Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 1135: Xia Lala’s fragrance (two in one)

The true fire crystal is finally mine… Qiao Sang showed a pleasant surprise and immediately flattered, “Pen Jiami’s actions are truly without unexpected events.”

“Xun!”

Xiao Xunbao looked at the crystallizing feather, showing an expression of adoration, and called out.

“Penpen.”

Pen Jiami quirked its mouth, handed the crystallizing feather forward, and called out.

Qiao Sang solemnly accepted it.

Mi Jiala smiled, “Let’s go, time to catch up on sleep.”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao’s eyes glowed blue.

The next second, the two, along with Pen Jiami and Xiao Xunbao, vanished from the spot.

Villa.

The night was deep.

Mi Jiala and Pen Jiami went back to the second floor to catch up on sleep. Qiao Sang returned to her room, handed the fully crystallized true fire crystal to Xiao Xunbao, and instructed:

“Find a good place to keep it safe. This is Ya Bao’s future evolution item.”

“Xun!”

Xiao Xunbao showed a serious expression, nodded, then took off its ring and put the true fire crystal in a good spot.

Qiao Sang immediately thought of something, formed a hand seal, and summoned Ya Bao.

“Ya Ya…”

Under the Healing of the yu beast codex, Ya Bao had already woken up. It lay half-reclined on the bed, struggling to open its eyes. When it saw its surroundings, it seemed to understand something and struggled to get up.

“You’re so seriously injured, don’t get up yet.” Qiao Sang finished speaking and turned to look at the location of Lu Bao’s fish tank.

Just as she was about to call out to wake Lu Bao, she found that Lu Bao was already awake. Without a word, the gem on its forehead emitted a faint blue light that shone on Ya Bao.

Within a few breaths, the faint blue light dissipated, and Ya Bao instantly became energetic again, showing no signs of injury.

“Ya Ya…”

However, the next second, Ya Bao wilted.

It lost, and it lost badly…

Ya Bao… Qiao Sang glanced at Ya Bao, sighed inwardly, and turned to ask Lu Bao:

“When did you wake up?”

“Bingdi.”

Lu Bao called out.

When Xiao Xunbao called you, its voice was too loud.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao scratched its head in embarrassment.

Qiao Sang was also a bit embarrassed, “Then you can continue to sleep. It’s just that the Zhendai Bird came, but everything is fine now.”

Hearing this, Lu Bao glanced at Ya Bao and slowly closed its eyes.

“Ya Ya…”

Ya Bao drooped its tail, looking utterly dejected.

Qiao Sang looked at Ya Bao, lowered her voice, and comforted it:

“The Zhendai Bird is an Emperor-level, two whole levels higher than you. The higher the level, let alone challenging across levels, even within the same realm, the early and middle stages have huge differences in strength. It’s perfectly normal for you to lose to the Zhendai Bird.”

“Ya Ya…”

Ya Bao still looked gloomy, clearly not comforted by these words.

Qiao Sang immediately thought of something else and added:

“The true fire crystal, the feather from the Zhendai Bird, is already in hand. With it, you’ve gathered one-third of the evolution materials for Emperor-level. When you successfully evolve to Emperor-level in the future, you’ll definitely be able to defeat the Zhendai Bird.”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao nodded and called out, indicating that the true fire crystal was now in its ring.

As it spoke, it was about to take off its ring to show the true fire crystal to Big Brother Ya Bao.

“Ya Ya…”

However, just as it was taking off its ring, Ya Bao called out dejectedly, indicating not to bother. It was still King-level, not even Emperor-level, so even if all the Emperor-level evolution materials were collected, it would be useless.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao stopped its movements, looked at its Yu Beast Master, and used its eyes to say, “Big Brother Ya Bao seems very sad…”

“Yes…” Qiao Sang responded to Xiao Xunbao with her eyes, then looked at Ya Bao and said seriously:

“Why is it useless? This is all preparation for you to become Emperor-level in the future. Just because you’re not Emperor-level now doesn’t mean you won’t be Emperor-level in the future. Just as you can’t defeat the Zhendai Bird now doesn’t mean you won’t be able to defeat it in the future.”

Hearing this, Ya Bao finally looked up at its Yu Beast Master.

“Finally listening…” Qiao Sang saw this, felt a surge of joy, and continued to say seriously:

“Not all Pets are born strong. You’ve also gotten stronger step by step, haven’t you? You have to believe in yourself; you can definitely become stronger than the Zhendai Bird in the future.”

She paused, then added:

“I, for one, absolutely believe in you.”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao quickly echoed with a cry.

It also believed.

Ya Bao looked at its Yu Beast Master, then at Xiao Xunbao, its expression gradually becoming firm, and it called out:

“Ya Ya!”

It understood!

After speaking, it jumped off the bed and walked towards the door.

Qiao Sang immediately understood what Ya Bao was going to do and quickly said:

“Don’t go train yet. Lu Bao and the others are still sleeping. Your training will wake them up.”

Ya Bao’s body suddenly stiffened.

Qiao Sang said gently:

“Go to sleep first. Train when you wake up tomorrow.”

“Ya Ya…”

Ya Bao turned its head, showing an expression of “there’s no other way,” then leaped onto the bed, found a comfortable position, lay down, and closed its eyes.

Qiao Sang completely relaxed, extended her right hand towards Xiao Xunbao.

Xiao Xunbao blinked, seemingly not understanding what its Yu Beast Master meant.

“Phone.” Qiao Sang mouthed silently.

Earlier, Xiao Xunbao used her phone for positioning, but it never returned it to her.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao showed an extremely reluctant expression and handed the phone over.

Qiao Sang plugged the charging cable into the phone by the bedside table, lay on the bed, and closed her eyes.

The true fire crystal was already in hand. Ya Bao’s Emperor-level evolution materials now only lacked the li fire crystal and the tai yang jing (sun crystal)…

The Emperor-level evolution path was said to be about getting close to the sun, but the specifics still needed to be tested…

Thinking about this seemed too early. The one most likely to break through currently was Qing Bao. It was unknown how long its evolution materials would take to arrive…

Sleepiness washed over her. In a daze, Qiao Sang smelled a refreshing herbal fragrance and fell into a dream.

The next day, early morning.

Qiao Sang woke up feeling refreshed. She sat cross-legged on the bed, habitually wanting to Meditate.

However, the next second, she seemed to realize something and looked to the side.

The Ya Bao, which usually slept at this hour, was no longer on the bed.

Qiao Sang froze for 0.1 seconds, then picked up her phone and looked at the time:

7:05 AM.

Ya Bao was actually awake at this hour… Qiao Sang’s ears twitched, hearing the continuous sound of skills exploding outside, and her mood instantly became complicated.

Back then, Ya Bao couldn’t be woken up no matter how much she called. Later, it could wake up with a simple call. Now, it even knew to wake up early.

Is this growth…

Qiao Sang collected her thoughts, got out of bed, put on her shoes, and went to the outdoor training ground. Sure enough, she saw countless Yan Jiaoou practicing different skills.

Perhaps remembering what was said last night about everyone still sleeping, the power of the various skills Ya Bao released was noticeably restrained.

Ya Bao had truly grown up…

“Xun!”

As thoughts flickered, Xiao Xunbao teleported next to its Yu Beast Master, crying out with teary eyes.

Save me!

Qiao Sang froze for a moment, “What’s wrong?”

“Xun!”

Xiao Xunbao showed a wronged expression, crying and complaining.

Big Brother Ya Bao made me train with it, and it’s been training for so long and still wants me to accompany it!

Qiao Sang said amusedly:

“You’re the same level as Ya Bao now, are you still afraid to train with it?”

“Xiao Xunbao!”

Xiao Xunbao called out pitifully.

But Big Brother Ya Bao won’t let me rest!

“Ya Ya!”

No sooner had the words fallen than Ya Bao, high in the sky, looked over and called out, indicating that it had only trained for a short time, so there was no need to rest.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao tugged at its Yu Beast Master’s sleeve, sniffled, and called out pitifully.

Look at Big Brother Ya Bao…

Qiao Sang said, “Last night we left at past 3 AM and probably returned at past 4 AM. After that, Ya Bao still slept. It’s only a little past 7 AM now, so even if it started training from past 4 AM, it hasn’t been training for too long.”

“Ya Ya.”

Ya Bao nodded in the sky.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao released its sleeve, stepped back, and showed a hurt expression, seemingly unable to believe its Yu Beast Master would say such heartless words.

Qiao Sang coughed and continued:

“However, everyone is almost awake now, and we should prepare breakfast. Xiao Xunbao, why don’t you help me in the kitchen?”

“Xun!”

Xiao Xunbao’s hurt expression vanished, and it nodded repeatedly.

Okay, okay!

Seeing this, Ya Bao said nothing more and continued training by itself.

Qiao Sang walked towards the kitchen.

Xiao Xunbao followed happily behind.

From afar, Qiao Sang saw You Zhen Meow busy in the kitchen and couldn’t help but be surprised. She walked closer and asked:

“You’re awake so early?”

“Youyou.”

You Zhen Meow continued its hand movements while calling out, indicating that its routine was always this early.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao helped translate.

Qiao Sang looked at You Zhen Meow’s hand movements and asked:

“Is there anything you need help with?”

“Youyou.”

You Zhen Meow shook its head and called out, indicating that nothing was needed, just to sit and wait to eat.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao translated.

Honestly, having a Pet butler isn’t bad at all… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly, said “I understand,” turned and returned to her room, quickly washed up, sat cross-legged on the bed, and began to Meditate.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao stayed quietly in the room, afraid of being seen by Ya Bao if it went out, and then being dragged off for sparring again.

Suddenly, an herbal fragrance wafted into its nostrils. Xiao Xunbao felt its spirit lift and floated towards the scent.

Then it saw Colored Flower Bud Shalala sleeping in a flowerpot by the window.

So fragrant… Xiao Xunbao couldn’t help but lean in and sniff.

Just then, Colored Flower Bud Shalala woke up, slowly opened its eyes, and saw Xiao Xunbao’s large face up close.

It was surprised at first, then greeted it warmly:

“Shalala.”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao first responded, then leaned in and sniffed again, calling out sincerely:

“Xiao Xunbao~”

You smell so good~

“Shalala.”

Colored Flower Bud Shalala smiled and called out, indicating that the fragrance on its body had the effect of relieving fatigue and relaxing the body and mind of living beings. If you like it, smell it more; it’s good for your health.

As it spoke, the flower bud on its neck swayed.

The room’s fragrance instantly became even richer.

Qiao Sang smelled the refreshing fragrance, her nose twitched, and she unconsciously relaxed her body and brain region.

In a place unseen, her brain region slightly loosened again.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao took a deep breath, feeling its body and mind increasingly comfortable.

Suddenly, its sharp eyes caught sight of Xiaoting Dragon’s tail twitching by the fish tank, knowing that the other party was about to wake up. It couldn’t help but float closer, grinning, wanting to greet its little brother friendly.

Xiaoting Dragon opened its eyes and saw Xiao Xunbao’s large face up close.

“Ting Ting!”

Xiaoting Dragon was startled, and instinctively, crackling electric arcs appeared on its body and struck forward fiercely.

Xiao Xunbao: “…”

Half an hour later.

At the dining table.

“Ting Ting…”

Xiaoting Dragon rolled up a tree fruit and carefully placed it on Xiao Xunbao’s plate.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao picked it up and ate it.

Seeing this, Xiaoting Dragon relaxed and peacefully ate its own Energy Pill.

Qiao Sang ate her fried egg and asked:

“The Zhendai Bird won’t notice something is wrong and come back for it, will it?”

After all, the location was in the chat history.

Mi Jiala took a sip of milk and said, “Don’t worry, if it had noticed something was wrong, it would have noticed it on the spot, not waited until now.”

It seems that even Emperor-level Pets can be smart or not so smart… Qiao Sang heard this and relaxed. Then she thought of something and asked:

“Are we looking for the li fire crystal or the tai yang jing (sun crystal) first?”

Mi Jiala pondered for a few seconds and said:

“The tai yang jing (sun crystal) is the crystal residue from meteorites that fall from the Yan Tian Star at regular intervals. This phenomenon is usually warned about in advance on news channels.”

“I know that.” Qiao Sang said, “I specifically checked; the last time this phenomenon occurred was 32 years ago, and there haven’t been any recent broadcasts.”

“No broadcasts mean it won’t happen in the near future.” Mi Jiala analyzed rationally:

“We can’t wait for this phenomenon, but we can search for tai yang jing (sun crystal) that have remained from the past. Compared to the legendary traces of the Pet Liousias, tai yang jing (sun crystal) are clearly easier to find.”

Qiao Sang nodded in agreement, “Then we’ll look for the tai yang jing (sun crystal) first.”

“Shalala?”

Suddenly, Colored Flower Bud Shalala called out.

Mi Jiala immediately looked at Pen Jiami.

“Penpen.”

Pen Jiami swallowed the Energy Pill in its mouth and called out, helping to translate.

It’s asking if you need Liousias for something.

Mi Jiala looked at Colored Flower Bud Shalala, her voice slightly strained:

“We need the li fire crystal, that’s why we need to find it.”

She paused, then added, “The li fire crystal is the secretion from its eyes.”

Qiao Sang heard what Teacher Mi Jiala said and immediately understood what Colored Flower Bud Shalala had mentioned. Her eyes lit up, and she asked:

“What, you know it?”

“Shalala.”

Colored Flower Bud Shalala nodded.

I saw it once before.

“Steel Treasure.” Steel Treasure helped translate in her mind.

Qiao Sang’s eyes brightened even more, “Then do you have its contact information, or do you know where it lives?”

“Shalala.”

Colored Flower Bud Shalala shook its head.

Hearing this, Qiao Sang couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.

“Ding dong~”

At this moment, the doorbell rang.

You Zhen Meow went to open the door.

The person who came was wearing a flashy floral shirt, none other than Kang Yang, whom they had just met yesterday.

He took off his shoes while excitedly saying:

“Senior! Junior Sister! I have news about the Zhendai Bird! According to reliable sources, it appeared in Dragon Country last night! Right here where we are!”

Mi Jiala: “…”

Qiao Sang: “…”
