Take Out the Healer First (Extra)

"Ya!"

Ya Bao's magnificent body stood proudly amid the flames.

"Yun!"

Qi Yunla stopped channeling its energy. It stared blankly at the figure covered in flames before its eyes, then its eyes instantly filled with tears.

A hero!

Zhang Rongtang, meanwhile, frowned impatiently as he looked at the Flame Listening Dog before him, whose aura and condition were completely different from before.

The Blaze Trait again. Was this ever going to end?

"Old Nonsense, dar—" Zhang Rongtang had just been about to order the Nonsense Evil Spirit to attack when a girl's voice sounded beside him:

"Wu Chang, give Qi Yunla to me."

Zhang Rongtang froze for a moment, then realized something and abruptly looked to the side. The girl who had just fallen had somehow already gotten back to her feet!

It completely threw him off.

Why had the Nonsense Evil Spirit's Hypnosis become so short?!

To break free from hypnosis quickly, one either needed strong external interference or sufficiently powerful Mental Strength.

How could a child still in school possibly have strong Mental Strength?!

Time rewound to one minute earlier.

Ya Bao had been sent flying beneath a large tree, while Little Treasure was still falling through the air. Qi Yunla cried out several times, and invisible sound waves rippled over Qiao Sang, Ya Bao, and Little Treasure.

Once the faint trembling in the air subsided, a Two-Headed Black Crow happened to fly beneath Little Treasure. It was promptly struck head-on by the falling Little Treasure.

"Caw!"

The Two-Headed Black Crow shook its heads and looked down at the pitch-black culprit, nearly invisible in the night.

Little Treasure was still falling.

"Caw caw!"

As a Dark-type Pet Beast with an intense desire for revenge, how could the Two-Headed Black Crow tolerate such an affront?

It flapped its wings fiercely, accelerated to Little Treasure's side, then stretched out its claws and gave Little Treasure's face a hard kick before flying away in satisfaction.

That kick changed both Little Treasure's direction and speed of descent. By sheer coincidence, it crashed right into Qiao Sang's face.

The pain woke Qiao Sang immediately.

And that led to what had just happened.

Wu Chang came back to his senses and stared blankly at the girl before him. He had never expected Qiao Sang to keep protecting Qi Yunla even after being attacked.

"Give it to me, now!" Seeing that he still had not moved after all this time, Qiao Sang had no choice but to say it again.

"Yunyun!" Qi Yunla also slapped the device with its claws, urging Wu Chang to hurry.

Wu Chang was a good person, but he was too weak!

It felt safer staying beside the hero's Beastmaster now.

Wu Chang finally reacted. Without saying anything, he handed over the device containing Qi Yunla.

If there was still anyone in this world worth trusting, he felt that Qiao Sang was one of them.

After taking the device, Qiao Sang quickly called out, "Ya Bao!"

"Ya!"

Ya Bao flashed and Teleported to its Beastmaster's side.

Qiao Sang swung herself onto Ya Bao's back.

As though it had known its Beastmaster would do this, the flames covering Ya Bao's body extinguished completely a second before Qiao Sang climbed on.

"Let's go!" Qiao Sang shouted.

"Ya!"

Ya Bao ran into the sky.

Wu Chang: "???"

"After them!" Zhang Rongtang said with a grim expression as he mounted the Stout Crested Flying Owl.

Wu Chang watched the two figures chasing each other through the air with a blank expression. Just as he was completely unable to make sense of the situation and seriously began suspecting that he had trusted the wrong person again, a voice rang out from above:

"Stop standing around! Hurry and call the police!"

Call the police?

Right! Call the police!

Wu Chang instantly understood. Qiao Sang was drawing their attention away!

Realizing this, he frantically pulled out his phone while running toward an area with signal.

Because Ya Bao had only just activated its Blaze Trait, it was so fast that the Stout Crested Flying Owl could not catch up for the moment.

However, the energy gap between an Intermediate Pet Beast and a General-level Pet Beast was simply vast. Even with the Blaze Trait's boost, the Stout Crested Flying Owl was still much faster than Ya Bao.

Seeing that the other side was about to catch up, Qiao Sang looked down and said, "Stop here."

Without another word, Ya Bao ran downward.

It was a desolate clearing. After getting down, Qiao Sang did not choose to flee. She knew she could only stall for time; she could not possibly escape.

The instant Qiao Sang swung herself down, Zhang Rongtang arrived as well.

"You think running here and having Wu Chang call the police can stop me?" Zhang Rongtang got down from the Stout Crested Flying Owl and said with a dark expression.

How fast could the police possibly be? By the time they arrived, everything would already be over.

The night was like water. A cold wind swept past, and the surroundings exuded desolation and bleakness.

"I never thought that would stop you." Clear moonlight broke through the clouds and shone down as Qiao Sang calmly said, "I only came here because I thought making too much noise fighting over there would be bad."

What a joke. Deliberately damaging someone else's grave could result in five to ten days of detention, or ten to fifteen days if the circumstances were serious. How was she supposed to compete after that?!

Zhang Rongtang paused, only then remembering that they had been in the middle of a graveyard.

His gaze shifted. He had not expected the child before him to be so thoughtful and kind. What a pity. If she did not have this habit of meddling in other people's business, he could have had a proper conversation with her.

While Zhang Rongtang was sighing inwardly, Qiao Sang formed a Hand Seal with both hands. A green star array lit up in the darkness.

"Lu."

Luobao appeared in the star array.

The sight before him made Zhang Rongtang's expression stiffen.

A green star array?!

Three Pet Beasts?!

If she was competing alongside Wu Chang, then she had to be a senior in high school.

She had developed her Brain Domain to this extent while still in her final year of high school? This province actually had such an incredible genius?!

Zhang Rongtang was utterly shocked.

"Luobao, heal Little Treasure first." Qiao Sang placed the still-sleeping Little Treasure on the ground.

"Lu."

The moment Luobao appeared, it sensed that something was wrong. It nodded solemnly, and then the gem on its forehead lit up with blue light.

Though Zhang Rongtang did not recognize the Pet Beast before him, he knew perfectly well that it was healing.

The Treasure Hunting Fairy was not much of a threat, but this Pet Beast that could use healing skills was rather troublesome.

In a fight, take out the healer first. That was the truth.

"End this directly." Zhang Rongtang formed a Hand Seal with both hands and summoned Watch Mum and the Nonsense Evil Spirit again, having recalled them into the Pet Beast Codex earlier for flight.

"Mum."

Watch Mum's eyes glowed blue, and a blue blade resembling a sickle, roughly one meter long, instantly condensed in the air.

Illusion Slash, a High-Level Skill. It was a single-target, long-range Psychic Type attack. As long as it struck its target, its damage could erupt instantly, making it tremendously powerful.

"Nonsense."

At the same time, the Nonsense Evil Spirit stretched out its claws and flicked each of its short toes. Several bead-like spheres, each only as large as a bullet and radiating an eerie purple glow, appeared before its toes.

Calamity Shadow Bullet, a Ghost-type High-Level Skill. Its attack speed was so fast that the naked eye could not track it, and it possessed extremely powerful Penetration, inflicting tremendous damage on its target.
