Chapter 1098: Bloodpurifier Fruit
Chapter 1098: Bloodpurifier Fruit (Combined)
Sweetflower was taken aback for a moment before nodding earnestly.
"Meimei!"
No matter what, it would help!
"Qingqing", Qingbao was pleased with Sweetflower's attitude and helped with the translation.
Qiao Sang smiled and said,
"It's not a big deal. We just want you to help Qingbao with his stench endurance training."
Although Meichouni had evolved into Sweetflower and its scent had become more pleasant, the skill of emitting stench had not disappeared. In fact, now that it had evolved to the General Class, the stench it could release was even more powerful than before.
Qingbao's expression immediately stiffened.
While it had prepared for the training, it hadn't expected things to happen so quickly.
"Meimei?"
Sweetflower looked puzzled and called out.
What was stench endurance training? How was it done?
Without needing Qingbao to translate, Qiao Sang could guess what Sweetflower was thinking from its expression and patiently explained,
"You just need to keep using your stench skill around it. Whether you're battling it or having it train in a stench-filled environment, it doesn't matter. The training is complete when it can remain calm in the stench for a long time, with no disturbance in the wind around it."
As he spoke, Qiao Sang looked at Qingbao.
He was also speaking to it.
Qingbao might be able to endure the stench for a short time and fake its expression, but the wind influenced by its emotions wouldn't lie. Only when the wind was calm could it be certain that Qingbao was truly calm.
"Qingqing..."
Qingbao, upon hearing this, couldn't help but imagine itself training in a stench-filled air. As soon as the image appeared, it quickly shook its head to dispel it.
Just thinking about it was terrifying...
"Meimei!"
Sweetflower understood and nodded earnestly, calling out to show that it would definitely help Qingbao complete the training.
"Then I'll leave it to you", Qiao Sang said.
"Meimei!"
Sweetflower waved its claws, indicating that it was no trouble at all, especially since its home was nearby, making it convenient to come over for training every day.
Qingbao's face remained stiff, and it had no intention of translating.
At that moment, a black hole appeared out of nowhere, and Treasure Seeker's head emerged, calling out,
"Xunxun!"
It said it would be easy to come over and help with the training every day!
After saying this, it retracted back into the black hole.
"Qingqing!"
Qingbao, furious, shouted at Treasure Seeker, who had reappeared in the sky.
Treasure Seeker was seriously battling the valiant dragons and pretended not to hear anything.
"Qingbao", Qiao Sang looked at it and said, "You already agreed to the training."
"Qingqing..." Qingbao's aura weakened instantly.
"Meimei?" Sweetflower called out, asking when to start.
"Xunxun!" In the sky, Treasure Seeker, while controlling Dark Shadow to attack the valiant dragons, helped translate.
It asked when the training would start!
Qingbao: "..."
This guy was definitely doing it on purpose.
Qiao Sang thought for a moment and said,
"Let's start now that you're here."
"Meimei." Sweetflower nodded, indicating that it had no problem.
Qiao Sang looked at Qingbao.
"Qingqing."
Qingbao forced a grim smile and called out, indicating that it had no problem either.
Seeing that everything was settled, Qiao Sang turned around and walked over to Teacher Mikara's side.
"Meimei." Sweetflower turned its head and saw that the human it liked was outside the safe area. It then activated its energy, and a dense green gas immediately sprayed out from the petals around its neck.
Qingbao instinctively held its breath, then it seemed to think of something, and a pink glow emanated from its body.
At the same time, the ground beneath it, an area of about twenty square meters, also lit up with a pink glow.
"I didn't expect that Meichouni would evolve into a Sweetflower because of you." Migala said with a complex expression.
She had heard the entire conversation.
"I didn't expect it either", Qiao Sang reflected. "I just gave it a bouquet of flowers after the match."
"You also gave it confidence", Migala said.
"It's mainly because of Sweetflower itself", Qiao Sang said, looking at the distant rose-red shadow and smiling. "If all Meichouni evolved because of a bouquet of flowers and a compliment, Sweetflowers wouldn't be so rare."
Migala looked at Qiao Sang, and a sudden thought flashed through her mind:
Perhaps this student, even without the talent of a prodigy, would still have various familiars willing to bond with her on Flame Sky Star.
"Momo."
"Momo."
As she was thinking, two young dragons emerged, still munching on fruit.
Seeing this, Qiao Sang put on an "I just remembered I have something to do" expression and said, "I'll go meditate."
With that, she immediately turned and walked toward her room.
"Momo …"
"Momo …"
The two young dragons continued to munch on their fruit, looking in the direction of the Dragon King.
These two useless things … The Dragon King's nostrils flared in anger, then she remembered something, pulled out her phone, and called to have a new batch of the younger generation sent over, calling "Momo, Momo" as she did.
Migala looked up at the blazing sun in the sky and suddenly felt a bit lonely …
…
That evening, at 6:30 PM.
Qiao Sang watched the two young dragons at the dining table, who were eating fruit with great elegance, wiping their mouths with napkins after each bite. She hesitated and said, "These two young dragons don't seem to be the same ones from noon."
"Momo."
The Dragon King gave a "You have good eyes" look and called out.
"Ya Ya!"
Fangy, while eating energy pills, took a moment to translate, explaining that the two from noon had returned and these were new arrivals.
The two young dragons didn't speak, but they smiled and nodded at Qiao Sang, a greeting.
To think they replaced the young dragons so quickly … Qiao Sang quickly buried her head in her food, hoping to avoid any conversation.
The two young dragons were also quiet, continuing to eat their fruit with elegance.
The Dragon King: "…"
The Dragon King looked tired, then glanced at the power dragons beside her, sighing inwardly:
If this little one were still a junior, the chances of being bonded would probably increase by at least half.
The power dragons quietly ate their fruit, seemingly oblivious to the Dragon King's gaze.
The Thunder Dragon, meanwhile, ate energy pills and glared at the two young dragons eating elegantly.
Qingbao looked at the energy pills in front of it with a blank expression, having no appetite.
Perhaps it was because the training time was too long, but even after Sweetflower left, it still felt a bad smell around it …
"Xunxun?"
The Treasure Seeker looked at Qingbao, calling out in concern, "What's wrong?"
"Qingqing."
Qingbao shook its head, indicating that it was fine, just not feeling hungry and couldn't eat much.
Fangy looked surprised, seemingly not expecting a familiar to have no appetite in the face of such delicious food.
"Ya Ya!"
Fangy called out, suggesting, "Don't waste it. Let me help you eat."
Speaking of which, Fangy extended its claws to grab the Energy Pills in front of Qingbao.
Qingbao, expressionless, shifted the plate of Energy Pills, turned its back to Fangy, and started eating.
"Teeth Fangy"
Fangy looked puzzled.
Didn't you say you weren't feeling well...
Qiao Sang saw this and laughed.
"Even if Qingbao really can't eat, you can't take its Energy Pills. Each of your Energy Pills is specially formulated, and you can't mix them. If you're still hungry, just eat another plate of your own."
"Ya Ya!"
Fangy's eyes lit up, and it let out a call.
"Xunxun~"
The Treasure Seeker immediately took off its Ring, pulled out Fangy's Energy Pills, and poured some into a plate.
The Dragon King watched this scene and felt very satisfied with the camaraderie among its juniors.
Then, it remembered something, pushed a dish in Migala's direction, and called out with a smile:
"Momo."
Migala: "..."
Even though she knew the Dragon King's intentions, she still felt a bit surprised and honored.
After dinner, the two young dragons, under the Dragon King's guidance, cleared the table.
Fangy and the others went to the Open Training Ground for training.
Qiao Sang returned to her room and sat down to meditate.
After about two minutes, she heard some commotion, opened her eyes, and saw the Treasure Seeker playing on the computer at her desk.
You're getting bolder, playing the computer right in front of me without my permission... Qiao Sang coughed and asked:
"Aren't you going to train?"
The expected reaction of Treasure Seeker jumping in surprise didn't happen.
"Xunxun~"
Treasure Seeker didn't stop its actions, called out, and indicated it would digest first before training.
Qiao Sang raised an eyebrow, amused.
"Are you digesting by playing the computer?"
"Xunxun!"
Treasure Seeker turned around with a "Heaven can attest" expression, pointed to the computer screen, and called out.
It wasn't playing the computer; it was looking for missions to earn credits, a serious business!
The Imperial Beastmaster Academy's official website posted missions not only on Blue Star but also on other planets. Some alumni were stationed on other planets, and some resources were only available there, though missions on other planets were not as common.
So, you're looking for missions, no wonder you dared to play the computer in front of me... Qiao Sang felt she had wronged the Treasure Seeker and softened her tone.
"Thirty minutes at most."
"Xunxun~"
Treasure Seeker called out, indicating that thirty minutes would be enough, and continued to focus on the missions it could take on.
While on Blue Star, there were plenty of missions to choose from, but now on Flame Sky Star, finding missions wasn't as easy... Qiao Sang closed her eyes and continued to meditate.
After about ten minutes, Treasure Seeker's gaze fixed on a particular mission:
【I hope a fellow alumnus on Flame Sky Star can send me a Bloodpurifier Fruit. Mission reward: 1000 credits. Shipping costs are covered.】
Her Beastmaster said she would buy it a mobile phone if it earned 1000 credits... 1000 credits, this mission offers 1000 credits! If it completes this mission, it will have a mobile phone... Treasure Seeker's eyes lit up, its heart raced, and it couldn't look away.
"Xunxun!"
"Xunxun!"
However, it quickly reacted, floated over to its Beastmaster, and excitedly shook her body, calling out twice.
“What’s the matter?” Qiao Sang opened her eyes reluctantly and asked.
“Xunxun!”
Treasure Seeker pointed at the computer and excitedly called out, indicating it had found a mission that would earn a lot of credits.
“What is it?” Qiao Sang got up and walked over to the desk, taking a look.
At first glance, she saw the mission Treasure Seeker was talking about.
The mission details were displayed on the screen, and in the bottom left corner, it read “Mission Accepted.”
Qiao Sang glanced at the mission and her lips twitched. Path of Indifference:
“Cancel this mission.”
“Xunxun?”
Treasure Seeker called out in disbelief.
Why?
Qiao Sang sighed and explained:
“The Bloodpurifier fruit is impossible to find on the market, even if you have the money. It’s used to purify a familiar’s bloodline and only grows on trees that are a thousand years old. Such a thing can’t possibly appear on the market.”
“Xunxun…”
Treasure Seeker’s expression turned disappointed.
Without the Bloodpurifier fruit, there would be no credits, and without credits, there would be no mobile phone.
Its mobile phone was gone…
Qiao Sang comforted it:
“You can look for other missions.”
“Xunxun…”
Treasure Seeker nodded dejectedly.
That was all it could do…
It floated back to the computer, looking at the mission interface, its eyes lingering on the reward credits. It moved its claws but couldn’t bring itself to click “Cancel.”
…
The next morning.
All-Comic Arena.
Contestant Area.
Qingbao sat in its seat, looking like it hadn’t slept well, with unusual gusts of wind swirling around it.
“Not feeling well?” Qiao Sang asked.
“Qingqing…”
Qingbao called out weakly, indicating it had just had a bad night’s sleep.
“Why?” Qiao Sang asked again.
“Qingqing…”
Qingbao called out, remembering that last night it had felt surrounded by a foul smell.
It remembered that Sweetflower had come over after dinner and helped with sparring until it was time to sleep. Qingbao couldn’t help but wonder if it was developing a fear of training… Qiao Sang called out:
“Lulu.”
Lulu’s head emerged from the backpack and, without a word, the gem on its forehead glowed with a cobalt blue light, shining over Qingbao.
Once the blue light faded, Lulu said nothing and retreated back into the backpack.
“Feeling better?” Qiao Sang asked.
“Qingqing…” Qingbao shook its head.
Its body felt better, but it still thought it could smell the foul odor.
Well, it must be a psychological issue… Qiao Sang pondered for a moment and said:
“Why don’t we pause the foul smell endurance training and resume after your match?”
“Qingqing.”
Qingbao’s eyes became determined as it shook its head.
No, it wanted to continue!
Qiao Sang hesitated:
“But your current state might affect your match.”
“Qingqing.”
Qingbao took a deep breath and then smiled sweetly, indicating it had adjusted.
… Qiao Sang felt the wind still swirling around them and fell silent.
Meanwhile, the host had finished her opening remarks.
She spoke into the microphone, getting to the main event: “Today, we will hold the matches for the round of 16 to 8. Which two contestants will face each other? Let’s look at the big screen!”
A giant virtual screen on the stage displayed the photos of the contestants.
The photos flickered rapidly.
Soon, they came to a stop.
Qiao Sang immediately saw her opponent:
【Qiao Sang vs. Aura Dragons】
