The little beast did not seem to understand him. It simply opened its mouth toward him, revealing a row of sharp teeth, before burying its head once more to graze. Curious, Su Yu leaned in to observe the herb carefully. He noticed that the leaves were covered in mysterious patterns and emitted a faint, refreshing fragrance.
"This herb doesn't look simple at all. It might even be some kind of treasure!" Just as Su Yu reached out to pluck it, the little beast suddenly leaped up and let out a loud roar, as if warning him not to touch it.
"Don't get excited, don't get excited. I won't pick it, alright?" Su Yu quickly waved his hands. "You little fellow, you're quite protective of your food."
