On the way, Fang Ziyu sent a message to Xiao Bai and asked him to help look after the shop.
Then, he slowly walked towards the spot where Li Huiting was being surrounded. In fact, his main purpose was to buy Level 1 cores. At the same time, he wanted to see how miserable the people who dared to surround Li Huiting would end up.
Fang Ziyu first went to the Mutated Plants and Cores Market and spent more than 10,000 yuan to buy 10 Level 1 cores before going over to see how Li Huiting was doing.
Fang Ziyu didn't believe that any gangster would have a Level 2 pet. If they didn't have a Level 2 pet, wouldn't they be asking for a beating if they went to surround Li Huiting against a wall?
"Argh… Oh… Sister… We are sorry…"
Fang Ziyu, who was far away, heard a few men begging for mercy. He thought that it was as expected.
Even he was envious of Li Huiting's Yin Yang Cat. How much courage did these people have to surround her against a wall?
Walking forward, Fang Ziyu saw what was happening in the alley.
The three idle members of society knelt on the ground. The two mutated three-tailed dogs and the two-headed rooster next to them were shooting out water arrows and flames with all their might. Their target was the Yin Yang Cat, Mo Bao, floating in the air in front of Li Huiting.
Seeing three attacks coming at him, Mo Bao was neither anxious nor panicked. Then, the color of the black and white fur and the black and white wings on its body was completely reversed.
It initiated the skill of Black and White Inversion, bouncing back 100% of the elemental attacks lower than its level.
Instantly, all the attacks that were aimed at it were knocked backwards and landed on the ground not far away.
Then, Mo Bao's eyes turned white again. It activated the White Eye among the Black and White Cat Eye again. It could rapidly replenish its lost magic power during the day. It immediately restored most of the magic power that it had just used by initiating the Black and White Inversion.
"Ahwooh… I want to fight too. I want to have fun." Icy was eager to fight.
"Don't. If you attack them with your claws, those pets will die." Fang Ziyu quickly stopped it.
He didn't think that there was anything wrong with what Li Huiting did. She was just walking on the street and they dared to surround her against a wall, so they certainly had to pay the price.
He was even envious of Li Huiting's method of using gangsters to train her pets.
Unfortunately, he wasn't a pretty girl. Besides, the Level 3 Icy was too strong. Ordinary pets would be killed with a slash.
"Can't you control your pets to launch some elemental attacks?" Li Huiting asked unhappily.
"Sister, our pets have already launched three elemental attacks. Their magic powers have been used up. How can they continue attacking?" The three gangsters pleaded with a bitter face.
They had never thought that the cat in the arms of a weak lady was actually a Level 2 pet, and its skills were so terrifying.
"Get out of here." Li Huiting clapped her hands and glanced at the three gangsters.
As if they had been granted amnesty, the gangsters immediately stood up and fled with their pets.
Li Huiting turned around to look at Fang Ziyu and said, "I thought that you would rush over to save me after hearing the news!"
"I came out mainly to buy cores." Fang Ziyu raised the bag in his hand to show her.
"I really want to ask Mo Bao to kill you." Li Huiting took a deep breath and said.
"You might not be able to defeat me." Fang Ziyu scratched his head, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
He had never been worried about Li Huiting since the beginning. Fang Ziyu didn't believe that she would be as "lucky" as him to be able to encounter a Level 4 existence the moment she went out.
The two of them, one carrying a bag with a dragon and the other holding a cat, headed towards the pet store.
The early morning in August was slightly chilly. There were no birds chirping or insects buzzing. People on the streets were in a hurry. In the era after the rise of Spiritual Energy, not everyone was idle. Most of them were still doing their original jobs. There weren't many people who dared to challenge life.
Fang Ziyu's pace of life wasn't fast to begin with. After he slowly returned to the store, it was already eight o'clock.
Li Huiting was a little curious when she saw a new young man in the shop. At first, she thought that he was here to buy a pet, but after understanding the situation, she realized that he was Fang Ziyu's new employee.
That was also a good thing. Li Huiting patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "It's good to have more people. Come over, I'll teach you how to work."
Fang Xiaojie was a little nervous when he saw a beautiful girl like Li Huiting. He thought that she was Fang Ziyu's girlfriend, but after hearing what she said, he realized that she was also an employee here. He nodded and smiled. "Sister, just teach me. I'll do the work."
"Hmm, young man, you're very smart." Li Huiting clapped her hands and brought Fang Xiaojie to the hall to tidy up the cat cages with the tools.
Fang Ziyu pondered for a while and didn't say anything in the end. He was planning to take Fang Xiaojie to Xiao Bai's place to clean up.
He first took out a core for Icy to eat. Then, he crushed another one and gave half to Daiyu and half to Yellow.
After he was done, he took the tools and went to Xiao Bai's building. He was about to go upstairs when Xiao Bai dragged him to the backyard.
There was nothing he could do. Xiao Bai's arms were thicker than his thighs.
Xiao Bai pointed at the Chinese trumpet vine, which was also a Vine of Demonic Words that hadn't fully grown, and asked Fang Ziyu to take a look to see how well he was taking care of it.
"It can't be any better." Fang Ziyu said perfunctorily and went upstairs to work.
Just by looking at the swaying dark green leaves, he could tell how good this vine was. The flower pot was even filled with core powder.
He felt that Xiao Bai was definitely showing off on purpose.
His daily life was more or less the same, as if he was repeating the events of the previous day.
Fang Ziyu returned to the shop and laid on the familiar recliner. He picked up the Encyclopedia of Insects that he hadn't finished reading yesterday.
Because of the Giant White Rabbit incident yesterday and the testimonies of the five netizens on the forum, as well as the huge advertisement sign at the entrance, his shop wasn't as quiet as before.
From time to time, a few people would come, but not many would make up their minds to buy pets.
With Fang Xiaojie and Li Huiting to serve the customers, he didn't need to get up all the time. Only when he saw a pet he had never seen before would he go over to take a photo to earn some Handbook Points.
He could really earn some Handbook Points in a morning.
He was mainly in charge of pet consultation. There were people consulting him from time to time, but not many actually did something.
The pet store of Love Pets on the opposite side seemed to be a little helpless about Fang Ziyu's advertisement. They lowered the price of the pets again but didn't transport pets with a Level 3 potential to the store.
Perhaps for them, markets elsewhere were more important.
On the other hand, the Love Pets Training Center got more than 10 Level 2 pets and even made a big scene. They said that if someone defeated their pets, they would be rewarded with 10,000 yuan. If all 10 pets were defeated, they would be rewarded with a very rare Level 1 mutated plant called Yellow Essence, which could be used to increase Spiritual Power.
At the same time, they posted an advertisement saying that they were specialized in training pets, with the most professional team to build the strongest path for people's pets, and that they were an indispensable helper for people to become a peak-Level 9 Summoner.
Fang Ziyu scoffed at this. There hadn't even been a Level 9 Summoner yet and they dared to bluff like this. They were truly talking big!
Time flew by quickly. It was as if he had just eaten breakfast and it was already lunchtime.
This was very frustrating. The frail bodies of humans had decided that most of their time should be spent on these things. Even the rise of Spiritual Energy couldn't change this for the time being.
But such trivial matters could always bring people happiness and sorrow, forming a magnificent life.
While he was eating, he heard another news. After the gardener who was burnt to death yesterday, another person died today. The head of the deceased seemed to have been cut off by a sharp knife.
And the guards in the neighborhood were complaining that a few fish kept in the pond in their neighborhood were missing.
Hearing this, Fang Ziyu silently lowered his head and slurped a mouthful of noodles, thinking that this matter should have nothing to do with him.
