Chapter 214 -204: Armored Foot Monster

“Brother, please don’t make this hard for us. If you keep this up, we’re going to call the police,” one of the security guards, sporting a bird’s-nest hairstyle, said with some apprehension.

The moment he had arrived, he had seen the pet beast sleeping on the ground. He couldn’t recognize its species, but judging by its size alone, people would believe it was a high-level pet beast.

The bird’s-nest-haired security guard wondered for an instant if he was still dreaming.

Were jobs really so hard to come by these days, that a beast tamer with a high-level pet beast would come to work as a security guard…

Li Songhai’s expression grew uglier by the moment.

He had intended to keep a low profile and not to disturb Shuilu Yana, who was hiding in the residential complex, which was why he had applied to be a security guard. But not only had he failed to find Shuilu Yana, this mess had also arisen. It seemed he could no longer continue working as a security guard.

With all the commotion, it was only a matter of time before Shuilu Yana realized he was there. Finding the slime worms was more important now.

With that thought, Li Songhai decided not to hold back any longer.

“This is too much! I’ve already said I just came to find my pet beast, and since you won’t let me in, I’ll have to force my way through!” Li Songhai growled through gritted teeth: “Steel Footed Behemoth, wake up!”

Seeing this, the two security guards were startled and quickly retreated to put some distance between themselves and the beast.

The one with the bird’s-nest hair formed hand seals to summon his own pet beast.

…

Steel Footed Behemoth…

Qiao Sang, who was watching the surveillance from inside a house, felt a jolt in his heart and took out his phone to type with one hand, bowing his head and entering the species name.

He quickly found information about it on the internet.

[Steel Footed Behemoth, with an odd appearance, is a high-level pet beast with dual Rock-type and Water-type attributes, commonly residing by the seashore]

A high-level pet beast… Qiao Sang had suspected as much at the sight of the Green Star Formation and was not surprised.

He looked up again at the monitors.

The pet beast summoned by the security guard outside, a Sand Gopher, was definitely no match.

If the situation escalated and alerted the police, who then followed the clues back to the beast tamer from the Ancient Mist Region working as a security guard,

then there would be no chance of contracting Shuilu Yana.

With this in mind, Qiao Sang set Shuilu Yana on the ground and said, “You stay inside the house, don’t come out.”

“Lulu.”

Shuilu Yana looked at the human in front of her, seemingly about to leave, and showed a worried expression.

Qiao Sang’s mouth quirked into a smile, guessing, “You’re not worried about me, are you?”

“Lulu…”

Shuilu Yana’s body stiffened, turning its head away.

Seeing its awkward demeanor, Qiao Sang said nothing more and turned to open the door.

However, just as she reached for the doorknob, she saw Xiao Xunbao, carrying the slime worm, floating naturally alongside her towards the door, with an expression akin to a warrior heading off to battle.

Qiao Sang was startled and quickly let go of the doorknob, saying, “You don’t have to follow me, I’m just going to reason with them, not to fight.”

“Xun Xun?”

Xiao Xunbao cocked its head, looking confused.

Reason with them? Would that work?

Qiao Sang assured, “Don’t worry, that person just wants to get his pet beast back. As long as the slime worm responds to his call, the issue will be resolved.”

“Xun…”

Xiao Xunbao looked down at the slime worm in its claws, which was closing its eyes.

Was this creature really that important?

Following its gaze, Qiao Sang suddenly remembered something and said, “Wait for me to go outside, then don’t use Shadow Control on the slime worm anymore.”

“Xun Xun.”

Xiao Xunbao nodded.

Qiao Sang felt relieved and pushed the door open.

…

The moment she stepped outside, Shuilu Yana gestured towards the monitor to Xiao Xunbao.

“Lulu… Lulu…”

It wanted to see what was happening outside and asked to be picked up.

Xiao Xunbao, after having spent some time with Shuilu Yana and developing a friendship, recalled what its beast tamer had said about not needing to control the slime worm anymore. With a flick of its claw, it flung the slime worm behind and floated towards Shuilu Yana.
