Chapter 746 - Pet Human (1/2)

“Savior!”

Xiang Yangyan and the elders walked up to Xiao Luo with friendly smiles, acknowledging him as their savior.

Xiao Luo nodded to them.

“Hey, Xiao Yanzi. Can this teleportation portal take us to the Stan City that is tens of thousands of kilometers away?” asked Duck Emperor. He had sized up the portal and did not feel convinced that it was reliable. How was such a thing possible?

Xiang Yangyan staggered when he heard Duck Emperor addressing him as Xiao Yanzi. He almost fell to the ground. However, since it was Xiao Luo’s pet beast, he let it slide.

He nodded and explained, “The sacred place of the Light Clan spent hundreds of years building many such portals in the Arcana Land. They deployed these portals with configurations that are top secret. These devices certainly can achieve long-distance transportation.”

“Okay. So, it is the sacred place of the Light Clan who invented them. No wonder they are so amazing. But I bet they will need an enormous amount of energy to transport people to such a remote place in a split second,” said the Duck Emperor. He patted the shell of the teleportation portal with his wings and acted as though he was an expert on the matter.

Xiang Yangyan explained patiently, “Of course. The elders of the Ziyue Cave Heaven and I have to channel a vast amount of True Inner Force into the portal from time to time to keep it in running condition. Usually, we only get some business people and sect members from Ziyue Cave Heaven using the portal to go to the Stan City. Most of the common folk live ordinary lives. They would not even think about traveling to a strange place that is so far away. So, they seldom use it.”

Nodding, the Duck Emperor said, “Makes sense.”

“Once we walk into the teleportation portal, we will arrive at the Stan City?” asked Xiao Luo straightforwardly.

“Yes, but be careful about one thing. Please do not use your True Inner Force during the transmission. It will affect the operation of the transmitting configuration. If you perform the True Inner Force, you might deviate away from your original destination. There might be other risks as well,” warned Xiang Yangyan.

“There has been an accident before. A man thought it would be fun, so he hit the light wall during the transmission. And the force of the space tore him into pieces,” said an elder.

The Duck Emperor freaked out and asked, “Mother ducker. Is it that dangerous?”

“It is not dangerous as long as you do not unleash the True Inner Force. It is super safe.”

Patting his chest, Zuo Xiangming guaranteed them. He continued, “I have used this transmitting formation over fifty times. Nothing has ever happened to me.”

“The condition not to use the True Inner Force would only apply to you humans. What about me?” asked the Duck Emperor worriedly.

“Do not worry. Pet beasts can travel through the teleportation portal safely with their owners,” said the same elder with a smile.

“Pet beasts?”

The Duck Emperor was so pissed off. The feathers on its head stood on ends when he heard himself referred to as a pet beast. Flapping his wings, he jumped up and shouted at that elder. He said, “Who is a pet beast? It is you! And your entire family are pet beasts!”

Two days ago, in the main hall, another elder had also referred to the Duck Emperor in the same manner. At that point, the duck had tolerated him. After all, it was not appropriate to get so angry. However, he certainly would not put up with being called a pet beast again.

Eh?

The duck’s behavior had puzzled the elder. He did not know what he had said wrong. Was there a problem with calling it a pet beast?

The Duck Emperor flew into a rage, pointed at Xiao Luo, and said, “He is the pet beast. Oh, no, he is a human pet… my human pet. Open your eyes wide. Do not make this mistake again.”

Human pet?

The name that Duck Emperor had labeled Xiao Luo with amused the members of the Ziyue Cave Heaven.

Kicking the Duck Emperor, Xiao Luo scolded, “What nonsense are you uttering? Shrink yourself immediately so you can stay in my pocket.”

Xiao Luo did not want to appear in public with a one-and-a-half-foot duck. It would attract too many curious gazes.
