Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 1185
1185. Chapter 1180 Steaming State (Two in One)
“Meimei,”
called out Jeriroka, who looked like Meichouni.
The leading “Grass Cow” seemed to realize something and slammed on the brakes again.
The herd of Grass Cows following behind it braked immediately.
The leading “Grass Cow” said nothing, simply motioning to the side.
The Grass Cows behind it understood and scattered.
The “Grass Cow” stopped running and moved towards them, its eyes almost hidden by the green leaves, but Qiao Sang still felt like he was being watched.
As the “Grass Cow” approached, the air around them seemed to freeze.
Qiao Sang, Mikala, and Yabao all felt a surge of pressure.
At that moment, the flowers in the pots swayed slightly, as if in the breeze.
The oppressive feeling that enveloped them dissipated.
Qiao Sang and Mikala breathed a sigh of relief, the sense of danger from being watched by a terrifying being gone.
The “Grass Cow” narrowed its eyes, examining the two humans and the pets before it. Then, with a subtle glance at the flowers in the pot, it called out,
“Li Li?”
If there had been only a 90% chance that the hornless grass cow before it was Li Oyas, now with that call, Qiao Sang was almost certain it was the Li Oyas they were looking for.
“Meimei,”
called out Jeriroka, resembling Meichouni.
Then, its eyes glowed green.
A green barrier spread downward, enveloping it.
The pets that had been staring at it froze for a moment, their expressions of confusion on their faces, but they quickly averted their gazes with disinterest and returned to their playful pursuits.
The flowers in the pot transformed back into the form of Xia Lala, leaped out, and landed on the ground.
The “Grass Cow” raised its left front paw and pulled away the leaves covering its body, revealing what lay beneath.
A crimson body, streaked with black flames. Its face, nose, and belly were all white. A tuft of red whiskers clung to its chin. A black ribbon-like substance swirled around its tail. It wore a miniature miniaturizing bracelet.
It was none other than Li Ou Ya Si.
“Ya Ya!”
Ya Bao exclaimed excitedly at the sight.
Li Ou Ya Si glanced over, his head tilted slightly, a look of aloofness on his face.
It thought it was perfectly normal for other fire-type pets to be excited upon seeing him.
After all, he was a legendary fire-type divine beast.
“Ya Ya!”
Ya Bao looked at his beastmaster and exclaimed happily, indicating that this was the real Li Ou Ya Si. Now, he could finally have eye discharge.
… Li Ou Ya Si’s proud expression froze.
“It’s eye discharge,” Qiao Sang corrected.
“Li Li?”
Li Ou Ya Si’s expression returned to normal. He looked at the colorful buds and called out inquiringly, asking who these creatures were.
“Xia Xia…”
Xia Lala, the colorful flower bud, gave Li Ou Ya Si a complicated look and began to tell her story.
They had come from a hundred years later…
Li Ou Ya Si listened silently, his initial indifference turning into disbelief.
A look of astonishment crossed his face, and he called out,
“Li Li?”
A hundred years later, only a spirit remained? How could it be possible!
“Jeri…”
Jeri Roca sighed and called out, expressing his own disbelief.
“Li Li!”
Li Ou Ya Si refused to believe it.
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
“Xia Xia.”
Xia Lala, the colorful flower bud, offered no explanation, but instead called out to her future self.
Xia Lala, resembling a fresh cattail, plucked the resistant flower from her head and transformed back into her original form.
“!!!” Li Ou Ya Si was stunned for a moment, then cried out in shock,
“Li Li!”
How could there still be another Xia Lala!
“Jeri…”
Jeri Roca, overcome with grief, began to cry silently.
“Because it’s Shalala from a hundred years later.” Qiao Sang, having listened to Gangbao’s translation in his mind, naturally understood what Li Ou Ya Si was talking about and explained.
Shalala from a hundred years later?
Li Ou Ya Si stared at Shalala from a hundred years ago with a look of astonishment, his expression suddenly frozen. He turned to look at Shalala in the colorful flower buds and called out stiffly,
“Li Li?”
How come you’re only in your primary form after a hundred years?
“Jeri…”
Jeri Roca’s tears began to fall even more.
“Xia Xia,”
Shalala in the colorful flower buds called out calmly.
Li Ou Ya Si unconsciously took a step back, a look of disbelief on his face. Then, his gaze fell again on Shalala from a hundred years later, his expression drooping, his eyes filled with sadness.
He hadn’t been this upset since he first learned that he would be gone a hundred years later.
The atmosphere was suddenly heavy and sad.
“Xia Xia?”
At this moment, Shalala in the colorful flower buds called out, asking if he had saved any Lihuo Crystals.
The solemn atmosphere dissipated.
Ya Bao’s expression showed anticipation.
“Lili.”
Li Ou Ya Si’s sadness subsided, and he let out a cry with an expression that said “Are you kidding me?”
Why was he collecting his eye mucus for no reason?
“Xia Xia.”
Xia La La with colorful buds called out calmly, expressing the hope that you can secrete Lihuo Crystal in the next few days.
“Lili.”
Li Ou Ya Si frowned and called out in dissatisfaction, saying that he was about to die, so why did he keep Lihuo Crystal on purpose?
As he spoke, he glanced at Ya Bao.
He knew that it was this little guy who needed his Lihuo Crystal.
“Xia Xia.”
The colorful bud’s Xia Lala remained calm.
This was a deal it had made, and it hoped you would accept.
“Steel Chief,”
Gang Bao translated in his mind. “
No, your deal with me was just to help contact Li Ou Ya Si…” Qiao Sang glanced at the century-old Xia Lala with a complicated expression.
“Li Li.”
Li Ou Ya Si was silent for two seconds, then called out, saying, “I understand. Come get it from me in a couple of days. “
With that, he draped the leaf prop around himself.
“Steel Chief,”
Gang Bao translated.
Qiao Sang breathed a sigh of relief.
The Li Ou Ya Si before him had a distinctly different personality from his spirit form a century later, but once it agreed, it probably wouldn’t go back on its word.
“Li Li.”
Li Ou Ya Si looked at the colorful bud’s Xia Lala and called out, indicating that it would leave Menzhou and call it when the time came.
Leaving Menzhou? Qiao Sang was stunned by Gang Bao’s translation in his mind.
“Xia Xia?”
The colorful bud’s Xia Lala called out, a puzzled expression on her face.
Leaving Menzhou for what?
“Lili,”
Li Ouyas called out with a look of utter disbelief.
Since he was destined to die in Menzhou in the future, he couldn’t stay here. He didn’t want to wait for death.
“Lili?”
Then, as if a thought had occurred to him, he looked at Mikala and called out, explaining how he had died.
He could sense that the other human was the stronger of the two.
Mikala was stunned, not realizing Li Ouyas was speaking to him.
“Pen-Pen,”
Peng Jiamei called out from the side, translating for the first time.
However, Li Ouyas was already growing impatient, his gaze fixed on the other human.
“Your spirit didn’t specify the specifics,” Qiao Sang said immediately. “
I should have contracted a pet that could bond and evolve…” Mikala felt a moment of exhaustion.
It was rare for a legendary pet to approach her for a chat, and she had missed it all…
“Lili,”
Li Ouyas called out, understanding, and then turned and left.
“Wait!” Qiao Sang called out.
Li Ou Ya Si stopped and turned to look.
“If you don’t mind, I’d like us to travel together,” Qiao Sang said seriously.
On the one hand, if Li Ou Ya Si began to produce eye discharge, she could immediately obtain it.
On the other hand, she also wanted to know exactly what happened a hundred years ago that led to the death of a fire-type divine beast.
She didn’t believe that Li Ou Ya Si’s departure from Menzhou would change the outcome.
Mikaela remained silent.
Their purpose in traveling back a hundred years was to obtain the Li Fire Crystal. If they could follow Li Ou Ya Si, it would naturally be the best.
“Li…”
Li Ou Ya Si showed an impatient expression and was about to say that it minded.
“Xia Xia,”
the colorful bud of Xia La La suddenly called out, indicating that it would also come along.
“Li Li,”
Li Ou Ya Si’s impatience faded, a look of compromise appeared on his face, and he called out, saying that if they wanted to go together, then go together.
With that, he turned and left.
The green barrier passed through it as if it didn’t exist.
Little Xunbao showed a curious expression, preparing to pass through like Li Oyas.
However, he bumped into it head-on, and the green barrier rippled like water.
“Xunxun…”
Little Xunbao touched his head.
“Xiaxia,”
the colorful bud of Xia Lala called out.
Xia Lala then transformed back into her fresh cattail form.
Jeriroka wiped her tears and sobbed as she removed the barrier.
Mikala immediately followed.
Then, Qiao Sang said,
“Teacher, I’ll have Little Xunbao go to the hotel to pick up the Dragon King and the others.”
The Dragon King and Tingbao could both retrieve the Beast Taming Codex, but now that there was a Primordial Ice Jellyfish, they had to make a special trip.
He almost forgot about the Dragon King… Mikala’s body stiffened slightly, then recovered and said,
“Okay.”
Qiao Sang looked at Little Xunbao.
“Xunxun~”
Before he could say anything, Little Xunbao nodded and called out, indicating that he would go immediately.
Then, his eyes glowed blue, and he disappeared.
Despite having no navigation system, it had memorized the directions from here to the hotel.
Before long, Little Xunbao returned to their original location with Dragon King, Tingbao, and the original ice jellyfish.
They were only a few dozen meters away from Oyas.
“Ya Ya!”
Yabao took two steps forward, turned, and called out to his beastmaster, signaling for quicker progress.
“Coming,” Qiao Sang said, picking up his pace and catching up.
“Xia…”
Xia Lala, resembling a fresh-flowered cattail, cried out, then realized something, quickly covered her mouth, and quickly followed.
Qiao Sang heard the noise, stopped, bent down, and picked her up.
The golden buds around Xia Lala’s neck twitched unconsciously.
As if sensing something, Xia Lala, with the colorful buds, turned to see her future self, obedient and somewhat happy in a human’s arms.
She paused, her gaze fixed on the girl.
“Reli?”
Jeriroka called from the side.
“Xia Xia,”
Xia Lala, with the colorful buds, shook her head and looked away.
…
Five hours later.
A full moon hung high in the sky,
its cool glow illuminating the quiet valley.
Suddenly, a clamor erupted.
Many pets began to flee.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh… A figure appeared in the valley, darting wildly. A faint red glow could be seen within.
High in the sky, Yabao followed closely, flapping its wings.
“Does Li Ou Ya Si love running so much? He’s been running for five hours without a break,” Qiao Sang observed, glancing at the time on her phone.
Mikaela, hovering nearby, explained,
“Li Ou Ya Si is a pet that loves running.”
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have noticed something was wrong.
“Gurgle…”
Yabao’s stomach growled.
“Want to eat something first?” Qiao Sang suggested.
“Ya Ya,”
Yabao barked, indicating no.
He was afraid of losing Li Ou Ya Si.
“Xun Xun~”
Little Xun Bao barked, stuffing a snack into his mouth, suggesting that if he lost him, he could just call.
Yabao didn’t respond and continued running.
The evolutionary materials were just below, and it didn’t want to make any mistakes.
“Steel Chief,”
Steel called out calmly, suggesting that if its stiffness didn’t bother it, it could carry everyone and let Yabao rest.
But if they complained about its stiffness, it wouldn’t go unacceptable. It was too vindictive… Oh no, Steel would hear… Qiao Sang’s body stiffened slightly.
Steel glanced silently at his beastmaster.
“Yabao!”
Yabao called out, flapping its wings as it followed, signaling that it wasn’t necessary. Just stay on me.
“Xia Xia,”
Xia Lala, the colorful bud, suddenly called down, listening to the conversation.
The grass and trees in the valley swayed.
The running figure braked abruptly, stopping abruptly.
“Xia Xia,”
Xia Lala, the colorful bud, called out, signaling that we should descend.
Whether Xia Lala a hundred years ago or a hundred years later, she was so gentle… Qiao Sang sighed inwardly.
At this critical moment, Shalala suddenly spoke. She knew it was because she’d heard Yabao’s stomach growling.
“Yabao!”
Yabao cried out, running down.
Mikala, Pengamei, and the Dragon King followed closely behind.
“Lili?”
Li Ouyas looked at the dozen or so figures descending before him and called out, asking what was wrong.
“Xiaxia.”
Shalala, in the colorful buds, detached herself from Yabao and called out, signaling a break.
“Lili,”
Li Ouyas said with a look of displeasure.
It hadn’t been so long, and she was already resting.
“Xiaxia.”
Shalala, in the colorful buds, called out calmly, indicating she was hungry.
Li Ouyas’s discontent faded, and he sighed and called out,
“Lili.”
Rest then.
With that, he pulled back the leaf props draped over his body, revealing his true form, and crept to the ground.
“Gurgle…”
Yabao slowly shrank, his stomach growling again.
“Xunxun~”
Little Xunbao removed the ring and quickly pulled out Yabao’s exclusive energy pills and some tree fruits.
Qiao Sang sat cross-legged and asked,
“Where are we now?”
Her phone, navigation, and location were useless; she had no idea where she was.
“Zhengzhou,” said Mikaela. (End of this chapter)
