Now that Xiao An's companion beast has left, he himself is of no use anymore.
Xiao Yuncheng calmly instructed, "Don't worry about Xiao An."
The Xiao family never supports useless people. "As for those who guard the companion beasts, let them be punished on their own."
"yes."
Xiao An's appearance seemed to be just a fleeting moment; in less than half a month, he had already experienced a magnificent dream.
Then, he fell from the height in his dream, this time almost crushed into the mud.
His plight is heartbreaking, yet few people truly sympathize with him.
The companion beast that Xiao An summons can elevate him to a high position overnight, or it can render him nothing at all.
He was thrown into a dilapidated hut, worse than the place where he used to live as a servant.
His wounds throbbed, and the suffocating feeling in his chest forced him to breathe in small, shallow breaths.
Looking at the sliver of light shining through the hole in the roof, so bright and dazzling, Xiao An gave a bitter smile.
He originally thought he could become a superior person, able to command the wind and rain in this strange world and be omnipotent.
But his dream only lasted a short while before it vanished.
In truth, there was no point in prolonging this existence, but Xiao An was somewhat afraid of death, and under such circumstances, he was even more afraid.
He suddenly regretted why he had chanted the incantation that night.
Actually, that wasn't Xiao An's coming-of-age ceremony, at least not that night. After all, who would remember a servant's birthday?
Even Xiao An himself couldn't remember.
However, from the original owner's memories, he vaguely remembered that Xiao An was born on a winter day, accompanied by pure white snow.
That night, he inexplicably chanted the incantation, not really harboring any illusions, but simply feeling some jealousy and resentment.
How could Xiao Hechuan's background, appearance, and abilities not inspire envy?
Xiao An was just like that; he was insanely jealous. As Xiao Hechuan's birthday approached, everyone around him said things like, "Young Master will definitely become the head of the Xiao family in the future."
This made Xiao An secretly resentful. He had already transmigrated here, so why wasn't he given a good identity?
That night, he seemed to be possessed by a ghost, and he uttered the incantation to summon his companion beast. Then, a flash of white light illuminated almost the entire room.
Suddenly, a ferocious beast appeared ahead. Xiao An thought to himself, "He is the male protagonist of this world."
As the memories unfolded, a tear rolled down Xiao An's cheek, slid into his hair, and then disappeared.
He regretted it; he wished he hadn't chanted the incantation that night.
In that way, he could continue living an ordinary life, though life was tough, he would be healthy and wouldn't have to endure pain all the time.
As Xiao An pondered more and more, he drifted into a beautiful dream.
In his dream, he successfully formed a contract with the lion and became Xiao Yuncheng's adopted son. With his companion beast, he enjoyed great prestige in the Xiao family.
Afterwards, he shone brightly in the competition among aristocratic families, and from then on, he was surrounded by beautiful women, living a very happy life.
The once arrogant young master of a noble family, however, became like a coward, isolating himself from outsiders and hiding in the courtyard without ever going out.
Everything was exactly as Xiao An had imagined.
One day, suddenly many people died on the Xuanwu Continent, just like in the zombie movies he watched in modern times, and those who died would be resurrected.
This symptom gradually spread from the Xiao family, and Linbei City, where the Xiao family was located, soon became a ghost town.
