Seeing the two act as if no one else was around, so intimately, the maid’s worldview was shattered once again.
Young Miss, you should at least pay attention to your image!
The maid was having an internal ltdown.
"Yip?"
Bika hopped out from the back of the car, its small face etched with imnse confusion.
It had gone to the trunk to eat ice cream. What on earth was happening? What was Master doing?
The adorable young fox was utterly bewildered.
After a minute, Lias finally let go. She wiped her rosy lips, satisfied as she observed the wound healing.
Chu Yi was speechless.
Why does it feel like I’ve just had a large mouthful of blood drained... Is Lias a Vampire?
"What’s the matter? I personally healed you, and you look unwilling?" Lias puffed out her cheeks, folded her arms, and huffed.
"Thank you, Miss." Chu Yi’s lip twitched, but he managed a smile.
No matter what species she is, from now on, she’ll be his girlfriend. They’ll walk through life hand in hand. Besides, isn’t a Monster Girl a bonus?
The two enrolled in the academy together, but Lias, as an elite of the Starfire Sequence, departed first.
Chu Yi went to visit the old dean, unsure how he would be assigned next.
"Senior Chu Yi?!"
As Chu Yi openly entered the academy, countless students recognized him imdiately. His six-tailed Bika had beco his trademark, after all, drawing too much attention.
"To take on three Golden Beast Tars and win—who else could it be but our senior!"
"Senior, can I have your autograph?"
"Senior, my little Tom Cat is sick. Could you co over to my place tonight to take a look, please?"
"..."
Admiring students flocked around, all eager to witness Chu Yi’s impressive presence.
The battle in the mine had made him famous overnight.
Chu Yi had instantly beco the top celebrity in Yaoguang City. He was a Demon-level individual who owned a King’s Cub, his fa rivaling that of Naruto Uzumaki, who had recently contracted a nine-tailed fox.
No one had expected that the boy, who had been obscure for two years, would skyrocket to prominence in just about a week! This accomplishnt was truly astonishing. Just one week after contracting his Pet Beast, he had surpassed the lifeti achievents of countless Beast Tars.
Only a very small minority felt jealousy; the vast majority were filled with envy and admiration. After all, having earned the recognition of a King’s Cub, was Chu Yi truly just a fortunate individual who had stumbled upon a treasure by chance?
"He’s here."
Yuan Qiu leaned against a peach tree. This was the very spot where the young man used to sell potions, and where I first t him. But now... he has soared to beco a top-tier Demon, while I no longer even feel qualified to stand by his side. I can only look up at him from afar.
"I never expected this, I really never expected this..." Zhang Feng stood in the crowd, his face a mask of dejection.
As one of the top ten experts in the third year, I was utterly crushed by Chu Yi that day. My Rock Guard was smashed, and all he left with was the sight of his solitary, proud retreating figure. I thought that by diligently practicing my cultivation, I could catch up. But then, out of nowhere, how did he suddenly get a King’s Cub and beco a Demon? Great. Now I can’t even see his retreating figure anymore.
Zhang Feng was thoroughly depressed.
The gap in strength between us is so vast. Perhaps the next ti I see him, it will only be on the news.
The other top-ten experts, upon hearing the outco of that battle where Xiao Chen, one of their own, was crippled, were all deeply wary of Chu Yi.
Yet, at least we can still try to catch up; he isn’t invincible. But not long after, it was as if we woke up one day to find he had beco a Beast-Controlling Demon! In the mine battle, he annihilated three ambushing Dusk Beast Tars. This is just... We aren’t even Silver rank, yet he’s already taking on Gold ranks! And he did it with overwhelming force, practically scattering the ashes of those Golden Beast Tars! We’re trembling in our boots...
To live in the sa city, in the sa era, with such a person was both a blessing and a curse. It was like a firefly daring to compete with the brilliance of the moon!
"Go back, all of you! Don’t you have classes to attend?" a group of teachers scolded, determined not to let the students use celebrity-chasing as an excuse to skip.
Director Yang himself then pushed through the crowd, taking Chu Yi’s hand. "The Dean has been waiting for you for a long ti. Co with ."
WHOOSH!
He activated a Pet Beast. With a flicker of his form, the surrounding environnt began to distort. Thick darkness surged upwards, accompanied by insidious whispers.
Chu Yi frowned and turned to look at Director Yang. The man’s pupils seed to swirl with flecks of black light, and he kept his head bowed, silent. anwhile, Bika, on Chu Yi’s shoulder, was ensnared by a black net, unable to exert any strength. Its golden-brown vertical pupils glared angrily at their assailant.
"You’re not Director Yang, are you?" Chu Yi sighed.
Why do people always want to harm and seize my Pet Beasts? They don’t really think I’m an easy target, do they?
"ROAR—"
The sound seed to emanate from the imposter. The mont Chu Yi finished speaking, the hand gripping his arm began a grotesque transformation, flesh and blood twisting into root-like tendrils crawling with crimson veins.
"You’re very calm. Not like a typical youth at all," the person masquerading as Director Yang said, his voice strangely flat. His face began to fester, revealing a pair of ghastly green, glowing eyes. His mouth stretched into a grin that reached his ears, and he couldn’t help but burst into wild laughter. "A King’s Cub is not sothing a re commoner like you can possess. Why not voluntarily break the contract? We might even spare your life. Sotis, being an ordinary Beast Tar is a good thing. Wouldn’t you agree?"
He spoke with an air of confidence as a vast, disorienting mist enveloped them, obscuring their figures and their location. He possessed a psychic-type Pet Beast capable of inducing fear to force his targets into submission.
"May I be so bold as to ask which faction is behind you?" Chu Yi inquired, a strange expression on his face. "Don’t you know I’m the Qin Family’s son-in-law? Elder Qin is my maternal grandfather. You dare to kidnap ? Can you withstand the wrath of a Morning Star Beast Tar?"
Upon hearing this, the imposter posing as "Director Yang" froze, a montary stiffness evident before he sneered coldly, "A re Dawn Star who’s practically got one foot in the grave? What’s there to fear? As long as I take your cub, I too will beco a Dawn Star in the future!"
Chu Yi shook his head and continued, "Moreover, I am an adopted son of the Janet family. And just monts ago, their Young Miss agreed to be my girlfriend. I trust you’re aware of the Janet family’s influence, right?"
"’Enough crap! You’re stalling for ti, hoping for rescuers from the academy, aren’t you?’ the imposter ’Director Yang’ snarled, his large hand splitting into a dozen tentacles. ’Just die!’"
Chu Yi sighed. I’ve always preferred peaceful resolutions. Why must people always force to go on a killing spree?
"My Pet Beast, Bika, upon seeing its master in danger, will have a burst of power, break free from its restraints, and counter-kill the opponent."
The mont his words fell, the rules seed to manifest.
BOOM—
Bika’s orange-gold fur rippled. Strands of Crown Fla billowed like ribbons as it shattered the black net. Then, with a claw wreathed in Crown Fla, it descended like a teor and slamd into the imposter "Director Yang."
"How is that possible?!" The imposter "Director Yang" was aghast. This is a Gold-grade Treasure! Even a King-level Pet Beast would be restrained for a while! How could it break free so quickly? Multiple factions sponsored this ambush. Otherwise, how could I alone have infiltrated the academy to ambush a Beast-Controlling Demon?
SPLAT!
His entire body was obliterated by the claw strike, exploding into countless fragnts!
