1066: Chapter 1067: Doubts 1066: Chapter 1067: Doubts “Speaking of which, how’s your task coming along?
I didn’t expect you to fail at running off with Anernia~”
Feng Yuan said with a weird smile, and glanced at Guo Huai, who replied irritably,
“I’m not like you, able to chum around with Divine Beasts.
It’s good enough that it doesn’t toy with —I dare not hope to run off with it.”
He was self-aware enough to know that even though his background was a bit special, it alone wouldn’t make the Divine Beasts look at him differently.
As for Feng Yuan?
Although he didn’t know the exact reasons, thinking about that guy’s legends and the strength he had witnessed, Guo was sure that Feng Yuan was definitely no weaker than those Divine Beasts.
With his knowledge from a previous life, he always believed that only when strength was equal would those Divine Beasts truly respect soone.
And those Divine Pact Makers?
They were just their playthings.
Otherwise, why would only Feng Yuan receive such special treatnt from so many Divine Beasts?
Feng Yuan didn’t know what Guo Huai was thinking, assuming he just lacked the confidence.
Looking at Pu Pu next to Guo Huai, he said,
“That’s true, Anernia has quite a peculiar personality.
It’s hard to guess what kind of person it would prefer.
But for you, it seems that being a Divine Pact Maker isn’t so important~”
Guo Huai was taken aback and glanced at Pu Pu floating beside him, then laughed and said,
“That’s true.
What difference does it make being a Divine Pact Maker?
Still bound by the gas of the upper echelons.”
Although Pu Pu wasn’t a Divine Beast, Guo was confident that with the system’s help, he could beco one of the strongest.
And those Divine Pact Makers?
They were no longer comparable.
After all, that was a teoric rise.
Moreover, no Divine Pact Maker could avoid society’s social transactions unless they refrained from interacting with human society altogether.
Agunas, flicking its tail contemptuously, said,
“That’s just their own choice.
If they really didn’t want to, what problem could there be?”
Speaking of this, it glanced at Feng Yuan.
If this guy chose not to actively engage with the officials from Great Xia, they probably wouldn’t reach out to him either.
And that Divine Pact Maker from Ernis, as one of the Guardian Divine Beasts of the Oilia Region, despite the havoc it had wreaked before, those high-ups wouldn’t give up on courting it.
But so far, it hadn’t heard of any country openly contacting its Divine Pact Maker.
“That’s hard to say; after all, they are Divine Pact Makers.
As long as they live in human society, they can never escape it.
As for …
haven’t I already mingled with them?”
Feng Yuan scratched his head and said.
He wasn’t sure what gave Agunas the illusion that Divine Pact Makers were left undisturbed.
Even Yang Hongzhi had been approached by other countries’ representatives.
Although they knew it was almost impossible, they still weren’t ready to give up altogether.
As for himself?
He had already interacted with Great Xia’s top brass, hadn’t he?
And he had even spent so ti in the Special Duty Team.
Everyone understood that if he felt no attachnt to Great Xia, what would punishnt matter?
If he really wanted to leave, they couldn’t stop him.
It was because of this that they had given up before even beginning to act.
“So, isn’t it good to just be an ordinary Beast Tar?”
Guo Huai seed to say nonchalantly.
Feng Yuan glanced at him and asked,
“Are you serious about that?”
“Well…”
Guo Huai looked at Feng Yuan, hesitating for a mont.
At that mont, Qi Xiaoshuang chuckled lightly and said,
“Actually, it’s not a big deal.
I often think that if I could beco a Divine Pact Maker, maybe my life would change drastically.
Although I think about it less often lately, isn’t it normal to have such hopes?”
Qi Chen didn’t know what to say to Qi Xiaoshuang.
In terms of age, before Najia and Yang Hongzhi signed their Divine Beast pacts, they had never thought such a thing could happen.
But for Xiao Shuang, perhaps having the White Shadow Wolf was enough?
“The higher the expectations, the more unlikely it is to happen.
They may not truly see through people’s hearts, but they can still sense ulterior motives.”
Feng Yuan glanced at Agunas, who then flicked its tail and said,
“What if there are ulterior motives?
We only look at whether their personalities match.
Sotis, even if you feel you could beco good friends with soone, it just…”
Bowing his head, Agunas did not continue speaking.
Feng Yuan understood that Agunas was referring to those ambitious individuals.
Each Divine Beast had a different experience, and they liked interacting with different humans.
Even those ambitious people might beco confidants of certain Divine Beasts, but they were well aware of their responsibilities.
When the other party’s intentions were too dangerous, even if reluctantly, they could absolutely not choose them to beco their Divine Pact Maker.
In fact, such events had happened before…
“Hey?
Why has the security beco so strict?” Feng Yuan, sowhat surprised, looked at the entrance of the Stray Spirit Beast Paradise where two uniford individuals were on duty, clearly mbers of the Special Duty Team.
Though they were auxiliary mbers, it still indicated that the place was under close surveillance by the Special Duty Team.
But why?
“Is soone poaching Stray Spirit Beasts?” Feng Yuan asked the man in front of him, surprised.
Although he had suspected this possibility before, encountering it still startled him.
It wasn’t that he thought those people really wouldn’t harm the Spirit Beasts here; it just seed odd since this was a test area and hardly a secret.
One could guess that the entire Maomu City would be watching this place.
To target this place now, were they not afraid Maomu City would arrest people?
Wait!
It actually might be possible.
Feng Yuan vaguely recalled the individuals who had just tried to attack him.
If it was those people, that wouldn’t be surprising.
“Could it be those people from earlier?
If it is them, perhaps they don’t know this place is being monitored.” Qi Xiaoshuang spoke out, and Feng Yuan thought for a mont and said,
“We’ll find out soon enough.
I believe Liao Yu and the others will definitely inquire into this matter.
Of course, if you’re not at ease, you can go check it out.”
Glancing at the restless Agunas, Feng Yuan said.
One could easily guess what it was thinking from its deanor.
After hesitating for a mont, Agunas said,
“I will leave for a while.”
Watching Agunas drift away, Veronia smirked and said,
“He really makes no effort to hide his thoughts.”
“There’s no need, right?
Does he really need to care about them?
But I’m still very curious about what exactly you’re trying to concoct, even going as far as to learn from that peculiar rabbit.”
Feng Yuan said, looking suspiciously toward Guo Huai, learning Potion formulation from a problematic dicine-Pounding Rabbit?
That must have impure motives.
“What’s with that look…”
Guo Huai, speechless, glanced at Feng Yuan.
Surely that guy wasn’t thinking crooked, right?
Qi Chen also looked at Guo Huai with so confusion.
Indeed, he didn’t know the exact situation with the dicine-Pounding Rabbit, but according to Liao Yu, it seed the potions it produced weren’t exactly legitimate.
What was Guo Huai trying to do by learning from that rabbit?
If it were a classmate of three years, perhaps he wouldn’t be so suspicious, but Guo Huai had only been a classmate for less than half a year.
He wasn’t very clear about Guo Huai’s character, but…
if there were indeed so shady ideas, would anyone say them out loud?
Qi Xiaoshuang swept her gaze over Feng Yuan and said,
“It might not necessarily be for sothing nefarious, and besides, that dicine-Pounding Rabbit might not have particularly strange effects targeted at Spirit Beasts.”
She wasn’t entirely sure, but she guessed Guo Huai might be seeking help in the field of Spirit Beast potions from the rabbit.
At that mont, the person in charge spoke up,
“Are you looking for that strange rabbit?
It seems it isn’t in the park at the mont; at this hour, it’s usually out gathering ingredients.
You probably need to wait about two hours.”
He said while glancing at his wristwatch,
“It should be back around 3:25 in the afternoon.”
“Looking for ingredients?
But that makes sense, you wouldn’t provide the raw materials.”
Feng Yuan paused for a mont before realizing.
This place rely offered the city’s Stray Spirit Beasts a place to stay, at most feeding them so food, but definitely not providing any bizarre potion ingredients for them to play with.
He glanced at Guo Huai and didn’t say anything further, his interest in the dicine-Pounding Rabbit was rely slight, and missing it was no big deal.
