His tamer level was definitely not below D-class, and he might even be a C-class tamer who passed the league’s certification.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he really was a C-class tamer, no matter where his beast was on the mountain, as soon as he moved, he would be able to sense it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if they made it down the mountain, he could still detect it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dragging him down the mountain was out of the question, and her Little Treasure hadn’t returned yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang’s head hurt. She wasn’t usually this impulsive. It felt like she’d been acting rashly lately.Was it because of the company she kept?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yap!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao’s bark pulled Qiao Sang out of her thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yap yap.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao barked loudly at her, as if asking if he should set the man on fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes shone brightly, eager and ready for action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No! Even though he’s not a good guy, burning him to death isn’t the right answer. We should leave this to the police.\" Qiao Sang quickly stopped him, worried that Yabao might act impulsively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao tilted his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Would it really kill him?He had thought it would just knock the man out like in a fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zi?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the Magnemousess approached, looking at the tied-up man with confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang thought for a while, but without a better plan, she took out her phone and tried calling the police again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello, this is the 660 emergency service desk. Your call is being recorded.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It went through!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang was startled, and quickly said, \"This is Qijiang, Huangmin Mountain. Zhou Xian, the A-class wanted criminal, is here. Hurry and...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beep, beep, beep...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before she could finish, the call cut off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sweltering summer heat, combined with her adrenalized state, had already soaked her back with sweat, but now the air suddenly turned cool, sending a shiver down her spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A shadow loomed over Qiao Sang’s head. She instinctively clenched the phone in her hand, slowly looking up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qijiang Town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Police Station.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello, this is the Qijiang County Public Security Bureau, Qijiang Police Station.\" The operator answered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"......\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Qijiang police station had two teams, and one team was on duty every day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The on-duty officers were split into two groups: Office and street patrol officers, and incident officers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first group handled cases and responded to calls during the day, while the second group was on call 24\u002F7 to respond to emergencies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But since most people in Qijiang Town were ordinary citizens, and those who became police officers were generally beast tamers, one team was usually enough to handle most cases.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was rare for both teams to be called out at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, both teams were fully mobilized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four police cars, three flying-type beasts — a Fat Dove, a Wind Eagle, and a Flame Whistlebird, were all heading in the same direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the Wind Eagle:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you think Guangbei jinxed us? He mentioned Zhou Xian, and now here he is, right in our jurisdiction. Just our luck.\" A middle-aged woman sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are we really equipped to take down Zhou Xian? His file says he’s a C-class beast tamer with two general-level beasts.\" Ye Ranran expressed her concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We're not.\" The woman replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The middle-aged woman paused for a moment before continuing, \"Ideally, we should just monitor Zhou Xian’s location until higher-ups can deal with him, but the caller’s phone can’t be reached.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a moment of silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, Ye Ranran said, \"I know it’s not the right thing to say, but my cousin was at Huangmin Mountain a few days ago. Luckily, she didn’t run into him and came back safely.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, I heard the caller was a girl. I hope she’s okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huangmin Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang looked up and met the gaze of a pair of purple eyes staring intently at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the Stone Helm Spirit!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where was her Little Treasure?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang glanced around, just in time to see her Little Treasure wobbling out from behind the Stone Helm Spirit. His gray face was flushed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He floated slowly over to Qiao Sang, found a comfortable spot on her head, and lay down, closing his eyes like he had had too much to drink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least he's safe...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang sighed in relief, waving her right hand to send Little Treasure into the Beast Codex for the first time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Stone Helm Spirit squinted its purple eyes, then looked at its master, lying on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His head had a large bump, and his hands were bound. He looked even worse than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Helm! Helm!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Stone Helm Spirit cried out angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its purple pupils suddenly contracted, and its eyes lit up with a violet glow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, its figure disappeared. The ground beneath where it stood turned black, and the darkness quickly spread outward, stopping at a radius of about four meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang’s heart sank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the skillDark Night Feast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike Dream Eater, which consumed a sleeping target’s dreams to restore energy, Dark Night Feast dragged awake targets into the night and caused them harm, recovering energy for the caster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was essentially an upgraded version of Dream Eater skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang’s expression grew serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What should she do?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao was no match for the Stone Helm Spirit.Was she going to be defeated here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe she could still trick the Stone Helm Spirit with a bottle of milk like before...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, all the milk was in her Little Treasure's storage ring…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Qiao Sang frantically tried to come up with a solution, Yabao suddenly jumped onto the man’s body. His mouth opened, and his sharp teeth were covered in flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yap!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yap yap!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao lowered his head toward the man’s neck, eyes scanning the surroundings, and growled threateningly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qiao Sang stared in shock at Yabao’s actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What the hell!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since when did her pure and innocent Yabao become so... clever?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where did he learn this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It felt like she had seen this move somewhere before...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Magnemouse mother and child next to her were also struck by a sense of déjà vu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Helm!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Helm!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Stone Helm Spirit quickly reappeared, panicked that its master would be killed if it delayed any longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yabao, just stay in that position!\" Qiao Sang said excitedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yap!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yabao kept his head lowered and barked in response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He understood, this ghost beast had to surrender, just like the Magnemouse had.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Withdraw your skill.\" Qiao Sang demanded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Helm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Stone Helm Spirit nodded, and the blackness on the ground slowly faded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now, give me whatever you’re using to block the signal.\" Qiao Sang said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had been able to make a phone call earlier, but when the Stone Helm Spirit appeared, the signal suddenly disappeared.
