Chapter 515: Yu Qiqi

*Swoosh!*

The Four-eared Amber Cat sprinted from the park and landed right at Xia Fei’s feet.

At the side, the expression on Yu Qiqi’s face was very peculiar, appearing to be shivering badly, sneaking peeks at the ugly cat with a pale face.

“Listen here; from today onward, this lady will be your mistress. You must listen to everything she says no matter what!” Xia Fei instructed the Four-eared Amber Cat loudly.

The strange-looking cat hurriedly nodded. Accepting someone as mistress would allow it to get far away from Xia Fei and the terrifying Holy beast Shatterstar—an outcome that the Four-eared Amber Cat could hardly wait to happen.

Yu Qiqi’s little face turned green because the Four-eared Amber Cat had turned to look at her.

The two attendants were also quite afraid since Yu Qiqi was hiding behind them, but they were only afraid that their mistress would blame them, so they had no choice but to grit their teeth and stand their ground.

“Go,” Xia Fei ordered, setting the cat off to go diving right for Yu Qiqi.

It was very glad to do so, but it was too bad that the Four-eared Amber Cat was truly too ugly, so no matter how hard it tried to warm up to its new mistress, all anyone could see was ferocity and savagery!

“Ahhhhh!”

Yu Qiqi and her attendants all hugged each other and let out their terrified wails!

The Four-eared Amber Cat felt that something was off, so it tried to lick her ankle. Given how sunny the weather was, Yu Qiqi had opted to wear a short dress, which exposed her calves.

This lick was super effective, though not in the way the cat had expected. Yu Qiqi’s wailing increased in intensity as tears began falling freely. Her two attendants were not faring any better, so the three girls all just hugged one another, crying such that any onlooker could not help but feel their hair stand.

Xia Fei was perplexed, wondering to himself, ‘You’re the one who wants this hideous-looking cat, so why are you crying now?’

Yu Sansui came dashing out to the back, barely catching his breath. The man had of course heard the cries that Yu Qiqi was letting out, which was when he suddenly recalled the show he had arranged would soon be exposed; thus, he quickly hurried over.

“Overseer! Quick call the Four-eared Amber Cat back!” called Yu Sansui anxiously.

He really wanted to demonstrate his manliness and help save Miss Qi, but his fear of the Four-eared Amber Cat unfortunately made his heart tremble, and he did not dare even to get near it at all.

“Why?” Xia Fei could vaguely sense the strangeness of the situation, so he arched his eyebrow and asked quizzically. “Miss Qi likes the Four-eared Amber Cat, so why is she crying now?”

“N-No no no…”

Yu Sansui experienced becoming tongue-tied in his anxiety to speak, and before he could even properly formulate a sentence, Xia Fei loudly called, “I get it. Four-eared Amber Cat, you need to be more affectionate with your mistress!”

*Pa!*

The Four-eared Amber Cat received its orders and went leaping, landing easily on Yu Qiqi’s shoulder, licking Miss Qi’s head of hair.

This was akin to stabbing the hornet’s nest as Yu Qiqi suddenly let out a sound similar to the cry of a dolphin. Despite the lady looking very petite and proper, she had a very high-pitched voice, which made it such that people ten miles away could all hear her screams.

*Slap slap slap!*

Yu Sansui sent a series of slaps to himself, blurting out incoherently as he admitted his mistake.

Xia Fei saw that his chance was upon him, so he called the Four-eared Amber Cat back and had it lay waiting by the corner of the wall.

“Miss Qi, just what is going on here? You’d better explain yourself.”

Yu Qiqi was carried over to sit on a stone bench as her two attendants and Yu Sansui attended to her.

It took some time before she calmed herself down. Yu Qiqi used a handkerchief to wipe her tears away as she told Xia Fei of how Yu Sansui had sought her out and came up with a plan to embarrass Xia Fei.

Yu Sansui sweated bullets as he heard her account. Yu Qiqi was a stubborn and wilful young lady of the family, so after having had her ego beaten, she pushed all the blame onto Yu Sansui’s lap, but Yu Sansui still had no way of refuting this accusation. Everyone knew Miss Qi’s nickname as the demoness, and offending her meant that they would most likely suffer a fate worse than death.

Hearing Yu Qiqi giving her tearful account, XIa Fei more or less knew about the whole situation.

Sighing, he said emotionlessly, “Miss Qi, if that’s the case, you should head back. Do less pranks in the future.”

His tone was quite cold; the apple of Patriarch Yujiang’s eye Yu Qiqi would of course not learn her lesson as she harbored a dislike for Xia Fei deep down.

Leaving with her two attendants in tow, Yu Qiqi had a sullen expression, her two hands placed on her hips as she said, “Good one, Xia Fei. Now, see if I’m going to complain about you to the patriarch! You dared to bully this lady, then I’ll let you have an unbearable time here!”

Xia Fei smiled and pointed at Yu Qiqi. “Four-eared Amber Cat, I want you now to send Miss Qi back home. Don’t make any mistakes!”

*Whoosh!*

The Four-eared Amber Cat was very fearful of Xia Fei, such that there was not a single order from the man that it would dare to disobey, so it went chasing after Yu Qiqi.

Yu Qiqi and her two attendants ran off as quickly as they could, no longer sparing the time to spout ruthless words.

As the saying went: ‘Everything has its vanquisher.’ Everyone would all fawn and dote on Yu Qiqi as she grew older, yet today she happened to have met Xia Fei, someone who simply would not relent out of sympathy or pity for anyone. As such, she ended up suffering heavily from this encounter and in disgrace.

Yu Sansui was shocked. Never had he expected Xia Fei not to give Yu Qiqi any face. She was the progenitor’s granddaughter who dared to bully even the patriarch himself! Did he not know death?

…

Exotic beasts were loyal, and the Four-eared Amber Cat really escorted Yu Qiqi back to the Yu family capital before returning to the Roaring Tiger Park.

Yu Qiqi was no longer as proud as before, having lost an exquisite leather shoe, as well as a pair of North Pearl earrings, while she fled. Her silky hair was disheveled, and her short dress was torn up a lot from the tree branches, revealing parts of her thigh, looking absolutely in a mess.

Her two attendants did not fare any better, and even their energy bikes had been left behind, running all the way back to the city with what skills they had from cultivating the Law of Space.

Yu Qiqi got more and more furious the more she thought about it. She had cried in front of Xia Fei; how precious were these tears of Miss Qi? However, Xia Fei did not forgive her and even told the Four-eared Amber Cat to escort her back, which was very evidently his way of pranking her back.

Yu Qiqi very quickly came to the conclusion that Xia Fei was a devious, cunning, and hateful cad who did not how to show concern for the fairer sex!

Livid, Yu Qiqi stuck to the side paths and avoided the main road as she led her two attendants back home, afraid of letting anyone see her abject state.

Taking a turn into an alley, she happened to have bumped into a young man who was just in his twenties. He immediately stopped and asked with concern, “Forty-ninth sister, what happened to you!”

Yu Qiqi was the forty-ninth, and her name Qiqi also meant to point out how 7 and 7 made 49.

The young man speaking was called Yu Taizhou. Though they all shared the surname Yu, there was still a difference in terms of kinship; Yu Qiqi was the progenitor’s granddaughter, while Yu Taizhou was just another family member. Their status differed greatly.

Yu Qiqi was considered a top-tier beauty in the family with plenty of suitors, and Yu Taizhou could be considered to be one of them. However, Yu Qiqi had always had an unruly personality as she was the apple of the patriarch’s eye, so most of her suitors only dared to look but not get near her.

Today, Yu Qiqi looked completely haggard, and Yu Taizhou saw it as his chance. If he were to show that he was capable in front of Yu Qiqi, his future prospects might just improve tremendously!

Yu Qiqi rolled her eyes at Yu Taizhou and spat, “None of your business! Scram!”

Yu Taizhou did not relent and continued smiling as he asked, “Forty-ninth sister, tell big brother just what’s wrong. Big brother here will help you seek justice!”

Yu Qiqi hated men who wanted to play heroes in shining armor, saving pretty damsels in distress. Just as she was about to explode at him, a plan came to her.

“Big brother Taizhou.” Yu Qiqi acted all pitiful with her red eyes, her voice turning so soft that Yu Taizhou’s heart nearly melted.

“What’s the matter?”

“Someone… bullied me…” Yu Qiqi had very good acting skills, sniffling as if she were on the verge of tears.

“Who? Just who would be so bold to do that?! Big brother shall help you teach them a lesson!” Yu Taizhou angrily yelled.

Yu Qiqi softly answered, “Xia Fei, the new overseer at the Roaring Tiger Park actually set an exotic beast to bite me.”

Yu Taizhou was furious, patting his chest there and then to promise that he would decapitate Xia Fei and so on.

“I remember now! The day after will be the time when the newly promoted Law Warriors will get to choose their martial arts techniques. When that time comes, Xia Fei and all the other newly promoted Law Warriors will stay in the collection reservoir for up to three days, and that’s the perfect chance! I’ll make sure that he enters the place and never leaves!” Yu Taizhou viciously declared.

Yu Qiqi’s eyes sparkled as she said sweetly, “Then I’ll have to rely on you, Brother Taizhou. When that time comes, I’ll make my way over personally to watch the fight.”

“Don’t worry. Leave this matter to me. I’m friendly with several of the newly promoted Law Warriors, so I’ll secretly inform them what to do.”

“Xia Fei, you will never imagine that the collection reservoir is going to be your gravesite!”

Yu Qiqi knew she was actually at fault, so she got Taizhou to swear this matter to secrecy before saying her goodbyes and leaving.

…

Xia Fei did not exactly have a smooth first day as the overseer of the Roaring Tiger Park. Not only did Furball end up scaring most of their exotic beasts to death, he also became the subject of both Yu Sansui and Yuqiqi’s prank. Too bad that they had underestimated Xia Fei, ending up degrading and embarrassing themselves.

Yu Sansui knew how powerful Xia Fei was, so he admitted his mistake straight away, even swearing that he would not make the same mistake ever again.

Xia Fei did not wish to make too many enemies after joining the Yu family so soon, which was why he decided to let him off this one time.

The huge energy expenditure hung about him like a curse, pressing down on Xia Fei so he could hardly breathe. Having exchanged a hundred grade 2 Origin Crystals at Haoping’s shop, he was down to his final ton of Purple Hearts of Spirits. If he could not find any way to make money, Furball would just have to go back to simple fare, and Xia Fei had no choice but to decrease his cultivation speed as well.

His second day in the Roaring Tiger park was exceptionally peaceful. Only two out of the seventeen exotic beasts remained, and these two had become very docile and obedient after, lying on the ground in the compound and not daring to make too loud a noise.

The Roaring Tiger Park never experienced such quiet before, so the employees suddenly realized that following Xia Fei would not be a bad thing, since their day-to-day lives would at least be a lot more peaceful, no longer having to worry about being ambushed by the exotic beasts.

On the third day, Xia Fei cleaned up early, for today was the big day when the collection reservoir would be opened!

A warrior choosing what sort of martial arts technique would determine how great a combat strength they could exert in future battles to a great extent, and just how far they could go on this warrior’s path.

Xia Fei was filled with expectations, looking forward to acquiring a quality martial arts technique in these three days and adding it to his arsenal.

About two hundred or so people were gathered in that dirt field, and a good majority of them were newly minted Law Warriors like himself, as well as some who had chosen to pick their martial arts technique again because they were dissatisfied with their choices before.

Of course, it was not easy to get another chance to pick their martial arts technique from the collection reservoir again, unless they were directly related to progenitors of the Yu family or they had performed exceptionally well in the city.

Xia Fei found a quiet corner to stand, silently waiting for the reservoir to open. Not too far away, furious pairs of glaring eyes had caught his attention.

“Xia Fei, do you feel the unfriendly looks coming from the eyes of those men there?” Phantom asked with knitted eyebrows.
