Chapter 564: First Encounter

And at this moment, as Yang Li's voice fell.

Quite a few little white cranes stopped what they were doing and raised their heads to look over.

Seeing these little ones all look over in unison.

Hu Li's heart gave a sudden lurch, and he instantly sensed something was wrong!

His body instinctively shrank, hiding behind Jiang Xiao.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Xiao's expression grew increasingly strange.

Two Spirit Beasts of the Sun Wheel realm, who would appear incomparably majestic and ferocious out in the outside world.

Yet now, placed within the Spirit Beast Hall, they had actually been reduced to such a wretched state by these little white cranes — it was truly somewhat hard to imagine, and a disgrace to the dignity of Sun Wheel realm Spirit Beasts!

As thoughts churned within him.

Seeing that quite a few little white cranes had begun to shift their target and walk toward his side.

Jiang Xiao shook his head. Without the slightest hesitation, he instantly released a wisp of faint dragon might!

Under the influence of this dragon might.

All the little white cranes were suppressed by bloodline pressure, their bodies involuntarily stiffening, and they suddenly toppled to the ground!

Hu Li and Yang Li also changed expression slightly, scared into a sudden, terrified start!

Then, Jiang Xiao slowly turned his head, looked at the trembling Yang Li, and said in a deep voice:

"Speak. What exactly happened here? What is going on with them?"

Yang Li came back to his senses and hurriedly explained:

"Lord Bai, shortly after you left back then, the master sent people to deliver them here to us, and ordered us to help raise them."

"It's just that the three of us brothers are used to living freely and unrestrained day to day, so let alone offspring — and I'm not afraid you'll laugh at me when I say this — we haven't even touched a single female Spirit Beast!"

"Not to mention that we usually do rough, violent work — how could we possibly handle this kind of delicate task of raising young Spirit Beasts?"

"You see, isn't this just making things difficult for us?"

Once the words fell.

Upon hearing it was the master's arrangement, a look of understanding flashed in Jiang Xiao's eyes, and he casually dispersed the dragon might!

He glanced around the scene a few times, looked at this chaotic sight, and could not help but knit his brow.

Then, under the especially dumbfounded gazes of Hu Li and Yang Li, Jiang Xiao's figure moved and he instantly vanished on the spot!

As he vanished, he also left behind a voice:

"Since it is the master's arrangement, you must take it seriously. You must not be the slightest bit careless."

"I suddenly recall I still have important matters to attend to. I'll leave this place to you. If anything urgent comes up, you can contact me using the Cangwu Token......"

Once the words fell.

Hu Li and Yang Li suddenly widened their eyes, their gazes filled with disbelief!

They had never, ever expected.

That the Lord Bai they had regarded as their savior would actually just slip away like this!!

The scene fell silent for a full dozen or so breaths.

Hu Li and Yang Li did not move at all — even their expressions did not change in the slightest, like two stone statues!

It was also unclear how long had passed.

Yang Li suddenly let out a sigh.

Feeling the group of little white cranes still hanging on his body.

He stiffly raised his head, looked toward his own equally dumbfounded big brother, and revealed a bitter smile: "Big brother, come over here."

Caring for these little things was such torment — how could he let a single sheep suffer here alone?

As the saying goes, share blessings and share hardships alike.

Better to let his own big brother come back and continue sharing the burden with him.

Hearing his third brother calling him.

Hu Li silently glanced around, his expression sorrowful, wanting to cry but having no tears!

"Sigh, Lord Bai, you've really made things hard for me......"

He let out a sigh.

He resolutely walked up in front of Yang Li and began coaxing these little white cranes.

Of all things under heaven, the master's command is the greatest!

Since they were required to look after these detestable little white cranes.

They naturally had no choice but to accept the duty, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

Now, they just had to endure a little longer......

At this moment, Hu Li was immensely looking forward to his master finding the second brother who had wandered off outside as soon as possible!

As long as Lu Li could join them.

The three brothers could face the difficulty together!

He and Yang Li would also be able to have it much easier.

And at this moment, Yang Li harbored the very same thought.

He gazed at the hall entrance, eyes filled with hope: "Second brother, hurry over here, I really can't take it anymore......"

Listening to the noisy chitter-chatter all around, his heart ached all the more unbearably!

However, just as one tiger and one sheep were sinking into misery.

On the other side.

Jiang Xiao's figure suddenly appeared beside the Spirit Spring.

He looked around, confirmed no one was there, then couldn't help stretching out his little short hand, patting his chest, and said with relief:

"Good thing I, White Lord, ran fast. Taking care of those little things — how could that compare to a nice soak?"

He was afraid that if he ran too slowly, he'd be left behind in the Spirit Beast Hall.

And then if the master found out, he'd be told to bring those two unlucky ones along to take care of these little things too.

Therefore, he simply chose to come to the Spirit Spring and hide, cultivating in secret and playing dead.

This way, even if the master suddenly remembered this matter, he wouldn't really make him go over again, right?

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaobai hurriedly jumped into the Spirit Spring, revealed his true form, and began to swim freely in the water!

Feeling the temperature of the water, and the spiritual energy so dense it was extreme.

He couldn't help but grin: "This is what life should be, truly delightful~~"

The words had only just fallen when he suddenly froze on the spot!

Only because a human figure had suddenly appeared before his eyes!

It was a youth with skin like fine jade, radiant and exceptionally handsome.

A pair of large, distinctly black-and-white eyes was currently staring back at him, big eyes meeting small eyes!

Wait, why would there be someone here?!!

Jiang Xiaobai's dragon eyes shrank, feeling extremely surprised!

He had never expected.

That in just one business trip's worth of time.

The result was not only the Spirit Beast Hall being occupied by those little things.
