on a small island in the sea.
The island's location changed with the flow of the sea, so the fish in the sea were their source of sustenance.
Naturally, in order to catch more sea fish, the Fisherfolk tribe constantly improved their fishing skills and fishing weapons.
If he could get one of their fishing rods, Master's fishing experience would probably be much better.
Having made up his mind, Xiaobai put down the fishing rod. Erha, at some point, had chased after another butterfly nearby.
The butterfly hovered over its head for a while, then hovered over its tail for a while, causing Erha to pat its head with its paws and then bite its tail.
"You're really stupid, Ergouzi," Xiaobai scolded irritably.
Just as he was about to leave, Ye Kong's voice came from his ear, "Xiaobai, in one incense stick's time, call your senior sisters, senior brothers, and junior sisters to a meeting."
"Ah?"
"Oh!"
Xiaobai rode Erha quickly towards Peach Mountain, knocking on each door, "Get up, Master wants us to have a meeting!"
Xiaoshan ran out excitedly, saying in a childish voice, "Senior Brother Xiaobai, take me with you!"
Xiaoshan looked only three or four years old, his whole body chubby like a small ball, waddling as he walked.
"Okay, come on up," Xiaobai reached out, pulled Xiaoshan up, and held him in front of him.
"Woof ~" Erha barked softly. Neither of these two are people I can afford to offend.
"Ergouzi, run steadily, don't let Xiaoshan fall," Xiaobai shouted.
"Woof ~"
Erha carried the two chubby little kids towards the edge of the Bitter Sea.
"Senior Brother Xiaobai, why is Master calling us to a meeting?" Xiaoshan couldn't help but ask on the way.
"According to Master's temper, he usually lets Eldest Senior Sister deal with small matters. This time it might be a good thing," Xiaobai said cheerfully.
He was very confident in his judgment. After all, he was a Demon Emperor; this little ability to observe people's expressions was simply effortless.
Soon, the disciples arrived at the edge of the Bitter Sea. Everyone still lined up under the willow tree, waiting for Ye Kong to come over for the meeting.
However, Ye Kong kept sitting at the edge of the Bitter Sea, holding the fishing rod in his hand, his body looking very relaxed, with no impulse to get up and say anything.
Everyone turned their eyes to Xiaobai, and a blush instantly crept onto Xiaobai's face.
"Don't… don't look at me," Xiaobai pointed at Ye Kong, "It's Master's… Master's orders."
Only then did everyone look away, but Lin Yaoyao still wouldn't let it go, "Xiaobai, go ask."
She looked at Ye Kong and winked at Xiaobai.
"This…"
"Go quickly!"
"Oh…"
Just as Xiaobai was hesitating, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Xiaoshan, you go, you're the youngest, Master dotes on you the most!"
Xiaoshan said "Ah" and looked up, eleven senior brothers and senior sisters were staring at him with scorching gazes.
"Okay…"
