Chapter 5029: 5.0781 New Friend

This child looked particularly punchable, purely the type who would never behave unless given a good beating! The three heads beside Qiao Mu nodded in perfect, tacit agreement.

The little stoic took action. She grabbed the little imp, her small hand landing on the child's bottom with a slap. "No manners!"

"Slap!" Another one.

"Children shouldn't spout nonsense when adults are asking questions."

"Also, it's not 'woman,' it's 'Auntie'!"

The little imp, having been hit three times, let out a wail. Where was the arrogant, triumphant stance from moments ago, hands on hips and laughing? Now he was dangling in Qiao Mu's hand, his little hands and feet flailing in mid-air. He sobbed, wiping tears. "Mean woman! Bad woman. Just you wait, when my contractor comes, I'll make sure you get what's coming to you!"

Mo Lian's mouth twitched. He glanced sideways at the approaching Saint Beast human-snake, and teased, "You two are probably relatives, aren't you?" Their level of culture and choice of words felt quite similar.

Zuo Lanshan: "..." What's with this sudden feeling of ten thousand points of damage, and Crown Prince Mo's subtle disdain?

"Do I need to step in and help the little stoic beat this Condensing Light Mirror?" Zuo Lanshan, trying hard to impress the little stoic and establish his presence, said this.

Master Guang Guang's forlorn wails echoed around the pavilion. "You are all a bunch of bad people!" he cried pitifully. "You're heartless, inhumane, and cruel, bullying Master Guang Guang. I'm definitely going to tell my contractor, boo-hoo-hoo, wah-wah-wah!"

"Amitabha. Little benefactor, please do not cry and wail! Your voice is particularly shrill and unpleasant; this humble monk's ears hurt listening to it."

Everyone: "..."

Qiao Mu couldn't help but twitch the corner of her eye. She looked down at the bald little monk who had trotted to her side. Kong Kong, Guang Guang—both names shared a similar characteristic, and their bald appearances were also quite alike. Only, Little Monk Kong Kong was three years older than Master Guang Guang. Standing beside Guang Guang, he looked very much like a little adult.

"Pfft." Peach Blossom Immortal Venerable couldn't help but chuckle. He took the wailing Guang Guang in one hand and said with a smile, "Hey, Guang Guang, look, didn't I tell you I'd introduce you to a new friend? See? Just like you, with a shiny bald head."

"And just like you, he loves to nag, even more than you do. Aren't you happy and pleased to have found such a good friend?"

Master Guang Guang had now stopped crying. His round eyes curiously examined Little Monk Kong Kong.

"Nonsense!" Master Guang Guang raised a hand to touch his own small head, calling out in a childish voice, "This person is clearly a monk, how can he be like Master Guang Guang? Master Guang Guang didn't shave his head himself; he has never had hair! From childhood to now, no hair has ever grown; it has always been, barren land!"

While muttering this, the imp kept touching his own smooth, round bald head. Everyone looked on and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Alright, you two go play over there." Qiao Mu raised a hand to her forehead, shaking her head with a speechless expression.

"Female benefactor, who is this little benefactor?"

"It's not a person, it's a mirror," Mo Lian said irritably. "It's a very noisy mirror."

"Kong Kong, take this mirror back to the Star Domain and just find a place for it to stay."
