"Chirp~"
Less than ten seconds after leaving, Little Phoenix appeared at the gate again.
A fireball opened the gate, and Little Phoenix swooped low and flew through.
In its claws, a limp little dragon half a meter long played dead with despair written all over his face...
Splash!
The little dragon playing dead was tossed into the pool. Little Phoenix stood proudly beside it, raising its little head and flapping its wings at Ye Fei.
It had only shrunk after returning to the gate, but this idiot hadn't even known how to shrink, so it had struck him with lightning a few times.
Then, under that lightning-based instruction, the idiot dragon who claimed he couldn't grow or shrink had learned how...
"You're so mean! Fire Dance, don't go too far! I'm telling you, if you bully me, I'll go make trouble for Ye Fei. Just you wait!"
Long Heng turned back into his Little Dragon Person form in the pool, ran out of the water, and waved his little fist at the still-smug Fire Dance before running straight to Ye Fei with an aggrieved expression.
He couldn't win a fight, but he knew how to make that Phoenix angry without letting it do anything about it!
"Woof?"
Big Dog had been playing with Lin Xian, but when it looked up and saw Little Dragon Person throw himself into its human's arms, it instantly abandoned Lin Xian. It ran over and flopped down beside Ye Fei, resting its big head on his leg and wheedling for strokes and head rubs...
"Nephew, let me tell you, a kid needs to learn to throw himself straight into someone's arms once he's close enough. Don't hug his arm, hug his neck and let him hold you... yes, just like that. Listen to your uncle.
