I knew it; the temptation of food is the same for all, regardless of species!

Zhang Che held the roasted thigh of the Purple-Eyed Fox in his hand, looking at the quickly gathering dozen or so exotic beasts of various species. He had come to a realization.

Of course, this kind of situation might just be a coincidence. He had to try this out a few more times to confirm it.

However, Zhang Che didnt have to worry about that for now. The proper course of action right now was to harvest these exotic beasts lives, allowing them to contribute a few beast cards to him. Was there any reason to reject experience that came knocking on your doors by itself?

Therefore, Zhang Che adjusted his sitting position and brought the roasted meat to his mouth, tearing off a mouthful of it. He immediately felt an indescribable flavor assaulting his taste buds, producing a large amount of saliva.

The Purple-Eyed Foxs meat isnt only fragrant; even its taste is like heaven on earth! Zhang Che exclaimed in admiration, his eyes half-closed in pleasure. Meanwhile, the Purple Jade Condor dove down from the sky, its huge figure akin to a bolt of purple lightning, streaking across the air in the blink of an eye and arriving above a huge lizard-like exotic beast.

It was only when the generated gale came assaulting its face that the huge lizard realized the impending threat. It was already too late by the time it thought to dodge.

How could it be possible for this huge lizard to dodge the diving attack of the three-star dark gold-quality Purple Jade Condor? A streak of blood splashed in the air, its head ripped apart by the Purple Jade Condors talons.

==[You Killed an Iron-Scaled Lizard. Obtained 6 Points of Soul Force.]==

The mechanical sound of notification rang in Zhang Ches mind, like the cue to the start of a symphony, ringing non-stop.

The Purple Jade Condor turned into a streak of purple lightning, its figure zipping about everywhere, seemingly unaffected by inertia. Every swoop would claim the life of an exotic beast, quickly turning it into a streak of glowing light, either disappearing entirely or turning into a beast card.

Ai, this didnt come easy. Finally, I dont have to do things personally, Zhang Che murmured gratefully as he chewed on the roasted meat. It seems like having a powerful subdued beast is a necessity in order to bring up productivity. Im really looking forward to seeing how powerful the Scarlet Flame Drake will be when I advance to Tier Four.

Before Zhang Che was done eating the thigh of the Purple-Eyed Fox, the Purple Jade Condor was already done with its killing mission and flew back up into the sky, scouting the area dutifully.

Five beast cards of various quality were all that was left of the dozen exotic beasts attracted over here by the fragrance of the roasted meat.

Go, frisky monkey. Pick up those beast cards for me.

Zhang Che had thoroughly fell into decadence, treating the Gluttony Monkey as a servant. Any tasks that required him to move around would be delegated to the poor fellow.

However, the frisky monkey didnt move a single muscle.

Turning around to look, Zhang Che discovered that this fellows round eyes were staring at the roasted meat on the bonfire, a long trail of saliva flowing out of its mouth reaching all the way to his feet in an unbroken trail!

Zhang Che slapped his forehead speechlessly. He sighed and said, You should have said so earlier if you wanted to eat! Did you think I wouldnt share with you?

Zhizhi! the frisky monkey immediately cried out excitedly, his eyes beaming.

But, Zhang Che said, extending a finger out, before you eat the meat, shouldnt you bring back those beast cards for me, first?

Before Zhang Che could finish his sentence, the Gluttony Monkey disappeared from where he was standing, moving at a speed comparable to Hanxue.

In less than a minute, the Gluttony Monkey came back to Zhang Che with his palms open, offering the five beast cards in a straight line to him.

Zhang Che was smiling from ear to ear. The beast cards were scattered in all directions. If he were forced to pick them up himself, he would have had to spend several minutes doing so.

Not bad, not bad!

After taking the beast cards off the Gluttony Monkeys palms, Zhang Che tore the Purple-Eyed Fox in two and gave half to the frisky monkey. The latter immediately brought the golden brown roasted meat up to its mouth and started devouring it, looking like he was possessed by a hungry ghost.

Two three-star bronze cards, one three-star black iron card, and one two-star bronze card. A decent harvest!

After looking through the newly acquired cards attributes, Zhang Che nodded in satisfaction. As he was about to grab his backpack by the side, he suddenly froze on the spot.

He discovered that the Gluttony Monkeys hands were already empty, while his mouth was still chewing, his rounded eyes staring at the remaining roasted meat.

Did you finish all of that? With the freaking bones and all?

This frisky monkeys astonishing eating speed really surprised Zhang Che. That piece of roasted meat weighed several kilograms, and he actually finished it so quickly. Did he even take two minutes to finish it?

The Gluttony Monkeys mouth moved a little, and he spat out a piece of bone, as if to protest, Im not a dog, why would I be eating bones!?

Zhang Che looked at the unfinished Purple-Eyed Fox thigh in his hand, before silently handing the remaining half of the roasted meat to the Gluttony Monkey.

Eat, you glutton! This is the last of it, no more.

The Gluttony Monkey was very obedient; in less than two minutes, the remaining roasted meat was all in his stomach, with a small pile of bones spat out to the side.

It seems like your name is really well-deserved, Zhang Che shook his head. He brought the unfinished thigh up, ignoring the frisky monkeys anticipating looks at him and continued enjoying the cuisine slowly.

-I really cant give you this thigh. Wouldnt I have to go hungry otherwise?-

Zhizhi!

What is it now? Zhang Che looked up. He realized that the Gluttony Monkey was carrying the Falling Star Model X on his back, and a quiver in his hand.

-What the heck? Is this glutton thinking of hunting another Purple-Eyed Fox, and getting me to become his cook?-

Zhang Ches mind nearly crumbled at the thought of it.

Go, go, all of this is karma. Why did I eye on your potential and take you in? Zhang Che waved his hand weakly. The frisky monkey immediately cried out excitedly, dashing in the direction of the hilly area from before. This glutton remembered clearly that he had shot the Purple-Eyed Fox in that area.

The frisky monkey quickly disappeared into the distance. Zhang Che revealed a faint, warm smile. -Although this fellow is a little playful, and a little bit of a glutton, this way is much better than subdued beasts that only follow orders like robots.-

Although the subdued beasts probably had a little awareness, they werent considered truly alive. Apart from obeying orders and using their abilities to hunt exotic beasts, they werent able to interact much with their owner.

If one didnt have an interesting partner in this desolate beast world while hunting, it was very easy to become depressed. Since he had the rainbow crystal and was able to take in some exotic beasts as pets, Zhang Che didnt have to worry about his psychological wellbeing.

The dark gradually darkened. The frisky monkey finally returned after slightly less than half an hour, with plenty of trophies in tow. The bow and arrows were slung on his back, and he was carrying half a dozen Purple-Eyed Foxes with both hands.

-Now, who exactly was the one who invented the idiom, happy to partake, but not prepared to do any work?

-Come take a look at my little frisky monkey. Have you ever seen such a hardworking glutton?-
