Spirit Hall's Golden Generation Invites Him to Dinner!

"What's going on... Why isn't this Spirit Beast attacking us?"

"And it doesn't seem hostile toward us at all..."

The three of them were confused.

Meanwhile, held in Hu Liena's arms, Shi Hao caught a whiff of a fragrant scent. It smelled so nice... And what had just happened?

Was this big sister protecting him?

Shi Hao was not stupid. He knew that although the Demonic Pattern White Tiger did not seem like much to him, it might be extremely dangerous in other people's eyes. So Hu Liena's instinctive attempt to save him... had truly caught Shi Hao by surprise.

"Big sister... too tight!"

Shi Hao spoke in a dazed, innocent voice. Hu Liena's face immediately reddened, and she finally put him down, though she still instinctively shielded him behind her.

"Be careful... This Spirit Beast is very dangerous."

"You mean my Big Cat?..." Shi Hao scratched his head and gave an innocent grin.

"Don't worry, it's very well-behaved... As long as no one provokes it, it definitely won't provoke anyone."

"Right, Big Cat!"

"Meow~"

The Demonic Pattern White Tiger let out an obedient cry. Before this little master, it did not dare act recklessly at all. Otherwise, it really might get beaten up.

Shi Hao turned around and began scolding the Demonic Pattern White Tiger.

"Big Tiger, why haven't you brought me any beast milk yet? Were you slacking off?"

"You were playing here with them too, and you didn't even bring me along. Hmph."

"And Father said you're a Spirit Beast. You can't play with humans."

"Why didn't you know how to protect yourself? You even got yourself into such a state."

The Demonic Pattern White Tiger stepped forward and let out several aggrieved cries.

"Awoo~ Awoo~; meow... meow."

It seemed to be telling Shi Hao that the three of them had wanted to kill it, which was why it had not been able to find the beast milk and food its little ancestor loved. That was why it had attacked. It had not started the fight.

Seeing this, the three exchanged glances... their eyes filled with shock.

What was going on? This child was saying that this powerful Spirit Beast, whose cultivation was at least over thirty thousand years, was his pet.

Was that true? Could such a powerful Spirit Beast actually submit to a human?

Hu Liena and the other two looked at the Demonic Pattern White Tiger lying on the ground, docile as a cat, and all felt that it was absurd... After all, its ferocious appearance from just seconds ago was still vivid in their minds.

"Meow~"

The Demonic Pattern White Tiger came to Shi Hao's side and briefly explained what had happened. After Shi Hao listened... his brows furrowed slightly again.

Was this another Spirit Beast they had chosen earlier? This... Why did this situation feel so familiar?

Hadn't that group of people from before said the exact same thing...? Shi Hao's little face immediately stiffened, and he felt somewhat unhappy.

He looked gloomily at Hu Liena and the other two. If these people were going to be just as unreasonable, then he would really get angry.

When he got angry... even he was scared of himself!

"This Spirit Beast... was defeated by my Big Cat. The prey belongs to us."

Shi Hao stared at Hu Liena and the other two with a stern little face.

"Do you... have any objections?"

If these people wanted to fight him too, then he would truly have to make a move.

"Of course... It's yours, so naturally it's yours. We won't fight you for it. After all, you were the ones who defeated it."

"And if you hadn't come, we really would have been in danger this time."

Hu Liena and the other two truly did not try to snatch it from Shi Hao. As Spirit Hall's Golden Generation, they had their own pride.

The only reason they had attacked the Demonic Pattern White Tiger earlier was because it was a Spirit Beast. Now that it actually had an owner, that was naturally a completely different matter.

"Huh? You really don't want it..." Shi Hao scratched his head.

"We don't."

"Alright, then."

Shi Hao felt that these people seemed more reasonable than the previous group, and he instantly developed a somewhat better impression of them.

However, after being somewhat traumatized by strangers, he still did not plan to stay any longer. He prepared to leave immediately.

As he spoke, Shi Hao was about to climb onto the Demonic Pattern White Tiger's back and depart.

The three were startled. This child was not afraid of such a huge tiger at all.

Just as he was about to leave, a voice called out from behind him. "You're just leaving like that? We injured your Spirit Beast because we didn't know it was yours... And you saved our lives. You haven't even given us a chance to apologize."

"That's right, we haven't apologized yet... Kid, why don't you stay for a while?"

Hu Liena stopped Shi Hao, while Xie Yue and Yan immediately followed suit.

As Spirit Hall's Golden Generation, they were rarely interested in anything, but Shi Hao was such a small child and yet could command such a powerful Ten Thousand Year Spirit Beast.

They were extremely curious and wanted to make friends with him.

"I'd better not..."

Shi Hao had just wanted to refuse when Hu Liena spoke directly.

"We were just about to eat. Why don't you stay and have some with us... It's really delicious."

"I..."

Gurgle.

Shi Hao's stomach growled at the worst possible moment. His face immediately turned red. That had been careless... He had not eaten anything all day, so he really was hungry.

"Pfft... What an adorable child!"

Hu Liena burst into laughter. She had keen powers of observation and had heard the tiger's stomach growl several times during the fight. And this little child had started by asking for beast milk, so he was probably hungry too.

When Shi Hao heard the words "delicious food," Golden Light practically flashed in his eyes.

"Big sister, is that true? Do you really have delicious food?"

"Why would we lie?" Yan shook his Soul Tool and poured out a pile of food that looked quite good, all of it things Shi Hao had never seen before.

He added, "Don't worry, we don't lie to children."

Hu Liena could not help rolling her eyes at Yan when she heard that. Wasn't that obvious? Saying it out loud made it sound like they really were trying to deceive a child.

Shi Hao thought that since there was delicious food, he might as well eat before leaving.

Looking at the large tiger beneath him, he patted its head. "Big Tiger, you should stay and eat some too."

The Demonic Pattern White Tiger naturally had no objections. There were some ingredients it had never eaten before either. It seemed these people had extraordinary identities.

Then they all sat down together. Yan was not stingy at all and directly brought out a pile of precious ingredients. Some could be eaten right away, such as the rations they had specifically brought before setting out.

Others needed to be cooked or roasted on the spot, but since Yan was a fire-type Spirit Master, cooking was one of the things he excelled at... so the food was prepared quickly.

Before long, the grass was covered in plates, and enticing aromas began to drift through the air.

Shi Hao's appetite was thoroughly stirred by the sight. He was practically drooling, but he still restrained himself and did not start eating.

Hu Liena instantly grew curious when she saw Shi Hao wanting to eat but not daring to.

"Eat... Why aren't you eating? Is it not to your taste?"

"No, no, no... I really like the food you made, but Father taught me that when someone invites you to eat, you should let them eat first. That's called being polite."

Shi Hao spoke with complete seriousness, making Hu Liena find it incredibly amusing.

"You child... How can you be so adorable?"

She rubbed Shi Hao's head, her eyes full of tenderness.

"Then let's all dig in!!"

"Okay!"
