Chapter 94: Speculating on the Ghost’s Whereabouts
The Ghost was initially very smug, but after Doctor Bai went on a business trip, it became silent.
At least Song Tiantian hadn’t seen the Ghost in a long time.
Song Tiantian felt that the Ghost knew she had a Pet Beast Manual and could easily see through its disguise, so the Ghost was unwilling to sneak into the Pet Beast Center anymore.
Wang Liu Xuan sent Song Tiantian a message to report her safety, stating that she and her brother had successfully left Qingshan City.
The Ghost’s kill list was also paused at this moment.
Although the Law Enforcement Officer did not catch the Ghost, the Ghost had not killed anyone else.
The Ghost only stated the death order on the kill list, but it never mentioned the time of the killings; it could kill now, or it could kill a hundred years later.
As long as it killed according to the order, it would not be violating its oath.
Coupled with Doctor Bai’s departure.
Song Tiantian became even more certain of one thing.
That is, both the Ghost and Doctor Bai had most likely left Qingshan City and gone elsewhere.
This so-called kill list was deliberately created by the Ghost, with the aim of delaying Doctor Bai’s time, wanting Doctor Bai to spend more of his energy and time in Qingshan City, wasting some time.
All of this was just Song Tiantian’s speculation.
After all, she had not yet reached that level, and there were many hidden pieces of information that Song Tiantian did not know.
During these days, Song Ranran worked very hard, and she finally saved enough money to buy Cold Fragrance Number Two.
She made an appointment for today.
Facing her Eldest Sister, Song Tiantian would naturally have to take care of her.
“Tiantian, you absolutely must not leave the Pet Beast Center during these days. Although you are the last person on the list, you are still on it, and the Pet Beast Center is currently the safest place.”
Song Ranran cautioned Song Tiantian.
She had now managed to somewhat integrate into the Beast Tamer circle.
Knowing some of Doctor Bai’s hidden identity, it could be said that there were no absolutely safe places in this world anymore.
“Don’t worry! I’ll protect myself. Are you planning to advance to a Two-star Beast Tamer now? Have you saved enough money to buy your second Pet Beast?”
“Father hasn’t even advanced to a Two-star Beast Tamer yet, how could I possibly do it so quickly? I just want to improve my Cultivation Progress.”
Song Ranran now understood what a bottleneck was.
She thought breaking through from One Star to Two Star would be simple, but in reality, it was a world of difference.
Her Green Snake Spider was very easy to raise and didn’t require too many Resources.
So her early cultivation was quite smooth, but by the mid-stage of a One-star Beast Tamer, her cultivation speed slowed down considerably.
It was at this point that she thought of Cold Fragrance Number Two.
This Tea Water could enhance Mental Power and speed up Cultivation Progress.
She felt that perhaps her Talent was a bit mediocre.
“Father’s Iron-eating Beast’s Talent is slightly worse than your Green Snake Spider’s, so it’s normal for his Cultivation Progress to be slower than yours.”
“Father’s Cultivation Progress isn’t slow! He’s quite diligent. He used to like going out to play cards and fish, but now he doesn’t do any of that. Even though the younger brother was born, he doesn’t take care of him much now, focusing solely on cultivation. Every day he thinks about how to earn Energy Stones for the Iron-eating Beast he has a Contract with. He’s already in the late stage of a One-star Beast Tamer, just a little bit away from leveling up.”
Song Ranran also hadn’t expected that Father Song, at his age, was actually trying so hard now.
“He’s not that old, not yet fifty. This is the prime time for him to strive. In a few more years, he won’t be able to push himself as hard. After you go back, go find Father. We’ll set a time, and I’ll take you both to a Secret Realm to pick out better Pet Beasts for you.
The Pet Beasts at the Pet Beast Center are too expensive; even slightly better ones don’t come cheap. In the Secret Realm, the Pet Beasts are free.”
“Tiantian, aren’t you being targeted by the Ghost right now? Wouldn’t it be too dangerous if you went to the Secret Realm?”
Song Ranran frowned and said.
“I can’t stay here forever. Moreover, the Salary here isn’t even enough for my Pet Beast to eat. Secondly, I’m already at the late stage of a Three-star Beast Tamer and will soon break through to a Four-star Beast Tamer. I need to find some Resources in the Secret Realm.
Don’t tell anyone about this, keep it a secret, not even Song Jiaojiao. I’m afraid the Ghost still thinks I’m at the Pet Beast Center.”
Song Tiantian had actually guessed that the Ghost might have already left the Pet Beast Center. She had to seize this time to develop herself well.
She couldn’t rely on others for protection her entire life.
Moreover, the Hell Ghost Vine’s promotion speed was truly super fast. It was already at the peak of Three-star and would soon advance to Four-star, only lacking Flesh and Blood.
“Tiantian, is it safe for just us to go to the Secret Realm? The Official recently released an announcement that the Fierce Beasts in the Secret Realm have increased, and the danger level has risen sharply. Many Fierce Beasts have also escaped from the Secret Realm. Now, to enter a Secret Realm, you must have had a Contract with a Pet Beast for at least three months, and you must have an experienced veteran who has been to a Secret Realm to lead the team.”
Song Ranran actually hadn’t been to the Secret Realm much lately; several of her friends had gone missing in the Secret Realm.
“Don’t worry! I’ve been to the Secret Realm many times. Otherwise, why do you think my promotion speed is so fast? Secondly, with the world being so dangerous now, if we don’t seize the opportunity to Increase Strength while it’s still relatively safe, it will only become more dangerous later on, and we’ll be at the bottom.
Chaos breeds heroes; chaos is a time for a reshuffle. If we don’t seize this opportunity, we’ll be stuck at the bottom for life. There’s no absolute safety in this world. If we form a team among ourselves, at least we don’t have to guard against teammates. If we discover any Good things, we’re all family.”
Seeing Song Tiantian’s confident demeanor, Song Ranran was also persuaded by her words.
However, when Song Tiantian handed the opened Cold Fragrance Number Two to Song Ranran, Song Ranran almost gagged. She almost gagged while shedding tears; the taste was truly indescribable. How could this be called tea, and even named Cold Fragrance Number Two? In Song Ranran’s opinion, it should be called Stinky Tea.
She had never eaten anything so disgusting in her life.
But after drinking it, she felt as if she had suddenly awakened, feeling refreshed and invigorated.
She could clearly feel the change in herself. Her cultivation speed instantly accelerated, and she felt that she would be able to break through to a Two-star Beast Tamer in less than two months.
This Cold Fragrance Number Two truly lived up to its reputation; no wonder it was so popular. It was really amazing.
When Song Ranran returned home, she felt as if she were floating.
She told Father Song what Song Tiantian had said. Song Ranran expected Father Song to hesitate, but he agreed without any hesitation.
However, Father Song did not tell Mother Song about this. He only told Mother Song that he was going on a business trip for a few days and handed all the family’s Savings to Mother Song.
Song Ranran often went out to play and was rarely home, so Mother Song didn’t notice her departure.
