"Why…" Lin Mu asked slowly, his gaze settling on the young nobles. "Why would you do this?"
For a moment, the youngsters were stunned into silence. Then one of them scoffed and stepped forward.
"Who do you think you are?" demanded a prince of the Olive Canopy Kingdom.
"That is right!" another prince from the Alabaster Plains Kingdom sneered. "How dare you interfere with us?"
Lin Mu's eyes grew colder.
"How dare I?" he repeated softly. "You attack my beasts and you dare ask me that?"
"Those beasts belong to you?" the princess of the Olive Canopy Kingdom asked. Her gaze sharpened. "Then name your price. I want them."
Lin Mu did not bother responding with words.
Instead, it was answered with a roar.
ROAR!
The heavens trembled.
Little Shrubby descended from the sky like a falling star, flames and lightning intertwining around his massive form. His roar shook the earth, sending waves of fear through the assembled army.
"Heavens above…" someone whispered.
