There is a beast in the bright morning.

As the temperature has been rising in recent days, Hao Chen is finding it hard to stand. Tian Lu, Walnut, and other beasts that are usually restless are now hiding in the deer-man's shop.

Hao Chen shook the fan in his hand. As if things weren't going well, the only fan in the Deer Man Shop broke down in the sweltering summer.

So Haochen said to the four-legged creature, "Four-legged creature, it's so hot, how about we install an air conditioner? I can pay for it."

The previously listless Qilin perked up after hearing Haochen's words. If he remembered correctly, he should have already taken all of Haochen's money.

The four-legged creature looked Hao Chen up and down, as if trying to find where Hao Chen had hidden his money: "Oh, Hao Chen, you still have money? A lot? Let me see."

Hao Chen rolled his eyes at the four-legged creature: "Four-legged creature, do you think I don't know what you're up to? Don't even think about it. This is my private stash of money. I'm not giving it to you. Besides, it's only enough to buy an air conditioner."

Seeing that there was no chance, the four-legged creature waved its hand and said, "Why install air conditioning? It's a waste of money. You have no idea how much it costs to support this whole family..."

"Stop, stop, stop. If you're not comfortable, then so be it. You don't need to say anything more about the 'four unlikes'."

When the four-legged creature continued to complain, Hao Chen quickly interrupted it, since it was during the creature's complaints that his money had been taken from him.

Seeing that the Qilin didn't seem to have any intention of installing air conditioning, Hao Chen looked at Rabbit Lord and Zhan Hu beside him and asked with some doubt, "Rabbit Lord, I remember you have air conditioning at home, why aren't you staying at home?"

Upon hearing Hao Chen's words, Rabbit Lord angrily kicked Zhan Hu, but Zhan Hu didn't feel much of a kick. He turned around and continued to lie on the ground, since Rabbit Lord's strength was just a tickle to Zhan Hu.

Rabbit Lord explained, "Don't say anything, Zhan Hu was sleepwalking last night and smashed my air conditioner."

Zhanhu muttered a defense in a low voice, "I didn't do it on purpose. I just dreamt that my master was in danger."

Hao Chen was quite disappointed; he had originally planned to go to Rabbit Lord's house tonight to enjoy the air conditioning.

Seeing that everyone looked half-dead, the Qilin comforted them, saying, "Alright, calming your mind will cool you down."

Hao Chen chimed in, "Yeah, it's so hot it's almost freezing."

But then, the words of the four-legged creature suddenly gave Hao Chen an idea, so Hao Chen quickly said, "Four-legged creature, quickly call Di Ting."

Without Hao Chen needing to explain further, the Four-Faced Beast understood what Hao Chen meant, so it immediately called Di Ting: "Hey, is this Di Ting? Are you free? Come play mahjong with me."

"The Xie Zhi has recently gone to another place to escape the summer heat and won't be back for a while."

"What? You have work to do and can't come?"

"Okay, then hurry up."

As soon as the Qilin finished its call with Diting, it met the eager eyes of the deer-man's shop.

Hao Chen looked at the Qilin excitedly. He still remembered the cool, blue claws of the Di Ting that fit his face: "Qilin, what did the Di Ting say? Is it coming?"

The Four-Faced Beast shook its head: "I heard that he still has work to do. He'll come over as soon as he's done."

Upon hearing the strange creature's words, Tianlu collapsed weakly to the ground again: "What? Are we waiting for him to take us down? I'm dying of heat."

"Mom and Dad, Walnut is so hot!" Walnut's fur was much thicker than Hao Chen and Tian Lu's, so it could be said that it was cold-resistant but not heat-resistant. At this moment, Walnut felt like it was hallucinating from the heat.

Seeing that his two adorable children were almost overheated, Hao Chen had no choice but to grit his teeth and use his divine power to activate the Yin-Yang Dao within his body, triggering the Taiyin Law. Instantly, wisps of cold air emanated from his body.

As soon as the cold air wafted out, even before Hao Chen could say anything, Tian Lu, who was closest to Hao Chen, was the first to feel the chill and hugged Hao Chen tightly: "Hao Chen, your body can be as cool and refreshing as Di Ting's too."

As soon as Tianlu finished speaking, the two animals, Qilin and Tuye, looked at Haochen with surprise. Qilin said, "Haochen, if you have this ability, why didn't you show it sooner?"

Hao Chen explained, "I'm not like the Four-Unlikes. I'm not like the Di Ting, which has its own cold air. I'm expending my divine power."

After hearing Haochen's explanation, the four-legged creature nodded: "I see. Haochen, how long can you maintain this state?"

After feeling the depletion of his divine power, Hao Chen said without reservation, "I can last about ten to fifteen days now, but if I get bigger, I'm afraid I can only last three days."

Hearing that Hao Chen could keep his body cold for three days even as he grew bigger was enough to keep him going until Di Ting arrived. Even if Hao Chen could no longer emit cold air by then, it wouldn't matter.

So, the four unlikes, Tianlu, Rabbit God, Walnut, Fuzai, Zhanhu, Golden Horn and Silver Horn, and Totoro all stared intently at Haochen.

"What...what do you want to do?" Hao Chen looked at the beasts' gazes and guessed what they wanted to do, but constantly growing larger was very tiring.

"Haochen, could you just grow bigger?"

"Hey, Walnut and Fuzai want to cool off, Haochen, okay?"

Even though Hao Chen was unwilling, he still succumbed to the pleading eyes of Tian Lu and He Tao.

Finally, Hao Chen was surrounded by a group of furry creatures that he could pet as much as he wanted, but Hao Chen was not happy at all, mainly because the divine beasts on his body were too heavy.

More importantly, his limbs were sealed. Hao Chen spread his limbs and lay on the ground with Walnut on his head, Tian Lu on his back, Zhan Hu's head pressing against his belly, Rabbit and Four-Faced Beast hugging his front paws, Golden Horn, Silver Horn, and Cat Dragon holding his hind paws, and Fu Zai lying on his tail.

"Alas, in the end, it was just me, a single beast, who bore the brunt of it all." With so many beasts on his body, Hao Chen could only increase the output of his divine power.

Hao Chen looked at Zhan Hu, who was resting on his stomach, and said helplessly, "Zhan Hu, can't you shrink?"

Zhan Hu didn't even look up and said, "Becoming smaller would hinder me from showing off my majestic and heroic figure, so I don't want to become smaller."

"Zhanhu, you..."

It's infuriating, but Hao Chen can't do anything about Zhan Hu. His paws are being held by the four-legged creatures, so he can't move them at all, and his tongue isn't long enough to lick Zhan Hu.

But fate is kind. Just when Hao Chen thought he was going to be their body pillow all day, Tian Lu on his back suddenly said, "It's so cool now. I wish we had some watermelon to eat."

"By the way, you four-legged creature, I remember you planted watermelons in your backyard, didn't you? I was the one who cleared the soil."

Hearing Tianlu calling him, the Qilin said, "What nonsense are you talking about, Pipi? The watermelons in the field won't ripen until next month."

Upon hearing what the strange creature said, Fu Zai thought of his own abilities.

Having been at the Deer Man's shop for so long, Fuzai knows he has received a lot of care. The Four-Unlikes not only took him in, but also helped him find a teacher to learn Chinese and even helped him find his parents. Now he can use his abilities to help them.

So Fuzai stood up excitedly and said, "Fuzai can help ripen the watermelon."

Tianlu was initially disappointed when the Four-Faced Beast said the watermelon wasn't ripe yet, but Fuzai's words made him look forward to it again: "Are you really that amazing? Can you make a watermelon ripen?"

When Walnut heard Tianlu questioning Fuzai, she stood on Fuzai's side: "Fuzai never lies. If she says it's okay, then it's okay."

So the beasts who wanted to eat watermelon immediately stood up from Hao Chen's body, not caring about the hot weather, and crowded around Fu Zai as they arrived at the watermelon patch of the four unlike creatures.

In an instant, only Hao Chen remained on the scene, with Zhan Hu sleeping with his head on Hao Chen's stomach.

Hao Chen looked at Zhan Hu, who was sleeping soundly, and suddenly had a mischievous idea. He flicked his tail and gently brushed it across Zhan Hu's nose and belly.

Zhanhu wasn't woken up as Haochen had expected. Instead, it rubbed its nose, hugged Haochen's tail, and continued to sleep on Haochen's stomach.

Seeing Zhanhu like this, Haochen had no intention of waking him up, and just quietly watched the big white tiger sleep.

But Zhanhu is Zhanhu after all. Just when Haochen was getting a little sleepy, Zhanhu suddenly shouted as if he were having a nightmare: "My lord, don't be afraid, I'm here! You must not harm my lord!"

"Slap!" Before he even woke up, Zhan Hu suddenly stood up and slapped Hao Chen hard across the face.

Hao Chen was stunned at first, realizing he had been slapped in the face. The next moment, Hao Chen didn't care whether Zhan Hu did it unintentionally or not, and directly overturned Zhan Hu.

Zhan Hu was knocked to the ground and naturally woke up, but he obviously still couldn't understand why he and Hao Chen were the only ones left here.

Then, to Zhan Hu's puzzled look, Hao Chen pounced on Zhan Hu, pinning him down, and then slapped him across the face as well.

"Haochen, what are you doing? Do you want to fight?"

It is said that you should not hit someone in the face, but Zhan Hu saw Hao Chen's act of hitting someone in the face as a provocation, and Zhan Hu naturally could not tolerate it.

Fortunately, Hao Chen and Zhan Hu both restrained themselves, and just rolled around in the deer man's shop. Sometimes Hao Chen would press down on Zhan Hu and slap him in the face, and sometimes Zhan Hu would sit on Hao Chen and slap him.

Leaving aside Hao Chen and Zhan Hu, in the watermelon patch where the four creatures seemed to have no similar characteristics, the beasts stared in astonishment at Fu Zai as she instantly ripened the unripe watermelons.

Tianlu exclaimed excitedly, "We can eat watermelon now! Fuzai, you're amazing!"

Walnut chimed in, "Of course, Fu-zai is amazing."

Fu-zai was a little embarrassed by the praise: "I'm not as amazing as Walnut said."

The four-legged creature rubbed Fuzai's head: "You really are an auspicious beast, much more capable than Pipi."

Tianlu: "You can praise the Four-Unlikes if you want, but why are you dragging me into this? Hurry up and get me the watermelon, I want the biggest one."

"Walnut also wants to eat watermelon with Fuzai."
