Beast Taming: Starting From Zero - Chapter 1299
1299. Chapter 1294 Dancing Luck Duoduo (Two in One)
“Momo?”
The Dragon King was stunned for a moment and called out.
Why was this guy right under his butt?
“Xunxun…”
Little Xunbao silently took two steps back.
Could it be his fault again…
Poor Jisdan… Qiao Sang mourned for Jisdan for a second, then said in a complicated tone,
“You just happened to be where Jisdan was rolling.”
After saying this, she called out,
“Lubao.”
“Bingdi,”
Lubao called out, but instead of approaching, she shone a faint blue light from the wall onto Jisdan.
“Jis…”
Under the faint blue light, Jisdan slowly woke up.
“Jis!”
It opened its eyes, saw the huge face of the Dragon King, and was startled. It quickly jumped down and rolled to the corner.
Only then did Mikaela notice the black energy emanating from Little Xunbao. Frowning slightly, he asked,
“Why is the curse energy leaking out?”
“It’s more than just leaking out,” Qiao Sang couldn’t help but grumble. “Even without casting a curse, the curse energy within it can unconsciously curse surrounding creatures.”
Upon hearing this, the Dragon King glanced at Little Xunbao, who was emitting a black aura, and took a large step back.
Little Xunbao: “…”
“Didn’t you ask Night Ring King to cast a curse?” Mikaela asked again.
“Yes,” Qiao Sang said helplessly. “I had Yabao follow Little Xunbao the entire day so he could cast a curse, but the curse was so powerful that Yabao didn’t even have time to purify it before something bad happened.”
“Ya Ya,”
Yabao nodded in agreement.
Is it too late to purify the Sacred Fire within her? Could the ghost-type pet that condensed the Curse Crystal be even higher in level than she imagined? Mikaela pondered for a few seconds, then said seriously,
“A ghost-type pet that condensed the Curse Crystal is likely very high in level. This phenomenon does occur when the curse power within it is excessive. The Night Ring King’s only curse is the Curse of Bad Luck. The curse power that emanates outwards transforms into the power of the Bad Luck Curse, cursing all nearby creatures.”
As she finished speaking, she noticed Qiao Sang and Ya Bao leaning against the wall and couldn’t help but smile,
“It seems you’ve already realized it.”
“Because Ya Bao just saw the curse power within me…” Qiao Sang briefly recounted the unfortunate incident that had befallen him since meeting Xiao Xunbao.
After listening, Mikaela suddenly asked, “What level is the Night Ring King’s Bad Luck Curse now?”
As a teacher teaching one-on-one, she should be familiar with the skill levels of each of her students’ pets. However, Qiao Sang’s situation was unique. Her pet consistently awakened more skills with each evolution than other pets.
Moreover, her pet’s skills would noticeably improve every once in a while. Furthermore, since she hadn’t participated in any particularly important large-scale competitions, she wasn’t entirely sure about the lesser-used skills of her prodigy student’s pet.
“Perfect,” Qiao Sang said.
On the way to Flame Sky Star, Little Xunbao had either been practicing Shadow Penetration or practicing the Bad Luck Curse on ants he’d caught from nowhere. While not yet at the ultimate level, it had already reached perfection. A
perfect Bad Luck Curse?… Mikaela naturally retreated to a seat on the sofa, out of the reach of the black energy, and said,
“If that’s the case, I suggest you reclaim Night Ring King and place it in the Beast Taming Code. If it’s unconsciously emitting curse power, it might hinder your search for the Hidden Ghost Grass.”
“Xunxun!”
Hearing this, Little Xunbao quickly waved his paws and barked.
He didn’t want to enter the Beast Taming Code!
Qiao Sang pondered for a moment, then said, “But among Yabao and the others, only Little Xunbao can see the Hidden Ghost Grass.”
“Xunxun!”
Little Xunbao nodded repeatedly.
That’s right, that’s right!
“I’ll let Yabao stay with Xiao Xunbao so that it can cast curses more easily.” Qiao Sang continued.
What he meant was that he should not put Xiao Xunbao into the Beast Taming Codex.
It was still unknown when the power of the curse would be completely absorbed. If it was too strong, it might take more than a month to absorb it all. He couldn’t let Xiao Xunbao stay in the Beast Taming Codex for a whole month.
“Ya Ya.”
Yabao nodded, indicating that he was willing to accompany Xiao Xunbao.
The task of his own beastmaster was to find some grass. Since only Xiao Xunbao could see this grass, he naturally had to accompany him and complete the task.
“Xunxun…”
Xiao Xunbao looked at Yabao with a touched expression.
“What are you going to do tonight?” asked Michaela.
Qiao Sang thought for a moment and said,
“Let Yabao purify us every morning when we wake up.”
“A perfect-level bad luck curse won’t let you sleep so soundly,” Michaela said slowly. “Once, someone was cursed by a ghost-type pet while sleeping. In the middle of the night, a lamp fell on them.”
“There’s also been cases where someone was cursed and an earthquake occurred in the area they were in at night.”
“Earthquakes?” Qiao Sang was shocked.
“Later, after investigation, it was found that the area had earthquake foreshadowing, but the curse brought it forward,” Michaela said.
“Why are you so sure the earthquake was caused by the curse?” Qiao Sang asked.
Michaela said calmly,
“Because after the earthquake, everyone in that area was fine, except for the cursed person who broke a leg.”
So tragic… Qiao Sang looked at Xiao Xunbao.
“Xunxun…”
Little Xunbao pouted, tears welling up in his eyes, and cried out, indicating that he should go to the Beast Taming Hall…
The evening was usually his free play time, and he didn’t want to go to the Beast Taming Hall at all, but when he thought about his own Beast Tamer breaking his leg because of him, he felt that he should still go to the Beast Taming Hall.
He thought so, but when he thought about staying in the Beast Taming Hall for a long time at night, Little Xunbao couldn’t help but want to cry.
“Little Xunbao, you should go out and look for things at night, and come back in the morning.” Qiao Sang said.
“Xunxun!”
The tears that were about to fall from little Xunbao’s eyes faltered as he cried out excitedly, declaring that he would definitely search outside and return in the morning.
“The curse’s power only affects surrounding creatures, not the creature itself.” Qiao Sang looked at Teacher Mikaela and said, “I think it’s fine for little Xunbao to search alone.”
Mikaela said solemnly, “Leaving a pet emitting cursed power out searching alone is very dangerous. No one knows if there will be people or pets where it’s searching.”
That’s true… Qiao Sang fell silent.
“Xunxun…”
Little Xunbao’s mouth pursed as he realized something, and tears welled up in his eyes again as he cried out.
He should stay in the Beast Taming Codex…
“Ya Ya.”
At this moment, Yabao called out, offering to accompany little Xunbao outside to search for that grass that night.
“Xunxun…”
Big Brother Yabao… Little Xunbao looked at Yabao with tears in his eyes.
“But you probably won’t be able to hold out that night,” Qiao Sang said.
“Bingdi,”
Lubao called out, offering to accompany him and help cast the healing light to keep Yabao awake.
“Xunxun…”
The third child… Little Xunbao looked at Lubao with tears in his eyes.
Qiao Sang thought
for a moment and said, “Okay, let’s do it this way for now, but I’ll go with you tonight.” The mission only lasted a month. Even if she went out every night to search, it would only mean a month without sleep. She hadn’t been there before.
Furthermore, the mission was so short that she really needed to spend more time out searching.
“Xunxun!”
Little Xunbao looked at her beastmaster, emotion finally overflowing, and she floated towards him with a look of deep emotion.
“Stop!” Qiao Sang saw this and quickly raised her hand to stop him.
“Xunxun…”
Little Xunbao paused, a look of grievance on his face.
Then, a thought struck him, and he called out to Yabao:
“Xunxun~” “
Brother Yabao, I’m going to curse you.
” “Ya Ya,”
Yabao called out, indicating that he could just come.
Little Xunbao’s eyes glowed purple as he looked at Yabao.
Suddenly, a visible black aura emerged from Yabao’s body, but it quickly vanished.
Simultaneously, the black aura around Little Xunbao faded significantly.
With his previous experience, Yabao immediately channeled his energy and began purifying the dark energy within him, fearing that any delay would bring him bad luck again.
Little Xunbao examined the dark energy surrounding him, then looked back at Yabao, his eyes glowing purple as he cursed again.
“Xunxun~”
When the dark energy finally vanished, Little Xunbao floated over to his beastmaster and happily nudged his head against his cheek.
This time, Qiao Sang didn’t stop him.
“Aren’t you going to sleep?” Mikaela asked.
“With Lubao here, it’s okay to stay awake,” Qiao Sang said, then suddenly remembered something else and asked, “You said you’ve found the luck-boosting pet?”
Mikaela nodded, “It’s a pet named Wuyun Duoduo, who can increase others’ luck by dancing.”
She checked the time on her phone and said, “It should be here soon.”
Just as she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
Mikaela put down her phone and smiled, “It’s here.”
“Dongdong~”
Two more knocks on the door.
Qiao Sang looked toward the door, a thought stirring.
The next second, a gust of wind blew, pushing the door open.
“Wuwu,”
a pet, roughly ninety centimeters tall, wearing a miniature miniaturizing bracelet. Its body was predominantly red, its lower body covered in petals resembling a dress, pushed through the door and called out politely.
Xia Lala’s eyes lit up,
and she drifted over to it. Wu Yun Duoduo smiled at it.
“Qingqing,”
Xia Lala smiled back.
Wu Yun Duoduo was stunned for a moment, seemingly surprised by the unique call of the “Xian Xian Pu” before her.
“I think the one you’re increasing your luck with is Qing Feng Yun Ren,” Mikaela said, glancing in Qing Bao’s direction.
“Wu Yun,”
Wu Yun Duoduo regained her composure and looked at Qing Bao.
“Qingqing,”
Qing Bao called out as a greeting.
Wu Yun Duoduo froze again, looking from “Xian Xian Pu” to the pet named Qing Feng Yun Ren, her expression filled with bewilderment.
Qiao Sang somehow understood its expression, coughed, and explained, “Xianxianpu has been learning other races’ languages lately.”
“Qingqing,”
Xia Lala nodded.
“Wuyun.”
Wuyun Duoduo suddenly realized something and looked at “Xianxianpu” with an expression that said, “You’re amazing!”
“Qingqing,”
Xia Lala said shyly.
“Wuyun.”
Wuyun Duoduo remembered her business and came to Qingbao’s side. With a wave of her paws and a kick of her legs, she began to dance.
As she danced, red petals began to rise in the wind, swirling around her and Qingbao.
“Xunxun…”
Little Xunbao’s eyes lit up, and he floated over.
However, at that moment, a faint, visible black aura emanated from him.
Qiao Sang was startled and, with a wave of his hand, quickly retrieved little Xunbao from the Beast Taming Codex.
“Wuyun, Wuyun.”
Wuyun Duoduo danced for about a minute before stopping.
The red petals vanished just as they were about to fall to the ground.
“Wu Yun…”
Wu Yun Duo Duo panted and called out, indicating that her luck had been increased and she would be lucky for the next day.
One day?… Qiao Sang suddenly thought of something, and with a flicker of thought, she asked,
“Can you increase the luck of another target?”
Wu Yun Duo Duo hesitated, then looked at Xian Xian Pu and felt an inexplicable sense of relief. The energy within her body revived. She nodded and called out,
“Wu Yun.”
Sure. “
Wu Yun.”
After a pause, she called out again, but it would cost extra.
“Of course,”
Qiao Sang nodded.
As she spoke, she formed hand seals.
A mysterious, deep purple star array illuminated the room.
“Wu Yun…”
Wu Yun Duo Duo stared at the color of the array in amazement, her mouth widening.
“Wu Yun Duo Duo is only a general-level pet. She shouldn’t be able to suppress the curse within the Night Ring King,” Mikaela said.
“I’m not trying to suppress him. I just want to improve Little Xunbao’s luck. Even if the increased luck doesn’t help him find the Hidden Ghost Grass quickly, maybe it can help him absorb the curse’s power sooner,” Qiao Sang said.
During their conversation, Little Xunbao appeared within the star array and glanced at his beastmaster with a look of grievance.
“Wu Yun…”
Wu Yun Duoduo quickly began to dance.
This time, however, its movements were much stiffer, as if it was afraid of making a mistake.
Soon, Wu Yun Duoduo finished.
“Wu Yun…”
Wu Yun Duoduo gasped.
“Qing Qing,”
Xia Lala handed her a glass of water.
“Wu Yun,”
Wu Yun Duoduo called out gratefully, took the water, and poured it over herself.
Suddenly, it sensed something and froze for a moment. Then, looking at Xia Lala, it called out,
“Wu Yun.”
You smell so good.
“Qing Qing,”
Xia Lala said, with a look of “Really?” and a faint smile.
“Wu Yun,”
Wu Yun Duoduo nodded confidently, expressing its belief that no flower or plant would refuse such a scent.
Qiao Sang listened to the conversation, feeling a strange emotion.
Each Wuyun Duoduo dance cost 100,000 Alliance Coins.
While Wuyun Duoduo’s increased luck only affected mundane events, pets that could increase luck were rare and valuable, making this price quite reasonable on the market.
After transferring two hundred thousand Alliance coins, Wu Yun Duoduo said goodbye and left the room.
“Xun Bao, take out the Yao Ze Fruit.” Qiao Sang thought of the important matter and retracted his gaze from Xia Lala and said.
“Xun Xun~”
Xiao Xun Bao called out, took off the ring, and took out the Yao Ze Fruit from it.
Qiao Sang took the Yao Ze Fruit and immediately thought of something and said, “You stay in the Beast Taming Code for a while.”
Xiao Xun Bao: “???”
Before Xiao Xun Bao could speak, Qiao Sang waved his hand and took it back into the Beast Taming Code.
“Qing Qing.”
Qing Bao floated over.
“Eat it.” Qiao Sang handed over the Yao Ze Fruit.
“Qing Qing.”
Qing Bao took the Yao Ze Fruit, called out, and stuffed it into his mouth. (End of this chapter)
