Chapter 417 Lost Direction

Nevertheless, Daniel remained unconcerned, brandishing an impish smile. "Although Beauty didn’twant to give me hairs from certain private areas, your head hair will do. The scent might not be asstrong, but it was taken from you! It should work well enough."

"You pervert, I'll twist you to death!" Furious and gnashing her teeth, Beauty pinned Daniel to theground and furiously twisted at his waist with her hand. After giving the rascally Daniel a goodthrashing, she huffed, "I'm starting the clock now. If you don't replace the Tiger King within thirtyminutes, you lose. You will kneel before Soldier and headbutt the ground, calling him 'grandpa.' AndI will punish you!"

"What kind of punishment will you give me?" Daniel asked with a grin.

"I'll pluck every last hair from your head, one by one, leaving you bald!"

"Whoa! Beauty, don't you think that's a bit extreme?"

"You asked for it! That's what you get for irritating me!"

Daniel scratched his head, mulling over the situation seriously. Something didn’t feel right as herecalled, "Beauty, when we made the bet just now, we said one hour, didn't we?"

"It was an hour before, but it's thirty minutes now."

"Why is that?"

"Because I said so! I decide! If you lose after thirty minutes, I'll pluck every hair from your head!"

Beauty was utterly unyielding. After asserting her rules, she internally contemplated a wicked ideabut quickly dismissed it.

No, no! How could she even consider that?

She was a lady, after all.

Besides, if she did that, wouldn't she be giving the country boy what he wanted?

Daniel fashioned the captured hair strands into a butterfly knot and tied it atop the hen's comb.

"Let's go!" At his command, the hen led the way, clucking as it moved forward.

Before long, fifteen minutes had passed. Despite the hair linked to Beauty tied to its crest, the henseemed unable to locate the Tiger King. It had started circling in place. Beauty noticed the telltalesign and lashed out at Daniel with irritation.

"You useless country kid, yanking my hair out hurt! And what's the result? Look at this hen, it's lostall direction!"

"As I said, the hair is just a stopgap measure! It couldn't guarantee the best effect. There wassomething much better that could definitely lure the Tiger King out, but you wouldn't give it to me."

"Get lost! If you spout another word of nonsense, I’ll rip your mouth apart!"

"My mouth has been torn apart by you plenty of times!"

"You think I won't?"

"Beauty, how could you not? You'd miss out because my mouth is quite useful to you; it brings youjoy. If you tear it up—smack!—there goes your happiness."

"Country boy, quit your chattering! While you've been wasting time talking, another five minuteswent by. Now you only have ten minutes left. If you still can't replace the Tiger King then, you lose!"
