Protagonist:
Shen Yao
Once the constantly tense emotions were slowly eased, it was inevitable that the human body would produce psychological fatigue.
Shen Yao was no exception; the surge of adrenaline had made her forget the difficulties, but when the environment returned to peace and tranquility, the drowsiness surging from within could no longer be avoided.
The formation disk beside her was functioning normally, so Shen Yao simply lay on Xiao Guai and fell asleep.
She slept for a long time; Shen Yao was not awakened by the surrounding situation, but was woken up by her parched stomach.
Exactly how long had she slept?
She raised a hand to scratch her head, Shen Yao looked down at her phone screen, then was frightened into jumping up quickly to organize her backpack.
Oh no, oh no!
From falling asleep to waking up, three days had already passed; adding the necessary time to cross the dense forest, tsk, she couldn't delay any longer.
"Xiao Guai, hurry!"
Shen Yao endured the spasms caused by hunger in her stomach, forcibly took out a handful of pills from the space and stuffed them into her own and Xiao Guai's mouths respectively.
At this time she couldn't care about the heartache over the pills' efficacy; saving lives was more important!
With a meow, Xiao Guai immediately rushed out, accelerating continuously along the direction they had come from initially.
After rushing like this for three consecutive days, Shen Yao finally saw the shadow of the edge of the dense forest.
Rubbing her bloodshot eyes, Shen Yao patted Xiao Guai's cat head, "Stop."
"Meow"
Falling from the broad back onto the ground, Shen Yao didn't care about the dust on her clothes, directly sprawling in a big character shape on the grass-scented land.
Seeing the fat-tailed squirrels hopping around, Xiao Guai couldn't help but dig with her claws, then with a swoosh, directly activated hunting mode.
"Host, wake up quickly, something really happened!"
The system was like a ghost, omnipresent, wishing it could shout Shen Yao awake.
"Even if the sky falls, there's a tall one to prop it up; what's there to fear?"
Shen Yao's tone was calm; at this moment she had absolutely no energy to spare; even if the sky really fell, she wouldn't frown more.
System:...
"Host, Cui Hengxin is dead; your child hasn't even been born and has already successfully lost their father; are you really not going to pay attention?"
Shen Yao:...
Shen Yao didn't even open her eyes, only slowly replied with an "oh".
"Host, your answer is too cold, isn't it? Cui Hengxin is dead, the person is gone!"
"Isn't this a matter of sooner or later?" Shen Yao answered lightly; whether it was her complexion, expression, or tone of voice, there wasn't the slightest emotional fluctuation.
"Cui Hengxin's character design was destined to lead to a life-and-death showdown with Cheng Dong."
"Cheng Dong is trouble you personally certified; Cui Hengxin can't fight him, it's very normal."
This was just like the villains in novels; their purpose of existence was to push the plot forward, creating all sorts of hardships for the protagonist, thereby achieving the protagonist's glorious future.
"After all, he's the future child's father; I can't just watch the children's father-killing enemy continue to live and be an eyesore."
"Here's what we'll do: you keep a closer eye on Cheng Dong; the Cui Family will definitely find him; by then, just reveal everything we know; as for the rest, it's up to the Cui Family to handle it themselves."
Shen Yao had already opened her eyes; her beautiful pupils looked toward the space above her head; although the interior of the dense forest was dark and damp, the soothing and safe environment could still relax her mind.
The smile at the corner of her lips disappeared in an instant; Shen Yao used slightly seductive words to coax the system, "These are all your strengths; presumably you also don't want to see a difficult enemy appear in the future, hindering us from completing our mission."
The system and she existed for the purpose of the mission; once the mission failed, they would no longer exist.
System:...
After resting safely for one night at the edge of the dense forest, Shen Yao left early with Xiao Guai.
The dense forest behind them gradually receded; before their eyes was a boundless plain grassland.
Having the system locate Zhou Lan and the others' exact positions, Shen Yao lay on Xiao Guai, spending a day and a half to successfully meet up with the three.
"Shen Yao"
When Zhou Lan saw Shen Yao, she was gnawing on her own biscuit; she happily cared about her friend's body, and with lingering fear recounted their three days of anxious life these past days.
It turned out that the chaos Shen Yao had personally experienced by the lake, Zhou Lan and the others also deeply understood.
"At that time, the entire secret realm rumbled; we relied on hiding in Xiao Tu's abdomen to narrowly escape disaster."
"Everywhere were wild pet beasts running around, and many trampling accidents occurred."
"The communication device briefly had a signal; it was a text message reminder sent by the teacher, warning us absolutely not to approach the center of the secret realm; it should be that the gnawing rat group over there had something happen."
"..."
The three didn't know much content, but it didn't hinder them from using their brain holes to supplement each other.
Shen Yao sat at one side listening, holding the biscuit Zhou Lan had stuffed to her in her hand.
"Xiao Guai and I passed through the dense forest and saw a group of Mountain-Moving Turtles living in the mountain range area; originally thinking of taking a few turtle eggs to earn some capital, but then an accident suddenly happened in the lake; in the end, we only took two."
Speaking, Shen Yao opened her backpack zipper, revealing the two basketball-sized turtle eggs inside.
Zhou Lan and the others were both surprised and envious; no wonder Shen Yao's backpack looked bulging; it turned out what was inside were the eggs of Yellow Tier Mountain-Moving Turtles.
These were genuine good things; selling a single egg would cost seven figures; after all, the price difference between Mortal Tier pet beasts and Yellow Tier pet beasts was tenfold, and between Yellow Tier pet beasts and Xuan Tier pet beasts was even more terrifying.
As for Earth Tier pet beasts higher than Xuan Tier and even Heaven Tier pet beasts, sorry, priceless but no market; simply couldn't be bought.
Zhou Lan couldn't help but swallow her saliva, looking at Shen Yao with admiring eyes, "You, you actually managed to bring back Mountain-Moving Turtle eggs successfully; awesome."
Chang Lei was also extremely surprised; who didn't know how rare Mountain-Moving Turtle eggs were; placed in an auction house or private transaction, they could easily be sold; even encountering a buyer willing to spend a lot of money, eight figures wasn't impossible.
After all, the gap between the various ranks of pet beasts is far larger than imagined.
Having a decent contracted pet beast not only increases a Beast Tamer's survival rate, but also adds to the possibility of a Beast Tamer advancing further.
"Shen Yao, these two turtle eggs, are you interested in selling them?"
Tian Qing opened her mouth to ask, thinking to herself that she had plenty of uses for them, but the other people at home could also consider it in advance; one must know that encountering egg-type pet beasts is a matter of chance, not something one can seek, and even if it doesn't work out in the end, she loses nothing.
Shen Yao pondered for a moment, then shook her head in the end. "We'll talk after we get out."
Shen Cheng and Shen Ying at home are only sixteen, but what needs to be prepared must be arranged in advance.
Whether in terms of skills or potential, the Mountain-Moving Turtle is very suitable as an initial pet beast; Shen Yao intends to cultivate her younger siblings, and with six more in her space, there are enough whether to sell or keep for herself in the end.
Tian Qing nimbly conveyed her wish to purchase to Shen Yao, and stated that price was not an issue; if Shen Yao has the same idea, they can contact her anytime after going out.
Zhou Lan and Chang Lei: ……
The two of them are really envious, but they have no money, so thinking about it is useless.
Shen Yao smiled and nodded, reorganized her backpack, and placed it next to Xiao Guai.
For the next few days they didn't go anywhere, just moved about on this plain.
When thirsty they went to fetch water, when hungry they went to hunt; after that faint, intermittent pull appeared, the four hurriedly organized their things and left the Secret Realm smoothly one after another.
Amidst a spinning world, Shen Yao's figure appeared in a tall dense forest.
Her arm was suddenly hooked by someone at her side; Shen Yao showed no reaction on the surface and led Zhou Lan away.
"Xiao Guai"
"Meow"
Xiao Guai handed the backpack containing the turtle eggs to Shen Yao, and picked up the cat rope in her mouth.
"Shen"
"Don't speak, get on the bus first."
Shen Yao reminded Zhou Lan to watch her words; the two people and two beasts returned to the school bus near the outer area and found seats toward the back to sit down.
Phew
"Shen Yao, there are so few people who came out this time."
Compared to when they went in, it's simply a mere handful.
Although people are still coming out in a steady stream, just looking at that flow of people, tsk tsk tsk, Zhou Lan didn't know what to say; anyway, she was rejoicing in her heart that she was alive and safe, and hadn't become a pile of bones.
"Wait until we get back and rest well first; this practical training ends with the allocation of internship locations, then a holiday to wait for the internship," the internship ends with graduation, which also means they will formally leave Beast Taming University.
Shen Yao closed her eyes, didn't think about the Secret Realm matters, but was pondering when the Cui Family people would arrive.
It seems this holiday she indeed cannot return to Chun City; staying in Yang City can ensure no accidents happen, otherwise leaving a serious latent threat…… Shen Yao's hand unconsciously touched her abdomen, tilted her head, and fell into a deep sleep.
When she opened her eyes again, she was already riding the school bus back to school; Shen Yao and Zhou Lan handed in their respective practical training missions, then returned to the dormitory they hadn't returned to for a month.
Untied the cat rope to let Xiao Guai move freely, Shen Yao simply tidied up the room.
Didn't go out to eat, but extravagantly spent money to order a takeout delivery.
"Meow"
Delicious, delicious
Xiao Guai has had a very bitter time this past month plus, food and drink were uncertain and she occasionally went hungry; now back in the dormitory the whole beast is frolicking along.
Shen Yao also feels she hasn't had it easy; although the System Cheat can solve most problems, when encountering danger she still has to rely on herself to cope.
No discomfort in the abdomen, the whole person looks very spirited, but Shen Yao knows these are all appearances; once the body relaxes, she will sleep even more dead than in the Secret Realm.
"Xiao Guai"
"Meow"
Lying on the bed she called Xiao Guai over; Shen Yao buried herself in the furry thing, her nose enveloped by the scent that set her heart at ease; her hand hadn't stroked Xiao Guai a couple of times before she directly fell into a dead sleep.
…………
Shen Yao had a bizarre and beautiful dream; she knew it was all fake, but this relaxed and carefree atmosphere made her linger unwilling to leave.
Meow meow meow
She heard a cat's cry, very familiar, very anxious, it's Xiao Guai ah.
Xiao Guai?
Shen Yao abruptly opened her eyes, directly facing the giant cat head that had leaned in close.
"Meow"
Owner woke up
"Xiao, Xiao Guai"
Shen Yao's throat was hoarse and she couldn't speak, her whole body limp and without strength; she forced the corners of her mouth up in a smile, and still relied on the System's alchemy pills to gradually recover.
The phone displayed the few remaining time, and many unread messages from classmates and friends; this time she slept for three days again.
Hiss
Raised her hand and rubbed her forehead, had the System check her body once, Shen Yao got up, poured a cup of clear water, tilted her head back and gulped it down.
Body reawakened, Shen Yao moved her arms left and right, then took her phone to the sofa and replied to the contents one by one.
At the same time, Xiao Guai's energy ration was also poured into the cat bowl.
"Eat"
"Meow"
Shen Yao turned her back to Xiao Guai, eyes indifferent as she looked at the death list posted in the group.
This Secret Realm practical training, the death toll is nearly half, and even quite a few Beast Taming Class Two students.
Shen Yao saw Cui Hengxin's name among them; as for Cheng Dong, he is heavily injured all over and undergoing treatment.
'How exactly did Cui Hengxin die?' Cheng Dong's Copper Bone Ant fundamentally couldn't hurt him.
【Big Shots fighting, innocents caught in the crossfire,】the system said Cui Hengxin's scheme failed and he ended up framed instead.
Gnawing Rats chased them, Double-Winged Birds arriving behind chased the Gnawing Rats, and in the chaos a large group of Mountain-Moving Turtles wandered in; Cheng Dong surviving was all down to Protagonist Halo, everyone else was trampled into a pool of mud.
【Cheng Dong pulled some small tricks, Cui Hengxin was provoked and jumped into the pit himself, and with the Yang siblings helping cover it up, this matter will probably be ruled an accident.】
After all, wild beasts and pet beasts going out of control can't be blamed for not understanding human speech, can they?
【That's content from the original plot; now that we're in it, you just need to tell the Cui family everything about the secret realm exactly as it is.】 They don't need to worry about anything else—the Cui family will settle accounts with Cheng Dong and the Yang siblings.
The system blinked its eyes, 【If Cui Hengxin dies, the Cui family won't be reasonable at all.】
Shen Yao smiled faintly, 【If the Cui family were reasonable, how would the Villain Persona be established?】
Who knows, Cheng Dong might be following the leveling-up, face-slapping, harem-collecting route—leveling up through plot, face-slapping through the Cui family, and the harem through Red-Faced Confidantes. She's stood on Cheng Dong's opposing side from the very beginning; why wouldn't she strike first? (She never admitted she was a good person)
【Cheng Dong isn't innocent, you said it yourself—his control ability is somewhat unorthodox.】 Who knows what trouble things not on the right path might bring in the future? If dealt with early, losses might even be recovered.
System:...
The system had nothing to say, because what the Host said wasn't wrong.
Cui Hengxin was a dandy who disregarded life, and Cheng Dong wasn't an innocent little white either—both were half a catty vs eight taels, just one counted as the main character and the other as the villain.
【Watch Cheng Dong closely, don't let him escape.】
After reminding the system three times to mind its proper business, Shen Yao then focused on herself.
The school's practical training ended, related courses were all drawing to a close, and internship arrangements were delivered to the teachers' hands.
When Shen Yao received her internship notice, the school had already announced the holiday began; students of their cohort only needed to complete the internship content, and they could smoothly graduate and receive their graduation certificates half a year later.
「Beast Taming Alliance」
Bearing in mind the main body on the notice was in place, Shen Yao carried her packed luggage, brought Xiao Guai, and took the school bus back to Yang City Center.
The Beast Taming Alliance is an official department under the Alliance; its external window is the Beast Taming Center, which can both release and accept tasks, and also participate in secret realm activities.
In short, everything related to Beast Tamers can find its corresponding content within the Beast Taming Alliance.
One-third of Shen Yao's Beast Taming University classmates had internship units at the Beast Taming Alliance, the rest distributed among the Patrol Team and Government Officials; if nothing unexpected happened, they could directly enter employment in the future.
