Beast Taming: Starting From Zero-Chapter 667: If This Is the Final Wish
Qiao Sang's expression froze.
Hidden Resentment Yodu actually spoke like a human?
At that moment, a slightly familiar voice came from the side:
"Hidden Resentment Yodu only speaks human language when it's possessed someone. Whatever it says are the words the deceased wanted to say."
Qiao Sang followed the voice and saw No. 98.
"You haven’t left yet?" Qiao Sang asked in surprise.
"I was going to." The woman replied.
"But this Hidden Resentment Yodu seems to have its sights set solely on this man, so I stayed."
Qiao Sang: …
Humans truly do love a good spectacle.
The man didn’t answer the “little girl’s” question, but his attention had clearly returned to “her.”
Seeing this, Qiao Sang didn’t dare let Little Treasure release his psychic control just yet.
The man was dressed impeccably, if he wanted to make it in 1st District, his primary identity must be that of a Beast Tamer. Although it was unclear if he was a professional or what his level was, the fact that his first reaction after being attacked by Hidden Resentment Yodu wasn’t fear or a cry for help, but forming a summoning seal, indicated that he at least had a battle-capable pet beast.
Now, with a large crowd around, a fight would surely endanger bystanders.
She couldn't let the man summon his beast...
But at the same time, while Little Treasure was using psychic power, he couldn’t absorb the negative emotional energy from everyone… Qiao Sang thought of this and subtly glanced at No. 98 beside her, hoping she was too engrossed in the drama to remember they were still in a competition.
“Why…?”
The “little girl” asked again.
The man’s gaze turned vicious as he roared, “Get out of my daughter’s body!”
Seeing this, the crowd's earlier doubts about the man began to fade.
“This Hidden Resentment Yodu is probably a wild pet beast. How could we suspect a father who just lost both his children because of a wild pet beast?” Someone in the crowd said.
Others quickly chimed in:
“Exactly, they say Hidden Resentment Yodu only possesses people who died miserably. I remember this girl fell from a building, definitely a tragic death. Doesn’t necessarily mean it was her father’s fault.”
“Once Hidden Resentment Yodu possesses someone, it only tries to fulfill their last wish. Remember that news story about the elderly lady possessed by one? Her grandson had stabbed her to death, yet after being possessed, she didn’t go after him. She just went to comfort her daughter. Maybe this little girl only wanted to ask her father why he didn’t save her.”
“Yeah, that makes sense.”
Even with clear characteristics and behavior traits, when it came down to humans versus beasts, people from Chaosu Star still instinctively chose to believe humans.
The “little girl” moved stiffly toward the man.
The man tried to back away but found his feet seemingly locked in place. Panic flooded his face.
The “little girl” stretched out a pale, bloodless hand, about to grab the man's throat, when suddenly, a green thorny vine whipped around “her” wrist.
The “little girl” looked up and saw a male human and a green pet beast roughly three meters tall.
“Quick! Summon your beasts and help out!” A young man who saw himself as acting righteously shouted.
Humans are strange creatures. Alone, they fear even a general-rank pet beast. But as long as there’s a group, and someone takes the first step, courage miraculously appears.
Many people answered the call, forming seals with both hands.
Stars of different colors lit up around them.
The man was stunned for a second, then couldn’t help the corners of his lips twitching upward. But he quickly realized that smiling at this moment was inappropriate and straightened his expression.
Qiao Sang glanced at the “little girl” with a complicated expression.
Honestly, after Little Treasure sensed the emotional energy earlier, she truly believed something was off with the man. But in this situation, what could she do?
She couldn’t exactly help the “little girl” fight a bunch of Beast Tamers.
In truth, letting them battle it out might not be a bad idea. The best solution would be to wait for the police, then explain everything… Qiao Sang thought calmly.
But then a flood of other thoughts surfaced.
What would happen after the man was taken away?
Even if the truth came out, would he be sentenced to death?
No.

Beast Tamers were always privileged on Chaosu Star. He might get a suspended sentence or even be released on bail.
Might as well let the “little girl” take care of him now. Avenge the wrong…
By now, the area around the man was a fierce battleground. Skills of all colors flared up. Although most summoned beasts were below general-rank, the sheer number of them temporarily held back the “little girl,” preventing “her” from getting closer to the man.
Qiao Sang silently exhaled, looked at Little Treasure, and whispered:
“Get him to Hidden Resentment Yodu.”
“Xun Xun~”
Little Treasure perked up with a hint of excitement.
The next second, the man, previously shielded by beasts, suddenly slid uncontrollably through them, straight toward the “little girl.”
In that moment, his expression twisted in terror as he finally cried out:
“Help me!”
Unfortunately, the battle noise was too loud. Everyone was focused on the “little girl,” and no one noticed their supposed target of protection was screaming for help.
So when the man, face filled with despair, appeared before the “little girl,” everyone was stunned.
“Resentment?”
The “little girl” tilted her head, seemingly just as confused.
Then “she” remembered something and raised a hand, instantly forming a black energy ball.
Qiao Sang watched coldly.
Suddenly, No. 98 sighed beside her: “If this is the little girl’s wish, then with that shadow orb, her soul might completely vanish.”
Qiao Sang’s heart skipped a beat. She instinctively shouted: “Little Treasure!”
“Xun Xun~”
There was no need for further explanation. Little Treasure understood his master perfectly. His glowing blue eyes flicked left.
The man instantly flew sideways, crashing hard into a tree.
At the same time, with a loud boom, the shadow orb missed its target and blasted a crater into the ground where the man had stood.
Qiao Sang’s shout had been so loud that many people turned toward her.
Seeing Little Treasure’s glowing blue eyes, everyone quickly connected the dots and began praising her.
“Well done!”
“Kid, you did great!”
“If it weren’t for you, that guy would’ve been done for.”
Qiao Sang just smiled without saying a word.

Augustwood Tournament Institute
The audience watched the live footage from contestant No. 113 and fell silent, hesitating to speak:
“If I’m not mistaken… wasn’t that man just sent to Hidden Resentment Yodu by No. 113?”
“I saw it too…”
“He was about to form a seal when that ghost-type pet beast used psychic power to control him.”
“So why did she move him away at the last second?”
“Seemed like No. 98 said something.”
Those who had heard No. 98’s words fell silent again.

Ferdebit General Hospital
The man slowly opened his eyes and looked toward the voices of the crowd. Seeing them praising the girl who had controlled him earlier, he nearly coughed up blood in rage.
At that moment, a dark shadow shot out, wrapping around him tightly, constricting his arms, fingers, and legs.
Then it pulled back-
Crack! The sound of bones breaking echoed from his body.
“Ahhhh!!”
His anguished scream sent chills down the spines of everyone present. Fear spread. People backed away, not daring to attack the “little girl” again.
The “little girl,” using her shadow control, approached the man.
This time, no one stopped her.
