Beast Taming: the More the Better

Chapter 175: The Peach Blossom's Gift! An Easily Lit Illustration!


"Lady Peach Blossom, I want to go with you..."

The meaning behind this rustling sound left everyone present completely dumbfounded. Blinking, they looked at the new fruit that had just formed on the branch, unable to process what had happened.

Especially the people from Fire King Company, who were simply frozen in place. They then looked at Su Ping and the excitedly swaying, red-crowned Rouge Powder Peach Blossom Smile with great resentment.

What the hell is going on here?

They had just offered three Elite Level resources and even used a Commander Level resource to tempt the Rouge Powder Peach Blossom Smile, all to no avail. This time, Fire King Company had indeed come prepared with a multitude of items, even carrying two Monarch Level resources, but those were meant for the main event! Above them loomed a Life Ancient Tree! So, for everyone involved, the resources offered for the exceedingly precious Rouge Powder Peach Blossom Smile were already quite remarkable. Yet, not only did it refuse to leave with Fire King Company, it didn't even provide the slightest feedback.

And now, what the hell is this?

Was the Rouge Powder Peach Blossom Smile seduced by Breeder Su just standing here for such a short time?

Could it be that in this world, some things are just this unreasonable?

At this moment, they had an illusion. They felt like simps constantly groveling before a goddess, offering flowers, gifts, and making grand promises about the good life they'd have if she agreed, all in a demeaning manner. The result? The so-called goddess accepted all the gifts without a word, not even leaving a single sentence. She didn't even deign to give them a glance. Yet, this goddess, who had always been aloof, threw herself into the arms of a rich and handsome man the moment he arrived, opening her heart and even agreeing to go home with him late at night. And the rich and handsome man hadn't done a thing! This was exactly how the people from Fire King Company felt. Bitter. Too damn bitter. Who the hell could they even complain to about this messed-up situation?

Thus, they chose to shift their gaze to other 'goddesses.'

This 'gold-digging' tree simply wasn't worth their continued emotional investment anymore.

At this very moment, it wasn't just them; Xu Li, who had come along, felt the same.

Originally, I was confident, Xu Li thought. Fire King Company was far more prepared than Pingyun, which had newly taken over Da Chuan. We'd also received specific information about this forest beforehand, even sending people to scout it. The aim was to secure the rare plant-based Pet Beasts and, most importantly, the Monarch Level Life Ancient Tree born within this forest! The value of these Pet Beasts is unimaginable. Therefore, to ensure success, Fire King Company truly made a hefty investment. In my view, although Miss Dong from Pingyun and Su Ping indeed hold special statuses and have great prestige, when it comes to Pet Beasts, practical matters trump all. If the resources are sufficient, what can a few Breeders even do? In the end, the resources of this forest will still belong to Fire King.

But at this moment, Xu Li started to feel that something was amiss.

The arrival of Breeder Su, Jianghai's only Plant System Breeder, was one thing. After all, Breeder Su is rumored to have a mysterious background, a considerable heritage, and is highly regarded by the two Chairmen. It was expected they could invite Senior Breeder Shangguan. But what is this current situation? Senior Breeder Shangguan hasn't even made a move yet! Just by Su Ping standing in front of the Rouge Powder Peach Blossom Smile for a moment, this Commander Level plant-based Pet Beast has surrendered? What the hell is this all about?

Yes, at this moment, Xu Li, leading the team, and everyone from Fire King Company had only one thought.

Why, indeed!

Among those present, it seemed only a few knew why.

Shangguan Ye normally wouldn't have known, but his understanding of plant-based Pet Beasts was exceptionally profound. So much so that if he weren't so reluctant to handle some of the tedious matters within the association, he would have had the credentials and opportunity to be nominated as Vice Chairman of the Jianghai Association. Therefore, Shangguan Ye was almost immediately aware of it.

At this time, I feel an indescribable energy fluctuation emanating from that bizarre Old Wolf Su Ping is riding, gradually detaching from the nearby Rouge Powder Peach Blossom Smile. It was this Forest Wolf that caused it! Shangguan Ye immediately concluded.

But soon after, he fell back into confusion.

Is this the kind of ability a Commander Level Pet Beast should have? Is this creature really the Evolutionary Body of the Forest Wolf I'm familiar with? This makes no sense!

If Su Ping knew their thoughts, he would undoubtedly assert to them that even in the Beast Taming world, science matters. It was by using scientific methods that he had succeeded.

"Are you called Peach Blossom? It's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Su Ping," Su Ping said with a beaming smile, greeting the Rouge Powder Peach Blossom Smile before him.

Its branches swayed gently. Then, a huge Rouge Powder Peach, just formed by condensed energy, was delivered to Su Ping's palm by Peach Blossom.

"RUSTLE RUSTLE (Human... Beast Tamer, this is for you... Lady Peach Blossom likes you very much. That feeling just now, can it come again?)"

Su Ping smiled slightly. As expected, Old Sha's Language of Nature skill is the best lure for plant-based Pet Beasts. It can actively help them grow. For many plant-based Pet Beasts, this is an irresistible joy. After all, it's well-known that plant-based Pet Beasts find it hard to replenish their energy; they absorb energy slowly and grow at a sluggish pace. And every time the Language of Nature skill is used, it's like a huge boost for them!

However, he still shook his head. "If the intervals are too short, it can be harmful to your health. Once a week is best!"

"RUSTLE RUSTLE (Once a week... That's great! Lady Peach Blossom likes that feeling...)"

Su Ping now somewhat understood why, even in the Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas, the potential of the Wanmu Wolf was so highly praised. It isn't just about their Ability and race limit, but more importantly, the Wanmu Wolf's extremely practical and powerful Skills. I can even imagine that after the Wanmu Wolf is revealed at the Breeder Contest, the price of the Forest Wolf will likely see a significant increase.

Grasping the Rouge Powder Peach, Su Ping didn't think twice before biting into it. His eyes lit up. The taste of this thing truly lives up to its reputation!

"Peach Blossom, thank you! It's delicious, and I like it very much!"

Even if Pet Beasts are intelligent, most of the time, they're much simpler than humans. You should graciously accept what's given and let the giver see how much you like their present. This Rouge Powder Peach is a condensation of the Rouge Powder Peach Blossom Smile's energy. Although called a fruit, it isn't for reproduction or seeding but for consumption by other Living Beings.

So, seeing Su Ping thoroughly enjoying the peach, the Rouge Powder Peach Blossom Smile swayed its branches gently, clearly very pleased.

Meanwhile, Dong Muyun had approached and motioned for Su Ping to mark the Rouge Powder Peach Blossom Smile with Pingyun's emblem. After all, there were too many Pet Beasts here, and it was necessary to mark the ones they subdued.

"Peach Blossom, wait here for a while. Later, I'll take you and your companions back home."

"RUSTLE RUSTLE (Okay… Alright…)"

After placing the Pingyun Company's mark on the utterly compliant Rouge Powder Peach Blossom Smile, and once Li Shu had taken a few photos and completed the on-site records, Su Ping continued his search for the next 'prey.'

However, as Su Ping was tirelessly searching through the wilderness, Peach Blossom's voice sounded again, "RUSTLE RUSTLE (Su Ping... are you the one taking us away? There are so many of us here... Lord Life Ancient Tree is on the mountaintop...)"

Hm? Su Ping was taken aback. It really is the Life Ancient Tree.

But then again, what Peach Blossom said seems to make some sense, doesn't it? With so many plant-based Pet Beasts lingering in these hills and valleys, and with Old Sha around, the efficiency is certainly top-notch. However, Old Sha can get tired too. Using the Language of Nature skill also drains a lot of Energy. Despite bringing a good amount of Recovery Potions on this trip, my original plan was just to gather some rare and precious plant-based Pet Beasts, as a massive harvest would be somewhat challenging. But if I could directly take the Life Ancient Tree back, there'd be no need for so much trouble, would there? Peach Blossom is right—if I could persuade the Life Ancient Tree directly, wouldn't all the other plant-based Pet Beasts just fall into my hands? Nevertheless, relying solely on Old Sha's Ability and the Elf Wolf's Aura to subdue a powerful being like the Life Ancient Tree clearly isn't feasible. Of course, although I don't know much about the Life Ancient Tree, Shangguan Ye is by my side.

Engrossed in thought, Su Ping was completely oblivious to Xu Li and the Fire King Company members, whose eyes were twitching violently.

As if sensing Su Ping's hesitation and contemplation, Peach Blossom's branches swayed gently once again. "RUSTLE RUSTLE (Su Ping, take this... Lord Life Ancient Tree is very fond of Lady Peach Blossom... If Lady Peach Blossom leaves with you, and since Lord Life Ancient Tree is already considering moving, it will think about it...)"

Su Ping blinked.

The other Fire King Company members, who had just provided resources to Peach Blossom, felt their hearts shatter.

Damn it! Not only is it giving itself away, but now it's going to follow this guy and even give away its 'patriarch' and 'family fortune'? Who are we supposed to complain to? Is being handsome everything?

However, at that moment, as Su Ping extended his hand to accept the pink petal handed over by Peach Blossom, he seemed to freeze on the spot, making no move.

Because just then, the Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas in his soul effortlessly unfolded. The next moment, a Catalog he had never seen before slowly appeared before his eyes: the Catalog of the Rouge Powder Peach Blossom Smile.

But I never expected the Catalog of the Rouge Powder Peach Blossom Smile to be illuminated so easily! Su Ping thought.

However, he was then taken aback by the feedback from the Myriad Spirit Beast Atlas, which seemed different this time:

"The Catalog 'Rouge Powder Peach Blossom Smile' is illuminated. Current Level: 1. Received Origin reward: The effect of the Talent 'Telepathic Communication' has been enhanced (1/10)!"
