89: Chapter 89 The Drunken Leader, The Drunken Beast Tamer

Monday.

A day for working like a beast of burden.

Li Meng's special training time was extended, and she was still at Cuiyu Camp today.

Li Yu couldn't be bothered to make breakfast, so he went out and bought two large steamed pork buns. He held them and ate while walking, with Chen Qing following behind, also carrying a bun.

"You should eat too; it tastes better when you eat while walking."

"That's not good."

"Alright then."

Li Yu replied regretfully, with a sense of "you just don't know how to appreciate it." While walking, he accidentally bumped into someone and hurriedly apologized.

Chen Qing looked at him curiously: "Are you really a Senior Cultivator?"

"Don't I look like one?"

"No." Chen Qing thought for a moment and said, "You don't eat like one, you don't live like one, your commuting tool doesn't look like one, and your tone of voice is even less like one."

"Have you met other Senior Cultivators then?" Li Yu asked.

His Senior Cultivator qualification had come too quickly. He hadn't experienced the process of going from Junior to Intermediate to Senior, nor had he gone through countless test questions or accumulated a vast amount of cultivation experience.

Precisely because of this, his perception of a Senior Cultivator was just a Breeder with a higher job rank; there was nothing special about it.

But these past few days, from the primary school principal's fawning attitude upon seeing he was a Senior Cultivator, to the Thick Earth Mystic Realm where the arrogant captain of the Earth Battle Group was scared to the point of almost kneeling.

It was evident that a Senior Cultivator was far from as simple as he had imagined.

"I've met four, but they are very different from you."

"Oh? How are they different?"

"When they go out, they travel by car with several escort vehicles in front and behind. Besides their essential Guardians, they have a whole Beast Taming squad following them. They don't eat a breakfast for 600, they buy several villas and stay in a different one every day. They don't need to punch in; they work whenever they want. And they have beauties following them... you know."

Li Yu had stopped walking while she was speaking and was staring at her blankly.

"Is this an emperor traveling, or some noble lord going to the countryside? So extravagant!" Li Yu exclaimed in surprise.

"Also," Chen Qing said earnestly, "they are very arrogant. Like the scene just now, others should be the ones apologizing to them. There is no such thing as a Senior Cultivator apologizing."

"Fine, so they really are noble lords." Li Yu raised an eyebrow and took a big bite of his sauce-filled pork bun. "I can't learn those things you mentioned, but there is one thing I have that is better than them."

"For example?"

Li Yu pointed at Chen Qing, then looked at her legs: "The beauties around them are definitely not as good-looking or as capable as you."

Chen Qing was slightly stunned. By the time she came to her senses, Li Yu had already walked several steps away, his pace fast, looking like he was afraid of getting beaten up.

Back at Bright Moon Company.

Many colleagues had arrived on the Seventh Floor. Everyone greeted him when they saw him, and Li Yu responded. When passing by Zhou Ya, she wasn't at her desk, and her breakfast soy milk was still sitting there.

What could she be busy with early in the morning?

Li Yu, puzzled, returned to his office, turned on the machine, let out the fish, and also let the Spirit Probing Armor out for some air.

The two beasts behaved completely differently.

After the Golden Scale Bubble Fish came out, it blew two bubbles and then played on its own, not looking at Li Yu once the whole time, as if he were just a stranger of a keeper.

It even noticed Chen Qing's presence and went right up to her face. The two pairs of cold eyes stared at each other, refusing to look at Li Yu.

As soon as the Spirit Probing Armor came out, it immediately looked around. Upon seeing Li Yu, it jumped onto him, grabbed his clothes, and made a few whimper sounds, as if saying — I haven't seen you for many seconds already.

It also contributed 10 points of cultivation value.

Look at that, what is called a tamed beast?

This is what a tamed beast is!

Knock, knock, knock~

Zhou Ya walked in.

"Morning." Li Yu smiled.

"Morning," Zhou Ya nodded. "The people from the Rongrong Group are here, and there are quite a few of them."

"After all, it's for cultivating their leader's beast. It's normal for more people to come. You eat your breakfast, and then we'll head over."

Zhou Ya had a rather strange expression.

After Li Yu finished eating, the three of them headed to the Advanced Cultivation room. As they were about to arrive, Zhou Ya suddenly took out a mask and put it on, and took out two more to hand to Li Yu and Chen Qing.

"No need, I'll put it on when it's time for cultivation." Li Yu said, taking the mask and stuffing it into his pocket.

Chen Qing did the same.

Walking further, Zhou Ya slowed down and fell behind the two. Li Yu was in the lead and didn't notice, but Chen Qing saw it.

Chen Qing frowned slightly, scanned her suspiciously, and then...

She also slowed down.

Arriving at the door of the Advanced Cultivation room, Li Yu swiped his badge, and the door slowly opened. A strong smell of alcohol rushed out, so thick it felt like being inside a wine cellar.

Li Yu only took one breath, and his head immediately spun, a sense of drunkenness rising. He was horrified and hurriedly retreated.

"Who the hell is drinking in the Advanced Cultivation room!!!"

Li Yu shouted, and remembering the two girls following him, he hurriedly turned back, concerned.

"Are you guys okay... uh..."

He was dumbfounded.

Zhou Ya and Chen Qing were standing seven or eight meters away from the door, wearing masks, looking at him from afar.

"We're fine, don't worry." Zhou Ya said earnestly.

Chen Qing didn't speak, just blinked.

Li Yu: "...I'm so naive."

A world where only he gets hurt has been achieved.

After the alcohol smell dissipated a bit, Li Yu dragged Zhou Ya and Chen Qing into the cultivation room. In the reception room, a dozen people were either sitting or standing. Everyone had a flushed face, clearly from inhaling too much alcohol; they were tipsy.

Hearing the commotion, everyone turned their heads to look.

"Li Yu, you're here." The Doll Girl swayed over, wearing a pair of drunken eyes, holding the Lava Salamander like a body pillow against her chest, looking at Li Yu with a hopeless expression.

"Yeah, which one is your leader? Where is the beast that needs cultivation? And... why are you drinking here?" Li Yu threw out three questions in a row.

Hearing this, the Doll Girl made way, and the others also moved aside, revealing the scene on the sofa.

A tall, burly woman who looked like a "Muscle Barbie" was slumped on the reception sofa, her heavy frame causing the sofa to sink in.

She was drunk, snoring like thunder, and muttering "woo woo" in her mouth from time to time, like she was talking in her sleep.

Li Yu: "... This drunkard is the leader?"

The Doll Girl nodded: "Yes, this drunkard is."

Li Yu looked at the other reception sofa, where a beast slightly smaller than a calf, shaped like a Tyrannosaurus Rex, and completely red was lying down. The sofa had been crushed, and several legs of the sofa were broken.

This beast was also drunk, and the snoring it emitted was much louder than that of the drunken leader, making even the floor vibrate.

"This is her beast?"

"Yes."

"A perfect match."

"People and their beasts are alike," the Doll Girl said, now a bit more sober. "You know our situation. If the leader's Volcano Dragon can't be healed, being annexed and bullied by the Earth Battle Group is only a matter of time. The leader can't accept this result. She already loved to drink, and now she's even more immersed in the wine jar."

"So she doesn't know about this cultivation at all?"

"She knows, and she agreed, but she couldn't resist the alcohol, so we carried her and the Volcano Dragon over."

When the Doll Girl said this, her expression turned serious. She bowed deeply to Li Yu and said: "Regardless, please do your best. If you can heal the Volcano Dragon, all of us in the Rongrong Group will owe you a favor!"

Although the others still looked at Li Yu with some suspicion, the situation and the second-hand alcohol they had inhaled brought their emotions up, and they all bowed and shouted: "We're counting on you! Breeder!"

"Got it. Bring it over."

Li Yu turned around and opened the inner cultivation room, with Zhou Ya and Chen Qing following.
