Chapter 91: Chapter 81: You Feather-Every-One-That-Flies Bastard!!!
The Mandala Grass King was fiercely disciplined by the Sunflower King.
Awakened to self-awareness, the Mandala Grass King is indeed precious, but its personality is too vile and refuses to be controlled.
To survive well as a member of the Cultivation House, one must first keep its mouth under control and make it accept love education.
For example, Big Gray’s endless loving Flash Thunder, the Sunflower King’s painful loving Whipping, and the Ten Thousand Changes Silkworm’s loving Death Stare.
Even the little Charcoal Dog and Snow Dog have ways to express their love, one spews fire, and the other sprays snow.
The Mandala Grass King felt extremely confined by this group of Pet Beasts in the Cultivation House, to the point of going crazy.
Possibly the first herb awakened to self-awareness, driven mad by humans.
To prevent this old lord from escaping, the Sunflower King’s Tier Two clone was staring at it without any blind spots at 360 degrees.
Hundreds of eyes watching it, eyes open and closed filled with eyes, it sends shivers down the spine just thinking about it.
Moreover, to prevent its voice from harming others, Ye Bai wrapped its mouth with transparent tape over a dozen times.
The Mandala Grass King shed tears of regret, realizing it had become a prisoner.
Especially that chubby big fat silkworm, looking at it greedily, occasionally licking its lips, revealing eight neat teeth, definitely intending to eat it.
It was scared, truly scared, feeling like it’s entered a den of thieves, "Mom, I want to go home!"
After dealing with the Mandala Grass King, Ye Bai checked the goodies the Sunflower King brought back after clearing the Beast Tide.
The rewards from other city Pet Beast Unions have already been sent to the Jiaying City Pet Beast Union account, where twenty percent is a commission for Jiaying City Union, twenty percent goes to the school, as payment for leasing Tier Two Sunflowers from the school, and the remaining sixty percent will be credited to Ye Bai.
The Sunflower King brought back many golden-yellow solid spheres and numerous Electric Crystal Cores.
[Thunder Gall: A thunder-element treasure bred by Ancient Lantern Fish, can cause a violent explosion when struck on the ground, comparable to the effect of Celestial Thunder Seed.]
[Tier Three Electric Crystal Core: Electric Crystal Core condensed from the body of Ancient Lantern Fish, usually found alongside Thunder Gall. Humans only know Ancient Lantern Fish as Poison Element Pet Beasts, unaware that some can condense Electric Crystal Cores.]
[Heart of Sapphire: The essence part of the Ancient Lantern Fish, usually grows beside the Poison Sac, only skilled chefs can cautiously extract the Heart of Sapphire.]
This is the treasure the Sunflower King brought back from Deep Sea City.
Ye Bai heard of this ingredient, renowned as the A8 grade snowflake beef of the deep sea, a B-grade delicacy, with very tender meat akin to eating tofu, and very juicy.
A dream meat in the hearts of many old gourmets, said to make people feel ethereal after eating a piece.
However, since it grows with the Poison Sac, the thickness of the Poison Sac is only one micron, growing together with Sapphire Flesh.
If handled poorly, the chef will get contaminated with deadly poison, causing death, and Sapphire Flesh will be unusable due to poisoning.
Hence, chefs capable of handling Ancient Lantern Fish are rare, their appointments typically start at three years.
Colorful pearls the size of a baby’s fist roll onto the ground, large and round.
[Deep Sea Pearl: Naturally bred pearl in Deep Sea Shell, ground into pearl powder, has beauty and skincare benefits.]
This is the gift the Sunflower King brought from Sanshui City.
Although the snail-shell-type Exotic Beasts secrete corrosive and sticky liquids after death, they, like shells, can breed pearls.
Just that this Exotic Beast is so rare, causing the Sunflower King to pick up a bargain.
These colorful pearls, unknown how many noblewomen would go mad over them.
This is just a part, with many stored in other Sunflowers.
As for Shihui City, besides the bartered treasures from the Pet Beast Union, there are various high-purity metals, all metallic substances digested and condensed by Ore Beasts after devouring metal ores.
Also, Ore Beast’s canines, like two sharp knives, the hardest part of its body, extracting a part of metal essence to condense on canines after devouring metallic ores.
Just, Ore Beast’s canines are extremely hard, even stone-cutting saws can’t scratch them.
Thus, people in Shihui City Pet Beast Union know the value of Ore Beast’s canines but can’t remove them either.
Rumor has it, cleaning companies remove Ore Beast’s corpses and use pinpoint blasting to extract the canines, selling them at high prices.
"Sunflower King, you’re now the flower master of Sunflower King Cleaning Company, my apologies for my disrespect."
The Sunflower King looked naive, regardless of its identity, it is still Ye Bai’s Pet Beast.
During Fang Yuan Cultivation House’s most distressed times, the Sunflower upgrading from Tier One to Tier Two was achieved by Ye Bai spending all his savings to heal it, even buying expensive potions to save its life, and the Sunflower broke the Tier One bottleneck with its willpower.
Since then, the Sunflower has decided to spend its entire life protecting Ye Bai, even if it means sacrificing itself.
At this moment, the Sunflower King clapped its hands, and seventeen Tier Three Sunflowers stepped forward, with three elf-like cute Pet Beasts flying off its flower disk.
The Sunflower King looked proud, although all are Tier Three Sunflowers, at its level, most are its cloned offshoots, under its control, and the other Tier Three Sunflowers were recruited by it.
It is the leader of the entire Sunflower tribe, even if these Sunflowers evolve to Tier Three, it remains the leader.
"Tier Three Sunflowers?"
"Where did they come from?"
"Tsk tsk."
"I recall Tier Two Sunflowers having to evolve to Tier Three, requiring a Tier Three Sunstone."
"I was thinking how to acquire some Tier Three Sunstones to evolve Tier Two Sunflowers."
Ye Bai rubbed the Sunflower King’s flower disk, and the Sunflower King’s eyes curved in delight.
"Although Shihui City produces Evolution Stones, it doesn’t include Sunstones and Moonstones."
"Sunstones and Moonstones require special environments to be produced, and their prices have always been higher than other Evolution Stones of the same price range."
"Recently, there’s been news of a collapse at Sun Valley, a famous Sunstone production area in the Beautiful Country Alliance. The incident has had a significant impact, and it’s said that the Sun Valley mine won’t be able to produce Sunstones for a year. This has caused the price of Sunstones to skyrocket tenfold."
"Now, a Tier Three Sunstone is worth no less than two million Alliance Coins."
"A total of twenty of them would mean forty million Alliance Coins, what a tremendous deal."
The Sunflower King gestured, trying to explain how these Tier Three Sunstones came to be.
Unfortunately, after all its efforts, Ye Bai still didn’t understand.
"If only we could make a contract, then I might understand what you mean."
The Sunflower King felt a little disappointed, but when its gaze fell on the gloating Mandala Grass King beside it, its eyes suddenly brightened with an idea.
It walked step by step towards the Mandala Grass King, with a sinister smile on its face.
Even if the language isn’t the same, at least there’s a free online translator here.
The Mandala Grass King saw the malicious smile of the Sunflower King.
Σ(⊙▽⊙"a: "Don’t come over here!
Help."
The Sunflower King sharply tore off the transparent tape wrapped around the Mandala Grass King’s mouth.
Ah!!!!
A miserable cry came from the Mandala Grass King’s mouth, the tape covered with its broken roots.
The pain was more than ten times worse than transparent tape sticking to leg hair.
The Mandala Grass King cried and snot streamed down its face from the pain.
This expression made Ye Bai very curious.
Are those tears and snot real?
Or is it the juice of the Mandala Grass coming out?
Ye Bai asked the Sunflower King to find a container to store these liquids.
He would take them to the lab for testing later.
Mandala Grass King!!!
Even my tears and snot aren’t spared by you, you too-greedy-for-the-feather kind of guy.
It was only now that the Mandala Grass King realized how cunning the human in front of it was.
Mom, I want to go home~
The Mandala Grass King’s heart filled with intense regret; if time could be turned back, it would never have been so indignant, wanting to take revenge on humans, let alone be caught by the Sunflower and step into the door of the Cultivation House.
It would have stayed far, far away, hoping never to meet for a lifetime.
But it was now trapped.
The tears it shed now were due to its earlier foolishness.
The Sunflower King conveyed its words to the Mandala Grass King, asking it for translation.
Originally, the Mandala Grass King wanted to act mischievously, but seeing the Sunflower King raising a small whip, eager to use it,
It knew, as long as it said the wrong word, a lash was likely to come its way.
Thus, the Mandala Grass King gave up its small tricks and obediently translated word by word.
After the online translation, Ye Bai finally understood where the Tier Three Sunstones came from.
"If I’m not mistaken, it must be the Cleaning Company playing tricks, they’re scared."
"So, they want to use Tier Three Sunstones to evolve Sunflowers, letting these evolved Sunflowers stand against you."
"What a clever strategy, if it weren’t for most of the Sunflowers here being your clones, the opponent might indeed have succeeded."
The Cleaning Company shot themselves in the foot.
Thanks, bro, for the Cloud-Piercing Arrow; thanks, bro, for the Joyful Gift Pack.
At this moment, a magnificent drop of fluid fell from the Sunflower King’s petals.
Ye Bai felt a surge of abundant life energy emanating from it.
This was the Life Crystal Dew Ye Bai had longed for, known as Celestial Dew in ancient times according to records.
The Mandala Grass King’s eyes widened, its gaze becoming so hot it could burn a hole through the Sunflower King’s leaves.
It could feel this thing would be enormously beneficial to itself, just one sip could significantly boost its power.
Ye Bai carefully took out a vial, collected six drops of the Life Crystal Dew, and cautiously stored it in the Pet Beast Space.
Just then, the Sunflower King clapped its hands, and a big fellow appeared.
