[Introduction]: The Thousand-face Fox is a very ancient monster. It was originally an exclusive spirit of the royal scout in the card civilization but disappeared into the annals of history due to the destruction of the Card World.

This is a Thousand-face Fox which has traveled through a long river of time. Having experienced the passage of time, it is full of wisdom. It has naturally surpassed other ordinary Thousand-face Foxes and has understood the true meaning of a thousand faces.

If you contract it, you will obtain…

*****

Su Bai had already prepared the Thousand-face Fox's data, and this result did not disappoint him, but it had only five evolutions, unlike his other pets that had six evolutions. Furthermore, it only had one evolutionary direction.

Still, it was not without unique features. Having only hatched after such a long time, the most important thing was that, as its Pet Tamer, he had acquired the Thousand Variations skill.

With the skill, he could change into someone else.

As for the Never Walk Alone, he did not manage to obtain the skill even though he liked it very much.

Humans were solitary creatures, whose joys and sorrows were not intertwined. Su Bai heavily desired the skill that would allow him to communicate with other people and feel the existence of another soul in the universe of mind.

He thought that, if so, he wanted to experience the beating of another heart no matter where he was. Unfortunately, he had not acquired the bonding skill.

"Hing…"

Ah Bai, can you take me to meet my other siblings?

The Little White Fox looked up at Su Bai and projected his spiritual thoughts.

Unlike the Little Tyrant, who was fierce and difficult to communicate with when it first hatched, the baby fox actually knew that he had rescued it and helped it replenish its origin. Therefore, its natural affection for him was full to the brim, and it also passed to him its telepathic thoughts mildly.

"Of course, you can, but don't rush; take a break first. I'll take you there this afternoon." He nodded.

"Hing…"

Thank you, Ah Bai. Can you give me a name?

The baby fox looked at him with its blue eyes, which were as gentle as the autumn water.

He nodded and fell into deep thought. He ruminated on it for a long while before tentatively proposing, "How about Thousand Face or the Mewling Fox?"

"Hing… ( ̄ー ̄)"

I'll be called whatever you like.

Although slightly helpless, the baby fox still smiled happily.

"Okay, then. You should get acquainted with your siblings. We'll go and find Rouxue in the afternoon; your other partner is with her."

Su Bai nodded.

The Mewling Fox played with the other pets while he sent a message to his girlfriend, asking to meet in the town this afternoon. He wrote a cultivation plan for the baby fox, confident that he had enough money to raise it since it was only a low-level servant.

However, it was true that the burden was now heavier on his shoulders, but he was not worried, for as long as he could enter the wilderness, he would not have to worry about having no money to raise his pets.

In the meantime, he would not contract new pets. These four were really good pets that he could not bear to abandon.

Although the number of contract pets and pages were almost limitless as long as the Pet Tamer continued to advance, each Pet Tamer usually only trained one or two dozen pets. Any more than this, they could not cultivate them carefully and did not have as much energy to do so, either.

After finishing the cultivation plan, he played with the pets again. Mewling Fox and Purple Jade were the happiest playing together, which might be due to the similarity of their races.

What Su Bai admired more was the baby fox's abilities. It could already imitate its siblings' skills. Even if its power was not strong, its imitating ability was still unparalleled.

It could play a big role at the critical moment.

"Let's go to town."

After 3 p.m., he gestured to his pets.

The Little Bloodworm stayed at home while the others went out with him.

In town, he saw that Chen Rouxue was already waiting for him. She stared at him in a daze when he walked over. "Boyfriend, did you know that any Pet Tamer who estabilishes a contract with a Thousand-face Fox can obtain the Thousand Variations skill?"

Although the skill had appeared only after contracting the Thousand-face Fox, she still felt like her boyfriend had already known about it in advance.

"I only found out, too. This skill is pretty easy to use; we won't have to show our true faces next time when we are in the Scarlet Wilderness," said Su Bai solemnly.

"Really?" asked Chen Rouxue with uncertainty.

"Yes." He nodded.

"Okay. I misunderstood you," she said, "but the summoner skill is indeed very good, and the Thousand-face Fox is also very talented. By the way, is yours male or female?"

"Female, and yours?" Su Bai glanced at the two baby foxes licking each other's fur while mewling.

"Mine is also female." The girl was dumbfounded.

He was stunned as well. He originally thought that they were a couple, but they might be sisters, instead.

"This is the cultivation plan I made. I looked through it. Your Thousand-face Fox is about the same as mine, so you can just follow this nurturing method."

He handed the training manual to Chen Ruoxue and then said, "Let's go buy some materials for them to make some potions later."

"Okay."

The girl nodded and then reluctantly said, "Erm, I might be away for two months."

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"My dad signed me up for a training team without permission. It cost several million and the tuition fee has been paid already. The training team is over in An Cheng, so I'll have to go there and participate.

"It's really annoying; he's always been like this. He doesn't ask for my opinion and just insists that it's for my own good.

"I'm already an adult, but he still applied for this training class. I think it might be because he heard from one of my relatives that my cousin trained there during the summer vacation and was admitted to a top spirit university within the following year.

"It's just an ordinary school, but they went over the top. My standards now are definitely better."

Chen Rouxue felt even more enraged the more she talked about it. Her plans to go on adventures with her boyfriend were ruined because of her father.

"Don't be angry; just go out and travel. Parents are always like that. We can just choose a place far away from Cannes when we're in college.

"It's no big deal. You can go and take a look; I might even accompany you that day."

Su Bai patted his girlfriend on the shoulder. Encountering this kind of situation, she needed to become independent fast.

Chen Rouxue remained silent as she was feeling frustrated. Eventually, she said in an irritable voice, "You're right. Once I'm in college, I won't even return home during Chinese New Year. It's so annoying."

"It's alright. When we obtain more honors and achievements, they'll understand that they no longer need to make decisions for us. It won't be like this once they realize that."

He continued comforting her. His mother had been the exact same last time, but after he obtained a junior trainer certificate, won championships, and solved the reservoir problem, which even they were at their wits' end about, they no longer called the shots for him. Instead, they would ask for his opinions on everything.

"The most annoying thing is those rotten relatives of mine don't even know what they're doing, but they pretend to be knowledgeable about astronomy and geography, talking nonsense all day long."

Chen Rouxue complained to him with an unhappy expression. Having no one to confide to at home, she was truly filled with grievances.

"Let's go; I'll take you to drink milk tea, and then we'll have a good time. Anyway, it'll only be for two months; the time will pass quickly."

Su Bai took the girl's hand and smiled, leading the way for their pets to follow.

After shopping, the couple went to play on the mountains and only returned when it was dark.

At the intersection, only the pair and their pets remained. She turned to him and leaned in to plant a kiss on his cheek. With her face blushing, she said softly, "I'll go now; I'll miss you."

"Be careful and call me if anything happens." He nodded. Her parents would be sending her off tomorrow, so it was not convenient for him to be there.

Despite feeling a little melancholic, he knew that there was no other way. The world was full of farewells, but thankfully this was only a short-term farewell between him and his girlfriend.

After watching the girl disappear from sight, Su Bai turned around to leave.

"Hing…"

Ah Bai, will I be unable to see Qiu Qiu for a while?

The baby fox looked up at him and asked, very reluctant to part with its sister.

"Yes, for two months." Su Bai nodded. Suddenly, he was unable to cheer himself up.

Qiu Qiu was the name of Chen Rouxue's Thousand-face Fox.

"Howl~ ( ̄~ ̄)ξ"

Ah Bai, you still have me. Am I not cute?

The cub rubbed itself on his leg.

"Roar~"

You still have me. Why bother being sad for a worthless human being? I won't leave you!

The Little Tyrant sent out sparks which turned into brilliant fireworks.

Su Bai: "…"

Was it trying to comfort him?

However, their performances still lifted his spirits.

"Alright, we'll go to the monster wilderness for a stroll tomorrow."

Since Chen Rouxue could not go to the wilderness with him, Su Bai decided to set off tomorrow. He still had to work hard and become a better Pet Tamer.

"Roar~"

The Little Tyrant was overjoyed. It had finished its supply of ores, and its owner had yet to replenish this. Ah Bai, don't be upset. I'll find two beautiful ores for you tomorrow. Then you can go coax that female human being. They all like shiny things. My genes are telling me that having plenty of ores will make it easier to obtain mating rights~

The Little Tyrant happily puffed out a heart-shaped flame and hammered its chest.

Su Bai: "…"

Instead of coaxing, it should be called flirting. It was called improving their relationship, okay?

He was speechless and suddenly wanted to beat up this pet of his. However, its skin was too thick and would only hurt his hand.

The Little Tyrant was unaware of his mood in the slightest bit and felt like it would definitely obtain his favor by comforting him, which would then translate to lots of food for it later.

It happily smashed the stone blocking its path and wildly bounded onward.

Back home, at dinnertime, the Little Tyrant excitedly looked up at its owner.

However, when it was given a single medicinal cake, it felt stunned.

Σ(゚∀゚ノ)ノ

Why didn't I receive more food? This isn't logical. Didn't Ah Bai feel comforted by me?

"Don't look so shocked; I didn't give you any less." The youth patted its head.

"Roar~"

The Little Tyrant lowered its head and started gobbling up its food. Forget it if its owner did not want to give it more food. It felt that the youth did not understand ladies' hearts; he was so foolish that he was cute.

As it ate, a spiritual vortex of gold, gray, and red exploded from its body. The huge spiritual vortex directly blew away all the sheets and quilts, including the papers on the table.

The size of the Little Tyrant then slowly grew to 1.8 meters under the spiritual power's nourishment. Its muscles became more and more prominent, and sturdy, black spikes, as thick as Godzilla's, started growing on its rough skin.

Its whole appearance now looked like a monster full of explosive power. It was now a picture of a natural predator.

As it grew larger, the three-color spiritual vortex slowly disappeared around its body. Right now, the aura it radiated was stronger. The Little Tyrant had broken through to the warlord level!

"Roar!"

Su Bai: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ

Purple Jade: Σ(`д′*ノ)ノ

Mewling Fox: "Hing hing!"

Little Bloodworm: Terrifying

The boy was totally caught off guard by his pet's sudden breakthrough.

"Roar~╰(* ́)`*)╯"

Ah Bai, am I not amazing? I'm strong, aren't I?

The Little Tyrant looked at its owner. It was almost the same height as him. However, its body had explosive muscles which were three or four times larger than Su Bai's; even its weight was over a thousand catties.

"You broke through just like this?"

His pet stared at him: Otherwise? Is there a procedure to go through?

"Amazing." Su Bai checked its data and saw that, at the warlord level, its strength had more than doubled compared to before. Only when it entered the warlord level was it considered to be growing up.

Moreover, the Little Tyrant's awakening skill was very powerful at the warlord level. The name of this skill was called the Dead Cocoon: The cocoon transformed by the dead spirit of the undead can hit and merge into an enemy's body. It will then absorb the essence of life and become a cocoon, killing the enemy.

The Little Tyrant's sudden breakthrough gave Su Bai a big surprise. This way, he would feel even more relieved when he sought the insect ruins in the wilderness tomorrow.

"Roar~"

I'm famished.

The Little Tyrant looked eagerly at him.

Su Bai: "…"

You're as tall as I am now, but you're still acting cute?

However, since it had just broken through, it deserved to be rewarded. He directly rewarded it with the catalyst potion for breaking through to the warlord level.

The cub and the Mewling Fox helped clean up the house, glancing from time to time at their powerful sibling with mixed feelings.

Especially Purple Jade, it did not expect its younger brother to catch up so quickly. It realized that it must work harder, or else its status as the elder sister would be lost.
