Chapter 544 - Bursting with Luck (2/2)
As expected, the frisky monkey shot a resentful gaze at Zhang Che the moment he appeared. Just as he was about to call out “Baba,” Zhang Che decisively stopped him through a spiritual message.
It would have been so shameful if Huang Tielan heard him…
Huang Tielan had a face full of shock when she saw the frisky monkey appear. “This is the little guy you mentioned? He’s as tall as me even when sitting, alright? If this is considered a little guy, what is your idea of a big guy?”
Indeed, the current frisky monkey stood over two meters tall, his weight heavy and his waist round. He had a fierce appearance; he truly didn’t fit the term “little guy”.
Zhang Che met Huang Tielan’s confused gaze and sighed, explaining, “Let’s dig in… You have no idea. This little thing actually wasn’t like this in the past. He consumed some spiritual herbs, evolved afterwards, and grew into that. He really doesn’t look pleasing to the eye, no matter how I look at him.”
Upon hearing Zhang Che say dig in, the frisky monkey quickly grabbed a handful of meat and stuffed his face full before Huang Tielan could do anything.
As for the matter about his master daddy having a change of heart… well, that wasn’t important compared to delicious food.
“Ah, this guy moves so quickly!” Huang Tielan gasped and hurriedly joined in on the fight for food.
Due to the addition of the frisky monkey, that little bit of meat the elemental queen had roasted wasn’t enough at all. As such, Zhang Che took out another pile of meat from his spatial storage, then applied some spices and spiritual honey on them and shoved them to the elemental queen.
The elemental queen didn’t complain. After taking all the meat, she swiftly started roasting again.
The elemental queen truly was the most hardworking pet. She was pleasing to the eye and capable, not to mention her combat prowess was unusually high. There truly wasn’t any better pet around.
Zhang Che looked at the frisky monkey again. Comparing one thing with another was really dreadful. There was too much of a difference between the frisky monkey and the elemental queen.
Well, a certain fellow seemed to have forgotten that it was precisely because of the frisky monkey that he had obtained a huge number of spiritual herbs on his path to becoming strong, and so quickly increased his strength.
People always favored the new over the old.
After eating her fill after much difficulty, Huang Tielan seemed to have thought of something. She suddenly asked with her eyes beaming with light, “Oh, right. You said you have someone who can find spiritual herbs. Could it be this guy?”
Done speaking, she hinted at the frisky monkey with her gaze.
Zhang Che blinked a few times, then answered, “Yeah, it’s this guy. His innate ability is sensing the fluctuations of spiritual force. He can detect the presence of spiritual herbs nearby.”
Huang Tielan immediately jumped up from the ground and cried out excitedly, “Really? Then let’s set out quickly and let him use his ability. Let’s scavenge the spiritual herbs in this area!”
Zhang Che tilted his head and pointed at the dying dozen or so mid-tier exotic beasts, saying, “Hmm, you’re becoming fickle-minded now. You don’t want to kill these exotic beasts and not want to advance to Tier Four beastmaster already?”
Huang Tielan immediately showed a pleading expression and said cutely, “Zhang Xiaoche, I’m really tired and can’t move anymore. Can we just take it as relaxing for a bit? Also, your subdued beasts capture exotic beasts so quickly; there’s no need for us to be in such a hurry. I can advance to Tier Four beastmaster successfully in a few days at the most!”
Well, Miss Tienan even used the godly technique of acting coquettishly. Zhang Che had no choice but to go with her whims.
Speaking of which, striking a balance between leisure and work wasn’t bad, either. If he was in her shoes, he’d also find it sickening if he had to kill exotic beasts non-stop.
Thinking of it that way, Zhang Che no longer said anything about the matter. He beckoned the frisky monkey over, but didn’t order him to use his skill. He had the frisky monkey sense his surroundings with only his innate ability and soon discovered several reactions nearby.
Even without using his skill, the current frisky monkey was able to sense the spiritual fluctuations within several kilometers. Zhang Che only needed to show Huang Tielan the frisky monkey’s miraculous ability; that was more than enough.
However, the situation this time around seemed a little different.
After the frisky monkey was done sensing his surroundings, he immediately grew excited and pointed southwest, nearly crying out loud. Luckily, Zhang Che stopped him in time and strictly ordered him to not say a word in front of Huang Tielan, keeping his secret. It would have been too sensational if an exotic beast started speaking human.
Huang Tielan grew a little suspicious when she saw the frisky monkey acting so unusually excited. She asked, “What happened, Zhang Xiaoche? Did he discover something unusual?”
Zhang Che showed a radiant smile and nodded, saying, “Mmm. I didn’t expect our luck to be this good! We actually discovered a top-grade spiritual herb here, so close to the safety zone!”
Huang Tielan immediately grew excited as well and said loudly, “Woah, we really discovered a top-grade spiritual herb? Then let’s go over quickly!”
As a genius beast card cultivator, Huang Tielan knew the value of a top-grade spiritual herb very well. How could she sit still after hearing Zhang Che say that the frisky monkey had discovered one? She immediately urged them to go in the direction the frisky monkey had pointed out.
