Even hybrid monsters have their day

"It's you?"

"It's you?"

Geng Miaowan never expected that the person emerging from the thick fog would be Qiu Pi. He still had that handsome face, but his hair was a little messy, and his usually indifferent expression showed a hint of something different when he saw her.

A child was draped upside down over his left shoulder, supported by his left hand, while another child was tucked under his right armpit. The child on his shoulder was obscured because his back was turned to her, but the boy under her armpit was almost entirely soaked in blood. Both children were motionless, their condition unknown.

Geng Miaowan was shocked and pointed at Qiu Pi, saying, "You... Qiu Pi, I never thought you would do such a thing!"

In fact, ever since Luan Hao changed Geng Miaowan's fate, her appearance has changed every day until recently when it has basically stabilized and stopped changing.

That day at the entrance to the demon realm prison, Qiu Pi sensed something different about her; her eyes seemed much clearer. Today, upon seeing her again, she seemed like a completely different person. Even so, he still recognized her—it was Geng Miaowan, the Geng Miaowan who had stolen the Jade Linglong he had painstakingly acquired.

Seeing that she seemed to have misunderstood him, he didn't rush to explain and asked, "Geng Miaowan, give me back my Jade Linglong!"

Ever since Geng Miaowan stole his Jade Linglong, he felt resentful every time he thought about it. This time, knowing that Gong Zhihong was going to the human realm on business, he went to great lengths to get him to take him along, all in order to find the Jade Linglong back.

He thought that after a year, finding her would be much harder, but to his surprise, he found her on his very first day in the human world.

“Yu Linglong…” Geng Miaowan momentarily forgot that she had stolen something from him, but Yu Linglong was gone, and she couldn’t conjure one up to return it to him. Moreover, there were more important things to do right now. She pointed at the child and said, “Qiu Pi, don’t change the subject. If you know what’s good for you, hand over the child quickly, or don’t blame me for being impolite.”

Xiao Bai suddenly coughed lightly in her mind. It is said that if you don't have a big mouth, don't exhale so much air. Geng Miaowan's breath was really unusually big.

Qiu Pi was amused by her tone, and he laughed heartily, "Geng Miaowan, I didn't know you'd grown so much in just a few days. Today I'll show you who's being impolite!"

After saying that, his eyes flashed with blue light, and his clothes moved without wind. Without even making a move, a spell shot out from his body, heading straight for Geng Miaowan. Geng Miaowan couldn't dodge in time, and just as the spell was about to hit her, Xiaobai jumped up and swallowed it whole.

Qiu Pi then took a closer look at the little white dog that he had ignored from the beginning.

Although he didn't like Geng Miaowan, she was, after all, Gongye Hong's daughter. So, he had just casually cast a spell to scare her and teach her a lesson. But spells aren't like other things; even if you open your mouth, it will still strike through it.

The little white dog easily swallowed his spell, which made him look at it in a new light. Seeing the little white dog's appearance, its cute and fluffy appearance, it even vaguely resembled Yu Linglong.

He stepped forward in surprise and said to Xiaobai, "Could you be the three-headed hellhound sleeping inside the Jade Linglong?"

Xiao Bai glanced at him disdainfully, then arrogantly returned to Geng Miaowan's feet.

Geng Miaowan had always thought that Yu Linglong was lost, but she never imagined that Xiaobai was actually Yu Linglong. However, upon further reflection, it seemed that Xiaobai appeared around that time, which made sense.

Seeing its appearance, and considering the unique abilities of Cerberus, he was certain that the little white dog was indeed Cerberus.

"You...signed a contract?"

Geng Miaowan nodded hesitantly.

Qiu Pi's eyes practically spit fire as he looked at her. He had gone through countless hardships to obtain Yu Linglong, hoping to sign a contract with the three-headed hellhound before it fully recovered its magic power from its initial awakening, even if it was just a simple contract. But he never expected someone else to beat him to it, and someone he had always considered a good-for-nothing at that.

Geng Miaowan watched as his face displayed a fascinating array of expressions, while she subtly took small steps back. She knew Qiu Pi; usually, when he showed so many emotions, it meant something important had happened.

Sure enough, the moment she lifted her foot, he yelled at her, "Geng Miaowan, you owe me my Cerberus!" After yelling, he threw down his two children and rushed towards her.

"Ah, child!" Geng Miaowan, who was originally planning to run away, saw the child being thrown out and quickly lunged to the left. "Xiaobai, go to the right."

Geng Miaowan gathered the spiritual energy in her body to protect herself. The moment her hand touched the child, she was struck by a palm wind carrying spiritual energy and sent flying several meters away. She fell to the ground, still holding the child, without moving.

Seeing her still fiercely protecting the child in her arms even after being hit, this was a side of Geng Miaowan he had never seen before.

Realizing he had forgotten in his anger that Geng Miaowan was a useless body incapable of cultivation, he figured that if she were to be beaten like that, she would probably be badly injured, if not killed. He stepped forward to check if she was alright, but Xiaobai blocked his way.

After catching the child, Xiaobai called out to Geng Miaowan several times in its mind, but she didn't respond at all. As Geng Miaowan's soul-contracted beast, it could sense that although her aura was weak, she wasn't in any life-threatening danger. Even so, it was still furious. This person had actually injured its master right in front of it! Where was its pride now?!

Little White turned around menacingly, staring at Qiu Pi, its spiritual energy suddenly surging. It roared at Qiu Pi, and a spell flew from its mouth towards him. Although its aura was very strong, its body had not recovered, and its strength was greatly weakened. The spell didn't even hit its target, but just flew diagonally past his ear.

Unwilling to give up, Xiao Bai unleashed another spell with all his might, but it still missed. He attacked again, but it was dodged once more.

Qiu Pi was somewhat surprised that this Cerberus was not as powerful as rumored. He had initially been reluctant to attack it, only dodging, out of respect for its three heads. However, he hadn't expected the dog to become so engrossed in the fight. Finally, he impatiently cast a spell on it, forcing it back about ten meters and setting up a barrier around it.

If Xiaobai were in its normal state, ten Qiu Pis wouldn't be a match for it.

After trapping Xiaobai, he went to check on Geng Miaowan and was relieved to find that she was alright. However, upon checking, he discovered that she had actually entered the Qi Refining stage, and that her spiritual energy was surging wildly within her body. Although it wasn't life-threatening, the situation was still not optimistic.
