”Holy s.h.i.+t, a Level 145 Heaven Rank pet…” I was overjoyed. Xinran really was a generous giver. Who would've thought that a solo quest would reward me with a Heaven Rank pet?
Although the Purgatory Thunder Beast's rank was slightly lousier than the Phantom Wolf King's, it was still incredibly powerful. At the current market, this pet egg would sell for 5 million gold at least. The average person couldn't even dream of getting such an item.
But I had no plans to sell the pet egg. There were many other ways to earn gold, and pets were a rarity at this stage of the game. Currently, most tamers were more or less stuck with useless pets, and anyone who had a Dark Gold Rank boss pet was considered OP. This Thunder Beast was even better than He Yi's Firelight Mouse or Lin Yixin's Ice Fox, so I had to consider this carefully!
In the end, I decided to give it to one of my dear sisters, Beiming Xue. She was Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls' strongest ranged damage dealer, and she could definitely use a powerful melee pet, be it for grinding or PK. With the Thunder Beast driving back the enemy away from her, she would have a much easier time kiting the enemies. I could only think of a handful of players who could escape her wrath.
While I was handling the Purgatory Thunder Beast pet egg, I suddenly realized that our Lil Beiming just got three treasures in a row. I eagerly look forward to her growth, hehe!
……
Xinran beckoned the resurrected knight captain Mengchuan to her side and promised to make him a commander of the Violet Empire. The man himself looked forward to leading a powerful cavalry once more. The Violet Empire's goal was to fight against the Night Creatures and protect the land of the living, and Mengchuan's hatred for the Night Creatures could only be described as bottomless. Naturally, they were a perfect fit for each other.
”We're leaving now,” Xinran tilted her head slightly and said to me.
I nodded. ”Mn. Take care, Xinran. You absolutely must stay safe, okay?”
”I know…”
Xinran smiled slightly before jumping onto the Winged Silver Dragon's back. Then, she disappeared from my view in the blink of an eye. Riding an undead knight and following her on the ground, Mengchuan too vanished from my view in the blink of an eye. Dammit, high-level knights are just too good!
I checked my level and noted that my experience bar was 75% full. I was just 25% away from hitting Level 150 now. Once I leveled up to 150, I could perform my sixth promotion quest and gain a mount slot. The day I become a high-level knight is very close now!
It was time to go back. I took out a return scroll and crushed it in my hand!
Swhoos.h.!.+
After returning to Sky City, I looked around and called out to Beiming Xue. It wasn't long before I found her sitting cross-legged at a corner of the eastern plaza, selling her stuff. Her stall offered all sorts of top-tier equipment, but only 10% of the customers around her were really gunning for her goods. The rest were just there to check out her white thighs. I even saw someone licking their lips and lamenting ”Ai, if only she was wearing black stockings, and not leather legguards…”
”These motherf.u.c.king animals…” I thought to myself while squeezing through the crowd. I mean, sure, I myself was thinking the same thing, and in fact I was one of the few people who got the honor to see Beiming Xue in black stockings, but that was besides the point, wasn't it? Anyway, Beiming Xue was a cold-resistant girl who could wear black stockings even during the coldest of winter and terrorize the people with her beauty.
……
I walked up to her and gave her a smile. ”Beiming, put away your stall and come with me, will you?”
”Okay!”
Beiming Xue's lips curled upward as she put away her stall quickly. Then, she rose to her feet and hugged my arm, saying, ”You're finally here, big bro!”
”Yep. C'mon, let's find somewhere quieter.”
”Okay!”
And so I led Beiming Xue away under the murderous gazes of the male players. After we arrived at the back of the holy temple, I finally started a trade with her.
First, I took out the Dragonbone String. The arc was shaped from the bones of a dragon, and the string was made from the tendon of a dragon. Faint draconic roars could be heard from it from time to time. The glowing bow contained a tremendous amount of power, and Beiming Xue looked overjoyed the moment she touched it. ”OMG, this… this is incredible! Big bro, I love you!”
Beiming Xue then stood on her toes and gave me a strong kiss right above the chin. Oh, this is bad for my heart.
Next, I pa.s.sed her the Bone Eroding Arrow skill book and said, ”This skill book lowers the target's Defense by 50%. From now on, you're a super boss killer as well!”
Beiming Xue beamed at me and said again, ”Love you, big bro! Hehe~~”
There was a flash of light, and the skill book was absorbed into Beiming Xue's body. Finally, I took out the Purgatory Thunder Beast pet egg. Of all the things I was going to give Beiming, this was clearly the best of all of them!
”This one's for you as well, Beiming. You were lacking a powerful pet all this time, but not anymore!” I pa.s.sed over the Purgatory Thunder Beast smilingly.
Beiming Xue s.h.i.+vered and stared dazedly at the egg. She didn't say anything for a very long time.
Then, she suddenly grabbed without warning and dragged me toward the adventurer's inn. Then, her avatar started disappearing from my view. She logged off?!
”Hmm? What is she planning to do?” I exclaimed in surprise.
A few seconds later, I heard a ”tok tok” sound from my helmet. What the f.u.c.k? Who's tapping my gaming helmet?
I hurriedly logged out and took off my gaming helmet. Before I could even sit up from my bed, I felt something soft and fragrant hugging me tightly. ”I love you, big bro…”
Oh no, did Beiming Xue's love for me finally burst through the dam in her heart?
