Magic Capital, Advanced Beastmaster Academy.
Inside the personal villa belonging to the esteed Sang Sheng, a woman sat cross-legged atop the rooftop terrace.
Even though it was deep autumn, on the cusp of winter, her courtyard remained lush and green, full of vibrant life.
As the woman sat there, with each breath she took, the surrounding greenery seed to slowly unfurl its branches and leaves. Bathed in the rising sun, it appeared lush and verdant.
Finally, the woman slowly opened her eyes, her indifferent pupils gazing into the rising sun without the slightest hint of being dazzled.
At this mont, the woman’s entire body trembled slightly.
It was as if, in that instant, she transford into a gigantic plant. Countless branches and leaves followed the rhythm of her breathing, swaying with her thoughts.
This continued for more than half an hour before she returned to her normal state.
The woman stood up and walked back to the first floor.
In the dining room, her breakfast had already been prepared.
It was a bowl of ’vegetable salad.’
Even after reaching her cultivation Realm, her dietary requirents had greatly diminished. Especially when practicing the Forest of Myriad Forms ditation thod, she could draw sufficient nutrients from sunlight and oxygen alone.
However, the woman had still ford this habit.
Though called a ’vegetable salad,’ the dish actually contained no salad dressing, only various plant leaves and twigs. So were edible, while others, strictly speaking, weren’t considered food.
Carefully savoring the taste and texture of each plant fiber aided her cultivation and her understanding of Pet Beasts.
A habit ford over many years wasn’t going to change.
Unfortunately, today, the woman seed sowhat distracted.
She was already aware of Qin Chuan’s situation. Such a significant event had occurred in Linzhou, sothing she herself had not anticipated. But it had happened. Getting angry or blaming soone was not in her character.
Of course, the matter now seed to be resolved to Perfection, so she didn’t need to intervene.
Only now, she had started to doubt sothing.
A phone call this morning, after Qin Erlong and Qin Chuan had called to apologize, brought her so news.
That young man from Linzhou, Su Ping, now apparently had a ’second grandfather’ surnad Leng.
The woman found herself speechless.
Could her words truly have beco a self-fulfilling prophecy? Would Qin Erlong eventually call, claiming that young man was the illegitimate child of the Legend of the Holy Dragon?
Shaking her head, the woman let out a helpless sigh.
However, she wasn’t particularly angry, even though she had indeed felt a surge of fury upon hearing Qin Chuan’s words.
But after calming down for a mont, she considered it might even be a good thing. For Qin Chuan, this was indeed a major setback in his life. All his past efforts and the company he had built were now in ruins. But in truth, to her, that blasted Dachuan Real Estate ant nothing; it wasn’t even worth a sideways glance. At least this had quieted him down and, at the sa ti, removed his inclination to stay in contact with those from Eagle Country. This was far better than him potentially committing a catastrophic mistake in the future.
Thus, she wasn’t really angry.
Her thoughts now turned to how she might nd her relationship with that young man.
Previously, when Qin Erlong and Xiao Xue had been optimistic about him, the woman hadn’t particularly cared but hadn’t objected either.
But now, even though she still found it all rather surreal, she couldn’t help but revise her assessnt of this young man—whom she had never even t—upwards again, for what felt like the umpteenth ti.
With that in mind, the woman made a phone call to Qin Xiaoxue.
"Xiao Xue, Su Ping’s second Pet Beast, you ntioned before that it’s of the Necromancy Series, right?"
"Ah? Yes... yes, that’s right..."
Qin Xiaoxue’s voice sounded sowhat guilty. In her view, Su Ping had chosen his second Pet Beast from the Necromancy Series because of her suggestion. She had previously told Su Ping about her desire to try two ditation thods from Magic Capital: ’Forest of Myriad Forms’ and ’Union of Myriad Transformations.’ This ant his second Pet Beast would need to be either a pure Wood Elent, Plant Type Pet Beast, or an Undead Pet Beast. But undoubtedly, this was against the rules.
Now, hearing the old lady suddenly inquire, she instantly thought she was about to be reprimanded. Qin Xiaoxue also wondered who could have told the old lady about this.
However, unexpectedly, the anticipated reprimand from the old lady didn’t co. Instead, she just nodded and continued with a smile, "Vacation starts in a month. Don’t forget to tell Su Ping to co to Magic Capital then to see your Woodhead’s Evolution..."
"Yeah, I’ve already told Su Ping."
"Alright, that’s all. Go to class. You’re entering the Linhai Secret Realm today, right? Be prepared and don’t get hurt."
"Mmm, I know, don’t worry, Grandma!"
After hanging up, Qin Xiaoxue scratched her head, a little confused about what her grandmother ant.
anwhile, the woman, having hung up, made another call.
Shortly after, a woman walked into the dining room, "Headmistress."
Upon seeing the newcor, the woman smiled lightly, "Xiao Qin, do a favor. Go to Linzhou and deliver sothing for ."
"Yes!"
...
Su Ping waved at the oddly-shaped aircraft as it slowly ascended into the sky.
In just an instant, the Sky-splitter disappeared from view.
It’s to be expected, after all.
