Chapter 748
Beast taming, starting from zero point
Chapter 748: Chapter 670 I Just Feel Like Iâve Had a Revelation The black shadow crawled out from the ground like sinister tentacles, slowly wrapping around the manâs neck.
Yet the man turned his head as if he felt nothing, looking towards the young girl being questioned by the police in the distance.
I almost forgot about this kid... A veiled chill flickered in the manâs eyes.
He hadnât misseen just now; If it hadnât been for this kidâs Pet Beast using Telekinesis, how could he have failed to summon his own Pet Beast?
And it would have been impossible to disclose that incident in front of so many people.
But it didnât matter, it was troublesome, but not insoluble, although his reputation might not recover for some time.
Really, Elyssa, to harbor such a grudge at such a young age, to have attracted such lingering resentment...
The man attempted to take out his cellphone to complain to his lover but then remembered his hand was broken and immobile.
Damn it... The man looked back at the sky, suppressing his surge of violent emotion.
Forget it, at least Iâm still alive.
As he was thinking, a familiar face appeared above, blocking out the sunlight.
The manâs pupils suddenly constricted, his expression panicked to the extreme.
He wanted to scream for help, but in the next second, a sharp pain struck his neck, and the world in his eyes instantly turned into the concrete ground beneath him.
...
"Ah!!!"
A shrill cry rang out.
Qiao Sang, who was speaking with the police, followed the noise and saw the man who had been lying on the ground now with his head twisted a grotesque one hundred and eighty degrees, face planted downward, eerily.
Next to him lay the bloodless little boy in a blue hoodie stained with blood.
In that moment, Qiao Sang couldnât articulate her feelings.
Honestly, despite having seen all kinds of news, this was the first time she had witnessed such a brutal scene with her own eyes.
The police in front of her ran over one after another.
"Xun Xun?"
Xiao Xunbao tentatively asked, indicating whether it should suck up the negative Emotional Energy from her.
"No need, Iâm fine," Qiao Sang said.
"Xun Xun..."
Xiao Xunbao sighed; the competition to absorb negative energy wasnât fun at all.
...
"Name."
"Qiao Sang."
"Age."
"Sixteen."
"Why were you in the morgue?"
"I was participating in the Spectral-type Pet Beast Negative Energy Collection Competition."
In the police station, Qiao Sang completed a familiar transcription.
After the transcription was done, she asked:
"Have you caught the lurking grudge?"
"No," the police officer comforted, "But you donât have to worry. As long as you have neither died a violent death nor caused the death of someone, the lurking grudge wonât come for you."
Itâs not that Iâm worried about... Qiao Sang complained internally, then asked, "May I go now?"
"Yes," the police officer nodded.
As Qiao Sang exited the police station, she found that it had gotten dark.
"Xun Xun~"
Xiao Xunbao emerged, playing with a three-dimensional model of Shadow Control on one side, twisting it into various patterns like a rope of flowers.
"What are you doing?" Qiao Sang glanced at it.
"Xun Xun~"
Xiao Xunbao called out sweetly, indicating it was training its Shadow Control Skill.
Qiao Sang paused, "Why have you suddenly started training in Shadow Control?"
"Xun Xun~"
Xiao Xunbao grinned, showing an expression that said, âI just felt like training.â
Qiao Sang silently watched it, her gaze conveying, âDo you think I would believe that?â
"Xun Xun..."
Xiao Xunbaoâs expression stiffened, then it shook its hands helplessly.
It remembered that whenever it trained, Qiao Sangâs mood seemed to improve.
It just genuinely hoped its Beast Tamerâs mood would get better.
Qiao Sang was moved and was about to say that training wasnât necessary, that sheâd feel better after some sleep, but then she remembered that lately Xiao Xunbao had been exceptionally lazy, procrastinating training, and even staying up late addicted to electronics. She swallowed her words.
"Xun Xun~"
Xiao Xunbao blinked up at its Beast Tamer.
"Youâre right," Qiao Sang coughed, "Seeing you train has improved my mood quite a bit. You may continue."
"Xun Xun..."
Xiao Xunbao always felt that something was off.
However, after sensing around, it realized that its Beast Tamerâs negative emotional energy was indeed decreasing, and its eyes lit up, continuing to display the three-dimensional pattern of Shadow Control.
Seeing this, Qiao Sang controlled her rising smile and took out her phone to check the time.
8:23 PM.
The three hours since the competition had long passed.
The rankings were probably out, and the emotional energy collection bottle was still on her, it seemed sheâd need to find time to return it...
As she was pondering, a voice sounded beside her:
"Participant number 113."
Qiao Sang followed the voice and looked with surprise, "Participant number 98, what are you doing here?"
"Iâm also here to give a statement," the woman said, getting closer.
Soon, she saw Xiao Xunbao "playing catâs cradle."
"Thisâis this Shadow Control?" the woman showed a look of astonishment on her face.
She wasnât particularly surprised that this Spectral-type Pet could do that move; after all, it had even learned Psychic Series Spatial Movement, but she had never considered that such a sophisticated and grand skill like Shadow Control could be used in such a fun way!
Qiao Sang gave a noncommittal "hmm," and changed the subject:
"The competition is over. Are you planning to return the emotional energy collection bottle now, or tomorrow?"
"No need to return it," the woman resumed her composure and said, "didnât they leave contact information for us above? The organizers will come to collect it actively, and this competition was live-streamed today, everybody knows we went to the police station later."
Qiao Sang nodded, "Then Iâll be leaving first."
"Wait," the woman called out, "letâs go together."
"Are we going the same way?" Qiao Sang asked.
The woman flashed a smile, "We can be."
Qiao Sang was momentarily speechless and started walking according to the navigation to the place she rented.
The woman followed, trying to start a conversation, "You seem in a bad mood?"
"Do I?" Qiao Sang responded indifferently.
"Yes," the woman said earnestly, "even though you were quiet backstage today, you were clearly in a better mood."
Qiao Sang was silent for a moment, "Today was my first time encountering such a situation."
The woman laughed lightly, "Were you scared?"
"No," Qiao Sang finished speaking, paused, and said self-deprecatingly, "Perhaps itâs just overflowing sympathy, feeling pity for those two kids."
The woman fell silent for a few seconds, her voice softened, "I saw it all."
"What did you see?"
"You had your Spectral Pet force that scumbag in front of the resentful spirit. But when I finished explaining that the girlâs soul would disappear, you commanded the scumbag to stay away from her."
Qiao Sang spoke calmly, "From the beginning, I knew that the price for the resentful spiritâs help was a soul. When I saw the little girl and that man, I subconsciously thought that the evil should meet their retribution, and this thought made me momentarily forget the outcome after the resentful spirit helped. Thankfully, you reminded me."
In the evening breeze, the woman sighed, "Even if you hadnât moved that scumbag away from the resentful spirit in the end, what could it have changed? You are a Beast Tamer, and for a scumbag who gambled his own childâs life, the police would only let the resentful spirit take the blame. You are aware of this."
"Youâre upset because after the scumbag receives his retribution, the little girlâs soul will disappear as well."
Qiao Sang had a look of resignation, "You canât have everything."
"Who says?" the woman spoke with a smile.
Qiao Sang glanced at her.
The woman continued, "The resentful spirit is just a General-level Pet Beast. Above General-level, thereâs King Level, Emperor Level, there are plenty of beasts that can restrain or overpower it. If you canât have it both ways now, itâs just because you havenât reached that level yet."
"Any hesitation you had today is only because your abilities have not yet reached the point of doing what you want."
"Twenty years from now, you wonât need the resentful spirit at all. Youâll be able to see peopleâs souls on your own and communicate directly if you want to help. Making the resentful spirit spit out a soul it has ingested wonât be a problem for you."
"Think differently, you can have your Pet Beast learn skills like Memory Manifestation, so when you encounter similar situations again, it wonât be so troublesome. Such skills can expose those scumbags for what they truly are."
As she reached this point, her tone shifted, "But youâve done great already, at least better than meâyou even saved me today."
Qiao Sang didnât respond for a long time.
The words "your abilities have not yet reached the point of doing what you want" echoed continuously in her mind.
That was it.
Her powerlessness today was merely because she realized she couldnât do anything she wanted, she couldnât act on her will.
Suddenly, Qiao Sang felt a throbbing pain in her head.
Then, a voice like "Xun Xun" came from beside her.
Qiao Sang turned her head and saw Xiao Xunbao looking worried.
"Whatâs the matter?" the woman beside her noticed and asked.
"Iâm fine," Qiao Sang said, and when she spoke, the pain stopped, and she felt a sense of mental clarity. She hesitated and then said with conviction, "I just feel as if Iâve had an epiphany."
