Chapter 14: Save Dahui!

~7 min read 1,351 words

"As for student He Qingyuan, you voluntarily used your own Resource Box as a wager and lost it to Ye Bai."

"I confirmed it with you repeatedly at the time, but you didn't take it seriously."

"Now that you have lost, according to the terms of the agreement, your Resource Box and the other wagers will be handed over to Ye Bai."

Zhang Lingxue said decisively.

This time, the He Family's actions had crossed Zhang Dashan's taboos; he would severely discipline the He Family to make an example of them.

He Qingyuan was just about to say something when his phone suddenly rang; he took a look and saw it was actually a call from his father.

His hands trembled, but he dared not refuse to answer.

"He Qingyuan, get back here immediately."

"You actually stole my Invitation Letter for the Longteng Auction House and caused such a huge mess."

"See if I don't skin you alive."

An angry voice erupted from the phone.

He Qingyuan looked devastated as he released the Resource Box from his Pet Beast Space.

He didn't even glance at the Boxing Rabbit, walking toward the school gate with a swaying gait.

There was one more dejected person in the world.

This Boxing Rabbit seemed to have been abandoned by him on the spot.

Zhang Lingxue released the Guangming Nüshen Die, and a milky-white light fell upon the Boxing Rabbit, causing its entire body to emit a crackling sound.

After a short while, it opened its eyes and woke up; it looked around, but seeing no sign of He Qingyuan, its mood became somewhat low.

At this moment, a white light flashed across the Boxing Rabbit's brow; He Qingyuan was taking his anger out on the Boxing Rabbit.

He had actually proposed to dissolve the contract between himself and the Boxing Rabbit.

Although the Boxing Rabbit was somewhat dejected, the white light in its brow dissipated into countless specks of light.

Both parties reached an agreement and voluntarily dissolved the contract; Zhang Lingxue let out a long sigh.

After obtaining the Boxing Rabbit's consent, she collected it into a Beast Card.

He Qingyuan abandoning his own Pet Beast in public, whether intentional or unintentional, would be punished by the school.

This Boxing Rabbit would likely be sent back to the Secret Realm to select a new Pet Beast Master.

A Boxing Rabbit that has awakened the Berserk skill does not lack a market.

"Don't worry, Ye Bai, your pet shop has not been sealed; He Qingyuan was just trying to scare you earlier."

"At the same time, our school also guarantees that such things will absolutely not happen again in the future."

"The school will protect your legal rights and interests from being infringed upon."

Zhang Lingxue said hurriedly, trying to appease Ye Bai to avoid further escalation of the conflict and to prevent social unrest.

Ye Bai looked deeply at his Class Teacher, seemingly knowing something.

The He Family must have been warned by Shenshan Middle School; they would not pull any small tricks in the short term.

He checked his watch; it was already nearly twelve o'clock noon, and the Thousand-Change Silkworm looked wilted, starving to the point of being skin and bones, and was looking at him with a mournful gaze.

It wanted to eat, lots and lots of food.

"Thousand-Change Silkworm, wait a moment, we will be back at the pet shop to eat very soon."

Ye Bai hurried to a welfare station, where he bought the only 10-yuan scratch-off ticket.

After confirming he had won, he left the lottery welfare station silently and headed toward the pet shop.

There were a few white spots at the entrance of the pet shop; those were traces left behind from hastily tearing off the seal.

This showed that the He Family was not joking; they had truly intended to seal the pet shop.

A cold look appeared in Ye Bai's eyes; Dahui did not come to pull open the gate to welcome him as it usually did upon hearing his footsteps.

Moreover, the pet shop, which usually had noisy sounds, appeared quite quiet today.

Could it be that Dahui and the others were really taken away by the people from the Street Management Office?

Or were they scared into hiding by the people from the Street Management Office?

Ye Bai calmly used his key to open the iron gate of the pet shop.

The shop entrance was empty; the Thunder Pig, which usually liked to lie on the ground and grunt, had disappeared, and even the Chameleon, which usually liked to pretend to be invisible as if nothing were the matter, was gone.

Ye Bai felt a sense of foreboding; his brow twitched wildly, as if something bad had happened.

He rushed to the backyard, where the Pet Beasts of the pet shop were gathered in a circle, and right in the center was Dahui.

Dahui's figure was emaciated, its fur falling out in clumps and lacking its usual luster.

The Pet Beasts all lowered their heads one after another, tears silently flowing from their eyes and forming small puddles.

The Lightning Cat adopted yesterday had already opened its eyes, and it was licking Dahui's fluffy cheek with its small tongue.

It meowed, seemingly confused as to why Dahui had collapsed on the ground and wouldn't get up.

It wouldn't even open its eyes to look at it.

Dahui lay on the ground motionless, its body stiff, and its eyes already closed.

Its fur had turned white, just as it was when Ye Bai first met Dahui.

At this moment, it looked quite disheveled, not like the clean Dahui from before.

Its fur was messy, there was a bleeding wound on its forehead, and there was a trace of scattered dirt on its face.

It lay quietly on the ground like a broken toy, a warm smile still hanging on the corners of its mouth.

Ye Bai walked over step by step, seemingly unable to believe that Dahui had just left like this; he did not believe Dahui would leave without saying goodbye.

There was a chip in the flowerpot of the sunflower; it seemed that Dahui had wanted to say goodbye to the sunflower he had cared for the longest, but had fainted and hit the flowerpot, causing the chip.

The Pet Beasts helped turn Dahui over together.

Only then did Ye Bai realize how thin Dahui was; beneath its thick fur, it was nothing but skin and bones.

A trace of memory flashed through his eyes; Ye Bai quietly held Dahui, wanting to accompany Dahui on his final journey.

Suddenly, Ye Bai jerked his head up, a flash of surprise in his eyes; Dahui still had a faint breath, though it was so weak it seemed as if Dahui would stop breathing the very next second.

Dahui is still alive!

Dahui can still be saved!

Ye Bai looked up with a face full of surprise.

That's right, the Life Spirit Seed, the Life Spirit Seed.

Ye Bai could no longer care about anything else; he released the Resource Box.

This square box took up quite a bit of space in the courtyard.

A Life Spirit Seed radiating a verdant green luster appeared in Ye Bai's hand.

It contained vast energy within it.

Yet, once the Life Spirit Seed was taken out, Ye Bai fell into confusion again.

He had absolutely no idea how to use this legendary-grade treasure.

That's right, the Insight Eye.

Ye Bai, usually incomparably calm, disregarded the risk of his eyes potentially going blind.

He forcibly activated the Insight Eye, his pupils turning blood-red instantly.

The Dahui before him was still shrouded in layers of gray mist.

Ye Bai felt a blinding, intense light stabbing into his eyes.

But he still struggled to persist, fresh blood flowing down from his eyes.

He could feel the mist dissipating, while at the same time, Dahui's aura was becoming weaker and weaker.

Finally, at the moment he closed his eyes, he obtained the information he wanted.

Begging for votes.
