There is a beast in the bright morning.

Chapter 316 Zhan Hu Takes in a "Human Pet"

"So what if you are the real young master? Your parents love me. I am the true young master of the Wang family, and you are just a dog of the Wang family."

Wang Hao walked dejectedly down the road, Wang Teng's words echoing in his ears, stimulating his heart time and time again.

"Since none of you like me, why did you bring me back in the first place? Just to humiliate me?"

Wang Hao asked himself repeatedly whether this kind of home was really worth staying for.

Perhaps he was too distracted, Wang Hao didn't notice that the surroundings were gradually being enveloped by thick fog.

The pedestrians began to disappear until there was no one left, except for Wang Hao, who was still walking in the thick fog, completely unaware of what was happening.

Bang~

Suddenly, Wang Hao bumped into something in the mist and snapped awake: "What was that? Wait, where is everyone? There's no one here!"

Wang Hao looked around in horror. He clearly remembered that just a moment ago he was on a bustling street, but the next moment he suddenly found himself in this strange and eerie place.

Wang Hao touched the wall in front of him and suddenly felt that the wall had a strange texture. It felt furry and warm, making Wang Hao want to keep touching it.

"Hey, have you touched enough?"

Just as Wang Hao was engrossed in touching the wall, it suddenly moved, followed by a mocking voice.

As the sound appeared, the surrounding fog began to dissipate, and Wang Hao then realized that he was actually in an alley.

But that's not the key point. What's more important is that Wang Hao discovered that the furry and warm thing he had touched earlier was not a wall at all, but a huge white tiger.

Wang Hao estimated that the tiger in front of him was over three meters tall just by sitting on the ground, and its forelimbs were thicker than Wang Hao's waist, making it several times larger than an ordinary tiger.

The white tiger was already mysterious enough, but Wang Hao discovered that the white tiger in front of him also had heterochromia, with a blue pupil in its left eye and a golden pupil in its right eye, which undoubtedly added to its beauty.

While Wang Hao was sizing up Zhan Hu, Zhan Hu was also sizing up Wang Hao. He was a little puzzled. Was this seemingly dull guy in front of him really Hao Chen's clone?

When Zhan Hu arrived, he learned about the situation of this clone. It was just too tragic. It was even worse than the previous clone who was wrongly accused of stealing the Foundation Establishment Pill. At least that clone was the senior disciple of the sect.

The clone in front of us, named Wang Hao, was abducted at the age of three and later sent to an orphanage.

He was finally found by his biological parents, but he's not living as well as the family dog. At least the dog has its own room, while Wang Hao has to live in the basement.

Thinking of all this, Zhan Hu suddenly had a wicked idea. He would take advantage of Hao Chen's absence while Hao Chen was away in class to tease Hao Chen's clone. He wouldn't want to miss this opportunity.

"Kid, do you also think I'm super handsome? Judging from your eyes, you're not completely captivated by me, are you?"

Just as Wang Hao was immersed in the wonder of how such a large tiger could exist in the world, a strange voice suddenly rang in his ears, startling him so much that he kept looking around, trying to find the source of the voice.

After looking around, Wang Hao realized that he was the only one in the alley, no, there was also a big white tiger.

The next moment, as if he had thought of something, Wang Hao looked at the white tiger in front of him in horror. It seemed that it was the other party who had just spoken.

Zhan Hu seemed to know what Wang Hao wanted to ask, and nodded at Wang Hao: "Does it surprise you that I can speak?"

"..." After a two-and-a-half-second pause, Wang Hao suddenly screamed in terror, "A monster! A big tiger is eating people!!!"

Wang Hao felt like he had gone mad. He had actually been so captivated by the handsomeness of that big white tiger that he had completely forgotten that he wasn't facing a kitten or puppy, but a super dangerous tiger.

If the big tiger hadn't suddenly spoken, he doesn't know how much longer he would have continued watching.

Zhan Hu picked at his ear, calmly watching Wang Hao turn and run away, not worried at all that the other party would get away.

Sure enough, Wang Hao quickly retreated, trembling. Accompanying him were the Four-Faced Beast, and the Bixie and Tianlu sitting on its back.

Tianlu looked at Wang Hao, who was cowering in the corner and trembling, and said with some disdain, "Bixie, is this Haochen's clone? Why does he look like a coward?"

Although Bixie found it hard to believe, based on the clues Haochen gave them, Wang Hao was the person they were looking for: "Tianlu, we should be right. He is Haochen's clone. As for being afraid?! He was probably just scared by Zhanhu."

When Zhanhu heard Bixie slandering him, he immediately became indignant: "Hey, don't slander me like that, I didn't scare him."

"It must be a dream, I need to wake up quickly."

Looking at the two-and-a-half-meter-tall Sibuxiang, and Bixie and Tianlu sitting on its back talking, Wang Hao felt a sense of despair. Was he going to be eaten by these monsters today?

Before Wang Hao could think further, he saw Zhan Hu suddenly stand up, walk to his side, and raise a tiger paw bigger than his face.

"Ah! Don't eat me! I haven't showered for days, the meat is rotten. I can buy you the best kind of meat."

Wang Hao kept his eyes closed and mumbled incoherently, but the imagined pain of being torn apart did not materialize.

When Wang Hao opened his eyes, he found that Zhan Hu had already lowered his claws, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief; he was still alive.

At the same time, Wang Hao also noticed the corners of Zhan Hu's mouth turning up unintentionally, and another question arose in his mind: Did the other party just raise its claws to scare him?

"Kid, we know your situation. You're a pampered young master from a wealthy family. Where would you get the money to buy us meat, the best of all? Aren't you ashamed?"

Even though Wang Hao knew that the creatures in front of him were extraordinary and might be legendary monsters, he was still frightened when he suddenly heard the tiger speak again.

But then, when Wang Hao heard Zhan Hu's words, he couldn't help but lower his head. Could it be that everyone already knew about his situation?

Tianlu and Bixie exchanged a puzzled look, not understanding what Zhanhu wanted to do. Before going to school, Haochen had given them the task of finding Wang Hao and solving the mystery of his birth, after which they didn't need to worry about him.

However, Tianlu soon found out. Zhanhu suddenly changed the subject and tempted Wang Hao, saying, "Boy, acknowledge me as your master. As long as you become my pet, I will give you power so you can properly slap that fake young master named Wang Teng in the face. Isn't that what you've always wanted to do?"

“I…” Wang Hao fell silent. He had indeed thought about it, more than once. He even wondered if his parents would like him as much as they liked Wang Teng if Wang Teng were gone!

Seeing that Wang Hao remained silent, Zhan Hu felt even more confident about taking Wang Hao as his subordinate.

Tianlu also seemed to understand something from Zhanhu's words, and immediately whispered something in Bixie's ear, occasionally glancing at Wang Hao with Bixie.

Bixie's eyes flickered, a kind of emotion called excitement flashing in them: "Tianlu, are you sure there's no problem? Haochen will probably be very angry if he finds out."

"Don't worry, Bixie! At worst, we'll just go up and act cute, and Haochen won't have the heart to hit us, hehe!"

"Alright, then consider it interest."

While Bixie and Tianlu were discussing it, Wang Hao had already made up his mind. It was just a matter of acknowledging a boss, so he would accept it.

Besides, if he didn't do as Zhan Hu said, it's uncertain whether he could even leave this place alive.

If the other party wasn't lying to him, then recognizing Zhan Hu as his boss might actually be a stroke of luck for him.

Thinking this, Wang Hao's fear disappeared, replaced by a secret joy. "Wang Teng, just you wait."

"Boss!"

When Zhan Hu heard Wang Hao call him "boss," he thought to himself, "With Wang Hao's status, it's practically the same as Hao Chen calling me 'boss' too. How awesome!"

However, Zhan Hu did not show any joy on his face. Instead, his expression darkened and he said, "Call me master!"

"Ah!" Wang Hao thought Zhan Hu was just joking when he said he wanted to take him as a pet, but actually meant to take him as a follower. But he didn't expect Zhan Hu to be serious.

When Zhan Hu saw that Wang Hao was silent, he thought to himself that it was indeed no use. It seemed that he would not be able to hear Hao Chen's clone call him master. However, being Hao Chen's boss was not bad either.

Wang Hao gritted his teeth. He'd come this far; all he had to do was call him "master." He'd do it.

"Master!" Although it was a little embarrassing to call a tiger "master," Wang Hao found that it wasn't as difficult as he had thought once he actually did it.

After hearing Wang Hao's words, Tianlu nudged Bixie, and then the two beasts jumped off the back of the Four Unlikes and walked toward Wang Hao with ill intentions.

"Ahei! Ahei! Ahei!"

Hao Chen, who was waiting for class at the Xie Zhi's place, suddenly felt an itch in his nose and sneezed several times in a row.

"Strange, I have a bad feeling about this." Hao Chen rubbed his nose, wondering if something had happened to Zhan Hu and the others.

Before Hao Chen could think about it further, Xie Zhi arrived. However, when he saw that Mei Mei hadn't come as early as usual, Xie Zhi frowned, wondering if Mei Mei had been reading too late at night.

Just as Xie Zhi was about to ask Hao Chen about Mei Mei's situation, Mei Mei arrived, panting: "S-Sir, I'm sorry, I'm late."

"It's alright, sit down quickly." Xie Zhi's tense heart instantly relaxed upon seeing Mei Mei. Fortunately, nothing bad had happened, otherwise, as her teacher, he would have felt terrible.

Walnut turned to Meimei and smiled, "Meimei, you actually overslept? Did you go out to catch mice tonight?"

Meimei didn't answer Walnut's question, but instead gave Walnut a meaningful smile.

Then Meimei took out a bouquet of flowers from somewhere and walked up to Xie Zhi before he started class: "Teacher, today is Teacher's Day, and I brought some flowers for you."

"???" Hao Chen and Walnut looked bewildered. Today is Teacher's Day? Mei Mei almost arrived late because she brought flowers?

In an instant, the word "scheming fox" popped into Hao Chen and Walnut's minds.

Hao Chen gritted his teeth. He had gone to see Mei Mei when he came back. After learning why Mei Mei was afraid of him, he apologized and promised not to bully the fox anymore, which finally made Mei Mei stop being afraid of him.

Unexpectedly, Meimei turned around and pulled this trick on him, secretly sending a Teacher's Day gift to Xiezhi without his knowledge.

The Xie Zhi took the flowers from Mei Mei's hand with a smile: "Yes, that's thoughtful. Please sit down."

"Of course, thank you for your guidance, sir. I wish you a world full of successful students and your influence will spread far and wide!"

Hearing Meimei's practiced flattery, as if she had rehearsed it countless times in secret, Haochen became even angrier.

"No, we can't let Meimei outdo us." Haochen and Walnut had the same thought.

Tear ~

Hao Chen made a tough decision and ripped off his eyebrows: "That Xie Zhi, time is a bit tight, so I'll give you two tufts of my eyebrows to ward off evil and bring you good fortune."

"Uh! Thanks!" Although Xie Zhi was a little surprised that Hao Chen would give him a gift, he felt pretty good about it.

Now, only Walnut was left rummaging through his schoolbag, finally pulling out a handful of glass marbles with a heavy heart: "Sir, these glass marbles are for you, to wish you... to wish you..."

Seeing how reluctant Walnut was to part with it, Xie Zhi smiled and said, "No need, I appreciate your kindness. Let's start class."

"Phew!" Walnut breathed a sigh of relief and quickly put the glass marble back into his schoolbag.

At the same time, under the half-threat and half-temptation of Zhanhu, Bixie, and Tianlu, Wang Hao willingly gained three more "masters".

“Master, would you like to have a seat first? I think my biological parents and that adopted son would be very happy to welcome you.”

Wang Hao looked obsequious, as if he completely accepted his status as a "human pet".

But Zhanhu and the others noticed a cold glint in Wang Hao's eyes, and he even revealed murderous intent when talking about his adopted son.
