Chapter 349: Chapter 336 Getting its Body but not its Heart (Supplement)

Hushuo Evil Spirit, as a General-level Pet Beast, its hypnotism almost always ensnares someone as soon as their eyes meet.

And when something suddenly appears in front of you, it’s inevitable to stare at it.

Hushuo Evil Spirit suddenly stepped forward, and Qiao Sang subconsciously looked over.

Although the moment she saw the purple eyes she realized something was amiss and wanted to quickly turn her head away,

it was already too late.

It’s over, this time it’s really over. The "villainous" uncle is serious this time... Qiao Sang’s eyelids felt heavy, her head spun, and she only felt a strong wave of drowsiness envelop her.

The view in front of her got blurrier and blurrier.

Before falling to the ground, she looked hazily in the direction of the transparent device, thinking to herself that everyone says those who see Qi Yunla will have good luck, yet why was she so unlucky? She also wondered what would happen next, whether she would be able to make it to the competition tomorrow...

At the same time, the mighty Flying Owl descended with a whooshing sound, so fast it seemed to rip through the air.

Even though it executed only the mid-level skill, Brave Bird Fierce Attack, a General-level Pet Beast employing the same skill is powerfully different from an intermediate pet beast.

Yaobao wasn’t unacquainted with this move on other pet beasts, but this time the feeling was entirely different.

Amid the velocity of Brave Bird Fierce Attack, the sight of Mammal using its claws to shake the pocket watch nearby became exceedingly slow.

In the instant Yaobao looked up, the Flying Owl’s attack had already arrived.

"Bang!!!"

Yaobao had no chance to react and was knocked back like a struck billiard ball, flying straight into a large tree about ten meters away.

The branches shook, and a multitude of leaves fell.

"Xun..."

In midair, Xiao Xunbao’s eyes uncontrollably focused on the pocket watch, growing heavier and heavier.

At the moment Yaobao was sent flying into the tree, Xiao Xunbao tilted its head back, snoring with its eyes closed as it fell from the sky.

Complete annihilation...

...

"Yun!!!"

Watching the spectacle from outside, Qi Yunla inside the transparent device angrily slapped at it with its claws.

But no one paid any attention to the commotion on its side, as if its sharp cries were nonexistent.

With every cry from Qi Yunla, an invisible sound wave emitted from inside the device, splitting into three directions and descending upon Qiao Sang, Yaobao, and Xiao Xunbao respectively.

At the same time, the air trembled slightly, settling down only after the sound waves had fully descended.

Everyone knew that Qi Yunla could bring good luck to people, but no one knew how exactly Qi Yunla bestowed that fortune.

It wasn’t that everyone who saw Qi Yunla would gain good luck.

Zhang Rongtang remembered well the considerable effort he took to have Qi Yunla bestow good luck upon him.

He had stayed in a rundown town for over two years, all the while fawning over a teenager... Zhang Rongtang’s gaze was complex as he watched the trembling Wu Chang.

To be honest, having spent such a long time together, to say there were no feelings would be a lie, but such feelings were trifling compared to acquiring Qi Yunla.

Zhang Rongtang put back on his affable smile: "Wu Chang, give me Qi Yunla."

Wu Chang also looked towards Hushuo Evil Spirit, but since Hushuo Evil Spirit was focused on Qiao Sang, Wu Chang was unaffected.

Upon hearing Zhang Rongtang’s words, Wu Chang tightened his grip on the transparent device, fully aware of the other’s hidden Beast Tamer identity and what he had been up to until now, yet he still harbored a sliver of hope as he said:

"Uncle Zhang, can we not capture Yun Yun? It doesn’t want to live in human society, it has stayed here for so long just to go home."

"I know," Zhang Rongtang said calmly. "Nine years ago, there was a crack in a Secret Realm in this area, it must have come out from that crack at that time."

"But Wu Chang, you must realize that nobody can resist the temptation of contracting with Qi Yunla. You haven’t, and that’s simply because you don’t have the ability to force a contract."

"Having waited nine years for the Secret Realm fissure to never appear, it should give up by now."

"Luckylucky!"

Qi Yunla angrily called out.

This time, its voice was heard by both Zhang Rongtang and Wu Chang.

Zhang Rongtang glanced at it and said, "If you like the environment inside the Secret Realm, once we’ve made a contract, I can take you for a walk inside."

"Luckylucky!"

"Luckylucky!"

"Luckylucky!"

Qi Yunla bared its teeth with a fierce look on its face.

Although its expression was not visible and there was no Pet Beast to translate, anyone could tell it was cursing vehemently.

Wu Chang stared at the man who had looked after him like a father for over two years, knowing that nothing he said could stop his decision now.

It wasn’t a spur-of-the-moment decision, but a long-conceived plan.

Wu Chang fell silent for a while, then asked, "When did you discover Luckylucky?"

"Two years ago," Zhang Rongtang said. "At that time, I noticed your luck was unusually good. You’d spend three yuan on a drink, then win a prize, buy another, and win again. It was just three yuan, but in the end, you brought back a whole box of drinks."

"You bought a second-hand phone for 200 yuan that was worth more than 5000, and it broke the next day. You took it to be repaired, and on the way, I even saw your classmates laughing at you. But that day, there was a big inspection at your school, and you were the only one who escaped trouble. The phone, once repaired, never broke again."

"When the second page of the Beast Taming Codex was available and you told me you had no money to contract a Pet Beast and would talk about it again once you’d found a part-time job and saved some money; before you even started looking for the job, the next day, a small Shi Bird fainted and fell in front of you after hitting a tree."

"A Pet Beast from the Lian Ke Area, renowned for its exceptional vision, actually crashed into a tree in front of you."

"Everything was too abnormal, so I followed you and later discovered Qi Yunla."

Having said that, he sighed wearily, "It’s a pity that Qi Yunla never wanted to appear before me, making me waste so much time here."

Wu Chang was silent for a long time after hearing this.

He was silent for so long that Zhang Rongtang thought he wouldn’t speak again, when Wu Chang suddenly asked, "Why were you so kind to me?"

Zhang Rongtang honestly replied, "Because I figured out that only if I did that would Qi Yunla occasionally bring good luck my way."

Sometimes, having too good a memory is not a blessing.

Wu Chang vividly recalled every single detail of his time spent with Zhang Rongtang.

How happy he had been then was equal to the pain he felt now.

He stood there like a sculpture, his body no longer trembling,

So it turned out that everything from beginning to end was a lie...

"Old Zhuang." After all, it was a child who had been with him for so long, seeing that Wu Chang was not in a good place emotionally, Zhang Rongtang didn’t force anything further but nodded towards the Stout Giant Owlet soaring in the sky.

"Stout stout."

The Stout Giant Owlet understood its Beast Tamer’s intention, lowered its head, and dove down towards Wu Chang, trying to snatch the transparent device containing Qi Yunla from his hands.

Wu Chang looked down, his bangs concealing his eyes as if he no longer cared about anything.

"Luckylucky!"

Qi Yunla angrily called out at Zhang Rongtang outside the device.

Even if it got its body, it couldn’t have its heart!

No, not even the body!

It would never contract, even in death!

Qi Yunla’s eyes turned blue, and energy within its body started to converge. Just when it was prepared to defy fate, a blazing and dazzling red light shot past, directly knocking the Stout Giant Owlet, that was about to seize the device, out of the sky.
