evening.
After finally seeing off the last guest, Lu Yuan collapsed into a chair, exhausted.
We didn’t expect the auction to have such a big impact. Usually, we only get two or three customers a day, but today dozens of people came in one go!
It exhausted him, Zheng Meng, and Mu Ruxing.
"You've worked hard today, go home and get some rest."
"Okay! I'll come earlier tomorrow."
Zheng Meng smiled slightly, greeted the two of them, and then packed her things and left.
After she left, Lu Yuan instructed Mu Ruxing to close the shop, returned to his room, and went directly into the Beast Taming Space.
"Eee!"
Xiao Yi ran over and was about to hug Lu Yuan, but when she met his warning look, she hugged his arm instead.
Lu Yuan smiled and patted her head.
It wasn't that he disliked Xiao Yi being close to him, but rather that Xiao Yi was too charming right now, so it was better to keep a little distance.
"Where's the red phosphorus? Is it still incubating eggs?"
Lu Yuan looked around but didn't see Chi Lin, so he guessed that the little guy was probably still incubating his eggs.
"Eee!"
Xiao Yi nodded and pointed to the bushes not far away.
Lu Yuan looked in the direction she was pointing and sure enough saw a red tail tip.
"Red phosphorus, stop incubating! How about I demonstrate how to fry an egg for you right here?"
Upon hearing this, Chilin's little head immediately popped out from the bushes.
"Hiss~"
It curled its tail around the golden egg and quickly crawled to Lu Yuan's feet, its eyes filled with longing.
Goodness.
They've been eyeing this golden egg for a long time.
Lu Yuan shook his head with amusement.
"Don't rush, let me find a suitable pot first!"
"Snap!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a faint cracking sound suddenly rang out.
Lu Yuan looked in the direction of the sound and found that it was coming from the golden egg!
"What happened?"
Red Phosphorus also sensed something was wrong and gently placed the golden egg on the ground with its tail.
Lu Yuan took two steps forward and flipped the golden egg over.
A sudden crack appeared on the golden egg, from which wisps of spiritual energy leaked out.
"They hatched?!"
Lu Yuan was overjoyed and looked at the golden egg with anticipation in his eyes.
Unexpectedly, the thing simply developed a crack and then returned to its completely still state.
Is that all?
Are you kidding me?!
Lu Yuan was immediately furious.
If he hadn't been curious about what might hatch from this golden egg, he would have already given it to Chilin and Xiaoyi to satisfy their cravings!
We were so generous in leaving it for so many days, and all it did was crack and it was ruined?
"Since you're so useless, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Lu Yuan, who was in a fit of anger, immediately rolled up his sleeves, ready to smash the egg with violence!
But they were stopped.
"Red Phosphorus, why are you stopping me?"
Lu Yuan looked at the red phosphorus blocking the golden egg with a puzzled expression.
Has this little guy been eyeing this egg for ages?
Why did they suddenly stop him?
"Hiss!"
Red Phosphorus flicked its tongue, its little head shaking uncontrollably from side to side.
"You mean you want me to keep this golden egg?" Lu Yuan guessed.
"Hiss~"
Red phosphorus nodded.
Lu Yuan frowned slightly, glanced at the red phosphorus, then turned to stare at the golden egg, and finally nodded in compromise.
"Fine! Since you insist on keeping it, I'll spare its life this time!"
Upon hearing this, Red Phosphorus affectionately nuzzled Lu Yuan with its head, then carefully curled up the golden egg with its tail and put it back into the bushes.
Seeing Chi Lin's sudden change in demeanor, Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly.
It is said that monsters have a special ability to sense each other. Could this golden egg really be something special that makes Crimson Phosphorus take it seriously?
"interesting."
Lu Yuan smiled, a hint of anticipation rising in his heart.
...
The next day.
Lu Yuan emerged from the Beast Taming Space feeling refreshed.
Although only one night has passed in the real world, time flows ten times faster in the training room than outside. He has already cultivated in it for over a hundred hours.
"The training room is truly a wonderful thing. It was all thanks to it that I was able to raise my Beast Tamer level to the tenth rank of Xuanzhen in just a few days!"
Such rapid upgrade efficiency would probably scare everyone if word got out!
Feeling the immense spiritual power within his body, Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel overjoyed.
After these days of arduous training, not only has his Beastmaster level improved, but more importantly, his understanding of sword-drawing techniques has also deepened.
Even without nurturing his sword, he can now defeat combat puppets below the second tier of Earth Spirit using his own abilities alone.
If combined with the Deliberate ability, it will definitely be even stronger!
"Bang bang bang!"
A sudden, urgent knocking interrupted Lu Yuan's thoughts.
Lu Yuan frowned slightly.
It's only seven o'clock in the morning. Mu Ruxing is still fast asleep in bed, and Zheng Meng certainly wouldn't come this early. So who could it be?
The knocking grew louder, and after confirming that Xiao Yi and Chi Lin inside the Beast Taming Space were awake, Lu Yuan quickly responded.
Stop knocking! I'm coming!
The sounds outside stopped abruptly. Lu Yuan pressed his face against the door and peeked through the crack. He discovered that it was Zhou Yan outside, followed by a completely unfamiliar face.
After hesitating for a moment, Lu Yuan opened the shop door.
"Oh! Manager Lu, you're finally open!" Zhou Yan said anxiously.
"Mr. Zhou, it's not open for business yet. Can you come back later if you need anything?" Lu Yuan said casually, his gaze sweeping over the man behind Zhou Yan.
The other person had stern features and dark skin. Upon closer inspection, one could find several scars, some old and some new, indicating that he was a ruthless individual.
Especially those sharp, eagle-like eyes, which seemed to carry a chilling, murderous aura capable of freezing a person.
Just one glance.
Lu Yuan was certain that this person's identity was extraordinary.
"I'm sorry, Manager Lu, but I really can't wait any longer!"
With a desperate expression, Zhou Yan grabbed Lu Yuan's hand and pleaded, "The situation is urgent, please save me, Manager Lu!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan frowned.
"What happened?"
Zhou Yan did not answer directly, but instead beckoned the man behind him to enter the store.
"Hello Mr. Lu, I am Yang Lin, the captain of the third security team of the Yandu branch of Shenwu Pavilion."
"Please, save my tamed beast!"
