Lord of Pets - Chapter 111
Chapter 111: The Little Flame Sparrow and Zhu Qin
The last step of the heavenly stone path was connected to the peak of the mountain.
When one stepped on it, it meant that they had reached the peak!
Fresh blood dripped down from the gray-white peak of the first peak, splashing blood everywhere.
The Demon Ape swayed, its chest heaving up and down violently.
However, it still worked hard to straighten its back bit by bit.
It wanted to look down on everything around it in its fullest state!
“I overcame the mountain peak!”
Ah Zhou roared and laughed loudly.
The originally stable cloud barrier suddenly turned into a mist dragon and soared into the sky.
A gorgeous rainbow streaked across the sky that was as clean as a piece of white paper.
Following that was the inexplicable sound of ceremonial music. Sometimes it sounded like a battle drum hitting the sky, and sometimes it sounded like a bamboo blowing tune. Finally, it turned into a melodious bell sound and floated the entire mountain range.
“Roar! Eee! Crack!”…
The same scene played out, between the mountains, the roar of beasts in succession, as if to congratulate the birth of a new king.
Of these, the most cheerful, of course, was the little rabbit, Milky Way.
“Jig-jig-jig-jig!”
It sat on top of the big guy’s head, its two ears swaying left and right, moving its little butt along to the beat. It was clearly in a good mood.
It succeeded!
The scenery on the mountain was so beautiful!
It was thrilled today!
“Phew…”
Bai Wushang’s heart, which had jumped to his throat, slowly calmed down.
Immediately after, boundless pride rose from the bottom of his heart.
“I’ve reached the peak!”
From his perception, although Ah Zhou’s current aura was dispirited, the remaining essence, energy, and spirit had already condensed to a new height.
These few hours of climbing meant a lot to him. It was probably no less than half a month of hard work.
Listening to the lingering bell sound, Bai Wushang gradually calmed down and thought, “It seems that my guess is right. This bell sound was indeed triggered when I reached the top. The previous time, it must have been Zhu Qin’s little flame sparrow…
“Then, where is she now? Is she continuing to climb the second peak, or has she returned to the camp in an area that I can’t see?”
Looking around, the peak was still gray and white. It was empty, and there was no life at all.
In a trance, Bai Wushang thought of another question, “According to the seniors, climbing the stone path is a ‘gift’ that can accelerate the growth of pet beasts. Then, will there be more benefits for me if I ascend the peak now?”
Such thoughts did not stay in his mind for long.
A wave of light suddenly swept across the Demon Ape and the little rabbit, along with Bai Wushang and the floating rock monster behind him, and disappeared together.
…
To Bai Wushang, it happened only in the span he blinked.
When he opened his eyes again, the surrounding environment had completely changed.
This place seemed to be a sealed stone cave, constructed from light gray to dull black colors.
There were night pearls embedded above, enshrouding him in gentle light.
“Sizzle, sizzle…”
From the corner of his eye, a dense red light flashed.
Bai Wushang turned his head to look, and his face immediately revealed a shocked expression.
Behind him, a fiery red bird spread its wings and floated quietly in the air.
Its wingspan was about one meter, about the same size as a medium-sized parrot. Its feathers did not have a hint of mixed colors, and they were of a pure dark red, like a burning bird-shaped flame. It was beautiful and moving.
It had a pale golden beak that was short and strong. It was conical, and the edges of its beak were very smooth
Its nostrils were at the base of its upper beak, covered by a layer of translucent film.
Its claws were long and thin, with brown-red stripes, and the tip was emitting a cold light.
In its pupils, the attribute panel was very luxurious —

“So this is what little flame sparrow looks like, I’ve learned a lot…”
“It’s actually evolving, and it’s about to mature? What a rapid growth rate! Wait, what’s its status of absorbing gifts?”
Bai Wushang speculated to himself, and then he stared at the top of the Fire Bird’s head, where a gray-white stone was spinning.
The stone was definitely not an ordinary object, and its aura was very strange. Just by looking at it with one’s eyes, it gave off an extremely ancient feeling, and no one knew how many years it had existed.
Threads of mottled light scattered from the stone and gradually fused into little flame sparrow’s body.
“Since the Little Flame Sparrow has appeared here, then Zhu Qin…”
Bai Wushang quickly scanned his surroundings and immediately locked his gaze onto a figure.
She was in a snow white top and a crimson battle skirt. The front of the clothes, cuffs, and hem of the dress were all embroidered with golden threads. Her temperament was gorgeous and noble, yet it also gave off a cold aura that prevented strangers from approaching.
She sat cross-legged on the floating rock monster with her eyes tightly shut. Her delicate oval face was facing Bai Wushang. Her fair and flawless skin was suffused with a faint pink, and her thin lips were as delicate and alluring as cherry blossoms.
Her exposed calves, which were perfectly slender, coupled with her long dark red wavy hair that hung down naturally, she was a sight to behold.
“Swish…”
As if sensing the strange change, Zhu Qin’s eyelashes trembled slightly as she suddenly opened her eyes.
It was a pair of striking almond eyes. The color of her pupils was originally pitch-black, but in an instant, two wisps of scarlet flames appeared.
Bai Wushang had suffered a loss before, and he was unwilling to draw fire on himself for no reason. He preemptively said, “Fellow student Zhu Qin! I have no ill intentions!”
This sentence clearly had an effect.
The red-haired girl’s breathing stopped, and the flames in her pupils slowly extinguished, returning to normal.
She used a very faint gaze to sweep across Bai Wushang’s face, and then looked at the big black ape beside him.
Finally, her gaze moved down, and when it landed on the snow-white rabbit, her brows lightly trembled, revealing a strange expression.
“Did you reach the peak?”
This was the first time Bai Wushang had heard Zhu Qin’s voice.
Every word was very sweet.
However, when they were connected, it was as if they were squeezed out by the friction of metal. It gave off a cold and stiff feeling, without the slightest fluctuation of emotions.
However, now was not the time to probe into such a problem. Bai Wushang nodded and responded.
“Two of them?” Zhu Qin asked again.
Hearing this, Bai Wushang subconsciously glanced at the little rabbit.
At this moment, it was looking up at the fiery red bird with its head raised.
Its big silver eyes were full of surprise and envy.
Bai Wushang’s heart was racing, and he did not know how to explain the little fellow’s situation.
He could say that it had climbed, but it did not feel anything, nor did it gain any growth.
If he said that it had not climbed, that was not true either. It had relied on its ability to hitch on a free ride and passed all the obstacles along the way to reach the peak, so why shouldn’t it count?
Thinking of this, Bai Wushang slowly let out a breath and nodded again.
