Chapter 87: The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect Opens
This time, the two little raccoons did not run over to hug Zhou Yu’s legs. Instead, they rushed toward the courtyard. Luckily, Dabao and Xiaobao stood at the doorway and stopped them.
Zhou Yu grabbed them back, one in each hand. These two guys were probably attracted by the Wind Eagle Meat and did not want to leave.
No matter how the girl called their names, the two raccoons remained unmoved. They clung tightly to Zhou Yu’s pant legs and refused to let go.
The man in the white shirt discussed with the girl for a moment, then walked over with a helpless expression. “Buddy, you truly are the one who raised a Divine Dog. These two little ones came to your home and now don’t want to leave. How about this: we leave them here with you for now. You can take care of them, and we’ll pay some boarding fees. We can come pick them up another time.”
“Let me take care of them for now? That won’t do. No amount of boarding fee is acceptable.” Zhou Yu shook his head. Wind Eagle Meat was extremely precious. If he raised these two little guys into Spirit Beasts only for them to belong to someone else later, he wasn’t that foolish.
He thought for a moment and spoke again. “I’ll give you two options. One: take them away by force right now. Two: I buy them from you.”
The white-shirted man talked with the girl some more. Although the girl was very reluctant, she had to agree. “Let’s go with the second option. If we take these two raccoons back home, they’ll probably just run away again anyway. When we bought them, they were twenty thousand each. They are pet-grade raccoons with proper papers. The documents are in our car; we can give them to you. If we sell them to you now, it’ll be fifteen thousand each. We just hope you’ll treat them well.”
Zhou Yu was stunned for a second. These raccoons, which were everywhere abroad and even nicknamed the ‘city management demolition squad,’ actually cost twenty thousand each in Huaxia. That was simply outrageous.
“Fifteen thousand? Then you’d better take them back.” Zhou Yu shook his head. Although he had plenty of money, it didn’t grow on trees. Instead of spending ten or twenty thousand to raise a raccoon, he might as well go catch a weasel in the mountains. They looked quite similar anyway.
“Buddy, fifteen thousand is already very cheap. Since you want them, how about ten thousand each? Ten thousand.” The white-shirted man slowly walked closer to Zhou Yu, winked, and made a ‘five’ gesture with his hand below the other’s line of sight.
Five thousand each. Zhou Yu felt a bit puzzled. Judging by the man’s expression, he seemed very eager to sell these two raccoons to him. Zhou Yu glanced at the girl nearby and understood somewhat. Either these raccoons were difficult to raise, or the girl spent all her energy on raising them and neglected this man.
“Alright, ten thousand each it is.” Zhou Yu looked at the man and nodded.
“Haha, buddy, you’re a good sport. Let me give you my bank account number.” The man walked closer, patted Zhou Yu’s shoulder, and said in a low voice, “Thanks, buddy. Ever since my girlfriend started raising raccoons, her eyes are only on them. Now I can finally escape this misery. Just transfer ten thousand to my account.”
Zhou Yu found it quite amusing. He nodded and directly transferred ten thousand via mobile banking. Afterwards, he received the documents for the two raccoons.
“Hey, thanks, buddy. I’m Xu Peng.” After the transfer went through, Xu Peng, looking greatly relieved, extended his hand to Zhou Yu.
“No problem, just a small favor. I’m Zhou Yu. Alright, I need to head home. You can go now.” Zhou Yu shook his hand, then headed into the courtyard with Huzi, the three dogs, and the two raccoons.
“Polly, Betsy, you must be good!” The girl watched as the two raccoons moved farther away from her and called out reluctantly.
Zhou Yu smiled and shook his head, muttering to himself, “What kind of names are those? Do foreign animals always need foreign names?”
He walked into the courtyard and closed the main gate. Outside, Xu Peng comforted the girl for a while before getting into the car. “Xiaotian, aren’t you getting in? What are you looking at?”
“Brother Peng, I just saw what looked like a Golden Eagle standing on the roof of this house. It seemed very majestic.” The flashily dressed man looked at the roof with uncertainty.
“A Golden Eagle? There are no Golden Eagles around here. Probably just a big bird. You’re seeing things. Let’s go.” Xu Peng shook his head and called him into the car.
After returning to the courtyard, Zhou Yu placed the two raccoons on the ground. He sat on a stool and pointed at them, saying, “Now that you’re in my home, you need to understand the rules. If you dare dig holes randomly or rummage through things, Huzi will teach you a lesson.”
At that moment, Huzi very cooperatively let out a loud bark beside them. Dabao and Xiaobao also looked at them fiercely.
“And also, forget those foreign names others gave you. From now on, you are called Gangan, and you are called Cuicui.” Zhou Yu gave the two raccoons names that fit Huaxia’s aesthetic sense.
The two raccoons, whether they didn’t understand or just didn’t understand, stared at him with blank looks. Zhou Yu couldn’t help but burst out laughing. After all, they weren’t as understanding as dogs.
After lunch, Zhou Yu took Huzi, Dabao, and the two raccoons to the nearby sea to practice controlling the surfboard. As for Xiaobao, he stayed home to guard the house.
The two raccoons, Gangan and Cuicui, were like fish in water, swimming joyfully in the sea. Zhou Yu couldn’t help but sigh; they truly were the legendary swimming champions.
As time passed, night slowly fell. Zhou Yu returned to his room and looked at the radio on the table. He felt the chance of it activating today was also very small.
Close to midnight, he was awakened again by the sound of lightning. He looked out the window. The sky, calm before he slept, was now flashing with streaks of lightning.
Zhou Yu instantly shifted his gaze to the table. The old, worn-out radio was now emitting a pure white light.
Does it always activate when there’s thunder? His face wore a thoughtful expression as he picked up the radio.
The white light faded, and the radio returned to its ordinary appearance. Zhou Yu turned on the switch. The radio emitted the hopeful sound of static.
He slowly turned the tuning knob. He wondered if this lightning would open another sect’s map.
The radio’s frequency indicator gradually moved to the Immortal Sound Sect, where Fairy Suxin was. Besides the static, there was no reaction. Zhou Yu continued tuning downward. When he reached the Xuantian Sect, where Uncle-Master Wu was, there wasn’t any sound either.
This made a trace of surprise appear on his face. Could it really be opening another sect’s frequency? He continued tuning downward. Suddenly, the static disappeared, and a familiar voice came from within.
“Father, I brought Little Brother here.” A man’s voice came from the radio.
Zhou Yu recognized this voice immediately. It was the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect’s Senior Brother Zheng, whom he had encountered the first time he met Fairy Suxin. Could the activation this time be the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect?
Thinking of this, a mysterious smile appeared on his face. The Ten Thousand Beasts Sect was a good place. The Spirit Beast Pill and Wind Eagle Meat he had obtained before were all from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect.
During previous radio activations, he had also heard Uncle-Master Wu’s senior brother mention that the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect had something called a Divine Beast Pill. It contained the Essence Blood of ancient divine beasts. If an ordinary Spirit Beast took it, it could awaken its ancestral lineage inheritance.
He didn’t dare hope to obtain this Divine Beast Pill. If he could just get some more Spirit Beast Pills, or perhaps obtain a Spirit Beast egg, that would be satisfying enough.
“You two, step back for now.” Then, a somewhat authoritative voice came from the radio.
Not long after, a stern voice rang out. “Have you forgotten what I said before? If others are present, do not call me father. Do you not understand?”
“Yes, Father… no, Elder. I understand.” Senior Brother Zheng quickly replied, his voice carrying some fluster.
Hearing Senior Brother Zheng’s voice, Zhou Yu couldn’t help but smile. The Senior Brother Zheng who spoke eloquently before Fairy Suxin actually seemed a bit afraid when facing his own father.
It was said that Cultivators needed to abandon worldly attachments and desires. It seemed Senior Brother Zheng’s father was close to achieving that. But if that were the case, would what he cultivated still be an immortal? It would be almost the same as a stone.
“Father, we are your children. There’s no need to be so strict, right?” Then, a very slick voice came from the side. It seemed to be the younger brother that Senior Brother Zheng had brought.
