Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 233: There’s a pervert nearby
The next morning, Qiao Sang woke up and went into the bathroom to wash up.
As soon as she picked up her toothbrush, Little Treasure Hunting Ghost suddenly appeared next to the mirror.
“Xiao Xunbao!”
Little Treasure Hunting Ghost excitedly shook the yellow rings on its two short claws.
Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously looked at Little Treasure Hunting Ghost’s head.
It was gone…
Qiao Sang took a slight breath, forcing herself to calm down.
“You used Ghost-type fire to split the ring into two?” Qiao Sang asked, trembling.
Although the fact was already before her eyes, she still wanted to confirm some things.
It was like a parent repeatedly looking at their child’s Tsinghua University admission letter but still asking, “You got into Tsinghua?!”
Qiao Sang was feeling exactly like this now.
She couldn’t believe that it hadn’t even been a week since Little Treasure Hunting Ghost developed Ghost-type fire, and it had already forged the ring into two—was this even scientific?!
“Xiao Xunbao~”
Little Treasure Hunting Ghost happily nodded, shaking the rings.
As Little Treasure Hunting Ghost nodded, Qiao Sang’s little heart skipped several beats.
A genius!
This was a true genius!
She had never heard of any Treasure Hunting Ghost that could forge two rings so quickly!
If talent could be graded, this would be maxed out!
Qiao Sang suddenly thought of something and asked, “Since your rings are so much smaller, will you not be able to store things in them anymore?”
Judging by the size of these rings, it seemed unlikely that even a bottle of milk could fit inside.
“Xun~”
Little Treasure Hunting Ghost grinned, took off the rings from its claws, and tossed them upwards.
The rings rapidly grew larger in mid-air, quickly returning to their original size, which could be worn on its head.
“Awesome.” Qiao Sang praised, giving a thumbs up.
Good, good, she almost thought she’d have to carry everything herself from now on…
“Xun~”
Just as Qiao Sang was about to continue brushing her teeth, Little Treasure Hunting Ghost let out a cry.
“What’s wrong?” Qiao Sang turned and asked.
“Xiao Xunbao~” Little Treasure Hunting Ghost spun around, then stopped and looked at its Yu Beast Master with expectant eyes.
Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment: “You want to evolve?”
“Xiao Xunbao!”
Little Treasure Hunting Ghost happily nodded.
Qiao Sang began to think seriously; Little Treasure Hunting Ghost’s rings had now split into two, and its internal energy Point had also exceeded the maximum energy Point range, so it could indeed begin to evolve.
Thinking of this, Qiao Sang said, “Work hard to train Hypnosis to Profound Meaning, and I think you’ll be able to evolve soon.”
Because Little Treasure Hunting Ghost couldn’t create clones, even though it had been practicing skill releases, its proficiency progress was much slower than that of Ya Bao.
However, even so, its skill proficiency was steadily increasing every day.
At the current rate, Hypnosis would definitely reach the Profound Meaning realm within a month.
Qiao Sang always felt that letting Little Treasure Hunting Ghost train a certain skill’s proficiency to Profound Meaning before evolving would better stimulate its potential.
When Hypnosis reached Profound Meaning, and Little Treasure Hunting Ghost evolved then, its sense of accomplishment would also double.
Otherwise, if Little Treasure Hunting Ghost knew that she could use her Gold Finger to add Point to make it evolve, with Little Treasure Hunting Ghost’s personality, it would probably slack off in training every day.
“Xun!”
If its Yu Beast Master said it could evolve, then it definitely could! Little Treasure Hunting Ghost had no doubts and cried out excitedly.
Then it teleported to the courtyard to find ants and immediately began practicing Hypnosis.
…
After breakfast, Qiao Sang, carrying a backpack containing Water Luyana, sat on Ya Bao and set off for school.
As soon as she stepped out of the community, she saw a slender figure waving at her from afar.
“Little sister.”
When the figure approached, Qiao Sang recognized her as an office worker living nearby; she had been seen almost every day among the crowd who gathered to watch and photograph Ya Bao some time ago.
She only quieted down a bit after Little Treasure Hunting Ghost appeared.
“Xun!”
Little Treasure Hunting Ghost clearly recognized who this person was too, and quickly took off its rings, pulled out a mirror and a pen from inside, and began touching up the scar on its face.
This time, when the woman saw Little Treasure Hunting Ghost, she didn’t choose to walk around but hesitated, then approached Qiao Sang and warned:
“You should go home early after school recently and don’t wander around casually; there’s a pervert nearby.”
Qiao Sang was stunned: “A pervert?”
“Yes, a pervert, a man, a bit fat, with a face full of acne, hiding in alleys and specifically targeting single women,” the woman said with lingering fear. “I ran into him yesterday, but he got away too fast, otherwise, I would have sent him to the police station!”
“Thank you, I’ll be careful.” Qiao Sang thanked her.
The woman chuckled: “If you really want to thank me, let me Pet Yan Ling Dog.”
Qiao Sang: “…”
“Ya…”
Ya Bao looked helpless.
Another human trying to get its attention.
Qiao Sang continued on her way to school, but just after crossing two streets, the sky suddenly darkened, and then it started to rain.
Passersby nearby frantically ran, covering their heads.
However, they didn’t run far before they lowered their hands with surprise on their faces.
Qiao Sang looked forward, her expression a bit bewildered; the rain’s range was only about 6 meters, and she could see the end of it at a glance.
“Ya…”
Ya Bao, drenched by the rain, pouted and rushed forward.
But even though the rain’s range was only about 6 meters, it couldn’t run out of it.
Qiao Sang looked up, even more confused; the dark cloud above her seemed to be following her consciously, which was very strange.
Li Songhai, hiding in the shadows, stared intently at Qiao Sang’s movements. His eyes were bloodshot, indicating he hadn’t slept well.
“Chi Chi~”
A Pet next to him, mostly blue with a blue-gray belly and a pair of black and blue wings, cried out.
“Wait a little longer.” Li Songhai said hoarsely.
He hadn’t slept for two days, and his mind was tense; he should have rested well before acting, but the anger of being deceived and yesterday’s failed stakeout made him just want to quickly get Water Luyana and leave this cursed place.
As long as the little girl took an umbrella out of her bag or used the bag to shield herself from the rain, he would have Rain Chi Yan rush out and snatch the bag.
With Rain Chi Yan’s speed, the little girl would definitely not be able to catch up.
Ultimately, he was still soft-hearted, only letting this little girl get wet for a while… Li Songhai stared at Qiao Sang with bloodshot eyes.
The next second, his eyes suddenly widened.
He saw the Ghost-type Pet, which he had initially mistaken for a Superpower System Pet, take off the rings from its claws and throw them into the air, where they quickly grew larger.
Then, this Ghost-type Pet rummaged inside with its claws and pulled out… an umbrella.
Li Songhai was dumbfounded: “What in the world?!”
At this moment, Ya Bao’s ears twitched.
Qiao Sang opened the umbrella and looked at the dark cloud moving with her overhead, feeling that something was not quite right.
Why did it feel like the rain was following her…
Qiao Sang inexplicably recalled that saying: all unnatural phenomena are caused by extraordinary beings. Could it be that an extraordinary being had targeted her?
