Divine Beast Creator

Chapter 1641 - 1642: The Visitor

After confirming that those students were indeed sent by Yufeng Academy, the members of the Yufeng Special Duty Team, after consulting with Agunas, simply made a record and let them go. There was no helping it, even though their reason was somewhat inadequate, it was still an assignment from a local academy. If Feng Yuan didn’t pursue the matter, they really didn’t want to impose any penalties either.

Scratching his head, Feng Yuan said with a bright smile,

"They are indeed overly sensitive~"

"I don’t think so. Didn’t someone specifically choose a hotel near Yufeng Academy just for it?"

Glancing at Feng Yuan, Veronia couldn’t help but expose his lie. Earlier, this guy was planning to find the Jingming Divine Monkey, and now he wants to pretend it’s unrelated to him?

"Hehe... that..."

"You..."

Hearing Veronia’s words, those few members of the Special Duty Team looked at Feng Yuan in astonishment. They didn’t expect Feng Yuan actually intended to steal the Divine Beast of Yufeng City. Seeing their vigilant expressions, Feng Yuan rolled his eyes and said irritably,

"I just want to communicate with it. As for other intentions? It’s not like I haven’t seen the Yimu Qingling in Shenhua City, and it was no big deal."

"Really?"

Swishing its tail, Agunas felt that Feng Yuan seemed to be talking nonsense. It had no memory of such a thing, but it seemed the Jingming Divine Monkey and the Yimu Qingling were quite similar; both guarding a city. Perhaps, Feng Yuan might really not be able to take it away.

Although somewhat concerned, Feng Yuan’s actions didn’t break any rules, and those team members couldn’t find a reason to stop him. Finally, they had to leave helplessly. Until Feng Yuan completed his check-in, Qi Chen couldn’t help but ask,

"Do you really want to find the Jingming Divine Monkey?"

"Let’s see, I just want to have a good chat with it. As for anything else, I have no intentions otherwise. It probably won’t come with me, so your worries are unnecessary."

Sweeping a glance at Qi Chen, Feng Yuan placed his hands behind his head and said nonchalantly. It didn’t surprise him at all that Qi Chen would ask, given that he already had quite a few Divine Beasts around him. If the Jingming Divine Monkey joined, it would certainly be troublesome. However, he personally didn’t think the Jingming Divine Monkey would follow him.

Whether it was Agunas or Veronia, they were relatively special beings. Even though Agunas wasn’t very engaged with beings of the current world, it still left an avatar here while who knows what the main body was busy with.

As for Veronia, it was even more special. Compared to Agunas, Veronia was more like guarding a lonely memory of living. Until it found new friends at the Maomu Academy, it seemed to be slightly better.

In comparison to them, Feng Yuan didn’t think that a Divine Beast like the Jingming Divine Monkey, which had been residing at Yufeng Academy for a long time, wouldn’t have its network of relationships. It might even be good friends with the head of Yufeng Academy. For Divine Beasts, apart from their usual lair, their stay was often related to whether they had friends in that place.

The environment wasn’t such a big influence on them. Feng Yuan believed that the Jingming Divine Monkey surely had the ability to improve its environment. Moreover, if he remembered correctly, Martial Dao Cultivation included aspects of cultivating the mind.

Veronia twirled her parasol and said,

"How about I go to it first to see if it’s interested in meeting you?"

"That sounds like a good idea, so I’ll leave it to you~"

With a slight smile, Veronia turned and walked out of the somewhat rundown hotel with her parasol open. Agunas frowned and followed, asking,

"Can’t you just ask about it on the Divine Beast Information Network? Why bother making a trip personally? Are you planning something?"

"Little Crocodile, if I suddenly mention on the Divine Beast Information Network that someone wants to see you, wouldn’t you feel uncomfortable?"

"Hmm... no."

Swishing its tail, Agunas thought seriously and replied. Seeing this, Veronia didn’t bother to explain further. The perspectives were different, and there was nothing more to say.

In the stone chamber, the Jingming Divine Monkey slowly opened its eyes. Shortly after, dressed in white martial robes, it stood up from its meditative position. Although Veronia hadn’t notified it, its intuitive senses told it that a guest was coming.

If one ignored the golden monkey fur, the human-sized Jingming Divine Monkey seemed not much different from a human. Moreover, it had long been accustomed to using human tools, so much so that sometimes, it even regarded itself as human. Walking out of the stone chamber, the glaring sunlight didn’t have much effect on it.

Even though it made no preparations, the divine beast’s robust physique allowed it to seamlessly transition from the dimly lit chamber to the blinding sunlight without much delay.

"I didn’t expect to meet you as you were coming out."

Veronia said with surprise, looking at the Jingming Divine Monkey before her. It was her first time seeing such a human-like divine beast. Yet, the Jingming Divine Monkey didn’t mind; its white martial robe fluttered in the wind as it quietly gazed at Veronia. After a moment, it slowly spoke,

"Are you the visitor?"

Of course, it could recognize that the blonde woman in the dress before it was the human form of a divine beast. After all, divine beasts naturally possessed a sense of each other’s presence. Twirling her parasol, Veronia said,

"Not exactly. Actually, I came here just to..."

"A Martial Dao Divine Beast? That’s impressive. I didn’t expect there to be a Martial Dao Divine Beast in Yufeng City."

In human form, Long Boduo spoke with surprise upon learning the divine beast Feng Yuan intended to meet. It had indeed encountered Martial Dao Divine Beasts before and even sparred with them. Unfortunately, it was no match for the Martial Dao Divine Beasts.

Looking at Long Boduo, who suddenly came looking for him for fun, Feng Yuan swept his gaze over Qi Chen, who was whistling and looking elsewhere and said,

"That’s not surprising, but don’t you know?"

"I don’t. I rarely come to the real world; I quite enjoyed staying in the Netherworld before, but this time..."

Scratching its head, Long Boduo said with a guilty smile. If it hadn’t previously gone to play with Feng Yuan, it wouldn’t have discovered so many fascinating things in the real world. Now, a lot of ghost-type divine beasts from the Netherworld under its lead have started appearing in the real world. Fortunately, they mostly seek assistance from the Alliance or Divine Beast Hall first in human form, or else those tourist spots would’ve been terrified.

After all, they are ghost-type divine beasts and inherently tend to invoke human fear, even if they do nothing.

Just like how beastmasters who use ghost-type spirit beasts are pretty rare, they almost never choose Divine Pact Makers. Even knowing they are divine beasts, those beastmasters would still have a touch of unease.

This time, it just finished patrolling and came to find Feng Yuan for fun, and upon learning there is a Martial Dao Divine Beast here, Long Boduo got interested, even hinting for Feng Yuan to have a match with it.

"Have you ever fought a Martial Dao Divine Beast?"

Agunas obviously noticed something was off about Long Boduo. It was simply too enthusiastic, clearly expecting Feng Yuan and the Jingming Divine Monkey to have a showdown. However, it isn’t possible that it didn’t know Feng Yuan’s situation; even if the Jingming Divine Monkey was strong, it too would only end up being easily beaten by Feng Yuan.

This malicious suggestion could only mean that Long Boduo might have been once roughed up by a Martial Dao Divine Beast, but... it didn’t quite understand, what connection did the Martial Dao Divine Beasts have with it anyway?

"Well... it can’t be considered a fight, but once a Martial Dao Divine Beast barged into our Netherworld to seize souls. Although eventually, we cooperated to drive it back..."

Scratching its head, Long Boduo confessed with a guilty heart. It indeed wanted to use Feng Yuan’s hand to teach a lesson to the Martial Dao Divine Beasts. As for whether the Jingming Divine Monkey was the one that intruded into the Netherworld back then? That it wasn’t sure of, because before this, the ghost-type divine beasts in the Netherworld didn’t have much interaction with the divine beasts of the real world; they mostly operated separately, especially since the Martial Dao Divine Beasts were also similar.

Those Martial Dao Divine Beasts mostly trained in solitude. Sometimes, even these divine beasts couldn’t tell which areas had Martial Dao Divine Beasts. After all, every one of those Martial Dao Divine Beasts had the ability to cross seas, making the Starlit Sea not much of an obstacle for them. And for the sake of training, traveling around and leaving their current area was not surprising.

"It seems Veronia has already arranged it, we can head over now."

Swishing its tail, Agunas said to Feng Yuan. The latter laughed sneakily, inviting Long Boduo and Qi Chen to come along and see one of the legendary Martial Dao Divine Beasts, the Jingming Divine Monkey.
