“This is all thanks to Chasing Wind.” Xu Ran lifted up Ziyun, glancing at Chasing Wind, who was always holding its head high with an air of vigour after the race ended.
“Whinny-”
Chasing Wind lowered its head, showing some signs of intimacy, and nudged Xu Ran’s shoulder as if hinting at something.
“Chasing Wind is inviting you to ride on its back.” Xu Kun translated Chasing Wind’s intentions.
“Really?” Remembering the speed of Chasing Wind just now, Xu Ran’s eyes lit up.
“Whinny-”
Chasing Wind let its head fall even further, clearly expressing its intentions.
“Well then I will give it a try!” Holding Ziyun with one hand, Xu Ran used the other to support himself on Chasing Wind’s waist, pushing himself off the ground with a leap.
Ziyun’s nourishment has endowed him with impressive strength, allowing him to easily mount even a high creature like Chasing Wind.
After getting on the horse, Xu Ran patted Chasing Wind’s neck, “Let’s go!”
“Meow!” (Let’s charge!)
Ziyun raised a paw and pointed forward, zealously giving orders like a commander.
Chasing Wind let out a neigh and started to run at full speed with Xu Ran.
Xu Kun let out a hearty laugh, a Hexagram Star Array flashing behind him, summoning another horse-type pet beast. He mounted it and followed closely behind Chasing Wind.
Xu Kun’s other horse beast was slightly less powerful than Chasing Wind, but still extremely fast. As long as Chasing Wind didn’t use the Pulse of Wind to reach its limit speed, it could keep up with Chasing Wind’s pace.
The two horses galloping away attracted many people’s attention. Riding on Chasing Wind’s back, Xu Ran felt an unexpected joy at the moment.
A thin layer of green light film enveloped him and Ziyun, also riding on Chasing Wind’s back, shielding them from the wind blowing in their faces at high speed.
Two Star Skills, Starlight Level – Wind Stabilization.
Even when enjoying its run, it didn’t forget to care for its passengers.
Chasing Wind is really… I’m going to cry!
“Boss Xu, how does it feel?” Xu Kun, riding alongside Xu Ran, asked with a smile.
“Absolutely fantastic!”
Xu Ran nodded vigorously, his face full of joy as if he had gained a new toy.
In his previous life, he had never ridden a horse. Now in this life, not only does he get to ride one, but it’s an outstanding horse-type pet beast!
Satisfying!
“But…” Xu Ran looked around and a look of confusion crossed his face, “Where are we heading?”
“Let me see…” As Xu Kun looked forward, he was slightly startled, “Chasing Wind has subconsciously headed towards my Mount Beast Breeding Base.”
“The base is still a little over a kilometer away. How about a visit to my base, Boss Xu?” Xu Kun invited with a smile.
“Sounds good.” Xu Ran nodded.
He had already prepared food for the pet beasts in fosterage in his shop, and The System had about ten hours left until its next upgrade.
You know what they say, since we’re here anyway.
And after watching the horse race, he indeed had a newfound interest in horse-type pet beasts.
As the two were casually chatting, two robust horses ran on the ground, and soon, a large base surrounded by tall fences appeared before them.
“This is my Mount Beast Breeding Base.” Xu Kun let out a hearty laugh, “Boss Xu, let’s go! Let’s get right into it.”
He patted his horse, the beast understood and suddenly picked up speed.
The gates of the breeding base sensed Xu Kun’s approach from a distance and opened automatically, revealing a glimpse of horse beasts freely wandering inside.
Chasing Wind, underneath Xu Ran, picked up speed at the same time, and as it passed through the gate, it suddenly let out a neigh.
“Whinny-”
The long and resonating neighs echoed in all directions. Within a moment, horse beasts started appearing from all around.
Some had wings growing on their backs, some had a single horn on top of their head. They all had different shapes and attributes, but they coexisted harmoniously.
They were originally freely resting and running in this vast horse farm. Now, they were responding to Chasing Wind’s call, and they followed behind Xu Ran and Xu Kun, forming a long row of horses.
The horse beasts collectively neighed, and those who were originally idle now sped up their pace, trying to catch up with Chasing Wind, and compete with each other.
An unusual race had begun.
“Uncle Xu, what is happening?” the surprised Xu Ran turned to ask Xu Kun who was riding beside him.
“This is a special event at our horse farm!” Xu Kun laughed, “Chasing Wind is remarkably persistent in speed. It is a born runner. This persistence has influenced the other horses in the farm.”
“Therefore, we have such competitions frequently. Over time, it has become a tradition.”
“The neigh of Chasing Wind just now was to inform others it had won the championship again, and the current run is the other horse beasts’ way of celebrating.”
“I see.” Xu Ran looked interested.
“Meow-”
Ziyun, who was lying in Xu Ran’s arms, suddenly moved. It seemed to be affected by the atmosphere around it and jumped down from Xu Ran’s arms.
It leaped from the tall back of Chasing Wind to the soft grassy ground. When it landed, it transformed itself into an electric arc at an astonishing speed, following Chasing Wind with excitement in its eyes.
“Ha ha, Little Xu, your pet beast is indeed fast!” Xu Kun was surprised when Ziyun caught up with Chasing Wind without much effort.
“Yes, Ziyun is indeed pretty fast,” Xu Ran waved at Ziyun, smiling, “But it’s better for short sprints and is not suited for long-distance running. In this regard, Chasing Wind is really amazing.”
Chasing Wind ran all the way from the racecourse here, carrying Xu Ran and Ziyun on its back, and doesn’t seem to be tired at all to this point. This stamina alone is astonishing.
“Little Xu, what you may not know is that this is not a unique talent of Chasing Wind, but a trait common to all horse beasts,” Xu Kun shook his head and laughed.
“The original transcendent beings were ordinary beings that have awakened.” “Because of this, their appearances mostly relate to ordinary creatures, and they also have some characteristics that they possessed when they were ordinary.”
“A vast majority of horse-type pet beasts have a one-star skill called ‘Tenacity’. This skill is passively activated, which gives them more endurance than other pet beasts.”
“I see.” Xu Ran nodded, feeling that he had learned something new.
In the course of their conversation, Ziyun, who had been energetically competing with Chasing Wind in a sprint, simply jumped back onto the back of Chasing Wind and went into Xu Ran’s arms, its face showing a hint of exhaustion.
After running at full speed for several minutes with Electric Pursue, it seemed a bit tired.
“You…” Xu Ran broke into a smile, patting Ziyun on the head.
“Meow-” (Look there!)
Ziyun rubbed its head against the palm of Xu Ran’s hand, then suddenly stretched out one of its claws and pointed it to the side.
“Hmm?” Xu Ran followed Ziyun’s guidance and looked to the side, soon spotting a small black little horse.
It was running hard in the same direction as Chasing Wind, but its speed was much slower.
By now, the horses in the Mount Beast Breeding Base had already run more than one round around the entire field. It seemed as if this little horse was already one round behind the main group.
This little horse’s running action was quite immature. Unlike the other little horses, it hadn’t used any skills during its run and looked quite strained.
Soon, it was once again overtaken by the main group and became a small black dot at ends of Xu Ran’s line of sight in the dust.
A few minutes later, the other horses had run three full laps around the horse farm with Chasing Wind and finally stopped. The spontaneous run to celebrate Chasing Wind’s victory had ended.
Xu Ran, who had just jumped down from Chasing Wind, saw the little horse again.
After being overtaken twice, it seemed to have only run one lap.
But unlike the calm and composed postures of the other horse beasts, the little horse was already soaked in sweat.
It returned to its original place with somewhat wobbly steps, eating the food piled beside it in small bites. Occasionally, it glanced at its companions, and there was human-like envy in its eyes.
“Ah! It’s that one!”
Following Xu Ran’s gaze and seeing the small black little horse, Xu Kun, who had just gotten off his horse, sighed, “This little guy, still as stubborn..”
