Chapter 1130: The Fragrance of Xia Lala
Chapter 1130: The Fragrance of Xia Lala (Combined)
The True Fire Crystal is finally in our hands... Qiao Sang's face lit up with surprise, and she promptly flattered, "Pengamei, you never disappoint."
"Xunxun!"
Treasure Seeker looked at the crystal feather in Pengamei's hand with adoration and called out.
"Peng peng."
Pengamei curled her lips and pushed the crystal feather forward, calling out again.
Qiao Sang solemnly took it.
Migala smiled. "Let's go back and get some more sleep."
"Xunxun~"
Treasure Seeker's eyes glowed blue.
In the next second, the two and Pengamei, along with Treasure Seeker, vanished from the spot.
...
Villa.
The night was dark.
Migala and Pengamei went back upstairs to sleep, and Qiao Sang returned to her room. She handed the crystallized True Fire Crystal to Treasure Seeker and instructed, "Find a good place to store it. This will be Fangy's future evolution materials."
"Xunxun!"
Treasure Seeker nodded seriously, took off his ring, and found a good spot to place the True Fire Crystal.
Qiao Sang then thought of something, formed a seal with her hands, and summoned Fangy.
"Fangy"
Thanks to the Beastmaster Codex's healing, Fangy had already regained consciousness. He lay half on the bed, struggling to open his eyes. When he saw his surroundings, he seemed to understand something and tried to get up.
"You're seriously injured, don't get up yet." Qiao Sang said, turning to look at Lulu's water tank.
Just as she was about to wake Lulu, she noticed Lulu was already awake. Without a word, the gem on her forehead glowed cobalt blue, casting a light over Fangy.
In a few moments, the cobalt blue light dissipated, and Fangy looked refreshed and energetic, as if he had never been injured.
"Fangy"
But in the next second, Fangy drooped.
He had lost, and lost badly...
Fangy... Qiao Sang glanced at Fangy, sighed inwardly, and turned to Lulu. "When did you wake up?"
"Ice Emperor."
Lulu called out.
When Treasure Seeker called you, its voice was too loud.
"Xunxun..."
Treasure Seeker scratched his head awkwardly.
Qiao Sang also felt a bit embarrassed. "Go back to sleep. It's just that the True Bird came over, but everything is fine now."
Lulu glanced at Fangy and slowly closed her eyes.
"Fangy"
Fangy hung his tail, looking deeply hurt.
Qiao Sang looked at Fangy, lowered her voice, and comforted, "The True Bird is an Imperial Rank, two levels higher than you. The higher the level, the greater the gap, even between the early and mid stages of the same realm. Losing to the True Bird is actually quite normal."
"Fangy"
Fangy still looked dejected, clearly not comforted.
Qiao Sang then thought of something and added, "The True Fire Crystal and the True Bird's feather are now in our hands. With it, you have gathered one-third of the materials needed to evolve to the Imperial Rank. Once you successfully evolve, you will definitely be able to defeat the True Bird."
"Xunxun~"
Treasure Seeker nodded and called out, indicating that the True Fire Crystal was in his ring.
As he was about to take off his ring to show it to Big Brother Yabao, Fangy called out dejectedly, indicating that it was pointless. He was still at the Royal Tier and not even an Imperial Tier. Even if he had all the Imperial Rank evolution materials, it wouldn't help.
"Xunxun..."
Treasure Seeker stopped and looked at Qiao Sang, his eyes saying that Big Brother Yabao looked very sad...
Indeed... Qiao Sang responded to Treasure Seeker's gaze and looked at Fangy, speaking earnestly, "How can it be pointless? This is all preparation for you to become an Imperial Rank. Just because you're not an Imperial Rank now doesn't mean you won't be in the future. Just because you can't defeat the True Bird now doesn't mean you won't be able to in the future."
Hearing this, Fangy finally looked up at Qiao Sang.
He finally listened... Qiao Sang felt a surge of joy and continued, "Not all familiars are born strong. You have become stronger step by step. Believe in yourself. You will definitely become stronger than the True Bird."
She paused and added, "I believe in you."
"Xunxun~"
Treasure Seeker quickly chimed in, showing his support.
He believes too.
Fangy looked at Qiao Sang and then at Treasure Seeker, his expression gradually becoming determined. He called out, "Ya Ya!"
He understood!
With that, he jumped off the bed and walked toward the door.
Qiao Sang realized what Fangy was about to do and quickly said, "Don't go training yet. Lulu and the others are still sleeping. Your training noise will wake them up."
Fangy's body stiffened.
Qiao Sang spoke gently, "Go to sleep. You can train when you wake up tomorrow."
"Fangy"
Fangy turned his head, showing a resigned expression, and leaped onto the bed, finding a comfortable position to lie down and close his eyes.
Qiao Sang finally relaxed, extended her right hand, and motioned to Treasure Seeker.
Treasure Seeker blinked, not understanding what Qiao Sang wanted.
"Phone", Qiao Sang mouthed silently.
Earlier, Treasure Seeker had used the phone for location tracking but hadn't returned it.
"Xunxun..."
Treasure Seeker looked extremely reluctant but handed over the phone.
Qiao Sang plugged the phone into the charger by the nightstand, lay down, and closed her eyes.
The True Fire Crystal was in hand, and now only the Li Fire Crystal and Sun Crystal were left for Fangy's Imperial Rank evolution materials...
The Imperial Tier's evolution path is said to be close to the Sun, but the specifics still need to be tested...
Thinking about this seemed premature. The most likely to break through next was Qingbao. It was unclear how long it would take to gather his evolution materials...
Drowsiness overcame her, and in a daze, Qiao Sang inhaled the refreshing scent of grass and trees, falling into a deep sleep.
...
The next morning.
Qiao Sang awoke feeling refreshed. She sat cross-legged on the bed, ready to meditate as usual.
But in the next second, she seemed to realize something and looked to the side.
Fangy, who usually slept at this hour, was no longer in bed.
Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, then picked up her phone to check the time: 7:05 AM.
Fangy was already awake at this hour... Qiao Sang's ears perked up, and she heard the continuous sounds of skills being cast outside. Her mood became complex.
In the past, no matter how much she called, Fangy wouldn't wake up. Now, he knew how to wake up early.
This is growth, isn't it...
Qiao Sang gathered her thoughts, got up, put on her shoes, and went to the open training ground. Sure enough, she saw countless Yan Jiaou training different skills.
Fangy must have remembered what she said about not waking the others, as the power of his skills was clearly restrained.
Fangy really has grown up...
"Xunxun!"
As she thought, Treasure Seeker teleported to her side, calling out with teary eyes.
Save me!
Qiao Sang was taken aback. "What's wrong?"
"Xunxun!"
Treasure Seeker looked wronged and complained.
Big Brother Yabao made me train with him, and it's been so long!
Qiao Sang laughed. "You're at the same level as Fangy. Are you afraid to train with him?"
"Xunxun!"
Treasure Seeker called out, still looking aggrieved.
But Big Brother Yabao won't let me rest!
"Ya Ya!"
Fangy, high in the sky, called out, indicating that they had only trained for a short time, and there was no need to rest.
"Xunxun..."
Treasure Seeker tugged at Qiao Sang's sleeve, sniffled, and let out a plaintive cry, looking utterly wronged.
Look at Big Brother Yabao...
Qiao Sang said, "We left at around 3 AM and came back at around 4 AM. Fangy slept after that, and it's only a little past 7 AM. Even if he started training at 4 AM, it's not too long."
"Ya Ya."
Fangy nodded from the sky.
"Xunxun..."
Treasure Seeker let go of her sleeve, took a step back, and looked hurt, as if he couldn't believe Qiao Sang would say such heartless things.
Qiao Sang coughed and continued, "But everyone is about to wake up, and we should prepare breakfast. Treasure Seeker, go help me in the kitchen."
"Xunxun!"
Treasure Seeker's hurt expression vanished, and he nodded eagerly.
Sure, sure!
Fangy, seeing this, didn't say anything and continued training on his own.
Qiao Sang headed to the kitchen, and Treasure Seeker followed happily.
From a distance, Qiao Sang saw You Zhen Cat already busy in the kitchen and was taken aback. She approached and asked, "You're up so early?"
"You You."
You Zhen Cat called out, indicating that his schedule was like this.
"Xunxun~"
Treasure Seeker helped translate.
Qiao Sang watched You Zhen Cat's movements and asked, "Do you need any help?"
"You You."
You Zhen Cat shook his head, indicating that he needed nothing, just to sit and wait for the food.
"Xunxun~"
Treasure Seeker translated.
Having a familiar butler is pretty nice... Qiao Sang thought to herself, said, "I see", and turned back to her room. She freshened up, sat cross-legged on the bed, and began to meditate.
"Xunxun..."
Treasure Seeker stayed quietly in the room, afraid of going out and being caught for sparring again.
Suddenly, a refreshing scent of grass and trees filled the air, and Treasure Seeker felt invigorated, following the scent.
He saw Xia Lala sleeping in a flower pot by the window.
So fragrant... Treasure Seeker couldn't help but sniff closer.
Just then, Xia Lala woke up, slowly opened her eyes, and saw Treasure Seeker's face up close.
She was surprised for a moment but then greeted him warmly, "Xia Xia."
"Xunxun~"
Treasure Seeker responded, then sniffed closer, calling out sincerely, "Xunxun~"
You're so fragrant~
"Xia Xia."
Xia Lala smiled and called out, indicating that her scent could help relieve fatigue, relax the body and mind. If you like it, smell more; it's good for you.
As she spoke, the bud on her neck swayed, and the room's fragrance became even more intense.
Qiao Sang, smelling the invigorating scent, moved her nose and unconsciously relaxed her body and brain domain.
Unseen, her brain domain loosened slightly again.
"Xunxun..."
Treasure Seeker took a deep breath, feeling even more refreshed.
Suddenly, he noticed the Thunder Dragon's tail moving by the water tank, knowing it was about to wake up. He floated over, grinned, and wanted to greet his little brother friendly.
The Thunder Dragon opened his eyes and saw Treasure Seeker's face up close.
"Tingting!"
The Thunder Dragon was startled and instinctively released electric arcs, lashing out.
Treasure Seeker: "..."
...
Half an hour later.
At the dining table.
"Tingting..."
The Thunder Dragon picked up a fruit and carefully placed it on Treasure Seeker's plate.
"Xunxun~"
Treasure Seeker picked it up and ate it.
The Thunder Dragon, seeing this, relaxed and started eating his energy pills.
Qiao Sang, eating a fried egg, asked, "Will the True Bird notice something is wrong and come back?"
After all, the location was in the chat records.
Migala drank some milk and said, "Don't worry. If it noticed something was wrong, it would have found us already."
It seems that even at the Imperial Rank, familiars can be intelligent or not... Qiao Sang felt relieved but then thought of something and asked, "Should we look for the Li Fire Crystal or the Sun Crystal next?"
Migala pondered for a few seconds and said, "The Sun Crystal is a crystal left behind by the sun's meteorite from the Flame Sky Star, which falls every certain period. This usually gets a warning on the news channels."
"I know that", Qiao Sang said. "I checked. The last time this happened was 32 years ago, and there have been no recent broadcasts."
"No broadcasts mean it won't happen soon." Migala analyzed rationally, "We can't wait for this phenomenon, but we can look for Sun Crystals from past occurrences. Compared to the trail of Li Euras, the Sun Crystal is easier to find."
Qiao Sang nodded in agreement. "Let's look for the Sun Crystal next."
"Xia Xia?"
Suddenly, Xia Lala called out.
Migala immediately looked at Pengamei.
"Peng peng."
Pengamei swallowed her energy pill and called out, translating.
It asked if they were looking for Li Euras for some reason.
Migala looked at Xia Lala, her voice a bit strained, "We need the Li Fire Crystal, so we're looking for it."
She paused and added, "The Li Fire Crystal is a secretion from its eyes."
Hearing Teacher Mikara's explanation, Qiao Sang understood and her eyes brightened. "Do you know it?"
"Xia Xia."
Xia Lala nodded.
I've seen it before.
"Steel Chief" translated in her mind.
Qiao Sang's eyes brightened even more. "Do you have its contact information or know where it lives?"
"Xia Xia."
Xia Lala shook her head.
Qiaofelt a bit disappointed.
"Ding dong~"
The doorbell rang.
You Zhen Cat went to open the door.
The visitor, wearing a colorful shirt, was Kang Yang, whom they had just met yesterday.
He took off his shoes and said excitedly, "Senior! Junior! I have news about the True Bird! According to reliable sources, it appeared in Dragon Nation last night, right here!"
Migala: "..."
Qiao Sang: "..."
