Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 1185: Ask for leave

“Meimei.”

Reli Roka, in the form of Meimei, called out.

The leading ‘Grass Vine Ox’ seemed to realize something at this moment, and braked sharply again.

The group of Grass Vine Oxen following behind also braked immediately.

The leading ‘Grass Vine Ox’ didn’t speak, but merely motioned to the side with its head.

The Grass Vine Oxen behind it understood implicitly and scattered.

The ‘Grass Vine Ox’ stopped running and walked over on its four limbs. Although its eyes were almost completely covered by green leaves and not visible, Qiao Sang still felt like she was being stared at.

As the ‘Grass Vine Ox’ approached, the surrounding air seemed to solidify.

Qiao Sang, Mi Jiala, and Ya Bao all simultaneously felt immense Pressure.

At this moment, the fresh flowers in the flowerpot swayed gently as if in the wind.

The Pressure enveloping them completely dissipated.

Qiao Sang and Mi Jiala subtly breathed a sigh of relief; the sense of crisis from being stared at by a terrifying existence vanished.

The ‘Grass Vine Ox’ narrowed its eyes, scrutinizing the two humans and the numerous Pets before it, then subtly glanced at the flower in the flowerpot, and called out:

“Li Li?”

If earlier there was only a ninety percent chance that the hornless Grass Vine Ox in front of them was Li Ou Yas, then with that cry, Qiao Sang could almost certainly conclude that the Grass Vine Ox before them was one hundred percent the Li Ou Yas they were looking for.

“Meimei.”

Reli Roka, in the form of Meimei, called out.

Immediately after, its eyes glowed green.

A green barrier spread downwards, enveloping them.

The Pets whose gazes had been focused here all froze for a moment, showing confused expressions, but soon moved their eyes away uninterestedly and continued to play.

The fresh flower in the flowerpot reverted to its original appearance and jumped out, landing on the ground.

The ‘Grass Vine Ox’ raised its left front paw and pulled away the leaves covering its body, revealing its true form inside.

A crimson body with black flame patterns, a white face, nose, and abdomen, a tuft of red beard on its chin, a black ribbon-like substance wrapped around its tail, and wearing a miniature shrinking wristband.

Its appearance was precisely Li Ou Yas.

“Ya Ya!”

Upon seeing this, Ya Bao showed an excited expression and called out.

Li Ou Yas glanced over, its head slightly raised, looking aloof.

In its opinion, it was perfectly normal for other fire-type Pets to be excited upon seeing it.

After all, it was a legendary fire-type Divine Beast.

“Ya Ya!”

Ya Bao looked at its Yu Beast Master and happily called out, indicating that this was the real Li Ou Yas, and now it could finally have eye boogers.

…Li Ou Yas’s proud expression froze on its face.

“It’s ocular discharge,” Qiao Sang corrected.

“Li Li?”

Li Ou Yas’s expression returned to normal. It looked at the colorful flower bud and called out questioningly, asking who these guys were.

“Xia Xia…”

The colorful flower bud looked at Li Ou Yas with a complex expression, then began to narrate.

They came from a hundred years later…

Li Ou Yas listened silently, from initial indifference to subsequent disbelief.

It showed a stunned expression and called out:

“Li Li?”

A hundred years later, it would only be a spiritual body? How could that be!

“Reli…”

Reli Roka sighed and called out, indicating that it was also hard for it to believe.

“Li Li!”

Li Ou Yas refused to believe it.

Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!

“Xia Xia.”

The colorful flower bud did not explain anything, but called out to its future self.

The Fresh Fresh Grass-like creature took off the durable flower on its head and transformed back into its original appearance.

“!!!” Li Ou Yas froze for a moment, then, after a while, it cried out in shock:

“Li Li!”

How is there another one!

“Reli…”

Reli Roka was overwhelmed with sorrow and began to shed tears silently.

“Because it’s the future one,” Qiao Sang, having heard Steel Treasure’s translation in her mind throughout, naturally knew what Li Ou Yas was saying and explained.

The future one?

Li Ou Yas looked at the past one with a stunned expression, then its expression suddenly stiffened, and it turned to look at the colorful flower bud, calling out stiffly:

“Li Li?”

Why are you in your Beginner form a hundred years later?

“Reli…”

Reli Roka’s tears fell even more intensely.

“Xia Xia.”

The colorful flower bud called out with a calm expression.

Li Ou Yas unconsciously took a step back, showing an incredulous expression. Then its gaze fell back on the future one, and its expression became dejected, its eyes filled with sadness.

It hadn’t been this sad even when it first learned that it wouldn’t be around a hundred years later.

The atmosphere became somewhat heavy and sad for a moment.

“Xia Xia?”

At this moment, the colorful flower bud called out, asking if you usually saved any Li Fire Crystal?

The heavy atmosphere was swept away.

Ya Bao showed an expectant expression.

“Li Li.”

Li Ou Yas’s sad emotion receded, replaced by an expression of “Are you kidding me?”, and it called out.

Why would it collect its own eye boogers for no reason?

“Xia Xia.”

The colorful flower bud called out calmly, indicating that it hoped you could secrete Li Fire Crystal in the next few days.

“Li Li.”

Li Ou Yas frowned, calling out with a displeased tone, indicating that it was almost dead, so why would it specifically leave Li Fire Crystal?

As it spoke, it glanced at Ya Bao.

It knew that this little guy was the one who needed its Li Fire Crystal.

“Xia Xia.”

The colorful flower bud’s tone remained very calm.

Because this is the deal it made, it hopes you can agree.

“Steel Treasure.”

Steel Treasure translated in her mind.

No, the deal you made with me was just to help contact Li Ou Yas… Qiao Sang looked at the past one with a complex expression.

“Li Li.”

Li Ou Yas was silent for two seconds, then called out, indicating that it understood and to come get it in two days.

With that, it draped the leaf-composed item over its body.

“Steel Treasure.”

Steel Treasure helped translate.

Qiao Sang listened and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

The Li Ou Yas in front of her clearly had a different personality from the spiritual body from a hundred years later, but as long as it agreed, it should not go back on its word.

“Li Li.”

Li Ou Yas looked at the colorful flower bud and called out, indicating that it would leave Muzhou and that it would be contacted by phone then.

Leave Muzhou? Qiao Sang froze for a moment after hearing Steel Treasure’s translation in her mind.

“Xia Xia?”

The colorful flower bud showed a puzzled expression and called out.

Why leave Muzhou?

“Li Li.”

Li Ou Yas showed an “Isn’t it obvious?” expression and called out.

Since it died in Muzhou in the future, it naturally couldn’t stay here; it didn’t want to wait for death.

“Li Li?”

After speaking, it seemed to think of something, looked at Mi Jiala, and called out, asking how it died later?

It could sense that among the two humans, this one was stronger.

Mi Jiala froze for a moment, not immediately realizing that Li Ou Yas was talking to her.

“Pen Pen.”

Pen Jiami called out from the side, translating for the first time.

However, Li Ou Yas had already become impatient and looked at the other human.

“Your mental body didn’t say anything specific,” Qiao Sang said immediately.

I should have contracted a Pet that could evolve through bonds… Mi Jiala felt a bit weary at the moment.

It was rare for a legendary Pet to actively seek her out for a chat, and she just missed it…

“Li Li.”

Li Ou Yas called out, indicating he understood, then turned and left.

“Wait!” Qiao Sang called out.

Li Ou Yas stopped, turned his head, and looked over.

“If you don’t mind, I hope we can act together,” Qiao Sang said seriously.

On one hand, if Li Ou Yas produced secretions from his eyes, she could get them immediately.

On the other hand, she also really wanted to know exactly what happened a hundred years ago that caused a Fire-type divine beast to die.

She didn’t believe that Li Ou Yas leaving Muzhou would change the later outcome.

Mi Jiala remained silent beside her.

Their purpose in traveling back a hundred years was for the Li Fire Crystal, and if they could follow Li Ou Yas, it would naturally be for the best.

“Li…”

Li Ou Yas showed an impatient expression, just about to say he minded.

“Xia Xia.”

The colorful-budded Xia Lala suddenly called out, indicating it would also go along.

“Li Li.”

Li Ou Yas’s impatient expression vanished, replaced by a compromising one, and he called out, indicating that if they wanted to go together, then so be it.

With that, he turned and left.

The green barrier in front of him was as if it didn’t exist, and he passed directly through it.

Xiao Xunbao showed a curious expression, preparing to pass through like Li Ou Yas.

However, it bumped its head against it, and the green barrier rippled like water.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao rubbed his head.

“Xia Xia.”

The colorful-budded Xia Lala called out.

Xia Lala then reverted to its Fresh Fresh Grass form.

Reli Roka, wiping away tears, sobbed as he removed the barrier.

Mi Jiala immediately followed.

At this moment, Qiao Sang said:

“Teacher, I’ll let Xiao Xunbao go to the hotel first to pick up Dragon King and the others.”

Dragon King and Ting Bao could both be recalled into the Yu Beast Codex, but now with the Yuan Ice Jellyfish, they had to make a special trip.

Almost forgot about Dragon King… Mi Jiala’s body stiffened slightly, then returned to normal, saying:

“Okay.”

Qiao Sang looked at Xiao Xunbao.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Before she could even speak, Xiao Xunbao nodded and called out, indicating he would go now.

Then his eyes glowed blue, and he disappeared from the spot.

Even without navigation, he remembered the way from here to the hotel.

Not long after, Xiao Xunbao returned to the original spot with Dragon King, Ting Bao, and the Yuan Ice Jellyfish.

At this time, Li Ou Yas had only walked a few dozen meters forward.

“Ya Ya!”

Ya Bao ran forward two steps, then turned his head and called out to his Yu Beast Master, indicating to hurry up.

“Coming,” Qiao Sang said, speeding up and lifting her leg to follow.

“Xia…”

The Fresh Fresh Grass-shaped Xia Lala called out, then realized something, quickly covered his mouth, and swiftly followed.

Qiao Sang heard the movement, stopped, and bent down to pick it up.

The golden buds around Xia Lala’s neck unconsciously swayed.

The colorful-budded Xia Lala seemed to sense something, and when he turned his head, he saw his future self, a hundred years later, obedient and a little happy in a human’s arms.

He froze for a moment, his gaze falling on the young girl.

“Reli?”

Reli Roka called out beside him.

“Xia Xia.”

The colorful-budded Xia Lala shook his head and called out, shifting his gaze.

Five hours later.

The full moon hung high.

The cold light shone on the quiet valley.

Suddenly, a noisy sound rang out.

Many Pets began to flee in all directions.

Swish swish swish… A figure ran wildly into the valley, with faint red firelight visible within.

In the high sky, Ya Bao flapped his wings, following closely.

“Does Li Ou Yas like to run so much? He’s been running for five hours without a break,” Qiao Sang glanced at the time on her phone and couldn’t help but say.

Mi Jiala floated beside her, explaining:

“Li Ou Yas is inherently a Pet that loves to run.”

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have noticed something was wrong back then.

“Gurgle…”

Ya Bao’s stomach rumbled.

“Do you want to eat something first?” Qiao Sang suggested.

“Ya Ya.”

Ya Bao called out, indicating no.

He was afraid of losing track of Li Ou Yas.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao, while stuffing snacks into his mouth, called out, indicating that if they got lost, they could just make a phone call to contact him.

Ya Bao didn’t respond and continued running.

The evolution material was down below, and he didn’t want any mishaps.

“Steel Chief.”

Steel Treasure called out calmly, indicating that if everyone didn’t mind his hard body, he could carry them to continue following, allowing Ya Bao to rest.

The matter of his hard body was not going to pass, he was too vengeful… Oh no, Steel Treasure will hear… Qiao Sang’s body stiffened slightly.

Steel Treasure silently glanced at his Yu Beast Master.

“Ya Ya!”

Ya Bao, while flapping his wings and following, called out, indicating there was no need, and for them to just stay on him.

“Xia Xia.”

The colorful-budded Xia Lala listened to the conversation and suddenly called down.

The plants and trees in the valley swayed.

The running figure slammed on the brakes, suddenly stopping.

“Xia Xia.”

The colorful-budded Xia Lala called out, indicating for them to go down.

Both the Xia Lala from a hundred years ago and the Xia Lala from a hundred years later are so gentle… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly.

At this critical moment, Xia Lala suddenly spoke, and she naturally knew it was because he heard Ya Bao’s stomach rumbling.

“Ya Ya!”

Ya Bao called out and ran downwards.

Mi Jiala, Pen Jiami, and Dragon King followed closely.

“Li Li?”

Li Ou Yas looked at the dozen or so figures falling in front of him and called out, indicating what was wrong?

“Xia Xia.”

The colorful-budded Xia Lala left Ya Bao’s body and called out, indicating to rest first.

“Li Li.”

Li Ou Yas showed a displeased expression and called out.

How long has it been, and they’re already resting?

“Xia Xia.”

The colorful-budded Xia Lala calmly called out, indicating he was hungry.

Li Ou Yas’s displeased expression vanished, he sighed, and called out:

“Li Li.”

Rest if you must rest.

Saying that, he pulled off the leaf prop draped over him, revealing his original form, and lay on the ground.

“Gurgle…”

Ya Bao’s body slowly shrunk, and his stomach rumbled again.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao took off the ring and quickly took out Ya Bao’s exclusive Energy Pill and some tree fruits from it.

Qiao Sang sat cross-legged and asked:

“Where are we now?”

Her phone was useless, navigation was useless, positioning was useless, she had no idea where she was.

“Zhengzhou,” Mi Jiala said. (End of Chapter)
