Chapter 243: Chapter 64: If Bean Chicken Trained for Two and a Half Years, Part 2

Run Run Duck leaned against the camphor tree and fell asleep, with messy feathers dangling with dew, hanging its head down. Beside it, Cola gradually opened its eyes but was worried about waking Run Run Duck, so it stayed laying still like a plank.

When the first rays of sunlight broke free from the clouds, the chicken coop exploded into action.

Round, plump little chicks squeezed out of the coop, flapping their wings and dashing toward the yard, while Bean Chicken strolled slowly at the back.

"Cluck cluck cluck~"

The chicken cluck woke up Electric Flying Cat, who jerked upright, blinking its sleepy eyes.

Morning light dripped across the yard; Run Run Duck finally opened half an eye and slowly got up.

"Woof woof!"

Cola finally managed to move its stiff body and ran several laps around the yard.

The gentle sunlight fell upon Run Run Duck, which squinted its eyes and stood quietly in place, basking in the sun for a while before leisurely walking to the fish pond.

It leaped into the fish pond, waking up the slumbering Wave Pattern Salmon; water droplets flicked from the fish’s tail splashed onto the shore, just happening to wet Cola, who was trailing behind Run Run Duck.

"Woof woof woof!"

Cola barked at Wave Pattern Salmon, which swiftly twisted its body and dove underwater.

As Run Run Duck jumped into the fish pond, the splashing water shattered the light and shadow, creating layers of golden ripples.

Run Run Duck swam joyfully while tidying up its messy feathers.

When the sun’s rim fully emerged over the mountain peak, the morning breeze carried the aroma of food from the kitchen.

Chen Yuan pushed open the wooden window and saw Run Run Duck basking on a big rock; Cola chasing the little chicks but was driven away by Bean Chicken; Electric Flying Cat nibbling on an apple in the yard; Fallen Meteor Horned Beast trotting inside the farm, its shadow elongated by the sunlight.

The furious battle and smoke from last night have dissolved into the warmth of the autumn sun.

Coming to the hall for breakfast, Chen Yuan asked concernedly, "Grandpa, is the Cold-Biting Ox alright?"

"It’s alright, already awake," Chen Weiyi smiled.

Had it not been for the timely intervention of Cold-Biting Ox last night, he could have faced danger.

Chen Yuan nodded, "That’s good."

Keeping this Cold-Biting Ox was a right choice; it accompanies the old man and can handle many emergencies.

After breakfast, Chen Yuan called the little ones to him, his face showing a smile, "I’ve already heard about last night’s events."

"Iron Head."

"Ka!"

"Your discovery was very timely and ranks first in the defense of the farm."

Iron Head’s expression was calm, shaking its head slightly, as if it was just a trivial matter.

To it, this was simply its duty, not worthy of credit.

Yet Chen Yuan’s eyes were full of admiration.

He had checked Iron Head’s data panel, and after the battle last night, Iron Head successfully broke through to Tier Two.

From now on, the farm’s security power has been greatly enhanced.

"Duck Duck."

"Quack quack!"

A pair of light blue big eyes immediately looked at Chen Yuan, waving its wings, full of anticipation.

No need to praise Duck Duck, just give out the reward!

Spirit Fish!

I want Spirit Fish!

Run Run Duck had heard from Cola about the adventure into the mountains, and the very large Spirit Fish made it drool.

Run Run Duck’s unexpected reaction made Chen Yuan pause, then he spread his hands, smiling, "The Spirit Fish has already been eaten."

"Next time, definitely next time."

That Spirit Fish was indeed huge, but Mr. Xiong and Fallen Meteor Horned Beast also had astonishing appetites.

"Electric Flying Cat."

"Dian Dian!"

Like Iron Head, after the intense battle last night, Electric Flying Cat’s strength has already broken through to Tier Two.

Clearly, battle has an immediate impact on improving the strength of Pet Beast.

Especially for Iron Head and Electric Flying Cat, who are both nearly perfect Tier One Pet Beasts, maybe one fierce fight can lead to a direct breakthrough.

"Don’t worry about the scars on your face; they’ll fade in a few days," Chen Yuan said.

From the old man’s words, Chen Yuan learned that Electric Flying Cat was particularly concerned about the scars on its face, worried that they would remain forever and affect its happiness in the latter half of life.

"Dian Dian!"

Hearing this, Electric Flying Cat’s eyes lit up.

It doesn’t need a reward, as long as it won’t affect its chances of finding another Electric Flying Cat.

"Bean Chicken."

"Cluck cluck~"

Chen Yuan looked at the Bean Chicken leading a group of little chicks and gave a thumbs up: "You are the strongest Bean Chicken."

Compared to the other little creatures, the Bean Chicken lacked powerful attack skills, flexibility, and a body as tough as steel.

Chen Yuan had only heard that the eggs laid by the Bean Chicken were very beneficial to the human body, but had never heard of a Beastmaster contracting a Bean Chicken.

The combat strength of the Bean Chicken was evident.

But as long as there was a flock of chicks behind, it dared to attack any enemy.

This was a Bean Chicken that defeated a Snow Cloud Wolf alone, truly the king of chickens.

If trained for another two and a half years, Chen Yuan could hardly imagine how strong the Bean Chicken would become.

Chen Yuan wasn’t just verbally rewarding the little creatures; he walked to a seedling of the Void Fruit Tree, focused his thoughts, and directly invested twelve Source Points, causing a tall fruit tree to spring up.

A gentle breeze blew through, rustling the leaves, and the golden fruits attracted every little creature’s gaze.

"Aww aww aww!"

Cola excitedly jumped in place, eager enough to sprout wings and bite into a Void Fruit.

The Electric Flying Cat, with its wings, had already flown to a Void Fruit, tightly grasping it with its paws and pulling it down with all its might.

"Drop it."

The Electric Flying Cat was about to start eating when it heard the farmer’s voice, reluctantly glanced at the Void Fruit, and dropped it.

The tree bore nine Void Fruits, just enough for each little creature.

Before long,

all the little creatures gathered round, chewing on the delicious Void Fruits.

No one made a sound as they quietly enjoyed their meal.

Looking at the little creatures, Chen Yuan began to smile, while a question arose in his heart: "Why didn’t the Violent Cloud Sparrows notice the group of Snow Cloud Wolves?"

The Violent Cloud Sparrows had long promised to keep an eye on the surroundings of Xuanhe Village and immediately alert when any wild Pet Beasts intruded.

But now it seemed the Violent Cloud Sparrows only paid lip service.

As for the Fire Patterned Snakes, that was understandable since these Pet Beasts hid in the grass and were indeed hard to spot.

But how could Mr. Xiong and the Bear Cub swagger into Xuanhe Village without the Violent Cloud Sparrows noticing?

The Snow Cloud Wolves were lurking around the farm, yet they hadn’t been discovered either?

Shaking his head, Chen Yuan couldn’t help but sigh: "Indeed, relying on them is useless; I still have to depend on the little creatures on the farm."

Thinking of the violent Larks, Chen Yuan couldn’t help but recall the absent Gray Feathered Hunting Eagle.

This fellow challenged Spark multiple times after being defeated, ultimately bowing to Spark and willingly becoming a subordinate.

But this little brother hasn’t appeared for quite some time.

Where did it go?

Just as Chen Yuan was deep in thought, his phone buzzed with a notification:

[Your Shunfeng Express has arrived at Xuanhe Village... Please use the pickup code 2–4–4396 to collect your package]

"Express delivery?" Chen Yuan mumbled softly, and then his eyes lit up, "The resources for Duck and Iron Head to advance have arrived."

Several days ago, Chen Yuan had asked Zhou Xu to exchange for the advancement resources for the two little ones, and he hadn’t expected them to arrive so quickly.

Wonderful, now the overall strength of the farm is truly about to undergo an earth-shaking transformation.

"Fallen Meteor Horned Beast, come with me to the street to pick up the delivery." Chen Yuan mounted the Fallen Meteor Horned Beast.

"Aww aww!"

Cola eagerly followed behind, running along the country path.

As the Fallen Meteor Horned Beast gradually walked into the village street, passersby cast curious glances.

Upon seeing the figure on the Fallen Meteor Horned Beast’s back, the locals quickly looked away, while the visiting Beastmasters stared intently at Chen Yuan, sparking discussions.

Chen Yuan paid them no mind, directing the Fallen Meteor Horned Beast straight to the courier station.

"Advisor Chen, please wait."

Suddenly, a stranger’s voice called from behind.

Chen Yuan stopped the Fallen Meteor Horned Beast and turned to see a middle-aged man he had never met before, carrying a bag of fruit.

Behind him followed two figures, one tall and one short.

"Advisor Chen, thank you for saving me last night. These fruits are for you."

Chen Yuan instinctively wanted to refuse, but then Zhao San’s loud voice boomed like a market vendor: "If you don’t accept these fruits, I’ll dream of being chased by that Earth Bear tonight."

Behind Zhao San, Little Zhao also chimed in, "Mr. Chen, please accept them!"

Before Chen Yuan could respond, Zhao San put the fruits into the saddlebags on the sides of the Fallen Meteor Horned Beast, patting his chest with a bang: "Don’t worry, these fruits are homegrown, guaranteed fresh."

Cola sniffed the aroma, leaped up to bite one, and the juice dripped to the ground from its mouth.

Chen Yuan looked at the trembling saddlebags on the back of the Fallen Meteor Horned Beast and suddenly felt that this token of thanks was much more genuine than the plaque from the Beast Taming Association.
