We even reserved evolution points for evolving Kiki, and it turns out they were completely useless?

[Crimson: It's not that it can't evolve, it just can't evolve to S-rank or higher.]

[It's possible that after evolution, the scepter will become a cane, but the cane will at most be an S-class cane, not an SS-class cane.]

[Your precious daughter may evolve into your precious son, but he will still only be able to reach S-rank and cannot break through.]

Damn... then what's the point of me evolving?

Whether it's a daughter or a son, isn't it all the same? It's just that one requires a bride price, and the other requires a dowry…

Ugh... I've actually been led astray...

Since the item level cannot exceed yours.

What about pets? Can a husky be improved?

Coming to his senses, Li Qingyu suddenly thought of Erha. Could a monarch-level bloodline still break through?

[Crimson: Hmm... I can't break through either, give up.]

[Therefore, I've always said that the monarch-level bloodline is the highest level of bloodline in normal evolution.]

[The growth level may change after evolution, but the bloodline level will be at most monarch level, that's the limit.]

[Unless... you evolve me first, hahaha! ~]

Damn... so this was what they were waiting for me...

Crimson, you're determined to find a reason to force us to modernize, aren't you? Are you trying to force us to save money?

But... we never wanted to evolve Kiki and the husky...

I'm sorry to have disappointed you.

Saving money is impossible.

It's just flowers!

[Crimson: Anyway, you'll evolve into me sooner or later, so I'm not in a hurry.]

The wheel of fate, once started, has no chance of stopping.

This is destiny, young man!

Pshaw! You talk a good game, but all you want is for us to save money so you can spend it all at once.

Spendthrift women, dream on!

After ending his conversation with Crimson, Li Qingyu looked at Deathwing, who was getting closer and closer in the distance, and felt conflicted.

Should we... release the remaining consciousness of Mother Nature?

Ugh, so annoying…

Although, according to Crimson, it's at most one body with two souls, so the danger isn't great.

But what if? What if that Mother Nature kidnaps his precious daughter?

After all, Crimson is right about one thing. Blood-related, I am Qiqi's adoptive father, while Mother Nature is her biological mother.

What if the child rebels and refuses to acknowledge their father?

Just as Li Qingyu was struggling with his inner turmoil, Colonel Chu spoke up calmly:

"You stay here and don't make any rash moves. I'm going to test the dragon's strength."

"If things don't look good, we'll retreat."

"Yes, sir." Li Qingyu nodded.

The next second, Colonel Chu vanished instantly.

Li Qingyu blinked as he watched the fading phantom before him.

Tsk... Colonel Chu, you can teleport, can't you...?

My sudden appearances and disappearances make me seem really silly.

Okay, let's not put Mother Nature in yet.

Li Qingyu gave up his hesitation and decided to see if Colonel Chu could handle it. Perhaps… Deathwing, outwardly fierce, was inwardly fragile?

boom!!!

Suddenly, a loud bang came from the sky, and the ground shook even more violently.

Ha... I knew it...

With some difficulty, Li Qingyu tucked the Eternal Scepter into his pocket.

Every time Colonel Chu disappears, it's accompanied by a loud bang. You'll have to get used to it...

roar!!!

A hoarse, harsh, and terrifying dragon roar resounded. Li Qingyu calmly raised his head and looked into the distance.

Let's see just how strong this dragon really is, and whether it can withstand the fist as big as a casserole dish from Colonel Chu.

However, Li Qingyu, who looked up at the sky, was instantly stunned.

Huh?! Where's Deathwing, who was hanging in the air just now, streaking across the sky with sparks and lightning? Where did he go?

boom!!!

roar!!!

The sounds of bombardment and dragon roars rang out once more.

Li Qingyu stroked his chin, lost in thought. Judging from the source of the sound, it seemed… to be on the ground?

Did Colonel Chu just beat Deathwing to a pulp? Or... is Deathwing rubbing Colonel Chu in the ground?

The rapidly rising temperature caused Li Qingyu to be constantly sweating.

Li Qingyu wiped his hands casually, then strained to lift his head and stand on tiptoe, trying to see the two fighting.

Unfortunately... from his perspective, he couldn't see anything.

Li Qingyu licked his dry lips. Damn it… what the hell is going on? Should he wait, or use the scepter to summon the leader to flee?

Suddenly, Li Qingyu noticed a husky rolling happily on the ground beside his feet as the desert trembled.

What a happy and innocent dog! Its tail was smoking, yet it was still having so much fun.

Li Qingyu made a decision in an instant: it was you.

Use... Heart of the Beastmaster!

In an instant, Li Qingyu's heart began to beat rapidly due to the heat.

Suddenly, his heartbeat became even more intense, and the sound of his heartbeat became deep and heavy.

The husky, rolling around happily, swelled up rapidly as Li Qingyu's heartbeat quickened.

"Woof woof woof! ~ Woof?"

As it rolled around, the husky sensed something was wrong. Why had its owner shrunk again?

So the husky stopped rolling around, quickly got up, and tilted its head to look at its increasingly smaller owner.

"What are you looking at? Lower your head a bit."

Seeing the husky staring blankly, Li Qingyu gave a mental command.

Despite its confusion, the husky obediently stretched its head in front of Li Qingyu.

Hmm...it seems the husky's intelligence has recovered somewhat...

Li Qingyu was genuinely afraid; the husky, upon hearing his command, stood upside down. Perhaps time is a cure, able to heal the poison that causes brain damage?

Overjoyed, Li Qingyu stepped on the husky's nose and climbed onto its head.

"Raise your head, raise it a little higher."

That's right, Li Qingyu just wanted to find a high place to get a clear view of what was happening ahead.

Since Colonel Chu doesn't allow us to wander around...

Let's go up!

Anyway, as long as the Eternal Dark Destruction Wave isn't used, the giant form of the two huskies can be maintained for quite a long time, so it doesn't matter if it's used for a while.

As the dog raised its head, it lifted Li Qingyu high into the air.

Li Qingyu finally saw it, amidst the raging flames and sandstorm ahead.

The situation between Colonel Chu and Deathwing.
