Even though Xi Wan didn't understand what "little ancestor" meant, he could tell from Su Yu's tone that it wasn't a compliment.
Rage surged within him, yet he couldn't bring himself to even think of harming Su Yu. He only grew more wary and fearful of this Little Black Fox who had appeared out of nowhere.
His expression darkened.
He never imagined that after a lifetime of vigilance, he would be bested by such a weak little black fox.
Su Yu had also been cautiously observing Xi Wan's reaction. Seeing the anger on his face but no killing intent, she knew he had completely become her Contracted Beast. For the duration of the contract, he would never be able to harm her.
'To catch a thief, you must first catch the king.' As long as she had Xi Wan under control, the other males in the caravan wouldn't harm her.
She could also travel safely to South Sea Merfolk City under Xi Wan's protection and wait for Shi Wei and his people to find her.
