Chapter 717: The Perfect Target for Farming Points

The ice flower shattered, revealing Qiao Sang’s ashen face.

“Xun Xun!”

Little Treasure suddenly threw himself into his Beast Master's arms, crying bitterly.

He had been so worried!

Qiao Sang struggled to move her hand and weakly said, “Lubao… I need Lubao…”

Her body seemed intact, but it was freezing cold, and her head was still buzzing.

At that moment, a thought flashed through her mind:

Thank goodness I’ve been having the Body Forge Bug exercise me lately…

Before she could think further, darkness fell over her eyes.

When light returned, she saw Lubao.

Immediately after, a blue light began to glow from Lubao's body, shining down upon her.

Ah, how comfortable…

Qiao Sang only felt warm and cozy, like she was basking in sunlight.

Her body warmed up, and her headache disappeared.

“Ju-ju!”

While Qiao Sang was being healed by the Healing Light, two Giant Rock Nikas simultaneously raised their powerful front limbs and stomped hard on the ground.

Boom!

The ground trembled.

At that moment of forceful impact, two massive energy waves suddenly exploded out from the two Giant Rock Nikas at the center.

At the same time, Qiao Sang opened her eyes and quickly gave a command: “Spatial Shift!”

“Xun Xun~”

Little Treasure called out, his eyes glowing blue.

In the next second, Qiao Sang, Little Treasure, and Lubao disappeared from the spot.

Right after that, the ground where Qiao Sang had been was shattered into powder and collapsed inward.

“Ju-ju…”

As the area returned to silence, the two Giant Rock Nikas looked at each other in confusion, seeing no one left behind.

Meanwhile.

Charles, who was watching the monitor, suddenly stopped.

“What’s wrong?” Caro asked.

Charles’s expression darkened.

“Qiao Sang disappeared.”

Caro: !!!

Her face went pale with fear as she covered her mouth to stop herself from screaming.

Seeing her expression, Charles understood her panic and added, “It should be the Ghost Ring King using Spatial Shift to relocate. That’s why she disappeared from her original location.”

Caro lowered her hand, speechless.

“I hope you can express things more clearly next time.”

Charles shrugged.

“Got it.”

Then he looked at the monitor in his hand, expression turning serious.

“We need to leave this area quickly. For some reason, more and more general-level pet beasts are gathering here. Before, I wasn’t worried because Qiao Sang was here, but now she’s suddenly moved far away.”

“We can’t handle that many general-level pets.”

“Then let’s hurry and go.” Caro said anxiously.

“Wait, let me check where Qiao Sang is now.” Charles operated the monitor. His expression suddenly changed, and he swallowed hard.

“Qiao Sang seems to be near the core of the Baizhi Mountains…”

Caro instantly turned ghostly pale.

“Are we still going to find her?”

Charles hesitated for a moment, then clenched his teeth.

“We should.”

Qiao Sang’s Ghost Ring King can teleport. As long as they regroup, they’ll definitely be able to escape safely.

Besides, Qiao Sang is still a freshman, just starting school, and with such an unusual talent. If anything happened to her because he took her on an expedition, he couldn’t bear the responsibility.

Caro took a deep breath and said, “Okay, let’s go together!”

Then she suddenly fell quiet and asked hesitantly, “Do you hear something?”

“Yes…” Charles frowned and looked toward the ground.

The next second, the ground trembled.

Suddenly, a massive creature burst from underground.

Looking at the pet beast before him, Charles said gravely “Giant Rock Nika. These beasts sometimes move underground. No wonder the detector didn’t pick it up. Be careful. These beasts…”

Before he finished, the ground trembled again.

“Ju-ju!”

Another Giant Rock Nika leapt from underground.

Caro and Charles felt a chill in their hearts. Without a word, they began forming hand seals.

Qiao Sang, sorry. Looks like we’ll have to delay finding you…

Char stared seriously at the two Giant Rock Nikas before him.

---

Qiao Sang glanced around her environment and finally relaxed a little, letting out a breath.

She turned to speak to Lubao but was met with Little Treasure's big face.

“Xun Xun~”

“Xun Xun~”

Little Treasure rubbed his head again his Beast Master’s head affectionately.

He had been so, so worried!

You were so worried you zapped me…

Qiao Sang pushed Little Treasure's head away with a blank expression. She didn’t want to talk to him right now.

“Xun Xun…”

Little Treasure was pushed aside, stunned, showing a hurt expression.

Qiao Sang’s lips twitched.

“I just got out of the ice… still feeling a bit unwell.”

“Xun Xun…”

Little Treasure believed her instantly. The hurt look vanished, replaced with a

good thing I shocked you in time

expression.

Qiao Sang: …

“Lu…”

At this moment, Lubao let out a depressed cry.

Qiao Sang looked over and immediately softened.

“I’m fine. It’s just that the place I first teleported to was bad, it happened to be in the range of your Ice Flower Seal.” Qiao Sang comforted.

“Xun Xun?”

Little Treasure tilted his head.

Why does that feel like a dig at me?

“Lu…”

Lubao’s tail drooped. That explanation didn’t lift her mood at all.

Qiao Sang wanted to say more, but suddenly, she noticed the surroundings had become eerily quiet again, not even the sound of insects.

She looked around. The shadows of the trees swayed, but she had the feeling that something was watching them.

Wild pet beasts again…

Realizing this, Qiao Sang didn’t waste a second. She began forming hand seals to summon Yabao and Gangbao.

Soon, the two appeared from the star array.

“Yap Yap…”

Yabao lay on the ground with its eyes closed, occasionally grinning in his sleep, clearly having a sweet dream.

“Gang Guard…”

Gangbao seemed to sense something was wrong. Her eyes opened, and after seeing the unfamiliar environment, she quickly stood at her Beast Master’s side.

Look at that…

Qiao Sang gave a disappointed look at the sleeping Yabao and said: “Little Treasure, lick.”

“Xun Xun~”

Little Treasure floated over to Yabao, stuck out his tongue, and gave Yabao’s face a big wet lick.

“Yap…”

Yabao’s expression twitched like it was having a nightmare. Then he rolled over and smiled peacefully again, continuing his sleep.

“Xun Xun…”

Seeing this, Little Treasure couldn’t help but look impressed.

Qiao Sang: …

Just then, Gangbao seemed to sense something. Her body trembled, and over a dozen feathers lit with purple light shot toward a nearby tree trunk.

Bang bang bang!

The purple feathers pierced the tree, shaking the leaves and riddling it with holes.

In the flashes of movement, Qiao Sang caught sight of thin white silk strands floating in midair.

She was stunned for a moment. As she looked closer, a pink-headed, pink-bellied spider-type pet beast about 30cm long with a horn on its head crawled out from the tree trunk.

Then came another, and another… ten of them…

Countless spider-type pet beasts crawled out from all directions!

They didn’t crawl along the ground but instead seemed to walk in the air, gathering in midair step by step!

Qiao Sang took a deep breath, trying to stay calm.

Focusing her vision, she noticed that the trees were connected by white silk threads.

These threads crisscrossed to form a dense web that nearly covered the entire sky!

“Xun Xun!”

Seeing so many bug-type pet beasts, Little Treasure got spooked. His eyes started glowing blue, ready to teleport.

“Don’t go!” Qiao Sang said seriously.

“We’re staying to fight.”

Low-level pet beasts, Stealth Hunter Spiders, and in such numbers, they’re the perfect targets for farming points!
