Beastmaster? Monsters are beasts too!

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiu remained silent.

Faced with this question, he was not the original owner of the body and did not know how to answer it, nor did he want to take all the blame and guilt of the original owner upon himself.

The entire living room fell into a silent, oppressive atmosphere.

Seeing Chen Xiu like this, Li Juanli assumed he was overwhelmed with guilt and softened her tone, saying:

"The rat is dead, so be it. Mom was actually annoyed by its pooping everywhere."

"Brother is being naughty, Xiaohua is so cute..."

Chen Xiaoya's eyes were full of loneliness, which gave Chen Xiu a strange feeling.

"So this was prepared for me?"

Suppressing his frustration, Chen Xiu took the beast-taming egg, grinned, and said, "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely get into the Beast Taming Academy!"

"Stop talking big..." Li Juanli glanced at him. "I have to go out tonight, you do the dishes!"

……

After a deafening explosion, once the sound subsided, everyone dared to get up and look towards where Gomora was.

Looking at the huge hole in front of them, someone swallowed hard and said, "Goodness, is this thing really a Bronze-level monster? Even Silver-level monsters don't have this much destructive power!"

Zhu Kai patted the unresponsive detector, guessing that the other party had already escaped.

"At least no one was injured," he sighed. "Let's report to headquarters. The wanted level is tentatively set at silver."

……

Gomora fled all the way, and after the Crimson Lotus state was lifted, he was throbbing and weak all over.

I was originally planning to go back to the vicinity of the school when I suddenly sensed a faint life force.

Peeking out, I saw a back garden, dimly lit, with fireflies flitting about from time to time.

Gomora slowly crawled out of the ground, looked around at the unfamiliar environment, and rubbed its rumbling stomach, feeling both tired and hungry.

Completely disoriented, all I could think about was when my owner would come to pick me up, and whether I would be in danger.

Just as he was worried about Chen Xiu's safety, a clear and melodious voice suddenly rang out behind him.

"A cow that can dig in the dirt?"

"Whose precious child are you? No one's going to take care of you now that you're injured?"

Gomora rolled over like a carp, revealing a fierce expression, and stared warily at the girl not far away. Then, its legs gave way, and it landed with a thud on the ground…

"You're pretty good at being cute, hahaha."

Gomora's self-perceived vicious expression was seen as cuteness by the girl.

Gong Lianxue laughed heartily, and her pale cheeks blossomed with rosy blushes, making her look less sickly and more vibrant.

The plant-type tamed beast floating beside her seemed to sense Gong Lianxue's emotions, and its jellyfish-like body began to move its tentacles, emitting a bright moonlight.

Gomora's eyes lit up, and his mouth watered uncontrollably.

That's it! It exudes a vibrant life force and looks delicious!

So he immediately shamelessly staggered closer to the other person and pounced on them like a hungry tiger!

They were successfully entangled by the opponent... and could only struggle in the air.

Gong Lianxue was stunned for a moment, not expecting that the little guy in front of her, who was less than a meter tall, would be so aggressive.

"Little guy, you're fierce."

She pretended to be angry and waved her fist, as if to teach Gomora a lesson for its rudeness, then stepped forward, grasped Gomora's horns, and slowly closed her eyes.

A pale green light gathered in her palm. Gomora felt the changes in her body. The pain gradually disappeared and her strength gradually recovered. She couldn't help but let out an excited cry!

I've become stronger!!!

The recovery only went halfway before it stalled. Gomora licked the girl's fair wrist, gesturing, "Continue!"

But the girl's face grew even paler, and she began to cough incessantly, "Cough cough cough... My abilities are limited, the remaining injuries, cough cough... I can't handle them."

Gomora tilted his head, looking puzzled, and the girl chuckled.

Are you lost?

"Beast tamers and beast masters can sense each other. Try it with your heart!"

Clearly, she mistook Gomora for a lost tamed beast.

Gomora, only half-understanding, remained silent for a long time before disappearing into the ground.

Gong Lianxue smiled calmly. She rarely saw living creatures, but she was already quite content to occasionally see some beasts that had wandered in by mistake.

"The sun rises and the moon sets; another day has passed." Gong Lianxue tugged at the tendrils of her plant-taming beast and muttered, "What's the outside world like? Is it fun...?"

The plant-beast beside it did not respond, but silently emitted a green, self-healing light.

……

"Brother, I'm a little hot and can't sleep."

In April, the weather was unpredictable, with alternating periods of cold and warmth. Chen Xiaoya lay on the upper bunk, wriggling in the sweltering heat.

Chen Xiaoya's room was a whole size smaller than Chen Xiu's, but it faced south, with greenery visible from the window, and it also had the only air conditioner in the house.

This was originally Chen Xiu's room. Later, when Chen Xiaoya was born, Chen's father bought a bunk bed set, which was convenient for staying cool in the summer and also saved a lot of unnecessary expenses.

Later, when Chen Xiu grew up and needed privacy, he moved to an unused room.

At this moment, Chen Xiu lay on the bed, watching the changes in Gomora's status on the panel, and breathed a sigh of relief.

……

[Status: Pleasant]

……

Therefore, Gomora is at least safe, as he was originally preparing to go out and search.

Looking at Chen Xiaoya's swaying little hands, he said, "Will you come down? I'll fan you."

"My brother is so nice!"

Chen Xiaoya was happy to have her brother fan her, so she climbed the bed ladder and rushed to Chen Xiu's side, staring at the dark outside the window, blinking her eyes, seemingly lost in thought.

"Brother, will you become a very powerful beast tamer in the future?"

Chen Xiu closed his eyes to rest, gently waving his fan, and casually asked, "Why are you asking this?"

"These past few days, Mom has been constantly on the phone with Grandpa and Uncle..."

"Grandma always talks about your cousin Zhixuan and compares him to you every day, but I think he's a complete idiot."

Chen Xiu raised his eyelids, and the original owner's memories surfaced.

Since Chen's father died, the Chen family has disliked Li Juanli very much, blaming her for not taking good care of the family.

Every time they met, Li Juanli was either ridiculed or criticized, which caused her to gradually become indifferent to the Chen family. Chen's father was the third son in the family, with an older sister and an older brother.

Chen Zhixuan was born to the second son, making him Chen Xiu's cousin, only two months older than him.

As for Li Juanli contacting her long-lost relatives, Chen Xiu couldn't think of any other reason besides the fact that she was preoccupied with the original owner's new beast taming matter.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh, switched hands, and continued to fan Chen Xiaoya.

"If you think I can succeed, then I can succeed."

Seeing that Chen Xiu's answer was somewhat perfunctory, Chen Xiaoya crossed her arms and puffed out her cheeks in anger.

"Grandpa is such a bad old man, he always curses at people. When he gets to use a cane, I'm going to break it!"

Nine-year-old Chen Xiaoya spoke in a childish tone, yet with an air of maturity. Chen Xiu found it somewhat amusing, but pretended to be critical, saying, "You can't be disrespectful to your elders."

"Hmph, brother is such a big idiot!" Chen Xiaoya turned over, not wanting to pay any attention to Chen Xiu.

"Alright, why are you still angry?" Chen Xiu patted her a couple of times, and seeing Chen Xiaoya's resolute attitude, he compromised.

How can you stop getting angry?

Chen Xiaoya turned her back, her eyes darting around.

"I want my brother to be my horse!"

……

Exhausted, Gomora followed his senses and finally found Chen Xiu's house.

Guided by his memory, he climbed up from the broken spot and, following Chen Xiu's scent, poked his head out of the doorway.

Surprisingly, they saw the owner being ridden like a horse.

Could it be that the master was coerced into becoming a plaything under someone's crotch?

Alright! So that explains why the master hadn't come to find him yet—he was in danger!

So he roared!

Don't be afraid, Master, Gomora is coming!
