Next.

After Gu Xing helped Cecilia take control of the situation, he retreated with his mission accomplished.

However.

He did not choose to leave immediately.

After all, Fei Yue had told him earlier that there was a way to mediate the conflict between Vera and Liu Li.

It's best to resolve gaps between Guardian Beasts as soon as possible.

Therefore, Gu Xing decided to stay here for another day.

On one hand, to give Fei Yue time, on the other hand, he needed a break for his tense nerves after these busy times.

Summoning Liu Li and Vera, Gu Xing issued a command:

"Today, you will follow Fei Yue!"

Upon hearing the command, the combative Liu Li and Vera instantly froze.

Leave the master?!

This command was the first-time Gu Xing had issued.

Almost at the same time, both objected, two voices nearly echoed simultaneously.

"No way!"

Before the words fell, they continued to glare at each other, making the air seem to spark invisibly.

Seeing this scene further solidified Gu Xing's resolve.

Resolving the conflict between the two has become urgent.

But without a better solution, he could only place his hopes on Fei Yue.

"It's decided, this is Blue Star, there isn't any danger."

"Moreover, with Lilith and Qing Shuang by my side, we can handle any unforeseen events."

He paused, sweeping his gaze between the two Guardian Beasts:

"You two stay here today, and follow Fei Yue's instructions."

After saying this, not giving the two Guardian Beasts a chance to speak, Gu Xing turned around and left.

Watching Gu Xing's departing figure, the two instinctively wanted to chase after him.

But Fei Yue blocked Liu Li and Vera's path.

Fei Yue nervously gulped.

Facing two sisters far stronger than herself, her legs were slightly trembling.

But thinking of her sister made her gather courage to speak:

"Liu, Liu Li sister, Vera sister, today...you have to listen to me!"

Her voice was as faint as a mosquito, with a pronounced tremor.

Even though she knew they wouldn't really harm her, if the two got angry, they could still give her a beating.

At such close proximity, even if she wanted to use Void Power to avoid, it was completely impossible.

Luckily, Vera and Liu Li, no matter what, would obey Gu Xing's commands.

Since the master instructed them to stay and follow Fei Yue's instructions, it certainly had its reasons.

"Fei Yue, did the master give any specific tasks, just tell us straight." Liu Li glanced at the tense Fei Yue and spoke directly.

Seeing the two so calm, Fei Yue sighed with relief.

Quickly, her heart started to race again.

Although she was well aware of the cause of the two's conflict, to resolve this kind of disagreement...

She didn't have a particularly good solution either!

The confident appearance she showed in front of Gu Xing earlier was merely an act.

"Fei Yue, is the task difficult this time? Why aren't you speaking?" Vera asked, seeing Fei Yue silent.

Although there was conflict with Liu Li, Gu Xing's tasks must be the top priority!

Fei Yue glanced between Liu Li and Vera, and in a moment of brilliance said:

"Actually..."

"Master is not very satisfied with you two's recent behavior, your constant clashes, master may not say it outright but is concerned inside..."

She sneaked a look at their reactions and continued to fabricate:

"So he wants me to mediate, my suggestion is... while the master isn't here, why not just settle a score between you two!"

Fei Yue's half-true-half-false words successfully convinced Liu Li and Vera.

After all, it's likely in Gu Xing's nature to issue such a command.

And recently, they were aware that their actions were somewhat excessive.

But neither would yield, leading to this situation.

Now, with the master absent, perhaps...

Almost simultaneously, both unleashed their might.

A furious aura shot skyward.

Fei Yue was stunned seeing the scene.

Though she meant settling a score, she didn't mean this way at all.

If they started battling now, this city wouldn't stand a chance.

"Stop, stop, stop! Not like this!"

Fei Yue waved her hands frantically, "The master specifically said no fighting!"

She panickedly looked around and suddenly spotted a nearby arcade.

"Use that! Use that to compete!"

Liu Li and Vera looked towards where she pointed, their eyes filled with fighting spirit.

Since they couldn't fight physically, they would settle it otherwise.

The two exchanged glances, tacitly withdrew their aura, and headed to the shop together.

Watching this, Fei Yue finally relaxed completely, wiped the cold sweat on her forehead, and jogged along.

...

Elsewhere, Gu Xing walked alongside Qing Shuang down a bustling street.

Gu Xing occasionally glanced back, worry etched in his brow.

Could Fei Yue, with her unreliable demeanor, really mediate between Liu Li and Vera?

"Qing Shuang, did Fei Yue share how she plans to handle it?" he asked casually.

"N-no!"

Qing Shuang's voice was a bit panicked, even slightly trembling.

Gu Xing didn't look back, so he didn't notice her odd expression.

At this moment, Qing Shuang's cheeks were slightly flushed, her eyes flickering, she seemed rather absent-minded.

This was the first time she had been alone with Gu Xing.

Though she often told herself just being by the master's side was enough, deep within, she still harbored a small bit of anticipation.

Since leaving the Ghost Race, she always cared for Fei Yue as a sister, gradually adopting a cold exterior as armor.

However, the longer she stayed with Gu Xing, the more her facade cracked, revealing her softer side.

The day Fei Yue suggested she and Gu Xing have time alone, though she verbally refused, she couldn't help but look forward in her heart.

And now, she finally had that opportunity.

"Master..."

Summoning courage, she gently tugged Gu Xing's sleeve, "Let's explore up ahead?"

Gu Xing, still preoccupied with Liu Li and Vera, nodded distractedly:

"Alright."

However, when he regained his composure, he realized Qing Shuang had led him somewhere not just an ordinary commercial street, but...

A locale for cultivating close bonds between Guardians and their masters.

To Guardian Beasts and their masters, this place had a more colloquial title...

The Date Sanctuary!

Meanwhile, in the Beast Taming Space.

Lilith rested her chin on her hand, curiously observing the outside world.

A power struggle among Guardian Beasts?

Interesting!

But such foolishness, she would never partakes in her life.

However...

Her hand unconsciously moved to her chest, brow slightly furrowed.

Odd...

Why was there a faint discomfort in her heart?

She looked at her palm, frowning deeper.

"Could there be something wrong with my body?"
