Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 1976 - 1977: Following

"Let me ask it~"

Hearing this from Feng Yuan, Veronia became quite curious. After all, the Raging Wave Crocodile is not a weak Spirit Beast. What on earth happened in that place for it to be driven away?

The furious Raging Wave Crocodile couldn’t resist the Divine Beast Veronia at all. After being taught a lesson by Veronia, it had to honestly recount to her everything that happened after everyone left.

After listening to its story, Veronia looked at the Raging Wave Crocodile with a peculiar expression and said,

"You really are quite pitiful, but what exactly is your academy up to?"

"What?"

Feng Yuan looked at Veronia curiously, unsure of what she just heard. The academy is up to something again?

Glancing at Feng Yuan, Veronia lifted the restriction on the Raging Wave Crocodile and said,

"It’s nothing. That big guy was indeed driven away because that area wasn’t just attracting students. Even a few Legendary Level Spirit Beasts from the back mountain joined the fray~"

She couldn’t quite understand what Maomu Academy was planning. Legendary Level Spirit Beasts are difficult to deal with even for students about to graduate, let alone when they possess the Crystal Domain; otherwise, the Raging Wave Crocodile wouldn’t have been driven out.

It’s important to know that as a Spirit Beast that gradually moved from freshwater into the deep sea, the Raging Wave Crocodile has formidable combat strength. Unfortunately, facing a suppressive rank opponent, it can’t challenge across ranks.

However, upon hearing Veronia translate the Raging Wave Crocodile’s words, Wu Dingwu and his group felt somewhat alarmed. What is the academy up to, letting Legendary Level Spirit Beasts in? Could they really escape from a Legendary Level Spirit Beast?

Feng Yuan, however, didn’t feel anything about this. Legendary Level Spirit Beasts still pose no threat to Veronia.

Remembering something, Wu Dingwu looked at the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound beside Feng Yuan and curiously asked,

"By the way, is this Fluffy Fire Wolfhound a Spirit Beast let loose by the academy? Can it be..."

"Well... it was brought here by the principal. I’m not sure if it can form a Taming Beast Contract with us, but the academy should offer some benefits this time, right? After all, things got quite chaotic."

Understanding Wu Dingwu’s meaning, Feng Yuan replied uncertainly, as he hadn’t asked the class teacher about any hidden benefits in this training session at the back mountain.

After saying goodbye to Wu Dingwu and his group, Feng Yuan and his group proceeded in the direction Wu Dingwu and the others came from. With Veronia’s permission, the Raging Wave Crocodile left early, not wanting to be reprimanded by Veronia again.

The Fluffy Fire Wolfhound snuggled against Feng Yuan and happily wagged its tail, having realized it at least had a strong backer with Feng Yuan. It didn’t want to be bullied by the Spirit Beasts of the back mountain again.

Startled by the wolfhound’s actions, Feng Yuan glanced at Xiao Ji. Seeing Xiao Ji without any unusual reactions, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. He gently patted the wolfhound’s head, considering keeping it. After all, the wolfhound was qualified as a mount, and regardless of its evolutionary stage, its fluffy fur always felt nice to the touch.

However, Feng Yuan didn’t immediately voice his thoughts. He wasn’t too sure about the wolfhound’s situation, especially since it was placed in the back mountain by the principal, leaving unclear what the principal had in mind.

As Feng Yuan pondered, his phone rang. After answering the call, he looked at the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound with a curious expression and said,

"So that’s how it is... Do you want to return to your previous pack?"

"What?"

Veronia looked curiously at Feng Yuan. Why would he ask that all of a sudden? After a gentle pat on the wolfhound, Feng Yuan said with a laugh,

"This little guy was found by the principal in Cha Mu Town. Or rather, it probably got separated from its pack and somehow ended up there."

Although the academy principal might not have asked the wolfhound, looking at its condition, it probably didn’t understand what happened. But Feng Yuan speculated that it must have gotten separated during the Spirit Beast migration.

Even the Cha Mu Town area isn’t a great place for the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound.

Even though, due to Yognot, the fire energy in Cha Mu Town is relatively dense, it doesn’t mean the environment is suitable for the wolfhound since the area’s rainfall isn’t less than in Maomu City.

The principal picking up the wolfhound in Cha Mu Town indicates it was likely separated from its pack during migration. Otherwise, there would be no reason for it to stay if it wandered there on its own.

Normally, Spirit Beasts don’t linger in unsuitable environments without a specific reason, and Fluffy Fire Wolfhounds dislike areas with frequent rainfall.

Upon hearing Feng Yuan’s inquiry, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound pawed the ground without responding, as if it hadn’t heard. Seeing this, Veronia remarked,

"It seems like it doesn’t want to return to its pack."

"Hmm, if that’s the case, would you like to come with me?"

Through the phone, Feng Yuan learned that the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound was temporarily kept in the back mountain by the principal since there was no suitable habitat around Maomu City.

Maomu City, located in Southern Xia, experiences heavy rainfall in summer, which isn’t ideal for Fluffy Fire Wolfhounds. The principal intended to take it to a place like the desert when opportunity allowed.

Feng Yuan had some suspicion that the principal intentionally left it for a period, hoping a student would choose it.

Even credits are awarded for it, making Feng Yuan think it wasn’t just a simple temporary arrangement. Yet, due to the wolfhound’s unique situation, the credit requirements weren’t high.

For Feng Yuan, reduced credit demand wasn’t a constraint. Spending less was fine, considering even a simple task required helping the Special Duty Team.

Upon hearing Feng Yuan’s proposal, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound’s eyes lit up, and it rushed toward him. Despite its seemingly modest height when standing on four limbs, reaching Feng Yuan’s waist, the unexpected movement almost knocked Feng Yuan over.

Gently pushing the wolfhound’s head aside, Feng Yuan said with a smirk,

"Alright, but let me remind you of one thing: I’ll mainly be staying in Maomu City for a while. How should I put it? I’m a resident of Maomu City, so you might find the rainy season uncomfortable."

"If you want to return to the desert, I can help, even find your pack."

This can be solved with Agunas’ help. With his knowledge of Agunas, there’s no way it wouldn’t assist when a lost Spirit Beast appears in front of it.

Moreover, it’s not a hassle for Agunas. Accessing historical records would reveal its origin.

After listening to Feng Yuan, the Fluffy Fire Wolfhound shook its head like an Erha, wanting to rush toward him again, prompting Feng Yuan to laugh,

"Do you want to live with me? Alright, let’s go then~"

Petting the wolfhound’s head, Feng Yuan felt pleased. Unlike Xiao Ji’s feathers, the wolfhound’s fluffy fur indeed felt wonderful.

As for why the wolfhound was willing to stay with him, Feng Yuan couldn’t fully grasp. But following a human, allowing shelter during rainy days, limited the impact after all.

While the wolfhound could seek shelter in a cave outdoors, considering the possibility of certain territorial Spirit Beasts, and how wolfhounds love activity and sunbathing, caves aren’t ideal for them.

Observing the wolfhound, Qi Chen considered asking Feng Yuan about the Taming Beast Contract but decided against it upon seeing the wolfhound’s happiness, holding off for the time being.

Judging by the wolfhound’s current situation, Feng Yuan seemed inclined to make it his second Tamed Beast. As for why the contract wasn’t discussed, Qi Chen speculated it was due to an unfamiliarity, as not even Xiao Ji underwent regular training. Feng Yuan might think that following him isn’t necessarily beneficial for the wolfhound.
