1221. Chapter 1216 Shedding Skin?
Sleeping?
How could he sleep when he hadn’t even collected 200 points yet?
“Xunxun~”
“Xunxun~”
“Xunxun!”
Little Xunbao floated over to Tingbao’s side and called out a few times.
But Tingbao didn’t respond, only the sound of even breathing, already sound asleep.
He’d fallen asleep so quickly… Little Xunbao hesitated for a moment, but decided not to wake him up again. Instead, he floated over and waited.
Time ticked by.
Little Xunbao glanced up at the sky. It was already dark, a thin layer of clouds frozen in place, the light dim. In a few moments, it would be completely dark.
Daylight on Yantian Star was incredibly long, and if it got dark, it meant it was really late.
“Xunxun!”
Little Xunbao, remembering the 200 points he hadn’t accumulated today, became anxious and nudged Tingbao, urging him to wake up.
Tingbao didn’t respond, appearing soundly asleep.
“Xunxun!”
“Xunxun!”
Little Xunbao nudged him twice more, but Tingbao still didn’t wake.
“Xunxun!”
Seeing this, little Xunbao gave a look that said, “It’s not my fault!” and licked Tingbao’s cheek.
Tingbao struggled for a moment, but still didn’t wake up.
Little Xunbao licked him a second time, and a third time.
On the fourth lick, he finally realized something was wrong. A serious expression appeared, his eyes glowing blue, and he disappeared with Tingbao.
…
Villa, open-air training ground.
“Xunxun!”
Little Xunbao appeared out of thin air, carrying Tingbao. He glanced around anxiously, then pinpointed Lubao’s location and called out.
Lubao heard the call, stopped training, and came over.
“Xunxun!”
Little Xunbao pointed at the sleeping Tingbao and called out urgently.
Without a word, the gemstone on his forehead glowed a faint blue, illuminating Tingbao.
When the faint blue light faded, Tingbao’s eyes were closed, but he didn’t wake up.
“Xunxun?”
Little Xunbao called out anxiously, wondering what to do.
Lubao calmed down considerably. He observed Tingbao for a moment, then called out,
“Ice Emperor?”
Was Tingbao asleep?
“Xunxun!”
Little Xunbao called out, indicating it was definitely more than just sleep. It had been asleep for at least four hours, and he had licked it several times, but it hadn’t woken.
“Ice Emperor,”
Lubao thought for a moment, then called out, suggesting he contact his beastmaster.
“Xunxun…”
Little Xunbao called out, indicating that this was the only way.
Then, he began to sense the connection with his beastmaster.
…
Meanwhile,
in a high-rise building,
Qiao Sang stood outside the door, listening to the sounds within.
A man’s slightly greasy voice rang out, “Baby, this is the Sun Crystal I paid a fortune for.”
“Is it real?” the woman asked, her voice filled with surprise.
“Of course it’s real. How could I give you a fake one?”
“Oh, darling, I love you so much!”
“I love you too,”
the man said, and the phone rang.
“Baby, wait a minute, I’m going to answer the phone.”
The sound of footsteps and a door closing could be heard, and then the phone was connected. The man said in a very low voice:
“Brother, you’re not bad. Where did you get this fake stuff? My girlfriend can’t even tell…”
Outside.
There are high-quality imitations of Sun Crystals. This level of fire-type material would be exposed as soon as it was used on a fire-type pet or examined by an appraiser… Qiao Sang internally grumbled, but wasn’t particularly surprised. He simply glanced at Qing Bao silently.
Since Feng’s search for Sun Crystals, this was the nth time he’d found a fake one.
To say Feng couldn’t find it, it had indeed found similar crystals.
To say Feng could find it, it had never found the right one.
Qing Bao, with an innocent expression, pointed at the swirling wind.
The wind paused for a moment, then quickly drifted away from the tall building.
“Qing Qing,”
Qing Bao called out, signaling Feng to continue his search.
Qiao Sang was about to say something when the page in the Beast Taming Codex about the little treasure hunt flashed.
When a Beast Tamer’s Beast Taming Codex reaches a certain level, the connection between them and their pet deepens. If a pet encounters trouble outside, it can even contact its own Beast Tamer through the Beast Taming Codex.
Something’s wrong… Qiao Sang’s heart tightened. He immediately formed hand seals and summoned Xiao Xunbao and Tingbao simultaneously.
You see, Xiao Xunbao had never contacted him through the Beast Taming Codex before, whether he was out playing or something.
Soon, Xiao Xunbao and Tingbao appeared within the star array.
“What happened?” Qiao Sang asked sternly, glancing at the sleeping Tingbao.
“Xunxun!”
“Xunxun!”
Xiao Xunbao pointed at Tingbao and called out twice, recounting the situation.
As he was speaking, the door suddenly opened.
“Who’s there? So noisy?” a young woman, seemingly in her twenties, asked from the doorway.
She was visibly startled when she saw a group of unfamiliar pets at the door.
The woman, who had already answered her phone, approached and asked in a greasy voice,
“Baby, who’s bothering you?”
He reached the door, a stern expression on his face, and said,
“You…”
Before he could finish, Qiao Sang interrupted,
“That sun crystal is fake,”
and then looked at Xiao Xunbao.
Little Xunbao understood, his eyes glowing blue. He vanished with his beastmaster and Yabao.
Man: “!!!!”
The woman turned to look at him with a stern expression.
…
Villa, living room.
“Yabao?”
Yabao circled around Tingbao and called out, indicating that Old Six had fallen asleep.
“He won’t be awakened by Little Xunbao’s tongue,” Qiao Sang said, pulling out her phone and calling Teacher Mikala.
Knowing the situation, she felt less anxious, as she could sense that Tingbao was fine.
After two beeps, the call connected.
“Hello, what’s up?” Teacher Mikala’s voice called out.
“Tingbao fell asleep a few hours ago…” Qiao Sang briefly explained the situation.
After listening, Mikala said, “Wait for me,” and hung up.
The next second, she, Peng Jiamei, and the Dragon King appeared out of thin air.
“Has he been asleep until now?” Mikala asked, bending over to examine him.
“Xunxun~” Little Xunbao called out.
“That’s right.” Qiao Sang said.
“Momo.”
The Dragon King looked down and before Michaela finished checking, it called out, indicating that the little guy was fine, just about to shed his skin.
“Shedding?” Michaela stopped what he was doing and looked at the Dragon King.
“Momo.” The Dragon King nodded.
“Is Tingbao about to shed his skin?” Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment and confirmed.
“Since the Dragon King said so, it must be a shed skin.” Michaela stood up, looked at Tingbao with closed eyes with a complicated expression, and said. (End of this chapter)
