Beast Taming Chapter 72: Failed to Advance

Shi Yan looked at the little monkey in astonishment. He found that he seemed to have lost his language function and could not speak.

Is this a dream?

It was not until Bai Yu'er emerged from the formation on the little monkey's forehead and returned to Shi Yan's heart that he woke up, "So this wasn't a dream!"

In the sea of ​​​​heart, there was another thought, which trembled when touched, as if there was a blood connection. Shi Yan carefully touched that thought, and it was definitely the little monkey's! He could feel the joy emanating from that thought.

Shi Yan smiled bitterly. Why bother? He had never thought of making a contract with the little monkey, but the little monkey actually took the initiative to make a contract. What was going on?

Is this another trick played by God?

He rolled his eyes at the sky in hatred and said, "Fuck it!"

However, I do feel a little satisfied in my heart. My charm is infinite, and all the spiritual beasts will come to me automatically.

The night fell, the stars retreated, and the gentle morning sun shone on him. He woke up from his sleep, looked at the little monkey lying in his arms, and smiled happily. He still thought that what happened last night was a dream, but the thought in his heart made him know that everything last night was real, not a dream.

On this day, Xiaoli and Zier were still asleep, lying on the bed and snoring with rosy faces, looking very cute.

Mingxiang glanced at Shi Yan helplessly, "It seems that we have to stay for another day."

She looked at Shi Yan strangely and asked puzzledly: "I saw you also made monkey wine, why didn't you pour it?"

Shi Yan smiled and said, "Me? Neither I nor the immortal wine can fall. When I was a child, I tasted the immortal wine that had been treasured for thousands of years. It had turned into paste. The smell of the wine would make a lot of people drunk, but I tasted it and nothing happened to me."

Mingxiang glanced at Shi Yan speechlessly, "You are such a monster."

On this day, Shi Yan walked around Monkey Mountain and picked up the flying swords scattered by Zhong Ming. There were seven flying swords in total, all of which were of second-grade quality and could be combined into a set of swords.

The little monkey followed him all the time, showing him the way. At the end of the day, he didn't feel tired at all. Instead, he became happier and more energetic.

In the early morning of the third day, Xiaoli and Zier finally woke up from their sleep, rubbed their hazy eyes, stretched and got up.

"Ah, what a comfortable sleep!" Xiao Li moaned comfortably. Seeing that Shi Yan and Ming Xiang were still sleeping soundly, he muttered, "Humph, two lazy bastards, still sleeping!"

Shi Yan happened to be awakened by the noise they made. Hearing her words, he couldn't help but laugh, "Who is the lazy bug? You have been sleeping for three days. These three days really exhausted us!"

Xiao Li and Zi Er were stunned. Their memories still stayed on the night three days ago. They were so happy that they drank several times the amount of Monkey Brew, and then they passed out. They didn't know anything after that. When they woke up today, they had slept for three days, which made them feel unreal.

Seeing their puzzled expressions, Shi Yan smiled and said, "You don't believe it? Then you can ask Mingxiang."

Mingxiang was also awakened by their talking, and Xiaoli ran over to confirm it.

Mingxiang looked at the two of them with amusement, "What Shiyan said is true, you slept for three days!"

Xiao Li and Zi'er blushed and didn't dare to look at them.

“What a shame…”

They both woke up, but Ye Yier was still unconscious. In the crystal body, the mist was all around her, and the rich spiritual power was nourishing her body. She was fine, no different from ordinary people, everything was normal. But she just wouldn't wake up, as if she didn't want to wake up from her sleep. Legend has it that when a person is asleep, his soul will wander outside, and will only return to the body when he wakes up in the daytime. So is her soul playing outside and hasn't come back yet?

"When her soul comes back, I must teach her a lesson!" Shi Yan thought.

In general, apart from Ye Yier's accident, this operation in the Hundred Trees Forest was still very rewarding.

Zi'er and Xiao Li caught the spirit beasts that suited them; Shi Yan also contracted a little monkey and got seven second-grade flying swords; although Ming Xiang did not find the spirit beast that suited her, after this experience, her cultivation had undergone a qualitative change. Although she was still at the first level of foundation building, her cultivation was more solid than that of ordinary people at the first level of foundation building.

The little monkey followed them back to Huajian Sect. They didn't know that the little monkey Xiaokong had signed a contract with Shi Yan. Shi Yan didn't say anything, but just explained that it followed them voluntarily. Although Mingxiang and the others felt strange, they could accept it.

It was not Shi Yan's fault for not telling the truth. After all, everyone in the Huajian Sect knew that he had not yet established his foundation. If someone who had not yet established his foundation had a spirit beast contracted by his natal spirit, it would be a big deal if it got out. This would not only bring him a lot of trouble, but also Mingxiang and the others.

"This must be a white lie!" Shi Yan thought.

Along the way, Shi Yan carried Ye Yier back to Dongleng Valley, put her in the bed, and wanted to go find Canglan.

Xiao Baoer looked at Ye Yier in confusion, "Slave, what happened to my wife?"

Shi Yan touched his head, feeling bitter in his heart, and without saying a word, he ran out in an unusual manner to find Canglan.

After running out of Dongleng Valley, Shi Yan stopped. He was so anxious that he forgot where to find Cang Lan. Usually Cang Lan came to find him, and he had never looked for him on his own!

In the end, he decided to go to Liusu Courtyard first. After all, that was where the head of the sect lived. As the founder of Huajian Sect, Canglan was most likely to stay there.

However, he was not here, and even the leader was not at home.

He came to Huajian Valley again, passed through the long tunnel, and came to the mysterious valley. Canglan said that this place was integrated with the secret realm of Huajian Sect. Apart from Liusu Courtyard, this is the best place to see Canglan. And the first time, Shi Yan met Canglan here. Although the first meeting was very unpleasant, Shi Yan was almost killed by Canglan, and Canglan also inexplicably became his contracted spirit beast. Everything was too dreamy.

"I hope he is here!" Shi Yan kept praying along the way. Perhaps the prayer worked. He saw Canglan by the lake.

"What!" After hearing what Shi Yan said, Cang Lan's face darkened and he grabbed Shi Yan by the collar. Shi Yan felt his feet go empty and the wind whistled in his ears. Then he realized that he was being held in the air by Cang Lan. Before he could get used to it, his feet touched the ground again. It turned out that he had arrived at Dongleng Valley!

Looking at the naked Ye Yier, Canglan's face turned pale, as if he would faint at any time.

He used his spiritual sense to investigate and his face looked heavy.

"How is it?" Shi Yan asked nervously.

Canglan shook his head, "There's nothing wrong with her body, it's just that she's missing something!"

"Something is missing?"

Canglan nodded, "Another very important thing!"

Shi Yan asked him what Ye Yier had lost, but Cang Lan shook his head and said nothing. He picked up Ye Yier by the waist and said, "Don't worry, I won't let anything happen to her!"

Before he finished speaking, a gust of wind blew by, and he disappeared from Shi Yan's sight and left Dongleng Valley.

Watching them leave, Shi Yan suddenly felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.

Xiao Baoer, who had just fallen asleep, rubbed his eyes, walked out with sleepy eyes, and said in a crying voice: "Slave, slave, where is my wife? My wife is gone!"

Shi Yan smiled bitterly, picked up Xiao Baoer, and comforted him softly: "Don't cry, Xiao Baoer, sister Yier suddenly had something urgent to do, and she is out now. She will be back in a few days."

Xiao Baoer pouted and looked at Shi Yan in disbelief, "You are lying, you must have hidden her in order to snatch my wife from me. Return my wife to me now, or I will not give you candy anymore!"

Shi Yan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. What was going on in this little brat's head?

"My dear little darling, I'm not lying. Sister Yi'er really has something to do. If you really don't believe me, you can go ask her in person when she comes back!"

"Humph," Xiao Baoer wrinkled his nose and puffed his cheeks, "If what Sister Yier said is different from what you said, don't even think about asking me for candy again!"

Shi Yan smiled bitterly. Come to think of it, Shi Yan really did ask Xiao Baoer for pills quite often. He blushed whenever he thought about it.

At this moment, he saw a figure out of the corner of his eyes. He put Xiao Bao'er down without saying a word and said, "Xiao Bao'er, go to sleep for a while. Time flies when you sleep. Maybe Yi'er will be back when you wake up!" He didn't know if he said this to Xiao Bao'er or to himself. Perhaps, he also longed for this in his heart.

When Xiao Baoer heard this, he ran back to his room and climbed onto the bed. He fell asleep soon, making a whirring sound and occasionally blowing bubbles from his nose.

As Shi Yan walked out the door, the figure immediately followed him.

"Mo Chou, where have you been these two days? I haven't seen you." Shi Yan asked calmly. To be honest, Shi Yan was still wary of Mo Chou, especially after knowing that he was a puppeteer, his wariness became even greater. He came to the stone by the lake and sat down.

Mo Chou followed behind Shi Yan silently, "I'm going to investigate the murderer who took Xiao Baoer away that day."

Shi Yan was stunned. Investigate the murderer?

"What did the investigation reveal?"

Mo Chou uttered four words indifferently: "Qingmeng Villa."

Hearing these four words, Shi Yan's eyes narrowed, "Qingmeng Villa?"

He suddenly remembered that the woman imprisoned in the Sun and Moon Yuanzhen Ding was none other than the second lady of Qingmeng Villa, You Qingmeng.

"You Qingmeng?" Shi Yan asked.

Mo Chou shook his head, "You Xiaoyao, You Haoran, and You Qingmeng!"

After hearing this, Shi Yan became even more confused. Did the three brothers and sisters of the You family come out? It was said that the relationship between the three brothers and sisters of the You family was not good, and it seemed that it was not groundless.

However, Shi Yan had no interest in the household affairs of Qingmeng Villa. What puzzled him was that all three siblings were out, and all for Xiao Baoer! This was worth pondering!

Shi Yan sat there thinking all night long. Behind him, Mo Chou also stood with him all night long without saying a word.

Just then, big news came from inside the door.

"Senior Sister Zixuan's spirit beast failed to advance!"
