Chapter 35 (1/2)

After turning many corners, they finally reached a relatively secretive place.

From the outside, Treasure Cove was still as rustic and simple.

But as soon as one entered the place, they would be immediately drawn into the strange atmosphere, finding it difficult to extricate themselves.

Liu Ran deliberately kept a low profile. After all, he had come to find a pet. He did not want to end up like the previous time where his Evening Moon Vine’s passive skills book had been taken away by others.

Compared to him, Chen An was more collected. His eyes scanned the surroundings, and the system worked hard to identify other beasts.

He had to admit that Treasure Cove was indeed full of treasures.

The people that walked about carried beasts that were at least medium-grade and higher.

After seeing countless beasts, Chen An’s eyes suddenly lit up. He had found it!

The beast that the person right in front of him had was what he had in mind—the Wind-Dwelling Egret!

Chen An looked at that person’s back. She was of a smaller frame and was shorter than Chen An. She had long flowing hair, and a small bell hung around her thin waist, making slight sounds as she moved.

She was a young lady. Judging from her appearance, she was not afraid of drawing attention to herself. She walked about the Treasure Cove in a high-profile manner. She did not seem to have a target in mind but was only looking around, treating it as an auction.

Chen An walked forward quickly and reached out to pat her shoulder.

The young lady turned around. She had an extremely adorable face.

She was smiling, with cute dimples on both sides of her cheeks. “Are you here to challenge me?”

There was no doubt that even though she was shorter than Chen An, she did not show a trace of fear. Instead, she seemed to be expecting someone to take the initiative to challenge her.

Liu Ran was exasperated. Chen An went to provoke others when he was not paying attention. He looked to be in agony and regretful as he hurriedly walked over. “Sorry, my buddy is—”

“Let’s follow Treasure Cove’s rules.” Chen An interrupted Liu Ran.

Liu Ran could not stop him in time. He clutched his head, sensing a headache acting up. Everyone in Treasure Cove had undiscovered talents. He could not figure out why Chen An would take the initiative to challenge them.

Although the other party seemed like a harmless young lady, he should not be rash as well.

“Really? My name is Feng Ling, don’t underestimate me.”

“I won’t underestimate you.” From the system, he could tell that this young girl’s Wind-Dwelling Egret was a high-grade beast, embedded with a high-grade wind attribute attack spirit core.

Its passive skill was Wind-Dwelling. It could strengthen one’s control of wind attribute attacks.

She carried a skills book: Commanding the Winds and Clouds. It would launch continuous wind attribute damage to the target, with a short-range repelling effect. During this period, the second stage of attack could be launched to immediately stagnate the target, temporarily depriving the target of any action.

No matter how he looked at it, the young lady was not to be underestimated.

Feng Ling smiled sweetly and tilted her head in front of Chen An. “Don’t blame me for bullying you.” Her earrings with little bells jingled.

It was still not certain who would be at a disadvantage.

Regardless of Liu Ran’s persuasion, Chen An and Feng Ling stepped onto the battle stage one after another.

Both parties confirmed their bets. Feng Ling seemed like a child who was up to great mischief, demanding an exorbitant price. If Chen An lost, his beast would belong to her.

Chen An’s request was to extract passive skills from the Wind-Dwelling Egret after winning.

Feng Ling rolled her eyes. “Little Brother, let me remind you. Even for the strongest Skills Book Creator, many skills are impossible to extract and create. So far, no one can create a skills book from my Wind-Dwelling Egret. If this doesn’t work—”
