Lu Yuan did not stay at Treasure City and returned to the hotel.
Upon returning to his room, Lu Yuan immediately entered the Beast Taming Space.
As soon as I entered the space, I saw Xiao Yi and Chi Lin curiously surrounding the pet container.
"Eee?!"
Xiao Yi was the first to notice Lu Yuan's presence. She ran over and hugged him tightly, then pointed to the container in the center of the space, tilting her head in confusion.
Lu Yuan smiled and rubbed Xiao Yi's head.
"Did either of you notice anything different about it?"
Upon hearing this...
Xiao Yi and Chi Lin exchanged a glance, then shook their heads.
Lu Yuan frowned slightly upon seeing this.
Back when Akabane was still in its egg, Akazin could see its difference at a glance, so why can't he see what's hidden on Thunder Beast now?
Holding the still faintly warm jade pendant in his hand, Lu Yuan squatted down in front of the pet container.
The next moment.
Lu Yuan saw a pair of lifeless eyes, filled with chaos and nothingness.
Lu Yuan was slightly taken aback.
Logically speaking, such a gaze shouldn't appear on a newborn pet cub. His intuition told him that there must be something hidden within this Thunder Beast.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan raised his hand and opened the container.
The Thunder Beast looked up at Lu Yuan, then slowly walked out of the container and squatted down at Lu Yuan's feet.
Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow and looked at the Thunder Beast with great interest.
"You little rascal, you're not afraid of me at all?"
Due to the innate effect of the "All Beasts Submit" ability, most adult demon beasts would subconsciously feel fear towards him, let alone a newborn creature like the Thunder Beast.
But the Thunder Beast showed no fear whatsoever; in fact, it was quite affectionate towards him.
This is quite unusual.
The Thunder Beast looked up at Lu Yuan and kicked its little hoof.
Lu Yuan looked in the direction its hoof was pointing and his gaze fell on the jade pendant in his palm.
Do you know what this jade pendant is?
Lu Yuan only asked a question tentatively, but he didn't expect that the Thunder Beast would nod in a very human-like way.
Lu Yuan's eyes lit up immediately.
Immediately afterwards, the Thunder Beast pointed to the jade pendant, and then pointed to itself.
"You mean you want me to give you the jade pendant?" Lu Yuan guessed.
Thunder Beast nodded.
Lu Yuan had no suspicions and handed the jade pendant directly to the Thunder Beast.
The Thunder Beast didn't immediately take the jade pendant. Instead, it grabbed Lu Yuan's arm and bit down on it with a howl.
"hiss!"
"Eee!"
When Chi Lin and Xiao Yi saw that the Thunder Beast dared to hurt Lu Yuan, they immediately bristled and rushed forward almost instantly!
"etc!"
Lu Yuan quickly spoke up to stop the two little guys, signaling them not to be impulsive, and then looked down at the Thunder Beast.
The Thunder Beast was seen grabbing Lu Yuan's arm, and a drop of blood flowed down the wound, slowly dripping onto the jade pendant.
The moment the blood touched the jade pendant, a crisp "crack" was heard, and the jade pendant shattered into two pieces.
The next second.
A strong wind was blowing all around.
A dark purple light burst forth from the jade pendant, quickly enveloping the Thunder Beast.
Upon seeing this, Lu Yuan's heart tightened, and he subconsciously took a step forward, accidentally touching the dark purple light. A tingling sensation immediately spread throughout his body.
"This is... lightning-type spiritual power?!"
Feeling the aura emanating from the purple light, Lu Yuan was shocked.
There are many types of lightning-type spiritual power, and the most refined and powerful lightning-type spiritual power in legends is dark purple!
Could it be that the secret contained in the jade pendant is this supreme and exquisite lightning-type spiritual power?
What is the connection between the Thunder Beast and the jade pendant?
Judging from the Thunder Beast's behavior, it seemed that it already knew that the jade pendant contained such pure thunder-type spiritual power, but it was just a newborn cub, so how could it know about the jade pendant?
Moreover, the Thunder Beast even allowed the jade pendant to absorb its blood. Surely it wasn't for the purpose of a blood oath ceremony?
Just as Lu Yuan was making wild guesses.
The lightning-type spiritual energy surrounding the Thunder Beast finally dissipated slowly.
Lu Yuan looked up and was shocked once again!
"Thunder Beast?!"
The Thunder Beast's appearance had changed considerably.
Its body, which resembled a musk deer, was covered with many light purple scales. Not only did its antlers grow longer, but its tail also transformed into the shape of a dragon's tail. Upon closer inspection, it even seemed to have grown a few centimeters taller.
"Isn't that the Thunder Kirin?!" Lu Yuan couldn't help but exclaim.
"So you really do know my identity."
A majestic and solemn voice suddenly rang out, startling Lu Yuan, who instinctively looked around.
But this is his beast-taming space, and no one else can appear except him and his beasts.
Finally, Lu Yuan's gaze fell on the Thunder Beast in front of him.
"Was that you speaking just now?" Lu Yuan asked tentatively.
"That's right."
The same voice rang out again, and Lu Yuan also saw the Thunder Beast nod at the same time.
This surprised Lu Yuan even more!
Damn it!
How can this baby talk right after being born?!
Seeing Lu Yuan's shocked expression, Thunder Beast curled its lip in slight disdain.
"Don't compare me to those useless beast tamers. I am the Thunder Beast King who inherited the Qilin's legacy. Isn't it normal for me to speak human language?"
"No, no, no!" Lu Yuan waved his hands repeatedly, "How could it be normal?"
This is equivalent to a newborn baby being able to converse fluently with you, which is terrifying to think about!
Even if the baby's parents both have an IQ of over 200, they still can't do it!
However, compared to these, Lu Yuan noticed the key point in the Thunder Beast's words.
"You just said you received the Qilin's inheritance?"
Thunder Beast nodded.
"That's right! My ancestors were descendants of Qilin. When I was born, I unexpectedly experienced a primal phenomenon and by chance, I inherited the bloodline of my ancestors."
After hearing Thunder Beast's explanation, Lu Yuan's doubts not only did not disappear, but increased.
Does the Qilin truly exist in this world?
When Lu Yuan first transmigrated to this world, he had questions about this kind of issue.
Do the mythical beasts he knows really not exist in this world?
If it's true.
Why has no one in this world ever heard of the names of mythical beasts like dragons and phoenixes?
There is not even any record of these mythical beasts in ancient books.
But what if it's fake?
Why do pet cubs, after experiencing the baptism of mythology, inherit bloodlines that become the names of the mythical beasts they are familiar with?
These two points are contradictory and logically untenable.
Lu Yuan was stunned by the Thunder Beast's answer.
"Of course it exists!"
After speaking, Thunder Beast paused for a moment, then added, "Or rather, it once existed."
Such an ambiguous answer made Lu Yuan frown.
What does that mean?
