Bai Ye came back to his senses, glanced at Lydia, and waved the medicine bottle in his hand.
"Want it?"
"٩(◕‿◕｡)۶ Ho ho!! (Want it, want it!)"
Lydia nodded like a pecking chicken.
"Will you behave from now on?"
"Mmm! I'll do whatever Master says! \(^o^)/"
Bai Ye nodded, and then, under its expectant gaze, put away another bottle of magic potion.
(⊙ᗜ⊙)???
Lydia wanted it, but dared not stop him. She watched with wide eyes as Bai Ye put the medicine bottle into his pocket.
Then she saw Bai Ye say with a serious face, "From now on, if you do as I say and guard the ranch well, making me happy, it's not a problem to give you a couple of bottles of precious potions, or even raise you to the Demon King level!!"
Demon King level (★o★)!!!
Hearing Bai Ye's promise, Lydia's eyes immediately lit up, and she kept insisting that she could definitely do it. Big Wind Novel
"Aiya ya ya!!! Master~ Lydia will definitely work hard, and I'll definitely satisfy you!!"
"Good!"
Bai Ye nodded, and then discussed a few more things with it. When the sky began to darken, he floated out from the bottom of the lake.
The sky was dim, with a few stars occasionally twinkling, and a crescent moon had risen in the eastern sky.
The entire Wo Jiao mountain range was more deathly quiet than any other night. Because of the terrifying battle that had occurred today, the livestock were now afraid to even make a sound as they breathed, lest they invite a killing disaster...
"Woof woof woof!! (Big brother is still alive, not dead, that's great!!)"
"Ying ying!!! (Are you okay?))"
On top of the volcano, several figures saw Bai Ye float out of the lake and cheered excitedly.
Gou Dan, Xiao Fantuan, Xiao Bai... They had helped drive the livestock from the outer areas back into the Wo Jiao mountain range. After the outer hills and forests regained their tranquility, they mustered the courage to head towards the volcano.
"Woof woof woof!"
"Woof woof!!!"
...
Just as Gou Dan and the others were excitedly welcoming Bai Ye back, suddenly, the lake behind Bai Ye rippled, and a massive figure emerged from the water.
Σ(っ°Д°;)っ
Gou Dan and the others' cheers abruptly stopped, and they instantly became terrified and vigilant.
"Woof woof woof woof woof!!! (Be careful, big brother, it, it, it...!!!)"
"Ying ying ying!!! (Be careful, be careful, be careful!!!)"
...
However, they saw Bai Ye flying towards them without even turning his head...
Anxious!
But in the next moment, they saw the huge figure that filled them with dread let out a 'gentle' hum, devoid of any hostility.
"Roo roo roo ing—— (Master, tomorrow, the day after... come every day!!!)"
...
All the dogs were stunned, confused, (⊙ˍ⊙) Woof???
Xiao Fantuan vaguely seemed to understand something, and its round eyes were also full of surprise.
Bai Ye approached, landed behind Gou Dan, picked up Xiao Fantuan, and then patted Gou Dan on the back.
"What's all the fuss about? From now on, we're all family, be polite when you meet!"
Xiao Fantuan looked up at Bai Ye, calling out in surprise: "ʕ⊙ᴥ⊙ʔ Ying ying ying!!! (You're so amazing!)"
Xiao Bai, Quan Yi, and others secretly looked at Bai Ye, not daring to make eye contact. The reverence in their eyes grew even stronger, and their tails wagged more frequently.
Among them, the most excited and obvious in their display was naturally the king of dogs, Gou Dan.
"Woof woof woof woof!! (So the two-legged monster... woof, big brother is actually so powerful!)"
"Woof woof woof!!! (That's great! We can play without worry from now on in the ranch!!!)"
...
*Slap!!!*
A slap fell from the air, interrupting all of Gou Dan's fantasies, leaving only a buzzing sound in its mind.
"Hurry home!"
"Woof woof! (Okay! Big brother!)"
Watching Bai Ye ride away on Gou Dan, waves of dog barks came from the forest, gradually fading. Lydia's eyes suddenly showed a hint of envy. Only after she could no longer hear Bai Ye and the others did she quietly return to the lake.
The sky had completely darkened, and the Wo Jiao mountain range had returned to its former peace.
The Lone Star Villa, as always, had become the only brightly lit spot in the entire Wo Jiao mountain range.
Returning home, Bai Ye casually roasted several large wild boars with fire, then took a piece of golden pig's trotters and a bottle of red wine to the open-air balcony on the rooftop.
