Qiao Sang’s gaze grew resolute, and just as she was about to reject them, the Treasure-Seeking Ghost sensed her intentions.

It stepped back, pinched its own cheeks, and drooped the corners of its mouth, then floated in front of Qiao Sang. Large tears silently fell from its eyes.

This time, it didn’t make a sound, letting the tears flow freely.

Qiao Sang paused, instinctively feeling that it was up to some new trick. However, the Treasure-Seeking Ghost did nothing else.

It just reached out its hand as if to take the little Treasure-Seeking Ghost back.

The little Treasure-Seeking Ghost clung tightly to Qiao Sang\'s clothes with its tiny hands, turning its head in refusal.

"Seek-seek!"

The Treasure-Seeking Ghost called out hoarsely, sounding truly sorrowful.

The two staff members exchanged a knowing look.

"This Treasure-Seeking Ghost is its mother. It\'s doing this to make sure its child doesn’t stay in the pet base forever like it did." The middle-aged man said with a hint of sadness.

"But didn’t you just say the pet beast egg was reserved by someone?" Qiao Sang asked.

The middle-aged man: ...

"The Beastmaster who reserved it also reserved two other pet eggs. We’re not sure if they’re for personal use or gifts. It’s understandable that, as a mother, she wouldn’t want to hand her child over to someone unknown." Explained the blonde staff member.

Of course, that was a lie. He was just borrowing a story from another pet beast.

While this Treasure-Seeking Ghost wasn’t its mother, its goal was indeed to ensure that its kin wouldn’t remain trapped in the pet base like it had.

The male Treasure-Seeking Ghost, barely five years old, let its tears fall even faster, as if someone had hit the nail on the head.

Qiao Sang: ... Why didn’t she believe a word of it?

Seeing the girl remain unmoved, the middle-aged man tried another approach. "It’s been proven that Treasure-Seeking Ghosts can evolve to emperor level, while Cherry wood Cotton’s evolution stops at king level. Are you sure you don’t want to reconsider?"

This was a critical point.

An emperor-level pet beast corresponds to an A-rank Beastmaster’s strength, while a king-level pet beast is necessary for a B-rank Beastmaster.

Of course, even though Cherry wood Cotton’s species limit was at the king level, not every Beastmaster could raise it to that level.

Typically, a Beastmaster’s resources and energy are limited, and not all contracted pet beasts have top-tier potential.

Out of ten thousand Beastmasters who contract a Cherry wood Cotton, only one might be able to raise it to the king level.

Most Beastmasters wouldn’t focus on the species’ growth limits when contracting a Cherry wood Cotton, but Qiao Sang had to think about it.

Because she had a cheat.

With this cheat, she could potentially raise a pet beast with average talent to its species limit.

But whether the cheat could push a pet beast beyond its species limit, she didn’t know.

After all, surpassing a species limit and reaching a higher life stage was a topic that had been a research focus of the alliance for years. It wasn’t something that could be easily resolved.

Her original plan to contract a Cherry wood Cotton was to use its healing abilities to increase her chances of survival in the wild.

At the end of the day, her goal was to strengthen herself.

She had forgotten all about this when choosing her pet beast yesterday...

"What about the Water Lantern Crocodile?" Qiao Sang asked.

The middle-aged man: ...

He sighed inwardly.

This girl had a clear mind, and it was obvious she had already made her choice. It seemed the Treasure-Seeking Ghost had miscalculated this time.

"It’s also king level." The middle-aged man said earnestly.

"And the Mianmian Bird?" Qiao Sang asked.

"Also king level." The middle-aged man replied.

Qiao Sang seemed to be deep in thought.

It seemed her choices yesterday were a bit too hasty. Maybe she should go back and do more research…

Sensing it wasn’t chosen, the little Treasure-Seeking Ghost pursed its lips and started crying without warning.

This shocked the Treasure-Seeking Ghost, who forgot to keep up its act. It thought its earlier performance had been too convincing.

Qiao Sang’s gaze fell on the little Treasure-Seeking Ghost.

Although the Treasure-Seeking Ghost was a ghost-type pet beast, at least it wasn’t in the evil category.

If ghost-type pet beasts didn’t have such a mischievous nature or such quirky personalities, they would probably be a popular choice.

This little Treasure-Seeking Ghost looked soft and cute, nothing like its odd and unpredictable kin.

Just as this thought crossed her mind, the little Treasure-Seeking Ghost suddenly stopped crying, looking up at her with tear-filled eyes before letting out a sweet cry.

"Seek~"

Qiao Sang\'s expression turned strange.

Why did it feel like this little Treasure-Seeking Ghost could read her mind...?

After its sweet call, the little Treasure-Seeking Ghost looked toward the door, as if watching something.

Qiao Sang felt her heart tighten.

There was something unsettling about the little Treasure-Seeking Ghost’s behavior. She looked in the same direction but saw nothing.

"Miss, if you’re looking for a pet beast with a high species limit, perhaps Xiao Liu here can recommend some to you." the middle-aged man said.

The blonde staff member, Xiao Liu, nodded.

The Treasure-Seeking Ghost, realizing it wasn’t getting any help from the staff, pouted and tried to carry the little Treasure-Seeking Ghost away.

This time, the little Treasure-Seeking Ghost didn’t resist since its attention was still focused on the door.

Only after leaving Qiao Sang did it react, its lips trembling as it prepared to cry again.

Just then, the door suddenly opened.

"Miss, why are you here?" A female staff member asked as she entered, looking at Qiao Sang.

"Yue!"

The Blue Delight Butterfly, which had been quiet all this time, happily flew over to the female staff member.

Qiao Sang stared blankly at the woman who had just entered, not answering.

The Treasure-Seeking Ghost, holding the little Treasure-Seeking Ghost, had already floated to the doorway.

"Wait!" Qiao Sang suddenly called out.

The Treasure-Seeking Ghost stopped and turned, pointing uncertainly at itself.

"Treasure?"

"Yes, don’t leave just yet." Qiao Sang said.

The Treasure-Seeking Ghost’s eyes lit up, and it zipped back immediately.

The little Treasure-Seeking Ghost, eyes still shimmering with tears, looked at her.

Qiao Sang could feel her heart racing.

She was nervous and excited, but her face remained calm.

"How much for this little Treasure-Seeking Ghost?"

All three people in the room were surprised.

"76,000." The middle-aged man said.

Qiao Sang didn’t speak but furrowed her brow slightly.

"I can give you a 20% discount." The middle-aged man quickly added.

"40%." Qiao Sang countered.

The middle-aged man was both surprised and pleased.

Though he didn’t know what had changed her mind, her haggling showed she was serious about buying the little Treasure-Seeking Ghost.

But this price cut was quite harsh...

Before he could respond, Qiao Sang pulled out a voucher from her pocket and placed it on the table.

"This is a 500,000-value pet egg voucher. The little Treasure-Seeking Ghost was still in its egg, but the Treasure-Seeking Ghost deliberately broke the egg in front of me to scam me. You invited me to this office because you wanted me to buy it."

"My Fire fang Dog was also bought here, so I’m a regular customer. This whole situation has been disappointing."

"When we checked the surveillance, those three ghost-type pet beasts weren’t blocking the cameras for the first time either. It wouldn’t be good if word got out about this. If possible, I’ll trade this voucher for the little Treasure-Seeking Ghost, and I’ll keep what happened here to myself."

"Oh, and I forgot to mention, I earned this voucher for placing first in the Bai Xin Competition, which just ended yesterday. You’ve heard of it, right? If I speak up about something now, quite a few people would pay attention."

The Treasure-Seeking Ghost was stunned.

The middle-aged man: ...

Weren’t they the ones trying to sell the little Treasure-Seeking Ghost?

Why did it feel like they now had no choice but to sell it...?

Twenty minutes later.

Qiao Sang left the Hanggang Pet Beast Base, carrying her Fire fang Dog in her arms and with the little Treasure-Seeking Ghost resting on her head.
