In the following days, Qin Yichen stayed in Huo Lie's mansion for seven to eight days.
In the eyes of outsiders, this was definitely an unparalleled honor. However, Qin Yichen felt that each day felt like a year.
That was because during this period of time, Huo Lie was practically not in the mansion. Every morning, he would anxiously run out and only return late at night.
Furthermore, every time he returned, he would lie in his room drunk and sleep soundly. He did not mention a single word about meeting the Elven King.
During this period of time, Qin Yichen discovered that the enormous energy within Little Ling 'er's body had started to faintly become restless. This made him even more worried.
On this day, contrary to Qin Yichen's expectations, Huo Lie did not run out as usual. Instead, he came to where Qin Yichen was in formal attire.
"Little brother Qin, let's go. It's time to bring you to meet the King."
Huo Lie said with a solemn expression, "However, let me remind you first. I can bring you there, but when we get there, you must not speak too much or be disrespectful. Do you understand?"
Qin Yichen nodded his head. Looking at Huo Lie's attire, this matter seemed to be quite reliable.
Immediately after, after tidying up his attire, Qin Yichen brought Little Ling 'er along and followed Huo Lie out.
At this moment, outside the mansion, a species that Qin Yichen had never seen before came over following Huo Lie's summons.
This species was completely snow-white. Its body was like a large steed. On its back, there were two pure white wings. What was even more peculiar was that there was a sparkling and translucent curved horn on its forehead. A kind of holy fluctuation was faintly emitted from it.
"This is … a Unicorn?!"
Seeing this Unicorn, Qin Yichen's pupils shrunk slightly.
Unicorns had a gentle temperament. It was said that they were able to discern people's hearts. They would only allow those who loved peace and were kind to ride them. Those who were relatively close to them were pure and untainted by the secular world.
This species had long been extinct in the records of many races.
However, Qin Yichen had read in the ancient records of the human race that unicorns had never gone extinct. They lived together with the elves in the Elf Forest.
"Wow, what a beautiful white horse!"
Little Ling'er exclaimed from the side. Her petite figure immediately pounced towards the unicorn.
"Be careful."
By the side, Huo Lie, who was giving instructions to his guards, hurriedly shouted out.
Unicorns were prideful and holy creatures. Even the elves who lived with them were not acknowledged by them.
Unicorns were born with a keen sense of perception. They would never let anyone they didn't like touch them.
The unicorn was something that Huo Lie had signed a contract with after he became the Fire Elf Clan's deacon.
Although this fellow in front of them looked incomparably gentle, if other elves were to touch it, they might be injured by its resistance if they weren't careful!
It had to be known that even Huo Lie didn't dare to touch other unicorns. If he was caught off guard, he might be injured, let alone such a young girl.
However, his warning was a little too late. Perhaps he had underestimated Little Ling'er's speed. In the blink of an eye, this little girl had jumped in front of the unicorn.
"Little girl, don't touch it!"
Seeing this, Huo Lie could only shout out a warning.
However, Little Ling'er acted as if she didn't hear Huo Lie's warning. Her little hand was already caressing the unicorn's long leg.
Seeing this scene, the few high-ranking elves couldn't help but close their eyes.
They clearly remembered that when they saw the unicorn for the first time, there was a curious fellow who also touched it like Little Ling'er.
In the end, that fellow had a few of his ribs broken by the unicorn's kick, causing him to be bedridden for half a month.
It had to be known that they were from the Elf Clan. Even with their recovery abilities, they were still bedridden for half a month. If it was an outsider, they would have to be bedridden for at least half a year.
They really didn't know if this little girl in front of them could withstand the strength of the unicorn's leg!
When they closed their eyes, there didn't seem to be any strange sounds. After a while, those elves opened their eyes with great difficulty.
However, the next scene caused them to become somewhat sluggish.
At this moment, Huo Lie was standing by the unicorn's side. His figure was somewhat sluggish. In front of him, the unicorn that had signed a contract with him didn't seem to want to kick Little Ling'er away. Instead, it was meekly kneeling on the ground and using its arrogant head to rub against Little Ling'er.
This appearance was even more intimate than when it was with Huo Lie!
"Wah, little beast, you're so obedient …"
"What's your name?"
"Bai Ling? That's not a nice name. In the future, you'll be called Bai Xue. "
At this moment, Little Ling'er was stroking the unicorn's white hair while softly laughing.
Perhaps only Qin Yichen wasn't too surprised by this scene. The other elves, including Huo Lie, all had faces of sluggishness and disbelief.
The one who was the most shocked should be Huo Lie. Perhaps it was because he was standing relatively close to Little Ling'er, but he was able to clearly hear it.
When he heard Little Ling'er say that the name Bai Ling wasn't a nice name, his rosy face immediately became even redder.
Bai Ling was a type of fine wine in the Elf Clan. It was also one of Huo Lie's favorite drinks in the past. Therefore, he called the unicorn Bai Ling.
However, what he didn't understand the most was how Little Ling'er knew the unicorn's name.
One had to know that even though he had signed a contract with the unicorn, they could only summon each other through the contract. There was simply no way for them to communicate with each other directly!
However, the porcelain doll-like little girl in front of him was so intimate with the unicorn that it was as if they were old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time and were conversing intimately!
What exactly was going on?
"It seems that the unicorn really likes pure-hearted children. This matter is true!"
After a long while, the high-ranking elves finally recovered from their shock. They looked at each other and couldn't help but sigh.
The other elves nodded inwardly. From their point of view, this was the only explanation for the scene before them.
"How could this be?"
Huo Lie's brows were tightly knitted together as if he was still thinking about the reason behind this. However, even with his experience, he was unable to explain the scene before him.
"Deacon, it's time to move. If we're any later, we'll be late."
In the end, it was a guard who kindly reminded Huo Lie that pulled him back from his thoughts.
"Let's go."
