33 -33 Becoming a Divine Pact Maker_1
“Drudgeon?
The Sage Beast?
Do you know where it is, Granny?”
Feng Yuan looked at Granny Mianlan with some curiosity, and Granny Mianlan replied with a smile,
“Granny doesn’t know where it is, but Granny has a way to contact it.
Why, are you interested in trying?”
“I’ll pass.
Contacting a Divine Beast is generally a one-off thing, right?
I wouldn’t want to waste such a rare opportunity just to satisfy my curiosity.”
“Actually, it wouldn’t hurt to let you try.
As of now, Granny hasn’t found anyone who quite meets Drudgeon’s requirements.”
“No thanks, I don’t intend to become a Divine Pact Maker.”
After Feng Yuan decisively refused, he reached out to rub Xiao Ji’s head and poured himself another cup of tea.
Granny Mianlan looked at him with a touch of regret, when Cen Chudie walked over, tossing a paper packet next to Feng Yuan, saying,
“Here, this is in thanks for helping the little lizard.”
“What is this?”
Feng Yuan picked up the paper packet with some confusion, shaking it.
The Dreaming Dragon Baby floated curiously over to the packet, sniffed it, and stared at it with glowing eyes,
“Ooh~”
Feng Yuan shook the paper packet in his hand and noticed that the Dreaming Dragon Baby’s gaze was tightly focused on the packet.
He asked in a bit of surprise,
“What’s inside that’s so tempting to the Dreaming Dragon Baby?”
“Leaves of Cotton Orchid Grass and petals of Cotton Orchid Flower.
Don’t you love Cotton Orchid Grass tea?
These are what I’ve saved for you.”
“Thank you~”
Feng Yuan excitedly placed the paper packet on the table, pushed the Dreaming Dragon Baby aside, and pointed to its teacup, saying,
“That’s for you.
Don’t eye my things.”
“Ooh!”
The Dreaming Dragon Baby looked at Feng Yuan a bit angrily and floated back to its teacup, nibbling at the tea snacks and savoring the flower tea.
“Guna~”
Everyone looked in surprise as Nagna floated in from outside.
Feng Yuan picked up a teacup, filled it with tea, and handed it to the approaching Nagna, saying,
“Care for some tea?”
“Guna~”
Seeing Nagna taking the teacup from Feng Yuan with a look of satisfaction, Cen Chudie exclaimed in surprise,
“I thought it had left!”
“When did you secretly make a pact with it?”
“Nonsense!
I didn’t make a pact with Nagna!”
“Guna~”
“Ji?”
As Nagna floated to Xiao Ji with the teacup, curiously examining it, Granny Mianlan hesitated before asking,
“This is the Life Divine Beast Nagna, isn’t it?”
“Yes, it’s the one that defeated the Netherworld Demon Bird.”
“It seems to like Xiao Ji.
Don’t you want to consider making a pact with it?”
Hearing Granny Mianlan’s suggestion, Feng Yuan waved his hand and declined,
“I’d rather not try.
I don’t have any particular desire for Divine Beasts.”
“Is it because of Xiao Ji?”
“Ji?”
Xiao Ji, puzzled, turned to look at Granny Mianlan.
Nagna, holding the cup, floated over Xiao Ji’s head, resting its hands on the top of Xiao Ji’s head, curiously gazing at Granny Mianlan.
Granny Mianlan weighed her words for a moment and then said,
“I know you are worried that making a pact with other Spirit Beasts might upset Xiao Ji, but you can’t possibly stick with just one Spirit Beast, can you?”
As Granny Mianlan spoke, she looked at Xiao Ji, whose tuft of hair was pressed down by Nagna, and added,
“You should also consider his safety.
He’s constantly facing threats from the G Organization.
If you could become a Divine Pact Maker, his safety would be secured.
You can’t be that selfish.”
“Ji…”
“Is Xiao Ji feeling a bit stuffy?
Let’s go out and get some fresh air~”
Feng Yuan said while picking up the disheartened Xiao Ji.
He quickly turned and left.
Nagna, looking puzzled, glanced at Feng Yuan’s retreating figure and then at Granny Mianlan, who looked somewhat disappointed, drank the tea in its cup in haste, and floated in the direction Feng Yuan had gone.
“Ooh?”
The Dreaming Dragon Baby lifted its head, scanned the surroundings with some confusion, shook its head, and then continued to nibble on its tea snacks,
“Don’t worry about it, Xiao Ji.
Even if it’s just you, it’s fine~”
“Ji…
Ji!”
Clutching the struggling Xiao Ji in his arms, Feng Yuan sighed and said,
“Aren’t you a Divine Beast too?
Even though only in the future…”
“Ji!”
“Nagna?”
Seeing Nagna put one hand on her mouth and look at him with some confusion, Xiao Ji struggled to jump out of Feng Yuan’s arms and started gesturing and chirping as if trying to communicate something to Nagna.
“Nagna?”
Nagna tilted her head to look at Xiao Ji and seemed to understand something; she then turned to look at Feng Yuan.
Seeing Nagna stretch out her little hand with a golden contract rune floating above it, Feng Yuan said with a chuckle,
“Thank you, but I really don’t need to sign a contract with you.”
“Nagna~”
Nagna glanced at Feng Yuan and then back at Xiao Ji, who was gazing at her hopefully.
She resolutely stretched out her little hand toward Feng Yuan.
Feng Yuan, feeling helpless, touched the golden contract rune.
As soon as his hand made contact with the rune, it disintegrated and faded away.
Feng Yuan, looking as if he had anticipated this, said,
“Just as I thought, Divine Beast contracts don’t work on me.”
“Nagna!”
“Ji!”
Astonished, Nagna looked at Feng Yuan as her little hand once again conjured a golden contract rune, pressed it on the back of Feng Yuan’s hand, and, just like before, the rune disintegrated upon contact.
“Ji!”
Seeing Xiao Ji looking anxious, Feng Yuan picked him up and gently patted his back,
“Don’t worry~ it’s okay~ The G Organization poses no threat to me~”
“Ji!”
“Nagna~”
Nagna floated over to Xiao Ji and stretched out her little hand.
A multicolored orb emerged from Nagna’s palm.
“Eh?
Is this new hair?”
Seeing the orb settle on Xiao Ji’s head and dissolve, leaving behind a new tuft of hair, Feng Yuan curiously freed one hand to fiddle with it.
“Ji!”
“Alright, alright, I won’t touch your tuft anymore.”
Seeing Xiao Ji a bit annoyed, Feng Yuan chuckled and, watching Xiao Ji converse with Nagna, paused to say,
“Okay, let’s go back.
Xiao Ji, you haven’t finished your snacks yet, right?”
Seeing Xiao Ji busy talking with Nagna and ignoring him, Feng Yuan shook his head, carried Xiao Ji back to the dining room, and upon his return, the Dreaming Dragon Baby, who had just finished her snacks and was feeling sleepy, yawned and floated up to Feng Yuan’s shoulder to curl up and go to sleep.
Feng Yuan placed Xiao Ji on the table and noticed he was still talking with Nagna.
Feng Yuan shook his head again and picked up his snack to enjoy slowly.
“Dinner’s ready, everyone come and eat~”
Feng Yuan, along with Xiao Ji and Nagna, had been playing with the Cotton Orchid Babies in the pastures of Cotton Orchid Manor when Xia Zihuai called out loudly from the pasture entrance.
Feng Yuan clapped his hands, put down the Cotton Orchid Babies, picked up Xiao Ji, and headed toward the dining room, as the Cotton Orchid Babies rapidly floated away in the opposite direction of Feng Yuan.
“Eh?
How come you’re here too?”
“Waiting to take you home after you’ve eaten.”
Captain Chen glanced at Feng Yuan, who was quietly eating his meal, and Feng Yuan placed Xiao Ji on the table, looking at the food Xia Zihuai brought over, and happily exclaimed,
“It’s so rich~”
“This is everyone’s reward for working hard all afternoon~”
“Here, Xiao Ji, this is for you.”
“Ji~”
The Dreaming Dragon Baby, awakened by the fragrance, stared longingly at Xia Zihuai, who said with a smile,
“Don’t rush; yours is here too.”
“Nagna~”
“Eh?
Do you want to eat too, Nagna?
I didn’t prepare your share; do you need it made now, will you wait?”
Seeing Nagna suddenly appear, Xia Zihuai said apologetically.
Nagna nodded and floated beside Xiao Ji, pointing at the plate in front of him.
“Nagna~”
“Do you want the same food as Xiao Ji?”
“Nagna~”
“Okay, just wait a moment.”
“Nagna~”
Captain Chen tried to force himself not to look at Nagna but couldn’t help but lift his head after a few bites to closely observe Nagna, who was sitting next to Xiao Ji.
“Are you a Divine Pact Maker now?”
Captain Chen asked Feng Yuan in surprise.
Feng Yuan grinned and said,
“No.”
