Chapter 1202: Who Schemed Against Who?

Translator: RITF_Rain Editor: Chrissy

Since Erhuo hatched, it had been curious and raring for the Heavenly Crystal Marrow. However, Ye Xiao noticed it, so he forbade it immediately. He had to. That piece of Heavenly Crystal Marrow was all he had. If Erhuo could eat as much as it wanted, it would take only a few days to eat it up. Ye Xiao was still scared about Erhuo’s appetite...

That was why he had sealed the Heavenly Crystal Marrow up in the particular space.

Erhuo kept hanging around the space but had no idea how to get into it.

This time, it had done a great job indeed, and it was genuinely exhausted, so Ye Xiao decided to let it eat some.

When Ye Xiao just unlocked the seal on that space, Erhuo couldn’t wait to rush out and held the entire Heavenly Crystal Marrow in its arms.

Well, it was such a small cat. The Heavenly Crystal Marrow was of the same size as a human head. It seemed Erhuo didn’t hold the Heavenly Crystal Marrow; instead, it threw itself on it!

Erhuo half closed its eyes, curled its tail and put it under its butts, huddled like a cushion and put its head on the Heavenly Crystal Marrow. It just didn’t move anymore.

The bubbling sound was sounding in its throat. That seemed really comfortable.

There was a considerable amount of spiritual qi inside Heavenly Crystal Marrow. When Erhuo held it, the spiritual qi seemed to have a way to be unleashed. It started to rush out crazily. Erhuo kept making the bubbling sound in the throat and swallowing the spiritual qi like a whale swallowing the water in the ocean. It moved its eyes from time to time, to checked Ye Xiao’s reaction... It just kept swallowing the spiritual qi...

Ye Xiao smiled. It seemed the Heavenly Crystal Marrow was an excellent attraction for Erhuo. It was reasonable though. Even Meng Huaiqing, a supreme master level cultivator, was shocked when she saw that small piece of Heavenly Crystal Marrow. Maybe the Heavenly Crystal Marrow was way more valuable than he knew!

Since Erhuo got on the Heavenly Crystal Marrow, it seemed refreshed. It didn’t feel tired at all. Instead, it started to breathe steadily...

Ye Xiao squinted at Erhuo and came up with a guess. [It wasn’t lying to me, was it? Was that its scheme? Did it pretend to look exhausted because it wanted me to give it Heavenly Crystal Marrow?]

[No way! It can’t be that smart! Can it?]

He thought that he had finally seized the higher position beyond Erhuo, but then he felt upset about it when he figured out he hadn’t. He left the Boundless Space, and when he was leaving, he didn’t realize the wicked smile on Erhuo’s face... It even waved its tail quietly...

Erhuo just kept swallowing the spiritual qi!

It even sneakily bit a small piece of the Heavenly Crystal Marrow and swallowed it. Actually, that nearly choked it to death...

That was such an opportunity for it, so it decided to take as much as it could.

As expected, Ye Xiao returned after checking on Han Bingxue for a while. Apparently, he didn’t trust Erhuo. When he reentered the Space, he happened to see Erhuo biting a small piece off the Heavenly Crystal Marrow...

“You idiot!” Ye Xiao raged up and rushed over. He was going to kick it up a hard one.

“Meow!”

Erhuo waved its tail and jumped off the Heavenly Crystal Marrow, and then felt away for life.

[It was worth it!]

[This is worth it!]

[I would give anything else up for the small piece of it!]

[Even he kicks me out a hundred times, I would still do it... Meow meow...]

In fact, Erhuo was in a hurry running away, so it didn’t notice that there was a wicked smile on Ye Xiao’s face too... [Ha! No matter how smart you are, you are just a cat. Don’t even think that you can outwit your master!]

[That small piece... I was going to give it to you... Otherwise, I wouldn’t let you enter this space. Nor would I leave you here alone for a while...]

[Humph...]

A man and a cat, both were happy about what had happened. Each of them felt that they had taken big advantage of the other... The cat was complacent... The man was gloating...

Who was the worse? Nobody could tell!

“I am telling you! Get those fruits done soon!” Ye Xiao shouted with a dark face, “After eating so many good stuff... I am annoyed... It pissed me off...”

Erhuo was waving its tail and looked gloating. [Fine. I will get on it soon. I have gotten what I want already anyway... Besides, after the fruits are done, I will get my treat from them. Helping you means helping myself... I am not stupid...]

That was how Erhuo started to work on the fruits. It didn’t even see the wicked and gloating eyes of Ye Xiao...

That afternoon, Han Bingxue finally woke up. He didn’t look well. His face was pale like a blank paper. However, he looked weak, but he still knew how to talk toughly, “Can’t you just get me some tasty foods from down there? I am a patient, am I not? Come on... I gave up my own life for you... I never regret what I have done for you... How could you treat me this way? It hurts...”

If Han Bingxue weren’t suffering fatal injuries, Ye Xiao would have smacked him down to the clouds right away.

[You have such a terrible mouth! Listen to yourself! How dare you talk to me like that? Who do you think you are? How dare you?]

“Are you blind? Just give me some water, will you? I am thirsty... Don’t you understand that a patient needs water?” Han Bingxue looked pretty powerless but still shouted like he was some important figure.

However, Ye Xiao submitted. He hurriedly took out water and fed him bit by bit. He did it so carefully as if he was taking care of a child! Han Bingxue was enjoying it so much!

[Holy hell... I have been following Boss for all these years... Never... I have never been treated like this ever... It is worth my sacrifice back there!]

It might be a harmonious scene if that was all that had happened. Human’s greed never stopped growing!

“Give me some food. Do you want me to starve?”

“Oh, my waist is sore. It must have been hurt when I fought that guy. What are you looking at? Just come and knead it for me...”

“What is this? It tastes sour like hell! I want sweet ones! I want to eat something sweet...”

...

After Han Bingxue made the same immoderate requests several times, Ye Xiao finally couldn’t stand it. He was thinking maybe he should let Han Bingxue enjoy the moment, but he couldn’t do it now. He waved one hand and pushed eight dan beads into Han Bingxue’s mouth at the same time. Han Bingxue kept moving his head aside not to eat the dan beads, but Ye Xiao had forcibly pushed them into his mouth.

“You want this, you want that... Are you addicted? Come on, make your next order, you prick! Why don’t you keep talking like that?” Ye Xiao was furious. He grabbed Han Bingxue’s hairs and pushed him to the edge, “You want to eat something sweet, don’t you? You just can’t be more like a bastard, can you? You are a man, and you acted like a woman... Wu Fa didn’t kill you. That is a shame. I think maybe I should do it...”
