The first day of the new supervisor
Actually, Yu Sansui and his colleagues in the Roaring Tiger Park did not need to make such a big fuss, for Xia Fei and Furball had signed a blood contract, the kind that would not separate in life and death. Even if Xia Fei really did beat up Furball, the latter would not complain.
Usually, the higher the rank of an exotic beast, the harder it was for it to recognize a master, but once it did, the exotic beast would display a far more loyal personality than humans. Even if Xia Fei wanted to chase Furball away, he could not do so unless he killed him.
Furthermore, Xia Fei was not beating up Furball. Those two slaps were nothing more than a few light pats on the head. Ever since the day he met Furball, Xia Fei had never seen Furball get hurt. Neither the scorching lava nor the frigid depths of the sea could stop him, so it would be very difficult for Xia Fei to teach Furball a lesson. He would probably need to use his strongest martial arts technique to beat Furball up for three days and three nights, and only then would he be able to leave a scratch on Furball.
Since his exotic beast was disobedient, Xia Fei had taught it a little lesson. This was not a big deal in Xia Fei's eyes, but Yu Sansui did not think so. This was because Furball was not an exotic beast, a Beast King, or a Divine Beast, but a legendary Holy Beast!
Normal people could not wait to worship it, so why would they dare to teach it a lesson?
Xia Fei frowned, clearly hearing Yu Sansui's soft whimper.
"Holy Beast? You mentioned that exotic beasts are divided into three ranks, but is there any such thing as Holy Beast? "Xia Fei approached him and asked through the cage.
Yu Sansui took out a porcelain bottle and popped a dark yellow pill under his tongue. It took him some time to regain his composure.
"Holy Beasts do not give birth or mate. They are unique existences in the universe, so they are not ranked because their existence has long surpassed their rank," Yu Sansui said with a trembling voice. Yu Sansui stammered. It was unknown whether it was because of Furball's growl or because Xia Fei had beaten Furball, but his complexion looked terrible. His face was pale, and his voice was hoarse.
Xia Fei was very curious, and just as he was about to ask for more details regarding Furball, the king of cats, the Four-eared Amber Cat, stood up from the ground. It turned out that Furball's low roar had not killed him but had instead knocked him unconscious.
With all four limbs on the ground, the Four-eared Amber Cat buried its head deep into the ground in a servile manner. Its messy fur drooped as it shivered.
Furball became very arrogant when he saw the Four-eared Amber Pet acting this way. He glanced at him from his perch on Xia Fei's shoulder before turning his head back and using his tongue to lick Xia Fei's neck, his attitude extremely ambiguous.
Xia Fei was afraid that Furball would scare that ugly cat again, so he kept him in his arms and walked over to the Four-eared Amber Cat, ordering it to do all sorts of things.
The Beast King was psychic, so the strange cat very quickly understood Xia Fei's intentions. When Xia Fei pointed to the west, it would go to the west, and when Xia Fei pointed to the east, it would go to the east. When Xia Fei told it to stand, it would not dare to sit, and when Xia Fei told it to sit, it would not dare to lie down. Even a domesticated kitten would not be so obedient.
Yu Sansui swallowed a mouthful of saliva, shocked beyond words.
The Four-eared Amber Cat was the king of cats, with a violent and manic personality. Before this, no one had ever dared to approach it, let alone tame it. However, in Xia Fei's hands, this king of cats did not even dare to breathe too loudly, trembling with fear as if it was treading on thin ice. Even if Xia Fei wanted it to die, it would not resist.
Xia Fei's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp, and the Beast Spirit Codex transmitted a message through his gaze that exotic beasts could not resist.
"Someone will be taking you away tomorrow. From now on, you must listen to her. You're not allowed to resist or cause trouble. If you don't obey her orders, I'll kill you!" Xia Fei said coldly.
The strange cat nodded repeatedly as if it understood what Xia Fei was saying.
"As long as it's a human, you must obey them. You're not allowed to hurt anyone again!" Xia Fei added.
The strange cat nodded once more in agreement.
The irresistible aura of a Holy Beast, coupled with the shock that the Beast Spirit Codex had on its soul had caused this king of cats to completely submit.
"Open the cage," Xia Fei ordered.
Yu Sansui trembled as he unlocked the cage. Xia Fei kicked the cage open and led the Four-eared Amber Cat away. The strange cat lowered its head, obediently following behind Xia Fei.
The cages on both sides of the road were dead silent. Xia Fei shook his head as he walked. He noticed that more than one exotic beast had been scared to death by Furball's low growl. They had all died in different ways, and all of them were gruesome to look at.
Heaving a sigh, Xia Fei ordered, "Count how many have died and report back to me."
Yu Sansui hurriedly led his men to do the count. Xia Fei released the other Beast King, the Green-eyed Explosive Flame Tiger, and led it to the front yard for training. It did not take much effort for the tiger to submit to Xia Fei.
There were several stone stools in the yard, and Xia Fei sat down and lit a cigarette. The tiger and cat obediently lay beside him, their heads drooping.
Not long after, Yu Sansui led his men out from the backyard.
"Sir, aside from these two Beast Kings, the rest of the exotic beasts are all dead," Yu Sansui reported, shaking his head.
Phantom was clutching his stomach with both hands as he laughed. "They originally had seventeen exotic beasts that were alive and kicking, but you killed more than half of them on your first day on the job. Everyone will think that you have a grudge against exotic beasts."
Xia Fei pursed his lips, speechless. The Roaring Tiger Park, which was already on the decline, had become even worse after this ruckus. It was likely that it would close down before long.
Dead beasts could not be resurrected, so Xia Fei instructed everyone to bury the carcasses properly. He then got Yu Sansui to bring him to the database to search for information on Furball.
Xia Fei had his own office, and there was a computer in the room that was connected to the database. Yu Sansui told him how to use it before he left.
Xia Fei turned on the screen and searched for information on Holy Beasts, casually tossing Furball onto the table.
"Holy Beasts are the most unique existences among exotic beasts. There's no evidence to suggest that Holy Beasts are born, and there's never been a case of Holy Beasts mating or giving birth in the process of humans rearing them. They appear out of nowhere in the universe, with no pattern to speak of. Any time and any place can be an opportunity for a Holy Beast to be born.
"Holy Beasts are proud and aloof throughout their lives, never forming groups with other exotic beasts. From birth to death, they exist alone in the universe …"
Xia Fei read through the information on exotic beasts, and Phantom sighed. "It turns out that the reason why Holy Beasts aren't ranked is because of their proud and aloof nature and their rarity. They're like the Saints of exotic beasts, solitary and powerful existences."
Xia Fei glanced at Furball. The description had praised Holy Beasts as if they were flowers, almost like immortal beasts that did not eat the food of mortals, but in reality, Furball was a glutton and lazy, very different from the Holy Beasts that stood proudly in the universe.
Xia Fei then inquired about the Shatterstar Beast, and a small white ball appeared on the screen. It was not much different from Furball, except that the ball's eyes were very sinister, like a black hole of deathly stillness. In comparison, Furball was much cuter, sometimes obedient and sometimes crafty, and its eyes were much closer to that of a human's.
"Cruel, bloodthirsty, violent, proud, destructive …"
Xia Fei read the description of the Shatterstar Beast, and he exchanged glances with Phantom, both finding it somewhat inconceivable.
The information on Furball was basically a great demon king that could destroy the heavens and the earth, killing without leaving a trace and being adept at energy attacks. It was said that an adult Shatterstar Beast only needed to spit out a beam of light from its mouth to tear a planet apart, hence its name.
"No, it's far too different." Phantom shook his head. "Look at that Shatterstar Beast; it's practically a weapon that can destroy everything. It's much crueler than Furball."
Xia Fei was also puzzled. There was not much information on it, and the only records he had described Furball as a monster. How was this an exotic beast? It was simply a demonic beast!
"Perhaps it's because you watched Furball grow up and signed a contract with you early on, so its personality is closer to yours, becoming a little different from its ancestor," Phantom analyzed.
Xia Fei replied, "Did you forget? There were a few times when Furball went on a rampage and attacked people, displaying an unparalleled violence? Perhaps its instincts have been suppressed."
The information was very different from reality, but Xia Fei was still very satisfied. At the very least, he now knew that Furball was a Holy Beast, a Holy Beast that had jumped out of the Three Realms and was not part of the Five Elements. It did not have a rank because its rank was so high that it could not be judged.
Given time, Furball would definitely become an unparalleled existence once it matured, becoming his most loyal right-hand man, and that was enough for Xia Fei.
The information was not complete, and there was no information on how long Furball would take to reach adulthood or what it would look like when it matured, which made Xia Fei feel rather regretful.
All of a sudden, he heard a woman's voice coming from the yard, yelling, "Who's the overseer of Roaring Tiger Park? Get your ass out here!"
Xia Fei furrowed his brows, placing Furball on his shoulder as he stepped into the yard.
He saw a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl with two slightly older maids sitting on a stone bench in the yard. Her arms were crossed, looking very angry.
"Miss, you are?" Xia Fei curiously asked.
The girl rolled her eyes at Xia Fei and coldly harrumphed. "You're the new overseer of Roaring Tiger Park?"
Xia Fei nodded. He did not know where this deity came from, for her to have such an arrogant attitude.
"Where's my Four-eared Amber Cat? You guys promised to help me tame it, so I'm taking it away today! "The girl was unrelenting.
Xia Fei laughed. "You must be the Miss Seven that Yu Sansui mentioned, right? I've let the Four-eared Amber Cat out for a stroll. I'll call it back right away. "
Taking a closer look, this girl was quite pretty. She had a high nose bridge, and her skin was fair and delicate. Xia Fei could not understand why this girl would like that monstrous cat that could not be any uglier.
Miss Seven appeared to be even more surprised than Xia Fei.
"What did you say? You've really tamed the Four-eared Amber Cat? "
Xia Fei nodded.
* Shing ~ *
The girl jumped up like a rabbit and hid behind the two maids. Her expression was unsettled as she muttered, "D * mn that Yu Sansui. Didn't he say that he could make fun of the new overseer? How did he really manage to tame that ugly thing? What should we do now? "
Miss Seven's name was Zhu Qiqi, and she was the great-great-granddaughter of the old patriarch, Yu Jiang. She had a mischievous personality and loved to make fun of people. Yu Sansui was furious when he found out that Xia Fei was about to take over his position as overseer, so he asked Zhu Qiqi to put on a show to make fun of Xia Fei.
Today, Zhu Qiqi was bored at home and had no one to make fun of, so she decided to come to Roaring Tiger Park a day early without informing Yu Sansui.
This was like shooting herself in the foot. Zhu Qiqi was not afraid of anything, even daring to make fun of the old patriarch, yet she was most afraid of cats!
