Novel Full Chapter 550 - TO RIDE THE WIND
SHEN JI YUN plan to subdue that black dragon to force him to agree to be his pet should probably be put on hold. But how the heck should he get along with that dragon? The other's character setting was like an immature kid who thought that he was the best in everything. And if there's one thing he wasn't really good at, then that's dealing with kids. Especially those bear ones.
Take Bai Ye for example. He had known the kid since the other was still in the womb of Aunt Xiulan. He practically saw him grew up from a baby to the bear kid he was now. But even then, the kid still hadn't warmed up to him.
Wait- maybe he could ask someone from the programming department to change the dragon's character setting. That would definitely be the easiest. But after he thought of the idea, he also quickly discarded it. No, why would he use his authority for that kind of thing? If it was for Luo Yan, sure, he wouldn't hesitate to do it. But it's not. So, there's really no reason for him to do so.
While he was contemplating on that problem, they finally arrived at where the little fox and the dragon were.
[Mashter!] – Eclipse called upon seeing Luo Yan and quickly jumped into his arms. [Why did you leave Eclipse under the mercy of uncle black dragon? What would you do if he removed all of Eclipse's beautiful fur?]
Dusk snorted in a timely manner. "You're such a drama queen."
The little fox' puffed, his cheeks bulging like a squirrel. Then he glared at the dragon. [Eclipse is a boy! So, it should be drama king. Uncle black lizard is so stupid! Why can't you even see that?]
The corner of Luo Yan's lips twitched when he heard what Eclipse said. Was that really the point? Shouldn't you be angry that he called you overdramatic instead? He shook his head.
"Okay, don't fight, you two," he said before this started to another round of bickering.
Eclipse raised his fluffy head. He looked at the shiny earring on the Luo Yan's right ear. Then he happened to glance at Shen Ji Yun who just stood beside Luo Yan. He also saw the same earring on the other's left ear. Eclipse's sapphire blue eyes suddenly brightened.
[Mashter! Mashter! Did you and Captain exchanged promise earrings that's why you have to throw Eclipse to uncle black lizard? So, that the two of you could have a special moment together?]
Luo Yan raised one of his brows. What was this fox going on about again? [What promise earrings? Your master has only heard of promise rings.]
[Isn't it just the same thing?] – Eclipse said, tilting his head. [You give one another some kind of accessory and then you promise to be loyal and committed to one another.] Then the little fox started acting all aggrieved. [Mashter and Captain's relationship have already reached this point and yet Mashter still hasn't said anything to Eclipse. If the two of you get married, won't you even invite Eclipse?]
For the nth time, Luo Yan was glad that Shen Ji Yun couldn't hear this little guy's thoughts. He flicked Eclipse's forehead. [If you don't stop saying nonsense, I'm really going to let Dusk take care of you.]
Eclipse expression became more aggrieved. [Mashter doesn't love Eclipse anymore.] The little fox then jumped to Shen Ji Yun's arms. [Eclipse will just be with Captain frow now on.]
[Then, your master will just exchange you for Dusk.] – Luo Yan simply said.
Eclipse's face became panicked before jumping back to Luo Yan's arms. [No, Mashter! You're not allowed to replace Eclipse! Eclipse should be Mashter's one and only pet!]
Luo Yan chuckled and hugged the little fox. [Master is only joking. It's because Eclipse suddenly said that he chose the captain over me.]
Eclipse shook his head. [Eclipse was also only joking.] Eclipse glanced at Shen Ji Yun. [Sorry, Captain. Eclipse still loves Mashter best.]
Shen Ji Yun who received such a look only had a question mark on his face. This little guy suddenly jumped into his arms earlier and then quickly jumped back again to Luo Yan's. Now, he was looking at Shen Ji Yun as if he had done something he was sorry for.
Seeing the other's confused look, Luo Yan smiled apologetically. "Sorry, Eclipse was just being a bear child. Don't mind him."
Shen Ji Yun nodded. Speaking of bear child, he glanced at the miniature version of the dragon. The other was looking at Eclipse with a disgusted expression. As if he couldn't believe that such a stupid being actually existed.
He sighed. If he had to convince this dragon to let him be their mode of transportation, he might as well do it now.
"We're going to the site of the demon fox tribe next," he started. "But we'll be needing a mode of transportation," he finished not forgetting to look straight at the dragon.
The dragon obviously received Shen Ji Yun's sight. As if he understood what the other's look meant, he quickly flared up. "Are you telling this king to act like your personal horse?!"
"Yes," Shen Ji Yun honestly answered. "But calling it 'personal' was a bit much. After all, you have to bring all of us there. I think 'public' should be more appropriate."
Luo Yan almost smacked his head when he heard what Shen Ji Yun said. Was this actually his way of 'persuading' Dusk? If he was the dragon, he would be spitting fire now.
As expected, smoke came out of the dragon's nostrils, as if he would really blow fire at them at any second. He sighed and was already planning to intercede when Shen Ji Yun spoke again.
"But if the great king doesn't want to, then I could only do the job myself. Travelling over mountains and rivers is nothing for a qilin like me." Shen Ji Yun then looked condescendingly at the dragon. "It could prove once again that qilins are better than dragons."
The dragon flew in a rage in front of Shen Ji Yun. "Do you think such a small thing can't be done by this king? Hah! Fine! This king will let you see what it means for one to ride the wind."
