Adinixi... Qiao Sang’s expression suddenly changed as she seemed to realize something, and she said urgently:
"Quick, check what’s going on inside the ring with the other stuff!"
"Xun Xun!"
Little Xunbao froze on the spot upon hearing her Beast Tamer’s words, then enlarged the ring and quickly shoved its entire head inside.
The commotion inside the ring was inaudible from the outside, but most of Little Xunbao’s body stuck out, writhing frantically, clearly in a state of frustration.
At this moment, Qiao Sang felt a foreboding sense of unease.
About a minute later, Little Xunbao pulled its head out of the ring, tears and mucus streaming down as it looked pitifully at its Beast Tamer. Qiao Sang’s heart sank as she asked, "What happened?"
"Xun Xun!"
Little Xunbao finally couldn’t hold back and burst into tears.
The food was almost entirely gone!
"Ya Ya?!"
Upon hearing this, Yaobao bristled fiercely, itching to charge in and take on the culprit who devoured everything.
"Bing’ai..."
Lubao’s eyes grew deep, and two small water bubbles emerged from its nostrils.
"Gangzhan..."
Gangbao’s face turned completely dark.
Qiao Sang, who had already mentally prepared herself, remained relatively calm and asked, "Other than the food, is everything else okay?"
"Xun, Xun..."
While using telekinesis to maneuver tissues from the coffee table to wipe its tears, Little Xunbao shook its head, indicating that the other items hadn’t been touched.
The situation was better than she had anticipated. It seemed Adinixi had only raided their food stash. Fortunately, her Unlimited Card was still valid; she could take this chance to stockpile energy-rich food back in Area One. The vice principal’s specially crafted energy pills for Yaobao and the others were regrettably lost, but it wasn’t a big deal. As long as Adinixi was willing to play the flute when needed, this sacrifice of food would be worth it... While Qiao Sang was busy consoling herself inwardly, she also reassured Yaobao and the others:
"I heard Adinixi only wakes up once every hundred years. After not eating for a century, waking up starving like this is understandable. When we get back, we’ll buy more food to replenish what was lost."
"Xun, Xun..."
Little Xunbao continued wiping its tears.
"Ya Ya..."
Yaobao pouted, still somewhat indignant, but since its Beast Tamer had already said this, there was no other choice.
"Bing’ai..."
Lubao froze for a moment, then abruptly the two fluctuating water bubbles on its nostrils "popped" and burst, finally letting go of its frustration.
