"A time-manipulating cub?"
Lu Yuan frowned and gave Wu Qiushan a deep look.
This world contains a variety of elements.
Besides the most basic elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and lightning, there are many special attributes, such as Xiao Yi's healing talent.
And time-related talents that can manipulate time are extremely precious.
According to historical records, only a tiny bit of explanation appeared two hundred years ago, which is enough to illustrate the rarity of time-related talents.
But Wu Qiushan actually came to our door to buy a time-type baby?
I haven't heard of anyone in Yandu who has awakened a time-related talent!
Meeting Lu Yuan's questioning and wary gaze, Wu Qiushan knew he might have misunderstood and quickly explained.
"Mr. Lu, please don't overthink it! To be honest, my son awakened his time-based beast-taming talent a year ago. I was worried that it would attract the covetousness of other forces, so I deliberately suppressed the matter. Apart from a few people at the time, no one else knows about it."
Speaking of this, Wu Qiushan looked worried, and his back hunched over involuntarily.
Logically speaking, he should be overjoyed that his son has awakened a rare time-related talent.
After all, time-based talents are extremely powerful, and once they can grow up, they will surely become a powerful figure.
But the prerequisite is that they can grow up smoothly.
Every year, there are talented people who awaken rare and precious beast-taming talents, but only a handful of them eventually become powerful and famous; most die young.
The intrigue and backstabbing within this place are countless, not to mention the fact that this one person with a time-based talent only appears once every two hundred years.
If the news gets out, the eyes of the entire Ling'an Continent will probably be focused on the Wu family.
Ideally, the Wu family would become a lackey of a powerful force, but if they are not careful, they could become victims in the power struggle, and the entire Wu family would be destroyed as a result.
so.
When the results of the awakening came out, Wu Qiushan used all his connections and money to suppress the matter with great difficulty.
Moreover, to maintain secrecy, his son has been cultivating his beast-taming talent for over a year now, but has still not formed a contract with a beast.
It's not just because time-type cubs are rare, but also because of fear.
But nothing stays hidden forever.
Sooner or later, people will find out that I've awakened a time-related talent.
He needed to improve the overall strength of the Wu family before that, which is why he spared no expense to bid for cultivation techniques and spiritual artifacts at the auction.
But most importantly, we need to let our son grow up on his own.
At the very least, one must have the ability to protect oneself.
then.
After witnessing Lu Yuan's amazing abilities, Wu Qiushan decided to ask Lu Yuan to buy a time-related cub.
“I know that time-type pet cubs are extremely rare, so it doesn’t matter if the Divine Beast Pavilion doesn’t have them. However, this matter concerns the life and death of my Wu family, so I hope Mr. Lu will keep it a secret for me.”
Wu Qiushan's tone carried a hint of pleading.
He visited countless pet stores over the past year, but still never encountered a time-type cub.
If even the Divine Beast Pavilion is not there, then there is probably no hope left.
After hearing Wu Qiushan's words, Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow.
"Who said the Divine Beast Pavilion doesn't have time-type pet cubs?"
"What?!"
Wu Qiushan suddenly raised his head and stared at Lu Yuan with wide eyes.
"The Divine Beast Pavilion has all kinds of pet cubs with different attributes, but they're all just time-based talents, that's no problem for me! However..."
Lu Yuan paused, then slowly raised his head to look directly into Wu Qiushan's eyes.
"I need to see your son before I consider whether to sell or not."
"no problem!"
Wu Qiushan agreed without hesitation and immediately picked up the phone to make the call!
He spoke a few words into the phone with an unyielding tone, then gave the address of the Divine Beast Pavilion before quickly hanging up.
"Please wait a moment, Mr. Lu, my son will be there shortly!"
Wu Qiushan smiled at Lu Yuan, with a hint of ingratiation.
I never expected this!
He searched for a whole year, visiting all the well-known pet stores, and finally found a pet cub with a time-related talent!
As long as my son successfully contracts with a pet cub, and then devotes all his efforts to nurturing it, it will definitely grow up smoothly!
Then he won't have to live in constant fear of others finding out about his time-based talent.
Thinking of this, Wu Qiushan's gaze toward Lu Yuan became even more intense.
...
About twenty minutes later.
A young man with a buzz cut and a cheerful appearance pushed open the door and entered the Divine Beast Pavilion.
Following the instructions over the phone, I arrived at the store's reception room.
"Dad! Why did you call me here in such a hurry?"
As soon as Wu Mingxu entered the reception room, he saw his father, who was always strict with him, wearing a smile on his face, and he was momentarily stunned.
"Mingxu, come quick, come quick!"
Wu Qiushan waved and turned to Lu Yuan with a smile, introducing, "Mr. Lu, this is my son, Wu Mingxu."
After saying that.
He then said to Wu Mingxu, "This is Mr. Lu Yuan, the manager of the Divine Beast Pavilion."
It was only then that Wu Mingxu noticed a young man sitting opposite his father, who looked to be about the same age as him, and he was even more shocked.
The slightly ingratiating smile on his father's face was directed at a boy who was about the same age as him?!
Was he drunk and confused, or was he still dreaming and not fully awake?
How is this possible?!
Seeing his son staring blankly like a wooden stake, Wu Qiushan couldn't help but raise his hand and pat him.
"What are you daydreaming about, you brat? Hurry up and greet Mr. Lu!"
"..."
Wu Mingxu was jolted back to his senses by the powerful blow, but he was speechless for a moment.
Ultimately, under the intimidating gaze of Wu Qiushan, he nodded to Lu Yuan and gave a dry, forced smile as he greeted him.
Seeing his unwilling look, Wu Qiushan was so angry that he was about to raise his hand again.
Lu Yuan waved his hand, not caring at all, and just looked Wu Mingxu up and down.
Wu Mingxu felt a shiver run through him as he looked into Lu Yuan's sharp eyes.
I don't know why, but I have a feeling that I'm completely seen through by others, inside and out.
Just as he was about to give up, Lu Yuan withdrew his gaze.
Before Wu Mingxu could even breathe a sigh of relief, he heard Lu Yuan suddenly speak to him.
