The five landed steadily on the shore of the lake in the Fate Defying Valley. Luo Can took a deep breath, feeling the rich life energy in the air, and couldn't help but sigh softly, "Finally home."
As soon as he finished speaking, they heard a rumbling sound of footsteps approaching. Stone, along with his henchman Ghost Tiger, rushed up to them, with Big Head constantly nudging towards Luo Can.
Luo Can smiled and stepped forward, reaching out to rub the heads of the two Spirit Beast. Stone and Ghost Tiger both squinted their eyes, looking quite pleased.
"It's so comfortable staying at home!" Qian Renxue stretched out a big yawn, her bones making a soft cracking sound, her face full of contentment.
Ju Zi adjusted her glasses, turned to look at Luo Can, and said firmly, "Tonight, A-Can is mine."
Qian Renxue's eyes changed instantly, and she glared at Ju Zi, saying, "No way! I haven't spent much more time with my husband than you have in the past two weeks, so tonight is mine!"
Ju Zi took a step forward, unyielding. "You've been with A-Can for the past two months, while I've only been able to look at his portrait to relieve my boredom. On my first night back home, I absolutely refuse to give it to you!"
Qian Renxue immediately grabbed Luo Can's arm, raised her chin, and said, "Anyway, I'm not going to give my husband to you!"
Not to be outdone, Ju Zi reached out and grabbed Luo Can's other arm, looking up at him. " A-Can, you tell me, who are you with tonight?"
Feeling the two burning gazes, Luo Can couldn't help but groan inwardly: Sure enough, wherever there is a harem, there is bound to be Asura!
The three young girls beside them, Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan, exchanged a glance, their faces showing a helpless expression that said, "Master and mistresses are about to start again." They instinctively grabbed Tang Ya, who was still looking curious, and quietly called to Shi Tou and Ghost Tiger, before disappearing in a flash.
After hesitating for a while, Luo Can's eyes lit up, and he took out his fishing rod, saying with a forced smile, "I'm going Fishing tonight."
Qian Renxue and Ju Zi exchanged a glance, then said in unison, "Then we'll go with you!"
And so, under the intense gaze of the two witches, Luo Can walked to the lakeside and began his first fishing trip since returning home.
Casting the rod into the water, reeling it in— the Fishing time, which usually flies by, seemed exceptionally long today. Stared at by two pairs of eyes, Luo Can felt incredibly uncomfortable; every second felt like an eternity.
However, perhaps because I hadn't Fishing in a long time, I was exceptionally lucky today, and my catch rate was much higher than usual. In the first few casts, I caught high-quality black items, all of which were useful pills, rare metals, and high-age Spirit Bone Soul Spirit.
Time passed little by little, and before we knew it, we had reached the thirty-sixth stroke.
Only half an hour remains until the end of the daily Fishing.
Luo Can's gaze kept sweeping over Qian Renxue and Ju Zi beside him. The two girls' eyes were getting more and more intense as they looked at him, their desires clearly saying, "We're going to devour you in a minute."
"What's done is done. If it's going to happen, I can't escape it. At worst, I'll just have to suffer a little more." With this thought in mind, Luo Can calmed down completely and refocused his attention on the fishing rod in his hand.
More than twenty minutes had passed since the thirty-sixth cast was in the water, but the fishing line was still motionless. Luo Can instantly perked up – it seemed that his first fishing trip back home was going to be a big one!
When the time reached the twenty-eighth minute, the previously calm fishing line suddenly began to shake violently, and a huge pulling force came from the fishing rod. Luo Can was overjoyed. He knew that this cast would definitely yield a red-quality item!
He exerted his strength, gripped the fishing rod tightly with both hands, and pulled back. With a splashing sound, a huge bear-like Spirit Beast was pulled directly out of the lake and landed heavily on the open ground by the lake. The rich red soul power emanating from its body indicated that it was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.
This Spirit Beast was covered in dark golden fur, and its two thick forelimbs had gleaming dark golden claws. When it stood up, it was twelve meters tall, its arms were over eight meters long, and its giant claws were two meters long. Just standing there, it exuded a fierce and domineering aura.
"Tsk tsk! This aura is too strong. Let me see what your background is!" Luo Can immediately checked the information provided by the system.
[ Spirit Beast: Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear ( Hundred Thousand Years )]
[Brief Introduction: The absolute overlord among bear-type Spirit Beast, possessing extreme metal attribute and super strong attack power. Even after just breaking through Hundred Thousand Years, its strength can still rival a level 96 Super Douluo.]
"It's actually Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear!" Luo Can's eyes lit up instantly.
He remembered that in the era of Douluo Dalu II, Xiong Jun, the patriarch of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, had only a cultivation of over 400,000 Ten Thousand Years, yet he dared to go head-to-head with the 800,000-year-old Beast God Di Tian with a single move, the Sky-Rending Claw. His strength was ridiculously powerful.
The creature he caught, though only Hundred Thousand Years old, was only slightly weaker than himself and Qian Renxue in the entire Fate Defying Pavilion.
After landing on the ground, the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear first shook its massive head, its dark gold pupils scanning the surroundings before finally settling on Luo Can.
A hint of doubt flashed in its eyes at first, then it spoke in a deep, booming voice. "Human? Strange, why do you make me feel so close to you?"
Luo Can thought for a moment and casually explained, "It's probably because I have the bloodline of the Dragon King in my body."
That was all he could say. After all, the creatures the system caught would be absolutely loyal to him, and this loyalty transformed into an innate sense of closeness. In addition, he did indeed possess one percent of the Golden Dragon King Bloodline, so it was entirely reasonable to say that.
"This is really strange. How can a human body have a bloodline of Di Tian's level?" The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was even more puzzled. He held his head and thought for a long time, but he couldn't figure it out. In the end, he simply waved his hand and gave up on thinking about it.
"Do you know Di Tian?" Luo Can asked curiously.
The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear shook its large head. "I don't know him. He's our clan leader's new boss. I heard his true form is the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King, and his strength is ridiculously high. Our clan leader even used his Sky-Rending Claw, but he was still defeated by him."
Luo Can nodded knowingly, then asked, "My name is Luo Can, and I am the owner of this Fate Defying Valley. What is your name?"
The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear grinned, revealing a set of sharp fangs, and shouted, "My name is Xiong Da!"
Upon hearing this name, Luo Can's lips twitched involuntarily, instantly recalling the time in his past life when he was dominated by "Boonie Bears".
He walked up to Xiong Da, patted its thick thigh, and asked with a smile, " Xiong Da, is there another one in your tribe named Xiong Er?"
Xiong Da's huge head suddenly stopped, his dark golden pupils filled with surprise, and he exclaimed, "Huh? How did you know? My brother's name is Xiong Er!"
"Just a guess." Luo Can smiled, offering no further explanation, and instead inquired about the people in its world and recent events.
Xiong Da didn't hide anything and told him everything, "Recently, there's a human named Huo Yuhao who's been cooperating with Di Tian to create some kind of Soul Spirit, wanting to make Spirit Beast form contracts with humans. My boss, Xiong Jun, doesn't trust humans and thinks they have ulterior motives, so he secretly used some tricks during the contract process, and as a result, he just got a beating from Di Tian."
Looking at the honest-looking Xiong Da in front of him, Luo Can couldn't help but sigh, his tone tinged with regret. "Alas, your clan leader's concerns were justified. In the end, this Soul Spirit Method has only accelerated the demise of the entire Soul Beast Clan."
