Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 1186: Leaving Ou Ya Si without saying goodbye (two in one

Zhengzhou? Qiao Sang was stunned: “We’ve already left Menzhou?”

Mi Jiala hummed: “We left Menzhou an hour ago.”

Zhengzhou, the city next to Menzhou, has an average daily temperature of 48 degrees Celsius. Even people and Pets born there since childhood generally can’t stand it, so it was selected as one of the “Furnace Cities.”

However, even so, many Yu Beast Masters and Pets from other cities would settle here for a period, because they found that Fire-type Pets staying in high-temperature cities for a long time would have their Fire-type energy more active than elsewhere, and the time for energy accumulation would be shortened significantly.

A hundred years later, the city next to Menzhou was still called Zhengzhou, so Qiao Sang knew some relevant information and it wasn’t completely unfamiliar.

She felt the surrounding temperature and thought to herself that it didn’t feel particularly hot.

“Li Li.”

Just as she was thinking, Li Ou Yas called out to the Yuan Ice Jellyfish, which was silently emitting cold air, signaling it to retract the cold air.

“Yuan Yuan…”

The Yuan Ice Jellyfish was stunned, subconsciously turning its head to look at Qiao Sang, Mi Jiala, and Ya Bao.

It always remembered that its job was to emit cold air, and if cold air wasn’t needed, it should be the guests who called for it to stop.

“Ting Ting!”

Before Qiao Sang could speak, Ting Bao shook its head like a rattle-drum and cried out.

It couldn’t be retracted, it would be too hot!

“Li Li.”

Li Ou Yas looked at it, and called out faintly, indicating that if it couldn’t stand even this much heat, how could it become stronger.

“Ya Ya!”

Ya Bao nodded, expressing deep agreement.

Xiao Xunbao handed over the Energy Pill and the tree fruit.

Ya Bao’s eyes lit up, instantly forgetting about getting stronger, and began to eat in large bites.

“Ting Ting…”

Ting Bao showed a conflicted expression.

On one hand, it felt like it couldn’t do without this cold air, and on the other hand, it felt that it really needed to get stronger, otherwise its Yu Beast Master wouldn’t even take it out.

Just like today.

“Xia Xia.”

At this moment, the colored flower bud Xia La La calmly called out, indicating that there was no need to retract the cold air, as it was also a bit hot.

Upon hearing this, Li Ou Yas looked at the colored flower bud Xia La La, and said nothing more, as if compromising.

“Ting Ting…”

Ting Bao silently breathed a sigh of relief.

It wasn’t that it didn’t want to get stronger.

The Yuan Ice Jellyfish continued to emit cold air.

“Since we’ve left Menzhou, do we need to find a place to stay?” Qiao Sang asked.

Mi Jiala didn’t answer, but looked at Li Ou Yas and the colored flower bud Xia La La.

She knew she had no say at the moment.

“Li Li.”

Li Ou Yas called out, indicating that if they wanted to find a place to stay, they should go find it, as it would continue to run.

After speaking, it closed its eyes.

“Steel Chief.”

Steel Treasure translated in its mind.

There are still some similarities with spiritual bodies, such as preparing to sleep when they don’t want to talk much… Qiao Sang inwardly complained, then said seriously: “I think it’s good to stay here tonight. Once we’re well-rested, we’ll leave together.”

While they were talking, Xiao Xunbao continued to take out a pile of food from the ring.

Besides Big Brother Ya Bao, it remembered that its Yu Beast Master and Lu Bao hadn’t eaten either.

Before long, the aroma of various foods wafted through the air.

Qiao Sang, Mi Jiala, and Lu Bao quickly started eating.

The aroma of the food filled its nostrils, lingering on its taste buds, and Li Ou Yas unconsciously sniffed with its nose, suddenly feeling a bit hungry.

It opened its eyes, and without speaking, just watched quietly.

The first to notice Li Ou Yas was Xia La La.

It was stunned for a moment, then picked up a tree fruit, came before Li Ou Yas, handed it over, and called out:

“Xia Xia.”

Fool, that’s not what it wants to eat… Li Ou Yas glanced at Xia La La, its gaze falling on its golden flower bud, and suddenly lost its desire to eat, closing its eyes again.

“Xia Xia…”

Xia La La showed a confused expression.

It clearly felt that the other party wanted to eat…

As thoughts flickered, Li Ou Yas suddenly opened its eyes again, took the tree fruit from Xia La La’s paw, put it in its mouth, and swallowed it directly.

“Xia Xia.”

Xia La La was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

The colored flower bud Xia La La couldn’t help but smile too when it saw this scene.

The flowers and trees in the valley swayed rustlingly in the wind.

Qiao Sang handed a green tree fruit to the colored flower bud Xia La La and said:

“Would you like to eat this? It’s called Wood Fragrance Fruit, a new type of tree fruit that was cultivated later.”

“Xia Xia.”

The colored flower bud Xia La La glanced at the human in front of it, took the tree fruit, tasted a bite, and calmly called out, indicating that it tasted good.

Qiao Sang smiled: “Although I haven’t tasted it, I imagine it should taste good, after all, you a hundred years later…”

When she got here, she stopped, realizing that her words seemed a bit inappropriate.

“Xia Xia.”

The colored flower bud Xia La La’s expression didn’t change at all. It ate the tree fruit while calmly calling out, indicating that its future self would probably also like this taste.

Qiao Sang was silent for a moment, then hummed.

“Xia Xia?”

The colored flower bud Xia La La turned its head and looked over, calling out in confusion.

Are you sad for me? Why?

Damn it, what on earth are they talking about… Mi Jiala perked up her ears nearby, but unfortunately, she couldn’t understand at all.

She couldn’t help but glance in the direction of Pen Jiami and Dragon King, but at this moment, they were both focused on eating and didn’t notice their Yu Beast Master’s gaze.

Does this even need to be asked… Qiao Sang expressed her meaning with her eyes.

“Xia Xia.”

The colored flower bud Xia La La understood the meaning, smiled, and called out, indicating that there was no need for her to feel sad for it, wasn’t its future self very happy?

Upon hearing this, Qiao Sang looked at the future Xia La La.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao was seen handing a bag of potato chips to Xia La La.

“Xia Xia…”

Xia La La shook its head, its expression full of refusal.

It didn’t like to eat things it wasn’t familiar with.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao directly stuffed the potato chips into Xia La La’s mouth.

Xia La La was stunned for a moment, subconsciously took a bite, and then its eyes lit up:

“Xia Xia!”

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao showed a “I told you so” expression.

“Qing Qing.”

Qing Bao casually called out from the side, indicating that if you like it, let Xiao Xunbao give you all the potato chips.

Xia La La’s gaze fell on the bag of potato chips in Xiao Xunbao’s paw.

“Xun!”

Xiao Xunbao quickly turned its body, blocking the potato chips, and called out, indicating that it couldn’t give them all!

“Xia Xia~”

Xia La La couldn’t help but laugh.

Seeing this scene, Qiao Sang’s brows relaxed, and she felt much lighter.

A few seconds later, she thought of something, picked up a bag of potato chips from the ground, opened it, and handed it to the colored flower bud Xia La La, saying:

“You have some too.”

“Xia Xia.”

The colored flower bud Xia La La was stunned for a moment, took a bite, and then its brows relaxed.

Late at night.

In the valley.

The dryness from the scorching sun during the day slowly settled in the tranquil valley, and the evening breeze was even a bit cool.

Qiao Sang, Mi Jiala, and Ya Bao fell asleep one after another.

Li Ou Yas, who had been closing its eyes, suddenly opened them, looked at the colored flower bud Xia La La, then at the golden flower bud Xia La La, and got up and left.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao floated to Li Ou Yas’s side, curiously calling out, indicating: Where are you going?

Li Ou Yas’s gaze fell on Xiao Xunbao.

An indescribable Pressure instantly surged like a tidal wave.

Xiao Xunbao didn’t react in time, and its eyes rolled back, fainting on the ground.

The next morning.

Qiao Sang was woken up by a loud shout of “Xun! Xun!”.

Opening her eyes, she saw Xiao Xunbao in front of her, calling out anxiously.

“What’s wrong…” Qiao Sang asked groggily.

“Xun!” Xiao Xunbao called out anxiously.

What? Li Ou Yas is gone?!

Qiao Sang instantly sobered up, rose abruptly, and turned to look at the spot where Li Ou Yas had been lying last night, indeed not seeing its figure.

Mi Jiala had also woken up by now and asked in a deep voice from the side: “Didn’t you hear any movement yesterday?”

“Pen Pen.”

Pen Jiami shook its head.

“Mo Mo.”

Dragon King yawned and called out, indicating that if even Pen Jiami didn’t hear it, how could it possibly hear it.

“Reli…”

Reli Roka glanced at the colored flower bud Xia La La.

However, the colored flower bud Xia La La ignored it, showing a thoughtful expression, not knowing what it was thinking.

“Didn’t you see how Li Ou Yas left yesterday?” Qiao Sang looked at Xiao Xunbao and couldn’t help but ask.

“Xiao Xunbao…”

Xiao Xunbao showed a wronged expression and called out.

It looked at me, and I fainted.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Sang’s heart sank.

If that was truly the case, then Li Ou Yas had left intentionally, and didn’t want them to know.

She and Teacher Mi Jiala definitely didn’t have such status; if it wanted to leave, it would just leave directly, there was no need to wait until everyone was asleep at night. It didn’t want Xia La La to know… Qiao Sang gathered her thoughts, her gaze falling on the colored flower bud Xia La La, and asked:

“Can you contact Li Ou Yas now?”

“Xia Xia.”

The colored flower bud Xia La La called out, then extended its paw to the flowerpot on the ground, pulled out a phone from it, and dialed a number.

“Xia Xia.”

A few seconds later, it shook its head.

Mi Jiala said in a deep voice:

“Li Ou Yas left on its own initiative, so it’s impossible to contact it. We can only go look for it ourselves.”

Qiao Sang nodded with a heavy heart, then thought of something, and asked with hopeful eyes:

“Can we try asking the plants and trees like yesterday?”

“Xia Xia.”

The colored flower bud Xia La La nodded, then placed its paw on a nearby flower.

Green light glowed from its paw tip, then rippled outwards.

“Ya Ya…”

At the same time, Ya Bao slowly woke up.

“Xun!”

Xiao Xunbao called out anxiously.

Big Brother Ya Bao, you’re only waking up now! Li Ou Yas is gone!

“Ya Ya?!”

Ya Bao instantly sobered up, leaped up, looked around, and seeing that Li Ou Yas was indeed not there, it couldn’t help but let out a wail:

“Ya Ya!”

Its evolution material!

“Xia Xia.”

At this moment, the colored flower bud Xia La La looked over and called out, indicating that it had found it.

Qiao Sang: “!!!”

Ya Bao: “!!!”

The grass, flowers, and trees swayed without wind, indicating the direction.

High in the sky, Ya Bao flapped its wings and ran quickly according to the colored flower bud Xia La La’s directions, yet it still couldn’t catch up to Li Ou Yas.

During this time, Xiao Xunbao even performed group Space Movement several times.

Unfortunately, each time they reached the indicated direction, the plants and trees would inform them that Li Ou Yas had already left for another place.

The colored flower bud Xia La La once again pointed the direction.

Ya Bao ran tirelessly high in the sky.

Time passed bit by bit, the sun set and the moon rose, and day gradually turned into night.

Gradually, day and night alternated again, and night turned into day.

Under Lu Bao’s Healing Light, Ya Bao never fell asleep, continuously running.

When it was time for its usual meal, it didn’t rest either, instead opening its mouth, allowing Xiao Xunbao to pour Energy Pills into its mouth, eating a few hasty bites.

Three days later, Mi Jiala looked at the barren land below, full of bare rocks, and hesitated: “Why do I feel like we’re back in Zhengzhou?”

“Xia Xia.”

The colored flower bud Xia La La picked up its phone to get a location, and after a moment, called out, indicating that this was indeed Zhengzhou.

After circling for so many days, they actually returned… Qiao Sang showed surprise, then she looked down, and thinking of something, asked:

“Could it be that Li Ou Yas knew we were chasing it, and also knew that Xia La La was finding its location by asking the plants and trees, so it specifically ran to this place with hardly any grass?”

Mi Jiala pondered for a moment:

“Probably not. As long as Li Ou Yas keeps running, we can’t possibly catch up to it. Moreover, Yan Tian Star is hot, and there are many places without grass. It doesn’t need to specifically turn back for this reason.”

Qiao Sang thought for two seconds and suggested another possibility:

“Then is it possible that Li Ou Yas is actually directionally challenged?”

Mi Jiala fell silent.

There really was such a possibility.

“Ya Ya?”

Ya Bao stopped and called out, indicating: Which way should we go now?

“Xia Xia.”

The colored flower bud Xia La La called out, indicating to wait.

Then its eyes glowed green, and it perked its ears, sensing.

“Xia Xia.”

A moment later, the green light in its eyes faded, and it pointed to the left, calling out.

Although this was considered barren land with few weeds, any place with even one plant could tell Xia La La what it wanted to know.

Without another word, Ya Bao turned and ran to the left.

“Xia Xia.”

After advancing for more than ten minutes high in the sky like a streak of fire, the colored flower bud Xia La La suddenly called out.

Ya Bao abruptly stopped.

Qiao Sang looked down but did not find any trace of Li Ou Yas.

However, the temperature here was significantly higher than elsewhere, and the air was distorted by the heat.

“Yuan Ice…”

The Yuan Ice Jellyfish, which had been continuously emitting cold air, seemed unable to bear it any longer and weakly collapsed onto Ya Bao’s back.

“Ting Ting!”

Ting Bao anxiously circled the Yuan Ice Jellyfish, crying out.

Lu Bao emerged from the backpack, emitting cold air.

Ting Bao immediately forgot about the Yuan Ice Jellyfish, its eyes lit up, and it ran towards Lu Bao.

Qiao Sang gazed down, stunned for a moment, then showed a look of shock, asking:

“What is this?”

The barren land wasn’t entirely barren; under the scorching sun, dazzling red light appeared densely below, forming a strong visual contrast with the surrounding desolate landscape. (End of Chapter)
