The True Young Master Saves the Soul Pet World by Eating Melons – CH77

Chapter 77: Mianmian

Listening to Guagua’s description, Si Er felt that the Bright Sacred Longevity Turtle was very laid-back—just like himself.

If the two of them formed a contract, they would definitely have plenty in common.

Although that “common ground” might just be zZZ…

Still, Si Er wondered whether he should find a soul pet capable of strong offensive output.

I feel like every one of Xuanxuan’s soul pets is great at fighting. But among my current three, Benben is basically a lighter and a mount.

Cuicui is for healing, and Guagua is for gossip. It seems like none of them can really fight?

Yu Beixuan, Si Xu, and Lu Taiping all fell silent at those words. Had Si Er forgotten the scene at Jade Moss Swamp, when Cuicui commanded a horde of mushrooms to smash a group of giant-toothed crocodiles until they saw stars?

Those crocodiles had incredibly thick hides!

And he called that “none of them can fight”?

If that counted as not being able to fight, they all wished their own soul pets were that “weak.”

Even Guagua was speechless.

[What do you mean none of us can fight? All three of us can fight just fine!]

[I’m super strong! However strong you are, I’m just as strong—because we’ve eaten the same amount of Power Watermelons!]

[And I’m just as fast as you too, because we’ve eaten the same amount of Whirlwind Cucumbers.]

[If I’m this strong and this fast, how can I not be able to fight?]

[Didn’t you say it yourself? “In martial arts, speed is unbeatable!” And “One force can overcome ten techniques!”]

Si Er stroked his chin thoughtfully.

“But I feel like I can’t fight. If you’re exactly like me, then you probably can’t either, right?”

Guagua was even more shocked.

[Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about yourself? If it’s pure hand-to-hand combat without using spiritual power or soul pet skills, who could beat you?]

[Even Yu Beixuan probably couldn’t!]

[Unless it’s a powerful body cultivator or a soul pet master whose soul pet has an exceptionally strong physical body, no one in this world has more raw strength than you!]

[And even if someone has more strength, they’re not faster than you! In that regard, you’re still win!]

“I’m that strong?”

Si Er simply couldn’t believe it.

He hadn’t been in this world very long. Although he had accepted its setting in his heart, his self-perception was still stuck in the past.

A newly graduated, clear-eyed and slightly foolish college boy.

Someone like that was obviously a weakling. How could he possibly be so strong?

Guagua couldn’t be bothered to correct him anymore.

[If you insist on thinking you’re a weakling, I can’t help that.]

[But can you at least be weak on your own? Don’t drag the rest of us down with you.]

[I think I’m very strong. Once I cultivate to level seven, I could kick down a small hill with one stomp.]

What about now?

[I can stomp out a huge crater on the spot. Want to see?]

No thanks. If you make a crater, won’t I have to pay for it? I’m not falling into your trap.

[Hmph! And Cuicui is also very powerful—not only can he heal, he can summon a whole mushroom squad to fight!]

[Being able to fight in groups already gives you half the advantage. And many of the mushrooms he summons have hallucinogenic effects. Even if they can’t kill the enemy, they can make them temporarily lose combat ability.]

[And Benben—that’s a high-grade superior soul pet!]

[It can fan wind and ignite flames. There are clearly many skills waiting for you to develop—you’re just lazy and haven’t tried.]

Si Er couldn’t help retorting.

I have thought about it. I just haven’t taken action.

[So you’re still lazy!]

Nonsense. I just have a bit of procrastination!

I’m a young, handsome, good guy. I don’t smoke, don’t drink, don’t gamble, and I’m not lecherous! What’s wrong with having a little procrastination?

Oh? Er’er isn’t lecherous?

Yu Beixuan touched his handsome face and, unexpectedly, felt a bit regretful.

[How can you say that? You’re obviously a face-con! If someone’s good-looking, you give them extra patience. If they’re not, you can’t even remember them.]

Guagua was thoroughly disdainful.

Liking good looks is called being appearance-oriented, not lecherous. I just appreciate beauty—I’m not thinking about anything indecent. How can that be called lecherous?

[Forget it. I’m not arguing with you.]

Guagua realized he couldn’t win and immediately retreated from the battlefield.

[Give me a straight answer. Are you contracting that Bright Sacred Longevity Turtle egg or not?]

“Yes, I’ll contract it. After all, it’s long-lived.”

“Since you three can all fight, it’s fine if this one’s a little laid-back.”

Happily, Si Er extended a contract invitation to the ninety-nine-year-old Bright Sacred Longevity Turtle egg. The other party accepted immediately. The contract was completed smoothly—almost unbelievably so.

After the contract was formed, the egg automatically shrank and fell into Si Er’s palm.

The egg was pure, lustrous white—like a fine bead of mutton-fat jade. It felt smooth and cool like real jade, and Si Er couldn’t put it down.

“How about I call you Yuyu? It feels especially fitting.”

He assumed the egg couldn’t answer him. To his surprise, a soft, babyish voice sounded in his mind.

“Do you really like reduplicated names that much?”

Si Er blinked and nodded. Yes. Don’t you think doubled names sound more intimate?

The Bright Sacred Longevity Turtle inside the shell replied honestly, Not really. But if it has to be doubled, can I choose a different name?

Of course! I’m very open-minded. Si Er nodded again. What would you like to be called?

“Mianmian. I like sleeping.”

That works. Si Er gently stroked the egg again. Mianmian sounds very cute.

“Okay. Then I’ll go back to sleep.”

It was still an unhatched baby and needed plenty of rest to build up energy.

After saying that, there was no more sound. Through the contract, Si Er sensed a string of zZZ…

He fell silent.

What excellent sleep quality. I’m envious.

[Nothing to envy. Most turtles are lazy—they basically have the skill ‘retract head and sleep.’]

[Turtles’ philosophy is that life lies in stillness. No one is better at being still than they are.]

Nice, nice. I’d like to be that good at being still too.

[Come on. There are still so many high-quality turtles here. Don’t you want to pick another?]

No need. I don’t like raising duplicate little animals.

If they were ordinary pets, it wouldn’t matter. But soul pets consume soul power. It’s better to diversify.

And I’ve already contracted four soul pets. Including this unhatched egg, that makes five once it hatches.

I’ll raise these five well first. The rest can wait.

It feels like I’ve already exceeded my soul pet master rank with this number.

[It’s fine. Er’er was born with strong soul power. These five won’t burden you.]

That’s good.

Si Er’s gaze drifted back to the Chaos Devouring Turtle.

Sigh. That turtle is also my ideal type—long-lived and powerful. What a pity. We’re not fated.

I hope that one day it finds its ideal companion and won’t be lonely anymore.
