The Dragon Prince's Wife is a Translator

Xi Xue and Bíng Huo slowly walked through the forest and as usual, there were various beasts watching them from afar but none dared to approach.

Xi Xue was there with the girl after all.

"Where are we heading?" Xi Xue whistled leisurely as he looked at Bíng Huo.

"Mmm exploring the mountain? Or you want to meet the ice eagle?" Bíng Huo tilted her head. "Usually new students can only explore the mountain if the seniors are with them, though."

"But you are my senior, so it counts." Xi Xue smirked. "What about meeting the ice eagle? Can we do that?"

"Normal students are prohibited from meeting the ice eagle." Bíng Huo giggled. "But we are an elite one so we can!"

Seeing Bíng Huo's smile, Xi Xue once again felt his heart pounded. Something just tickled his heart, sending a numb feeling.

'...weird.'

"Ah, okay. So we can go." Xi Xue averted his eyes from Bíng Huo. "Will it be dangerous to meet the ice eagle just by the two of us?" he added.

"Mmm, no? Because the ice eagle is tame but she is a bit…" Bíng Huo scratched her cheek and smiled bitterly. "She is a bit arrogant and cold so...don't take her words personally, okay?"

"In case she said something offensive."

"...mn. I heard the ice eagle is indeed arrogant." Xi Xue nodded. "She only likes that Long senior, right?"

"Right!" Bíng Huo nodded energetically. "I heard from grandpa that the senior is really the ice eagle's favourite." The girl's eyes sparkled.

"After he graduated, the ice eagle refused to listen to anyone but she gradually softens up."

"....she doesn't have a mate?" Xi Xue tapped his left arm as he walked.

Bíng Huo paused a bit. The girl looked up at Xi Xue and shook her head. "She is too prideful. I know she is one of the strongest sacred beasts so...yeah…"

"And that's why she doesn't want to mate with another sacred beast?" Xi Xue frowned.

'That sphinx woman, Mian Xiang...is the strongest sacred beast and she still married someone weaker than her.'

"Maybe she thinks no other beasts are good enough for her?" Bíng Huo shrugged. "Anyway, it's not like she has to mate and bear a child."

"Ah, right. Sacred beast life span is long." Xi Xue nodded.

'At least 1000 years or more. But the sacred beasts living at the higher realm can live up to 3000 years…'

"How long has she been in this Academy?" Xi Xue suddenly asked.

'Dong Xi Academy had existed even before his majesty attended their school so...it should be more than 1000 years?'

'It's been 1000 years since mistress went back to her world…'

"I think she has been here ever since 1500 years ago?"

!

"Wait, a sacred beast lifespan is only 1000-ish ah?" Xi Xue frowned.

'Of course, that doesn't apply to me.'

"I heard that she acquired a dragon blessing and can live up to 2000 years? She has 500 years more to live. Still long, " Bíng Huo leisurely replied.

"Ah...so she is around my age," Xi Xue mumbled in a small voice.

'But since I'm a vampire...a unique kind of sacred beast...I can actually live as long as the mythological beast.'

"Why are you asking, though? You look interested." Bíng Huo tilted her head as they went out of the forest and arrived at the vast snowfield.

So far, they didn't meet any students taking the exam.

"I'm a beast tamer, of course, I'm interested in sacred beasts." Xi Xue lied without batting an eyelid. "This will be my first time seeing a sacred beast!"

"Ah, no wonder." Bíng Huo nodded and was about to walk further when she heard noises several meters ahead.

!

"Those should be the students." Bíng Huo squinted her eyes and indeed, not far from their place was a group of students in uniform.

There were 4-5 people there and they were battling another group.

"Should we take a detour?" Xi Xue glanced at Bíng Huo.

The white owl following her was still flying around her head.

"Let's just ride my owl. I don't want to take a detour." Bíng Huo waved her hand and the white owl immediately reshaped into its original size.

The owl flapped its wings, sending a strong wind to all direction as it slowly descended on the ground.

"Okay, let's ride this," Bíng Huo casually spoke. She kicked off the ground and flew toward the 3-meters tall owl. In a second, she was right on its back.

Seeing this, Xi Xue did the same. He casually floated and sat right behind Bíng Huo.

The space on the owl's back was still vast but the guy chose to sit so close to the girl until her back touched Xi Xue's chest.

"Em...this…" Bíng Huo suddenly felt her face became hot. "That, Xi Xue, can you back off a bit…" The girl gripped the owl's fur lightly. She didn't look back at Xi Xue at all.

"Eh, I'm afraid I'll fall, ah!" Xi Xue blinked innocently. Instead of backing off, he stretched his hand and suddenly hugged Bíng Huo's waist.

!!

"What are you doing??" Bíng Huo hit Xi Xue's hand but he won't budge. She tried to struggle her way out but once again, Xi Xue didn't let her do so.

"Ey, don't move around too much. You might fall." Xi Xue smirked before whistling out of the blue.

In a mere second, the white owl flapped its wings and kicked off the ground, shooting up to the sky.

"Wah!!" Caught off guard, B��ng Huo shrieked. She subconsciously turned around and hugged Xi Xue's body.

'W-why he- so sudden!!'
