Chapter 148: The Most Arrogant Little Girl Under Heaven

With a cold shout from the Blood Fiend Patriarch, the three patriarchs of the Byetan Holy Land and Hua Manlou, the Emperor of the Byetan Holy Land, immediately burst forth from the depths of the Blood Fiend Patriarch's soul and landed on the ground.

"Greetings, Master!"

The three Byetan patriarchs and Hua Manlou all bowed respectfully to the Blood Fiend Patriarch.

Standing nearby, Chen Changsheng watched in secret amazement. This old fiend had actually tamed these four so completely that they now entirely regarded themselves as pets of the Blood Fiend Patriarch.

"This old man is a tiny bit formidable."

Blinking her bright eyes in disbelief, Chen Die'er let out a soft sigh as well.

"Haha!"

Winning the praise of Chen Die'er, the Blood Fiend Patriarch was immediately overjoyed in his heart and said, "Little Mistress, your humble servant here is a being from the Realm of the Gods. Taming these four was as easy as reaching out and taking something."

"Mm."

Chen Die'er nodded. She looked at Hua Manlou and the other three, and said to the Blood Fiend Patriarch, "Old man, make them bloom into flowers so I can see."

Little girls generally liked flowers and plants.

"You four, did you hear the Little Mistress? The Little Mistress wants to see your flowers."

The Blood Fiend Patriarch said to the four of them.

Hua Manlou and the other three stood there, exchanging glances, their hearts feeling bizarre to the extreme.

Master Chen and his daughter were merely ordinary mortals, yet the Blood Fiend Patriarch, a being hailing from the Realm of the Gods, was completely obedient in front of this father and daughter, even willingly becoming the little girl's pet.

Why on earth was this?

For now, this incredible mystery was beyond their comprehension.

"The intent of spring, the beginning of all living things, the source of life!"

The Spring Patriarch suddenly stepped forward and gave a soft shout.

Immediately, his body began to grow taller and twist continuously.

Before long, he had transformed into a spring tree, and a whole tree of spring blossoms bloomed in the blink of an eye.

A faint fragrance of flowers then drifted throughout the side hall.

"Wow, so pretty, and so fragrant!"

Chen Die'er cried out adorably, a look of excitement appearing on her delicately sculpted face. She then said to the Summer Patriarch, "You bloom into flowers for me to see as well."

"As you wish, Little Mistress!"

The Summer Patriarch nodded, also stepping forward, and gave a low shout: "The ferocity of summer, the strength of all living things, the pinnacle of life!"

Just like the Spring Patriarch, his body suddenly began to twist and grow taller, transforming into a vigorous, towering tree in the blink of an eye.

Gorgeous summer blossoms rapidly bloomed upon its branches.

In the blink of an eye, a tree full of summer flowers had blossomed.

"Truly pretty."

Chen Die'er was filled with excitement.

"The water of autumn, the sorrow of all living things, the fragility of life!"

The Autumn Patriarch did not turn into a flower; instead, he transformed into a sword of autumn water spanning dozens of meters.

The autumn water sword was entirely bathed in golden light, and a violent sword intent, resembling a vast ocean, emanated from the massive golden sword body.

The autumn water sword was no ordinary battle sword; it contained an unimaginably profound sorrow of autumn. Anyone who gazed upon it would inevitably experience a surge of sorrow welling up uncontrollably in their heart.

Clearly, this sorrow of autumn had evolved from the bleak and mournful sorrow found in the falling leaves of autumn.

"The witheredness of winter, the tribulation of all living things, the suffering of life!"

Hua Manlou gave a soft cry, transforming into a tree of crystal-clear winter flowers, which emitted tiny wisps of floral fragrance.

"Pretty, truly, truly, truly pretty!"

Chen Die'er looked at the three floral trees of spring, summer, and winter, her eyes brimming with delight.

Immediately after, her gaze shifted to the autumn water sword transformed by the Autumn Patriarch, and she shook her head with a hint of regret, saying, "Only this sword isn't a tree and can't bloom into flowers. That's a bit of a pity."

The three Byetan patriarchs and Hua Manlou, however, were inwardly terrified to the extreme. They knew all too well just how terrifying the autumn sorrow contained within the autumn water sword was.

Yet, this little girl's eyes remained bright and clear, and obviously, her heart harbored no sorrow at all at this moment.

Good heavens, this little girl turned out to be an expert living in seclusion!

Terrifying, simply too terrifying!

The hearts of the four beat wildly.

Right then, the four of them understood why a being from the Realm of the Gods like the Blood Fiend Patriarch was willing to become the pet of this little girl.

Then, their thoughts turned to Chen Changsheng.

If the daughter was already this terrifying, what about this Master Chen?

"Hiss..."

Hua Manlou and the other three all drew in a sharp breath of cold air, their hearts pounding frantically once again.

So this Master Chen, who kept claiming to be a mere mortal, had been playing the pig to eat the tiger all along!

What an ultimate master of pretentiousness!

"Little Mistress, how about this—I'll gift this autumn water sword to you as a toy from now on. How does that sound?"

The Blood Fiend Patriarch said ingratiatingly to Chen Die'er.

"Ah? You're going to gift me to this little girl to play with... as a toy?"

The Autumn Patriarch's jaw dropped to the floor. He was undoubtedly a supreme divine sword, yet his master was actually going to gift him to this little girl as a toy!

Good heavens, had you ever seen a little girl use a supreme divine sword as a toy?

Even wasting heavenly treasures didn't happen like this!

Hua Manlou and the other two patriarchs were equally shocked to the extreme, scarcely believing that this scene was real.

Ah, ah, ah, when did this world become so crazy?

"I don't want it. It's big and ugly. The toys my dad makes are much prettier."

Chen Die'er looked at the giant autumn water sword and shook her head with a look of utter disdain.

"Ah..."

Hua Manlou and the other four were completely petrified.

No adjectives could describe how they felt at that moment.

The autumn water sword was being offered to this little girl as a toy, yet she actually looked down on it with disdain!

Heavens, this was without a doubt the most haughty little girl in the entire world, bar none!

"Very well."

Having failed to curry favor, the Blood Fiend Patriarch could only smile helplessly.

Chen Die'er looked again at the three floral trees of spring, summer, and winter, raised her delicately sculpted face, and said to Chen Changsheng, "Dad, how about we plant these three trees in the courtyard as landscaping trees in the future, and use this autumn water sword as an ornament? How does that sound?"

"Oh? What a wonderful idea."

Chen Changsheng's eyes lit up, and he immediately nodded in agreement, "Alright, we'll do just as Die'er says."

Hua Manlou and the three patriarchs: "..."

This father and daughter were simply too insane; they actually wanted to use them as landscaping trees and decorative ornaments!

A capital level of insanity!!

"Hahahaha, Master Chen, Little Mistress, these four are all my pets. Whatever you father and daughter say goes."

The Blood Fiend Patriarch laughed loudly. As long as this father and daughter were happy, anything was possible.

"Right, Master Chen, you mentioned earlier that you had an idea. May I ask what kind of idea that is?"

Changing the subject, the Blood Fiend Patriarch asked Chen Changsheng.

Chen Changsheng nodded, looked at Hua Manlou and the three Byetan patriarchs, massaged his temples, and said, "Earlier, I suddenly thought of the Byetan Holy Land's supreme founding treasure, the Tree of Annual Rings. Back at the Fenghua Banquet in the Qianjue Holy Land, whenever a blossom from the Tree of Annual Rings fell, it would silently strip away one of the target's annual rings."
