Chapter 129: Chapter 27: Strange happenings at Guard Peak [Two updates today]_1

"Wuu wuu wuu..."

"Stop crying."

"Wuu wuu wuu..."

"The Golden Fur Beast is not a bad thing, it’s our best friend."

"Wuu wuu wuu..."

"If you stop crying, I’ll take you to eat something delicious."

"Wuu... What to eat?" Liu Xiaoyu raised her face, immediately showing full anticipation.

Well then, that’s the most effective... Chu Liang saw that she finally stopped crying, he let out a sigh of relief.

Just now, the master and disciple rode back on the Golden Fur Beast. As soon as they landed, they were spotted by Liu Xiaoyu. The little girl was scared to tears when she saw this huge beast suddenly appearing at Silver Sword Peak.

Seeing this, Empress Feng massaged her forehead, "Women are the most troublesome when they cry. You comfort her, I’m going to rest."

Before her voice fell, her figure had already turned into a streak of fire and slipped away, leaving Chu Liang, unprepared and a innocent, big-headed beast behind.

"We’re eating hot pot." Chu Liang answered casually. However, after being away from Shu Mountain for several days, he was indeed craving a steaming spicy pot.

Only then did Liu Xiaoyu stand up from the ground, pouting, "I don’t like spicy food..."

"Mandarin duck, mandarin duck." Chu Liang repeated.

The Golden Fur Beast at the side also showed a smiling face, as if it understood that it was about to eat something delicious, so its big head cheerfully raised up.

"Why are you happy, it’s not your share." Chu Liang said to it heartlessly.

It’s not that they abuse their pets, but that the Golden Fur Beast’s appetite is indeed too big! It was kept at the First Class Scabbard for one day, which shocked all the disciples.

They said they gave it a mountain-like pile of meat before going to bed at night, and when they woke up the next morning, they saw it stealing iron to eat from the storeroom...

Chu Liang had reason to suspect that this guy had been raised in Ten Thousand Beasts Hall for ten years, and the money it had eaten off might be more than Xu Nanling’s deficit.

As Chu Liang raised his hand, the Golden Fur Beast laid down its big head for him to stroke, and made a low wailing sound. It quickly accepted Chu Liang after recognizing Empress Feng, including the newly met Liu Xiaoyu.

Spirit Beasts don’t have any major issues in terms of intellect.

Although it looks simple-minded, Chu Liang always felt this big-headed beast was quite wise, and if tested, its IQ might even be a bit higher than Empress Feng’s...

"Why don’t you feed it?" Liu Xiaoyu asked. Although she was scared by the big-headed beast just now, but seeing that this big guy was quite gentle now, the little girl’s heart softened.

She stretched out her hand, cautiously touched the Golden Fur Beast’s drooping nose, it was soft and warm.

The little girl and the big-headed beast shared a smile.

"Because it’s a Spirit Beast." Chu Liang sighed helplessly.

Indeed, raising such spirit beasts is a common dilemma, because the spiritual energy and energy needed for their growth far exceeds normal demon beasts. In Pill Furnace Hall, there are special spirit beast feeds for sale, which are concocted from a mixture of spirit meat and spirit plants. One piece is enough for a demon beast to eat for a day. But if it is a spirit beast, it may need to eat ten times as much.

How to afford this?

"Do all spirit beasts eat a lot?" Liu Xiaoyu asked again.

"Yes." Chu Liang nodded, suddenly a flash of inspiration in his eyes, "Wait..."

Right.

Spirit beasts do eat a lot.

He looked at Liu Xiaoyu and suddenly said, "Thank you, Little Yi! Golden Fur Beast, follow me!"

"Huh?" Liu Xiaoyu was confused: "Thank me for what?"

Thank you.

A careless remark that unlocked my doubt.

...

Guard Peak.

The green mountains are solemn, and the vegetation is lush.

This is considered the most primitive and well-preserved peak of Shu Mountain, because this is where the Zhenshan Guardian Divine Beast, Baize, resides.

The adult Baize has not shown itself for many years and is nowhere to be seen. Nowadays, Guard Peak only houses a lonely left-behind child.

Perhaps it was because he was lonely that the Little Baize kept going out to find friends to play with.

He initially had only one fragrant friend, who he would visit each month at Pagoda Peak. However, he later met another friend whose scent was strangely familiar, as though they had met when he was a child.

With these two friends, he had plenty of fun times. However, both of them were already grown-ups in their teens with a lot of responsibilities... Unlike him, who was merely a cub of less than six hundred years.

At a time when Little Baize was incredibly bored in his forest at Guard Peak, he suddenly caught a familiar scent. Shortly after, he heard a call, "Little Baize, are you home?"

It was him!

Little Baize recognized Chu Liang’s voice. Whoosh! In a flash, his body transformed into a beam of white light, appearing right in front of Chu Liang.

Chu Liang was standing in an open space on Guard Peak, accompanied by a beast with a big, silly head.

Little Baize rushed over to Chu Liang. Just before he licked him, he noticed the Golden Fur Beast behind Chu Liang, hesitated, and glanced cautiously at the beast.

Chu Liang quickly gestured, "Don’t be scared, I came today to introduce you to a new friend. Golden Fur Beast, go and shake hands with him."

At his command, the Golden Fur Beast obediently held out its thick right paw.

Apart from being gentle, it was obedient because Chu Liang had told it beforehand that its future meals at Shu Mountain depended on its performance today.

Eating.

That was an important matter.

Taking the initiative to shake hands was not beneath the beast.

After all, the Golden Fur Beast was a Spirit Beast, with a slightly lower social ranking than Baize. However, upon seeing the friendly gestures from his side, and with the presence of Chu Liang, the Little Baize dropped his guard and happily bumped his horns against the paw of the Golden Fur Beast.

"Hehe, we are brothers now that we know each other." Chu Liang patted his chest, "Let’s eat together."

The Golden Fur Beast nodded repeatedly.

Little Baize also gave a rather satisfied "grunt" and began doing circles around Chu Liang, expressing his joy.

"This is your place, so you should be the host." Chu Liang petted Little Baize’s head trying to gently coax him.

"Grunt!" With a swoosh, Little Baize seemed to indicate that it was not a problem. He turned around and led them towards a different direction.

"Follow me!" Chu Liang leapt onto the Golden Fur Beast’s back, and the beast roared with pleasure: "Roar Roar Roar..."

On the road to fill their bellies, the wind blowing against them also carried delightful aromas.

Wait, it was indeed delightful!

What a delicious smell.

Little Baize led them past a mountainous forest to a very spacious open-air structure.

This basic structure consisted of four large pillars supporting a roof and resembled a gazebo. It seemed to be constructed entirely out of white marble, exuding a purity and radiance.

Underneath the gazebo was a hill of jade-white elixirs. It not only looked spirit-refreshing but also had an extremely soothing fragrance that reached halfway up the mountain. Alongside the primary elixirs, there was also a large pile of spirit plants and fruits, which appeared to be of higher quality than the berries Chu Liang sold.

Upon seeing this, the Golden Fur Beast couldn’t hold back its excitement. Its huge head kept leaning forward, while its claws began furiously digging at the ground.

The food provided for the Zhenshan Guardian Divine Beast by Shu Mountain was naturally the best in the mortal realm. Both in terms of spiritual energy and taste, it was absolutely top-notch. The Golden Fur Beast probably had never had such delicious food in its life.

Not just the Golden Fur Beast, even Chu Liang wanted a taste after seeing it.

He glanced at Little Baize, "Shall we start eating? After we eat, we can go out and play."

"Grunt!" Little Baize didn’t seem to mind. He tossed his head as if to tell his friends to enjoy themselves.

Chu Liang stopped being reserved, gestured at the Golden Fur Beast, "Eat quickly, eat lots! Pack what you can’t finish in your cheek pouches... take them as a midnight snack!"

...

The next morning.

Two disciples from the Pill Furnace Hall descended from the clouds and walked towards the White Pavilion next to Guard Peak. As usual, one of them began pouring out a constant stream of white-colored elixirs from a gourd, and the other took out a large pile of spirit fruits from a magical storage tool.

But just as they started working, they suddenly seemed puzzled.

"Huh?" said one of them on the left: "Usually, Little Baize eats only half a pond of Spirit Feeding Pills a day. How did he finish them all today? There’s not a single one left!"

"I’ve noticed the same thing with the spirit fruits. Little Baize didn’t even eat those in the past. The Pill Furnace Elder used to complain about its unhealthy eating habits, but... none are left today. Not only that, but the tiles at the bottom of the pond have also been licked clean!" The one on the right added.

They both found this baffling.

"What an oddity!"
