“Sir, there’s one more thing.”
Xu Ran pointed at the price list on the wall, “Your pet belongs to medium-sized pet beasts, the cleaning and care price is 26666 yuan per session.”
A dog as tall as a person, would undoubtedly be considered a large pet in the previous world, but in this pet beast world, it has a long way to become a large pet beast.
“26666 Yuan?!” Liu Gu’s eyes widened, “Young boss, are you kidding?”
Although he wanted to help his pet beast partner, he could not accept this price.
Love for a dog is not worth this much.
“I take my leave!” Liu Gu shook his head and was about to walk away, “Doggy, we are trying another shop!”
“Woof?!”
The Wind Lion Dog panicked.
For some reason, it felt like if it left at that moment, it might lose the most important opportunity in its life.
The Wind Lion dog stayed put, hanging onto Liu Gu’s clothing with trembling excitement, refusing to leave.
Having high-level intelligence as an elite stage pet beast, it knew that its owner thought the price was high.
But thinking about the fact it could earn tens of thousands from the materials of a Transcendent Being of the same stage on the battlefield, the Wind Lion Dog let out two howls.
“Woof! Woof!” (Let’s stay here! I’ll work hard to kill more beings of the same stage next time!)
“You…” Liu Gu locked eyes with his pet beast, shaking his head helplessly.
Thinking about the ups and downs he had with the Wind Lion Dog, he conceded.
“Young boss, you’d better make my money worthwhile!”
Liu Gu hummed and then paid by scanning the QR code.
“About that, don’t worry.” Xu Ran reassured the scaredy-cat that has been hiding in the corner, “Speaking of which, your pet beast doesn’t have any temperament problems, right?”
Giving such a big pet a bath, he was a bit hesitant.
“Don’t worry.” Liu Gu patted his chest, “It has a good temperament! The dog didn’t even fight with its love rival when its lover was taken away.”
“Woof!”
The Wind Lion Dog was so angry, it swiped a paw at its Beast Master.
Why were they bringing up his past failures?
Then, it looked at Xu Ran with hopeful eyes.
At last, it’s time for grooming and care!
It wondered if it would look more handsome than that hateful guy after the grooming.
This is a dog with a story.
Seeing the owner and pet playfully bickering, Xu Ran nodded, “In that case, pet, follow me. The Beast Master can accompany, or wait in the lounge over there.”
“I’ll wait in the lounge.” Liu Gu said without a second thought.
What’s there to watch about a dog taking a bath?
The lounge has a television, gaming consoles, and snacks. Isn’t it more enjoyable waiting there?
The Wind Lion Dog wagged its tail indifferently without considering its Beast Master.
It followed Xu Ran towards the grooming room cheerfully.
The little kitty slowly returned to its previous position, watching the door, only after the Wind Lion Dog disappeared.
Now that the crap shoveling officer was gone, the shop was under its protection!

[To increase the effect of this wash, the system will grant the host knowledge of “Canine Pet Beast Care Basics” and “Wind Pet Beast Care Basics”].
After accepting the relevant knowledge, Xu Ran, looking at the Wind Lion Dog that had already obediently climbed onto the care platform, started to preheat the shower head and add suitable resources for the wind pet beast to the water tank.
Moments later, Xu Ran picked up the shower head when its indicator light turned green, and started spraying Wind Lion Dog.
[Wind Lion Dog’s Pleasure Value +5]
Xu Ran fell into thought.
He had only wetted the fur of the Wind Lion Dog.
Could this guy be pleased so easily?
Xu Ran turned to look at the Wind Lion Dog.
The Wind Lion Dog looked back with expectant eyes, with a hint of timidity.
You’re acting coy in front of me!
The fur plucking starts now!
Xu Ran first simply combed the Wind Lion Dog with a wide-toothed comb to remove the solidified chunks of blood and flesh that clung to its fur, then began to apply degreasing products on it.
The stubborn dirt on its fur, darkened in some patches and gray in others, began to loosen up with the rubbing and the application of the degreasing product. After a rinse, they fell off, washing away with the flow of water.
Looking at the grey-black water flowing into the drain and the Wind Lion Dog’s fur beginning to turn blue, Xu Ran experienced a strange satisfaction.
With the continuous appearance of words in front of him, this satisfaction became even stronger.
[Pleasure Value from the Wind Lion Dog +10]
[Pleasure Value from the Wind Lion Dog +10]
[Pleasure Value from…]
The Wind Lion Dog lay relaxingly on the care platform, its muscular and strong body seeming to disappear.
It squinted its eyes, feeling its body growing lighter as the grooming process continued.
At this moment, it felt as though the wind was calling it.
After washing away the oil with clean water, Xu Ran spread the well-prepared shampoo over the Wind Lion Dog’s fur. Then he gently massaged every part, allowing the shampoo to cleanse deeply into the hair pores.
The Wind Lion Dog’s body suddenly shuddered.
This feeling…
It felt every hair pore cheering, enjoying the reinvigorating comfort.
It felt as if it had become part of the wind, dancing with it.
The Wind Lion Dog looked up at the sky with blurry eyes, and a vague sound came out from its throat.
“Ao~~~”
—————–
In the Beast Master’s resting room, Liu Gu, who was hugging a bag of chips looking at funny programs on TV, heard this strange sound and shuddered.
What the fuck?
He naturally recognized that voice was from his buddy he spent days and nights with.
However, why did it feel strange?
No, he had to see it for himself!
Liu Gu walked out of the resting room quickly and pushed the door open into the grooming room.
“Are you okay boy? You…” As Liu Gu got a clear view of the situation inside the grooming room, he blinked.
“Ao Wang~” (I’m fine!)
The Wind Lion Dog’s voice was a bit strange.
“Are you sure you’re okay?” Liu Gu asked suspiciously.
“Ao Wang~ Ao~~” (I’m fine, just…the pet beast grooming felt too…comfortable!)
“Do you need me to bring you a chair to sit by the side and accompany it?” Xu Ran asked empathetically, pausing his grooming.
“No need!” Liu Gu shook his head.
After seeing his pet beast was all right, he felt relieved.
“You keep going, young boss. Good work!”
He slowly closed the door to the grooming room.
“Not hard at all. My pleasure.”
Xu Ran politely nodded and continued his motion of massaging.
[Pleasure Value from the Wind Lion Dog +20]
[Pleasure Value from the Wind Lion Dog +20]
[Pleasure Value from…]
The pleasure value provided by the Wind Lion Dog was noticeably more than that of the previous Flame Fox.
Xu Ran wasn’t sure if it was because the grooming needs of the Wind Lion Dog were higher or because the Wind Lion Dog was one rank higher – at the Elite Stage – than the Transcendent Stage.
Xu Ran looked at the Wind Lion Dog in front of him like it was a cash machine, his eyes filled with tenderness.
—————–
“Is this… my pet beast?!”
When Xu Ran came out of the grooming room with the fresh-looking Wind Lion Dog, Liu Gu widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.
This large fellow, whose each and every strand of fur was soft, elegant, and shimmering in the light, bearing a gradient of light blue as if it was the embodiment of grace and power, was his pet beast?!
“Thank you for your patronage. We look forward to seeing you again.”
“Will…will do.”
Liu Gu hadn’t snapped back to reality, he led the Wind Lion Dog confusedly out of the shop.
This is his pet beast?
Could his dog be this cool?
The Wind Lion Dog followed behind the Beast Master, looking back every three steps, its face full of reluctance.
