Chapter 2158: Chapter 273: I Already Know...
Mikaela was stunned for a moment. "What?"
"Actually, the reason we had Gangbao go down to get the Pet Beast Egg was only because Yinpan Spirit thought its defensive power was high enough to withstand the damage for a period of time." Qiao Sang said, "But the real goal is just to take the Pet Beast Egg out from under the Void Cliff. As long as we get the Pet Beast Egg out, it doesn’t have to be Gangbao going down."
"I get what you mean." Mikaela cut her steak and said, "But Pen Jiami and the others don’t have high defensive power."
Meaning, even if Pen Jiami and the others went down, they still wouldn’t be able to bring the Pet Beast Egg up.
"I’m not planning to have Pen Jiami and the others get the Pet Beast Egg." Qiao Sang said, enunciating every word, "I want Qingbao to get it."
Qingbao, who had been elegantly eating its Energy Meal: "???"
"Qingqing?" Qingbao showed a confused expression.
It?
It was so confused it even forgot to keep speaking in Shalala’s language.
"Xun Xun~"
Little Treasure Spirit called out while munching on Energy Pills, mocking that Old Wu’s defensive power was even lower than its own, so how could it possibly get the Pet Beast Egg?
Qingbao glared at it, but didn’t refute.
Mikaela pondered for a moment, then her eyes lit up as she said:
"You want Qingbao to control the wind and bring the Pet Beast Egg out?"
"Yeah." Qiao Sang nodded. "Wind is everywhere and not afraid of damage. As long as we pinpoint where the Pet Beast Egg is, have Little Treasure Spirit use Shadow Piercing nearby, and then have Qingbao control the wind to blow the Pet Beast Egg out, we’re set."
Qingbao could Wind Transform, but even if it transformed into wind, as long as the surrounding damage reached a certain level, it would still be forced to reveal its body and get hurt.
Pure wind, however, wouldn’t.
A few months ago, when they were training long-distance control of Doppelgangers to track Little Treasure Spirit and Tingbao, it was the wind that played the crucial role in finding Little Treasure Spirit, who kept Teleporting and changing positions.
Since the wind could be controlled even from such a distance, it shouldn’t be a problem under the Void Cliff either.
"Xun Xun..."
Little Treasure Spirit showed a suddenly-enlightened expression.
So it wasn’t sending Old Wu down there, but having Old Wu control the wind to go.
"Xun Xun~"
Once it understood what was going on, Little Treasure Spirit immediately started flattering without hesitation.
Their Beast Tamer was really awesome, to even come up with this.
Still the smooth talker you are... Qiao Sang suppressed the upward curl of her lips.
"Steel Authority."
As the thought flashed through her mind, Gangbao’s voice rang in her head.
If you’d thought of this earlier, I wouldn’t have had to suffer like this all day.
Qiao Sang: "..."
Use wind, huh... Qingbao looked thoughtful.
Mikaela laughed and praised, "That’s a good idea. If we’re talking about something that’s not afraid of damage, it’s basically just wind."
After speaking, she remembered something and asked, "Has Qingyun Nainai’s ability to control wind already gotten this strong?"
"Qingqing."
Qingbao couldn’t stand even the slightest doubt. It called out, meaning that just controlling the wind to bring out a Pet Beast Egg was no big deal.
As it spoke, it looked around, trying to control something to prove it had the ability to let the wind manipulate objects.
Right then, a boy’s marble suddenly rolled onto the floor.
Rolling under the tablecloth of a nearby dining table.
Four fashionably dressed young people—two men and two women—were sitting at that table, unaware that a marble had rolled under it.
"Qingqing."
Qingbao called out, and a sudden gust of wind appeared out of nowhere, lifting up that table’s cloth.
The tablecloth, which had been only about one centimeter from the floor, flew up high.
Underneath, they could see a marble lying quietly, and beside it, a leg in suit pants and leather shoes was gently rubbing against the calf of a lady sitting diagonally across.
Another slightly older man, startled by the sudden wind, instinctively bent down to look.
He just happened to see this scene.
His face changed dramatically; he suddenly stood up, yanked the man in the suit to his feet, and swung his fist at him.
The two women next to them hurried over to break up the fight.
The people and Pet Beasts eating nearby, seeing this, all had that gossiping light in their eyes. They whipped out their phones and started taking pictures.
Qingbao was completely unfazed, controlling the wind to roll the marble up and blow it back to the boy.
"The marble came back by itself!" the boy exclaimed excitedly, catching the marble.
Qingbao showed a proud expression, but quickly reined it in, looking at its Beast Tamer and its Beast Tamer’s teacher, waiting for their praise.
However, at this moment, Qiao Sang and Mikaela’s attention was entirely on the two men still fighting.
Who would’ve thought she could even catch some drama while eating... Qiao Sang picked up her phone, about to start recording.
Suddenly, an unusual gust of wind blew around them.
Qiao Sang realized something, put down her phone, and looked at Qingbao.
"Qingqing."
Seeing her Beast Tamer look over, Qingbao immediately gave a sweet smile and called out.
At the same time, that sudden gust of wind around them dispersed.
"Not bad, just as I thought—you really can control the wind to pick things up." Qiao Sang laughed.
"Qingqing."
Qingbao pretended to show a shy expression and called out.
"But." Qiao Sang changed the subject and continued, "Controlling wind here and controlling wind under the Void Cliff are two very different things. Even though the Energy from the spatial rift explosions can’t hurt the wind, it can completely scatter it."
"If the Pet Beast Egg happens to be in the wind at that moment, it’ll be shattered."
"We have to first confirm the Pet Beast Egg’s position, then make sure we bring it out from the Shadow Piercing before the spatial rift explodes."
"Qingqing?"
Qingbao showed a puzzled expression and called out.
If they could fully guarantee the spatial rift wouldn’t explode during that period, why bother with the wind at all? Wouldn’t it be enough to just have Little Treasure Spirit go over directly?
Good grief, that Elf Silk really didn’t go to waste—Qingbao’s IQ has shot up so much... Qiao Sang sighed inwardly and said:
"We really can’t completely guarantee it, so we still have to use the wind to bring the Pet Beast Egg out."
The Void Cliff was a forbidden area, extremely dangerous. Even if there was a ninety-nine percent chance the spatial rifts below wouldn’t explode during that period, she still wouldn’t dare let Little Treasure Spirit go down and take the risk.
After all, it was fragile as hell. It wasn’t like Gangbao, who had Absolute Defense and, once its Skill Level improved, could at least hold out for a few seconds.
"Qingqing."
Qingbao nodded.
Looks like it still all comes down to me.
"Qingqing?"
Qingbao suddenly thought of something and called out again, asking if it should call on the wind to locate the Pet Beast Egg.
"We need that." Qiao Sang nodded. "There are spatial rifts and explosions cropping up all the time under the Void Cliff. It’s not easy for Little Treasure Spirit to lock onto a position."
"Qingqing."
Qingbao showed a "guess it’s still up to me" proud expression.
At this time, Mikaela withdrew her gaze and asked, "What exactly do you mean by ’we need’?"
"The Pet Beast Egg’s position." Qiao Sang answered.
"You don’t have to worry about that." Mikaela took a sip of her drink and said, "I already know where that Pet Beast is."
