Chapter 1215: Let the wind tell you (two in one)

“Ting Ting.”

Tingbao nodded while eating a popsicle, indicating that he understood.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao called out, then led Tingbao back to the food street, which exuded a rich aroma.

A gust of wind followed closely behind.

On the other side.

“Qingbao!”

Qingbao called out, indicating that it would immediately replace the dissipated clone, and that today it would definitely figure out what Xiao Xunbao and the Sixth Brother had been doing all day.

After speaking, it conjured a clone, sensed it slightly, and then transformed into Wind Transformation, quickly blowing in a certain direction.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang asked,

“Did only one of your clones dissipate just now?”

Qingbao did not answer. It was currently controlling one clone to follow Xiao Xunbao and Tingbao, while simultaneously sensing the position of that clone and directing another clone to go there, unconsciously blocking out surrounding sounds and focusing all its attention on controlling the two clones.

“Qingbao.” Qiao Sang called out.

Qingbao still did not respond.

“Qingbao.” Qiao Sang couldn’t help but raise her voice and call out again.

As her Yu Beast Master’s voice entered its ears, Qingbao’s attention momentarily scattered, and the clone it had conjured for the second time dissipated again.

“Qingbao…”

It showed a wronged expression, looked at its Yu Beast Master, and called out.

“Did only one of your clones dissipate just now?” Qiao Sang repeated her previous question.

Qingbao didn’t answer immediately, but after two seconds, it nodded and called out:

“Qingbao.”

Most of its attention was still on the single remaining clone.

“You can’t do it like this.” Qiao Sang sighed.

“Qingbao?”

Qingbao reacted for a second, showing a puzzled expression.

“When training for long-distance control of clones, the main body must not be affected.” Qiao Sang patiently instructed: “When performing any skill, the main body should be the most important. If you had focused more attention on your main body just now, you wouldn’t have suddenly bumped into me, nor would your main body have been startled by some external movements and sounds, leading to the dissipation of your clone.”

“Only when the main body is in a stable state can it ensure that the clone is not affected.”

“Ya Ya.”

Ya Ya nodded in agreement from the side.

It had a lot of experience in controlling long-distance clones.

“Qingbao…”

As Qingbao listened to its Yu Beast Master’s words, its attention unconsciously became more focused.

“So, put more of your attention on yourself.” Qiao Sang concluded: “Only then can you train better in this aspect.”

“Qingbao.” Qingbao nodded.

It believed what its Yu Beast Master said.

Just as it was about to conjure a second clone for the third time to catch up with the first clone, Qiao Sang said again:

“Long-distance clone training needs to be done step by step. One clone is enough for you to follow. Controlling two clones simultaneously for long-distance movement is too difficult for you right now. Only by controlling one clone can you currently put more attention on yourself.”

“Qingbao…”

Qingbao showed a hesitant expression.

What if that clone also dissipated?

“Didn’t I tell you before to calm down and take your time?” Qiao Sang said gently: “Even if it doesn’t work today, we still have tomorrow and the day after. Tingbao still has a month of competition time.”

“Qingbao…”

Qingbao was still a little hesitant.

It wanted to know today how Xiao Xunbao and Tingbao managed to accumulate so many points while eating, drinking, and playing.

Qiao Sang saw Qingbao’s hesitation and said seriously: “Don’t forget what I said before, the most important thing is not knowing what Xiao Xunbao and Tingbao have been doing all day, but your clone training.”

“Qingbao, you need to focus on yourself.”

No, it still wanted to know what Xiao Xunbao and the Sixth Brother were doing all day… To maintain its image in its Yu Beast Master’s heart, Qingbao finally nodded:

“Qingbao.”

After speaking, it silently chanted in its heart: Qingbao… Qingbao…

Training the clone is the most important, training the clone is the most important…

Don’t put all your attention on the clone, don’t put all your attention on the clone…

Qingbao took a deep breath, showed a serious expression, and began to adjust its mindset, putting more attention on itself.

Seeing this, Qiao Sang smiled with satisfaction, opened the navigation, and walked towards the mission location.

If Qingbao’s clones successfully took over, and it tracked Xiao Xunbao and Tingbao’s movements for a whole day, then its future training for long-distance clones might not be as diligent as before. Only if Qingbao is interested in training a certain skill will it actively practice without needing reminders.

In this regard, it was a bit like Xiao Xunbao.

Of course, if Qingbao could successfully track them for a whole day with just one clone, that would naturally be the best, as it would indicate a significant breakthrough in its long-distance clone training.

Steel Treasure silently glanced at its Yu Beast Master.

Behind her, Qingbao didn’t lose focus, but followed immediately.

…

Time slowly passed.

However, the sun was still high, making it impossible to tell the approximate time by the sky.

At a certain Pet Beast Hydrotherapy Center.

“Xiao Xunbao?”

Xiao Xunbao was drinking a beverage while comfortably soaking in the pool.

Tingbao was pouring cool water from above on the side, showing an expression of enjoyment.

“Cool, cool.”

At this moment, a Water-type Pet Beast of the lizard species walked over and called out, indicating that their time was up, guests.

Yan Tian Star’s Pet Beast Hydrotherapy Center has always been popular with both people and Pets. To prevent guests from monopolizing the hydrotherapy room all day, the hydrotherapy centers here generally offer time-limited services. Once the time is up, you have to leave, unless you pay extra.

“Xiao Xunbao?”

Xiao Xunbao took a sip of its drink and called out, indicating, “Did time pass so quickly?”

“Cool, cool.”

The lizard-like Water-type Pet Beast called out, indicating, “We have a timer for the time. You came at 2:32 PM, and now it’s 4:32 PM, two hours, no mistake.”

“Ting Ting?!”

Tingbao’s eyes widened, showing an expression of “What,” and called out.

It’s already this late?!

Since frantically looking for opponents to battle yesterday afternoon and rushing back, he had gained some concept of time, knowing that it was not far from the time his Yu Beast Master had mentioned.

“Xiao Xunbao~”

Xiao Xunbao, however, was not as flustered as yesterday. It slowly floated up from the hydrotherapy pool, showing a calm expression, and called out, indicating, “Don’t worry, I’ve already found you a place to look for opponents, boss, you’ll definitely accumulate enough points.”

“Ting Ting.”

Tingbao relaxed upon hearing this.

In his opinion, his boss was very reliable in this regard.

After Xiao Xunbao paid, without another word, its eyes glowed blue, and it led Tingbao out of the hydrotherapy center.

It said it wasn’t in a hurry, but its actions were very honest.

In the corner, the blowing wind suddenly paused, revealing “Qingbao’s” head, which showed a confused expression.

The clone could not think and only knew that the target had suddenly disappeared, unsure how to follow next.

A tiger-type Pet Beast passing by seemed to sense something and turned its head to look.

“Roar! Roar!”

When it saw only a Pet Beast head floating in mid-air, it was startled and instinctively let out a roar.

Invisible sound waves spread out, and the clone dissipated accordingly.

…

Inside a residential building.

Amidst the golden flames, the figure, originally covered in black fur like an ape-like Pet Beast, shed its fur, revealing a human form.

As the flames dispersed, the man eagerly looked at himself and excitedly said:

“Thank you so much! This is my first time encountering a Yu Beast Master who can lift Purification so quickly!”

Qiao Sang casually asked:

“Have you encountered many Yu Beast Masters who can perform Purification?”

The man’s body stiffened for a moment, then he sighed:

“The Pet Beast that cursed me is a Hairy Ghost. I had never seen this species of Pet Beast before. The first time I saw it, I thought it was a strangely colored Rock Climbing Ape, so I just said hello. I didn’t expect it to hold a grudge against me ever since, directly cursing me. It was hard enough to find a Yu Beast Master who could perform Purification to lift the curse, and after some time, it will come looking for me again.”

How miserable… Qiao Sang’s eyes showed a hint of sympathy, and she said:

“It knows where you live, so why don’t you just move to a different place?”

The man gave a bitter smile:

“It doesn’t know where I live, but where I have my shop. My shop is set up there, and it comes to the shop to find me.”

There’s nothing I can do about that… Qiao Sang thought to herself.

“Qingbao!”

Just as she was about to bid farewell, Qingbao let out a shriek.

The man was startled.

“What’s wrong?” Qiao Sang was equally startled and asked.

As soon as she asked, she felt this scene was somewhat familiar, as if it had happened not long ago.

“Qingbao…”

Qingbao showed a wronged expression and called out.

The only clone following Xiao Xunbao had also disappeared.

Qiao Sang: “…”

This scene indeed happened not long ago…

She first said to the quest giver, “Then we’ll be leaving now,” and then led Ya Ya and the others out of the room.

After stepping outside, Qiao Sang slowed her pace and asked:

“How did the clone disappear? Was your energy unstable again just now?”

“Qingbao…”

Qingbao called out pitifully, indicating that its clone had been attacked and that was why it disappeared.

After speaking, it quickly called out again:

“Qingbao!”

Xiao Xunbao and Tingbao were playing the whole time before its clone disappeared!

Saying that, Qingbao added another call:

“Qingbao!”

They were still soaking and playing in the hydrotherapy center!

Qiao Sang: “???”

“They even went to a hydrotherapy center?” Qiao Sang couldn’t help but confirm.

Steel Treasure’s mouth twitched slightly.

Xiao Xunbao was even more playful than it had imagined.

“Ya Ya?”

Ya Ya, on the other hand, looked confused and called out, indicating, “You didn’t see wrong, did you?”

In its opinion, Xiao Xunbao was definitely not like that.

“Qingbao.”

Qingbao held up two short toes and called out with a solemn expression.

It guaranteed by its beastly honor that everything it said was true.

Ya Ya’s mind became a little confused.

Could it be true…

They’re still playing now, and they even went to a hydrotherapy center for a bath. Could it have been like this yesterday too… Qiao Sang’s eyelids twitched slightly. She resisted the urge to immediately go find Xiao Xunbao and Tingbao, picked up her phone, checked the time, and said:

“Never mind them for now, let’s continue with our mission. You can continue tracking them tomorrow.”

“Qingbao!”

Seeing this, Qingbao couldn’t help but call out.

What if Xiao Xunbao takes the Sixth Brother and Space Movement or teleports away again tomorrow?

That’s a good question… Qiao Sang stopped, deep in thought.

“Xia Xia?”

At this moment, Colored Flower Bud Shalala in her arms looked at Qingbao and called out.

Can’t you let the wind tell you their location?

Qingbao was stunned for a moment.

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

Qiao Sang was also stunned after hearing the translation.

“Ya Ya?”

Ya Ya, on the other hand, looked confused and called out.

Can wind also speak?

“Xia Xia.”

Qiao Sang quickly looked at Colored Flower Bud Shalala; she also wanted to know.

“Xia Xia.”

Colored Flower Bud Shalala called out, indicating that wind cannot speak, but wind expresses itself in its own way, just as flowers and plants also express themselves in their own way.

Saying that, it looked at Qingbao and called out: “Xia Xia.”

In my memory, you can communicate with the wind, just like I communicate with my flowers and plants.

“Ya Ya!”

Ya Ya understood, its eyes gleaming as it looked at Qingbao and called out.

So you’re that amazing!

Qingbao was a little lost, it didn’t have this information in its inherited memories.

“Steel Chief.” Steel Treasure translated in her mind.

Communicating with the wind, just like Colored Flower Bud Shalala communicates with plants… Qiao Sang’s heart unconsciously quickened upon hearing this. She looked at Qingbao and said with anticipation:

“Qingbao, let’s try it now! Let the wind tell you the location of Xiao Xunbao and Tingbao!”

“Qingbao!”

Qingbao looked at its Yu Beast Master, showing a serious and slightly excited expression, and nodded.

Then, it closed its eyes.

After about ten-odd seconds, the surrounding area suddenly became windy without any apparent cause.

…

At the same time.

Charging station.

“Ting Ting.”

Tingbao stopped one electric-type Pet Beast after another that wore a point recorder.

When the electric-type Pet Beast saw Tingbao’s appearance and hesitated, preparing to refuse, Xiao Xunbao on the side showed an exaggerated worried expression and shouted loudly:

“Xun!”

Calm down! Don’t challenge six opponents in one match!

Tingbao was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Xiao Xunbao with a bewildered expression.

Didn’t you tell me to challenge six opponents in one match?

Xiao Xunbao secretly winked at him, then continued to dissuade him with eyes full of worry:

“Xun!”

Think about it carefully! Although you are a Dragon-type Pet Beast, you just evolved to intermediate level. Challenging six opponents at once is absolutely impossible!

Tingbao: “???”

Just as Tingbao was about to ask Xiao Xunbao about his confusion, the electric-type Pet Beast, who had been hesitating, suddenly confidently called out:

“Chuan Chuan!”

I accept your battle invitation!

After speaking, as if afraid Tingbao would go back on his word, it quickly pressed the point recorder.

A virtual screen appeared above it:

[Species: Lightning Serpent]

[Level: Intermediate]

[Points: 232]

[Ranking: 1000+]

Tingbao was stunned for a moment, then realized what was going on and looked at Xiao Xunbao with admiration.

“Xun!”

Xiao Xunbao did not show a proud expression, but rather an anxious one, and called out.

There’s still time! Don’t look for any other opponents! You just evolved, you won’t be able to win!

As soon as the words fell, the other Pet Beasts who had been hesitating called out, indicating their willingness to accept the challenge, and then eagerly pressed their point recorders.

Some electric-type Pet Beasts who were charging even called out, asking if they could also join the battle once they finished charging.

Tingbao stared blankly at the scene before him, then his gaze towards Xiao Xunbao instantly shifted from admiration to adoration.

Xiao Xunbao grinned at Tingbao, then disappeared behind the electric-type Pet Beasts who were eagerly accepting the challenge, deeply concealing its功与名 (achievements and fame).

Before long, a Pet Beast wearing a referee badge appeared nearby and called out: “Li Li.”

After speaking, it pressed the referee’s wristband.

In an instant, a translucent Barrier enveloped the surroundings.

The electric-type Pet Beasts around who didn’t get a battle slot sighed and consciously withdrew outside the Barrier. (End of this chapter)
