Chapter 1112

"I told you so—your sister would definitely come to participate in this competition. Whether she's a fox or someone is secretly helping her, this is her only chance."

Lin Cheng's face remained perfectly impassive on the surface—after all, it was within his expectations, nothing worth being surprised about.

"Catch up to her, her aura is getting weaker and weaker."

"No."

"Why?"

"We have to wait for Karo."

"That human child? He's of no use at all."

"It's a promise. Even if we catch up now it's useless—we can't possibly get in."

Lin Cheng's gaze looked forward. This was both the place where carriage guests entered, and the place where participants of the Battle Pet Selection Competition entered—only they went to different venues according to their different identities, that's all.

They were only spectators, without the identity certificate issued by the competition, so it was impossible for them to enter the competition's backstage area to find Little Red's sister.

The pink fox Little Red had no idea what Lin Cheng was thinking, only grinding her teeth in anger, both claws clutching hard at the hem of Lin Cheng's clothes.

Before long, Karo came running over, panting heavily.

"Don't rush, Karo, it's still too early, you don't need to be in such a hurry." Lin Cheng let Karo rest on the spot for a while; they'd set off again after a bit.

Karo took out the small water flask tucked at his waist and gulped down water. Only after drinking did he feel much better.

"Mr. Lin Cheng, Miss Gong, let's set off."

As the crowd gradually filed in, at the entrance to the arena two fork-in-the-road paths appeared, one to the left and one to the right. Lin Cheng's group followed the signs and entered to the left, while the road to the right was guarded—only personnel related to the Battle Pet Selection Competition could enter it.

"The aura really is heading in that direction, you can't get over there?" The pink fox's gaze looked toward the passage on the other side. In the magical beast's eyes and perception, her sister's aura seemed even stronger along that road—clearly she had been lingering there for some time.

"Unless you also want to be a combatant and enter the competition, but you're all alone, you don't meet the participation rules." Lin Cheng said and laughed.

If Little Red had beaten her sister back then and become the Green Fox King, wouldn't everything be fine now?

"What are you laughing at?"

"Nothing, let's go in quickly. I believe we should be able to see your sister at the competition very soon."

Lin Cheng had anticipated this sentence exactly right.

When they entered, found a spot in the middle and sat down, the Battle Pet Selection Competition in the venue had already begun its opening announcement. The Vice City Lord formally declared it open, and below were all the participants and each of their representative battle pets.

Before officially announcing the start of the competition, the Vice City Lord still had a tiny little speech to give!

He spoke about how the major sponsors of Beast Pen City had sponsored this competition.

"Third row, fourth seat, the one with the green fox on the table in front."

"Oh, is your sister the male one or the female one?"

"Bastard, what do you think?" The pink fox directly punched Lin Cheng's thick-skinned face with her claw, furious!

Lin Cheng awkwardly rubbed his punched face. Logically speaking, a magical beast could take human form as either male or female—there was no need to necessarily take female form. Male form was sometimes more fitting for the identity; even if the matter were exposed, it wouldn't be a big problem.

"Look at them… don't you think their relationship is very unusual?"

Lin Cheng and the pink fox's gazes fixed on the pink fox's sister. She wore a green long robe, gold and silver hairpins on her head, and a green veil over her face. Beside her was a human male; the two chatted and laughed, looking as if their relationship really was very unusual.

"What's wrong?" The pink fox didn't think there was anything unusual, only felt that it must be that man deceiving her sister.

It must be so.

"Fine, you're just a fox, you simply don't understand the love between humans." Lin Cheng sighed.

"What did you say! I wouldn't understand?" The pink fox was struck to the quick by Lin Cheng's words and became even more furious—because her sister had said the exact same thing to her, which made her very angry.

"Then do you know your sister might be in a romantic relationship with a human?" Lin Cheng saw the pink fox's sister seem to rest her head on the shoulder of the man beside her, and his heart instantly confirmed it. Even if he couldn't see her face clearly, he knew the pink fox's sister must be just as shy as Hui.

The reason was none other than this.

Miss Qianhui, listening to the Vice City Lord's speech, tenderly rested her head on Lin Cheng's shoulder!

In the venue, the man beside the pink fox's sister was also like this, draping his arm around her shoulder.

Resting one's head on the shoulder of the opposite sex in broad daylight was undoubtedly a statement and an announcement—announcing that one already had someone one fancied.

If this isn't romance, what is it?

"Holy shit!"

The already cautious Lin Cheng, seeing the pink fox about to go berserk, decisively stuffed the pink fox into the spatial bag. The violent aura flashed by almost instantly; to the people around it was only a sudden gust of wind sweeping past, then nothing else—showing how fast Lin Cheng's hands were.

In the venue, the pink fox's sister, nestled against her lover's shoulder, suddenly started. Just now, for an instant, she seemed to have sensed her elder sister's aura. She looked around.

"What's wrong? Yunshang."

The not-very-handsome man beside her called out tenderly.
