Chapter 100: Su Anyong's Suspicious Life!
Chapter 100: Su Anyong's Suspicious Life!
The hovering supercar that Su Anyong called 'Shadow Surfer' soon arrived at the familiar Heart of Wood entrance.
As soon as he got off the car and reached the entrance, Su Anyong was slightly stunned.
Looking at the figure standing at his doorstep, seemingly waiting, he blinked:
"Guan Qianshan? Aren't you working today? Why are you at my doorstep?"
Guan Qianshan coughed lightly, feeling slightly embarrassed, and then smiled:
"I'm just waiting for the boss to return!"
"Boss?"
Su Anyong gave him a suspicious glance and then exclaimed:
"Oh, right! You guys at Cloud Sky have another boss, don't you? It's rare for him to come. Alright, let's have a drink together after you're done with work. I'll go home first. This brat has been causing trouble while I was away."
Su Anyong spoke without waiting for a response.
However, before he could even step inside the gate, Su Ping, standing behind him, smiled:
"Guan Shu, do you have something to do this morning?"
"Two customers came for breeding, and although they didn't have an appointment, they showed interest in breeding. I estimate they'll come to pay the deposit in a few days!"
Guan Qianshan smiled, and then, amidst Su Anyong's suspicious and astonished gaze, he slowly opened the door to the Heart of Wood.
His good-for-nothing son had already walked past him, entering the gate with a carefree stride.
Su Anyong blinked, feeling momentarily dazed.
Looking at Guan Qianshan, who was still standing at the gate with a smile, and then at Su Ping, who seemed accustomed to the situation, Su Anyong raised his eyebrows and his eyelids twitched.
For no apparent reason, Su Anyong suddenly had a bad premonition.
He quickly turned to Guan Qianshan and asked suspiciously:
"Guan Qianshan, what's going on?"
Guan Qianshan smiled but didn't reply. Instead, Su Ping spoke up:
"It's nothing. I'm busy, and our business has been good lately. I can't handle it alone, and since Guan Shu had some issues, I asked him to come and help us!"
"Huh?"
Su Anyong was slightly taken aback.
Good business, overwhelmed.
These two keywords made Old Su's CPU struggle to process the information.
What could his unlucky son possibly be busy with?
The fact that their struggling business was still hanging on surprised him.
If it weren't for the old man's dying wish, he would have stopped this unprofitable breeding business long ago. How could it be doing well now?
Could this brat have sold off those little forest wolves? That would save the trouble of taking care of them!
And he's overwhelmed?
Subconsciously, Su Anyong pursed his lips. He followed and entered the house.
As expected, Guan Qianshan also walked in and closed the gate.
"What the hell are you up to, you brat?"
Su Ping glared at him and ignored him.
Asking now? Too late!
Su Ping didn't pay attention to him and headed straight home.
Su Anyong was truly stunned. He looked at Guan Qianshan:
"Guan Qianshan, what's going on?!"
Guan Qianshan shrugged. Before, Su Ping had instructed him not to say a word to Su Anyong!
After all, Su Ping was the one paying his salary.
Moreover, Su Ping had promised to breed a companion beast for his daughter. Although he didn't expect the evolved form, having a Heart of Wood would be good enough!
Under these circumstances, with the relationship they've had over the years, it was impossible for him to betray his boss.
Su Anyong? Not a close friend!
Seeing Guan Qianshan's curious expression, Anyong became interested.
"Playing dumb with me, huh? Fine, I'll see what you're up to! By the way, what about that mutated little forest wolf I gave you?"
Back in the living room, Su Anyong asked directly.
"Oh, you mean Xiao Qing? I was just about to ask where you got her from?"
A flash of light appeared in Su Ping's hand, and Xiao Qing, who was in the Beast Space, appeared by his side.
However, after seeing Xiao Qing clearly, Su Anyong seemed to be unable to react, and he subconsciously nodded.
The reason was simple; at this moment, the mutated little forest wolf was significantly larger than she had been a month ago.
The aura and size of her body indicated the growth of the little wolf pup over the past month.
"From a friend... What? Ordinary Ninth Rank?!"
Su Anyong stared at Xiao Qing in disbelief as she released a faint aura.
Although companion beasts of Beastmasters tend to level up faster,
it was still too fast.
From the Ordinary First Rank to the Ordinary Ninth Rank in just a month, this is an unlikely feat for a typical beastmaster.
But now, it's happening right before their eyes.
He couldn't help but believe it.
Most importantly, soon enough, Su Anyong frowned slightly.
This little Lynx was given to Su Ping by him, so he naturally knew what was going on.
Being able to mutate with a poison attribute, this mutated Lynx has great potential.
Furthermore, as long as they find a high-level breeder to unravel the mutation and evolution of this mutated Lynx, its future will be bright, and it might even surpass him as a main battle beast.
Su Anyong was well aware of the potential of such mutated beasts.
However, at this moment, he could sense that the aura of the little Lynx in front of him felt a bit off, a feeling that he was very familiar with yet unique.
Su Anyong's frown deepened, and he didn't even bother to answer Su Ping's question, staring intently at the little Lynx.
Seemingly sensing Su Anyong's gaze, Xiao Qing slightly hid behind Su Ping.
Su Anyong's innate ability, the not-so-common True Eye, couldn't analyze the specific condition of the little Lynx through observation and gaze.
Since Xiao Qing hadn't made a move and hadn't unleashed any abilities, he couldn't analyze the situation intuitively.
So, Su Anyong finally asked:
"Su Ping, is there something wrong with this mutated Lynx?"
"What's wrong with it?"
Su Ping pretended to be nonchalant, waving his hand as if he didn't know anything.
Then, he saw his father's slightly squinted gaze.
Suddenly, a light flashed in Su Anyong's eyes, and a surge of mental power caused Xiao Qing to react instantly.
Xiao Qing's heart started pounding, and the invisible wood attribute energy in the air instantly surged towards Xiao Qing's body!
Xiao Qing's fur became even greener, as if every strand was swaying endlessly.
Su Anyong witnessed this scene as well.
After spending so many years at the Heart of Wood, Su Anyong couldn't help but recognize the significance of this scene.
He straightened his body abruptly, gazing at Xiao Qing in disbelief:
"Heart of Wood?! Is it really the Heart of Wood?!"
Su Ping glared at the old man who had no sense of propriety. Now he's surprised?
He rubbed Xiao Qing's head with a smile on his face, nodded, but then shook his head casually:
"Yes, but also no. It's indeed the skill of the Heart of Wood, but due to Xiao Qing's mutation, this skill has transformed into the mutated skill 'Poisonous Heart of Wood', possessing all the effects of the Heart of Wood, and also imbued with poison!"
Then, he didn't continue, as Su Anyong stared at him intently.
His eyes widened, as if questioning how Su Ping had achieved this.
However, the situation had changed, and when Su Ping had mentioned it on the phone, this old man hadn't believed him. Now, Su Ping wouldn't satisfy his curiosity.
But it was clear that at this moment, Su Anyong truly didn't have the leisure to engage in a battle of wits with his son, and he finally asked:
"Did you perfect the Heart of Wood's Mana Potion formula?"
"Mhm."
Su Ping rubbed Xiao Qing's head.
"Did you hit the 1% chance, or is this little mutated Lynx truly gifted?"
Read the flawless version on Book 69! 6=9+Book_Bar first release novel.
Su Anyong looked at Xiao Qing.
And Xiao Qing raised her head, finally finding a sense of existence.
Su Ping glanced at her:
"Xiao Qing's talent is evident, but I also casually perfected the Heart of Wood's formula."
Casually?
Perfected the formula?
Su Anyong blinked, looking at his calm and composed son, and for a moment, he couldn't quite react.
Was this kid telling the truth?
When he was at the same stage, he had tried to perfect the Heart of Wood's Mana Potion formula countless times.
The result was evident; Su Anyong lacked talent in beast cultivation.
After a few failed attempts, he had given up on wasting his energy on it.
This was the lifelong wish of his father, Su Ping's grandfather.
Otherwise, this breeding base wouldn't have been directly named after the 'Heart of Wood'.
And now, after just a month of his absence, such a short time, he returned to find that his son, who had just graduated a month ago, had casually perfected the formula.
No one would believe such a story.
Su Anyong was no exception.
So when Su Ping spoke, he didn't think in that direction at all, and at most, he thought that his son had some minor self-righteous improvements.
But now it seems like it's not quite the case.
Su Anyong paused, then continued to ask, "To what extent has it been perfected?"
Su Ping naturally had to keep some things from the others, but facing his own father, Su Ping clicked his tongue and pretended to ponder before calmly replying, "I can't say exactly what extent, but none of the Forest Wolves I've bred have failed!"
Su Anyong pursed his lips, and after a long silence, he spoke with a dry voice, "How many have you bred?"
This question actually required Su Ping to do some calculations:
"Let me think, we had over twenty Forest Wolves at home, all of which have been bred. Later, I bought another twenty, making it a round number. These new ones haven't started breeding yet.
But among the guests we received, quite a few were brought in. These past few days, I've been focusing on breeding Old Sha's evolution, consuming a lot of resources and requiring additional expenses. So, I've bred a few more, probably around ten in total!"
Su Ping nodded, and then he saw his father's eyes, which were already starting to stare.
The latter blinked and then incredulously said, "So, in such a short time, you've bred over forty Forest Wolves' Heart of Wood? Not a single failure? All of them awakened!"
Su Ping nodded, "Yes, if we calculate the breeding success rate, theoretically, it should be over ninety percent, right?"
"Holy sht!"
Old Su didn't speak again, but he suddenly felt like something was off.
What was off?
Soon, Su Anyong seemed to realize something and stared at Su Ping, "You just said you were breeding Old Sha's evolution?"
Su Ping nodded and pretended to complain, "Yes, didn't I tell you before? It consumed a lot of resources, and I even spent all the money I earned! Su Anyong, aren't you doing well now? Aren't you rich? Old Sha is also part of our family, so it's no problem for you to contribute some money."
Clearly, his son's pretentious attitude was as if the words 'smug' and 'showing off' were written all over his face.
But Su Anyong had no other thoughts at this moment.
Money wasn't an issue for him.
When it came to breeding beasts, it wasn't something that could be solved with a small amount of money.
So, his current daze had nothing to do with the money.
Even if money could easily facilitate evolution, breeders wouldn't be so valuable.
If it were before, and if Su Anyong had heard this, especially if his son dared to use Old Sha as an evolutionary subject, he would have given Su Ping a good beating.
But now...
Old Guan's business, his son's claim of breeding dozens of Forest Wolves' Heart of Wood...
These words seemed to add a great deal of credibility to Su Ping's statement.
But Su Anyong seemed to suddenly realize something, "You said Old Sha's evolutionary form is something new, right? Not a Forest Wolf or a Spirit Wolf, but an entirely new form that hasn't appeared before?"
This time, Su Ping didn't answer, he just smiled.
Then, Su Anyong stood up abruptly, rushed past Old Guan who had just entered, and sprinted at a hundred-meter dash speed towards their backyard.
Su Ping leisurely got up, rubbed Xiao Qing, and then led Xiao Qing calmly towards the forest of Forest Wolves.
As Su Ping slowly moved from the living room to the backyard, Su Anyong, who had rushed over earlier, was now lying on the ground.
On top of him was Old Sha, whose appearance had changed significantly, but he still recognized Su Anyong clearly.
Old Sha pinned him to the ground, and its soft, plant-like tongue licked Su Anyong's cheeks repeatedly.
At this moment, his father lay on the ground, allowing Old Sha to do as it pleased, his mind blank, completely dazed, staring at Old Sha in front of him.
Su Ping wasn't surprised by this scene; instead, he squatted next to his father's head, rubbed Old Sha's head, and smiled as he watched Su Anyong, who seemed to be dreaming, and finally said, "Su Anyong, do you remember what you said in the car earlier?"
