Myriad Realms Heaven.

Shenwu Pavilion Branch.

"Brother Mu, don't be so stingy. It's just a small favor I'm asking you to do!"

Yang Lin looked at the man sitting at his desk without looking up and spoke with a hint of resentment.

"Don't even mention calling me 'brother,' you can't even call me 'grandfather'!"

Mu Beiye finally raised his head from the table, rubbing his head helplessly. He felt like his head was about to split open after being pestered by Yang Lin for almost an entire afternoon.

After hearing Mu Beiye's answer, Yang Lin remained silent for a moment, as if he had finally made up his mind.

"This concerns my happiness for the rest of my life. If you can really help me make it happen, I might even call you grandpa..."

"Yang Lin!"

Before Yang Lin could finish speaking, Mu Beiye couldn't help but roar out in anger.

"Bai Ze's precognitive abilities were created for the sake of all living beings, not to predict your lottery numbers!"

Unexpectedly, Yang Lin became even angrier than Mu Beiye after hearing these words.

"I am just one of the common people! There are so many rich people in the world, what's wrong with adding me?!"

"you……!"

Ring ring—!

Mu Beiye was so angry that his face contorted with rage, and he was about to curse when the phone in Yang Lin's pocket rang first.

Seeing the name displayed on his phone screen, Yang Lin forgot about arguing with Mu Beiye about the lottery numbers and quickly answered the call, a happy smile unconsciously appearing on his face.

"Brother Lu, what's up with the call?"

Yang Lin spoke cheerfully into the phone, as if he had just been arguing with Mu Beiye until his face turned red.

Immediately afterward, the person on the other end of the phone said something, and Yang Lin's smile widened, with a hint of excitement in it.

"Really? Okay, okay, I'll definitely be there on time tonight!"

Yang Lin nodded repeatedly, then hung up the phone.

"What good stuff has that kid found this time?"

It wasn't until Mu Beiye suddenly spoke that Yang Lin, who was engrossed in the call and chuckling to himself, snapped out of his daze and waved his phone at him with a smile.

"Hehe! Brother Lu said he found a good sword and asked me to come over and take a look later. If I like it, he can keep it for me instead of auctioning it off."

"A sword! What sword?!"

Upon hearing that the content concerned a sword, Mu Beiye suddenly stood up from his seat, his eyes shining brightly.

Few people know that the head of the Shenwu Pavilion branch is actually a sword fanatic; he can't tear himself away from a good sword once he sees one.

Yang Lin, however, seized upon this point about Mu Beiye, and took the opportunity to put his arm around Mu Beiye's shoulder and chuckle.

"If you're willing to let Bai Ze help me calculate the lottery numbers for the next draw, I'll have Brother Lu leave the sword to you, and you'll get to choose from any other good swords that come along. How about that?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Beiye nodded directly.

"It's a deal."

Now it was Yang Lin's turn to be stunned.

He didn't expect Mu Beiye to agree so quickly, as if he hadn't even thought about it. He couldn't imagine that this guy had just been so vehemently against his request.

"As expected of you!"

Yang Lin raised his hand to cover his eyes, shaking his head with a helpless smile.

...

at the same time.

Inside the most popular pet shop in Yandu.

Even though it was almost closing time, the store was still bustling with customers.

Only when the sun had completely sunk below the horizon in the west did Wu Mingxu and Zheng Meng, who had been busy all day, finally have time to sit down and rest.

"ah--!"

Wu Mingxu leaned back in his chair, one hand on his waist and the other on his leg, and let out a long howl.

"My waist! My legs! They feel like they no longer belong to me!"

In the past, Zheng Meng would have definitely laughed at him for trying to slack off, but now, she was sitting back in her chair with the same feeling.

She rubbed her aching body and turned her head slightly to look at the man behind the front desk.

"Boss, please! Hire two more employees!"

"That's right! If this continues, we'll both be in grave danger!"

Wu Mingxu echoed the wailing.

Upon hearing this...

The man, who had been engrossed in organizing the accounts, finally dared to look up.

"You two hold on for a few more days. In a few more days, Uncle Fu will return with the people from the Divine Pavilion. At that time, you will have as many helpers as you need."

"Really?!"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Meng and Wu Mingxu's eyes lit up. They exchanged a glance, both seeing hope in each other's eyes.

"Alright, alright."

Seeing the two of them looking so pathetic, Lu Yuan smiled and waved his hand.

"It's getting late, you two pack up and go home! Don't lock the shop door, I'm waiting for Lao Mu to come back."

"OK!"

Zheng Meng and Wu Mingxu tidied up the shop briefly before ending their busy day and heading home.

After they left, Lu Yuan got up and returned to the backyard of the Divine Beast Pavilion. Then, in a flash, he entered the Beast Taming Space.

The vast beast-taming space was completely empty.

A sturdy ancient tree stood in the very center of the space, as if sensing Lu Yuan's presence, its leaves moving swiftly and rustling without any wind.

Lu Yuan smiled and stroked its trunk, then walked around it toward the small wooden house not far away.

"Master, you're back!"

Chu Xing, who was cooking while wearing an apron, heard the noise and came out to greet them with a smile.

"Yes, I'm back."

Lu Yuan nodded to him, preparing to change into some comfortable loungewear first.

Upon seeing this, Chu Xing quickly came over and offered to help Lu Yuan change his clothes, but was immediately scolded by Lu Yuan.

"Where the hell are you touching?! Go, go, go and cook your meal!"

After sending the reluctant Chu Xing back to the kitchen, Lu Yuan quickly changed his clothes and went up to the second floor of the wooden house as usual, opening the familiar room.

There was no furniture in the room, only four cabinets filled with containers placed in the middle.

Lu Yuan walked to the middle of the four containers and mobilized all the spiritual power in his body to transfer to each of them. He stopped only after an hour, when he was sure that each container had been filled with enough spiritual power.

"Three months have passed in the blink of an eye, why is there still no news?"

Lu Yuan leaned against the window to recover his spiritual energy, muttering to himself.

When the ancient ferocious beast Taotie was resurrected, the world faced destruction.

In that critical moment, if it weren't for Chi Lin, Chi Yu, Ling Ye, and Xiao Yi transforming into spiritual power and merging with him, he would probably have died in that battle by now.

However, he also lost his left hand in the battle. Fortunately, Li Liuxin was a healing beast tamer, and he healed all of his injuries after the battle, and his left hand grew back.

but.

The healing-type beast tamer can bring his left hand back, but cannot separate the four little creatures that have merged with him.

Just when he was feeling disheartened, Bai Ze suddenly appeared and gave him these four containers, telling him to continuously input spiritual energy into the containers for one hour every day, and when the time was right, the four little ones would reappear.

But three months have passed, and there hasn't been a single sound coming from inside the container.

"Is Bai Ze lying to me?!"

Lu Yuan was a little unsure and hesitated whether he should go and ask Mu Beiye.

Suddenly.

A gentle breeze blew by, playfully lifting the curtains and inadvertently blocking Lu Yuan's view.

Just as Lu Yuan raised his hand to pull back the curtains, several familiar voices came from beside him.

"Master, we're back."

The End.
