Chapter 1037: Little Guardian

Alright, you can't disagree with this meaning!

Xiao Feng thought, since the Monster Emperor Xuan Die is so proactive, he might as well place Xiao Xuan Die in Azure Moon Grotto-Heaven, which just happens to have an open guardian position.

That way, if Azure Moon Grotto-Heaven is invaded, having Xiao Xuan Die as a connection means the Monster Emperor Xuan Die will surely intervene, equivalent to gaining a behind-the-scenes guardian of over level 2000—totally worth it!

As for whether Xiao Xuan Die will give the Three-Eyed Gold Pandas a sound thrashing…

Eh, anyway it's not him, Xiao Feng, who'll feel the pain, so it doesn't matter!

"Northeast direction, over 500,000 li." Xiao Feng pointed out the location of Azure Moon Grotto-Heaven.

The Monster Emperor closed his eyes, as if looking at a map.

3 seconds later, Xiao Feng felt a flash before his eyes, and found himself already near the entrance of Azure Moon Grotto-Heaven.

"Ga! Big bro, you're not dead? Huh? Who transmitted me? How did I end up here?"

Just as he returned, Xiao Feng heard Da Bai's voice.

That cowardly bird that fled the battlefield was also moved through space by the Monster Emperor with great force and brought back.

Da Bai first saw Xiao Feng, then noticed the Monster Emperor and the silk cocoon.

Upon seeing this terrifying monster race powerhouse, it let out a startled cry: "Ga! Greetings, Senior! Xiao He He pays respects to Senior! Please don't kill me!" It immediately curled its neck and hid its head under its belly.

Such cowardice—truly unmatched!

"Never mind it, Senior, it's just a stupid bird; let's go in." Xiao Feng felt speechless, feeling his status had been lowered by Da Bai.

He led the way into Azure Moon Grotto-Heaven, while the Monster Emperor floated the silk cocoon in which Xiao Xuan Die slept behind him.

Upon seeing that the Venerable Senior seemed easy to talk to, Da Bai quietly let out a sigh of relief.

Still, he remained wary, not daring to approach, hanging far behind.

Soon they arrived inside Azure Moon Grotto-Heaven.

The wild beasts were training when they suddenly felt a terrifyingly overpowering aura appear; each trembled and burst out from the vine houses.

"Chief, who… who is this?"

The Three-Eyed Gold Panda shrank its size to resemble an ordinary panda and came forward to greet.

The Primordial Tiger, Earth Mighty Badger, and other wild beasts also came; facing the aura of a Venerable, they didn't even dare to breathe.

Xiao Feng introduced: "This is the Sovereign of the Calamity Demon Clan, Senior Xuan Die, who has specially come to tour our Azure Moon Grotto-Heaven and, by the way, leave her daughter Xiao Xuan Die here to serve as a guardian."

As soon as his words fell, the wild beasts all prostrated on the ground, shouting: "Little beasts pay respects to the Monster Emperor!"

"May the Monster Emperor enjoy boundless longevity and eternal immortality!"

"The Monster Emperor is Invincible Under Heaven!"

Such cowardice, just like Da Bai!

"Rise."

Xuan Die slightly raised her hand and said to the wild beasts: "My child has been asleep for years, rarely awakening. She remains here to cultivate; you only need to treat her as nonexistent and must not spread word of this outside. Understood?"

"Understood!"

"Rest assured, Monster Emperor, if anyone dares to utter a word about your child outside, I'll bite off their head!"

"I swear to protect the Little Monster Emperor!"

The wild beasts each shouted loudly, their speed of expressing loyalty faster and more resolute than when they first faced Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng could almost foresee that these beast-type wild beasts would each become sycophants, daily lowering their heads and bowing like servants to a princess, earnestly performing before Xiao Xuan Die.

Whether they'll get beaten is unclear, but their lack of backbone is plain as day.

Xiao Feng felt speechless.

He opened the Secret Realm management interface and set Xiao Xuan Die as the third guardian of Azure Moon Grotto-Heaven.

With guardian status, she is immortal here; unless the Secret Realm Core is shattered, no one can kill her.

Of course, if she goes outside and gets killed, there's nothing to be done.

After setting the guardian, the Monster Emperor lifted the silk cocoon with one hand, rose into the air, flew to the largest vine house, and placed the cocoon inside.

Inside the round vine house now lay an additional round silk cocoon, with the little girl sleeping within, looking peaceful and tranquil, showing no trace of her previous violent aura.

Xiao Feng saw her placed in the large vine house and muttered: "Senior Monster Emperor, your daughter won't wake up with nothing to do and play with the Secret Realm Core? I don't want to be busy with important matters only to be summoned back by her meddling."

Just being summoned back would be fine enough; if this little girl idles about and tries to dismantle the Secret Realm Core, that would be troublesome!

Xuan Die replied upon hearing that: "Just add a layer of protection for you."

Saying so, she pointed with a single hand from afar; a strand of golden light shot out and landed on the Secret Realm Core.

The surface of the Secret Realm Core immediately gained a golden film of protection, sufficient to withstand attacks of god-king level.

With this protection, its effect is no less than that of the "Prestige Gold Seal"!

"Thanks, Senior!" Xiao Feng happily said, exchanging a guardian position for a buff protecting the Secret Realm—this move is not a loss!

"I'm leaving."

The Monster Emperor Xuan Die seemingly couldn't stay outside too long; after settling his daughter, he told Xiao Feng: "Mortal brat, see you next year."

After speaking, his figure vanished instantly from the spot, clean and decisive, without delay, as if he had never appeared.

Such an ability to come and go at will left Xiao Feng envious.

Xiao Feng's black wings fluttered behind him, keeping him afloat in the air.

Looking at the silk cocoon in the vine house, he couldn't help feeling helpless.

I had thought Xiao Xuan Die was a mid-level main god whose defeat would drop equipment, but instead I brought back a little ancestor.

Fortunately, she is long-term asleep and rarely awakens in daily life.

Otherwise, the Three-Eyed Gold Pandas would surely suffer!

"Chief, chief~"

Seeing the Monster Emperor leave, the wild beasts gathered around and whispered: "Chief, you weren't out hunting main gods, so how did you bring back something so formidable?"

Yeah yeah, the title Demon Emperor—as far as I know, in the whole Myriad Heavens Battlefield only a few big shots of the Calamity Demon Clan dare to use it!

That senior just now—could he be a Venerable-level expert?

The wild beasts had many problems, but their voices were also very soft, for fear that speaking too loudly would wake the sleeping Xiao Xuan Die and provoke the Demon Emperor's displeasure.

Xiao Feng curled his lips: "Who knows why I met her—today is just too coincidental; I still feel rather strange about it. But… it's not exactly a bad thing; we've basically gained a hidden Venerable-level expert as our backing, and our safety has increased."

Although Xiao Xuan Die's identity must not be revealed, if anyone dares provoke the Azure Moon Grotto Heaven, this backing could be put to use.

"Chief, what should we do from now on? Do we need to prepare food and drink for the Little Demon Emperor? Would she like to eat wild beasts?" Honghuang Hu asked, a little worried.

Xiao Feng didn't know how to answer this question either; he could only say, "Figure it out yourselves, just don't make her angry. This kid's strength is on par with a 900‑level Upper‑tier Main God—if you piss her off and get killed, I won't intervene."

"Ah? This!" The wild beasts panicked at once.

"Wishing everyone a happy life."

Xiao Feng summoned Da Bai, rode the white crane, and left the Azure Moon Grotto Heaven.

The three‑eyed golden panda and the other wild beasts stared at each other.

After a while, a voice sighed, "Everyone should bulk up—fatty meat isn't tasty, and if you get killed and turned into food, the odds will drop a bit."
