Chapter 128: The Second Volume of the Pet Beast Manual
Gongsun Yu knew very well that Doctor Bai was a person who valued his reputation.
Song Tiantian could be said to be someone Doctor Bai had publicly declared he would protect.
Moreover, Song Tiantian had helped him, but Liu Zhe’s brain seemed to have short-circuited, actually making things difficult for Song Tiantian in public.
This was clearly an act of targeting Song Tiantian.
The key was that Song Tiantian had not made any mistakes, and this was not how one established authority.
Suppressing Song Tiantian was one thing, but attempting assassination was truly going too far.
Gongsun Yu had not expected Liu Zhe to be so despicable.
This Wish Bird was indeed not good stock; fortunately, he had not formed a Contract with it.
Back then, he had discovered the Wish Bird with Gold Talent that Liu Zhe had presented.
However, his Pet Beast, the Vermilion Bird, had conveyed a very bad feeling to him, warning him not to form a Contract with the Wish Bird at all costs.
Furthermore, he had discovered that Liu Zhe’s two Pet Beasts did not have Gold Talent; they only had Silver Talent.
Therefore, after much deliberation, he had reluctantly given up on the Wish Bird.
It was only recently that his grandfather had discovered the Wish Bird’s true Talent. The Wish Bird was extremely rare, and once it was born safely, its Talent would definitely be that of a Divine Beast Level Pet Beast.
The world believed that the highest Talent for Pet Beasts was Gold Level, but above that, there was a Divine Beast Level Talent.
His Vermilion Bird was Divine Beast Level, and so was the Wish Bird.
However, whose wishes the Wish Bird fulfilled remained unknown.
The Wish Bird did not form Contracts casually; it only bonded with individuals possessing great Luck.
When the Wish Bird encountered him, it actively expressed its willingness to form a Contract with him, and afterward, it refused all other Contracts.
The Wish Bird’s Talent was incredibly bizarre.
It wasn’t just about increasing Luck.
It also possessed another Skill: the ability to obscure perception and blur judgment.
After the Wish Bird was taken by Song Tiantian, Gongsun Yu’s Older Sister instantly regained clarity; her love for Liu Zhe vanished in an instant.
Especially after discovering that Liu Zhe was such a despicable person, she felt furious. The fact that she had fallen for such a despicable man was simply outrageous.
Gongsun Yu’s grandfather had actually seen information about the Wish Bird in an ancient text long ago, but the moment he approached the Wish Bird, his Memory was blurred. It was only after Song Tiantian sent the Wish Bird away that he recalled that Memory.
The Wish Bird was a master-killing Pet Beast; every Beast Tamer who formed a Contract with a Wish Bird met a terrible end.
Initially, they would experience extreme good fortune, and then their Owner’s personality would slowly change, becoming excessively arrogant. If anything displeased them even slightly, they would resort to murder.
If someone glanced at them on the street, they would feel wronged, believing the person harbored ill intentions, and then proceed to murder their entire family.
In the end, having made too many enemies, they would be killed by others.
Gongsun Yu believed that perhaps Liu Zhe had too little Luck, which was why the Wish Bird was unwilling to form a Contract with him.
However, the Wish Bird found another way: it stole Liu Zhe’s Luck.
Thinking of this, Gongsun Yu’s attitude towards Song Tiantian softened, and he asked her, “Liu Zhe mentioned before that the main reason he acted against you was that you gave the Wish Bird away. He was the Wish Bird’s previous Owner.
I’d like to ask you, who did you give the Wish Bird to?
Please don’t misunderstand; I’m not trying to take the Wish Bird away. It’s because the Wish Bird is an ominous creature. Every Owner who forms a Contract with it initially experiences immense good fortune, finding Supreme Treasures just by going out.
But later, the Beast Tamer’s personality, behavior, and speech would reveal an intense arrogance and dominance. For example, they might kill an entire family over a minor disagreement, acting decisively. Their eyes would betray deep disdain and contempt, as if even a passing dog deserved to be kicked. If they weren’t killed and managed to survive,
it would eventually develop to the point where they believed any woman they found attractive should be theirs. Until the Beast Tamer who contracted it finally encountered an enemy they couldn’t handle and was killed.
Because this Wish Bird is female, it only contracts with males and never with females; it only contracts with men.
If a male Wish Bird is encountered, the situation might be reversed.
Since there are no recorded instances of male Wish Birds yet, the specific situation can only be speculated upon.”
Gongsun Yu was being honest with Song Tiantian; he was not lying.
Everything he said was the truth.
He was genuinely curious about the Wish Bird’s next Owner.
Song Tiantian broke out in a cold sweat. She had almost formed a Contract with the Wish Bird.
This was no Wish Bird; the Pet Beast Manual clearly stated that Wish Birds could bring good luck.
How could this Pet Beast Manual be so misleading?
Song Tiantian opened the Pet Beast Manual, and there it was, the information about the Wish Bird.
Wish Bird: Can bring good luck or bad luck to people.
Skilled at enchanting the heart, making people see only what they wish to see.
【 Collecting the second volume of the Pet Beast Manual will unlock all information about the Wish Bird. 】
Truly a rip-off.
This Pet Beast Manual really does have a second volume.
Then the second volume must be in the hands of the Ghost, and it’s highly likely to be the Beast Codex that the Ghost mentioned.
But why couldn’t her Mind Reading read the Wish Bird’s complete Inner Voice?
The Wish Bird was definitely not a good bird; that was beyond doubt.
However, the Pet Beast Manual hadn’t lied to Song Tiantian; it had merely hidden the later information about the Wish Bird.
The Wish Bird could conceal a portion of its Inner Voice; its most important Inner Voice had not been heard.
But the Wish Bird definitely knew that she possessed a detection-type Skill or tool.
Otherwise, it wouldn’t have acted that way.
Song Tiantian suddenly remembered that the Wish Bird had made several probing attempts.
For instance, its taste preferences suddenly changed, and it suddenly wanted to attack Song Tiantian with bird droppings, but Song Tiantian dodged every time.
Afterward, the Wish Bird never attacked Song Tiantian with bird droppings again.
Song Tiantian only now realized that she had been played by the Wish Bird.
“No wonder I found that the Wish Bird really liked listening to music, and even when I found a music master to form a Contract with it, it was unwilling to.
After all, it was a Pet Beast with Gold Talent, and its Price wasn’t expensive, the same as Pet Beasts with Silver Talent. How could I not be tempted? I always wanted to form a Contract with it, but it was unwilling, so I didn’t force it.
I just thought it would be fine to find someone else to be its Owner.
But it was never successful. Afterward, I saw it looking dejected and very depressed.
I’m usually very frugal, even with my family, I’m quite stingy, but when it came to it, for some reason, I suddenly became generous and wanted to do a good deed, so I bought its freedom and let it go.
If Young Master Yu hadn’t come to find me and mentioned the Wish Bird again, I probably wouldn’t have thought anything was amiss.”
