"Wahahaha..." Xiang Pa roared with laughter once he recovered from his shock, his body shaking uncontrollably.
"Then... little one, grow up quickly. We'll talk again when you're older," Vados said, winking at Vegeta after a moment of stunned silence.
"Really? It's a deal then," Vegeta extended his pinky finger. "Let's link pinkies."
"Alright, it's a deal," Vados nodded, extending her own pinky finger.
Vegeta and Vados linked their pinkies.
"Pinky swear, a hundred million years, no changing! Whoever breaks it is a loser!" Vegeta chanted as they did the pinky promise.
Vados: "..."
That's quite an oath you've got there.
"Pfft..."
Xiang Pa burst into laughter again.
That oath is strong enough to make Grand Minister himself a "loser," isn't it?
You actually made fun of Grand Minister...
"Alright, from today onwards, you're my wife," Vegeta declared.
"Oh my, oh my, you're only 5 years old, aren't you, little one?" Vados wiped her brow.
"I'm not 'little one,' I'm Vegeta," Vegeta retorted.
"Fine, fine, little Vegeta," Vados appeased him. "Come find me when you're older. If you can find me, I might consider marrying you, hee hee..."
"Boop..."
With that, Vados planted a kiss on Vegeta's cheek.
Immediately after, Vados looked up at Xiang Pa and nodded at him.
"Whoosh!"
In the next instant, Xiang Pa and Vados flickered and vanished from the spot.
They had left the scene.
"Vados, you're not serious, are you?" Xiang Pa asked sideways, unable to help himself.
"What? Lord Xiang Pa?" Vados blinked, confused.
"About marrying that brat, of course," Xiang Pa said.
"Oh dear, oh dear, I was just playing with a child. Can such things be taken seriously?" Vados smiled. "That little one is quite cute, and he has a certain charm. I couldn't resist teasing him."
"That's true... when he grows up... he probably won't be able to find you," Xiang Pa nodded. "You're too cunning, Vados. This man named Vegeta will grow up waiting to marry you, only to search the entire universe and never find you! That's how you shatter a man's heart."
"What are you talking about, Lord Xiang Pa? He's so young, he'll have forgotten me by then," Vados shook her head with a smile.
"But then again, what if he actually finds you?" Xiang Pa mused, stroking his chin.
"If he actually finds me... it means we're fated to be together," Vados smiled.
"You're not actually going to marry him, are you?" Xiang Pa asked.
"Hee hee... we'll see then," Vados giggled. "It's all talk, what's the point of saying so much?"
"Shall we go? Let's try some other snacks over there," Xiang Pa suggested.
"Alright," Vados nodded.
...
Vegeta rubbed the cheek Vados had kissed.
Then, Vegeta brought his finger to his nose and sniffed.
It smelled so good...
Is this what an angel smells like?
You want me to find you when I grow up?
Don't worry.
I will definitely find you.
But before that, I must become number one in the universe.
Let me first test how well I can adjust to this body.
"Whoosh!"
Vegeta took to the sky and sped towards Cui's direction.
Cui's spaceship tumbled several times in the air before crashing in the city center, destroying a sculpture of Beerus.
Cui was thrown around violently, feeling dizzy and disoriented.
What confused Cui the most was the chicken leg in his mouth.
A half-eaten chicken leg.
Who the heck gnawed on this chicken leg?
Why is it in my spaceship?
Cui shook his head vigorously, trying to clear his daze.
Immediately after, Cui shot up into the sky, piercing through his spaceship and appearing high above.
"Damn you, Vegeta!" Cui blamed Vegeta for everything.
Cui's eyes widened with fury, his body trembling uncontrollably. He pressed the scouter on his eye and searched everywhere for Vegeta's whereabouts.
"Yo, who do I see? It's a toad," Vegeta flew over from a distance, looking at Cui with a smirk.
Vegeta recognized Cui at a glance.
Isn't this the weakling who Vegeta killed with one move in the future?
Though, his battle power wasn't that low in the future, it reached around 18,000, didn't it?
"Vegeta! You dare show yourself!" Cui was overjoyed, but also a little surprised.
Given Vegeta's current battle power, it's a thousand points lower than mine. He should have run away immediately.
Or maybe launched a surprise attack when I wasn't looking.
But he actually dared to appear in front of me so brazenly.
Saiyans are indeed arrogant.
The two of them hovered in the sky, facing each other.
Quite a crowd had gathered below, all looking up at the two figures in the sky: Vegeta and Cui.
"Is that... isn't that someone from Frieza's army?"
"It looks like it... judging by their attire, they must be from Frieza's army..."
"Planet Vampa is under Frieza's jurisdiction, after all."
"What are they doing? Are they going to fight here?"
The spectators murmured amongst themselves.
In the distance.
Xiang Pa and Vados suddenly noticed the commotion.
"Vados, that's your future husband, Vegeta," Xiang Pa said with a smile. "He seems to be about to fight that person."
Vados glanced in that direction.
"My feeling is that the toad-like fellow is a bit stronger than your husband," Xiang Pa said with a laugh. "Tsk... are you going to be a widow right after getting married?"
Vados: "..."
Vados looked at Vegeta, then at Cui.
Vados quickly analyzed the situation and confirmed that Vegeta's strength was indeed slightly inferior to Cui's.
If a fight were to break out, this gap would be utterly fatal.
It seems this little one is in danger.
"Let's go take a look too. I want to admire your future husband's skill," Xiang Pa grinned, his mouth stretching from ear to ear.
"Bang!"
Vados swung her scepter, hitting Xiang Pa directly on the forehead.
A bump immediately appeared on Xiang Pa's forehead.
"What are you doing?" Xiang Pa glared.
"Oh dear, oh dear, the scepter just hit by itself," Vados giggled.
