Cultivation Pet Shop Chapter 375
Advertisement
Hong Long clearly had something else to say, but since Lin Fan had already made a compromise, he chose to accept it.
Hong Long gave a nod and said, "It's best if the kids can come to an agreement themselves."
Then he turned to pat Qing Ao on the shoulder again as he said, "It'll all depend on Xiao Bao Bao in the future."
Qing Ao still had a tearful look as he said, "Uncle Hong…"
Hong Long just smiled and said, "It's for the future prosperity of the Dragon Race."
Qing Ao still didn't look convinced, but there was nothing else he could say since Hong Long had already brought out the future prosperity of the Dragon Race. As one of the members of the Dragon Race, this was naturally what he wanted as well and he couldn't just go against his elders like this.
But still, that was his only daughter…
Hong Long walked over to where Qing Bao Lan was and said, "Xiao Bao Bao, do your best. Uncle Hong is rooting for you."
Qing Bao Lan turned around with a hopeful look and said, "Great uncle!"
But then she immediately revealed a sweet smile and said, "Great uncle, since you're rooting for me, you must have some things to help me, right? I need some good delicacies to give to my honey, I'm sure great uncle will give them to me, right?"
Hong Long's face turned stiff, it seemed like he had underestimated this little girl.
Not only was she spoiled rotten, she was also quite sly.
Hong Long could only say with a cough, "Ke, your Uncle Hong doesn't have anything right now since I'm just a soul fragment. When I get back into my body, your Uncle Hong will get you anything you want."
Qing Bao Lan just looked disappointed before saying, "Oh, never mind then."
As soon as she said this, she stopped paying attention to Hong Long and went back to trying to coax Xiao Feng out.
Hong Long was just left there with a look on his face like he was about to cry. He had never met this kind of little girl before…
Hong Long turned back to Qing Ao who had an awkward look on his face as well before saying, "You really have a special way of teaching your daughter."
Qing Ao just revealed a bitter look, but he didn't say anything since there was nothing else to say.

Since they decided to leave this matter to the kids, they just ignored Qing Bao Lan and what the other kids were doing. Of course, not everything was good with Lin Fan since he could see glares from Angela which he tried to ignore as much as he could.
After a little bit longer, Lin Fan got into the main topic.
Lin Fan tapped the table and said, "Brother Qing, since this is your territory, do you know if there are any Embryo Soul Realm beasts that are nearby?"
Qing Ao was surprised to hear this, but then he said, "There are a few nearby. Brother Lin, why are you asking this?"
Lin Fan paused for a second before saying, "Well, I need a few Embryo Soul Realm beast corpses for my own needs...So I was wondering if Brother Qing could bring me around to kill a few Embryo Soul Realm beasts."
Qing Ao was shocked when he heard this.
While he hadn't been the king of these Kunlun Mountains for long, he was still the king here. Since he was the ruler here, that meant that the beasts that were here looked to him for protection.
Now Lin Fan was asking him to sacrifice a few of them…
This really put Qing Ao in a hard spot, that was if he didn't know about Xiao Feng.
Since there was the existence of Xiao Feng, everything else could be negotiated, especially the lives of the lower realm beasts. For him, he was only temporarily protecting them and it didn't matter if a few of them died since none of this would ever reach the Dragon Clan which was what really mattered. All that would matter was if he was able to bring Xiao Feng back or not.
So this was really a small price to pay to become friends with Lin Fan and Qing Ao didn't hesitate to pay it.
But since this was an opportunity for the kids as well, Qing Ao said, "Brother Lin, how about we let the kids take care of the Embryo Soul Realm beasts by themselves and only step in when we need to? It would be good training for them."
Lin Fan stroked his chin and considered it before giving a nod.
While it might take a bit longer to take care of the Embryo Soul Realm beasts like this, he was right about it being a good chance for the kids to have some training. Lin Fan had seen how hard they had worked earlier and how disappointed they were when they had been stopped by Qing Ao, this would be a good chance to rebuild their confidence.

So it was decided just like that, but it was too bad the beasts of the Kunlun Mountains didn't know that they had just been sacrificed. If they did, they would have cried until there were no tears left since the king that they trusted to protect them had just thrown them away.
Once that was settled, Lin Fan took out the map that he brought and Qing Ao marked several spots. Before doing so, he asked Lin Fan how many Embryo Soul Realm beasts that he wanted and after Lin Fan thought about it, he asked for ten.
Ten, a whole ten Embryo Soul Realm beasts!
In Harmony City, a single Embryo Soul Realm Expert was able to lead an entire family like the Xu Family, but now Lin Fan was asking for the corpses of ten Embryo Soul Realm beasts.
If this was known by anyone else, they definitely would have scolded him until he drowned in spit.
But for Qing Ao, he agreed quite readily.
That was because he was expecting much more than just ten.
For Qing Ao who came from an even higher realm, ten Embryo Soul Realm beasts were nothing.
If people knew what these two were thinking, they definitely would have cursed them out as wastrels!
So just like that, after packing up everything, they began moving through the forest towards the den of the first Embryo Soul Realm beast.
Along the way, the kids excitedly asked Lin Fan what they were doing and when Lin Fan explained, they became even more excited.
While they may look like cute kids, these kids were actually beasts with an instinct to fight stronger opponents to become stronger. Now that they were given that chance, how could they not be excited?
Of course, the only downside was that they were told to bring Qing Bao Lan with them.
Qing Bao Lan was still chasing after Xiao Feng, but she was being kept away by the rest of the kids still, so there was a slight hostility between them.
Of course, even if there was that hostility, Qing Bao Lan knew that if she was to become Xiao Feng's wife, she would have to become in laws with these kids, so she tried her best to win them over as well.
It was too bad that they weren't as easy to win over as Xiao Feng.
Well that is except for Rocky who was kind of a scatterbrain.
With just a simple shiny pebble, she was able to win him over.
They kept moving along until they arrived at the den of the first Embryo Soul Realm beast.
The kids didn't waste any time at all as they all ran into position to release their array.
Qing Bao Lan wanted to follow Xiao Feng, but Brainy didn't let her do that. Brainy was the one in charge of this array and it knew that Qing Bao Lan as an Embryo Soul Realm beast wouldn't be able to cooperate with the rest of the kids.
The key of this array was having balanced life energy output from each corner of the array and since Qing Bao Lan's cultivation was higher than theirs, it would be harder for her to match the others.
So in the end, Brainy directly sent Qing Bao Lan into the center of the array to directly attack the Embryo Soul Realm beast.
While they were setting up, the adults also sat on the side watching them.
It was like adults that were chaperoning a field trip, but this field trip involved fighting wild beasts.
Angela looked so much like a doting mother that she even opened up the camera function of her watch and was prepared to take pictures.
While they were standing there watching, Hong Long was talking to Qing Ao in secret messages.
Hong Long's first message was, "Why did you come down to this lower realm?"
Qing Ao was silent for a bit before giving a sigh and replying, "I was forced down."
Hong Long immediately asked, "Was it your brother?"
Qing Ao was silent again before saying with another sigh, "Yes."
Hong Long immediately knitted his brows when he heard this.
Qing Ao's brother was always a problem in Hong Long's eyes, even when he had been with the Dragon Race.
This was a child that always spouted out nonsense that the Dragon Race was supreme and every other race should bow down to them.
Qing Ao on the other hand might have been cold, but he was a kind child in the end.
But now that Qing Ao had been chased away, this could mean that there was a change in the Dragon Race...

How the Stars Turned Red
Announcement as of 05 July 2022: I've been diagnosed with some pretty severe nerve damage in my left arm, rendering me unable to write effectively, and as such this story is on hold until it is healed. I am so sorry, and I promise to get back to writing as soon as possible. In the latter half of the 3rd millennium CE, humanity has spread across the stars, inhabiting close to five-hundred worlds across the Orion Arm. Earth has become irrelevant, a historical has-been. The galactic map is dominated by two mega-factions, both controlling vast amounts of territories either through direct control or through their many allies and treaty signatories. The Kingdom of Aurora is the political and economic hegemon despite consisting of only seven inhabited worlds; their strength lies in the Royal Union, an interstellar commonwealth composing an internal market and a common defence pact. These member worlds are myriad and varied, culturally as well as politically, but they all flock to the same banner. The Independent Systems Alliance, spearheaded by the Republic of Elysium, is the ascendant challenger to Aurora and the Union. A pseudo-federal multi-system polity, the Alliance economy and military is rapidly expanding, but at the cost of effective democratic and meritocratic involvement by its people. However, with two superpowers as this, chafing along a common border, and with a constant clamour of polemics, both sides have become convinced the other is constantly preparing for war and are on the look-out for any perceived weakness in their opponent. The predictable result is a huge arms race and a cold war spreading across the stars, requiring only a spark to set the galaxy aflame. Drawn into this game of high stakes are ordinary men and women, their peaceful lives, hopes, and aspirations swallowed by the vortex of conflict and distrust. This is their story. Cover art by Rhodex Designs (FB). Hope you like long chapters and adjectives. Note: English is not my first language. Another story set in the same universe, written by a good friend

The Drifting World
In the year 2104, a brand new VRMMO called The Drifting World is released promising realism, adventure, and freedom like no other. Follow Noah as he builds his character Chemistree, a Treant rogue, and uncovers the mysteries of a destroyed virtual world. Expect guilds, dungeons, skills, stats, and, levels as he progresses through the main story of the game and tries to uncover what secrets the game has to hide. Okay, stereotypical introduction over. This is my first time trying to release a story I've written, so feedback is welcome. The premise is nothing special, I just want to do it well. A lot of similar stories I've read make me ask "what kind of game would work like that?" Sometimes believable gameplay elements give way for a more immersive story, but I hope to make that as balanced as possible rather than going for cheap thrills. Well, I guess we will just see how this goes.
