Accidentally Married A Fox God - The sovereign lord spoils his wife
Chapter 46 Master, Stop Being Lazy!

When the enormous beast finally arrived, Li Meirong thought by the looks of it that she had jumped into a different world, straight out of the prehistoric era.

It appeared to be some kind of horrifying, massive reptile, resembling a Komodo Dragon. Its body was covered with glistening emerald scales, tough as iron. As it opened its mouth and slipped out its long forked tongue, a twin set of sharp, enlarged fangs gleamed threateningly.

"A-a fire drake!!!" Wu Wei hollered, hope reigniting in his eyes.

Wu Ying Yue likewise, saw the drake and her lips curled into a triumphant smirk.

She quickly rose from her kneeling position and backed her way towards her brother.

"Bitch! Let’s see you handle a fire drake! Even high ranked spirit plants cannot survive the heat of a fire breathing drake’s flame!" Wu Ying Yue shrieked over the gigantic beast’s roar. She grabbed Chou’s vines and pulled, trying to untangle Wu Wei to no avail. Chou wouldn’t budge.

Li Meirong stood frozen, shocked. She was too preoccupied with the drake to mind her conniving seniors. This lizard was close to the size of a Tyrannosaurus rex, and it did not look like it would answer to anyone or shared any alliance. She truly doubted it would spare them in an attack. A terrified shiver ran through her, leaving goosebumps all over her skin.

The fox cub, who had been too preoccupied with plotting the murder of this Jiangshi master fellow, noticed Li Meirong’s sudden change in attitude and glanced up curiously at the girl’s fear stricken face.

Why was she so scared?

Li Meirong couldn’t be bothered to notice the cub’s peculiar expression, her spirit plant shared in her fearful worries.

Chou thundered in her mind. ’Master, Chou will be roasted by this beast! Quick, use your phenomenal powers and take it down!’

"...." Said Li Meirong.

What phenomenal powers was he blabbering about?!!

’Master, stop being lazy!’ Chou urged further.

"I... I really don’t have any powers to battle a fire drake!" Li Meirong cried out in panic. Why was everyone expecting her to come up with magical solutions all of a sudden?

’Then what are we to do??’ Chou whined.

Bai Qingyue’s mouth hung slightly open, his shrewd golden eyes already following the communication between Li Meirong and the plant nuisance. Although he could only hear her responses, it was simple enough to deduce the meaning behind the only partially verbal conversation. Of all the possible complications he could have predicted for the time Li Meirong spent on her own, her not figuring out how to use the godly powers he bestowed upon her, or even knowing that she possessed them, had never occurred to him.

Even in an undeveloped world such as this, young children still practiced their knowledge of cultivation. She, however, didn’t seem to know how to tap into her own powers.

He wanted to knock some sense into his silly woman.

This wouldn’t do!

The stupid woman clearly couldn’t be left alone, for even when given cosmic powers, she was still unable to fend for herself!

He had to make sure there would be no more unfortunate incidents from now on, lest they separate again, and he will have to look for her soul in the netherworld.

But there were currently more pressing matters to deal with. If she had no basic practice of cultivation, then that meant they were in serious trouble.

Bai Qingyue wiggled his way out of Li Meirong’s grasp and jumped to the ground.

She thought he wanted to escape for his life, and let him go.

The reptile let out an angry roar, its jaws opened wide and a fireball materialized at the back of his throat.

Instead of dashing away into the woods, the tiny snow fox trotted up to the man eating plant, his eyes glowing eyes emitted a deathly chill, unbefitting a small animal in the face of life threatening danger.

Wu Wei and Wu Ying Yue took no notice of the fox’s odd behavior. Now that their aid had arrived, they waited for it to strike down their opponents.

Seeing her companions in danger, Li Meirong forced herself to break out of her frozen shock. She slapped both her cheeks in order to snap her senses back to reality, discarded her heavy backpack, and rushed toward her fox and plant. The fire drake began to aim its fireball at the whole group.

Chou titled his head downwards. His chubby body wobbled slightly in alarm as the scary fox reached him.

Now he must deal with both a fire drake and a demonic fox?!

Chou longed for the comfort of his jungle home. Being stronger clearly meant stronger enemies. Not worth it! Chou was becoming more like his master, preferring comfort over power.

With a series of purposeful barks, Bai Qingyue instructed the nuisance plant on his part in his plan. He then turned around and dashed back towards Li Meirong, who rushed to meet him. He bit a mouthful of cloth from the hem of her dress and began "dragging" her off the path in the opposite direction of the fire drake.

Understanding that the little fox wanted her to follow him, Li Meirong took off running, following the small fluffy creature. Bai Qingyue leapt forward and took the lead, letting go of her dress when he was sure she would follow.

Li Meirong looked back at her plant spirit left behind, her tone urgent, "Come quickly Chou, or we won’t make it!’

’I’ll be right there, master! Remember, Chou is nimble, strong, agile, and amazing~!’ Chou sounded confident. His assurances calmed Li Meirong’s nerves a little as she followed the fox cub away from danger.
