Chapter 312.2: Releasing the Devil in the Heart

It had probably been too long ago that this last happened and he actually found that he missed it a little. So he quietly lowered his head and allowed Qing Yu to ruffle his head as she liked.

That highly affectionate action had naturally caused the little toddler beside him to immediately see red as he gritted his teeth silently, thinking that this golden haired fella was really quite a scheming rat.

Qing Yu then went inside.

Actually, it was not just the little runt. She was able to sense the familiar aura in there as well. But for some unknown reason, the aura was very very faint, so faint that she was almost unable to sense it.

Although she did not know the reason why, a bad feeling slowly rose up inside her. Is it because her mother has met with some kind of danger?

Or is it because….. she is hurt and that is why her aura has become so faint that it is almost undetectable?

But no matter what the reason is, she hopes that before she gets to her, nothing bad must happen to her mother.

On the other side, after overcoming a bout of danger, the path for the group of people who came into the Mind Free Peak was relatively peaceful and safe for them.

Meatball was leading the way in front, and it was not known whether it was because the powerful aura of its bloodline was so intimidating that not another single spirit beast came to appear before them that made the journey forward safe and quiet for everyone.

Upon seeing that, Qing Bei could not help but crease up his brows and asked quizzically: “Meatball, all those spirit beasts that attacked us earlier, were they all of a higher level than you?”

When the tiny beast walking in front heard that, it did not even turn its head around as it replied: “You do not need to overthink it too much. A Dark Phantasm Spirit Cat is already at the twentieth level at birth. In terms of levels, no spirit beast can come close to a Dark Phantasm Spirit Cat.”

Those words spoken with absolute certainty felt like they carried a kind of indescribable pride as well.

“In that case, even if you encounter a spirit beast with high and profound cultivation, you will be able to beat them into a retreat with the powers of your bloodline?”

“In normal circumstances, that will be the case.”

“Then when we encountered those spirit beats earlier, why did you not intimidate them and hold them back but made us suffer so much?” Qing Bei then asked in a slightly begrudging voice.

Meatball paused in its steps, its face bewildered. “Why should I hold them? They were not attacking me.”

Qing Bei was stumped for words for an instant before he choked out a response: “Aren’t we working together on the same side?”

“Of course not.” Meatball rolled its eyes as it said that. “I am only on my mother’s side alone, and nobody else’s.”

Just as he thought. He just knew that without Qing Yu around, the disdain the little beast had for him just could not be anymore obvious, where it could not even be bothered to conceal it in the slightest.
