Lord of Pets

Chapter 94 - Pug

Chapter 94: Pug

In Living Room 101.

Bai Wushang drank a mouthful of hot mushroom soup and suddenly felt a warm feeling in his stomach.

The tip of his tongue was jumping with joy. It had been a long time since he had tasted such a delicacy.

“Is it because its appearance has scars and dirt, and it also howled like a wolf, so it affected your judgment?”

Bai Wushang put down the bowl and asked.

Ouyang Yuan sighed and replied, “Yes. At first, I was very nervous and afraid of failure. Who knew that I would succeed in just a short while? It only took me a dozen or so seconds, which made me very happy.”

“I was still thinking that the speed of the contract was so fast, which meant that this fellow recognized me, or that it was an excellent match with me, which was worthy of intensive cultivation.”

“At that time, its injuries were quite serious. I spent a whole three hours cleaning, bandaging, and applying medicine to it... on the first night, it slept very soundly.”

“... but the next day, the nightmare began!”

Ouyang Yuan covered his head as if he couldn’t bear to recall what had happened. His voice was a little choked up as he said, “The next day, Pug woke up earlier than me and licked me awake.”

“Then, it dragged me out... to play.”

“That was the first time I heard it bark, and I was stunned.”

“I kept comforting myself that it was an illusion, that it was an illusion, but... what happened next kept breaking my perception...”

......

“When it saw the strange-looking tree, it wanted to climb up and take a look...”

“When it encountered a flying butterfly, it was injured and yet could still chase the butterfly for an hour...”

“When it encountered some wild beasts that lived in groups, such as wolves, pigs, and cows... it would try to sneak into the enemy’s territory...”

Ouyang Yuan suddenly grabbed his hair, and his face was full of fatigue. He said, “These are merely the mildest incidents, so I could still forcefully accept it.”

“On the third day, it seemed that it was tired of staying with me and lost interest in me. Or it could also be that its injuries were almost healed... so Pug began to become more intense and mischievous.”

“I was in the middle of a trial! I just wanted to take advantage of the first five days of safety to connect well with the pet beast, but it was too energetic. As long as it was released, it would run crazily for half a day. If it wasn’t for the contract, it would have long abandoned me...”

Bai Wushang’s eyes revealed a trace of sympathy.

Ouyang Yuan’s encounter with Pug was truly a disaster.

This wasn’t a contracted pet beast, it was a contracted overlord!

He then heard Ouyang Yuan say, “Brother Bai, let me tell you, this fellow isn’t stupid. It is intelligent, but it just won’t listen to me. If it is able to execute my orders vaguely, then it will do so. Occasionally, it will pretend to deal with my orders and that will be the end of it.”

“The worst thing is that it only cares about causing trouble along the way. For instance, provoking the blood-sucking bees, licking the butt of a bull, jumping into the river to catch piranhas... in short, as long as it finds something interesting, it would want to lick or bite it. I really don’t know how this fellow has managed to live for so long. It’s a troublemaker!”

“The most ridiculous thing is that it often escapes alive and kicking, leaving me behind to face the evil beasts. It’s treating me like a slave and ordering me around. Am I the master or is it the master? When it encounters danger, it runs faster than me. I really admire it...”

“In the end, I wasn’t eliminated by the other masters at all. Instead, it was because of this stupid dog that provoked the sleeping bear, which was at the peak of its youth form. D*mn it, just thinking about it made me angry. Pug bit the bear’s buttocks, making it so angry that it chased me for seven to eight kilometers. I really couldn’t run anymore so I found an opportunity to forcefully take this stupid dog and quickly crushed the distress talisman...”

Ouyang Yuan drank a mouthful of fruit wine. At this moment, even the air was bitter.

“Yuan, there will always be a way. Don’t be discouraged!”

Sha Buru had already heard this story for the sixth time. He was still very patient and calm as he comforted Ouyang Yuan.

Bai Wushang speculated something and asked, “Ouyang Yuan, after you returned to the academy, did you rarely let out the little pug?”

“Yeah, other than letting it eat regularly and getting some fresh air in the room, I didn’t dare to let it out... especially the moment it was outside, it would run and disappear. If it got into trouble, I would be finished. How would I dare to let it out regularly!”

“This won’t do,” Bai Wushang shook his head. “The puppy is energetic and curious. That is its nature. You can’t forcefully suppress it.”

“It only destroyed your room today. But if you keep trying to suppress it, I’m afraid Pug might break the contract with you. Have you ever thought about it?”

“I... I know that too... but I can’t do anything about Pug...” Ouyang Yuan muttered to himself.

Bai Wushang reminded him, “If you really regret it, you might as well cancel the contract as soon as possible. This will be a relief for you and Pug.”

“You should have a small treasury, right? Go buy some suitable spiritual materials to speed up the repair of the Soul Seal, and then think of a way to buy a new pet beast. You’d be able to easily catch up with your new pet beast during this period.”

Ouyang Yuan frowned and was somewhat silent.

Even if the little pug was anything but good, it was still his first pet beast.

After spending so many days together, it would definitely be a lie to say that he had no feelings for it at all.

Bai Wushang glanced at Ouyang Yuan. He had a rough idea of what was going on. Thus, he straightforwardly said, “If you can’t bear to part with it, then make up your mind to train it well. You are its master, and this is your responsibility.”

“I have a few ideas at the moment. For example, you can buy new pet training equipment in large quantities on a regular basis to fully exhaust its energy.”

“The academy must have training halls, Colosseum, and other places. You should tour around the school, you can’t always stay in your room. The space is too small for any activities involving the puppy. It would be strange if your room wasn’t demolished.”

“Then... hmm, maybe we can get some sedative and sleeping potions for it? This idea is a little terrible. You can think about using this method when you really can’t take it anymore. It’s not a big issue to use it once in a while...”

Bai Wushang gave five or six ideas in a row as a reference.

The decadent look on Ouyang Yuan’s face gradually faded. He looked as though he was thinking about these ideas and they also seemed tempting to him.

The core idea of these suggestions still revolved around Pug’s two main characteristics.

It was not to suppress or ignore it. Instead, it was to activate and release Pug’s abilities to the greatest extent possible.

The result of doing this was bound to consume a lot of time, energy, and wealth. It was very likely that it would be for naught.

However, it seemed that this was the only way to get a chance to get used to the puppy and make it recognize him.

After hesitating for a long time, Ouyang Yuan gritted his teeth, and a hint of determination appeared in his eyes.

“Brother Bai, I’ll go to the mall in the afternoon to replenish my supplies and try out your methods!” said Ouyang Yuan.

“In that case, you’ll have to prepare yourself for a long battle,” Bai Wushang said with a smile. “When you are able to ride the puppy one day, it should be about time...”

“Cough...” Sha Buru listened as he ate. When he heard this, he couldn’t help but spit out his food.

“I ride Pug???”

Ouyang Yuan was slightly stunned. He tried to imagine it, but it didn’t seem real.

“Well it’s cool for sure, but it’s too dangerous. Let’s take it slow...”

At the dining table, the three of them talked about many things.

From their pet beasts, to what they had seen in the mystic realm, to the information they had gathered in the academy.

Bai Wushang gradually understood that the management system of Mountain and SeaAcademy was very strict.

For those who had passed the freshmen trial, the academy would give them initial recognition and treat them as ‘official members’.

Although... there would be new tests in the future and they might even be expelled at any time.

However, at least in the short term, as long as they did not break the academy’s rules, they could enjoy the resources of the academy and grow quickly.

This is exactly what Bai Wushuang needed.
