Cultivation Pet Shop

377 Chapter 377

It didn't take the kids long to take care of all ten Embryo Soul Realm beasts since compared to them, they were much weaker.

But during this process, Qing Bao Lan had been beaten several times per fight all because of Brainy's secret meddling.

Of course, with Xiao Feng's cheering and care, she was able to endure all of this since it really felt good being cared for by the one she liked.

In fact, Xiao Feng also surprisingly quite liked taking care of Qing Bao Lan. Even though he was still young, it ignited the protective feelings that a man should have towards women, though technically she was stronger than him still. But that wouldn't be a problem with how fast Xiao Feng cultivated and the purity of his bloodline.

Even if Xiao Feng didn't cultivate, he would still be able to reach a higher realm than Qing Bao Lan faster just because of his special bloodline.

However, that wouldn't do for Lin Fan since he needed Xiao Feng to be as strong as possible, so Xiao Feng would never be able to escape being forced to cultivate.

That was also the strange thing with the relationship between Lin Fan and his pets.

Lin Fan's training method was sacrificing his pets and letting them die again and again, which should have been something that should have scared his pets, making them fear him. However, for some reason, these pets even developed Stockholm Syndrome and went as far as calling him dad.

It really was hard to understand what was going on in the heads of these kids.

Perhaps it was imprinting since he was the one who took care of them the entire time after they had developed intelligence.

Since they were finished with these ten Embryo Soul Realm beasts and Lin Fan had already collected their corpses, there really wasn't anything left for them to do now.

However, it was getting late, so Qing Ao invited them all to his cave. While his home was in a cave, what was actually in that cave was a giant luxurious palace.

They spent a very relaxing night there, it was even better than the modern residences that the Xu Family had given them.

Of course, there was no lack of escapades during the night as Qing Bao Lan tried to sleep with Xiao Feng, but she was dragged away by her mother in the end.

It seemed like the mother was the one who wore the pants in this relationship, even Qing Ao was a bit afraid of her.

It was interesting to note that Qing Ao's wife was actually a pureblooded Gold Dragon who had left the Dragon Race with him to come down to this lower realm. That meant that the dragon bloodline that flowed through Qing Bao Lan was a pure dragon bloodline.

In fact, before they had left Qing Ao and his wife had tested Qing Bao Lan's bloodline purity and they found that it was much purer than any offspring the Dragon Race had previously.

If it wasn't for the fact that Xiao Feng had appeared, Qing Bao Lan would have probably been the future of the Dragon Race.

When Hong Long learned about this, he supported Qing Bao Lan getting together with Xiao Feng even more and started teaming up with Qing Bao Lan to help her get closer to Xiao Feng to the dismay of Qing Ao.

As for Qing Ao's wife, she decided to let her daughter find her own happiness since that was what she did with Qing Ao. She was someone who had run away from her tribe just to marry Qing Ao since the tribe had wanted her to marry another pureblooded Gold Dragon.

Although there was plenty of action in the night, Lin Fan's group got a very good sleep and were refreshed as they prepared to head back to Harmony City.

Lin Fan had gotten plenty of Nine Star Ginseng and he had those ten Embryo Soul Realm beast corpses, so he was certain that he would be able to reach the top of A rank or even reach S rank to qualify for the Hunters Exam.

Since that was the case, there was no reason for him to stay in these Kunlun Mountains any longer. Especially since there was still the problem of the Xu Family that he needed to help take care of.

So as soon as the sun rose, Lin Fan's group was prepared to head back to Harmony City, but they couldn't leave as smoothly as they thought they would be able to.

That was because there was a little dragon girl that had caught them as they were leaving and now she was throwing a tantrum.

"I want to go, I want to go, I want to go! You can't separate me from my honey!" Qing Bao Lan was lying on her back waving her arms and legs around as she shouted this while crying. To put it in earth terms, it was the equivalent of a child throwing a tantrum for that toy they wanted…

Qing Ao and Qing Ao's wife both had awkward looks on their faces as they tried to persuade their daughter to give up this idea.

That was because they were unable to enter the lands of the humans since after taking over these Kunlun Mountains, that was the deal they had reached with the humans.

Qing Ao as a True Soul Realm dragon was a very powerful expert, but there were still others in this realm that were at the same cultivation realm as him. To put it simply, there were twelve of them, one for each of the twelve great factions.

While Qing Ao was a dragon with a pure bloodline, making him stronger than normal experts at the same level of cultivation, there was still only one of him. He might be able to fight one, or two, or three, or even four of these True Soul Realm Experts at the same time, but if there were five, or six, or even twelve of them, that was where he would be stopped.

Plus, it wasn't just the twelve True Soul Realm Experts that were in this realm, there were also plenty of other hidden human True Soul Realm Experts who were cultivating in peace to reach the next realm.

If Qing Ao were to break this treaty and leave this territory, he would be immediately chased by the humans.

To put it again in earth terms, Qing Ao would be the equivalent of a nuke. If that nuke were to ever be moved on earth, you can be certain that there would be plenty of other countries that would closely monitor that nuke.

After all, just a single lost nuke could mean the end of the world.

So Qing Ao was forced to stay in the Kunlun Mountains for now, at least without reaching another deal with the human experts, he wouldn't be able to leave in a short period of time.

Naturally he wasn't confident in letting his daughter leave alone, especially with how much he spoiled her. So he was doing his best to convince his daughter to stay and give up this idea of hers.

But no matter what he said, she continued throwing a tantrum on the ground shouting, "I want to go, I want to go, I want to go."

With how awkward the situation was, it was hard for Lin Fan's group to just leave since they were the ones causing this problem. Especially now that Lin Fan and Qing Ao were sworn brothers.

Finally, Lin Fan could only bring some wisdom from earth to try to convince this child, "Xiao Bao Bao, you know that they say that absence makes the heart grow fonder."

Qing Bao Lan immediately stopped crying and looked at Lin Fan with a confused look when she heard this. She didn't know exactly what it meant, but it sounded very profound which attracted her attention, so she asked, "What does that mean?"

Lin Fan said in a thoughtful voice, "It means that the longer you don't see each other, the more you miss each other. So if you and Xiao Feng were to spend some time apart, it would make you think of each other more and would help your relationship, don't you think so, Brother Qing?"

Qing Ao immediately caught on and said, "Right, right, right, Xiao Bao Bao, just think of it as spending some time apart to prepare yourself as a bride. Then when you meet again, you'll dazzle him with your abilities and make him fall in love with you again, won't you?"

Qing Ao truly was desperate for him to say these words that actually hurt him as he said them, but he had no choice.

Qing Bao Lan tilted her head slightly to think about it and she realized that they were right.

After a while, she gave a shy nod before turning to Xiao Feng and saying, "We might not be able to be together, but we'll definitely see each other soon."

Xiao Feng didn't really understand what was going on, but he did become friendly with Qing Bao Lan during this time, so he also gave a nod and said, "Un."

Qing Bao Lan's heart soared when she heard this and she immediately put her head in her hands.

It was at this moment that Lin Fan immediately called back all his pets and dashed away from Qing Ao's palace.

By the time Qing Bao Lan looked up again, they were already gone.

This was the only way they could get out without a fuss.
