A dog hatching from an egg—any sane person would find it unbelievable, right? But this bizarre event happened right before Fang Jueyu's eyes.

"This is downright spooky," Fang Jueyu said as he picked up the Soul-devouring Beast's cub.

The little creature's eyes hadn't opened yet; its tiny pink tongue flicked in and out, exuding an extreme cuteness. If Guo Xinyu were here, she'd surely be over the moon with excitement.

"Xiao Yi, can something like this really destroy civilizations? You must be kidding, right?" Fang Jueyu poked the little one's belly.

"Well..." Xiao Yi seemed a bit unsure. Its database contained information about the Soul-devouring Beasts, as well as images of them, but those were colossal creatures spanning dozens or even hundreds of kilometers, bearing no resemblance to this puppy-like creature in front of them.

However, when Soul-devouring Beasts appear in the outside world, they're usually in their adult state, and there's never been any sighting of a juvenile Soul-devouring Beast. Perhaps when they're young, they really are this innocuous-looking?

Maybe it was due to the Bloodline Contract on the eggshell; the little one had no defenses against Fang Jueyu whatsoever. It lay quietly in his hand, rubbing its head against his palm.

"Host, regardless of whether this truly is a Soul-devouring Beast, since you have a Bloodline Contract, it will never betray you," Xiao Yi remarked in disbelief. "Your family's business is quite extraordinary, to have even gotten ahold of such an egg."

"Whatever, whether it's a dog or not, let's just keep it as a dog! I'll name you Er Gou, and maybe you can guard my Super God Academy!" Fang Jueyu decided.

"I'll kill you!" Xiao Yi said through gritted teeth. Fang Jueyu's father used to call it a dog, so the implications of "Er Gou" were clear.

"Don't mind the details, Xiao Yi. What does this Soul-devouring Beast eat? Dog food?" Fang Jueyu asked absentmindedly.

Angry yet powerless to resist, Xiao Yi eventually gave in. "According to my database, Soul-devouring Beasts hunt fierce interstellar creatures as food. This really surpasses my knowledge."

Fang Jueyu opened Er Gou's mouth, and since it had just hatched, it hadn't grown any teeth yet.

"Fine, I'll get it some milk." Fang Jueyu carefully placed the little one on the sofa and turned to go into the kitchen.

As soon as Fang Jueyu left, the little one woke up from its nap. Its round belly rumbled, clearly starving.

Its shiny black eyes darted around before a set of short but incredibly sharp teeth suddenly grew from its mouth. Its nose gently sniffed the sofa beneath it, then it took a fierce bite...

"I wonder if alien creatures can adapt to the milk we humans drink!" Fang Jueyu said, holding a small bottle of milk as he walked out of the kitchen, only to be dumbfounded by the scene before him.

The $5.2-million imported mahogany sofa was now in tatters, wood chips, expensive leather, and cotton strewn everywhere.

The amethyst coffee table in front also had a missing corner, and the remaining parts were covered in chaotic bite marks and scratches.

The painting on the wall, worth tens of millions of dollars, was left unrecognizable.

The two Qing Dynasty porcelain vases that Emperor Qianlong once used were riddled with dents.

"What the hell... I was only gone for ten minutes, and a thief broke into my house?" Fang Jueyu was dumbstruck by the scene before him, especially at the ruined masterpieces, feeling as if his heart were bleeding.

"Crunch, crunch!" At that moment, a crisp sound came from the entrance hall, and Fang Jueyu hurriedly ran over.

There, a pitch-black Er Gou lay next to a piano previously used by Chopin, with one piano leg already half-chewed.

"Woof, woof?" Sensing Fang Jueyu's arrival, it turned its head, its intelligent eyes giving him an adorable look.

"Crunch!" The half-chewed piano corner finally gave way under the piano's weight and crashed to the ground.

"I... I was gone for just ten minutes, and you've torn my house apart?" Fang Jueyu's fists clenched involuntarily. "Aren't you supposed to be some kind of Soul-devouring Beast? You're just a Husky, aren't you?"

"Xiao Yi, look up how to cook dog meat deliciously!" Fang Jueyu spat, throwing the milk bottle in his hand to the ground. In just a few minutes, he'd lost billions. No matter how rich he was, he couldn't afford such a destructive creature!

Fang Jueyu had been practicing the Potential Guiding Technique for over a month. According to Xiao Yi's data, his strength, speed, and reflexes were about ten times that of a normal person. Yet, he couldn't catch a single dog at this speed?

"Whoosh!" He dashed at Er Gou like a blur, but strangely, Er Gou leaped with even more astonishing speed, evading him!

It seemed to be playing a game, dodging left and right, destroying a piece of decoration in the living room with each move.

"Crash!"

...

Moments later, the entire living room was in complete disarray. Yet Fang Jueyu didn't even manage to pluck a single hair from the dog. How could someone with powers equivalent to a B-level superpower user not catch a newly-born dog?

"Huff, huff!" Fang Jueyu leaned against the wall, panting. He had used every trick he knew and couldn't even catch a dog. Now he believed, this Er Gou was definitely not an ordinary dog! Discover exclusive content at My Virtual Library Empire

"Whimper, whimper!" Er Gou whimpered in grievance; it just wanted some food because it was hungry. Why was its owner chasing it relentlessly?

"If this creature had shown up earlier, I could have probably activated my first-level permissions in just a few days!" Fang Jueyu lamented. His dad hadn't brought a pet; he had essentially hired a demolition team.

During the chase, some powdered milk had spilled on the ground. Er Gou sniffed and scurried over, licking up the milk powder eagerly.

"Whimper, whimper!" Its little black face showed a satisfied expression; this stuff was way tastier than those hard, dry things from earlier!

After finishing the milk powder, Er Gou looked unsatisfied, then ran over to Fang Jueyu, wagging its short tail.

"You want more?" Fang Jueyu asked.

"Woof!" Surprisingly, Er Gou seemed to understand him!

"This dog is sentient!"

Fang Jueyu suddenly had an idea. "From now on, you have to listen to me. No eating anything without my permission, and no wanton destruction!"

"Woof, woof!" Er Gou nodded intelligently.

"Haha, host, don't underestimate Soul-devouring Beasts. Their brain development is much higher than humans, and their intelligence is far superior. Plus, with your Bloodline Contract, it can naturally understand you."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, if you manage to raise this Soul-devouring Beast, you could probably walk fearlessly across the universe once you leave Earth!"

"Shut up, don't you know how much stuff this thing will destroy as it grows?" Fang Jueyu almost cried looking at the chaotic living room.

He picked up the phone. "Aunt Zhang, there was a bit of an incident here. The living room was torn apart by a dog. Could you call someone to clean up? A lot of things were destroyed... What? We have spares? Okay, swap them out for me and find a skilled craftsman to fix my piano..."
