The video call was connected.
Within the 29-inch spiritual energy screen, because of the angle, Fan Li first saw Xiang Ning's nostrils.
"Ah!"
As expected, women naturally loved beauty. Xiang Ning was the first to notice the angle problem. She covered her nose and quickly retreated, before swiftly adjusting the angle herself.
The angle changed from bottom up to top down. The character was centered. The framing was perfect.
Fan Li yawned as he waited for Xiang Ning to sit back down before asking, "Does Your Majesty summon me?"
"I do!" Xiang Ning anxiously said, "I have important intelligence. It was just told to me by Master Qing Qiu!"
"Oh?" Fan Li also became more spirited. He sat up straight with a listening look on his face.
Xiang Ning sternly said, "Heaven has sent down three divine beasts. They have respectively fallen in Great Chu, Great Ming and Great Han territories."
"Uh..." Fan Li's expression froze as he lowered his head to look at the sleeping little white cat in his embrace, then raised his head again to look at Xiang Ning.
"You don't believe me?!" Xiang Ning hurriedly asked, "How can Master Qing Qiu's words be false? She is the Sage Ruler of Pure Land!"
"It's not that I don't believe." Fan Li scratched his nose. "Your subject already knew about this beforehand. Has Your Majesty forgotten our nation has the Heavenly Observatory capable of nightly celestial observations?"
Xiang Ning blanked out for a few seconds. Her beautiful face swiftly turned red. "I... I still have intelligence you don't know about! The Ming and Han emperors have both already subjugated their nation's divine beasts. Blessed by Heaven's Way, the two emperors' fortunes are rising and their cultivation speed has increased.
If Xiang Chong also captures Great Chu's guardian beast, I'd like to see how you can still turn the situation around then! Hmph!"
Xiang Ning spoke extremely quickly. Only after finishing did she have that proud and complacent look as she glared at Fan Li.
It was just that her almond eyes were moist and bewitching. She simply lacked any actual killing intent and instead seemed rather charming.
"Xiang Chong? He won't get the chance." Fan Li shook his head.
He also wasn't beating around the bush. Reaching into his embrace, he directly lifted up the sleepy little white cat.
"Huh? Fan Li, when did you start raising a cat? I can't believe I didn't know! What an adorable kitten. Be careful not to drop it."
Fan Li was speechless. Women really had no resistance against cute things. Just a moment ago she had anxiously warned him. Now she only remembered the cute cat?
"Your Majesty, it is the descended divine beast I just subjugated." Fan Li truthfully said.
"Oh, so it was it! Really cute, I also wants to touch it... Hey! Hey hey!" Within the video feed, Xiang Ning suddenly let out a shriek. Then she froze stiff.
Great Chu's ancestors!
Overlord Xiang Yu!
This unfilial descendant Xiang Ning actually lost the guardian nation's divine beast descended from heaven?
I’m guilty. I deserves death. After death, I am unworthy of enshrinement in the imperial ancestral temple!
"Fan Li! Why must you always snatch things from me?" Xiang Ning spoke in a tearful voice, "Are you really planning to revolt and become emperor?"
"No I'm not." Fan Li innocently said, "This little beast delivered itself to my door. I only casually subjugated it."
"Don't call it a little beast! Doesn't it have a name?" Xiang Ning became even more angry.
Fan Li very obediently shook his head, "It doesn't. Should your subject give it a name?"
"No! At least let me be the one to name it!"
Finally, after an outburst, Xiang Ning barely managed to win the naming rights to the divine beast.
Fan Li thought to himself: the other two divine beasts were called Great Ming Vermillion Bird and Xuanwu. Based on convention, this little guy should be called the White Tiger right?
If he could dye Wu Gang green, would that count as gathering the four auspicious beasts of Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird and Black Tortoise?
"Let's call it Tuan Tuan!" Xiang Ning's tender voice traveled through the Dust Destiny Necklace.
Fan Li was rendered speechless again. Knowledge changes destiny indeed. One must read more books.
To think the respectable White Tiger of the Four Auspicious Beasts actually had its name changed to Tuan Tuan...
"Mew?"
Tuan Tuan had been placed down onto the table by Fan Li. It finally lazily awoke from its slumber.
It looked at Fan Li, then looked at Xiang Ning. The cute and furry little face surprisingly revealed a perplexed expression.
Its manner seemed to say: Why are there two people with the destiny mark of the Son of Heaven? Could it be this beast found the wrong person?
"You are called Tuan Tuan." Fan Li pointed at Xiang Ning, "Her words."
"Meow?!" It had a huge reaction.
Repeatedly smacking the table with its front paws, seemingly protesting. As if refusing to accept this kind of name unable to reflect the might of a divine beast.
"Look, it really likes this name!" Xiang Ning delightfully said instead.
Fan Li internally rolled his eyes again. What did this woman just call him? Speaking her true thoughts the moment she was happy!
Furthermore, with which eye did she see the White Tiger divine beast actually liked this crappy name?
"Tre...coughs Uncle Fan, can you properly raise it? Don't let Tuan Tuan go hungry." Xiang Ning worriedly said.
"Your Majesty can rest assured. The Fan family's wealth rivals nations. Raising a single divine beast won't be an issue." Fan Li casually replied.
But he heard Xiang Ning gnashing her teeth, "That's right, the Fan family's wealth rivals entire nations!"
A woman's temper indeed changed faster than flipping pages. The more Xiang Ning thought about it, the angrier she got. She simply ended the call right there and then.
Fan Li blankly staring at the abruptly disconnected screen didn't even know how he offended her again.
"Master."
A cold and clear voice drifted in from outside Rivers and Mountains Pavilion, like the wind. The moment the voice faded, an elegant charming figure had arrived before Fan Li. It was Wu Gang.
"Have your injuries healed?" Fan Li asked.
"Yes."
Wu Gang had been heavily injured by the six sage rulers of Brahma Sound Pure Land specialized in zither, chess, literature, painting, sword and archery. But relying on the powerful physiques of dragons, and the constant supply of top-grade medicines from the Fan family's far-reaching business, she finally fully recovered in the shortest time possible.
"Dragging you into this and getting injured, I will personally exterminate Brahma Sound Pure Land in the future to avenge you." Fan Li said. His tone was indifferent, but it was a weighty promise.
Brahma Sound Pure Land was already in a life-and-death feud with Fan Li to begin with. Moreover, they actually dared to abduct Xiang Ning and injure Wu Gang?
"Thank you Master." Wu Gang nodded. She did not doubt the man's promise at all.
Fan Li only had a cultivation level at the 7th Stage of Qi Refining Realm. But so what?
He could mobilize all of Great Chu's resources! Furthermore, Great Han could also become Fan Li's reinforcements at any time!
Wu Gang had participated in the battle against the Blood Phoenix. She was clearer than anyone just how easily a single Great Vehicle Realm expert could be annihilated under Fan Li's hands.
"Right, this is for you."
Fan Li casually tossed an object over. Wu Gang carefully received it with both hands. Lowering her head for a closer look, this furry creature was clearly a young beast with powerful spirit energy radiating from its body.
"Master, I'm not hungry." Wu Gang truthfully answered.
Fan Li: "???"
What kind of vicious words were those?
How could cute little Tuan Tuan be associated with food by Wu Gang?
"This is a guardian divine beast descended from heaven. I'm letting you help me raise it, not for you to eat!"
"Meow....."
Tuan Tuan seemed to also realize something. It crouched in Wu Gang's palm, shuddering in fright.
So what if it was a divine beast descended from heaven?
It was still merely at the 1st Stage of Unity Realm. Facing Wu Gang at the Great Vehicle Realm, it was no different from an ant.
Wu Gang frowned, "Master. I'm already Great Chu's guardian deity personally recovered by you from the Black Dragon Pool..."
Her meaning was clear. Was she getting replaced?
In her entire life, Wu Gang hated two things the most: Abandonment and replacement.
When Xiang Yu had ascended, he abandoned her at Black Dragon Pool, leaving Wu Gang with endless resentment for a thousand years.
Now, was Fan Li also intending to replace her with this newly arrived divine beast?
