The Little Skeleton and the Moon Chasing Hound woke up and were dumbfounded to see that their homes had been taken.
Su Ping darted a look at the Moon Chasing Hound. This was a pet that had been put in care by someone else. The owner would come and pick it up the next day.
The fee that the other party had paid was only for general care. They had no choice but to give it up.
All of a sudden, the system said in a serious tone, "All the pets of the customers in this store must be kept in nursing pens. The host must buy another nursing pen to house the Moon Chasing Hound."
Su Ping was surprised. "But the other party came before. It was only for general care."
"As the owner of a pet store, how can you not care about your pets?"
"… If you're so kind, why don't you give me some for free?"
"… Warning, first warning for swearing!"
"When did I swear? I # $…"
"Warning, second warning for swearing!"
"…!"
Su Ping calmed down in an instant.
Inhale, exhale …
Su Ping had gotten over it. It was just a matter of 10 energy points. He could afford it with his current savings. Besides, the Moon Chasing Hound would be picked up the next day and it wouldn't take long. He would have to buy more nursing pens when he got new customers.
"Today's 1 energy point maintenance fee will be paid out of my own pocket."
Su Ping was speechless. He had only earned about 100 coins from the Moon Chasing Hound. It was as if he had taken care of the Moon Chasing Hound for free.
Fortunately, such a thing would never happen again.
He chose to buy it. Soon, another nursing pen appeared out of thin air.
"Go ahead." Su Ping told the Moon Chasing Hound to go in with its tongue hanging out.
The Little Skeleton: "???"
Su Ping squatted down and patted the Little Skeleton's head. He accidentally used a bit of force and broke the Little Skeleton's head. Embarrassed, he quickly put the Little Skeleton's head back in.
Su Ping breathed a sigh of relief when the bones were put back in place. The Little Skeleton was his pet and it didn't need to stay in the nursing pen. The system didn't require this.
"When I have extra energy later, I'll buy you a nursing pen," Su Ping said to the little skeleton.
Since it was his family's, he naturally couldn't suffer. He had to enjoy it.
The Little Skeleton seemed to understand and nodded blankly.
Su Ping smiled and went to the lounge. He glanced at his remaining Energy Points. He had earned over 300 today. Adding the Energy Points from before, he had a total of 400 Energy Points. He was quite rich.
"Upgrade the Chaos Spirit Pool," Su Ping said.
The energy above was instantly deducted by a hundred.
At the same time, the edge of the Chaos Spirit Pool in front of Su Ping, which looked like a dry well, suddenly glowed brightly. When the bright light disappeared, some strange lines appeared on the edge of the Chaos Spirit Pool, which looked like some ancient runes.
"It has risen to Level 2."
Su Ping was overjoyed. The second-level Spirit Pool could draw in one ten-millionth of the chaotic aura. At best, it could breed pets with advanced bloodlines!
Each pet with an advanced bloodline could be sold for hundreds of thousands of energy points on the market at the very least. The outstanding ones could be sold for tens of millions or even hundreds of millions!
Even though the pet store couldn't sell the pets at the moment, Su Ping could train the pets himself and rent them out. That would be a great source of income!
"Do you want to start the breeding?"
"Yes."
"The breeding cost is one hundred energy points. Please confirm."
"…"
Su Ping didn't know that after the Chaos Spirit Pool was upgraded, the breeding cost would increase by ten times. As a result, he only had enough energy points left for three breeding attempts!
After a moment of hesitation, Su Ping made up his mind and chose to confirm.
"Activating the Chaos Spirit Pool …"
The dry well of the Chaos Spirit Pool began to glow. Starlight seemed to be gathering at the bottom.
A moment later, the Chaos Spirit Pool went back to normal. It was quiet again.
"Breeding failed." A prompt appeared above the Chaos Spirit Pool.
Su Ping was stunned.
Failed?
Breeding could fail?
"When the chaotic aura is used to create life, there is a small chance that it will make a mistake. Life cannot be created," the system explained.
Su Ping was dumbfounded. That was to say, his one hundred energy points were gone just like that?
"Breeding successful?" Another prompt appeared above the Chaos Spirit Pool.
Su Ping came back to his senses. His eyes were red. That was one hundred energy points, which was equal to ten thousand bucks. Gone just like that!
"Let's try again!" Su Ping made up his mind.
The Chaos Spirit Pool glowed again after the energy was poured in. When the light was about to disappear, Su Ping opened his eyes wide.
A milky white egg was floating above the Chaos Spirit Pool.
“！！”
Su Ping was dumbfounded. How the f * ck could an egg be hatched?
Even his identification skill was ineffective in front of this egg. He couldn't tell anything.
"Please collect."
Su Ping picked up the huge egg. It was warm to the touch. All of a sudden, he thought of fried eggs and felt hungry.
"What kind of egg is this? How do I hatch it?" Su Ping couldn't help but ask the system.
"The host will have to deal with it yourself," the system said.
The corner of Su Ping's mouth twitched. He could identify pets, but to identify eggs … Did he have to pay for an expert from the Pet Appraisal Center himself?
On second thought, Su Ping gave up the idea. He didn't have that much money and it wasn't cheap to hire an expert to identify the egg. He would rather look for information about pet eggs on the Internet. Maybe he could find it on his own.
He put the egg on the single bed next to him. The bed was for him to take a break in the afternoon. He put the egg next to the pillow and covered it with the quilt to keep it warm.
With that done, Su Ping turned around and looked at the Chaos Spirit Pool. After a moment of hesitation, he gave up on trying.
He only had one hundred energy points left.
Next, he had to complete the main mission, open up cultivation planes, and buy more deaths. All of these would consume energy points. He had to save some.
Thinking of the training mission, Su Ping remembered that when he completed the mission to save the store's reputation, the system had given him access to any cultivation plane and unlimited deaths!
"Great. I can take this opportunity to complete the main mission and the training mission."
Su Ping chuckled to himself. He left the lounge and saw the Lightning Rat hiding behind the counter. With a big smile, he waved at the Lightning Rat. "Come here. Come here."
The Lightning Rat was so scared that its hair stood on end. The Lightning Rat had used the "Thunder Cloak" skill. Its hair was like steel needles with electric sparks. The Lightning Rat showed its teeth and glared at Su Ping with hostility.
The Little Skeleton seemed to have sensed the Lightning Rat's hostility. All of a sudden, the Little Skeleton that was behind Su Ping stumbled over to Su Ping.
The Little Skeleton clenched its fists and put up a defensive posture like a martial artist. The Little Skeleton stared at the Lightning Rat with dull eyes. The crimson color in the black holes became more intense.
Su Ping was surprised. He didn't expect that this little thing would take the initiative to protect him.
Su Ping was taken aback by the Little Skeleton's nervousness, anxiety, and viciousness.
After a moment of silence, Su Ping slowly picked up the Little Skeleton, walked to the door, and pulled down the shutter door.
The store dimmed down at once.
Su Ping went back to the counter and called up the cultivation plane.
"System, can I bring both of them to the same cultivation plane?" Su Ping asked.
"The host can only bring pets that have signed contracts with the host to a cultivation plane. If the host wants to bring a customer's pet for training, the host must purchase a temporary contract," the system answered.
"A temporary contract?"
