Chapter 116: Saving Dr. Bai
In this space, Da Bai felt that everything belonged to Song Tiantian.
Unless Song Tiantian explicitly stated who could take the spiritual plants here, Da Bai wouldn’t interfere. But since Song Tiantian hadn’t said anything, Da Bai prevented anyone from casually moving them.
Although Da Bai couldn’t win, every time a fight broke out and caused a significant commotion, Song Tiantian would know.
Using its vine tail, it was obvious who Song Tiantian would side with.
The Hell Ghost Vine previously thought Da Bai relied solely on pleasing Song Tiantian, which led Song Tiantian to make many excellent things for it to eat.
Otherwise, how could a mere Iron-eating Beast’s talent improve so rapidly, almost catching up to it?
So, under normal circumstances, the Hell Ghost Vine wouldn’t bother with Da Bai. After all, those fertilizers were its, and Da Bai couldn’t eat them all.
It was just a matter of eating them a little earlier or later.
But now, things were different. An Illusion Grass had arrived, and Illusion Grass also consumed fertilizer.
Illusion Grass consumed its share.
Moreover, Illusion Grass wasn’t very capable. Upon reaching the restricted area, it started acting like a turtle, only knowing how to eat all day.
The Hell Ghost Vine used to be impartial towards Da Bai because, at that time, it still needed Illusion Grass’s help to save the White Lotus.
Now that Illusion Grass was useless, the Owner was fighting for her life outside.
For its sake, she was willing to risk so much to save the White Lotus.
They could still recover their strength in this Pet Beast Space, but Song Tiantian had nowhere to rest outside.
Illusion Grass was still feasting here, embezzling the Owner’s private property. Taking advantage of the Owner’s current preoccupation and inability to manage the Pet Beast Space, it actually intended to devour the precious spiritual plants the Owner had risked her life for.
Unbearable, the Hell Ghost Vine immediately charged forward and gave Illusion Grass a thorough beating.
Da Bai was two levels lower than Illusion Grass. Although its strength far surpassed Illusion Grass, it couldn’t defeat Illusion Grass and was completely bamboozled.
Illusion Grass’s ability to create illusions could fool Da Bai, but it couldn’t fool it.
It was once an eight-star peak Fierce Beast. Its strength had declined, but its mental energy had not.
【You trash vine, ambushing me!】
Illusion Grass was furious.
【Running dog, a human’s running dog!】
It hadn’t expected this vine to have no backbone at all, becoming a running dog for that human, just like that bear.
The things in this Pet Beast Space belonged to them, the pet beasts.
Besides, what was wrong with them eating? Improving their strength would allow them to better help the Owner.
This vine was still its defeated opponent.
If it hadn’t advanced, and with Song Tiantian’s strength advancing, and then bringing these burdens along to advance.
How could these burdens possibly be its opponents?
Don’t be fooled by Illusion Grass’s insults of “running dog.” In its heart of hearts, it wished Song Tiantian only had it as a pet beast.
It believed that with its talent and Song Tiantian’s talent, one person and one beast would surely become a legendary pet beast and a legendary Beast Tamer very quickly.
These two pet beasts were burdens; Song Tiantian had to divide some of her energy and Spiritual Power for them.
The Hell Ghost Vine, unwilling to be outdone, retaliated with its mental power.
【Who was the one kneeling and begging for a Contract? The Owner didn’t even want to contract you; I was the one the Owner solemnly requested to contract with me.】
The Hell Ghost Vine felt that Song Tiantian had taken pity on Illusion Grass. When it acted, it could sense that Song Tiantian had no intention of contracting with Illusion Grass; she didn’t have the inclination.
It was Illusion Grass’s pitiful begging that made Song Tiantian contract with it.
At this moment, Da Bai straightened its back. The Owner had also greatly desired to contract with it, which was why it contracted with the Owner.
Only Illusion Grass begged the Owner to contract with it.
Da Bai could roughly understand the meaning the Hell Ghost Vine’s mental fluctuations were trying to convey.
Illusion Grass was extremely angry, but after Da Bai and the Hell Ghost Vine joined forces, it was completely outmatched.
Clearly, the Hell Ghost Vine could previously be fooled by its illusions.
But now, it couldn’t fool the Hell Ghost Vine anymore.
It could only blame itself for being too excellent. By contracting with Song Tiantian, it had also raised the strength of the two burdens.
This led to these two burdens now being able to see through its illusions.
Furthermore, its illusions were designed for a single decisive blow. They couldn’t be used repeatedly. If used repeatedly, people would become wary.
Illusion Grass felt miserable!
But there was no one to tell, as it had been beaten so badly that it couldn’t even send out mental fluctuations to accuse Da Bai and the Hell Ghost Vine.
The spiritual plants here originally belonged to them, the pet beasts, to eat.
After being beaten, Illusion Grass’s leaves were scattered, looking like they had been ravaged.
It could only lower its stance and speak kindly to the two burdens, proposing a truce and suggesting they share the spiritual plants here.
It had previously wanted to devour everything alone, but now it was being very generous, suggesting the three pet beasts divide it equally.
But these two pet beasts were determined to be running dogs, and no amount of persuasion worked.
Illusion Grass was speechless.
The Hell Ghost Vine had clearly been the same as it before. Although it was very respectful to Song Tiantian in front of her, within the Pet Beast Space, it was actually a bit indifferent.
It even often hinted to it that it didn’t need to listen to Song Tiantian too much.
Fortunately, it didn’t fall for it. Every time Song Tiantian ordered it around, it was very proactive.
This was how Song Tiantian made several exquisite beverages for it.
This allowed its strength to advance so quickly.
Thinking back now, this vine was a scheming vine, deliberately acting like a good person in front of Song Tiantian and even giving it fertilizer to eat.
But how could one vine eat so much fertilizer? Eating too much also burned its leaves. Although it had illusionary abilities before, it couldn’t eat its fill. Where had it ever eaten so many good things!
It was no wonder it was dazed from eating.
It kept eating and eating. Only now did it realize that no matter how good something was, one shouldn’t eat too much.
…
Song Tiantian was unaware of everything happening in the Pet Beast Space. She was still diligently absorbing Spiritual Energy, advancing slowly.
This was because she saw Dr. Bai.
Dr. Bai seemed to be on his last legs.
He was tied to a pillar, his face pale. His clothes were intact, just a bit dusty.
The White Lotus had now turned into a Black Lotus. It was nailed to the ground with an iron nail, and a black crow was also nailed down.
The White Lotus’s petals had withered and curled up, looking very dehydrated, almost turning into a dried lotus flower.
As for the black crow, its condition was even more tragic, with its feathers falling out all over the place.
Seeing Dr. Bai in this state, Song Tiantian knew he must not have been eating or drinking well these past few days.
The key question was how Dr. Bai ended up trapped here.
Why hadn’t anyone from the Official organization come to rescue Dr. Bai?
Song Tiantian had no time to ponder these questions. She immediately released the Hell Ghost Vine and had it carry her to rush over at full speed.
The Hell Ghost Vine had no time to show off in front of the White Lotus at this moment and quickly pulled out the nails embedded in the White Lotus’s body.
