Chapter 332 - 193: Miracle! One Night with Qing Bo
Under the cover of night, the group found a campsite near flowing water.
All around them was vast whiteness, but this little stream wasn’t frozen—a stroke of luck indeed.
Bright flames soon roared to life, and everyone busied themselves with setting up tents and preparing dinner.
Yao Li took out the remaining handful of instant noodles, inhaling deeply to savor the aroma.
The Pet Beasts were tired after a day’s exertion, each munching on their feed in front of their Beastmasters.
"Yo?"
Qing Bo, entirely unafraid of strangers, walked up to Cola, curiously inspecting the feed on the ground.
"Ow~"
Cola immediately cast a wary eye.
"Roar~"
The Fallen Meteor Horned Beast saw this, nudging some pellet feed towards Qing Bo, so that it could easily reach down and eat.
Without any hesitation, Qing Bo bowed its head to munch; the new taste made it smile brightly, its short tail swaying back and forth.
This little creature may appear petite, but its appetite was astonishing, and in no time, the ground’s feed was gone.
Chen Yuan brought out another handful and placed it in front of Qing Bo.
After a while,
The little ones finished their feed, Cola yawned, settling casually on the snow, exposing a slightly swollen belly, its fluffy tail snug against the ground.
"Yo?"
Qing Bo noticed Chen Yuan gathering twigs to stoke the fire, and with a gentle leap, as if lifted by invisible energy, it flew at amazing speed through the vast night sky, trailing ephemeral green light.
Zhang Yu’s eyes widened, pointing upward: "T... Teacher, the deer can fly!"
"Snort snort~"
Next to him, Hanhan Pig stuck out its tongue, seizing the chance to lick Zhang Yu’s face.
Everyone looked up in unison, first seeing a vanishing green light, followed by Qing Bo’s image becoming clearer.
Qing Bo landed with a bunch of thin twigs, placing them in front of Chen Yuan before wagging its tail.
"Such a polite little one." Chen Yuan crouched down, meeting those sapphire eyes with a gentle smile.
Then, Chen Yuan glanced sideways at Cola lying on the ground, sighing: "Look at this one."
Professor Song and Chen Wenhao hurried over, the others all wearing incredulous expressions.
Even in the frigid night, the research passion of the two was ignited by this flying green little deer.
Seeing them intensely staring, Qing Bo quickly hid behind Chen Yuan, showing only a pair of antlers.
Chen Yuan looked down at Qing Bo, smiling: "Don’t be afraid, they just want to know you better."
"We won’t hurt you."
Qing Bo hesitantly raised its head, glancing around, slowly revealing an adorable smile.
Seems like a nice little fellow.
But the night was deep, not the time for research, so Chen Yuan advised the two to rest and come back later.
The darkness grew deeper, silence pervading the snowy landscape, broken only by the gentle flow of the stream.
Not feeling sleepy, Chen Yuan sat by the stream, lost in thought.
Above him, Qing Bo flew back and forth, its eyes nearly crescent-shaped from joy, the trailing light nearly forming a complete circle.
Originally mingling in the Star Moon Deer pack, since being fed twice by Chen Yuan, Qing Bo seemed to consider him a mobile cafeteria, always staying close.
"Ow ow~"
Seeing Qing Bo’s play, Cola felt a sudden surge of irritation.
Uh oh, another flying playmate!
Cola’s eyes twitched, hatching a mischievous plan; it lowered its head, pawing a small snowball, and when Qing Bo wasn’t looking, hurled it forcefully.
Bam!
The snowball hit Qing Bo directly; the latter froze in place.
Chen Yuan was also stunned.
A Sunrise Quality Pet Beast—you dare sneak attack it, Cola!
Qing Bo tilted its head, looking down at Cola, and then broke into a grin.
Fun!
Let’s play together!
"Looks like a pretty easy-going little guy." Jiang Wenning settled beside Chen Yuan, "Temperament nicer than most Pet Beasts I’ve encountered."
"Indeed." Chen Yuan found it equally surprising.
Such high quality yet so amiable—is that really reasonable?
After being fed, Qing Bo even brought back twigs to express gratitude—a rare trait among Pet Beasts.
Bam bam bam!
Snowballs flew, Qing Bo dodging left and right, yet occasionally hit, snow dust scattering across its face.
"Yo yo!"
But Qing Bo grew happier, more excited, even pulling the Fallen Meteor Horned Beast in for play.
It seemed like it had never enjoyed playing so much.
"Ow ow ow~"
Cola was at a loss with this little one; its earlier irritation had long dissipated, running across the snow, occasionally tossing a snowball.
After a long while, Qing Bo returned to Chen Yuan’s side.
Chen Yuan bent down, gently patting Qing Bo’s head: "Such a kid."
"Indeed." Jiang Wenning nodded in agreement, cautiously reaching out to stroke Qing Bo, which didn’t reject, making the touch more carefree, "And such a magical little creature."
"Yo?"
Qing Bo tilted its head, not quite understanding their words, soon showing a pure smile.
Chen Yuan turned to the Twin Flower Concubine: "You could learn Wood Skills from it."
Chen Yuan didn’t know the effect of Qing Bo’s Wood Skills, but their high impression and extraordinary proficiency hinted at something special.
After all, the Twin Flower Concubine is a Wood-type Pet Beast, learning Wood Skills is the right path.
Must swiftly curb the Twin Flower Concubine’s misguided focus on Poison Skills!
"Hum."
The Twin Flower Concubine’s night form remained expressionless.
