Beast Taming: Starting From Zero
Chapter 269: rain
Qiao Sang fell into a deep confusion, watching Water Luyana run off without a hint of sadness.
Another failure?
Where did the problem lie?
After thinking for a long time, Qiao Sang suddenly realized that the problem to be solved now was not how to make Water Luyana experience a painful breakup, but how to have a breakup…
…
Time passed by minute by minute.
Soon, night fell.
In the evening, Water Luyana still hadn’t had a breakup.
Qiao Sang held the scissors and, with an incredibly heavy heart, said to Ya Bao, “I’ve thought about it. The fundamental reason Water Luyana likes you is because you’re too handsome. As long as your image changes a little, Water Luyana will definitely have a breakup.”
“Qunbao…” Little Qunbao nodded in agreement from the side.
“Ya!”
Ya Bao looked at the scissors with tears in its eyes, shaking its head frantically.
“Don’t be afraid, your fur will grow back quickly,” Qiao Sang said gently, slowly approaching with the scissors.
“Ya!”
Ya Bao retreated step by step.
Until it was backed against the wall, and seeing the scissors about to fall on it, Ya Bao’s eyes welled up with tears, revealing a desperate expression.
What did Water Luyana’s breakup have to do with its fur?!
Would it not be handsome if its fur was shaved?!
…
At the same time.
In the courtyard.
Water Luyana was earnestly trying to condense the Water Mist bit by bit.
Before long, the Water Mist dissipated.
“Lulu…” Water Luyana showed a dejected expression.
“What are you practicing?” Yang Du walked over and said with a smile, “Perhaps I can help you.”
Most people who take on tasks have an unwritten rule: during the task period, they will not interfere with anything else in the task giver’s life, except for matters related to the task itself.
So, during this time, Yang Du basically stayed in his room after returning and didn’t come out.
But the task giver said that today might be the last day of the task, so Yang Du couldn’t sit still.
Water Luyana looked at the human in front of it, swung its tail, and its dejected expression turned to arrogance, then it turned to leave.
“I guess you’re trying to condense the energy of Water Mist,” Yang Du said.
He was a B-level Beast Tamer, after all, and he had the necessary discernment when it came to Yu Beast.
“Lulu.”
Water Luyana stopped, turned its head, and looked wary.
Yang Du smiled, “You don’t need to be so wary of me. I just want to help you. I might be leaving after today.”
“Zeze.” The Deep Sea Swamp Monster beside him nodded, indicating that its Yu Beast Master was truly a good person.
“If you don’t believe me, I can have Da Dou help you,” Yang Du said, pointing to the Deep Sea Swamp Monster, “It also knows Water Mist, and it understands most Water-type skills quite well.”
“Zeze.” The Deep Sea Swamp Monster nodded again.
“Lulu?”
Water Luyana’s deep eyes looked at the Deep Sea Swamp Monster.
Can it use Rain Prayer?
“Zeze.” The Deep Sea Swamp Monster nodded.
Although Yang Du didn’t understand Water Luyana’s meaning, he understood his Pet’s answer. He smiled confidently, “It learned Rain Prayer nine years ago.”
“Lulu…”
Nine years ago?!
Water Luyana showed a shocked expression; the time it learned Rain Prayer was even older than its own age!
Yang Du seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said, “Today is almost over, and I don’t know when your Yu Beast Master will make it rain.”
“Lulu?”
Water Luyana looked at the human in front of it with confusion.
Perhaps the question in Water Luyana’s eyes was too obvious; Yang Du understood its meaning without the Deep Sea Swamp Monster translating. He explained:
“It’s Rain Prayer. I took on a task to come here, saying they wanted to ensure it could rain at any time. But I’ve been here so long and haven’t been asked to make it rain once. Your Yu Beast Master said today was the last day, but it’s already dark and they still haven’t asked for rain. I don’t know what’s going on.”
At this point, he recalled snippets of what happened today and added, “Your Yu Beast Master seemed a bit strange today, and so did the Yan Ling Dog and Treasure Hunting Fairy.”
Yang Du realized he had strayed from the topic and smiled, “Let’s not talk about that. If you want to learn Rain Prayer, you can also have Da Dou teach you. If you learn it in the future, and your Yu Beast Master still wants it to rain at any time, they won’t need to specially post a task outside.”
“Lulu…”
Water Luyana showed a puzzled expression.
Wanting it to rain at any time, why?
Water Luyana was not slow-witted; on the contrary, it was very sensitive to certain things, able to detect even the slightest disturbance.
This was also the main reason Water Luyana could escape from the Ancient Mist region to the Yuhua region without being caught.
Able to rain at any time…
Rain?
Rain…
Rain!
Dormant memories suddenly flooded back, and Water Luyana’s eyes widened abruptly.
“If you want to become stronger, the most effective way is to evolve. I’ve looked into it; if you want to evolve, you need to experience the feeling of a breakup on a rainy day. Only the emotional power that surges from within can prompt your evolution.”
“That’s why I showed you these videos, to understand what type of Pet you like.”
“Is this one okay?”
“What about this one?”
“Ya?”
The memory scene abruptly stopped as Ya Bao’s head poked in.
Water Luyana’s body swayed.
Ya Bao! It’s an actor! From the very beginning, it was here to deceive emotions! Everything was fake!
“Lulu!!!”
With a heart-wrenching cry, a white light enveloped Water Luyana’s entire body.
Yang Du stood dumbfounded, mouth agape, completely bewildered: “Holy crap! What’s going on?!”
Evolution light?
It just evolved while we were chatting?!
Is that reasonable?! Is that scientific?!
“Qiao Sang! Qiao Sang!” Yang Du came back to his senses and quickly ran inside, shouting loudly.
“What’s wrong?” Qiao Sang stopped what she was doing when she heard the commotion, opened the door, and asked.
“Ya…” Ya Bao breathed a sigh of relief behind her.
“Water Luyana evolved! Go take a look!” Yang Du said excitedly.
“Evolved?!” Qiao Sang’s expression froze for a moment, then she suddenly widened her eyes and dashed towards the courtyard.
As she ran, she didn’t forget to shout, “Rain! Quickly, rain! Rain right now!”
“Okay! Okay!” Although Yang Du didn’t know why, he always knew his task was to make it rain.
He didn’t run to the courtyard but entered the yu beast codex with his consciousness from where he stood.
“Zeze…”
The Deep Sea Swamp Monster, which had been in the courtyard, seemed to sense something, lifted its head, and let out a cry.
Dark, thick clouds immediately appeared in the sky. In an instant, raindrops poured down frantically, making a “pat-pat” sound as they fell continuously.
Qiao Sang ran into the courtyard and saw the pouring rain and the white light slowly dissipating.
It really evolved… Qiao Sang looked at Water Luyana, enveloped in white light in the courtyard, feeling an extreme sense of unreality.
She couldn’t understand. She had experimented all day today, tried every method, but Water Luyana hadn’t evolved.
Just now, she hadn’t done anything, just stayed in the room, yet Water Luyana evolved. Why?
Qiao Sang didn’t ponder this question for long, because the white light before her dissipated…
