Chapter 499 The Little Boss

Hearing this, Feng Qishi immediately withdrew his smile and asked, "Old brother, what do you mean?"

"You, just now..." Zhang Yan chuckled and rubbed the bottom of his nose, "You really look like a girl."

"Uh." Feng Qishi froze.

Mu Anxiao glanced at Feng Qishi and said, "He's just passionate," she pointed at Feng Qishi, "Show the old man your magic artifact."

"Okay." Feng Qishi nodded, extended his hand, and summoned the Su Mu spear.

Immediately, Zhang Yan looked at the Su Mu spear in Feng Qishi's hand in surprise and asked, "Where did you get this?"

"This belonged to Hu Yuan in his past life. He snatched it from that female demon," Mu Anxiao explained.

"Can I hold it?" Zhang Yan slowly extended his hand.

Feng Qishi hesitated for a moment and said, "Don't break it." He handed over the Su Mu spear.

Zhang Yan pointed at Feng Qishi, "You brat." As he said this, the moment he took the Su Mu spear, he laughed, "This is a good thing, but it will only obey you if you get permission from its owner."

"I know," Feng Qishi nodded.

However, Mu Anxiao did not know this.

"Why does it need permission from its owner?" she frowned, "Can't I just take it?"

Hearing Mu Anxiao's words, Zhang Yan also became indignant, "You're wrong." He handed the Su Mu spear back to Feng Qishi.

"How is it wrong?" Mu Anxiao asked.

"This thing has spiritual energy. If..."

"Those two evil spirits who took your purple fire, they used it quite skillfully too. This thing should be the same as yours," Mu Anxiao said casually.

Zhang Yan looked at Mu Anxiao's naive expression and said, "Why haven't I noticed how simple-minded you are before?"

"What do you mean?" Mu Anxiao asked.

"It means nothing. I'm just asking you, have you ever seen such a magic artifact where you come from?" Zhang Yan pointed at the Su Mu spear in Feng Qishi's hand.

"No," Mu Anxiao replied without even looking at Feng Qishi.

"You didn't even look at me," Feng Qishi said.

Mu Anxiao sighed and glanced at Feng Qishi without speaking.

Zhang Yan said seriously, "As far as I know, your world didn't have such things, so it's unique there."

"Isn't your purple fire unique?" Mu Anxiao asked.

"No, there are two of my purple fire, and my master has the other one," Zhang Yan said truthfully.

Mu Anxiao responded with a perfunctory "oh."

"You're so cold," Feng Qishi said faintly.

Mu Anxiao glanced at Feng Qishi, then at Zhang Yan, "Alright, the topic ends here. Let's go find Hu Yuan."

"You can't win an argument with me, can you?" Zhang Yan intended to provoke Mu Anxiao.

Mu Anxiao gave a fake laugh, "Think whatever you want."

"Unique things prove they have their own thoughts. No one can use them arbitrarily. Your thinking is too simple," Zhang Yan continued.

Mu Anxiao pushed her nose and said, "So, this guy has gotten a treasure."

"Yes, but it only truly becomes a treasure after you get permission from its owner," Zhang Yan explained in detail, "Otherwise, even if you can use it, there will still be backlash in the end."

Mu Anxiao said nothing and looked at Feng Qishi, "You know so much."

"So-so," Feng Qishi scratched the back of his head and then made the Su Mu spear disappear.

"You're quite humble," Mu Anxiao said, turning and walking out of the room first.

Feng Qishi looked at Zhang Yan and whispered, "She listened to you."

Mu Anxiao squinted sideways and deliberately said, "Stop whispering, let's go. Hurry up." As she spoke, she opened the door.

Feng Qishi responded with a "yes" and followed Mu Anxiao.

Zhang Yan watched them leave and lowered his eyes with a smile, "I know what gift to give to Ms. Mu."

"What gift are you preparing for him?"

Hearing this, Zhang Yan looked down at the little follower who had just crawled out from the ground and said, "Guess."

"I can't guess," the little follower shook his head and smiled, "I have a partner."

"Whose child is it?" Zhang Yan asked.

The little follower smiled mysteriously and said, "Come out."

Zhang Yan looked down at the ground.

"I'm not coming out from below, look up."

Immediately, Zhang Yan obediently looked up at the underworld official in a suit who was passing through the wall and said, "Stop messing around."

"I'm not messing around," the underworld official in a suit said, looking down at the little follower, "Let me formally introduce myself. I am this guy's new partner, for fifty years."

"Didn't you do as Feng Qishi planned? Why is it like this now?" Zhang Yan was surprised.

The underworld official in a suit glanced at the little follower and stepped back, "Little boss, you speak."

"Okay," the little follower agreed, looked up at Zhang Yan, and said, "Originally, it was fine, but seeing that Chihuahua and the scabby dog have both confessed, it wouldn't be fair not to give him some punishment, so... it's like this." He pointed at himself and the underworld official in a suit.

"He's probably the only adult among you," Zhang Yan said.

The little follower smiled, "I suppose so, but I believe it won't be long before this guy becomes like us."

"Like you," Zhang Yan repeated, looking up at the underworld official in a suit, "Then, wouldn't that make him mentally retarded?"

"What do you mean?" the little follower was displeased.

"I don't mean that. You guys are cute," Zhang Yan tried his best to explain, pointing at the underworld official in a suit, "If he does the same things as you, then he's mentally retarded."

"I'm willing to be mentally retarded, what's the problem?" the underworld official in a suit retorted.

"Alright, alright, then you be. Anyway, this is your punishment," Zhang Yan said helplessly.

"Where is Mu Anxiao?" the underworld official in a suit asked.

"Why are you looking for her?" Zhang Yan asked.

"I've changed my profession, shouldn't she know about it?" the underworld official in a suit said righteously, in a loud voice.

Zhang Yan looked at the manic side of the underworld official in a suit and said, "Can you be gentler? If you're like this, I don't even want to answer your questions."

The underworld official in a suit froze and said, "Please tell me."

"She and Feng Qishi went to find Hu Yuan," Zhang Yan said.

"When did they leave?" the underworld official in a suit asked.

Zhang Yan deliberately put on a thoughtful expression and said, "About an hour ago. You should go find them."

"An hour..." the little follower repeated, sniffed the air, and said, "That's not right. Why do I feel like she just left?"

Zhang Yan looked down at the little follower's serious expression and asked, "Are you a dog?"

The underworld official in a suit imitated the little follower, sniffed the surrounding air, and said, "Why can't I smell anything?"

"I'll teach you this in a few days," the little follower pointed at the underworld official in a suit.

The underworld official in a suit's mouth twitched. Thinking about how long he had been with the little follower, he forced a smile and put on an expectant expression, saying, "Okay, little boss."
