Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 1029 - 1030: Worry

Long Boduo just stared quietly at Feng Yuan without speaking, scratching his head with a headache. He was busy preparing potions for the little green snakes and didn’t have time to help him pick the fruit. Besides, it wouldn’t take long if Long Boduo went by himself, as he could use the Netherworld Passage to quickly traverse most areas.

Xiao Ji, discontented, tried to push Long Boduo aside, but no matter how you look at it Long Boduo had Divine Beast-level strength and was not something Xiao Ji could budge. Seeing Xiao Ji looking pitifully at himself, Feng Yuan turned to Agunas for help,

"Could you please help?"

Swishing his tail, Agunas opened the Space Gate right away. Long Boduo’s childish behavior was also giving it a headache. Meng Binglan, on the other side, envied this scene; that guy actually had such good relations with so many Divine Beasts, especially Long Boduo whose Ghost-type Divine Beasts rarely appeared in front of humans. If the latter could...

Shaking her head, Meng Binglan dismissed this terrifying thought. She knew very well that even if Long Boduo entered the fray, it might lead the war in an unpredictable direction. Although Nierlat from Xingchan had already joined the battle because of the incident, the days for Xingchan were not going well.

The Alliance always opposed pulling Divine Beasts directly into national warfare. On Great Xia’s side, Feng Yuan and his team acted covertly; the opposition had no proof. Although they suspected that Divine Beasts were involved at the borders, there was nothing they could do, whereas Nierlat was different because it was witnessed by Agunas personally participating in destructive activities against Great Xia.

Even if Great Xia hadn’t collected evidence, the Alliance had Divine Beast protection and could naturally get the news from the Divine Beasts. Because of this, the Alliance issued direct punitive measures against Xingchan. Although Divine Beast Hall opposed it, everyone was worried that the direct participation of Divine Beasts in wars would become the norm, so few openly supported them.

"Let’s take a break first, I’m not sure if dinner is ready."

Watching the sunset disappear into the distant sky, Feng Yuan stretched lazily and said, Gong Qiuxia, looking at the documents in her hand, said,

"Prepare some bread for me."

Seeing her finish speaking and immediately leave with the photocopied documents, the man smiled helplessly and said to the middle-aged man,

"I’ll go check."

"Bring her some porridge, eating bread all the time isn’t good for the body."

The man gave an awkward smile, nodded, and left. The middle-aged man turned to Feng Yuan and others and said,

"If you continue to be bothered tomorrow, please let us know."

"Aren’t you going to rest?"

Seeing the middle-aged man walk straight to the equipment and start maintenance, Feng Yuan asked curiously. Long Boduo snorted and squeezed in front of Feng Yuan saying,

"Let’s go~ Time to eat~"

Gently pushing away Long Boduo’s head, Feng Yuan watched the cautious man checking the equipment and said,

"Can’t they handle this?"

Hearing Feng Yuan’s words, the middle-aged man paused, turned his head, looked at Feng Yuan, and smiled saying,

"I prefer checking it myself for peace of mind. I believe, after this, you might not lend a hand anymore, and from here on out, we’ll likely have to rely entirely on ourselves, hence the primary data is extremely important."

"I never said that, really. If needed, I can still come over to help."

"But it’s troublesome, and isn’t this the most relaxed moment for you? No pressure from exams and not yet time to consider future careers. Truly a wonderful time."

The middle-aged man stared at Feng Yuan and said smilingly. Surprisingly, Feng Yuan nodded and replied,

"That’s true, but unfortunately, good times are always short-lived, no matter how much you want to hold on, they always slip away..."

Watching Feng Yuan leave with Xiao Ji and the others, the middle-aged man sighed and murmured something to himself.

"Hehe~ I knew Yun You would have dinner ready early~"

"You always say that, always crediting everything to Yun You."

At that moment, a woman with long black hair looking somewhat displeased said to Feng Yuan, who responded with a smile,

"Jian Qin, you are here too~"

"Don’t call me that! How many times should I tell you, either call me Sister Qin or Boss Lady, are you asking for it?!"

Gong Jianqin waved her fist, a bit annoyed, while Feng Yuan chuckled and said,

"But I got used to it. Why don’t you call me Brother Feng? Maybe I’ll—Ouch! Are you actually hitting me?"

"Cut the crap! Don’t run, stand still!"

"No way!"

Seeing Feng Yuan transforming into a Little Husky and dashing all over the dining area with Gong Jianqin chasing after him, Qi Chen covered his face, speechless. This guy really knew how to stir up trouble. Dou Yanlan watched the scene and chuckled,

"It seems he has a pretty good relationship with them."

Qi Chen looked at Dou Yanlan with some confusion, not quite understanding her point. Dou Yanlan smiled and explained,

"He would never joke around like this with strangers, not even these kinds of pranks, and rarely with other students."

"Seems... indeed..."

Only then did Qi Chen remember that Feng Yuan seldom joked with other students, and always acted very politely. He hadn’t thought much of it before, but now, reminded by Dou Yanlan, he realized that perhaps it was because Feng Yuan did not mesh well with them.

However... remembering how that guy often pranked him on regular days gave him a bit of a headache. Feng Yuan’s antics were indeed unpredictable, striking whenever he felt like it.

"How is it? How do you feel?"

Cen Chudie curiously looked at Su Wen. She was eager to know her first impressions of the equipment. Recalling the experience, Su Wen smiled and said,

"It seems pretty good, more accurate and detailed than the equipment in our laboratory. But... can I still enter Maomu Academy now?"

"Not as a full student, but as an auditor. You don’t need to take our exams, just sit in on classes. Of course, there are some assessments, but with Qingyu here, it shouldn’t be a big issue."

"How about it? Interested?"

Hearing Cen Chudie say this, Su Wen guessed something and looked at Qingyu beside her. Qingyu lifted his head, seemed hesitant, then shook his head and gestured something with his tail. After a long silence, Su Wen gently patted Qingyu’s head and looked at Cen Chudie, asking,

"They wouldn’t do anything bad to Qingyu, right?"

"Definitely not. Our academy isn’t some illegal organization. The devices are similar to the ones they have, and they won’t be in contact with Qingyu. But just to let you know, the equipment at our academy isn’t that advanced. Of course, I’m not saying it’s bad; it’s just that these things get updated every couple of years and our academy can’t keep up."

By the end, Cen Chudie couldn’t help but laugh. Although those devices were merely mechanical constructs, the materials and manufacturing difficulties made them quite troublesome, hence their exorbitant prices. Only the Great Xia Research Institute could afford the latest models.

"That does make sense. If everything was the latest, I’d be surprised how Maomu Academy could afford that."

Su Wen smiled and responded. She wasn’t ignorant about those devices; her teacher had told her they were too costly for the school to purchase, and they’d have to wait to learn about them when they entered the research institute.

"An auditor at Maomu Academy, huh? Congratulations!"

Beside her, Cheng Xiaoxiao murmured with a smile while addressing Su Wen, who responded with a joy she couldn’t hide,

"Thank you, but I’m not sure if it will work out..."

"It should be fine. Those Homeward Snakes, he probably wouldn’t provide them to any human organization. It’s more likely he’ll let them return to lead their own groups."

"I hope they don’t misunderstand..."

Looking at the Little Husky causing chaos in the dining room, Cheng Xiaoxiao sighed. All those Homeward Snakes represented numerous Little Green Snake groups. It could be problematic if someone misunderstood Feng Yuan’s intentions.

"They probably won’t, especially since, no matter how many Little Green Snake groups there are, they don’t have as much deterrence as those Divine Beasts by his side."

Cen Chudie was somewhat uncertain as she spoke. Honestly, today she realized just how formidable this guy was. Not only was he closely connected with so many Divine Beasts, but he also appeared to be on joking terms with Gitalien? She was indeed a bit envious.
