"All right, all right, get up already."
Xiao Yi spoke helplessly, gently stopping the intimate antics of the girl in his arms.
It would have been one thing if she were still that fluffy golden Auspicious Beast from before, but now that she had taken the form of a human girl, if he let her keep clinging to him and acting spoiled like this, something inappropriate was bound to happen sooner or later.
And licking his face was not right.
Xiao Yi, in turn, held the Auspicious Beast and nuzzled her like a cat for a while, just as he had before. She was no longer fluffy, but she was still adorable—and smelled nice, too.
The Auspicious Beast did not resist in the slightest. Curled up in Xiao Yi's arms, she giggled sweetly, her eyes crinkling with pure joy.
After they had played around for a long while and thoroughly enjoyed themselves, she finally raised her head and asked curiously.
"Hehe, Xiao Yi, am I pretty? I transformed myself based on the Lord and the elder sisters. You like me a lot, don't you?"
"If you like me, take me to the human world. Di Tian absolutely refuses to let me go." The girl rubbed against Xiao Yi as she spoke in a spoiled tone.
"You're very pretty." Xiao Yi smiled, gently pinching the girl's soft cheek with his fingertips. His tone was tender. "But first, I need to see exactly what kind of spirit herb you accidentally ate. Also, you should give yourself a proper human name."
With that, he lightly scraped her petite nose.
Hearing this, the golden-haired girl immediately put away her smile and fell into serious thought. Her little face was exceptionally earnest, as though she were carefully considering a name that belonged to her alone.
