BOSS Transmigrates as a Little Cutie

Chapter 139: Companion Beast

How could Mrs. Gled not be alarmed at the sight of a man who was supposed to be dead appearing out of nowhere, especially when the man was killed by her own hand?

I, Ilos? Is it really you? Mrs. Gled stood up, and instead of approaching her adopted son, she scuffled back several steps, only stopping when she touched the flower vase behind her.

Madam, havent you been expecting me to return? Qing Yun asked in a sarcastic tone.

Mrs. Gleds face changed several times before she could eventually only pull out an embarrassed smile. She calmed down slightly and asked in a pinpoint manner, Are you really Ilos? Those who traveled with you at the beginning said that you were caught in an interstellar storm, and the police have also confirmed your death

She absolutely could not believe that Ilos was still alive. Back then, she witnessed this young man taking the poison she prepared and curling up on the floor in agony.

And if there was no accident, Ilos should have been thrown to that garbage star long ago!

Thinking of this, Mrs. Gled suddenly thought of the station master who had not contacted her for a long time and gritted her teeth secretly.

Could it be that there was a problem with that step?

Madam, you said I was traveling and encountered an interstellar storm, something I dont remember. However, in any case, you should be happy for my return. Qing Yun glanced at Mrs. Gled. Although he did not know exactly how Ilos died, he figured it would always have something to do with his stepmother.

He didnt pay attention to Mrs. Gled, whose face turned pale, but said to the agent next to him, who had an expression like seeing a ghost: Sir, when I returned, I have already verified my identity and reapplied for a personal terminal.

Saying that, he raised his wrist towards the agent, Look, so now you should be able to confirm my identity.

Oh, thats a miracle. Youre still alive. Thats great, sir. Seeing that brand new personal terminal, the agent finally breathed a sigh of relief and sent his blessing towards Qing Yun.

So these transfer papers wont be necessary, right? Qing Yun raised the papers in his hand.

The agent shrugged, Of course, this is all based on your death. Since you are still alive and your identity has been confirmed, these things are null and void.

Seeing the duck in her mouth fly away1, Mrs. Gleds panic and distress stirred together, almost suffocating her to death with one breath. However, something even more unpleasant happened to her. The agent had just left, and before Mrs. Gled, who had obviously changed her personality, could say a word to Ilos, there was an announcement from the butler at the door.

Young Master I, Ilos, the council has sent you an invitation to participate in the selection of His Majestys contract person.

What? Youre going to participate in the selection of the contract person? Mrs. Gleds voice that had changed its tone rang out once again. This time, it was simply louder than when she had just seen Ilos come home.

Taking the invitation from the butlers hand, Qing Yun then gave Mrs. Gled a straight look: Madam, you have always denounced me as a waste before. Now, it is time for me to prove it to you.

He looked at Mrs. Gleds hardened face, and as if he didnt find the expression interesting enough, he carelessly mentioned again, I just saw on the official website that Phil was also selected. Madam, Im surprised. Didnt Phil already contract a cat-type companion beast? How come he is participating in this selection?

Hearing Ilos words, Mrs. Gleds face turned completely white. She ultimately did not understand why Ilos, who came back from outside today, was completely different from the past, and every word could step on her most feared point.

Fortunately, she did the poisoning secretly. Otherwise, she would have been finished after this waste came back!

Seeing that the people who came to deliver the invitation had not yet left the courtyard, Mrs. Gled quickly explained to Qing Yun: Ilos, you are wrong, Phil does not have a companion beast, and a cat that does not fit with Phil at all.

She was most afraid of Ilos mentioning this matter, because in the empire, to kill their companion beast without authorization is a capital crime. Fortunately, Phil had not had time to register after contracting the companion beast. Otherwise, even if the Gled family is very powerful, Phil will be in trouble.

Because His Majesty Edmund of the empire is a Star beast, with his reign, the entire empires companion beast status is the same as that of humans. Although he has been asleep for a long time, this rule still exists.

Is that so? Qing Yun smiled and looked at Mrs. Gled. He didnt have the heart to pay attention to this family now, and his main purpose of returning to the Gled house today was just to get the invitation.

Because he was not able to use the mans breath to find where he was. Even when he was on the space hub station, Qing Yun did not detect the breath of the scale until he touched it and recognized that the scale was related to the man.

Qing Yun even suspected that there seemed to be some power in this world preventing him from finding that man, so this selection was an opportunity that he absolutely could not let go of.

But before that, he had to personally visit and explore the palace on the Capital Star.

After Mrs. Gled went upstairs with fear and jealousy in her eyes, Qing Yun found Ilos room accurately according to the servants response. However, a few seconds after everyone saw the rumored dead young master Ilos enter the room, a figure flashed past the window of Ilos room and then skipped silently in the direction of the palace.

In fact, with Qing Yuns current ability, there is absolutely no need to be careful to hide from the eyes and ears of others. It would be perfectly fine even if he directly attacked the palace with one persons strength.

But is that man really sleeping in the palace? And who is the one who can block Qing Yuns perception of the man?

To be able to interfere with his perception on a large scale throughout the world, Qing Yun guessed that it was most likely that the rules of this world intervened; otherwise, even the Heavenly Dao would not necessarily be able to do so.

After all, the Heavenly Dao has always only roamed the space where Qing Yun was and even suffered a heavy blow from Qing Yun in the last world.

This world is the result of a high degree fusion of millions of worlds in this space. The rules of this world are much stronger than the rules that Qing Yun had encountered before, so if it is determined to restrict Qing Yuns perception, it might really be able to do it.

If it is true that the rules have done it, then every living being in this world will become the ears of the rules. And concerning where the man is, Qing Yun not only can not come hard, but must also carefully avoid everyone in his search.

"

"

It was already night, and two purple moons rose in the sky, strangely illuminating the entire empire.

At night, the palace emits a dark purple luster, just like the legendary powerful Star beast. However, since Emperor Edmund fell asleep, this palace has been declining day by day and is no longer the same as its previous glorious appearance.

The servants in the palace are even the same group that served His Majesty Edmund before. They are already old, but the reverence for the legendary man remains in everyones eyes.

Qing Yun avoided the attendants in the palace and carefully explored every corner of this huge building.

The rules shielded his souls perception, so he would search for the man himself, using his own two eyes to judge. No one could stop him from finding that man. Even if it was just his bones, Qing Yun would find it.

Qing Yun gave up searching with his consciousness and merely used his soul to shield the eyes of the servants in the palace.

As if he had returned to the period when he had no ability whatsoever, he used his fingers to investigate every crevice of the floor and walls, searching for traces of the man in the most rustic way, turning over the palace where the man had lived inch by inch.

It was a long process. The consciousness left in Iloss room had already passed on several times that someone had come looking for him. Qing Yun used that sliver of consciousness to simulate Ilos appearance and block out other peoples probing.

Unfortunately, until dawn, Qing Yun did not find any trace of the man aside from a few of the mans scales.

It was about dawn when a military aircraft slowly stopped outside the palace.

Andrea stepped down from the aircraft and entered the palace. He took off his hat and bowed toward the white-haired palace minister.

Greetings, Sir, I am General Andrea of the First Legion of the Empire, ordered by the council to take the largest scale left by His Majesty for the selection of the contract person in three days. I believe the council has informed you in advance.

Oh, Ive got this one ready. The palace ministers cloudy eyes shot a glance at Andrea through his lenses. Only after seeing the insignia on his shoulder did he turn around and slowly walk over, holding a blue-purple scale in his palm.

This scale is different from the one Qing Yun got earlier at the space hub station. It is much larger and has obviously been detached from its owner for only a mere hundred years, still emanating the powerful, intimidating force from that man.

Andreas whole body trembled involuntarily when he received the scales. Then, his knees went weak, and he involuntarily fell to one knee on the ground.

He looked at the scale in his hands in surprise, his eyes filled with astonishment. Just a slightly larger scale, but there is such a terrifying pressure. How powerful is that legendary man?

The palace minister tremblingly helped Andrea up: General, you are still young. It is normal that you cannot withstand the intimidation of His Majesty. At first, it took me a long time to be able to serve His Majestys meals normally.

Andrea lowered his eyes, covering the ambition and discontent in his eyes. No matter how powerful the man is, he is now just a long-sleeping waste. The glory and halo on him have long since faded because of time, and the glory of the new era is destined to belong to him.

But Andrea looked up with a strong look of longing in his eyes as he asked the palace minister, Is Your Excellency still in the care of His Majesty today? Is His Majesty well? Couldyou let me go and see His Majesty? You know I have grown up listening to the stories about him. Even now that I have become the head of the First Legion, I still adore His Majesty as I did when I was a child.

Hearing Andreas words, Qing Yun, who was hidden in the shadows, slowly narrowed his eyes. With his experience, he naturally saw at first glance that the young general was not well-intentioned, but the palace minister in front of him clearly had a good feeling about this promising young man.

Qing Yuns gaze swept over the two subtly. He felt that the young general named Andrea had a strange aura about him, but Qing Yuns attention was now on the palace minister. He could not find any trace of the man, then this palace minister must know, right? Qing Yun instantly thought of capturing him and forcing him to reveal where the man was sleeping.

But in the face of Andreas inquiry, the palace minister shook his head regretfully and said, General, I appreciate that you have this intention. Over the years, there have been many lords who wanted to visit His Majesty. However, His Majesty is sleeping in the space he opened himself, and no one has been able to find where he is.

Andrea instantly asked the question that was in his mind, Then why bother to find a contract person for His Majesty? We cant find His Majesty, right?

General, it was not our request to find the contract person for His Majesty. It was His Majestys own request. I heard His Majestys voice a hundred years ago, and thats why I ordered a search throughout the entire empire. Every contract person who is selected will be taken by His Majesty to the space he is in and will be released only after staying for three years.

Hearing the words of the palace minister, Andrea and Qing Yun were both startled. Could it be that the man was still conscious?

Andreas heart was flooded with scorn. The first thing that arose in Qing Yun was surprise. Nothing was more pleasing to him than the news that the man was still alive, but then he had doubts, if the man was still awake, why didnt he come to see him and let the rules block his perception?

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Andrea left with the scales.

Qing Yun, who was hiding in the shadows, hesitated for a moment but finally refrained from forcing anything more from the palace minister. He could see that the old man was telling the truth. Besides, the disappearance of the man who is the emperor of the whole world will certainly be concerned by people from all walks of life, and if he really knew where the man was, he probably couldnt hide it even if he wanted to.

Moreover, it would not be good if he made a rash move that would allow the rules to find out about it and move the location of the man.

Qing Yun once again looked at the huge building and eventually turned away, but his gaze had become extremely determined. That man is still alive, and he will definitely become the mans contract person this time to smoothly see him and wake him up.

No one and nothing can stop him, not even the rules of this world.

In a separate space, a huge beast body floated quietly within the space. This is an extremely large and, at the same time, extremely beautiful beast. His body is covered with silver and purple scales, and the light flowing almost integrated with the universe.

Even in slumber, a terrible aura flowed around the beasts body. This aura almost formed the most fierce storm in the world, stirring up everything that happened to enter this space.

The giant beast has a slightly curved horn on its forehead, which is the source of the horrible aura around him. However, only the tip of this horn still shines brightly. The rest of it shows a strange gray, indicating that the actual situation of the beasts body is not good.

However, the moment Qing Yun turned and left the palace, an extremely dazzling light suddenly flashed within this separate space. This light slowly expanded and enveloped the entire body of the giant beast.

After the light was completely absorbed by the beasts body, the space seemed to strangely resound with the sound of the beasts breathing again, and the light of the horn on his forehead began to faintly flicker with his breathing.
