60: Take away [no more progress]
The big fish was very fast and could fly in a straight line, so the return journey was much quicker than by car.
As they approached the city, Su Yuan stood up on the back of the big fish, so that the soldiers in the watchtower could see clearly.
If it were an ordinary Vicious Beast, it would not be allowed to approach the city.
Once it got close, it would need to be driven away, and if it ignored the warning three times, it would be shot and killed.
"Don't be nervous, it's just the searchlights, they're just looking at us."
Indeed, as they neared the city, searchlights from the watchtowers in the farmland shone on them.
Su Yuan sensed some tension from Little Fish and quickly reassured her.
After a while, the searchlight finally moved away, seemingly reluctantly.
"Normally, it wouldn't shine for so long."
"This time, I guess they're trying to get a good look at what this thing is!"
Su Yuan chuckled inwardly.
A fish with wings that could fly—everyone must have been stunned.
Entering the city didn't involve a broad city wall, but defensive facilities were numerous.
Searchlights swept over them from time to time.
"Puff puff!"
Little Fish let out twodissatisfied puffs.
Each time, the searchlight lingered on her for a long time, and she was getting a little annoyed.
"Alright, alright, next time we won't return to the city at night!"
By this time, it was already dark.
If it were daytime, searchlights wouldn't be needed; normal vision would be enough to see clearly.
"But I have to say, Little Fish's head-turning rate is still too high!"
A flying fish—few would guess that this was the legendary Akun!
They probably all thought it was a 'Six-Eyed Flying Fish'!
Finally, they passed the city entrance area.
There were no more searchlights after that, but as they flew through the sky, it inevitably caused a flurry of exclamations.
"It's actually very rare to have the Opportunity to tame a King of Beast Taming."
Su Yuan flew all the way home.
When they reached the entrance of the residential area, he finally jumped down from a-kun ho.
Then he quickly caught the little furball that was about to jump down with him.
"Alright, you should also shrink, turn back into your previous appearance!" Su Yuan said, holding the little furball.
"Puff!"
Upon hearing this, Little Fish's body immediately deflated like a balloon, quickly shrinking into an ordinary Little Flying Fish.
"Let's go, follow me, we'll go home together!"
"Remember, if you ever get lost, remember the way home!"
Su Yuan held the little furball in his arms, and the Little Flying Fish circled above his head.
"Oh, it's Xiao Yuan, what is this...?"
"What is this thing?"
"Isn't that Xiao Yuan? What are these things next to you?"
Having lived there for several years, many people in the community were familiar with him.
People greeted him from time to time.
"I bought two small pets, taking them home to raise..." Su Yuan casually explained.
He rushed home and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mom, Older Sister, look what I brought back!" Su Yuan shouted as he pushed open the door.
"I told you to come back early, why are you so late again today? I couldn't even reach you on the phone!"
His mother started a string of nagging before even seeing him.
When she saw him, she exclaimed in surprise:
"Oh my, where did you bring these from? Isn't one little Bamboo Rat enough at home? It ate a lot today."
Jiang Pei looked curiously at the little furball in Su Yuan's hand and the Little Flying Fish on his shoulder.
"You brought two at once... but you're right, this little guy is really cute!"
She was captivated by the little furball after just one glance, taking the little guy from Su Yuan's hand and cuddling it affectionately.
"They're all very cute."
Su Yuan quickly brought water, taking care of Akun's mood.
"Xiao Yuan, you brought another little beast home?!"
Su Yu, holding the small Bamboo Rat, also walked out of the room.
"Wow, so cute!"
As expected, upon seeing the little furball, Older Sister immediately changed her affection.
She reluctantly looked at the cute small Bamboo Rat in her hand, then placed it on the sofa and went over to the little furball, fussing over it.
She kept stroking the little guy's big belly.
"It's okay, we're cute too!"
Su Yuan turned to comfort the Little Flying Fish.
Fortunately, this little guy wasn't so sentimental, or perhaps she simply didn't care about the opinions of people she didn't care about; she just curiously observed the room's furnishings from the side.
Su Yuan finally relaxed.
Seeing his mother and Older Sister teasing the little furball, too busy to notice his actions, he took out the curved long spear from his space.
He hoped this lucky long spear could truly bring him some luck!
Because he was about to do something he had been thinking about for a long time!
"Hoo!"
Su Yuan took a deep breath!
"Taking Advantage of an Opportunity!"
He was preparing to take away the 'No Further Progress' from his mother. If successful, his mother would be able to Cultivate in the future!
His mother currently had three terms in total.
The first was the red-Ranked 'A Thousand Miles in a Day', which could accelerate Cultivation speed, improving A Thousand Miles in a Day.
The second was a blue-Ranked movement-type term called 'Graceful as a Swimming Dragon'.
The third was the gray term 'No Further Progress'.
This term was what caused his mother, a Genius girl, to fall from grace overnight, unable to Cultivate again, with her Cultivation making No Further Progress!
"Hoo! I hope I can draw it in one go!"
He certainly didn't want to miss 'No Further Progress' and instead steal his mother's 'A Thousand Miles in a Day'.
His 'Emperors Bearing' was not inferior to 'A Thousand Miles in a Day' in terms of Cultivation speed.
"Hoo!"
Su Yuan set his mother as the target for 'Taking Advantage of an Opportunity', and there was no movement.
Su Yuan's mind stirred.
Another term appeared on his term panel.
"It's already stolen!"
There was no movement, and his mother didn't feel anything.
Su Yuan put the lucky long spear back into the space jade pendant.
"I hope I didn't steal the wrong one!"
"A thirty-three percent chance—if I still steal the wrong one, I won't use this broken spear anymore!"
He muttered to himself.
He looked at his unsuspecting mother and Older Sister, who were still teasing the little furball.
Su Yuan returned to his room with the Little Flying Fish.
"Hoo!"
With a nervous heart, he opened his term panel and anxiously looked at the term page.
