However, it was trickier than pointing to any random creature, such as the Eye Demon or the Bat Wing Demon in Ye Hanjun’s pocket. GuaGua couldn’t just shape-shift successfully right away.
It needed a degree of familiarity.
And—a degree of interest.
GuaGua was willing to explore the Eye Demon and the Bat Wing Demon.
But when the Doomsday ssenger was summoned, the little one watched for half a day, and it was clear from its deanor that it was not interested.
Of course, this was not the most bizarre part.
GuaGua could not only transform into living things, but inanimate ones too!
When it unintentionally turned into a bathtub, the corners of Ye Hanjun’s mouth twisted again and again.
This size, this volu... wasn’t it the exact replica of the one in the bathroom of the 233 villa?
Had it morized the bathtub because they bathed together every day?
Then wouldn’t the kettle used to seal it be able to change as well?
"Quack!"
GuaGua transford into a kettle exactly the sa as the original.
Even better, it could change into the Blood-Sucking Dagger. When used forcefully, it couldn’t trigger the blood-sucking effect, but its sharpness was similar.
"Are you trying to defy heaven?"
"From today onward, when you’re learning human language, take on my form, and when learning the witch language, change into Huazhu’s form. It might help in understanding languages faster..."
"Other than that, focus more on acting skills..."
"When the need arises for you to deceive others with your appearance, your acting skills will be tested, everything else is not that important..."
...
After a series of transformations, GuaGua revealed rare signs of exhaustion.
Keep in mind that even when it used the chanism Water Gun continuously, it didn’t consu as much energy.
"Yiye..."
GuaGua changed back into tadpole form and voluntarily hopped into the kettle, transford into a rock, and fell fast asleep.
Ye Hanjun pondered for a while, establishing a developnt strategy for the future, then shifted his gaze to the snake egg.
It seed best to eat this Human-Faced Demon Snake egg.
Depleting too many resources and ti to raise a future Fond Spirit that couldn’t form a contract was unnecessary.
No matter how powerful the Human-Faced Demon Snake was, it would only be powerful at this stage.
Once Ye Hanjun reached the third rank, whether it was Huazhu, GuaGua, or Mo, once any one of them broke through to beco a Jade Infant Fetus, they would probably be unmatched among their ranks.
With that in mind, Ye Hanjun no longer hesitated.
He placed the snake egg in a sack and slung it over his shoulder.
Though it was a bit heavy, the toughness of the eggshell was comparable to tal, so he didn’t have to worry about it breaking easily.
...
Half a day later, Ye Hanjun successfully left the belly of the mountain.
During the day, the dense forest which blocked out sunlight still produced a dark atmosphere.
The Strong Acid Spider was readily visible, and the countless nibbled remains stretched out the danger of the forest.
Since he was going downhill, Ye Hanjun’s pace quickened slightly.
After going through a few small-scale battles, the Chaos Burial Village built by relying on the mountains had finally entered their sight.
"Sir, you’re finally back."
Qin Hou, who was on patrol, put down his longbow and took a deep breath.
It took Ye Hanjun a week to climb the mountain; if he didn’t return, there was a 99% chance he would et with so misfortune.
Being able to return now implied that his strength was unfathomable. They couldn’t underestimate his combat strength just because he was a Scholar.
"Has the village chief returned?" Ye Hanjun asked.
"He has," Qin Hou nodded, "The old man risked a lot, went into the Demon Spider’s nest and successfully stole a precious dicine."
"Yu’s spider poison has been cured. What’s left is recuperation."
"Even if her lifespan can’t reach a normal person’s, we’ll ensure she has no worries about food and clothing. Sir, you don’t have to worry about her."
"That’s good."
Ye Hanjun entered the village with Qin Hou, t with the old village chief.
The centenarian actually had the strength of a third-rank. No wonder he could ensure the safety of the village.
Ye Hanjun exchanged a few pleasantries with him but did not engage in lengthy conversations.
Upon leaving the village chief’s house, he went to the backyard and found Lao Liu, who was leisurely munching on wild fruits.
"Yo, eating quite happily?"
After a week of care, the six-legged Cow Horse had gained about ten pounds and was clearly quite comfortable.
"Hui hui... Moo!"
Lao Liu sniffed his sleeve and its eyes softened instantly upon recognizing the familiar sll, becoming as ta as before.
"Giddy up!"
Ye Hanjun got onto the horse, waved at Qin Hou and Qin Yong, and galloped along the path they had taken before.
...
By the ti he returned to the academy, it was already five days later.
This trip away from ho had taken a total of seventeen days.
Ye Hanjun had thought that such a long ti would cool down his popularity at the North Campus.
Unexpectedly, there was no change in that aspect at all.
As soon as they were near the city gate, people recognized the six-legged Cow Horse.
By the ti he reached Canghai Pavilion, within half a day, it seed as if everyone knew he was back.
Ye Hanjun took a bath, slept soundly, and woke up refreshed.
The next day, he went to the course selection hall to reactivate the cooking course.
At noon, he went to the Cross Old Street to sell the materials he had gathered during his trip in batches and replenished his consud supplies while he was at it.
In the afternoon, he arrived at the training hall. Shortly after, there was a knock at the door.
"Master Han."
Wearing a disguise, Wang Xinfei revealed her combat attire when she took off her coat.
"Did Li Jingming and Su i go hunting? I haven’t spotted them all morning," Ye Hanjun asked.
"Yes, your return wasn’t well-tid."
Wang Xinfei replied:
"It’s their second ti out hunting. They just left two days ago, so they will only return after three to five days."
Ye Hanjun nodded and said:
"Alright then, get ready for a one-on-one special training today. Be prepared to be beaten."
"Yes!"
