Divine Beast Creator-Chapter 110 Trip to Cloud Summit Mountain_1

"Did you guys go on a big shopping spree or what?"

After gathering, Feng Yuan said somewhat speechless as he looked at Qi Xiaoshuang and the other two holding a bunch of stuff. Qi Xiaoshuang, a bit proud, said,

"A lot of the stuff is only on sale now, limited-time specialty products~"

"Like this~"

Seeing the ethnic clothing Qi Xiaoshuang was showing off, Feng Yuan looked at her, somewhat puzzled, and said,

"Do you usually wear this?"

"Uh... none of your business! Can’t I wear it when I take photos!"

"Don’t tell me all you bought were clothes..."

"Of course not! There are other things too, like food and stuff. For instance, Yun tea. Don’t you like Yun tea? Aren’t you going to buy some?"

Qi Xiaoshuang proudly showed Feng Yuan her spoils of battle. Feng Yuan, somewhat speechless, looked at the Yun tea in the bags and said,

"Aren’t we going to Cloud Summit Mountain for camping? The Cha Mu Forest there is one of the best Yun tea producing areas in Cha Mu Town. I was actually planning to buy some there."

Qi Xiaoshuang stiffened, her proud expression instantly replaced by a sheepish one, and she quickly gathered her things and went to talk to Dou Yanlan. Feng Yuan, a bit speechless, looked at Qi Chen and said,

"Didn’t you try to stop her? At least, there’s no need to buy Yun tea right now, right?"

Qi Chen sighed helplessly and said,

"I did try, but it was no use..."

"You guys are really..."

Feng Yuan saw that there was also well-packaged Yun tea in Qi Chen’s bag and didn’t quite know what to say. After a while, Yang Hongzhi came back with Najia and Xiao Hei. Seeing the bag in Yang Hongzhi’s hand, Feng Yuan said somewhat speechlessly,

"Don’t tell me you also brought back some Yun tea?"

"Yun tea? These are pastries. Some are for people and some for Spirit Beasts. Najia and I thought they were tasty, so we brought some back for you guys to try."

"Pastries?"

Seeing Yang Hongzhi open the bag to reveal the pastries inside, Feng Yuan reached out with interest and grabbed a pastry. Looking at the well-presented pastry in his hand, he asked,

"Is this for Spirit Beasts or for people?"

"For people, the Spirit Beast ones are in this blue bag."

"Then let me try."

"Not bad at all~ Tastes pretty good~ Xiao Ji, do you want one?"

After eating, Feng Yuan took out a few pastries from the blue bag and handed them to Xiao Ji, the Dreaming Dragon Baby, and Big Cat behind him. Once everyone had tasted the pastries, he said to Yang Hongzhi,

"Where did you buy these? Give me an address~ Next time we come here, I’ll go buy some more~"

Yang Hongzhi scratched his head and said,

"I bought them at a temporary stall. The owner seemed to have made some just for the ritual and was selling them just for that occasion. I saw they were cheap and got curious, so I tried some. They’re probably all sold out by now."

Upon hearing Yang Hongzhi’s explanation, Feng Yuan was instantly a bit disappointed. Qi Xiaoshuang said, somewhat puzzled,

"What temporary stall? How come we didn’t see it?"

Yang Hongzhi pointed behind him and said,

"It’s quite far in that direction. Seems like it was newly set up this year for the sellers coming from the villages to sell their specialty products."

Seeing Qi Xiaoshuang’s interest, Qi Chen said, somewhat speechless,

"If we go shopping again, it’ll be very late by the time we get to Cloud Summit Mountain."

"I know, I know! Seriously, we should have gone there first."

Qi Xiaoshuang said with some regret, and under Yang Hong’s lead, everyone boarded the bus heading for Cloud Summit Mountain.

"Finally here~ I thought I wouldn’t be able to get off until tonight~"

"Who knew there would be a traffic jam halfway... Just bad luck, nothing we could do."

"It would have been great if Big Cat could evolve, he could have flown us here~"

"Meow?"

"You’re dreaming, right? A Scholarly Owl might at most carry one person with its size. Even if Big Cat could carry, how would he do it? One by one?"

Qi Chen said helplessly to the whimsically thinking Feng Yuan. Big Cat tilted his head, looking at Feng Yuan, puzzled. Feng Yuan smiled and rubbed Big Cat’s head, saying,

"You could have a basket to hang from, right~ That way, you could probably carry two people at once~"

"You’re trying to work Big Cat to death..."

"Hey! What are you two doing? Hurry up, we’re heading up the mountain!"

Qi Xiaoshuang shouted as she realized Feng Yuan and Qi Chen were still standing in place. They exchanged glances and quickly caught up with the three people ahead. The fog around them thickened as they climbed, and Feng Yuan casually summoned a Crystal Barrier to protect himself before saying,

"Don’t you think the moisture is too heavy?"

"I don’t even have a Spirit Beast, what do you expect me to do?"

"I can’t perform any barrier-related techniques, so I’m out of options."

Qi Chen said somewhat helplessly and, sensing something, he examined his clothes closely and asked in confusion,

"Is your cloth specially treated? How come it seems like the moisture can’t penetrate it?"

"Yeah, it’s waterproof and fireproof. After all, it’s made of Ritual Robe material, so it does have some defensive features."

"Ritual Robe?!"

Qi Xiaoshuang looked at Feng Yuan with some surprise. Just as Qi Chen was about to say something, Feng Yuan spoke up,

"Anyway, those materials aren’t that expensive to me. Don’t talk about paying or anything like that. Besides, I might need to stay at your place temporarily after graduation."

"Why? Oh right, you indeed can’t stay in the school dormitory after you graduate."

"Do I need to contact a teacher from our school to help you arrange a dormitory in advance?"

Yang Hongzhi asked Feng Yuan, who shook his head and said,

"No need. Staying temporarily at Qi Chen’s place will do."

"If worse comes to worst, I’ll just rent a place outside to live in for the time being—"

"Gina..."

"What’s the matter with Najia?"

Seeing Najia seeming somewhat sentimental, Feng Yuan scratched his head in confusion, and Yang Hongzhi sighed after looking around and said,

"I found it here last time..."

"Last time? Right, did something happen here? It mustn’t be a small matter if a school adventure group has to handle it."

"If it’s something you can’t talk about, never mind."

"It’s not really a big deal."

Yang Hongzhi reminisced for a moment and said,

"We came here last time because there seemed to be a strange Fire-Attribute Spirit Beast causing destruction in the Cha Mu Forest, so we were asked to investigate."

"But we didn’t find anything after searching for several days, though we did encounter Najia again."

"Gina..."

Seeing how Najia looked, Feng Yuan quickly shifted the topic,

"Let’s go pick tea instead—there should be a tea-picking experience, right—"

"No... The Yun tea from Cloud Summit Mountain has always been the best batch. How could they possibly let you wreak havoc..."

"What a shame. Anyway, let’s hurry to the campsite—"

Everyone rushed to the campsite set up on the mountain peak and found that quite a few people had already pitched their tents. Feng Yuan spotted a good location, dashed over, and eyed Big Cat, saying,

"Bring out the tent—"

"Meow?"

Big Cat tilted its head to look at Feng Yuan, and, noticing Feng Yuan coming over with a mischievous smile, hurriedly pulled the tent out of the bag. Qi Chen looked at Feng Yuan with some speechlessness and said,

"Big Cat is so unlucky to be with you. Is it really okay for you to bully Big Cat like that?"

"How am I bullying Big Cat! It’s clearly pretending to be dumb on purpose!"

"Meow~"

Seeing Big Cat put on an innocent face, Feng Yuan approached frustratedly and started vigorously rubbing Big Cat’s head, messing up the feathers, and then turned to set up the tent.

"Meow~"

Big Cat looked pitifully at Qi Chen as it poked its head out. Qi Chen sighed after glancing at Feng Yuan and helped Big Cat tidy its feathers. After setting up the tent and noticing Xiao Ji had been quiet, Feng Yuan poked at the silent Xiao Ji in his hood with some confusion.

"Xiao Ji, what’s wrong with you?"

Prodded by Feng Yuan, Xiao Ji only wriggled slightly. Feng Yuan hurriedly tried to pull Xiao Ji out of the hood, but perhaps because his actions were a bit rough, Xiao Ji jumped onto Feng Yuan’s shoulder and nudged his face with its head. Surprised, Feng Yuan held Xiao Ji in his arms and seeing its damp fur from the moisture, he said,

"Your fur is wet and you didn’t even make a sound. Really, now."
