Huo Yuhao did not have to wait long. Soon, a snow-white figure cleaved through the waves. In an instant, it rapidly grew from a white speck and arrived before Huo Yuhao.
"Xiao Bai, long time no see."
Huo Yuhao smiled and waved, greeting Xiao Bai, who had rushed over from far away.
Xiao Bai flew straight out of the seawater, transformed into human form, and landed in front of Huo Yuhao with an indignant look on her face.
"Why did it have to be here? Don't think that just because you defeated Bear Lord, you can order me around whenever you want."
Xiao Bai shot Huo Yuhao a dissatisfied glance, her arms crossed over her chest. She was clearly a little chilled.
"You're a 300,000-year Beast, and you can still feel cold? Besides, didn't you say it yourself? As long as I provided your clan with stable logistical treatment, I could call on you as my driver whenever I went out to sea?"
Huo Yuhao chuckled softly.
"Th-That..."
Xiao Bai was instantly left speechless. She had indeed said that, but the Northwest Sea Area—especially the Ice Sea near the Far North Land—was terribly cold. It was not her territory either, and she truly did not like coming here.
Xiao Bai thought for a long while but could not figure out how to refute Huo Yuhao. She raised her head and widened her eyes. "Hmph, then let's say I did say that. Put your hand on your heart and tell me—did you deliberately pick a place like this because you thought I was silly and easy to fool?"
Seeing the pure innocence in Xiao Bai's gray-blue eyes, untouched by knowledge, Huo Yuhao could not bear to tell her the truth. He could only blink and change the subject.
"Of course not.
