Xiao Hua knew the Empress was reproaching him. His face reddened slightly, and just as he was about to speak, Dai Er asked curiously again, "Empress, there is something this servant does not understand!"
The Empress shot Dai Er an irritated glare. "Speak!"
"What exactly is Little Sable?" Dai Er looked rather innocent. "Dai Er has been thinking about it all these years, but just now, Empress seemed to have discovered something. Dai Er could not hold back from asking!"
"Could you not ask later?" The Empress's tone carried a trace of majesty.
"This servant would not dare!" Dai Er's expression tightened, as though the little schemes in her heart had been seen through by the Empress. She lowered her head slightly.
"Hmph, you little girl! I brought you here to temper your emotions! Have you gained anything... Do not try to be clever!" the Empress warned blandly.
"Yes, this servant understands!" Dai Er hurriedly replied.
The Empress looked at Little Yellow and said, "I am still somewhat puzzled, but I can basically be certain that this Little Sable is absolutely not a Little Sable. As for what it is, I only have a guess for now. Perhaps... perhaps it is a Ting Beast!"
"Ti... Ting???" At the sound of those words, Dai Er shuddered and flung Little Yellow from her hands!
Fortunately, Xiao Hua was right beside her. He stretched out a hand and caught it. He seemed to have seen that name somewhere before, but for the moment, he could not recall it.
"Yes, Ting! The legendary strange beast with the divine might to drive away evil and ward off wickedness, discern right from wrong, and comprehend the secret mysteries of heaven and earth; one born to suck in ghost souls and devour essences raw... a strange beast!!"
