Qin Xiao shook his head. No, no, my darlings, how could I bear to hit them?

With such delicate skin, a single blow can leave it bruised and purple.

He patted Bai Ling's head and said, "Ling'er, you should focus more on your cultivation. You're at the bottom right now."

Bai Ling curled her lip. "You stinky master, stop pretending. Ling'er knows you well enough to know what you're thinking the moment you look at me."

Hmph, man, I can't handle you anymore.

Bai Ling got up and went into the kitchen, where they were discussing something. Occasionally, exclamations and Slovic's excited agreement could be heard.

Qin Xiao's eyes twitched, but he didn't stop him and chose to acquiesce.

Dinner was ready soon. Ilya knocked on the door three times before Yunyun came downstairs, blushing.

Qin Xiao sat down at the dining table. "Oh, Mayor Fu, aren't you eating?"

Yunyun stammered, "She...she said she was tired, didn't feel well, and didn't want to eat."

Qin Xiao nodded without saying much. Yun Yun sat down. She didn't need to eat anything, but she felt the atmosphere was a bit strange and didn't know what to say.

We should talk to the owner about this; it would be troublesome if the owner got upset.

Yun Yun pondered for a moment, just about to speak.

Qin Xiao anticipated this and said, "I know what you want to say, but you don't need to say it. If you don't mind, I won't say anything more."

Mayor Fu... well, being in a high position for so long inevitably leads to some pent-up emotions. It would be good if you could help her relieve them.

Yun Yun's eyes widened. "Master...you know?"

Qin Xiao nodded, and Yun Yun became anxious when she saw Qin Xiao's indifferent expression.

"Master, I didn't, I didn't do anything, I just... beat her up."

Qin Xiao put down his chopsticks and held Yun Yun's hand. "I know, don't I trust you? You've given me your whole self."

Yun Yun breathed a sigh of relief, and her face gradually returned to calm.

"Master, Mayor Fu shouldn't cause us any trouble this time."

"Well, it doesn't matter whether she causes trouble or not. If you're unhappy, just ignore her. I can handle this little bit of trouble."

Yun Yun looked a little embarrassed, "I...it feels pretty good to hit someone..."

Qin Xiao froze as he grasped her hand. Holy crap, could this girl have awakened some kind of bizarre fetish?

Qin Xiao looked wary...

"Oh, well... whatever makes you happy..."

Qin Xiao was at a loss for words, but Slovic curiously came over and whispered something to Yun Yun.

Yunyun blushed as she listened, nodding and shaking her head from time to time.

Qin Xiao couldn't stay any longer, so he quickly finished his meal and slipped away, heading straight to the third-floor balcony to look at the stars.

A group of filthy women.

The next day, Qin Xiao got up early in the morning, and everyone had already packed up their things.

All the furniture and household items were returned to Slovich's demon realm room.

Standing on the platform at the edge of the cliff, Qin Xiao looked at the rising sun in the distance.

"Mayor Fu, as you know, I do have a cloud beast that I want to capture, and it may take some time. I would appreciate it if you could be lenient and give me some more time after you leave."

Qin Xiao said to Fu Yunyan.

Fu Yunyan glanced at him, then remained silent for a moment.

"Giving you some more time is not impossible, but I have to stay with you to prevent you from doing anything that could affect the secret realm."

These words were spoken with righteous indignation, and Qin Xiao couldn't find any fault with them.

But you weren't like this just a couple of days ago!

Qin Xiao was helpless; he was not unaware of the other party's intentions.

"Whatever you want, as long as you don't bother me."

Without saying much, Qin Xiao made Youyou grow bigger, and the group climbed onto Youyou's back.

To avoid embarrassing Fu Yunyan, none of the tamed beasts returned to the demon realm space, and they chattered away.

Qin Xiao held Ye Qingya in his arms, took out the pendant, and began to sense it.

Yun Yue was not lying. When the new student immersed himself in the spiritual energy, he did experience some vague sensations.

Besides the dozens of offspring, there was another vague sensation in the northwest direction.

"Hey, that direction, let's go, fast!"

With a long cry of "Yo~", it flew rapidly, thousands of meters above the ground, as if a celestial being had descended to earth.

In the afternoon, at Yezhou Wind Chime City.

Qin Xiao led his group to search the city for a while, but found nothing.

That sense of enlightenment vanished completely.

Qin Xiao walked down the street with a frown.

"Sister Qingya, this cloud beast seems to be quite intelligent."

Ye Qingya looked at the strange and unusual things on the street, and was in a very good mood.

"If Yunyue is right, this is an extremely powerful cloud beast, and it's the kind that's naturally raised."

"To have survived this long, you must have some skills. If you were caught so easily, you should be dead already."

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiao realized that what he said made sense.

Regaining his composure, Qin Xiao took out the jade pendant and began to sense it again.

Strangely, this time the location sensed was far to the south, forming a straight horizontal line.

"This cloud beast is quite fast; it's run down below us again."

Qin Xiao complained that after everyone had dinner in Fengling City, Qin Xiao decided that there was no need to set up camp. He asked Youyou to make another trip.

Soon, under the cover of night, Youyou set sail again, heading south.

His time is now a bit tight; seven days have already passed since he started waiting for the deal to be finalized, and now he only has five days left.

If we can't find it within five days, we'll have to try again later.

After all, the World Youth Championship is about to start, and we need to leave two days of buffer time to get to the competition venue and go through these procedures.

Three days passed quickly.

Over three days, Qin Xiao and his party almost circled the entire territory of the Yuntian Dynasty.

It's only because Youyou is a divine beast that it's still around. If it were any other ordinary beast, it would have been exhausted long ago.

Even so, Youyou was still a little tired.

With no other option, Qin Xiao had to set up camp and rest first, and he also communicated with Jingjing, who would take over the rest of the work.

Although it can't match Yoyo's speed, it's not too slow at its normal speed.

In the makeshift camproom, everyone gathered around the campfire to eat roasted meat.

Since it's a temporary campsite, there's no need to make it very comfortable; I'm too lazy to set it up.

Qin Xiao ate a lamb leg while fiddling with his earrings.

Suddenly, the location inside changed again.

"Damn it, this thing is moving again," Qin Xiao said irritably.

Ye Qingya looked at him in confusion, "It moved again? So fast?"

Qin Xiao nodded, somewhat speechless.

At this moment, Ilya put down the plate of roasted meat in her hand. "Master, this cloud beast should have the ability to detect things from the opposite direction. It will be difficult for us to catch it by searching like this."

Qin Xiao was also aware of this. Over the past few days, he had discovered that the cloud beast moved quite quickly.

Just then, Slovic pouted.

"Master, I feel like there's something wrong with the cloud beast's positioning. It's obviously playing us for a fool."

Qin Xiao frowned, a flash of inspiration crossing his mind...

"Honey, what did you just say?"

Slovic paused for a moment, then said, "I said... there's something wrong with this positioning; they're playing us..."

Qin Xiao narrowed his eyes, a guess forming in his mind.
